I wasn't able to participate in the event because I had to take care of a sick family-member and couldn't afford a sub (because of said family member) at that time. But yeah, blame me for rather helping someone out with nearly everything than playing a video game and talking to a few NPC's 'cause that's so much more work, right? Some people, I swear...

I'd love to get the hair style since I really like it and I'm hoping it will be in the mog store someday. Just be happy that you were able to pay for your sub and get the hairstyle for free instead of pointing fingers and calling those lazy who just weren't able to get it in the first place. After all it's not your money we're going to spend for it.

I say no to Mogstation. They have these limited time event for a reason. To be exclusives.

I know my gf really wanted the 2015 Halloween set and they did release them to my surprise (so obviously i bought her the glam and mount) but I think in a sense its slap in the face for us who are dedicated and make sure our subs are up to date to take part in these events.

While rest of you, who are lazy or whatever can just buy these items for €5? Why even bother do the event to begin with in that case

Nobody blames anyone here. This is in the end just a fricking game. If we going by that logic and you value a virtual item so highly, maybe should've asked a friend to pay your sub and have them do it for you?

Because Lightning was a crossover event and came only into the mogshop because there was a thread every months asking for the return of the Lightning event. And after they brought the event again, the threads still popped up again 1 month after it.

The Gold Saucer event is an every year recurring event, which mean you have to wait 1 year and it will only come maximal 1 or 2 weeks sooner to the shop.

Of course it's just a game and because of that I rather spent my time on another person than an ingame item. Nowhere I said that I "value a virtual item so highly", I just would be happy if I was able to get it someday - even with money. So... I don't really get what you want from me lol.

And as for the "slap in the face"-part, I'm pretty sure you're not only keeping your sub up to date to get a few event items, but to play the game on a (nearly) daily basis. As someone said before, getting the item within the event isn't a lot of work. It's just a way to get it earlier than those who weren't able to participate in said events. Again: Be happy you got the item right on time for free with a little story tied around, instead of having to pay and get it a year after the event had happened.

Real life gives plenty of second chances through auction and resale websites.

People asked me for ages how I got my broom before they released it on the Mogstation. Then they did and others were able to get it. Doesn't change the fact I did the quest on all my chars at that time to get it. I don't really see making anything available later on as any sort of slap in my face for being lucky to be subbed when it was going on.

My thoughts on this type of topic: Who cares if they throw it onto Mogstation. It's a glamour/mount/hairstyle change, and not game breaking. Does it make it any less special to me? Nope, not in the slightest. I got it for paying just my sub and doing the event, if someone else wants it after it's on Mogstation, then whatever. I don't have to pay that additional amount because they want it, it's up to them to decide to pay that amount themselves.

So I just came back from a long long break and I see this haircut on someone else and it is not shown in my haircuts at all. Anyways, I have researched about the hairstyle and it looks like I’m in the bunch that missed out on this. Does anybody have any word on when this haircut will be available either on the Mog Station or in any other future events?

Uh, yea sure you don't get a lot of 2nd chances for certain things but saying you never get second chances is complete crap, plenty of people get cured or go into remission for cancer, people get struck by lightning and live, etc etc. I would say these fall under a second chance in life.

This is the very definition of elitism, this isn't like playing the game in 1.0 and getting a non-obtainable mount now or an item/something for beta testing the game back in the days, it's just a hairstyle who cares?

Nice necro lol
