And at the very least, before they at least adhered to the events' themes. A gigas weapon and a tonberry knife don't exactly scream 'Valentoine's', no matter what story this event'll have. I didn't need to know what was up with Yin and Yang to be able to tell at a glance that they were the All Saints' Wake award because, ya know. Ghosts. These things are thematically detached

It could of been a proper hug or kiss emote... but nope. To much asked.

Name one (1) game with a better St. Valentione's Day event than FFXIV (that isn't FFXI or some other FF game it possibly appears in that I don't know about).
You can't so stop complaining.

Kind of wanted a new outfit but I’m still excited.

If you have the eyes more on the rewards rather than on the event itself, then this is not for you.

I mean, we can ask SE to pull a cash shop valentines event like ArchAge did and have new themed items exclusively sold there during the event...

Hopefully the event itself is fun and has a cute story. The rewards are always kind of secondary anyway, though it is a shame that they don't seem to do event posters anymore - I was starting to get a nice collection going.

Disappointed.

Would have at least liked 1 glam item which all classes can use.

Even if they had reused one of the NPC outfits, it would have been better than class specific items.

I suppose apartment/house decorating enthusiasts at least have something.

Gonna pass on this event.

Can't say anything about the game play until I've seen it but IMO getting a mount is better than not getting one. Last year's love maze was awesome. I also liked completing the meta achievement for seasonal events in WoW.

How would people react if the event actually has yandere stuff, and that's why the rewards are a knife and a sword?

No better way to say "I love you" than with a good stabbing I guess.
