I think in general the holiday events for 2018 were better than 2019. 2018 introduced minigames for Starlight and Hatching-tide. It makes no sense to me that they would create these minigames and then not even at least bring them back every year as something to do even if they don't have rewards. It's just wasted effort.
2018 Halloween was definitely better than 2019 imo, though 2019 had the moogle carriage to save it. 2019 easter was just running around and tedious, which is what events are trending towards. Moonfire at least used to be consistently good though the past two years have been pretty bad, with 2021's moonfire faire being even worse than 2020's during the height of the pandemic somehow. Heavensturn has always sucked and will continue to suck.
