Starlight Celebration 2024

I can't remember every event in 10 years but I don't think there have been many we've gotten orchestrion rolls from. Usually you'd have to buy those when they were available with event currency from a vendor. So it's kind of nice to get one as a reward. A framer's kit could have been nice, too, but maybe they can use that idea for next year.

The mugs are cute I guess.

The event is always trash

I think the barding is cute, and I'm curious what the song will end up being
The housing decorations will be nice for people that want to decorate their homes or apartments / fc rooms for the holidays

I really don't know what SE could do to make people happy, because it seems like no matter what people will always complain lol

I've seen GW2 mentioned and I like their events, but it's the same thing every year whereas here it's a continuous storyline with recurring characters

It'd be cool of SE to add more to do, that I agree with. It'd be fun to have snowball fights or other things to get in the mood. These could be in the form of fates either in the cities or in some of the starter zones

I didn't notice the link when I first read this and thought it was satire.

I don’t understand SE giving housing items as event rewards when so many players do not even have housing and apartment storage space is so limited. Wouldn’t be so bad if we had an armoire for housing items.

I actually don't want anymore 'Christmas' glams. I mean, can only actually wear one at any given time and already have several to choose from.

Anyone remember when events used to have real stories that were engaging? They were like that back in ARR, HW, and SB.

I miss them.

Annual event rewards were low effort after the second or third year. Why are people only complaining now?

Complaining just for the fun of it, it seems. This is not entirely out of line with past events, if anything we're getting slightly more than usual events, just because it isn't a glam or mount doesn't mean it's inherently lazy. The issue here is that it doesn't interest you personally.
