Was it in a terrible state, ofc, did it improve over time before 2.0 yes. Was there other games I could have played, sure. I wanted to play 1.0 and i dont deserve a trophy for that and i play it up till the end. The fact they give us a lower sub is more than they need to do. The title/the rewards are 10 years old. You really want to gate keep that. Its a game not real life. People are so for SE taking things out of the game.

You have a right to that opinion, but not everyone shares it, myself; obviously being one of them. And you can label it as gate keeping all you want, but that is not what it is. It is simply having or not having been there for it.

My point regarding the lottery and the Olympics is such that if you weren't there for it you aren't entitled to past rewards.

I agree with you, but if you love the game. How does denying the new players or people that just need a break for a while benefit the game. How does it help final fantasy grow?

Legacy items and status are the only Timelocked content that should never be opened to anyone.
Is the only form of exclusivity that should be off the reach of any new players.

Now fix the Feast and let me grind my Hellhounds, thank you.

To take away the pride of people who supported this game during a period that was turbulent is not right. Should I be a astronaut because Jeff Bezos went up in space and the thanked me as a Amazon customer for paying for it? To me it's disrespectful to try and take a piece of gaming history from those who stuck through it. It trivializes those who stayed and put in the time. I didn't stay and I am okay with not earning a title or tattoo. It's IMOP

But at the same time SE keeps adding rewards from older saisonal events to the store for those who missed it.

And yet you guys sound almost like children who are afraid that theire parents takes away theire shiny exclusive toy and gives it to all the kids in the room.

Imagine for one moment please:
Even if every single player out there had the same archivements, titles or mounts, your character would still be unique to you. And thats because of the unique memories you share with it.

I mean, I'd be 110% okay with this as long as I got a ride to space and back. :p Just one. Being a temporary astronaut would be fantastic.

I don't think they were OWED anything but citing that there are a lot of things that were rewarded for it doesn't mean that the requirements for them were any less unique.

Yeah, you get a lot of cool things for having stuck with it. Nobody is asking for MORE stuff .. except apparently people who want to fulfill the literal letter of the achievement without the context which was the entire point making it special.

Considering China is really it's own thing, basically "franchised" FFXIV.. that's them. Am I surprised a market that values profit above all else decided to sell absolutely everything? No. This doesn't change what the original intent of "legacy" stuff was though.

I'm fine with legacy achievements being achievable again but only if the Legacy version of the product becomes a playable product again and they earn it through playing through it like it should be. The mounts earned and carried over... yea, I stopped caring about that years ago especially with everything else they added to the mogstation.

Great.. cause that's very likely not happening.

The whole idea is moot. This is almost certainly never happening and we are likely never getting "FFXIV classic" so that it'll be an option. Yes.

I'm not sure why you'd even say that as it has been said a few times.

And what's hostile about rewarding people who supported the company in a bad time?

It wasn't a smart decision for sure, but it's not like anyone knew it was going to happen or that they were going to be rewarded. It was severely after the fact.

I understand there's a faction in here who likes to overblow any negative "corporation evil!" thing they can.. but this really isn't some evil gatcha/gambling hook they're exploiting.

I'll boldy claim the same for both systems.
But you can't in good faith equate the two.

I see this argument all too often from entitled players, in regard to mounts/titles/glamour from both Legacy FFXIV and the Feast. In both cases a small minority of the players supported a game/mode that was not widely popular at the time and provided feedback that SE has used to improve each, and in both cases entitled players have demanded that they be given access to those same rewards. I’m glad SE has (for the most part) ignored the entitled players and continued to keep this stuff exclusive.
