I played the Rising event yesterday together with my mom and it was really wholesome and the letters from the team were so heartfelt and awesome to read. The little moogle minigame was fun, too! Congrats on 10 years, CBU3!!! We love FFXIV!!!

I really enjoyed the event as well, and the letters were very sweet.
The Rising event was very bland, very mediocre for a 10-year-anniversary event, that's all I have to say.
I was disappointed that instead of writing three short pep-talks for the three different prominent NPCs you're told to choose from, they just did their usual thing, gave the player a fake choice, and then if you don't pick Momodi, the game says "no, you picked the wrong one, let's go talk to Momodi". Like, c'mon. It's the anniversary celebration. It's the TENTH anniversary celebration.
YoshiP's message was very kind, however. I enjoyed that.
Agreed, it was very cute.
I enjoy them every year. Think I only ever missed one. Despite my gripes and what I say around here, I can always appreciate a "thank you for playing".
I loved the event to. The Rising isnt always great, but I love to be reminded that the events in 1.0 were a thing, and its always great to See YoshiP pull a Kojima and put himself into the game, if but just briefly.
And the Phoenix Mount is awesome.
Ill agree this is one of the Shortcomings, it is pretty annoying to go full telltale and present us with choice, just for it not to matter, there is only one choice and they write it to ONLY go to that one choice.
Illusion of choice is very dumb.
my partner and I did it and enjoyed it as well. It is nice to hear from people we have "met" through the game and is one of the enjoyable parts of the event. the letter forest was interesting, would have preferred more, but it is what it is.
not sure there was a fake choice. I mean I was not under the impression there WOULD be a choice, I have played mmo's long enough to know all roads lead to where ever the writers want us to go. choice is an illusion
Story/Lore Strong
Activity Weak
The toy box game is fun but with the message of the story there should be some group content.
I agree! This year's rising was really fun, from the multiple story questlines to the letters. I especially liked the new minigame: funnest one yet! Convinced me to make a toybox for my house
