So the festival...kinda...meh...

I guess I shouldn't be all that upset, it's only a bit depressing. Although, I will cut them some a lot of slack, because I understand that they're still hard at work at developing 2.0

What I hope is that the future, we'll have not only lvl 1 activities, but high lvl stuff as well, for other types of gear, fun weapons, furniture, etc.

OR, add other activities/Mini games Like FFXI's Festival. (I loved the chocobo mini game XD)

What kind of stuff would you like to see for future festivals?

I agree it sucked, however, I hate almost every festival activity that SE comes up with and almost never do them... So I may not be the best judge though. I only fully completed this one in case the rumor that you can spend achievement points in 2.0 turns out to be true.

I was happy with it and I'm happy with most of the seasonal events SE comes up with :)
They are fun and available to everyone - which is the reason why these events HAVE to be "lvl 1 stuff" - new or low level players are supposed to be able to complete them as well, not only people with all classes at 50.

I enjoy how interactive they are, like luring bombs into the fire, this year keeping them away from the balloons or traveling all over Eorzea to find all the easter eggs (and fight monsters too which weren't all low lvl!), solving riddles imps pose on us etc. :o
I was only really disappointed at the events that were done by talking to an NPC, getting the item from him and that's it (like the princess day one).

you know SE doesnt have to do these right? i myself have really enjoyed the summer event, the yukatas are great and the fire dance in infectious whenever you use /countdown around a group of people

What I hated the most was the music tbh, it bugged me so much I did this.


The nostalgia almost made it fun for a few min.

Why are you here?

Why do people expect seasonal events to OMG knock their socks off awesome? That's not what they're there for. Each one just a small diversion to break up the monotony of same old same old in/around town every now and then.

I'm glad it was a little less time-consuming than last year's, TBH. It felt about right, but more optional minigames or activities might've been nice (if not for the need to focus on 2.0).

I thought it was nicely done, while i am not the fans of the music. The giant bombs certainly gave some thrills to low level players and it certainly does gives the vibes that summer is actually hot.

Yukatas are certainly nice additions.

Because I can't find the motivation to do Blacksmithing at the moment, and I have nothing better to do. I guess you're trying to tell me that we don't share the same views and you're offended by my opinions though. I'll make sure to make all of my posts in the future to be hand written poetry boasting praise and glory to the wonder that is SE in the future though to make sure you and I never run into this problem again. Because your opinion means a lot to me and things just wouldn't be the same if you thought poorly of me.

OH on a side note there was one part I liked, I found it mildly amusing when the NPC talked about getting hot and bothered.
