Not Japanese, the OP said Chinese... The little panda cub is very cute :D. Would like a Lunar New Year event sometime in the future for the rest of us :).

I heard they don't get the full Gold Saucer like we do because of China's strict gambling laws. They can have a panda, then.

no rage here

I'll settle for Nana Bear.

Think Yoshi already said the Chinese servers won't be getting the Gold Saucer. In general, the Chinese version lacks certain things, for example, skeletons are banned. They also didn't get the same events we did, they have no Tender Lambs, no Wind-up Edvyas.

Chinese version is on 2.3 as we speak.

If the panda is their way of pleasing the chinese players, because of the no golden saucer, then we should be atleast happy that SE gave them something. I think the panda will show up on the cash store.

Rage Rage Rage Rage oh no they get that panda minion and get to fight that big monster.............im calling BS I don't care if the Chinese server is a closed server we deserve this too. They got to do the Heavens strum event right then we should get this to. What like we don't celebrate Chinese new year well most don't but to block an event due to cultural differences is uncool SE fix this. On that note if it's not fixed i say we block of the Easter event to all out side the EU and the US data servers as well as the Christmas event. As you know cultural differences.

Oh is that why? Well I can understand then but I still think it's unfair they get an exclusive event its their governments problem why they can't get certen stuff I still say we should be able to do the event.

I'm okay with having Gold Saucer and not the stuffed panda... o.O We had a similar thread when the reskinned behemoth mount was created for the CN game. At that time too, we were happier having Gold Saucer. :o

It's wishful desire on my part wanting a panda minion. I'd be just happy having it in the Cash Shop considering all the restrictions the Chinese servers have in terms of their content.

No rage here, their servers are incredibly censored, it's probably like playing a different game.

Shanda Games, not SE, decides what goes into the Chinese version of the game.

Happy New Lunar year!!! \(^o^ )/

now where's my panda? :>

I celebrate the Lunar New Year, would have liked SE to do an event for that. Not the end of the world of course, but if they have the resources already I guess I don't necessarily see why they wouldn't have it on all servers. It's not like we have to trade "Golden Saucer" for "A one off event" seems like a false choice argument xD (not that people are arguing it, just seems like "both, both is good" would be better! lol).

The New Year event we had earlier is sort of related, but wrong celebration date lol. Again, not the end - but it would have been nice to have the game mimic the real world event I like, just as other events in FFXIV.

Oh wow.. Hope this doesnt put limitations on what they do for us just because the Chinese cant have it..

happy Chinese New Year!

Stop asking for things to be put in the cash shop.

Really guys, you are the problem

Don't worry, global version (playing on NA, EU an JP servers with only 1 client and 1 account) is separated from the chinese version (need the chinese client, an Shanda account and have to live in china).
We get the uncut version, the chinese get a china conform version.

Don't celebrate japan the new year on the 31th december like the rest of the world?
The only connection I see between japanese and chinese new year are the zodiacs.

Here, no Lunar event on the japanese holiday calendar

if anyone is the problem its you and the others preaching "anti cash shop." It's here, get over it, don't like it. don't buy from it.

i dont know, were getting the massive delicious cake that is the gold saucer, there isnt really a reason to cry about how we didnt get the cookie that is the panda minion

Lunar New Year based on a lunisolar calendar. I'm not referencing the Gregorian New Year, which we did have a celebration for - with a sheep. Of course many people celebrate the Gregorian New Year and aspecting it by it's history or location seems a bit inaccurate now, as people do their own thing to it hence New Year or Lunar New Year.

The sheep is what makes it sort of related, the date is still off if you were going to call it a celebration of the Lunar New Year though and that was what my comment was based on "related but not quite" if we were going to say that event was for the "Lunar New Year" as well. It is often called the Chinese New Year because they started/made that calendar and holiday; however, not only China celebrates it nor is the only influence to it (now) or do they actually call it that in their own language (Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore are off hand examples - and of course China).

I think Japan used to celebrate the Lunar New Year but stopped at sometime in their development, I wasn't necessarily thinking of Japan though :P.

Panda? Nah I prefer Nana Bear. Btw happy chinese new year!
