Minion and Attire From Future Fanfest Codes

As most of us noticed, when we received the items for the Las Vegas stream the minion and attire were on the same code. This obviously isn't a problem for those who are only getting one stream. However, for those of us who plan to get all 3 streams, for all pets, that leaves us with 2 superfluous sets of attire that we cannot use.

Is it at all possible to split the minion code and the attire code into 2, much like the Amazon event, so that we can pass on extra outfits. For example, my husband is being very gracious in letting me get the pets, but it would be sad that I will end up with 2 extra sets of attire I literally cannot use and he gets nothing from the $90.

As it is we would be purchasing 6 items (pet and attire x 3) and only be able to use 4/6. Please take this into consideration for the Tokyo and Germany streams!

P.S. Additional request, Cleeng was awful, please stick to Twitch or ANYTHING else that actually allows you to watch things after they happen so you're not stuck to the house for 48 hours because you're unable to watch things after the fact.

That would really be nice as I attended NA fanfest and have no use for the extra codes I'll be getting from the other two for the outfits.

The issue is that, if they split the code, it might end with people selling the 'spare' code they do not want. And to be blunt, given that there are forums which don't give a damn, or people will use dodgy phrasing on ebay, there WILL be selling for RL cash.

I'm getting very tried of being told that basic QoL fixes are impossible because someone might abuse them. The fact that the codes aren't splitable actually made me decide against purchasing stream access, since there were other ways to view it. SE needs to stop denying their honest customers features just because a few bad seeds can't be trusted not to misbehave; it's a surefire way to lose both revenue and goodwill.

Of course it will happen, just like it did with the maid outfit but we also might have people giving them away for free, like it also happened with the maid code, not everyone are **** :)

Right, personally I'd want to keep two codes so I could have the Tidus outfit for me and the Yuna for my one female retainer, but I'd planned to give the third to an FC mate at no charge. I'm not looking to profit, it just bugs me that the item would go to waste.

So we can sell the codes on eBay? I'm doubt SE want that to happen.

'You can't have a knife to cut your dinner with because if we allow knives someone might stab someone else with theirs!'

Punishing honest people preemptively in order to stop the dishonest people from being dishonest is unfair and unreasonable.

No, it's not about that. It's just not good for business. If people can give their spared costume codes to their friends, SE will lose an opportunity to sell one more ticket/streaming.

Agreed. Making them the same code is quite wasteful in this regard.
Personally, I wanted the Yuna outfit and my Husband wanted the Rikku minion, I gave him the code.
Ok so I'll buy another stream to get my outfit, but I am a little disappointed because the quality of the stream content is rather lacking and the 'hosts' between segments seem like they are faking their enthusiasm?

They should be running live digital code giveaways (people who bought the stream online are entered)
Reading fan mail, comments, suggestions
Just... anything besides sitting there going 'oh, yeah... it looks cool *awkward pause and head nodding*'

If the stream was worth more, then more people would purchase it, the best part is the key notes and the concert/s. The rest is filler... or is free (The live letter, which last letter was filled with a lot of repeated information from the key notes ><!!)

Opps, sorry i went a little off topic. But yes, codes separated would be great, this way we can give the awkward laugh costume away for free to friends in the event 1 person wants all the minions, or better yet... offer different items! *grins*.

Being consumer-friendly is better for business in the long run than selling one more code. In my case they missed out on selling three stream codes over the chance that I might give away one of them. Saving one sale at the cost of two more is a poor business decision, and the loss of goodwill from a loyal customer is an even worse one.

I agree with what others have said. There will always be people in the World who will abuse anything, but if I'm paying for 6 items I should be able to use 6 items. If I can't use all 6 then it should be at my discretion, as the purchaser, to pay forward the 2 I don't need. I LOVED the way the Amazon event was handled. I passed on the male only items and for once my husband got the benefit of some of the things we're BOTH paying for. I didn't think for one second the codes for the stream would be any different, until I got the moogle-mail.

After the experience with Cleeng on the NA fanfest there is NO WAY I would throw $30 away on a second stream just so he could get the outfit (assuming we could even afford it) I'm being given and can't use.

PLEASE do this for us SE! Let us pay-it-forward on the extra outfits we can't use!

Few bad apples spoil the bunch but more likely lot of bad apples cause there would be more people looking to profit off it then do give it away to someone for free. It also most likely a way for SE to get people to buy it instead of getting it from a friend although I think many more people would of bought into the stream at $20 like the 2014 fan fest.

I'd be more likely to buy the stream if I could use all 6 items for them, add to the fact that through Cleeng you had to stay glued to your computer for 2 days or you are rendered unable to watch it and the whole charade seems increasingly pointless and like throwing money down the drain, lol.

Client service was terrible last fan fest
