All Saints’ Wake- short 20min. event. Feedback

I thought it was ok, definitely feels like Halloween. It lacks nice rewards though and I thought FFXI's event was a lot better because you had more than 1 costume and actually had mini games to do all through the event.

Most of those events had tons of items due to previous years event items that were included. Every Halloween you had a few new items, and the next year there would be those items plus the new ones. So after a few years there were tons of items at some events. Is this what you are referring to?

I mean I seem to recall getting around 6 or so bikinis at the last event. Seemed pretty decent to me.

FFXI had it's halloween event where you would trade candy/cookies to certain NPC's and get an undead mob costume. You then had to follow a witch around as a procession but weren't allowed to go in front and lead because that was the witches job. If you did they would confiscate your costume and you had to go get it again. The rewards were pretty minor and easy to get but if you did it properly and used the right costume etc you could get those staves with warp enchantment.

The rewards weren't fantastic but they were somewhat useful and you could every now and then use them, like for instance there was a cloak from an event that let you teleport to the bibiki bay islands where the ferry took something like 20 mins, saving a lot of time should you ever need to go there. Obviously there isn't room in this game for them because SE introduced teleports anyway, but they could have made convenience items.

This event is great and makes it feel like halloween and I am in no way saying it's bad, but it lacks a little something. There are no mini games, 1 ghost costume that looks alright but I'd rather roam around as an imp or something. It just seems that what a 10 year old game did so right has been abandoned for something that's a little bit meh with a few nice touches.
