Lightning EVENT is BIG Disappointment for me !

[Alhanelem]

When i saw that this event will come i was really happy ! I was thinking that a story with cinematics and duty dns will be in it for eavery 4 chapters !

And now i have to do fate with 100 of people in it witch are casting ground spells over and over again all the time !

And the quest describtion is poor, what exactly am i supose to do ! In 2 fates when Lightning was there i managed to get in one bronze medal in the other one silver ! Still i didnt get to finish it !!!!!! I also missed 4 fates bacause of those spell spamers and i couldnt hit a thing !

As it seems i have to wait 2-3days so that i can get a chance !!!!

BIG BIG Disappointment !!

To avoid disappointment, you need to set your expectations lower. Where did you get the idea that there were going to be cinematics and cutscenes? Did they ever advertise it as such? No.

I am not disappointed as I didn't expect it to be anything more than it was. A quest/fate event with a FF13 theme.

We'll get a full costume

Only if you're level 45. *grumbles*

I personally think its completely fair to judge it according to the events that have already been out. Don't you?

Absolutely not. We're essentially in the "beta" stages of this event. And you know you can't talk badly about anything in beta.

Can't say is a really fun FATE but at least I got all the stuffs atm spending 2 hours.
The weapons are really cool so I am cool with it as well lol

They should have had 2 different versions of the weapons, level 12 (I think they are) and some level 50 weapons. It sucks that the weapons are pretty cool but theres really no use for them except for a few levels.

just because you dont like the taste of ketchup, that means everyone else should not like it as well?

sorry buddy, but everyone has different tastes - go eat mustard and let those that like ketchup enjoy eating ketchup!

You mean people who kept the game going into patch 1.23 and welcomed 2.0 aren't happy about a poorly designed event that is suppose to advertise the new FFXIII along with give XIV players something to do? One where the main character of the event isn't even viewable because of said design. Sorry for expecting the bar to be higher than it is.

Solutions:

1) level something with an AOE spam cross class.
2) delay your participation by a chapter. i.e....farm chapter 1 after chapter 2 is released, and so on. Guarantees there will progressively be less of a crowd in the fate you're farming.

Not sure why anyone expected less than a spam fest within the first 12 hours of its release -.-

But no.. here we are wasting time on stuff such as useless instanced housing ( I heard you cant store crap there) and advertisements.

... How can you not look forward to housing in a MMORPG? Really? Ever heard of a thing called 'immersion'? Apparently not.

Probably because people keep leaving off the first part of the acronym -RPGMMO.
