A GOOBUE MOUNT WILL NEVER BE OBTAINABLE AGAIN...EVER.

Read what you linked again, a little slower this time. If you can find where it says the exact phrase "A Gobbue", I will concede to not knowing how to read. With the amount of effort you are putting into this it is quite obvious you could care less . Not one person has said you are a terrible person or anything of the sort, you are once again seeing what you want to see.

It says THE goobbue mount meaning the goobbue mount pictured. It does not mention ANYWHERE that "this will be the only time you will ever be able to receive a goobbue mount in Final Fantasy XIV". At the time of event it was the only goobbue mount in the game so of course they're only going to refer to it as "the goobbu mount" because it is the only goobbue mount.

He didnt pay any attention when i said exactly that a few pages back. He's not liable to listen to you either.

I guess you are right, look what I found

RG: Was there something you or your team wanted to bring into A Realm Reborn, but didn’t make it into the launch. Also, if at all possible are you reviewing this for an expansion and is there anything from 1.0, like the Goobbue mounts that you will be bringing into A Realm Reborn.
Ok, one of the biggest things that we had planned for 2.0 or A Realm Reborn release but weren’t able to get it in was, what we mentioned before, the Crystal Tower and the 24 man alliance raid that we have planned for that. When we had it almost complete, and when we were testing it, we found that it was very very difficult, almost as difficult as the super difficult Binding Coil of Bahamut and realized that by having these two sets of high-end content, something that only the hardest of hardcore players could play, not enough people could access that, so we decided right at the end to take it out and readjust it to make it more accessible. With the 24 man raid, you want to have fun with at least 24 people and we want something regular players can get in and have fun with this. So we decided to move it to 2.1 after adjusting it. That was one of the things that, while we wanted to have it in at the release, we decided it was better if we adjusted it and released it in 2.1.
So, going onto something that was in 1.0, that we didn’t get into the game, but that we wanted to get into the game was the battle with The Good King Moggle Mog and that Moogle battle we had in 1.0. But, we realized that writing the main scenario and the main story for ARR, that it didn’t fit the story and we didn’t have a way to get it to fit in and so we decided to push it, rather than forcing it into the story and have it be unnatural – we decided we are just going to put it off. But, now we are working it into the story and we have a way to get it in the story, so we will be releasing it in 2.1.
As for the Goobbue mount, that was a present for those fans that stuck with us through the hard times and its for them, we don’t want the meaning of that to get watered down by bringing it back for everyone. We want it to be that thank you from us, for sticking with us through those hard times.
However, we understand that we have a lot of players would like to see their characters ride on a Goobbue and so maybe bringing in some type of Goobbue for those fans that weren’t with us in legacy, is something we might consider.

Lol but notice its after the goobue campaign ended. You have to admit though...if you were around for 1.0, they said it over and over and made it sound like NEVA EVA can get it again. I'm just going to start taking what they say with a grain of salt.

Also please stop typing in such a condensing way...it is extremely rude and makes it very hard for me to be respectful to you. Thanks and good day.

Thanks for finding that quote from Yoshi-P. It's reassuring to see that Yoshi-P did indeed consider that the introduction of a Goobbue mount in 2.0 would be somewhat contrary to what he connoted two years ago. It seems that success and/or SE hasn't completely consumed his soul just yet.

As for "watered down", it still looks like we went from a "thank-you" mount to a "thank-you" rug , but as someone who felt self-conscious about using my goobbue mount around friends who didn't play back then, I'm happy to call out "the big guy" much more often now.

May "goobbue envy" finally perish from Eorzea.

I am not quite sure I understand the nature behind these posts. Were/are we not on the same page concerning this?

I will admit that I was being a bit of an ass with my posts in this thread, sorry about that. As an FFXI player of a few years but not an adopter of FFXIV in any incarnation prior to 2.0, I was excited to get the chance at obtaining a Gobbue mount, due to it being one of the more unique and enjoyable monsters in the former. However, once I saw this thread in particular discussing how the OP and certain other players felt about the events, I got a little upset (bad call) that this was something to be construed as an issue. The tone in my posts turned out to be a little more heated than I had intended in retrospect.
