Goobue mount

[Duuude007]

derp.

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.

The interview doubles down on what I said.

"The" Goobbue mount will remain exclusive.
"A, some type of" AKA not 'The' goobbue. A different goobbue mount could also be in play. Which evidence holds true.

Semantics, they would like a word (or two) with you.

I've got to admit, I was kind of ticked when I saw this, for several reasons already mentioned. You had to have one class at level 30 to get the mount, and it was introduced after subscriptions went into effect. So, my husband and I both subscribed to what we felt was a broken game and put time into leveling (which was a purely unenjoyable grind) just to get our goobbues that we hoped we'd want to use in 2.0. It turned out to be a good decision since we love ARR. I have to admit, it does feel like what was implied to be a unique reward is now devalued.

The new goobbues should be more than just a reskin with a different headpiece and bracers. It should be noticeably smaller than the 1.0 goobbue. Something that makes it instantly recognizable as different.

This is just ridiculous. You're really complaining about this? First, Gobbue mount was NEVER a Legacy bonus. Secondly, when they brought it first to the game, they said THAT gobbue would be around for a limited time. They said nothing about other gobbues.

Updated Database shows that it's bought from the Sylph shop for 120,000 of their respective currency.

lmao

Item Description

Laurel Gobbue Horn: This polished horn emits a deep, bellowing tone that creates subtle vibrations in the land that carry for malms. While undetectable by the five races, goobbues can sense these mini tremblors which they often mistake for mating calls. Use to summon your laurel gobbue.

Despite the drama associated with it. If that is the description I'm not sure if I want one regardless.

What if you get one with bad eyesight >_>

I just realized that the new goobue is wearing a crown of flowers. A CROWN. Meaning that he is of a higher lineage and of noble birth, in contrast to the legacy goobue (who is obviously a peasant because he wears a floor rug).

Thank you Yoshi! Not only did you give everyone a Goobue, but you made it better than the original.

The goobbue. "THE" Goobue. This particular goobbue model. If it said "A" goobbue mount, you might have more footing to your argument, which presently falls flat.

Actually 'the' is the definite article. It's literal meaning is 'the only one'. It is the gobbue mount. The only one. If you wished to imply there are others you would use an indefinite article such as 'this Goobbue'.

If they wished not to mislead it should have been

"A Goobbue mount has been added.

Please note that this Goobbue mount...."

They had either originally intended for these to be exclusive or have made a genuine grammar mistake in the original statement, but either way the statement is that Goobbue mounts were exclusive. Now Goobbue mounts are not exclusive.

Now I'm not particularly precious about my Legacy benefits, but misleading statements are not conducive to trust and a happy community. It would be like releasing the Dalamud minion for an ingame event. Those that paid out the nose for the Sound track just for this minion would feel equally aggrieved.

I still think the legacy one looks better <_<;;

edit: And I'm 1.0 (not legacy) with no original gobbue mount!

lol you legacy people.... is there any end to your feelings of entitlement?
