Do you ever think the moogle attire will return?

Whoa, that was a lot of posts. You can keep everything in one post (which makes it a lot easier to read a long rant...) by posting something short then editing the original message to add the rest of the text.

I'm not a legacy player because even though I wanted to play back then my computer couldn't run it. I missed a lot of perks as a result, but the thing I regret more than anything else is that I missed the story that we can never play again. I'm really envious of the people who toughed it out and saw the game world as it used to be; however, I can never go back.

Conceptually the no-longer-available soundtrack minions are a very similar thing. Some people had the resources and knowledge to pick up the soundtracks back when they were new, and thus they have exclusive minions today. It sounds like you are ok with legacy status being exclusive (because you have it) but not with newer players having exclusive minions (because you don't). Both situations are a case of someone being in the right place at the right time, with the right access to resources. If you could afford a decent gaming PC, game and subscription back in 1.0, congrats, you had more disposable cash then than I did. That's exactly the same situation you're criticising now when you didn't have the funds available to buy those soundtracks.

First press bonuses are a very common thing with Japanese CD releases and frankly speaking, they're probably necessary in keeping game CD releases coming out at all. The soundtracks for this game are very expensive, with their deluxe BD releases, and incentivising people to buy them instead of waiting around for them to show up on the used market later made them a natural match for exclusive vanity items.

I don't have a moogle suit. The fairest sounding suggestion I have read is the one which proposes that people who stream the next event can choose to have either the old reward or something new, so they can make a tough decision while the people who bought the stream access previously can have both rewards without making any compromises at all. But I understand if they decide to keep it exclusive forever, because as jealous as those who missed out might be the people who supported the previous stream were promised something special and made their decision based on that promise. I think that a lot of old players would be angry if S-E gave out legacy rewards to ARR players, even via the cash shop, because it's meant to signify something you've done, like a time-limited achievement.
