Fat Moogle Mount on Mogstation!

So while it is true that an XI sub granted you access to all there was XI related, "all there was" was much smaller in content than what we see today.

Uhh no thats not true. FFXI put out alot more content over the same amount of time FFXIV ARR has been out.

I would say that XI definitely has at least as many events as XIV, maybe more (would need to scour announcements on this one). I actually still play XI, and at this point I would say their collection of event gear is pretty massive. Granted part of this does come with being around for 13 years, but they have always steadily released new costumes and event items. Also, they now have a glamour system so this is no longer stuck being town gear only.

They also have started releasing new mounts in-game. The styles are obviously vastly different from XIV, but I think it's cool that we still get new items to this day.

Anyway, no real point here, just elaborating a bit.

Mmmm When XI was at it's peak glamour or fluff wasn't really wanted or considered needed by the community. The only reason i use glamour really is to hide gear i don't like. I remember hating subligars combined with doublets during leveling in xi because the doublet would hide the subligar making you look like you had no clothes down under. But it was a minor inconvenience, i don't have the motivation to go out collecting glamour items like a number of peeps in my ls' do. The furthest i've gone is to glamour my BLM gear to a Classic BLM look.

Not arguing the necessity of event gear, just clarifying the quantity
