Because these are third-party SE does not have the rights to these items in international and US/EU/JP law to just give it away in a quest. They cannot buy say the Cloud item and the rights outright. They have to buy it per generation so all a quest would do is cost them a fortune as SE still has to pay the Chinese group per cloud. The only way to open it up to us is if we as the players pay the fee, which we do by buying it from the mogstation. This is why in an earlier interview it was mentioned that non-XIV music like Crono Triggers would come in the mogstation if anywhere. Even though SE holds general rights, the various sub rights such as distribution, music, media rights and all may belong to individuals unwilling to share or that are no longer with SE
In instances such as the Youkai event the third-party was giving away the items, which the Chinese company has no desire to do. A basic understanding of copy right law goes a long way in explaining these things. Its not all "flip a switch" and "SE is greedy don't put it in the cash shop". Seriously you may want to look into things with a simple bit of google-fu before making arguments like that. Not necessarily the one I'm quoting but people in general. Several of the items in the mogstation have to be given in there as its illegal to hand them out and our only other free route (given as a bonus from a third-party company like Amazon) we proved we can't be trusted.

Sadly, I already knew. I remember that specific discussion and even my disappointment.
Eh...I could actually go without the physical manifestation of King Moogle's lastnight's kuponut supper- mount. Wake me when they finally get around to the Tifa/Lulu piggieback mounts. Hold on tight teehee~
Yes..im sure the windcutter mounts followed this exact same logic and yet were still released to the mass objections of all who obtained them. Come on SE...its not that serious...
So, has anyone seen the new outfits the Chinese server are going to get? >w>
*Important note, the hairstyles in the picture will NOT be added*

Does it play "Cha laaa, head chalaaa, duduuuu" then I want![]()



Yes I saw these...
I can't stress enough how I hope these won't get a huge following like the Chinese Dress got, because I find them absolutely horrible and tacky and just scraming Free2Play Cashshop and oh god I don't want to see them in Eorzea ;-;
