So I heard you wanted a Hellhound Mount....well..

Thats what the game lacks the most rewards that have value and last for long time. Guess what there are people who like pvp? Why shouldnt they be rewarded like Raiders? Just because the pvp community is small doesnt mean they cant get rewards even the "pve based" ffxiv lacks players that do actual endgame content. Only thing Im seeing here is ppl crying over a mount they cant get even though you can try in season 3 and 4 to get it.

The game doesnt lack long term goals or rewards, in fact, is full of them, everything in this game is behind some kind of grind wall, which actually, is hurting player activity: "Why would i do this if it takes so long and gets replaced later on anyway?"

The problem here is not that people can't get a mount, is that the whole reward structure of pvp and how its handled. You can't encourage people to participate in a game mode when they don't feel they are progressing to a goal cause the reward is months away and isn't really worth the time investment, or maybe, people wanted to get a previous season reward and they can't now cause they started to play this month.

The reward structure of pvp is: messy, prohibitive, unrewarding, unencouraging, and way too exclusive to motivate participation and allow for to to truly develop. There is nothing worse to motivate people to participate in a piece of content than one time exclusive items.

Lets say they release this mount for diamond rank. lets say 1 people per data center get it (following this pvp messed up reward system). They made a mount, for 7 people...? If its for the top 10, then is for 70... Even if its for 700 people. Sorry, but this reward structure is absolutely stupid and anyone thinking about joining pvp just for this mount alone will quit and leave pvp after a few weeks, once again, leaving it dead as it is. Supporting this kind of "encouragment" to the feast is like frontline players supporting GC restrictions because lore reasons.

I meant no rewards that last a long time if its not worth your time deal with it that goes for everyone on here. People should stop acting as if they were entitled to have everything.Other MMOs have such rewards too its just right to give ppl something like this. People dont complain about the system they just complain cause they like the mount I didnt saw any complaints last 2 seasons here where someone said that the gear is unfair etc.. Event mounts/items are limited for a certain group of players for a limited time so. If people actually made the effort reading guides, learning their stuff and practice they could maybe place in top100 in season4 or so. This thread is full of players who want everything for nothing I saw so many complaining in other threads about stuff being cash shop then ingame grind then event etc. Cant please everyone.
