Square Enix, why is this year's Heaventurn the same as last year's?

Anyways, if they are going repeat any old event, let it be the one with transfigurations, it was hilarious.

I actually enjoy the fate myself, wish it was around more often or used in other things like Goldsaucer. Just shame I don't think I'll ever actually use the helmets but I got it just in case I find a use.

I got to see Jiro again so it was all good.

You saw my chocobo? How? I know he looks nice, but I wouldn't go as far as to say all is good just because I see him everyday

On topic:
I haven't actually done the event yet, but if it is indeed the same as last year, that's just lazy. That simple, boring fate of evading the hammer was already lackluster last year, when it was "new".

I wouldn't say seasonal events got worse in general - actually, nearly all seasonal events this year were great or even amazing (Valentione's with getting your fortune read with other players, Easter with all the fun minigames of hunting the big egg, evading egg thieves and memorizing the egg patterns, Little Ladies' Day with the lovely Girl Group and serverwide progression, Gold Saucer Celebration with a very cool detective style game with tons of different endings, The Rising with all the funny storylines and a cool 1.0 recap, absolutely amazing Halloween Haunted House and lately Starlight with so many cute little dream sequences ).
They all had lots of replay value, didn't involve Fates (after we complained a lot during 2015 that every seasonal event is always just fates) and were generally fun to do. If Yo-kai Watch hadn't left many people very bitter and burned out, the events this year would all have been great. Except for Heavensturn now, which people complained about already even before it just got copied from the year before ~v~

SE could have ended this year on a high note, fitting with all the other amazing events this year. But nope. It's a boring one-time Fate without replay value =.=

I thought it was just to short and simple. I literally did 1 turn in with the fate on my alt (got there just as it was ending) and still got credit.

Plus there was just really nothing to it. Even the story, if you can call it that, felt thrown together. I don't mind if they rehash old events, but it felt like they forgot about this one (and starlight celebration too frankly) and just threw something together quick at 4 o'clock on a Friday.

[EusisLandale]

I'm less upset about the repeated fate and more that the simple solution wasn't an option or even addressed; Just tell the guy to stop calling them cocks.

Sounds like you completely missed All Saints Wake and The Rising this year

Ive done every event since launch and even some in 1.0. I shall take back part of what I said since the All Saints Wake slipped my mind and was fairly decent still a short quest though. (blame it on the alcohol)

[Yellow]

Honestly I would have just liked a bit more. Like I dunno, like food that can be collected from the FATE? The vendor sells gathering food, so maybe mochi for crafting?

Also some cock fireworks would have been cool.

I didn't knew I'm playing this game for free.

It's a shame to see you working so hard on that strawman, because we aren't going to Oz.

[Alaina]

I'm still waiting for the ability to put the Usagi helmets in the armoire. at least we could put the new ones in it >.>

[MagiusNecros]

you get free stuff, shut up and either do it or don't

Stats are garbage too so not worth doing. Neener neener.

Besides if it was free they would just moogle mail it instead of do some sissy fate/quest chain to obtain obnoxious helmet that does nothing for you.

But that orchestrion roll will make all the difference I'm sure.
