About the EU campaign for maid outfit and fat chocobo

I'm afraid it will be like the last one; it will come late, expensive and worse than the other regions.

What will it be? Buy drinks at Bar that is far from everyone? Limited printed magazines?

Let's hope SE learned from the last big mistake. We have Amazon.es, .fr, .co.uk and so on... I think it's easier to just do it with Amazon than making different chaotic campaigns.

Or put it on mogstation for maximum profit.

I wish, but the meaning of this campaign is publicity, so they have to take this way, sadly ;_;

So the logical conclusion here is that we should generate as much negative publicity as possible or they'll keep doing it, right? Anyone have any connections with the gaming press? Perhaps we could write some reviews about how we feel?

Seriously S-E Europe, please tell us what's going on. Even logging out and visiting General gives a neverending parade of insulting threads about how NA account holders are using their new items now. It's demoralising as heck. You cannot run a worldwide gaming service this way and expect people to find it acceptable, especially after the mess of the previous 'EU' campaign. Region locking the codes then failing to serve the other regions after what happened last time is just begging for people to feel shortchanged.

It is most definitely demoralising. Aside from the threads on this forum related to people showing off their new acquisitions there's a lot of people running around with them in-game. It's the same with the FF14 Reddit. Meanwhile, some of us have been checking this thread daily since the last promotion desperately trying to get the attention of someone who can alleviate our concerns and let us know where we stand. We've had nothing but silence and even the initial official responses to this thread seemed to completely miss the point of the very valid complains being raised.

Again, I sincerely hope that the European campaign(s) are more easily accessible and much less contrived and/or obscure than the initial batch. I also hope that we have a fair chance to obtain every promotion item as a lot of us missed out on everything the last time around and it is going to be disheartening if we can only pick one batch of items as a reward.

Yeah, I would buy 50 quid worth of stuff to get the butler suit, not interested much in the rest of the things. Anyway, I do agree wholeheartedly with every word you wrote and hope that they will listen to us this time. I wish I could like your post 10 more times.
