Moonfire Faire

[Nezerius]

Another excuse. Let's recall the the events from Heavensward, an expansion so taxing on the Devs that they had to take a 2 month break.

Not gonna quote the entire list, but here's a few corrections.

Your list of the rewards from the 2015 Moonfire Faire is actually from the 2014 one. The 2015 one had two variations of southern seas tops and bottoms.
The 2015 Rising Event had Ysayle and Yugiri minions, not Moenbryda.
The Iroha event was a collaboration event with FFXI, and not a seasonal event.
The 2016 Rising Event had Krile and Dress-up Y'shtola minions.
The 2017 Little Ladies Day also had the Songbird dance emote.

Notice how rewards just get less and less.. Minus Little Ladies day

Because we haven't gotten the remaining events for this year yet. If you've been playing XIV for a while, you'll notice that they always pick some events to develop more rewards for, while other events get less rewards. This changes every year.

Example: Little Ladies Day
2017: Full set for each gender, an emote, and two furnishing pieces.
2016: A chest and shoes for each gender, and one furnishing,
2015: A necklace and two furnishings.
2014: A minion, and earrings.

In comparison to: Valentione's Day
2017: Emote, a minion, a furnishing and an orchestrion roll.
2016: Two hats, two earrings, three furnishings.
2015: A barding and two furnishings.
2014: A hat, gloves and boots for both genders, chest and pants that were gender specific. Three necklaces.

As you can see, the 2014 Valentione's Day event had more rewards than the 2014 Little Ladies Day, while the 2017 Little Ladies Day event had more rewards than the 2017 Valentione's Day event.

I never did the 2014 summer event as I had not joined at that point. But I remember those items being in there(2015 summer) for sure...

And I see there were alot of things I missed with a bunch of events in 15, 16, and 17 lol. It still doesn't change the pattern <.<. Like it's literally not just one odd event with only one or two rewards. It was one after the other ever since Saints' Wake 2016. And the events also have no depth anymore. Grab quest -> Talk to NPC -> Complete.

They were added to the mogstation in 2015, so I'm fairly sure that they weren't obtainable through in-game means, at that point.

You're missing the point I was trying to make. Not every event in their respective years will have the same amount of rewards. If event x and y have little rewards in one year, while event z has more rewards, that means that they put more focus on event z.

Likewise, the following year could have event x with more rewards, while event y and z have less.
