This. If it wasn't for Yoshi coming along and saving the game they wouldn't even have anywhere to complain about not having an exclusive item anymore.


Also, this. Not to mention the fact that during a large part of 1.0 the game didn't even have a sub, and when they did finally reintroduce it it was at $9.99, a price they still pay to this day. So, actually, players who started playing in 2.0 have actually paid more in sub fees than legacy players, and thus have supported the game more.

That's a slap in the face to every 1.0 player who stuck that version of the game out. 2.0 players support the game more because they pay the normal, standard sub fee? Poppycock! We have supported the game from the very start, you have this game in part due to the fact that there was a small population of us who didn't desert the game and showed SE ppl were logging in and playing despite the failed launch. Entitled? Not at all, just stop dumping on us, we did the hard work, you get to enjoy the reboot. The reduced sub was part of the ty for playing a failed game, doesn't make those of us benefiting from it, supporting it any less.

No, it isn't. A number of 1.0 players have weighed in and stated that they don't mind if the rewards are made available. So, for starters, you might want to avoid using terms such as 'every 1.0 player'.

I am a 1.0 player and I think they should add them and glad they are.

I know right? As long as they don't touch my legacy mark they can do whatever they want. And even if Yoship turns a $5 trick for a legacy mark on the mog station, I'm not going to spam every form of social media over that gross miscarriage of justice.

My one annoyance with the legacy mark is that it's not just limited to legacy accounts. It's limited to legacy characters. I started over in 2.0 with a new character on a new server, and while I've never regretted doing so, I'm a little sad that she don't have the cool tattoo.

1.0 players that "stuck with" 1.0 did so because they wanted to, not for any sort of selfless act of heroism or test of endurance. They did no work.

Exactly this. People played because they wanted to play a game. There was no great sacrifice being made here. And SE decided to remake this title... the subs that stuck around were a very very VERY tiny fraction of any decision that was made to do that. So I'm not really going to genuflect to a 1.0 player just because they stuck around longer than I did. Honestly, from a very coldly logical and economical standpoint, SE has no real reason to care what Legacy Players want these days. Their focus would logically be on bringing in and retaining new players because the value of their subs is going to be higher. Dollar/Yen/Euro/etc-wise, their requests and wants for the game are going to matter more to the developers than the much smaller faction of Legacy Players, regardless of how nice that is to hear. Legacy Players got their 'thank you' with the Legacy Chocobo, Tattoo, and Sub. Probably not great to hear, but eh.
