People see unsynced as "poorly-handled?"

It allows one to get through expired content faster. Don't see how that's a problem.

It only a problem for elitists who care about rewards from old content 1-2 expansions later being able to be gotten.

So everyone who does stuff not unsync and doesn't like it that people don't have to do anything to clear content (older or not is irrelevant) is an elitist. Who peed in your potato soup?

I don't care if people get all the stuff shoved up their kupo but its still kinda sad that this content gets demoted to be a stupid faceroll.

People were grinding for months to get all the Ex-Primal mounts and Kirin. And then they not only increased the drop-rate, but also introduced the unsynch function. I can kill every 2.0 Ex-Primal solo and can carry a newbie through them and get him all the mounts in one evening.

That's kind of a slap in the face for everyone who spent countless hours in these fights to get the mounts.

And why do they make these mounts available for everyone / increase the drop rates, but then add super rare mounts like the Centurio Tiger, Astrope and PvP rewards? Doesn't make much sense for me.

And even the community doesn't know what they want. Asking for a nerf regarding the Centurio Tiger mount or Astrope to get them easier, and the people say you are just lazy and should put the work into it. And when they make things easier to obtain and you say you don't like that, then that's bad either, because that stuff is old and should be available for everyone and you are just a selfish person who denys other people some pixels for the sake of feeling like a better person or so.

Okay, the earrings were not available at all anymore. However, I am talking about exclusive / hard to get / trophy items in general.

Forget the earrings, that's the cutest male lala I've ever seen.

You don't see how scaling down content difficulty without scaling down content reward isn't poor design? I call it conveyor belt design, and it does nothing but harm player progression and accomplishment by invalidating them with every patch.

I can say without any doubt that the unsync system and everything that it has caused is the sole reason for the "I can and should get everything for free" mentality. Look at the Rathalos threads for example to see the amount of people saying "I'll just wait for it to unsync in a patch or two". That kind of mentality is extremely bad for the health of the game and the community, and the unsync system is entirely responsible.

They’re in the shop with the seasonal fireworks and Realm Reborn Red, so maybe not still? I don’t think any of those are on MogStation even if they’ve been around for longer.

All other seasonal event items are on the cash shop, I don't see a reason why SE wouldn't cash in on these items (unless they actually listen to the feedback from peoples complaints, which is doubtful considering the state of the game recently).
