REVIVE INGAME ITEMS FOR EVERYONE

[Bellsong]

Mass Effect 2 released it's pre order items for free on PSN at one point.

FOMO sucks and the digital items contained in the pre order bonus's are usually really small and I never see people actually use them beyond a couple days/weeks after release. Just re-release the earrings in the mog station without the EXP bonus. Wham! Totally different item. And just straight up sell the minions, they did it with fanfests so they clearly don't mind breaking their FOMO marketing strat if it means money for them. And if that really isn't satisfying for people who have the preorder stuff, then change the flavor text, call it a replica, there you go it's different! Can't complain now.

Pre order items are not these big deal special items proving you did something difficult or challenging or even remotely interesting for, you pre ordered a game you would have pre ordered regardless, whoop-dee-doo-da! Stop acting like pre order items should be as coveted as founder items for an early access game you're taking a risk on.

I'm not sure who you are aiming your anger at as you didn't quote anyone but it seems rather unnecessary.

That said, I remember when the beast tribe quests were added to the game and the forum melted because the Goobbue mount was too similar to another mount 1.0 version players thought was exclusive. Some people care that their exclusive items remain exclusive. Personally I don't care what anyone else has and I don't get jealous of other people's stuff but if I enter a deal with an exclusive reward I expect it to remain exclusive, not just in this game but anywhere, because that was the deal I agreed to.

SE have broken that one a lot. Like the 2016 fanfest exclusive Abes attire and Yuna minion.

Yeah it's not something I agree with personally.

Just to add though, I'm the kind of player who frequently takes long breaks so I have very few exclusive items, I'm not saying I have it so you can't. It's more you have it and I don't really care. A deal is a deal to me, so if I missed it, I missed it.
