Reopen the Moogle Pageantry Store now!!

[Fynlar]

It wasn't in fine print. It was in the big same box for every moogle event that informs you that you can only get the tomes during the event. This time the text was slightly different.

It was a change that served to potentially screw many people out of the work they'd done farming tomes, and it was just a single line of text that wasn't even there directly in-game, but rather over halfway down a webpage (and not even mentioned right next to, I don't know, the actual end date of the event...)

As far as I'm concerned, that's fine print.

Believe me, I will hold SE's feet to the fire for consumer-unfriendly things but the information was out there on this.

Like I said, it is perfectly reasonable to argue that the information was indeed out there and that the fault lies with the players who got screwed.

It still does not change the fact that this was an unnecessary, consumer-unfriendly change that only could have resulted in player dissatisfaction. It's okay if you can't admit to that. I'll do it instead.

While I will agree its on the person to have read the fine print about the event times, I do think the itinerant moogle turn in method should change. You already earned the tokens and the itinerant moogle doesnt leave now. he's always available to show what was up as rewards, so why not just make it so that you can still turn them in, you just cant get anymore of whatever mog tomes were available...

Precisely. There was no good reason to suddenly change how this event worked (no reason that they've given us, anyway) other than to screw players over.

But, as ever, white knights gonna white knight.

The biggest issue people have is assuming. Never assume. Stop assuming! It does nothing for you nor the company! In any capacity!

At any time, SE can change anything in any aspect of the game or ToS whenever they want. They did their part by giving a warning about the tomes being useless past the cut-off date. Just because other Moogle tome events left the moogle in for a time after, does not mean they are obligated to do this nor will always do this. This was also a special event specifically for Fanfest.

This is not white knighting, this is literally telling people to stop assuming and stomping their feet because they didn't take it upon themselves to read something that SE did what they could to inform people about.

Seriously, I feel like I'm at work right now trying to explain something this basic to people in a thread on the forums started by a known troll. I deal with this kind of petulance and lack of self responsibility every day and boy, I can tell you - SE ain't the one at fault here. Not by a long shot lmao.

Right. The same place they always tell people the tomes are only available to obtain during the event. That box is not new, just the addition that "item exchange" would also not be available. It would be nice if they explained why they changed things up, but it's their discretion to do that any time. They made sure the information was out there about the change.
