Early clear exclusive rewards

[Sighearth]

fun is an subjective reward, you may or may not have. What I want is an objective reward

FFXIV has always and hopefully will always be a game that you can engage on your personal schedule and not the developers schedule, at least as far as most progression and available achievements and items.
Exceptions being Firmament titles, Feast rewards, and 1.0 content.

I do not wish to have yet another thing I have to miss out on because it's on a games schedule and not mine. There is quite a lot of FOMO out there already and it's not something I wish to encourage.

We can always try the next time, no one is entitled to everything. The only way to have any real value is to some people losing some rewards. Thats what makes them special and exclusive. I dont see people complaining for the top 100 rewards from the feast for example.

Ah I see, you need to feel more special. Maybe Yoshi P should put your photo on his mantlepiece, next to the pictures of his favourite dog and family.

I don't need to feel more "special" its only natural to expect a better reward then "only fun" Its effort x reward. Adding things to have more people trying to raid is always a plus and I'm not convinced of the downsides yet

Nobody is saying they're entitled. Just that it sucks for casuals which this game caters to. If "real value" to you is only because someone else doesn't have it, I don't care about your values. I want the capability to get things I want in a video game and not need to schedule my life around it.
FOMO is a consumer hostile practice that we've been stockholm syndromed into believing is fine.

Like 1.0 rewards that are no longer available or all the 18 or so the feast top 100 rewards that ppl missed and will never come back. Its only natural some ppl will lose rewards. The same way casuals will lose that reward, people that wont do pvp already lost a lot of rewards (me included). I wont be mad because of the rewards I lost, I didnt do pvp so I accepted that, maybe next season I will try who knows.

People in the past have complained about the top 100 rewards from the feast though. Either about how once people get into that range they stop playing as if I remember correctly there was no incentive to rank higher. Or the want for rewards to be rotated as I want to say this was back when the rewards was armor that either looked cool or had pvp stats or both. Back when pvp armor still had stats. Not accounting for at least the few times people got upset over assumed win trading that some who ranked in older seasons did.

I was admittedly worried that post might have been too subtle

Heh. I remember the devs commenting about the party set up of the JP team that cleared one of the Ultimates with a Drk back when everyone was craping on the job.

Yes.. we already have things that people cannot have later and are no longer available. I said as much in my first post. We shouldn't ask for more. I'm not losing sleep over the fact I'll never have any of the Feast mounts, or the 1.0 gobbue, or the firmament titles, but I certainly don't want more.

you do. you get gear early.

If you don't like the reward, don't do it. If you clear early you get gear and mounts early. If the fun is trivial to you I honestly don't know what to say, the whole point of logging into the game is to have fun, any other motivation is unhealthy.
