I'll say that, it's understandable the Devs are struggling to get content for the game out and ready for Endwalker. But I would agree, the "holidays" in FFXIV have become super, super disappointing.

As suggested, perhaps they could bring back story and playable content from past events? I understand that many of those past seasonal event items are available in Mog Station, but... well, I'd argue they'd be better to suck it up and risk losing some of the money there, in order to give active players some truly EXCITING content again. But if nothing else, bring back old items, and maybe recolor them?

My sister, for example, plays FFXIV but since she started, there hasn't been a single Halloween even. She is SUPER bummed about it, because one of the things that got her on-board with FFXIV was me talking about how awesome the Halloween event was (it was always both of our favorite holiday when we were kids). If they can't create new content, rebranding old content would be a pretty great half-measure, especially with the HUGE influx of new players lately. Like, maybe for the "Spooky" outfit, we get an Orange-and-Black-striped version of the clothing, with the all-black remaining exclusive to the OG event or Mog Station. Or the Beholder mount, maybe it's a different color or has a different hat?
