My main entertainment is housing and reading the forums, reading the excuses that yall find to excuse absolute mediocrity.

We've gotten 4 glamour sets out of Island Sanctuary so far. Two were "Visions" rewards, two are sold by the cowrie vendor (one set with multiple leg choices, the other set with multiple body and leg choices). Those sets are unique to Island Sanctuary.
2 of those glams from sanctuary are decent, 1 is absolutely mediocre. Meanwhile the mog shop ones are amazing and as per usual of higher quality and better looking.

Island Sanctuary has given us 5 mounts. Online store has added 6 so far this expansion (at least 2 of them KR/CN imports).
The only decent mount from IS is the bike, the rest is terrible, meanwhile amazing mounts got added to the store.

More from Island Sanctuary - 2 minions, 2 Fashion Accessories, 2, hair styles, 2 Orchestrion rolls, a barding, TT card, 2 framer's kits and 7 housing furnishings.
Okay ? Sure, most of these dont even matter, namely the orchestrion rolls, the barding, the card and the framer kits.

Excluding seasonal event items that had been originally available as rewards in game, the online store has added 3 new emotes, 8 Orchestrion rolls, 1 housing furnishing.
And has added multiple amazing glams.

So where is this overwhelming amount of items being added to the online store compared to what is being added as game play rewards? I only listed Island Sanctuary. Do I need to also start listing Dungeon rewards, trials rewards, raid rewards, treasure map rewards, FATE rewards, PvP rewards, Gold Saucer rewards, etc.?
I never said the game has no sort of rewards, I said that the superior rewards are on the mog shop, which is true. The higher quality is on the shop.
