Starlight Celebration 2024

[Mr_Gyactus]

Oh no no no, MY BAD. There apparently was one in 2018............almost 7 years ago..........and it's another cash shop item.

I guess to answer your question what I found out was that this cash grab bs sucks, albeit I guess sucks slightly less with this insanely newfound discovery.

Good job mate, you got me.

No, the last tree is 2 years ago, ALMOST 2 years ago.

Now I got you.
If you were doing something else... well not that someone cares.

Years might be off or whatever but the point still stands and it pisses me off too. Or they'll give us, like, an outdoor tree. Cool. Most of the community doesn't own a house and can't make use of outdoor furniture, but alright. Anyway, yeah, it's obvious why they do this and they're not gonna stop. It's grimy as hell. It's free2play levels of grime. It's the kind of thing you'd expect from like, maplestory in 2005 or something. We are all getting a worse game, so that they can monetize solutions. It's the MO of free to play games, but in a buy to play game with a subscription. And once you see it, you can't unsee it.

FF14 has its rules; in this case the rule is "we create new event items every year, but those from previous years go to the store".
WoW has a subscription: this year too in Ironforge there will be the same santa claus who will give the same useless gifts and you will be able to do the same quest for two christmas tree shaped daggers.
Other games with mixed are worse: HEAVY FARM or pay money (often with a RNG element)

Any method is driven by profit, therefore:


What do you prefer?
