Thank you for the event!

Cute event. More interactive seasonal events please!

This!

Sorry, but I'm going to acknowledge the fact that the Devs seem to have actually listened to feedback here. There were a LOT of complaints, on various platforms, pertaining to the seasonal events all following the pattern of 'talk to NPC-A who sends you to talk to NPC-B, C and D and then report back to NPC-A.

I mean, recently, we've had:
- The Starlight Stalls
- The resort 'fun' ship for Moonfire Faire
- A version of Haukke Manor for All Saint's Wake
- The Pâtisserie for Valentione's Day
- The current (at the time of this post) Little Ladies Day 'support your favourite'

All which add something extra to the events.

I, for one, am looking forward to seeing if they add something new to Hatching-tide.

That reminds me of the Tonberry themed one they did one year.

It was legitimately surprising seeing so many people in an ARR zone that wasn't related to a hunt train.

My only “complaint”… I wish the emotes threw stars at your target like they did in the Fate! T.T

I mean I'd much rather have done the cake event multiple times for Valentine than do this "fate" over and over. It's more about fun than it is about rewards. Spamming glowstick emotes onto NPCs over and over is not very engaging. I agree it's nice to do event stuff for a while as opposed to one and done, but it should be fun, and this one, to me at least, isn't very fun.

This is my sentiment as well. The event was "okay;" certainly more effort went into it than their usual 'run around Gridania talking to 4 NPCs about a 'problem' that's solved in 5 minutes.' But I only found it to be slightly better than those 10-minute "events." But still, better.

The rewards are pretty varied, I'll give them that. I still think the T-shirts are lazy in more ways than one, but I suppose it matches what they wanted to go for with this particular Little Ladies' Day- which is modern, glowstick-waving fans at a concert.

The whole FATE/event is a callback to years ago when we used the first set of glowstick emotes to cheer-on the idols during a FATE in a similar fashion, so, it's hard to be too critical of it for that...

Having said that though, I still find that this event pales in comparison to their legacy Halloween instanced duties, instanced Valentione duties (especially having just come from the more fun/involved patisserie duty), and even various older outdoor FATEs like the mochi-pounding New Years one, or the ones that utilized event mount's special actions. Compared to all of those, this is barely a pulse-check; not engaging or fun at all.

I suppose there's something to be said about having a 0-stress, easy event FATE that's more involved than simply talking to NPCs (and gives you reasons to run it repeatedly), but honestly, I found it very mediocre and would have preferred to have reasons to run 'fun' events like the Valentione's patisserie duty multiple times to collect everything the same way this 2-minute FATE (that doesn't feel engaging beyond some simple point-and-click tablet game for preschoolers) asks of players wanting to collect everything and then some...

Don't forget the rising event where it was a small retailing of the end of 1.0.

Frankly something more would be awesome. But for the moment I'm just 'happier' it's not "talk to NPC 1 2 3 4, all amounting to 10-15 minutes then finish". Low bar, I know. Lmao.

I really like holidays events and very glad the differ every year so we won’t see the same event. But I believe there is room to improve and really hope developers will listen community.

[Plaglow]

I like that we are getting more Mini-games with these events, like making the cakes and the fates. I don't care too much for the rewards at all but i still find myself joining the crowd when the fate pops.

Didn't like this one, all this k-pop fan business is really not my cup of tea. Neither are the shirts.
But at least it had some interactive elements, so I won't complain.

To be fair it's not kpop but exactly like the japanese idols and their fans that would wear shirts like that, and cheers a lot with glowstick or even without. It's been like that in japanese culture for years, way before kpop even starts to be popular a couple of years ago. :P

And I really don't think that kpop fans act like that (but I don't really listen to that so I don't know), but when I see that it really feels japanese for me and not korean xD
