    360 Day Veteran Reward - Aetheryte Ticket

    In light of the recent revelation that the 360 day veteran reward is just 50 consumable Aetheryte tickets, this thread is to request that this be changed.

    The Veteran rewards are all about rewarding fans for their loyalty and, let's face it, subscription money. A reward that is equivelant to a nominal amount of gil (in the range of 15-25,000g) is not a suitable reward for paying for the game for an entire year. It is making free something that is already available in the game.

    I don't think the "meh" response from the community is unreasonable given the reward will be such an insignifcant item for the vast majority of people.

    IMO the reward would have fit in more nicely for a 30 day sub - because the equivelant 20,000g is still a fairly substantial amount at this stage in the game. One year in, though, this amount is, at best, nominal.

    Scrap the tickets and replace them with something more substantive/meaningful.

    [Edit] Thank you SE!!

    - Wind-up Odin minion
    - Wind-up Warrior of Light minion
    - Barding of Light
    - Aetheryte Ticket (50))

    How dare Square Enix reward me for playing a game I would've been playing anyway without the rewards.

    Your response is fairly typical of the "stop complaining" camp, Brady, and understandable in some respects. If you're going to employ the use of a rewards system, though, you're inviting complaints where those rewards are terrible.

    Because those of you "pissed off/disappointed" at something SE doesn't even have to do is getting silly now. Did you forget you're paying to play a video game, not paying to see what you get monthly as a reward?

    You do realize your sub fee grants you..quite a lot of stuff, right? SE should have never offered veteran rewards, this is exactly what happens.

    You're right, they shouldn't have. Then they wouldn't have to worry about any extra cash coming in from people buying time in advance just to get the rewards. Whew, would save them alot of work where they could work on the content that people have been screaming about a lack of. Those people should also STFU cause we're paying to play and we should be happy with the content we have forever and be glad we're allowed to play at all.

    Selfish greedy people paying subs to enjoy whatever they feel like. BURN THEM ALL! BURN BURN THEM ALL AT THE STAKE!!! FILTHY MUGGLES!

    Do these rewards count for entry option subscribers, please?

    I'm more than happy with the windup Odin alone. I don't support this.

    No, it's a free gift in thanks of being a subscriber. It's really not that big of a deal.

    They could have given us a hearty "thanks", you know.

    Well... "Common" sense isn't all that common anymore, now is it?
