    1.23 was a good, very passable game that still was fundamentally flawed (it still had the terrible cut and pasted zones which were virtually empty, the terrible connection issues, the laggy interface) - ARR may not be perfect but it is still light years ahead of anything that 1.0 accomplished (which for everything it did right it did so many more things wrong). But this discussion isn't about if 1.0 was good or not, its about once-only bonuses coming back, which I completely disagree with.

    That is life - there will always be times where there will be something offered for a short time and it's a case of "get it while they last". If you're too late or unable to get it at that time for any reason, well, it's too bad.

    The original goobue mount and the Legacy chocobo are examples of this, they were rewards for those who stuck with the game in it's darkest hour when SE needed the support. That was their whole purpose. If you didn't get them when they were available then you have missed out I'm afraid.

    Thus they will always be exclusive - if SE ever did bring them back they would alienate the very fan base that actually stuck with them in the time they needed them the most, something no company would ever be that stupid or arrogant to do.
