Emotes in the cash shop..

[BreathlessTao]

Oh, just to put it in perspective:

To my knowledge, there's still no way to get the /throw emote from Christmas 2013. . . no one's complained.
Lightning Returns hairstyles and costumes are still not available. The weapons are STILL not available even from the Calamity Salvager. . . no one's complained.
You DO have to pay for wedding clothing and /embrace. . . no one's complained.
/fistbump, Twintania, and the Draught Chocobos all require networking in real life to obtain. . . Pretty sure no one complained all that much about that either.

STOP COMPLAINING!

...do you even read the forums or just pop in to post something you feel like posting?

Don't actually know about the /throw emote tbh, but I wouldn't be surprised if we could find at least one thread about it. But just guessing.
There have been too many threads about bringing back Lightning Returns event to even count. Or to make the rewards available at least. So much so that one still pops up about every two weeks, if not more often. Check your facts.
Quite a lot of people complained, actually, in quite a few threads, when we learned that most of the stuff they had shown off about EB in live letters was actually pay-only. Check your facts.
The new recruitment campaign rewards have also birthed numerous threads about their unfairness/stupidity. I'm sure some more will still pop up a little later. Check your facts.

STOP BEING IGNORANT! Or at least check your facts before trying to ignore them because they don't suit your point of view.

Same. I didn't pay a dime for it, though some people choose to "refer" themselves an alt account.

Yup. A couple friends and I that played WoW would do the self referral all the time for anything we wanted that was RAF. It helped to get a free month on the main account at least. It's just sad that people apparently think that's the ONLY option, and so they have to view it as more money they need to pay so they complain lol. So pathetic to view it that way.

I didn't pay a dime for Twintania, and those that used my codes payed for a game they obviously wanted to play, and had to pay 2 play for anyways.
So in that regard Twintania is more of less "free".

Same. I didn't pay a dime for it, though some people choose to "refer" themselves an alt account.

Yes...
Someone else had to pay it for you to get it basically...but for it to be our first endgame raid it coulda been set in savage and
a different mount entirely from RAF. Twin was hell in 2.0 lol.

If any emote should be in the Cash Shop it should be a emote worth only money and nothing is worth money than a ...

"Take my gil!" Emote (aka /takemygil )

It was my understanding that the Lightning Returns event was done twice for the Japanese release, then again for the US/EU release.

And let me clarify as someone who heavily enjoys glamours and vanity gear that I'm not saying it's not important. If people want it that bad but missed out the first time, they'll pay for it. Business 101, and let's not pretend they're not running a business here. Hell, primal mounts are vanities I can get in game and I don't have one still because I don't WANT one. I don't even like FATES, but I'll do these because I like Moonfire Faire and I want the gear.

1 euro for a vanity emote aint terrible. I have played nonstop and received all the unique items, and I would rather pay 1 euro for a unique item on the store rather than have Square Enix repeat the same Events ingame over and over, like Lightning Event that people are begging for due to the gear and hairstyles

If you dont agree with the MOG store, you are not being forced to fork over the money. Play the game and earn it ingame when it is current content, problem solved

Something I always wondered if you buy the item from the cash shop from a previous event will it be available from the calamity salvager afterwards?

[ThirdChild_ZKI]

Ok, this is purely for you, BreathlessTao:

First, don't start a rebuttal asking about checking facts then immediately admit you don't know about something. Terrible opener.

Next, I'm well aware of all the threads and requests for the LR event to come back. I did the original, and because of that, could NOT get anything from the 2nd run. At all. By most of the logic here, I can complain, right? If they add it to the cash shop, weapons and all, then I get to complain because I actually DID the event, right?

Same goes for the Valentione gear. . . I had to earn it the first year. People just bought it the next year, THEN they got to dye it too! I want my total subs between those events back.

This is obviously not serious. But I'm trying to put things in perspective. We're all entitled to nothing. Yet SE is providing at least an option to not miss out. Maybe it's not what you want or HOW you want it, but isn't it better than missing out entirely?

/bombdance was a Seasonal Event Reward and fits within the category of Seasonal Rewards being redistributed in the Mog Shop after a period of exclusivity immediately after the event.

We have received several emotes as simple patch additions before this occured, and no precedence has been broken here.

False Alarum.
