Lightning Event 2015?

[xLucia]

I wouldn't mind having another Lightning event in the game. I love the FF13 series so it sure won't bother me

While they're bringing it back, why not give everyone the legacy status and tattoos as well? It doesn't bother anyone.

It 's called a limited time event, yet they've already brought it back 3 times. Personally, I don't care if they bring it back permanently or whatever, but some others might not feel that way.

As someone who got all of the items the first time it came out.... I actually wouldn't mind them bringing it back. They were good FATE designs after all.

Regarding the rewards, these really should be accessible in some way (either via event or vendor). It's clear we have players who are just worried about losing their special snowflake status of having exclusive items.

Using "Limited" anything should be taken with a grain of salt. Limited Editions. Limited Time. Yes, I understand that not everyone is going to feel the same, it just kinda baffles me as to what actual harm could it possibly bring? Why does it matter?

The Legacy thing actually has more value than I would say Lighting's Event does. But this is just a personal opinion because value is subjective. But I'm sure everyone can agree it's just people wanting their items to be Rare and that no one else can get them. Once they become available, people adapt and just shrug it off and move on because in reality, it's not that important.

You just answered your own question. Value is subjective. That's why the some people who have already experienced the event(3 friggin' times) may not want to bring it back.

You also can't just say that once it becomes available, people will just adapt and move on. That's not how it works, maybe not for the lightning event, but especially not for the legacy status.

Right. But no one is telling these people to participate in these events. Bringing back the event was in reference to those who have not experienced it. There's no real reason for them to say No save Value of their items. If they brought it again, people that participated will probably, at most, roll their eyes and continue on their merry way.

Really? I can't? Isn't that what we do in the end? Adapt to the situations given to us and make the best of it or overcome the trials presented before us? The difference is that some people adapt faster than others. Would anyone outright quit this game if Legacy status was given to everyone? More than likely not. Will they feel upset? More than likely, yes. Are they going to forget about eventually? Yes until something brings it up. Depending on the person, they may just shrug it off or harbor a grudge. I can't speak for everyone. There's very little in this game where the value doesn't deteriorate over time.

The point I wanted to make is that everyone is going to forget about it in the long run because there's more pressing matters at hand.

i don't think they will bring it back. with the event we got the hairstyle, clothing and WEAPONS. but there is no weapon for ninja, dark knight, astro and machinist. so square have to make them or these classes come to the forum and create topics like: "Where is my weapon?! thanks SE" ... or something like that c.c,,

if square bring the event back - again - they only can lose. and next month after the event there is a new topic from a begger who missed the event...

You underestimate people. That is just EXACTLY what some of them might do. Not only might some legacy players leave, it'll also damage SE's reputation and get labelled as a company that doesn't deliver its promises.

All you 'old timers' who were playing this game back when those events happened could just, y'know, NOT participate this time? I heard the FATEs were really cool and I, for one, would love to own Snow's outfit and get a few of those weapons for glamours. [as well as some cool screenies of Lightning in action]

And you overestimate people. That is exactly what some of them might NOT do. I'm not dismissing the people that will quit. That's why my answers left room for possibility and not answered with 100% Yes or No. People are playing the game because a number of reasons, however, I HIGHLY DOUBT it's because of their Legacy Status(unless the pay less a month makes it easier, then there's that).

SE's reputation and promises are irrelevant to this topic as this is going to tread into a different topic completely.
