Lightning/Snow Event

You can still get the horn in 2.0 if you have the achievement, it's in circulation and any 1.0 toons who did get it can still use it. So, that whole aesthetic argument really holds no weight.

Let me rephrase then, it's not in circulation to the mass-public, must the few who played during 1.x. And it's still a niche item. >w>

My longer post about raiding was about creating dialogue between raiders and non raiders, sorry if you felt like that was my personal statement of "to hell with everyone else, give me mah pixels." It was about a variety of motivations. Pretty sure I said the reason I raid is for the sense of challenge and story, you should go back and read the post more carefully.

...What does raiding have to do with the FFXIII items coming back and/or going in the cash shop?

Don't you think it's presumptuous of you to assume it's just simple coding to plot the item in the cash shop or to reintroduce the event?

Lastly, just because this is a fantasy world does not mean it's exempt from real life effects, such as time. Everything has a shelf life, even this game being on live servers has a shelf life. I am sorry if that concept escapes you.

Except, they've already been putting things that have "passed their shelf life" into the cash shop. About 90% of the things in the cash shop have passed their shelf life, yet SE brought them back anyway. Is it really "presumptuous" to assume they'll do something they've already been doing?

I don't know, you were the one that dragged that post into this thread 1st to make some asinine point, t'was not me.

As your "90%" stat indicates, they have left stuff out of the cash shop. So, there is a precedent for both content being retired or brought back. It's up to SE's discretion and they made their decision that this year the event was not coming back. Deal with it.

Considering this is an mmo which constantly gets newer subscribers SE can't ever pull that event down to accommodate EVERYONE. that'd be like bringing 1.0 back for the "main scenario that all subscribers got to see" during that time. To have all subscribers always have a chance at all events seems like an unwinnable battle.

This guy gets it.

When was that? >o>

They are just pixels, get over it.

Says the person who just wrote a short essay about it.

Secondly, you say "it's called reality". You do realize, this is a video game, right? As in...you know...not reality? >o>()
This isn't some one-of-a-kind, handcrafted, artisan masterpiece, it's coding. While the actual creating the 3D model is time consuming, once it is made, it's pretty easy to plop it into the game whenever, where ever. They probably didn't circulate your horn into 2.x because it would mess with SMN's horned aesthetic and it's a very niche item.

There ya go, you made that point and did not expect me to offer up a rebuttal on that?
