The event duration was too short and the rewards were too valuable to have missed. Some subscribers can't play weekly yet are members that deserve to witness the player appreciation event! I believe that these event rewards were some of the most valuable of all events and am remiss to think that I'll never access them, or at best, must wait an entire year.

This event "The Rising" I was unable to attend for uncontrollable circumstances and this caused me to miss some cutscenes, a couple minions, and most importantly, the "Concentration" card-match MINI GAME. I desire access to this content any way possible, even if I had to buy the MINI GAME / minions from mog station..

Attempting to access FFXIV out of state caused my account to be frozen during the event. It is upsetting that there wouldn't be another chance, or more time available for those that had similar situations yet all deserved to participate - especially those having been active members since 2.0 or earlier.
