    Why not get both?

    It's not like the game doesn't have a perfect vendor to hand out old event rewards at (Gold saucer) Not only would it give players a reason to continualy participate in things like the cactpot it gives the saucer and seasonal events themselves a constantly building base to grow on. Instead of being a small event every year they can do what they are doing add a new item and event and keep the old rewards on a vendor or just shunt them to the gold saucer on their off season god forbit they continue to build on systems they introduce to the game instead of leaving them for dead for half a year.

    They don't have to add them at all. They could easily say "tough luck, you missed the event so you miss the items."

    There are very few exclusively offered items on the mogstore. Fantasia and namechange are very reasonably there. I don't really agree with Sleipnir and the other store-only minions (but those are no different than the plushy-given ones or the soundtrack ones) because I think those should be attainable in game at first.

    But old holiday things? Let them be on the mogstore because it's a convenience being added for those people who initially missed the event.

    That would be in interesting idea, placing them on MGP would ensure players are able to get them, but not buy them cheaply for Gil, while the Cash Shop would still exists as an easier method (You did mention the Cactpot, so I would assume these would be Cloud/Fenrir tier of expensive at least)

    I don't care what they do with the cash shop as long as the items are atainable in the game (Even the physical reward ones should be attainable at as mentioned the highest tier) Let seasonal event items start of as pricy as the gambler set and every season drop in price or become cheap during that seasonal events timeline (IE Halloween stuff gets cheap MGP when it's All Saints Wake)

    Seasonal Items should be cheaper than physical items of course but I'd leave that up to SE to decide the MGP price if they still felt like nickle and diming customers it would be high though.

    I'd rather pay $3-5 for old event items rather than farming 1,000,000 MGP. If it was one or the other, I believe cash shop is the better option.

    And why is this such a bad thing to start with? Honest question.

    Because people would complain that they didn't even get a chance to do the event? Thus adding to the list of complaints that already plague this forum? I mean were you here when the whole lightning event thing happened? It was one side upset that they never got the chance, and the other upset because they didn't want to same event back or whatever their reason was.

    I don't actually care either way. I make most of the events since I play regularly and don't unsub. If they did go the tough luck route, people would be griping up and down the forums about not having a chance to get the items because they were busy fighting wars overseas.

    They already have. Various and sundry gear pieces, the "Legacy" Chocobo, non-maimed Goobbue, Cait Sith Doll and every minion tied to an expired merchandise voucher says, "Hi!".

    Yep. And I don't mind any of that.
