    Topic on exclusive items

    Is it just me, or do people fight with me alot on this topic? Does it happen to anyone else?

    Exclusivity. We all love it dont we? Yes

    But however some people tend to get very salty and get nasty and rude to others who say "I wish ___ would return. I never got a chance to do it! I really want ___"

    After that statement, the people who have said item roll in and start saying things like NO. YOUCANT HAVE IT BECAUSE ITS OVER. YOU SNOOZE YOU LOSE


    Or they say it kindly, which is alot better. Some have it and dont care if others do, etc.

    Then there are people who scream and whine that they dont have it. (I wont lie Ive done this before)

    Im bringing this up because of my moogle attire thread, Ive been getting alot of crap because of salty people coming and saying I cant have it because it needs to stay special etc etc and Ive gotten rude back, but I just gave up. If i get hate there ill just be kind and say thank you for the input.

    Am I only one with these problems?

    i am just tired of the people. they will ask every week the same question. and then, IF they would bring the lightning event back for example, we will have the same topics again and again just a week after the event ended c.c

    Let me just say that I think exclusivity with digital items is one of the silliest things I've heard of, they usually exist for the sole purpose of getting a large influx of money in a short period of time. The only thing I believe should be "exclusive" are items that are incredibly hard to earn, whether due to long grinds or whatever else. Like the Kirin, except it should never be nerfed. That's the only point that exclusivity actually starts to mean something.

    I get that. I only asked once on the forums and some people werent exactly kind, but some were.

    I missed the events back then because I didnt know this game existed, theres no way I can miss those events now and if I do well I cant complain lmao

    I agree with you. A lot of people get really butthurt on these forums for a simple questions.

    Here's an idea! If you don't want to read a thread about the same topic, DON'T CLICK ON IT. it's really that simple. They just want to be rude for no reason. Ignore them though, sadly there's people like this in every online game.

    The interesting part here is why people think the exclusivity of the items should be preserved. ---Opinions incoming---
    In the case of the moggle attire it was supposed to be an "I was there item" funny thing is most people I know who have it didn't even touch the live stream/event it was associated with, they might as well have just bought a cash shop item, this I find pretty rediculous to keep exclusive.
    In the case of the legacy items l, its kind of justifiable, when you examine what it really was. A thank you gift for investing in what is generally considered a substandard product and keeping it from colapsing While we try to make it worth something. I would probably seem biased since I actually have these, but I would note that for the most part don't use them, nor care to.
    The FF13 items could go either way, their sole intent for value return was promotion of another game. The intent was to provide an advertisement on the cheap to sell something for $60 a pop. Personally I think it is dumb they arn't handing these out from the calamity salvager regardless of completion status, sure the value is deminshed from SE stand point, but advertising is still advertising.

    Wah! I got the Gobbue legacy mount on one character but not another! Wah, I want to be special!

    Sorry, I'll admit sometimes that I'll see someone with event gear that I didn't participate in and I'll wish I had participated...but I'm not gonna complain about it. I just won't miss future events.

    Literally just posted this on your other thread, but here we go.

    A quick way to lose faith and respect amongst your paying customers would be to start releasing "exclusive" items that come from events / special purchases to the general playerbase. Essentially, these items are a little "thank you" to customers for spending additional money (either through events, buying CDS, preorders, whatever) outside of your subscription fee.

    There seems to be a lot of entitlement that floats around with the crowd who thinks all items should be released to everyone. Outside of showing up to conventions, just about everything else is available easily to those who want to pay for it.

    Yes, exclusive items exist to make money. That is absolutely correct. And they make less money if people don't trust that they are exclusive. That's how business works!
