Can we please have the dress

The Problem I see here is if they do a mirror promotion like 7/11 here but limited 7/11 everywhere in NA/EU couldn't they just have separate businesses that are popular per region? it doesn't have to be 7/11 like maybe Walmart or McDonald's for NA and EU another highly populous company? I've never been to Europe so I'm not sure what is the most in terms of stores there that are the most made in areas.

This is simply not going to happen.
Japan is a tiny country where an in-store promotion can work, but they will never attempt to do something similar in diverse and much larger regions where most people don't even know FFXIV exists.
The items will come to mogstation or not at all.

I think you'd find that the "most common store" is different in different countries of EU. Meaning SE would have to negotiate, what... 50 or so different contracts? Just to make it equally available for each EU country. It's probably the same situation for NA, with not only Canada and US having different "most common store"s, but also the different states in the US being potentially unique. So Seisha is most likely right in that SE would prefer the easier route of making it available on the Mogstation... after an appropriate period of time has passed since expiration of their current 7-11 contract.

I didn't even know they had 7-11's in Japan. I stop there every day for morning coffee, I'd be up to my eyeballs in fat chocobos O.O

Saw someone on Gilga with the dress and, like, 20 people standing around looking at them, LOL. I think everyone was trying it on and getting sad.

This is what I'm imagine

They can't do that for PR reasons.

As a consumer that's not really my concern. What is my concern is that they would release a Japanese only event with exclusive items unavailable to the other giant segment of their consumer base. It's not really winning them any favors outside of Japan to exclude a giant portion of their consumer base.

Not that I'd buy this I still think in principle they have shot themselves in the foot with a damned if they do damned if they don't situation. They can't break whatever exclusive deal they have with 7/11 Japanese branches and they can't please the consumers they mindlessly left out. I'm just pointing out what a silly idea it was to release a regional event like this with what should be well known to the developers to be an item the entire player base would clamor for.

That's pretty accurate, actually. XD

Just saw two male Miqote on Zodiark with the butler gear, the crag mask and the white fat chocobo. I'm heartbroken D: They turned up to an S rank and everyone was more focused on the Miqo' instead of the S rank.
