[Request] Please make event gear harder to get outside of in-game events.

Phew. Glad OP isn't in charge of XIV's marketing. SE would have a gaping hole where money used to be in weeks.

I don't see how you think you can extend the definition of entitlement used in the way you are using it.

Because the entire basis of your post revolves around you feeling like these unique event items have arbitrarily lesser value since someone else can buy them off the Mogstation a year later. It's the definition of entitlement. You want an item to feel special for no other reason than you believe it should be. These events are supposed to be a fun little side activity that happens to have cute items attached to it. The devs don't intend for said items to be something you can brag about participating in. Regardless, I can't speak for your server, but event participation is certainly not an issue on Balmung. We've had the damn server break because people flock en masse every time. So... I don't think the devs need to incentive these events anymore than they already do.

Exclusivity is a cancer killing gaming...

That's not how you spell accessibility or casualization. Not that I'm defending op's "muh uniqueness" mindset, but if the devs can't be bothered to work towards keeping people subbed, then what's the point of the sub. Incentivizing players to stick around is the basis of the sub model.

Why won't you share your virtual toys with me, Kosmos?

I like the exclusive achievements and titles that you can only get through the events. I know a few friends who hate that I have them and they don't due to joining a couple years after the game came out, which they can never buy.

That has to be better things to complain about.

Tbh, everyone should really start ignoring and boycotting these events now. They've evolved into half-assed clickfests and fate camping, and the items always later end up in the cash shop anyway.

Personally I feel it is a wonderful thing that these items become available at a later date in the mogstation for all those players who were not around to participate in the original event. There are various reasons dedicated players could miss an event such as being new or sickness or holiday. It is, quite honestly, a little pathetic to be complaining about this

It's almost as if you think that people who buy it on the Mog Station are somehow able to use their purchases without a subscription.

As well, I always thought a good incentive to subscribe was to be able to play the game and use items I have earned/bought.
