Moonfire Faire

[Alleo]

In case you did not know, A LOT of smaller fish stay around coral reefs and never try to swim outside of the reef zone because of bigger predatory fish. That is why bigger fish swim in open water. The tiny fish find shelter in the coral reefs with all of the nooks and crannies there so they can hide at night because of the bigger fish (some shark species go raiding coral reefs at night, so fish need to stay safe).

Well this is still a game and thus people would like to look at something beautiful and after they showed the ruby sea in the benchmark I am too a bit disappointed to see it so lacking of life. You will see some fishes but there was so much going on in the benchmark and things like the big crab and stuff like that would have felt better. I mean I do kinda wonder how the fishermen survive with such a low amount of fishes.

Also my problem with the set: First its only one (and not even the complete) set thus people still need to farm the others and I am not even sure if we now will get the other ones later. Also if you miss this event and want a dyeable dungeon gear version you will have to buy it with real money..so they put something behind an event thus also behind the mog station that is already in the game as dungeon gear. I dont think that this is a nice practice. Also the sock make it look ridiculous as swim wear. Then lets not forget that we have one completely unique asian gear in the cash shop which would have been an perfect price for this event..so they sell us the unique for real money (in an expansion that is about an asian-like region..) and only give us one incomplete dyeable set of a already existing one. And please just because you are fine with it (which is alright) does not mean that everyone has to be like that. I just cant see these events in the same eyes again after going through some in F2P MMOs..I am not saying that the tasks itself are no fun but you barely have anything to grind for in the event, thus it was over in under half an hour for me.

Yes, both of these right here are very unsettling and the crux of why I don't like their decision with this year's Moonfire Faire reward.

I suspect we may soon find dyeable versions of dungeon gear cropping up in more events so they can add it to the Mogstation...

While I have no issues with them just making a dyeable version of the Shisui set. Would it have killed them to make all options available? I know some like the sleeves or dislike the stockings.

Into an empty ocean.
They really dropped the ball with diving honestly.
Hope to see improvements because there's like NOTHING down in the Ruby Sea
minus like a shark or two. Where's all the fishies from the trailer?

Sharks must have eaten them

Love how it is just the Shisui set. Also the one that looks horrid on male characters :S.

I wanted this festival to come out, now I think I will pass on it :S.

posts lighthearted comment (but still slightly veiled request for restoration of my poor flat butt) about catgirl butts..

gets 3 pages of race inequality in advertising and bagging on the fact they aren't actually releasing the swimsuit in the picture.

.. people.. seriously:

Gear recycling aside, I want to say something about that promo art. Specifically about the miqo. ...Like, she doesn't look like a miqo'te to me. Sure, she's got ears and a tail, but she has normal eyes, a strong jawline, a faint amount of muscle definition...it's a highlander wearing cat ears. And frankly, the ears could be mistaken for part of the hair for how distinguished they are. And don't even get me started on how that pose makes no sense.

I also love how the main miqote on the promo art actually has a butt lol. There is not one female race in FFXIV that has a butt that looks that good >_>. Make it happen SE.

Well we all know what happened. We traded in butts for jiggle physics in another place.
