Another year without Rainmaker Hairstyle

[Yandere-chan]

A good reason to just make it available at the Gold Saucer. Would probably take 5 minutes.

While it would be nice, they consistently have put past event items up on mogstation so it's not unexpected for them to want to do it that way now. On the plus side, if they go through the trouble of making a hair section, it might encourage them to develop more hairs if they think they can get a financial return on the effort.

While I understand wanting to make as much available in game as possible, I certainly am of the crowd who believes it's overall better for them to include more hair styles with monetization vs. just not making more hair styles. If I have to pay a bit for them to be motivated to do it, I am willing to do so. As it was mentioned earlier in this thread, there are hairs I would love to be made available to us that are already in game technically. E.g. Hilda's, Iceheart's, Yotsuyu's, Gaia's, Ryne's, maybe even some of the boss's.

I would prefer if they would stop being afraid of releasing more clip-prone hair and let us, the playerbase, decide if it's worth it or not for us on an individual basis. If they started to normalize adding such hairs via the online store, maybe they would be willing to expand what they tend to offer.

With that said, I don't actually think this would cause them to release less free hairs than they already do, which isn't very many. Clearly, when it comes to in-game rewards, they don't currently believe releasing a large volume of hairstyles is worth the extra time/cost vs. other things. This ties into what I said before, that maybe this would change if financial exchange became a factor. I do feel like this would be a big win for us if that ended up being the case.

Regardless, I've been wanting the Rainmaker hair for a long time now, so I will gladly take any option over having to wait yet another year to maybe have it available next event cycle.
