Why is the Cruise Chaser mount from the Mogstation?

[Masekase_Hurricane]

Well if it was a Savage reward, it would've been there since HW... And Ultimate for Alexander's been out already for a while so wasn't gonna be added in there retroactively I guess...

As for why Mogstation? I would guess because it's a 2 seater. Square seems to be really afraid of letting people have multiple seated mounts for free.

LMAO what? Theres loads of multiple seater mounts for free.

Cause it is a business? I'm ok with it being a mogstation reward because the ingame rewards are cool also. The only time I personal care about cash shop is when the quality of ingame rewards pays the price for it. In this game it does not. So I'm ok with them making more money.

It was a fairly slow realization based on how this thread evolved over time:
https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...-Chaser-mount?

"It's a Fete box reward"
No.
"It's a top 100 Feast rewar-"
No.
"It's from collecting all Triple Triad ca-"
No.
"Someone said 100% Save the Queen compl-"
No.
"Hopefully MGP Make it Rain rewar-"
No.
etc.

Kudos to the 2-3 people who called it being a mogstation reward back then. Considering how most of the people there unanimously didn't want it being a Feast reward, this isn't particularly a bad result.

Well at least it's not a top 100 Feast reward, and for that I'm glad.

1: Money.

2: Better it's on the online store then if it had been something like a "Feast" reward where only very few people would be able to get it.

This is super disappointing. I expected better decisions from the team. This feels pretty off

[Pelletier]

It didn't have to be Top100 Feast nor an store mount., it could've been earned from anywhere, some ideas:
- The Twinning rare drop
- Mog Hunt item
- Rival Wings achievement reward
- Savage grind reward
- Ultimate clear reward
- MGP item

This shit is scummy, we're already buying the game, paying our sub monthly and paying for essential videogame services like changing your name or moving servers. It's one thing to sell old event mounts, recolor mounts or non-lore mounts... but selling one of the most anticipated raid boss mounts is terrible.

Square, I hope you aren't going the Blizzard way.

Eden was already the savage reward from E12S. Cerebus is the reward from DR Savage.

Plus they have to finance paying above market rates for the new servers somehow. All money from Mogstation goes back into the game.

What about putting savage rewards on the mog station too? maybe tittles and also housing, so everyone with cash will able to get it.

Nah that's not the way it works. We remove those from the game and put them exclusively in the mog shop.
