The Rising - Another disappointing event

[Asari5]

people seem to think everything is allright because EW release is pretty late... thats not how it works xD.
they still want it to be released as soon as possible so they put it on a date as early as they can realease it while working at the limit

Im sad too, while i dont expect an glamour, some small thing wouldve been nice, an ring or bracelets... also some housing item or at least the posters, remember this is the last Rising during 5.x... Some artwork at least, please? Q_Q


Also just like the moonfire fiar, its the first one for a lot of new players and its not makign a good first impression... id love smt that reused the fate we had some years ago...

You realize the devs are working their asses off on endwalker due to how much covid pushed them back right?
Be glad we're getting events at all, they could have gave us nothing.

Y’all are the same ones using the covid excuse for lack of content when it was already missing before covid hit. Please stop using the excuse as much as you are, they themselves have said they’re working at 95% efficiency and they took months delay to make up for it. As if it really would’ve killed them to make a minion for the event? Really?

I wasn't expecting much from this Rising event for one reason:

It's the third Rising within ShB patches. If their schedule hadn't been pushed me back by delays, this likely would have been shortly after EW release and had a wind-up [6.0 character that everyone loved] bit instead we're still a few months away.

This event simply wouldn't have been in the roadmap for 5.0 to 6.0 development, but it's the anniversary so can't really be cancelled so we have to make do with what can be thrown together quickly.

If you were expecting an outfit with 'The Rising' event then that's on you for building your own expectations, as others have said outfits have never been rewarded with 'The Rising' with exception to 2018 which rewarded earrings, but earrings do not an outfit make.

I don't think it's an unreasonable expectation to desire bigger and better things over time. Especially when competitors don't seem to be struggling to offer unique rewards each time their respective seasonal events swing around.

Everyone mentioning outfits. How about the damn minion we’re supposed to get every time. They know how popular an Emet minion is and they really couldn’t have made one?

Mayhap they're waiting to let us get one during a msq? Or they're going to make emet selch plush so we can hold him and squeeze him and make him do his goodbye wave. ☆_☆.

Ahem excuse me while I go squeal at the thought of an emet plush....

[Duskane]

you think they are gonna give out a Emet selch minion for free?
he is 100% gonna be a lore/Art book or CD bonus item minion
that man will sell those alone
