SQ Ruined Christmas!

If only there was a thread already about this...oh wait I found it on the front page.

You suck as a company and I wouldn't play if it weren't for the friends I made.

You wouldn't be playing if they let this continue and companies started to refuse to allow SE to take any form of payment.

Wait... I thought you could still gift people stuff as long as you're friends with them for 72 hours? How does this ruin anything? Shouldn't those people already be on your friends list/couldn't your FC just be like "hey everyone participating, make sure to add everyone else participating to your friends list"?

You can gift fantasia, level skips, story skips, dyes and a few other consumables.

Mounts, costumes, minions, emotes, music, are all cut off.

Ah, thanks for the correction.

The mog station being to gift friends minions and emotes was a nice and inclusive way for us to include friends with lower income but still wanted to participate.

I'm confused. FC events that encourage spending real money at the cash shop is a good thing for people with low income??

I mean, this just makes it sound like you didn't like the game even before the MogStation change, so what difference does it make? And... you're mad you can't keep giving more money to the "suck" company who makes the game you don't want to play?

For now, Shibi. This is temporary until they can get a handle on the matter. I dont doubt for a moment they want that system back up and running ASAP.

Indeed!

My hope is that if this was some form of urgent action, and with the pressure off a little, they can get handle on it and can do it properly later.

I am hopeful that this is just "the sky is falling", and by Christmas it's all fixed. And honestly, for me, I don't mind if friendlist restrictions, but do want unlock of everything.


Also, just to nobody in particular, the thought of SE as the grinch made me giggle.

Welcome to the Final Days of Mogstation.

With Venat sundering the gifting options to prevent RMT bots from ruining the game any further.

Given that it's a revenue stream it does indeed make sense to assume this will be reversed eventually, and this story will end with:

"And what happened next, well, down in Limsa they say,
That Square's small heart grew three sizes that day...."
