Only 4 eu countries can participate with the EU Gong Cha event, why SE???

[Godzillaxpowerrangers]

The closest one near me is over 3 hours away and is currently closed for renovation.

We don't have one in Austria.

This whole colaboration is simply a joke. Whoever was responsible for it should get fired right away. I can bet that person responsible for it didnt bother looking for any companies to partner up, and just went to local shop on brake talking to manager XD Their shop is not even 5 minutes away from SE offices in UK

Its literally a joke. Event clearly done just for UK citizens, not EU, cuz even as you can see other locations dont have more than 5 shops for whole country.

I never get to participate in these and I'm surprised my city in my small province has one that is actually doing this promotion. I wish they would do these somehow where everyone, everywhere could get the items.

I'm also a bit hesitant to do it because they just released the butterfinger promotion mount on twitch later anyway. You can choose the code or a keychain. I'm torn on what to choose because the digital item could be released later but I also don't use keychains.

I'm not surprised but still kinda sad that they didn't consider EU as a whole for this collab.

I mean, we Europeans are used to being ignored at this point. Last collab must have been the Dr Pepper one (I'm not counting twitch stuff). Before that there was a Gamestop collab for the maid dress and butler set that I remember in Germany. That one was kinda cool. But for a long time we've just sitting here, hearing about all the collabs NA and JP are getting.

I guess this won't be the last time either. We will probably be ignored in collabs even in the future :/

Wish they would RR Original Fat Chocobo some way other than sweepstakes too.

Never heard of them before, but apparently there's one about fifteen minutes away. Of course, I'm a Rhode Islander, so that's, like, a day trip.

Its really annoying that some execs are probably patting themselves on the back for giving the players a "global" collab so the european players can stop feeling left out for once....i just checked and my fastest way to a gong cha is a 7.5 hour trip one way lmao. after this they can go back to just doing collabs for NA and JP ig, since they filled their quota /s

I had never heard of that chain and decided to look it up. I found out that for once it's available in my country/province but they had to chose a chain that pretty much no one knows (at least outside Asia) and with very limited locations (3 in the same town). The nearest store is a 4 hour drive minimum (assuming zero traffic which is near impossible with parking found immediately) each way lol

The whole ordeal would be totally insane and on top of the cost of travel, lost time, parking, meal, those drinks aren't cheap (and I wouldn't know what to do with those as I am not a fan of bubble tea, maybe sit by the cashier and offer a free drink to three customers if I was in town and really wanted the mount lol)

[Nadda]

meh it's not that big a deal.. I think there's one in my City but I'm not all that interested same with the mountain dew mount we got going in America.

Everything ends up being obtainable through other means later on. Twitch drops, or twitter sweepstakes, or moggle tomestone events or mogstation.

So don't be too worried missing out, everything shows up eventually. Besides it's just the porxie with a crown. Just get the normal porxie it's just as cute :3 Pixie quest was so much fun! You get a whole candy playground to run around in and have fun.
