Final Fantasy Tactics items on Mogstation... THREE whole sets?

[Nyastra]

I thought one of the reasons for a collab was to make something known for the playerbase, as some sort of publicity.

I personally had no idea what Monster Hunter was before the collab here, and only got to experience it because I got to know it in FFXIV.

I understand that idea and the logic. But I feel like that's rarely ever the case. MH is extremely popular, as is NieR. People won't do something that doesn't interest them. If they were to make this an in game collab with these same rewards, many won't do them aside for maybe the music rolls. The gear is a very specific type of vibe, and definitely not for everyone. If there was some sort of mount reward, then I think more people would definitely go for it, but glam is a very slippery slope for a collab.

Is this kind of thing so rare to occur? I feel we'd need concrete data to analyze what impact those collabs have.

Also I always had the impression (by the reactions) the community is more driven for glamours above anything else, because even if you may not like a collection as a whole, sometimes there's a lot of value in the standalone pieces (assuming whatever we get is not an 1-piece set).

It's very normal, and I don't know what that person is talking about. XIII, XV, and XVI are at worst hated and at best financial failures, but all of them had small collab events(and XVI is/was supposed to get a second at some point) and glamour among other things. XI had two events with a glamour set, other cosmetics, and then extra cosmetics in Eureka and now the alliance raids. With Ivalice and both of its major eras being part of the setting, there's no good reason(from our standpoint, unless you own SE stock) for these to be cash shop exclusives.

I am disappointed that these didn't get added to the Ivalice Raid we already have in-game. Would've been nice to have an incentive to run older content.
