FOMO is a psychological dark-pattern strategy for injecting artificial scarcity into a gaming system. It is also a terrible strategy for obtaining new players into the game. As Voidmage said. A photograph is not incentive to drive player retention. A new player seeing a series of items and being told "Sorry you didn't play 8 years ago and this was only available for a 4 month period then and will never ever be obtainable by you now." Is not good for getting new players in the door.
