Cute event. More interactive seasonal events please!

This!

Sorry, but I'm going to acknowledge the fact that the Devs seem to have actually listened to feedback here. There were a LOT of complaints, on various platforms, pertaining to the seasonal events all following the pattern of 'talk to NPC-A who sends you to talk to NPC-B, C and D and then report back to NPC-A.

I mean, recently, we've had:
- The Starlight Stalls
- The resort 'fun' ship for Moonfire Faire
- A version of Haukke Manor for All Saint's Wake
- The Pâtisserie for Valentione's Day
- The current (at the time of this post) Little Ladies Day 'support your favourite'

All which add something extra to the events.

I, for one, am looking forward to seeing if they add something new to Hatching-tide.

That reminds me of the Tonberry themed one they did one year.

It was legitimately surprising seeing so many people in an ARR zone that wasn't related to a hunt train.

Enjoyable event. Though I wish they had also included normal-sized shirts.

Yeah, it's a fine Fate, but I didn't find it super fun, so I'd like at least like 6 tokens each sigh.

Also, I'm not planning to get tons of trees, but I like the other rewards were great even if the idol shirts were p terrible imho.

[Aidorouge]

I do appreciate that they gave us SOME level of interactivity/a mini-game like the Valentine's event.

Even though I don't really want most of the rewards, I was willing to play it more than once and ended up with most of the rewards anyway, which we need more of.

"Hey, this is a little fun."
"Oh, are you here for the prizes too?"
"...There were prizes?"

I'm happy getting more lightstick emotes.


I thought the event was nice and engaging, I'm glad you have to keep doing the FATE to get items instead of just buying them all with gil right away. And it spawns fairly quickly so you don't have to stand there for 20 minutes, although I did wonder if the spawn rate might be tied to how many people are currently participating, since you effectively pre-join the FATE by talking to the NPC. Also the NPC should probably have some kind of purple FATE/quest marker over her head.


This event kinda reminds me of the Fantastic Fraulein Mumor events from FFXI, as well as some others, mostly because they also have you participate in the event by doing emotes at performing NPCs to cheer them on. This seemed like a pretty good equivalent of that (except those are magical girl stage shows and this is an idol concert).

A pretty solid event. The worst thing is having to wear those pants.

Another chore that we could live without. And so greedy on trees, if you want multiple, you have to grind for few hours. Would be okay if we had to do fate once then could buy everything via gil, but it's clearly made with intent to make tree farm harder to prevent hoarding as much as possible to ensure mog station sales of these trees will have a good rate.

The art of over exagerating. "A chore". "grid for few hours". This is nothing like that.

Fates spawn every 4 minutes and last 3. It's 15 fates an hour, so 60 certificates, or 20 trees an hour.

With 1h15 of fate I had every reward + 10 trees. I don't see that as a chore or that hard.

I might go get a few more trees, but I don't expect to stash 100 of them.

If your plan is to resell some in the future, I find it totally fair that you have to work for them.
