Aren't holiday quests a waste of development time and effort right now?

[Abriael]

Lol just watch. You'd better be paying attention too, because I don't want you to do the same thing for 1.18 and 9.

I'm sure that you're aware that what you want doesn't really hold much importance to me

[TheVedis]

Pure gold right there. ^.^b Thanks for the laugh.

i was bored and had to do it lol

You all are honestly being sheep right now. Ship's sinking and you're happy to piddle around with egg trades, singing about that one fine day when this patch is gonna make the egg hunt look like nothing.

Then when your hopes and dreams get shattered and all the patch IS is an egg hunt...well nothing happens. You love that kind of thing anyway, because SE made it and therefore it's great content that everyone should be happy they have. Nothing ever happens to that kind of person who forgets they were wrong. SE knows exactly what to say and how to break nothing's to you all. They've been practicing for 8 years. You don't have a chance obviously.

Hopes and dreams being shattered.. over a game? ......Really?? lol
And when I'm given something I say thank you, even if it's not exactly what I had in mind. It's not a big deal really.
If you don't like the game you don't have to play it. If you enjoy it, keep having fun. That's all there is to it.

[Peregrine]

So are you implying the game is never going to get better and you're hanging around the forums....for what again?

Lol if people like me leave the game's pretty much done. I'm some of the last remaining hope. You're no help. You'll take any junk and love it. You're also a rank 30. I've carried a lot of the game on my shoulders so far. More than you that's for sure.

The only real utility of an egg hunt in this dire situation is to comfort the fanboys as we all go under. Otherwise, now is not the time.

And when one runs out of arguments, resorting to personal attacks is the next option.

besides the point but... did it ever occur to you that some (actually quite a lot, considering the crowd of people I see in game whenever a seasonal event comes) people actually enjoy seasonal events simply because they're fun, something different to do, and providing some nice collectibles to hoard?
If seasonal events were as useless and unimportant as you describe them, why EVERY single MMORPG developer in the world implements several of them?
You know, even developers with games in good shape have further fixing, mechanics and content to work on. So why do they use part of that time for seasonal events?

SE is working for a wide variety of people, with varied taste. The fact that they implement something that doesn't fit YOUR taste, doesn't mean that it's pointless.

I'm some of the last remaining hope.

Well then I'll do you the service of sending it back. People like you encourage poor-quality products.

*facepalms*

I had the same reaction to that statement. XD

Already destroyed that argument, so yeah all that's left is slight jabs at your poor performance. I told you I have mandragora belts with the rest of the clan. I told you FFXI deserves the right to hold holidays. I told you this game doesn't, and I told you why it doesn't.

You just sit there and watch what happens to 1.17. do that first, then we may continue.

So once again you're admitting that you have no hope for the game. I ask you again, why are you still here? Yeah you're a hell of a lot higher than me in a lot of classes, does that mean your opinion holds more weight than mine? Pretty obvious you've burnt yourself out on the game, take a break come back after some changes if thats the case.

Btw everytime you call someone a fanboy, you obviously make yourself look better and better. I suggest you keep it up.
