Moonfire Faire Nerfed Rewards

[Rainbowsaur]

For the first time in Moonfire Faire history there is no new clothing/glamour/mount*. What the?

You mean to tell me, that the first event of the big brand new expansion that brought some great graphical improvements, doesn't feature anything that takes advantage of that new upgrade? I mean that's one thing, but also suddenly an event that's always had something, now doesn't? A single emote doesn't cut it at all. It's the worse of all the years.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's being moved to the cash shop this year. And I wouldn't be surprised if half of you don't care, because alot of players have already being conditioned slowly to be ok with the cash shop, despite already being a premium priced+monthly sub game.

I could understand if it was F2P, but it isn't, it's not a cheap game, there should be more for us to enjoy for being loyal subs, if the glamour is part of the cash shop I'm fully done with this game, that'll just be the final nail for me in showing no respect for the players. Was already hitting my limit realizing how much in-game stuff gets screwed over in all fields mounts, clothing, the leveling experience, mainly quality because of the cash shop items, and events are already sparse enough as they are, and you can't even cook up new set of bathers for everyone.

They either couldn't care less about maintaining the integrity of a long time well looked forward to event, or Yoshida thought "Oh but we could put it in the cash shop". So much for being the "50 year old boy". I was already disappointing in him for a long time, but this might just be the last straw. Even if it's not his fault and it's squareenix being cheap, there is just being too many failures and under-delivery this expansion and even past expansions, that my hope was already low as hell, and it just keeps getting lower.

I'll reiterate, I'm not dunking on this game, this game itself as a story game? Great. Apart from Dawn Trail, didn't really enjoy that a whole lot and maybe starting to worry me, but anyways... the MMO side? It's always being so eugh to me, and it's never stopped getting more "eugh, ew,". This is my main problem alongside this event being nerfed, I want to see this MMO side become better but it has never once done that, and it's sorely disappointing. And nerfing events supposedly made for the players like this and setting new expectations from players on how to be appreciated, it's just layers on more eughs, when is it ever going to get better?

You should've seen 2021

Argument could've also be made about 2017 since that featured a (albeit dyeable) shisui reskin.


And then there's All Saints' Wake in 2018, being the first without glamor and instead forcing players to pick one of two minions...
Wouldn't have glamor at all until 2021.

Wasn’t it last year or the year before that we didn’t even have moonfire faire? It was sidelined as a backdrop for another event (or was it little lady day that got shafted). But well the glamour items have not been to my taste since SHB valention dresses, so it’s whatever for me.

I was hoping we'd get a glamour version of the summer shades.

I believe so far we've had a moonfire every year. I forgot about the early year events but I do know we've missed out on an All saints' over the pandemic or something.

I completely looked over that due to the mount that was given away with that, equivalent to glamour in terms of value and fun. Cute ass polar bear.

Events have always been a mixed bag when it comes to quality. It looks like the upcoming events are of poorer quality this time, unfortunately.

did you read the comments on the steams event page/tab?
It's pretty funny and bitter.

This year Little Ladies day and Hatchingtide were one event because they were too close on the calendar.

Nerfed? The emote rules and you can use it on command anywhere. Moreover, the events have always given either emotes, outfits, or mounts. No one seasonal event gives an outfit every year.

Just 'cause it's an outfit this year doesn't automatically mean good, or higher quality. When was the last time you used the clown suit from Halloween?

Not to mention, it's an entertaining enough side story to go through. It's alright content and more importantly free rewards. Hard to believe people are complaining about that.

There are a lot of critiques I can lay at SE but how they handle their seasonal events is not one of them.

Considering moonfire faire is one of the... Bigger events of the year that people generally look forward to - this being a "one week pump and dump mobile gacha" style 'event' is **not** good.

The permanent monster hunter event is better than THIS.

No one cares. if you are not happy just unsub.

I'm happy enough it's not attached to some retarded FATE. Now those are what really gotta go.

Goodlord, what a painful read. "Entertaining enough" is such a copium thing to say too, and it says so much about you. If you can't find the power to criticise anything to do with their events, I'm sorry but there's simply something wrong with you.

Free reward(s.).. haha... It's literally the MOST lazy of moonfires since the game inception, on one of the biggest updates to the graphics ever since, but ok, totally expected a lowzy emote. Might I remind you last year was a stupid power ranger outfit 1% of people want, where they split the emotes that suit it off onto the cash shop too instead of including them? They new what wouldn't sell and gave it to us. Just worse and worse... Eugh.

Am I uncritical, or are you just a baby? It's literally a free seasonal quest. Entertaining is enough is more than fine; being more than skipbait is perfectly acceptable. What do you expect? To be moved to tears every summer? Get a grip, brother, it's the Moonfire Faire, lol

Before the lame power ranger outfit was just a (cute) reskin of the Warrior bear. Not exactly an inspirational reward either. I'll grant Moonfire has had strong showings, but then so has Halloween and they entirely missed Halloween one year, so thinking anything is a pattern or forming an expectation is just signing yourself up to make angry steam threads over free content.

Explain to me the emote and the cash shop conspiracy you've cooked up. You sure can't stop talking about it.
