FFXIV: Starlight Celebration 2024 - In Game Event Showcase

[@FieldMarshall3]

I love the instanced zone. I always struggled with finding a good christmas themed background for gposing

[@gregbrown8881]

One thing that doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere is that if you go to Jeuno, SE replaced the background music with the Starlight Celebration version used in FF11. It really is a great song for this time of year, and might even evoke a moment of nostalgia for any former FF11 players.

Kinda wish we could spend it with one of our favorite Scions 😅❤

[@InquisitorThomas]

That would be cool but how would that work? because the Scions as individuals and an organization change quite a bit over the courses of the expansion: like if I’m in ARR would I be spending Christmas with ARR Y’shtola or Papalymo? What about a Heavensward or Shadowbringers where a significant amount of the Scions are kind of scattered or otherwise too indisposed to go on a Christmas Date in Gridania.

​@@InquisitorThomas dont see that as an issue when we have two Uranigers on the Realm, ond in Waking Sands and the other traveling with us

A place to leave my Santa alt, it’ll never close even after the event is over! And since they sell Dark Matter there, he can stay there and level by Daily Duty basically forever, the Gil rewards cover repair. Only the 3 dungeons open but he can become lvl 100.

[@nekotranslates]

So, if you stay in the instance even after event ends, then leave you'd have to wait a whole year? Wish it was a permanent instance where you can visit any time you wanted outside of events

omg this is genius lmfaooo

[@midorat6859]

Thank you for your video! That was me in the basket of apples 😅 I’m so in love with the Christmas market vibes this year!💙

[@andrewjarvis7777]

[@SuikodenGR]

Looking forward to try that place out soon 😊

[@levinoir4213]

Happy Christmas ❤ to you too Sir

[@chrisrounds1242]

I think for the fruit. You can go with crabapple. My parent’s have a crabapple tree in the front yard. It is interesting how you pronounce raspberries, but it’s pronounced as raz berries if you are interested. I still love the video.

[@ladyopheliagames]

I do wish we could dye chocobo barding. But it's cute AF.

[@mervesmsm]

Super cute glam btw

[@minakoarisato1506]

❤❤❤

[@chriserrickson1624]

no mounts?? a lot of years ago on another account i got the polar bear christmas mount, no chance of getting back that either right?

[@mintpanda1]

not unless you buy it on mog station

[@SemekiIzuio]

Item rewards rotate yearly, this year was Choco barding, last year was Santa glam with previous ones having a reindeer mount and minions so tbf its been a very long time since they gave any Christmas barding. The last barding ive seen was the post moogle and i can see us getting Halloween one next year but as for Christmas mount, they given quite a few since the brown bear one unless you mean the white bear that was Summer event

[@mrchild5588]

what custome armor did you use in your character? sorry im new player

[@Gamemaster-64]

There an emote of drinking with the new mug on an npc. Why this not an item?

[@Frogstomp333]

cause SE love their mog station items

[@cfc4221]

what leggings are you wearing??

[@Ephremjlm1]

It's cool that it's an instanced area, but like again it's ALL aesthetic based. Where is the gameplay loop? This would have been awesome to incorporate some kind of fate system or roaming notorious christmas monster pop, or idk random item pop hunt of some kind. Like SOMETHING that involves actually PLAYING the game. Saying that this isn't just fetch quests because there is more quest text or because they put it in a zone deosn't change the fact that its still just talking to npc's one after another, AKA fetch quests. Also, im gonna keep harping on this because its kinda garbage, but where are the actual holiday items that people want for housing like Christmas Trees. The only ones they have are from 2014 and 2015 which are obviously now on the store, and the handful you could maybe find on the marketboard from then are 20mil a piece. Same with the other holiday items. And did you notice? On the item text this year it says "marketboard prohibited" meaning that they are trying to maximize the cash shop roi by gatekeeping content for the game. That's utter trash considering that this constantly updated content is supposed to be what our sub is paying for, meaning that they're double dipping with our subs to create limited time cash shop items and labeling that as content. Like wtf man, this is why people are leaving.

[@tciddados]

It's kind of funny how they have the halloween house as a gpose zone, when it used to have a seasonal minigame tied to it instead. Dunno why they didn't keep the minigame around. There used to be a neat minigame for valentione's too, dunno why they got rid of that one. At least they brought back the tower for moonfire.

[@pandafanta1223]
