Summer event is here and...it's just talking to some npc, wander around getting one item and coming back. Tadá! You got your emote, see you in the next unworked and totally unpassionate seasonal event.
Since..i don't know, 2018 or 2019 the seasonal evens have been totally uninspired, just talk twice with some NPC, run around the city, come back and that's it. Looks like the devs are doing those things just because they have to and not because they want/care? So...maybe if instead of having so many small and pointless "season events" we had like...3 major ones (summer, halloween, winter...?) they would be better? With more interesting stuff and content? I remember the halloween one had us going to versions of Haukke Manor and solving some puzzles. Other events had some wierd fates involved scattered around Eorzea, in one we had to even play with some ingame toys...I don't know...maybe the word EVENT should really mean something more than "talk to 2 npc and that's it".
At this point it looks like they doing this kind of stuff just so they have an excuse to put those cosmetics in the mogstation in the future. A shame.
