    It’s funny how you try to discredit the very feelings that I experience.

    Discredit what? I said everything you mentioned is an evergreen system, that wont ever go away, it’s objectively and literally the contrary to a FOMO

    You have to wait months, sometimes years for stuff to come back. Then you have just a short time window that is purely based on insane grind due to stupid RNG mechanics to actually get the relics you want. And with every additional frame they add the pool of relics increases, making the things you need even rarer.

    A whole month would be short if you werent able to get the Aya for that particular rotation beforehand, which you can, stack as much of it as you may want, you can always use the relics after it ends, the reason for the timegate it’s literally to make it easier to grind, if all Prime Warframes were avaiable at the same time, Recruitment would be hell and you overall chances of acquiring anything die away, just like it would be if the Vaulting system didnt exist and we had the 2 Thousand Types of Relics inundate all Drop Tables

    It requires me to log in frequently to grind to not miss out on the content locked behind it. Whether I want to do it right now or not doesn’t matter, and when I want to do it I have to constantly wait. If you can’t see how stupid this is then I don’t know how to help you.

    My brother in Christ, you are literally talking about Progression, that is not FOMO, You can do it whenever and the content behind it wont ever go away, you’re not “missing out” you’re “yet to achieve” by any means, it’s like any other Reward in the Game, do a Mission, Get Rewards but there are more Missions to complete before the reward, but it’s never going away

    If you lock very mandatory stuff for various builds behind something that only happens once for a short time per year, then yes, that’s causing FOMO. And no, the original events only happened once, including their participation rewards.

    You are straight up wrong and you know it, or lying now. Not a single Relevant Event Reward is unobtainable or otherwise inaccessible. All “original events” rewards (60 60 Mods) are available elsewhere in the star chart, or trading, Acolyte Mods are available in Deimos, Hunter Munitions on Ghouls Purge which happens every 4 Fucking days. Not to mention reruns of those events are pointless since they were testings for new gamemodes, that are all implemented as regular gameplay by now. If you were to have mentioned Scarlet Spear you would be barely close to right and even then it’s rewards arent exclusive or locked to it. There’s no FOMO other than Lore or Experience which you didnt even mention.

    Funny because even the devs like Steve called it a battlepass. If you require me to play daily then that makes the game a job, a chore. That’s not casual. It dictates when and how I have to play and “incentivizes” me through rewards I’ll miss out on. That’s absolutely not how things should be done. An incentive is something that makes me WANT to play, not something that makes me feel that I HAVE to play.

    Battle Pass, by definition, is a Monetization system, in Warframe it is not, thus it falls in the category of “Event” as any other with it’s own Progression. As funny as what Steve said is. I never said you need to play Daily to Complete it, I just mentioned that I do complete it by playing casually (i.e not specifically aiming to complete it) by my margin of 1 Hour Max a Day (not even every day) therefore, if you were to either play for longer than me, or specifically play to complete it, you sure as shit would have no problems on doing that in one sit of the whole 8 Months a specific instance lasts, because all the Weeklies you “miss”, you can unlimitedly recover, you literally can do 8 Months of Objectives in 12 Hours if you have the guts to it, there’s nothing of FOMO and even if you did achieve no rewards in one Instance, you can and will get them in another like i’ve been enabled to

    I will. But I was fully expecting some kneejerk fanboy getting defensive about it anyway. lol

    Am I a fanboy? Sure enough, as long as it continues to be the most Pro-Consumer Game with the best Monetization Practices out of anything available in the Market Today I will continue to cheer it, I like to discuss it and I think we are here for that? But that aside i’ll continue to be critical about it on it’s goods and bads, which for the latter, FOMO is not one of them
