    Would be better if that RNG box wouldn't contain ANY tailoring materials, because this is what i get 80% of time.
    Also fun fact: i still didn't manage to pull off any animal hoodies or Sky Lantern balloons so far :D

    I guess this also applies to how I find this event useful.
    Free materials for life skill training.

    Seriously, keep those and find someone who needs them.
    Get more people to R1 of various crafts.

    Couldn't hurt.

    It has its uses though.

    I'm in the middle of training the Tailor talent, and these daily skill seals and ability to get 2x potions from boxes is a HUGE help.

    This. The skill seals are helping me to rank magic craft which is tedious as hell to rank. You don't like the event, fine. Other players will find this event extremely useful.

    Why do the event for the event only items when you can buy what you want and still have enough money left over for anything else?

    I already collected as much as i could, have few of each kind materials stacked into their pouches, kinda too annoyed to stuff my pets with extra materials since i got no more pouches... :/

    The RNG is terrible, but I did manage to get the matsuri stand for my homestead. If I can't manage to get the yukata and sandals I'll probably end up just buying them from other players, but the RNG isn't totally hopeless, just irritating.

    Iunno, I usually alt tab and play other games. Being rewarded while doing nothing feels great. :D

    it works better when you have time to actually stand around.... yesterday I was able to be around almost all day and got a cube balloon, a bunny hood, and 2 of the sweet treats. I'm not gonna have that many attempts every day though, and I'm sure others have way less time to be online. Hopefully everyone can at least get a couple things they need before it ends. it's here for a couple weeks and you can get a reward box every ingame day so I wish everyone luck :D

    I got a cow hoodie and a lantern balloon from 5. But what I really want is those matsuri lanterns.

    Underwhelming?
    Yeah, say that to the people who have yet to get any outfits or HS props because all they are getting is useless leather and fabrics.

    I think you need to look up the word underwhelming because you're literally agreeing with him while taking like you're not. I am so confused

    uh
    now I'm confused too

    Thought underwhelming had to do with the word overwhelming
    I read it as to somebody saying 'the event is relaxed and not that big of a deal', as overwhelming usually means like 'it's a lot to deal with'

    Yes, although physically the event is like nothing, mentally it's driving me insane because RNGesus hates me (i think) X_X

    I apologize because honestly I never heard of it being related to disappointing, or it being used at all in fact
    Let's just take in my last post as sarcasm and call it a day? x-x

    I think it's more like this:

    Overwhelming is like "An event that was too emotionally impacting that it stressed you out"

    Underwhelming is like "An event that left too little of an emotional impact that it was disappointing"

    Underwhelming could be used in the same way as the word "disappointing".

    So you could say "This event was underwhelming" Or "This event was a disappointment" and it would mean the same thing.

    At least that's what I've always thought.
