I’d consider doing something for Moo Deng, but her reputation has skyrocketed to an astronomical level, rendering her Hippo Calf minion in Final Fantasy XIV incredibly valuable.
You grasp her essence; she captivates your attention with an undeniable allure – meet Moo Deng, the enigmatic epitome of summer’s mystique. Since discovering her, I’ve become utterly enthralled by her presence, which has become an everyday source of joy that I fear I’ll deeply mourn when the web loses interest in her and the algorithm ceases to suggest her to me. Moo Deng’s online antics have escalated into real-life consequences, prompting fans to shell out big bucks for the coveted Hippo Calf minion in Final Fantasy XIV due to her mischievous actions.
As reported by online enthusiasts, the Hippo Calf minion initially fetched a price range of around 17,400 gil to 25,000 gil, but some individuals have taken to demanding exorbitant sums, up to 300,000 gil, for the privilege of owning it. While some models do offer a more affordable entry point at roughly $29,000, it’s likely these prices will increase once consumers realize the true value of the product. While it’s true that a demand-based economy exists in Final Fantasy XIV, exploiting unsuspecting Hyur players doesn’t sit well with many players.
As the Moo Deng’s reputation continues to soar, the official Final Fantasy XIV English Twitter account recently posted a tweet about her, featuring a gif of the Hippo Calf minion getting splashed with water, accompanied by the caption “Unbothered.” Moisturized. Pleased. In My Lane. Centered. Flourishing.”
I’m convinced the price will eventually drop, but I genuinely pity the lone Final Fantasy XIV player who has never heard of Moo Deng, who just had to buy the minion because they realized it wasn’t part of their Tiny Excellent Guys collection?
