struggling to finish the msq

[korkk]

i just got to solution nine and i just couldnt care less about whats going on in the msq anymore. i knew i shoulda called it quits at endwalker anyone else feel the same?

[Arbor]

I just started skipping cutscenes around the level 94 quests. By that point I just accepted that the writing was meant for children so I wouldn’t enjoy it. I was tuned out for most of them anyway.

I cant find the quot but i am 100% sure yoshi said something about if dawntrail is not well liked they would wrap it up faster

I pray to jesus this true and not fabricated, get this garbage out of the way retcon having nuked Golbez 4 minions and make a void expansion for the love of christ.

Or, Give us access to the other reflections . . I specifically want to see the one Spectral Necromancer is from.

NGL if they pulled an "it was all a dream while the WoL was in a coma" from 6.0 on, Zero never existed, the scions actually disbanded never to be seen again, we never met Wuk, and we end up on any other reflection solo with no babysitting annoying af characters I'd be... well not happy but less annoyed than I am currently.

This MSQ is the pits and the "writers" that poured out this drivel should feel bad for penning it, let alone shoving into a game. And shoehorning this bloody awful fanfic into FF14 is unforgivable.

Honestly they could do that, From point after you defeat Vauthry. "The Warrior of light in their coma fueled by the lights embrace (Poison) fever dreamed the conclusion to everything. It's been (X) Years as time passed sadly his companions aether ran dry and they faded away never to be seen again, The Gate to the first long gone our brave warrior must explore an unfamiliar world and attempt to return to his reflection"

"Enter a journey spanning Novrandt in a more reclaimed state, Explore remnants of the old world, journey onto other reflections and make new allies while making your way back home"

Would give them an excuse to make an actual 13th reflection based expansion, Give us access to Necromancer job after we venture into Spectral Necromancers Reflection & actually give us a chance to fight Garlemald like they teased instead of disgustingly poor conclusion to 10+ yr story.

Dawntrails would be miles better if we weren't glued to Wuk "Marie Sue" Lamat all expansion, if we spent more time with other, more interesting and charming characters like her brothers, her dad or even have more focus on Krile and her grandfather or Erenville, it wouldn't be such a slog to go through.

Yay I'll be glad when all you guys finally unsub!

You mean another Stormblood situation where the player base is suddenly halved and CS3 desperately struggles to get the game back on track? For that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of an MSQ, they'd deserve reverting back to that point, even though it might kill off SE as a whole for good when their cashcow declines

Same, I Still think our character shoulda died with Zenos at the end.

Woulda opened up tons of doors if they just forced fantasia consumption followed by fresh character creation (Visual) you can retain your stuff, gil, equipment, ETC.

But no longer held by constraint that you're WoL, That you know the scions so they will just puppy dog follow you around every where.

Idk bout you, But i'm very tired of Scions being in every thing it enables very lazy storytelling. I Thought we were free at end of EW and then Post started, Immediately back to the scions.

Such a joke.

Thats the dumbest idea I've heard yet. Create a new character to "inherit" all the things your WoL accumulated? who would even sign that paperwork?

Wtf would be the point in passing down everything to a new character, i want one giant mary sue!

Yeah, I was so happy to see that short adventure with Erenville... But then ♥♥♥♥ happens and we back to her again...

If only they focused on OUR adventure across Tural and not assign us to backstage babysitter. The story would be fine. Make us travel, discover the cultures and somewhere in the middle of third zone meet Lamat and decide to help her after hearing from locals in previous zones how other participants acted...

Honestly, in the first part she wasn't even necessary. We could take her out completely, do our own adventure across the south (literally spam us with dungeons/trials for the sake of adventure) and then go north. The thingy appears and we go back to the capital to help out and thats where we meet her for the first time and get "bonding" experience.

all i can see from the posts so far is that the setting which they´ve choosen is just not to your likes, hence ya dont like it.
but like i said, ya cant make it for everyone right.

Setting is fine, writing is terrible, while there are people hating on the expansion either because of the story or Wuk Lamat the majority hate the writing itself and its disingenuous to disregard them and their opinions.

I find the first half of the story offensive towards intelligence of the customers. They really went for story designed for 10 year old Pokemon enjoyer.

Pokemon? I'm not sure how far into the story you are but at lvl 96 you get to see beyblades. It looks so ridiculous I can't even begin to imagine who wrote / designed that and thought "yea, that looks good / sounds good"

Which, reading between the lines, means he thought the story was crap.

If he thought the story was good, he would be heaping praise. Instead, he's offering the player base an out.

I guess he spent too much of his time saving FF16. And the B Team handling FF14 dropped the ball.
