Why should any of us root for Wuk Lamat?

I would bet money that this is exactly how things end up lol

“so they can use their respective strengths to cover each other’s weaknesses” will also word-for-word be something Alphinaud says as everyone stands around nodding to each other one person at a time. XD

Wish they make it so have a choose if support them or not. I played once another MMORPG that had branch story to it, where they let you choose if support the one or not. Why don't they for once have it where WOL gets the support to be a ruler of some place. I can't support a weakling.

Root for them because the VA is trans. Happy Pride month!

This just isn't that type of game. They're telling a story and want that story to be consistent between players. I tend to find big, story impacting changes fit better into single player games anyway, as opposed to MMOs where those choices ultimately aren't able to matter all that much because they'd have to account for all possibilities going forward, in a game where everyone would be making different choices.

This ultimately isn't a choice driven game like your Mass Effects or Dragon Ages. SWTOR allows you to make changes I know, but then by extension those changes can't matter all that much to the wider story being told because it has to march forward regardless of the choices you and all the other players made.

Hey now, at least Wuk has a genuine claim to being the new ruler, unprepared and naive as she may seem, whereas Lyse really had no business being such other than fanservice/main character privileges.

I mean, just because Y'shtola is THE fanservice character doesn't mean others can't have their moments. It would have made no sense Y'shtola to be given the relevance in an Ala Mhigan story arc when there's an actual Ala Mhigan in the team, so Lyse was shoehorned front and center of the expansion.

The reasons I llike her for a leader positon are rather simple :she seems like an actrual PERSON:

Im sorry but everyone of the other leaders in major citys seem so basic and just your avarage joe/mary sue type characters in leader positions. SO I would love her to be a leader an actrual character that has emotions

Lyse wasn't fan service in any form, because up until just before SB we all thought she was Yda. The same Yda that we journeyed with in 1.0 and was unceremoniously killed off camera, which was really upsetting for us Legacy players. The moment she took her mask off Lyse was basically a new character similar to Wuk and all new characters are either killed off or ignored later. Her being a scion gave her just enough plot armor to not go the Ysayle route of being written out of the story and instead just let her go do her thing. Let's just hope Wuk is written better. But if we go by what we have already seen, there is little hope for that.

DT definitely is off to a rough start since EW really hasn't done anything to make us care about Wuk Lamat or the storyline. If you vibed with her in the final half patch, then you may want to help her just cause. If you found her annoying like me...it's hard to want to? The void really needed to be its own expansion. Or...*something*. There's nothing wrong with the void story or EW main but it feels like the Return of the King theatrical version where they had to cram in too much stuff, cut and truncate some things too much, and while it was a good experience you feel it was missing something.
