Lament of the Second Rate Warriors

What *really* sucks is knowing that the only thing that kept me from playing enough of 1.0 to finish the storyline and be considered one of the old Warriors of Light was that I never was able to log in to the old Black Shroud long enough without getting the DirectX error.

No offense, but that kind of thinking is very Non-Warrior of Light. LOL

You can argue for weeks about which Warriors of Light are the best, but that's not the point. The point is that when the original WoL show up, they and the new WoL will understand each other. They both fought primals, they both defeated a Legatus, and they both have the Echo. It is their might combined that will bring peace to Eorzea.

It would be like all those movies about a meteor hitting the earth and the best hope for mankind (ie a nuclear bomb) just wasn't big enough to do the trick. We the Warriors of Light were told about stopping it too late in the game and if something is too late that does change the facts of it. Plus we were putting out other fires like the Primals. Everything else we did as warriors of light was in truth accomplished. We were sent to pray at the god stones to help activate it. We did the best we could to stop Van Darnus. The bad guys were unfortunately just one step ahead. Also if we go to that stand point if Bahamut hadn't have over powered the gods then things also would be different.

I do feel like we're on equal footing with them, and arguing the opposite is just going out of your way to be contrary.

There's nothing special about being the original warriors of light. XD

We were all a bunch of failures lol. Our only moment of glory was defeating Nael van Darnus. And that ended up doing nothing at all to prevent Bahamut from breaking free from Dalamud. Aka we failed yet again.

Like seriously, our 1.0 characters were weak and failures during 90% of the original storyline. This is what happened during most of the cutscenes.

Our only few moments of glory came with the entire Nael van Darnus saga. I'm ashamed to be an original warrior of light. T_T

Eh. It doesn't bother me to be considered second-rate. I am second-rate. I'll probably never enter the Steaming Coil of Bathtub, or whatever it is. But I might heal someone along the way who does eventually go on and do it. Or I might not.
