Initially I really liked the goofy dwarves part of the story but that kinda went nowhere really quickly. Not even the pessimist squad got a satisfying ending for all of them, it just fizzled out in the beyond strange weekly quest setup. Lots of potential went unused imo both in terms of story and in terms of alliance raid design.
While the story was indeed garbage, the NieR raid at least had interesting mechanics and better gameplay than the current alliance raid, unless you count troll scale alliance wipes as “interesting”.
The biggest sin of the NieR raid was 2B bottoms sterilizing glamour creativity.
100% agree with Skiros here. We don't need more of Yoko Taro's phoned in garbage. He completely disrespected XIV with what he delivered story wise. He can stay far away. The combat developers can come back (so long as they keep those red balls away). Mechanics were fun.
Much as I enjoyed the Nier raids, it has no place as an actual expansion, and I sincerely hope it has no relevance like the 1.0 trailer did.
Most people I met in game liked the Nier stuff.
Thanks for all your responses. :)
Nier raid best raid
The actual fights and bosses are great, and probably the only places in the game with interesting trash mobs.
Wasn't invested in the story at all though, but I haven't cared about any of the alliance raid stories anyway apart from the current one.
