I am so freaking bored of Shadowbringer's story

In the end I have no problem with characters (no matter the gender or race) that have a crush on us but I wish they would tone it down with those that are so often with us (and that still look so young). 5.1 was the worst for me in that regard, especially since the german version was much more obvious with it. She is one of my favorite characters, but I did like her a bit more in stormblood.

16 seems to the low edge of "acceptable to be regarded as adults" to me, especially considering the non-modern setting. 14 sounds too young, but 16 is an age where even in modern Western society, people start to be given some adult permissions. It's the age they can choose to leave school, get their driver's license or learner's permit (depending on where you are), possibly is the minimum working age, start looking at jobs and careers...

And also? There's nothing weird about a 16-year-old having a crush on someone, if that is indeed the case, whether you regard her as adult or not. It's not like either she or you are trying to act on it.

(And are other people jumping straight from the "emotional attachment" in-game to "must be aiming for a physical relationship"? Because I don't make that jump so I don't see it as an issue, but I realised maybe that's what other people are thinking.)

The problem, at least for me, it's not her having the crush, but that there seems to be n expectation that you can choose to act on it or something, or at least consider her seriously as a love interest.
Her having a crush is another thing. Hell, I think half of the Source and 90% of the Prime have a crush on the WoL.

I know that there are relationships in real life like that, I just find it funny how anytime someone just wants to play an underage character or wants to have a body like for example Alphinaud some people are screaming that its utterly creepy and disgusting. Even Yoshida spoke out against that (even though I am not 100% sure if that only counted for kids or anything not adult) and yet we have underage characters that are on purpose written to be seen that way.

My problem is more that she seemingly gets more and more jealous and overprotective over time. 5.1 was the worst for me with Ysthola outright calling out the exarch and Alisaie as fighting over their beloved warrior while we as a character cant do anything at all. I just wish they would tone it down since we wont ever get the chance to say no. In HW and Stormblood she was still more than just admirer of the WoL and at least in my eyes in shadowbringer this has gotten much worse..with seemingly so many characters always pointing out how she is just "fangirling" about us.

I for example love Haurchefant and saw him and my character as a possibility. But I also understand that not everyone likes it that way. If he had been a main character and flirted with us the whole time then I would have found that annoying and it would be even worse for those that dislike him.

I have not figured out why people are quick to jump to the conclusion of something being creepy either.

Those of us that played XIV during Year of the Horse got an insight into Haurchefant's kinks in the New Year's Event that no one since has been able to get....

Please, do tell. Also, I saw a video as to what Haucherfant says it the original/Japanese dialogues and oh my!

Guys its a troll thread, dont feed the troll.

The greatwood arc literally gives us one of the biggest lore revelations in the whole game, and amh mareng afterwards has some pretty significant character building for Thancred (Read: The only character development he's ever gotten in 6+ years...Sometimes i wonder what people see in FF14s msq characters sometimes...)

Meanwhile, everything before that is the filler...
That's how you know its a troll thread.
