Im the warrior of light, not some errand boy

Please no more fetch quests and teleport there and come back 3 times quests. I slay gods and yet pick up wine bottles 3 times and serve them to people. Quit wasting my time.

xD

It's a test of patience!

Sometimes a guy's gotta give up that pride. If I can bring some joy to a few Domans by tossing them some good foods and wines, I'll do it. Being a Warrior of Light is more than just taking down big bads!

A true hero acts with humility in addition to unleashing righteous fury.

Im not talking about the personality of the main character so much as i hate wasting 2 hours running back and forth. For (to me) is absolute pointless content and dialogue.

This is my only real complaint for the game. Main story questing isnt for me. Hate that i have to do it.

Having done the feast storyline twice now, I understand your pain. ^^; The entire thing was incredibly tacky. What bothers me most about he main storyline however, is all of the women in refrigerators. Over the first 45 levels, there were no less than 7 helpless damsels whose only purpose was to get raped or murdered by the bad guys. They were never seen, nor heard from, again.

obviously they didn't read the quest line or they would know exactly why they are doing those quests. they all have a purpose.

No i didnt, because im not young anymore and dont have a ton of time to play a game anymore. I dont want to start up a game and be hit with walls and walls of text. Its nothing personal with the story, its the fact i dont find this sort of conent in a video game enjoyable.

I've read the story and I still agree with the OP. The players are doing pretty much everything. These people that you save on the daily are so helpless that it's nauseating. Then the Scions can't seem to do nothing by themselves but take credit for helping you (Y'stola comment on titan). "Warrior of Light" must mean ultimate peon in eorzea...

At least this game acknowledges how weird that is.

Well then I guess you're playing the wrong game for you - FF games traditionally require the player to read, a lot - they're story based and hence are heavy on lore and dialogue. Yes there's battles and dungeon crawling too, but they're just part of the bigger picture.

As for the fetch quests, even though they were used to drag the gameplay out a little too much, again there is a reason for this - Eorzea is still struggling to recover from the Calamity, a disaster that was caused by foreigners, and the disappearance of the adventurers (the original Warriors of Light) who fought at Carteneau didn't help, especially as there have been people taking advantage of the situation and exploiting the legacy of the Warriors of Light for personal gain (accordingly the average person now tends to treat anyone claiming to actually be one with a mixture of scorn and contempt, if not just disbelief).

Hence trust is very hard to find and has to be earned. Minfilia even mentions this during the lead up to Operation Archon - that the player is being judged not on what they may or may not have accomplished in the past, but what they're doing now.

Yes it does seem like the player is used like a put-upon work-experience kid/intern a little too much, but showing that they don't mind helping people even with mundane tasks with little reward shows those in power they can be trusted with more sensitive affairs of state. 'Start at the bottom and work your way up' and all that.
