Im the warrior of light, not some errand boy

I could understand the fetch quests to a degree when ARR launched. They had minimal time to get the main story done, so I accepted the mindless running around. What I find hard to swallow though, is that two patches in we're still doing the same thing.

For those of us who read the dialogue, you'll have noticed that some of the NPC's have even started apologising for giving you mundane quests (I guess even the localisation team realise how silly it is). Yugiri even questioned our leaders at one point for making us do them.

That one of the good parts of the game. We all hate this type of quests and the NPCs in the game actually acknowledge we hate this stuff.

Well it is still certainly better than this type of quest....

Its a final fantasy game isnt a valid point for walls of texts, just because thats how it was 15 years ago doesnt mean it has to be now. I understand everything else you said though.

[Jynx]

This guys right!

Proud Warriors of the Light can't be sent out to do silly erands, we must get others to do it for us so we can tell them our tales of the times we beat ol Tidus and Leviabeetus.

nope a good storyline is.

nope a good storyline is.

Agreed, when it feels meaningful.

Agreed, when it feels meaningful.

this is where our views differ.

i love the little things, like smelling the chocobo it's actually one of the things i never thought of before. what does a chocobo smell like? xD

then you got other things like the hiding children love that part i am not a huge fan of hiding go seek or just finding people in general but it was still fun.

the reason i don't find it meaningless is because the story itself showing you progress like meeting the guy who pretends to be part of the company of hero's you get tricked and do mindless tasks the first time but when it comes to leviathan you walk up and he just gives in instantly cause we already know he's a fraud they didn't make us stupid and have us fall for his tricks again and actually they have a npc fall for his tricks and get mad at him.

We refer to this as the Atma quest.

I just can't stand the fact that the Scions take credit for your work when you literally do everything from the errands to the God slaying.

[Elvin]

Yeah, I'm tired of it too.

I woud do anything to get the chance to kill Minfilia and destroy Eorzea just to stop them making me lose my time.


And I use to enjoy story in a videogame, I enjoy reading a lot of text, but not when the story it's so....stupid. I don't want to be forced to go smelling chocobos to unlock Leviathan EM. A comic relief from time to time can be OK, but the point is that 97% of the main story of this game is a comic relief. That's not fun. Main story is a pain in the ass for all the players I play with, at least. It may be ok for the kind of players that enjoy Hildebrand quests, but not for others.
