Things that make you cringe?

Keep in mind that I only just finished the questlines for 2.5 and I'm about to start Heavensward. Actually scratch that, my mom killed the power before the final cutscene ended... but I saw most of it on Youtube so meh.

Minfillia's voice acting can sometimes be annoying I guess and pulls me out of the immersion in the game. It generally sounds like someone who's just reading off the script with little to no understanding of the gravity of the situation. Also the lack of backstory or really much of anything for the individual Scions. I mean I'm sure there was stuff for them before 2.0, but I'm a mere 2.0 player. Never got to play 1.0 due to being jobless myself. Yeah I know what their personalities are, I like their voices, but there's nothing that truly makes them stand out or make them more than 2 dimensional IMO. They're just kind of... there.

(Welp, in this forum sit spoiler tags don't work... how do I hide spoilers?? I know I've seen people do it.)


Also I am not a fan of how they mourned the death of... I forgot her name -- the scholar with the axe who figured out how to trap an ascian and ultimately sacrificed her life to save ours. The only character who seemed to really mourn her death was the guy who seems to believe he's part of a Shakespeare play or something. They all had the exact same way of expressing their grief aside from him. I did like that, Papalymo said himself that for once he had nothing to say to Yda though. But otherwise, everyone just seemed to be kinda down about it and then they got over it sorta quickly. With how childish Yda generally acts, and especially when she was particularly close to this character with a long history, I expected her to break down and start sobbing at least once. But it didn't take long for her to get over it and right before the banquet, when I thought her animation indicated she was crying, she was actually laughing. It was as if the death wasn't really all that big of a deal.
