Am I the only one? Heavensward ending spoiler.

I trust FFXIV's writing team too much to believe they'll forget about the fact Y'shtola did something that has serious repercussions.

I want to believe, but I've already seen too many "important" details squandered and ignored. Granted, they're a bit better with conservation-of-detail in the main scenario, but it could easily be one of those things that goes unaddressed for a really long time before suddenly becoming important again.

I'd rather see dead characters stay dead, to be honest.

Which details?

Which details?

I am not restarting that debate here. If you think all this game's writing is flawless and airtight, just hold onto that belief. I wish I had it, is all.

I didn't say it was flawless, I just asked which details they left out.
But if you don't want to discuss it that's fine. Have a wonderful day.

i would actually like to know those details myself. some of them i just kind of forgot about anyway, so a refresher would be nice.

I really hope Thancred comes back, I demand my white-haired eyecandy to return!

Estinien, sadly, should not return in any form.

You might be in for disappointment; at least two NPCs are convinced we can find a way to rescue him.

Alphinaud: Estinien is a dear friend and comrade. Without him, we would not be where we are. Whatever it takes, let us find and rescue him from Nidhogg's clutches.

Alberic: The recent revelations have shaken Ishgard to its very foundation. Amidst this turmoil, the dragons continue their bloody rampage.
Alberic: Deprived of their finest warriors, the dragoons struggle to bear the burden. But bear it they must.
Alberic: For my part, I shall continue training the next generation of our nation's defenders.
Alberic: And if there is a way to free Estinien from Nidhogg's clutches, I mean to find it.

Though Alberic probably only says this after both the Dragoon 60 quest and the MSQ.

I'm glad the scions are in the place they are atm. The Warrior of Light is working with, as oppose to for, the scions now. We also have contacts in higher places, relationships apart from the scions.

Plus I always felt the scions were playing heroes. I know it wasn't meant to be that way (well I think it wasn't). I'm fine with the rest coming back as long as they take their place below the Warrior of Light.

I wouldn't be shocked, but Alberic could just be wistful.

We'll see. Ysayle definitely needs to stay dead. She was superfluous.
