Patch 3.4 - Soul Surrender

[Theodric]

@Cilia:
Interesting analogy. I actually began replaying Devil May Cry very recently. I'm a Vergil fanboy, admittedly, mostly because I find him much more interesting than Dante and his cockiness. Though I do think this game is sorely in need of allowing our rivals/enemies to win from time to time and stick around in the background for quite some time.

I mean...they didn't kill off Rufus after FF7 because he was so memorable/popular. He also never really 'lost' against the protagonists either - he withdrew during the only direct battle featuring him and his silver tongue/allies got him out of trouble during other opportunities. Plus he wasn't without redeeming qualities either and was pragmatic enough to not go 'all the way' with the destruction of the planet...unlike Sephiroth.

Furthermore I've also been playing Witcher 3 recently. That game is awesome in regards to making morality more complex than 'good' and 'evil'. Sometimes doing the right thing leads to the bad thing happening. Which is super refreshing.

But I'm rambling.

Also Kingsglaive releases in a few days. I've been told by a Japanese friend that it is very morally complex and at least one of the antagonists has sympathetic motives so hopefully that'll be the case with FFXV. If that does well too then hopefully it'll be embraced by FFXIV as well.
