Please, no more Hildibrand in 4.0

[EdwinLi]

How about just not doing things you don't enjoy rather than advocating things that other people like being removed from the game because YOU don't like it? Just a thought.

Sadly is type of behavior will never stop because for some reason part of certain mentality is that of a "I don't like it then it should not exist" type.

We see this every where and no matter the obvious "avoid stuff you don't like and let the people who enjoy it enjoy it" will work better for the community as a whole there will always be constant posts about "remove this because I don't want it in the game even if other people may like it".

That's not entirely correct there.

The mentality is:"I don't like it, so please use the resources on something I like instead."
If development resources were infinite, these threads likely wouldn't pop up.

That said...I personally don't care either way. As long as they don't try to make me do it with rewards, I'm fine just ignoring it.

You need to post this more.

Oh I would like to fight Hildi's mother, Julyan at some point. I mean... that says everything.

I want those glowing eyes as an emote.

I like Hildy, and his content from the last patch was a step-up from how it started. That said so long as we get atleast one new good long running side-quest storyline in 4.0 I could do without him.

THAT SAID...I do agree that removing trials from 3.x Hildy was part of the problem as those were some of the better parts of 2.x Hildy. Also no Gilgamesh. Course I would be fine with just having more Gilgamesh in general even without Hildy but he works good there.

People complained that they were forced to do the Hildibrand content in order to unlock the Trials Roulette, which is probably why we don't have Hildy trials now.

Oh man, I didn't realize hildy in 3.0 was part of the MSQ!?!?!?

Oh wait he's not......then just don't do it and stop complaining about it.

I agree. At the very least can we not get him showing up for almost every patch? I appreciate that some people like him but his humour is very niche, over the top and development of his side quests detracts from the possibility of adding other side quests that are both more in-depth and interesting.

I miss the days when we had the game world and NPC's fleshed out through the Moogle Delivery quests. They were fun - and I was hoping for a Heavensward edition of them.

This isn't really a valid reason seeing has how we can do Trail Roulette without any of the experts, or any of the Warring Triad.

Hildibrand has had me squeeling more than once. If most people didn't appreciate it then I could see why it wouldn't be added in 4.0, but why would you advocate the removal of something that is clearly loved by many just because you don't get a chuckle?
