    When all's said and done she's like "oh I'm actually not who you think I am" and everyone is like "yeah we knew"... why even do that if it won't matter. Doesn't helps that her personality got even worse.
    It does matter though - its not so much a "reveal" as an introduction of a new character. I'm pretty sure that for the better part of 2.X and maybe even 3.X "Lyse" was actually Yda - as in: not even the devs themself knew that she would turn out to be a different character. Just like the other Scions Yda is a 1.0 "relic" - designed by a different team and, I'm sorry to say that, with very little character. Instead of somehow re-working that character the current dev-team decided not to kill her off but to turn her into a new character, that they're going to have total freedom with.
    Her personalty didnt get "worse" - her personality is just about to be revealed to us in the first place. That part of the story consisted of two deaths actually - both Yda and Papalymo died. We just got an insta-replacement for Yda.

    Now, it doesnt matter to me ofc wether you like that character or not, but you just decided to dislike a character you dont even know yet... thats pretty shortsighted to me, but whatever floats your boat I guess. Personally I didnt care much for Yda and I doubt that I will care much for Lyse, but I'm willing to give her a chance to prove herself and her character in the upcoming narrative.

    Louisoix only survived in the form of a primal though... so maybe we'll get to see a lalafell-phönix one day!

    Joke aside: There is no reason to bring him back, we got plenty of evidence for his death and, as I said, it makes a lot of sense to me for the dev-team to remove the old 1.0-characters to replace them with their own creations.

    The first and only thing we got from her is a sob story.

    At least let me know the character before trying to get my sympathy. Ysayle did it much better.
