I feel the problem though, is that because this keep using this particular emotional stake repetitively, we'll become desensitized.

Its kind of like how I react now when I watch Game of Thrones. I don't get shocked if someone dies. I can get kinda pissed if they were my favorite but I can't react the same way I did a couple seasons back anymore.

It also reminds me of Dragon Nest. Every favorite character I knew in that game pretty much died. I don't know if they ever finished the story there but I'm pretty sure if they introduced a npc, it probably died too.


What can you do? The setting is centered around the never ending supply of primals we have to defeat and people just keep dying in the line of fire because of it. I'm actually surprised Estinien survived the ordeal.
