That one fight at the end. (4.3 story spoilers)

[Talraen]

I am torn on this. I loved this segment, but a large part of why is because it was totally new and unexpected. If this becomes a regular thing, I think I'll get tired of it very quickly. Its novelty makes it powerful, so I hope they use it sparingly.

I thought it was a nice little thing to shake things up a little. It was nice and short, which I think was the right idea because too long as a different character would probably grow tedious. I think it was also a good call keeping abilities somewhat limited (though they probably could have added a couple more) just for the fact that not everyone may be familiar with playing as an Arcanist, or even a caster in general. I missed my aetherflow, trance, and Bahamut, being a regular SMN, but a nice easy mission like that didn't really need it. The Moonstone Carbuncle was pretty cool too. I wouldn't want this kind of thing for every patch, but I'd definitely welcome it again once in a while with different characters.

It's a very small, and rather easy, segment. Would you rather just do more fetch quests?

Personally I've been wanting them to do something like this for a long while now.

indeed I would. If this becomes a regular thing I'll probably find a better game.

[Okamimaru]

indeed I would. If this becomes a regular thing I'll probably find a better game.

If that's all it takes to make you quit then you don't seem very invested in this game anyway

[TaleraRistain]

I loved it! It was a nice little change that I hope they do again.

It's your choice and preference but imo you're picking a strange hill to die on.

The bit with Alphinaud was the best thing out of 4.3's story. If my character is gonna stand there and watch others dying, then SE may as well give us the White Knight Chronicles treatment. I'm not asking to kill NPCs, but I do hate when I just stand there and watch others dying around me. I rather attempt to do something and get my arse handed to me than to sit there. I sometimes think the WoL gets a kick out of watching others getting tortured/killed.
