The lack of bite was disappointing. Not only from a game mechanic perspective, though also a story one too. I keep seeing people claim to be impressed with how dark and grim the place looks but if you glance more closely you'll find that all of the debris strewn across the battlefield is Garlean in nature.

It's just another dull, one sided battle where major characters are shown fighting and killing enemies as if they're slicing through butter. It's a pretty stark contrast to what was supposed to be an 'unwinnable' battle.

It's just a repeat of Ala Mhigo - along with many of the same characters showing up. We also know that the writers aren't likely to kill off any of the leader figures in the story and if they do it'll more than likely be another 'fake out'. The stakes just don't feel high at all.
