*Spoilers* Questions about Shadowbringers

And as I said before, it affects other characters' continuity. You can't put the Omega story before Crystal Tower for Cid and Nero. You can't have Binding Coil take place after Alisaie joins the Scions in post-Heavenward. You can't interact with Estinien the pre-Heavensward Azure Dragoon any time after starting Heavensward, but the Lv30-50 DRG quest have him there anyway. These events are fixed in time, and you're just stepping back into that part of the story to play them.

you are still not understanding how Block Timeline works.

As I said YES these things will always be set in that Time frame they are made.

For example, in One Block timeline WoL did not do DRG quest but in 2nd Block Timeline the WoL did do the DRG quest.

Now it is a matter which Block Timeline happened First and which one is the WoL currently in.

If Block 1 is the old timeline that stopped and got replaced by Block 2 Timeline then current events is that Block 2 is the Timeline that WoL is in and Block 1 is the old timeline that no longer continues within this Single timeline path.

Block 1 and Block 2 are both part of a Single Timeline but Block 1 was the first Part of the Timeline and ended at a certain point. Block 2 will then begin after Block 1 ended with History being mostly the same until a certain point alters small parts but still continues to the same intended destination that Block 1 intended to reach but could not since it had to be stopped at a certain point.

It is for this reason why the MSQ will always happen as intended no matter the dialogue choices made and no matter how many of the extra content players complete or did not complete because the Variation in the MSQ are all just different Block Timelines within this single Timeline path. It is only a matter of which Block is the WoL in and which are the past Block timelines that have stopped to create this new Block timeline.


but I will stop trying to explain how Block Timeline works now since you do not understand my explanation.
