    Would also want to see more of Unukalhai.
    Unukalhai should most definitely get some screen time. I would honestly be very surprised if Unukalhai is forgotten in Shadowbringers since he is a disciple of Elidibus. I actually don't consider him to be a "minor" Scion because I expect him to become a "major" one very soon. I would be very surprised if the writers bury him and forget his existence.

    The only question is how the writers would reintroduce him in the main scenario quests for players who never completed the Warring Triad story.

Urianger? Yawn, overplayed, overused. Tired.
    I don't really understand this logic. It's a continuous story with an established supporting cast. You don't just drop them all and pick up a new set of characters to replace them.

    Giving more characters some time in the spotlight is one thing, or even introducing new major allies for each expansion, but they're not going to abandon the core cast.

It'd be nice if Gridana lady and the conjurer's guild started lending out their healing services to the front lines. It'd be nice to see how Lolorito and the Sultana are getting along as well, even though i hate the Sultana.
    Did you miss the bit where they all joined the Eorzean Alliance and fought alongside us on the battlefield at the Ghimlyt Dark? "Gridania lady" saved us from being blasted by a colossus and everything. (And if her Tale From the Calamity is anything to go by, she certainly would have been healing people on the battlefield during and afterwards - it's just not a particularly exciting thing to show within the game.)

    Nanamo last showed up in the Saltery sidequests and Lolorito is involved in that at a background level too, wherever they take it from here.

    Well, now that they've set a precedent for making previously-optional content required for MSQ...

    But, really he should have been brought back into play ages ago. Or give him something to do in a subsequent sidequest OR at very least have him off doing some kind of important task so there's a reason for him to be not involved in the MSQ, rather than sitting around the solar all day but not getting involved in the quest unfolding in the main hall.

    No, and I didn't miss the part where they fought at Ala Mhigo either. I want more of that though, and particularly I want them to have more dialogue. I loved the sit down with Varis at the end of Stormblood. There should be more, though. Even within these great examples the city-state leaders feel more tacked on than expanded upon. I'd like some more Aymeric and Lucia too. Especially Lucia.
