    That the story will stop being so focused on the WoL. I'm tired of being told that I'm the hero; that I'm the only person who can solve Eorzea's problems. Fantasy is at its best when the protagonist isn't special, but rises to the occasion anyway. We've been marked in this game since level 1, and after 5 years, it's become immensely tedious.

    Oh, and get rid of the Scions. I don't want them around anymore. I don't need a "special friends" supporting cast that shows up every expansion to lick my boots.

    On your first point, I felt it was more about Boobfilia and her band of misfitly sidekicks, followed by a guy who tried to join the Backstreet Boys. The Warrior of Silence was kind of just there being an errand boy when all the full time postal workers were on vacation. Then came Alphinaud and his God complex trying to run things, while pushing the Warrior of Please Spare Me This Misery And Kill Me Now further into the background. When he comes into his own as a man, I thought you know, the Warrior of Background was finally gonna get some screen time, but here comes a wanna-be and very poor example of Michelle Rodriguez, Alisaie.

    I get to the esteemed Shadowbringers expansion and supposedly it is all about the Warrior of We're Not Sure Which Time of Day Anymore, and riiight from the very beginning I get turned into the Warrior of Casper and then what else I'd get is the Scions all being mouth pieces and stealing more spotlight, with the failed Backstreet Boy applicant still mourning over Jessica Rabbitfilia. By this time I was getting a little annoyed.

    I'm totally on board with getting rid of the Scions.

    I may not agree with your opinion, but I love these titles and I'd love to see a cutscene with someone just.... ragging on the WoL and their 'special heroness', no respect at all. It'd probably be Nero, thinking about it. The Exasperation is pure gold. It would be so fun if it was the WoL him/herself, but since they are eternally bound to be the Warrior of Nod Until They Stop Talking... not likely.

    Really, you could combine like, five of the above requests and have a World-hopping adventure with Nero. No Scions, unknown territory, an ally that has almost no respect for you.... Fun Abounds! Bonus points if you can tie in/parallel Gaius' redemption arc with Nero's.
