How many weeks do we need to keep doing the Nier weekly quest?

This epilog better blow my socks off. Cause so far these past raid quests are flatter than a lalafell's chest. Yes there's some head tilting and facepalming put in there by Galugg's behavior and Konogg's last two messages, but they still haven't felt like it's grounded Neir into the world of XIV. Don't get me wrong I loved all of the fights and even the Dwarf sections up to these post raid quests while shrugging and sighing at the Nier parts. As it comes off as none of it mattered and if it wasn't for the seed being around nothing would have happened. I can't wait for 6.0 and the Myths of the Relem.

It's funny for me because it's only this last week that has truly intrigued me with

finding out Anogg was mad at the world and wanted revenge. Makes me wonder if they're implying she somehow summoned the Seed / machine lifeforms to the First

It really is interesting and it reminds me of ...

Drakengard 3. The protagonist Zero hated the world for what its done to her and as she lay dying she pretty much wanted it to die and that's when the Flower came to her. So maybe the lingering hatred of the dying dwarf did summon the Seed to the 1st?

Again though, all of these implications literally mean nothing to someone who hasn’t played the nier series. That’s absolutely horrible writing. Even if the epilogue is okay, it really isn’t going to make the story any better for me because it made me have to sit through however many weeks of these boring quests with barely any info. I’ve already barely understood any of the references or story of this questline as it is outside of the handwave of “oh they’re aliens”.

Yep, agreed. I haven't played NieR or Automata. The only reason this part intrigued me was because I have played the Drakengard series. But the raid and these follow up quests have just been terrible writing.

At best the song titles can be related to XIV thematically, however we'll see what comes of the future quests.

Right, especially given that final boss in the raid
