Dead people everywhere

[Naoki34]

I know that SE loves to put drama, heroic acts and tragic tales into their games. But this time i think they overdid it a bit. Sure civilians also got killed during the past expansion and its supposed to be the end of days story wise but this?

The game is supposed to be fun and enjoyable, but if i would be a sensible person i would seriously get a depression from this. Dead people, tragic deads and questionable killings in every zone so far. Im not gonna spoil but during the second half in Thavnir i thought atleast during one scene wtf? It dosnt bother me that much but i can imagnine that a light hearted person would have a bit hard time dealing with that.


Maybe someone should SE how to make great without tons of Drama

I disagree with you, I find the feeling I was hoping to get from playing FFXIV and feeling concerned about the fate of the world and the journey with the Scions.

You know, you're a human being with intelligence. It's a decision to put intelligence before just empathy and feeling. You have to learn not to be a feeling sponge, otherwise life is going to be unlivable.

It doesn't make sense to blame any game or movie for wanting us to feel. If you don't feel anything, I'd say the narrative is beside the point and completely failed.

You can't decently reproach a film or a book about war or the end of the world for lacking happiness and little birds. If I didn't feel anything while playing FFXIV and the characters we've learned to care about, it would be a shame.

Are you also going to blame Nier Automata and Nier for not spreading happiness? Or a war documentary that it lacks love?

Reading you, I get the impression that you'd like to live a story about the end of the world without talking about the thousands of people who get kidnapped by the Telophores, the victims in all the camps, the despair felt by people who asked for nothing else but to live happily.
If you want a game that tells stories without emotions, there's no shortage of that.

Sry but i dont get what you trying to say.

I dont have an issue with dead, war, dramas, happy or bad ending itself and so on. But im honestly thinking that a lot of the stuff that is shown to us during the Endwalker story doesn't belong into FF14 anymore. I think the amount of bad stuff got a bit out of hand and some violent acts shown are simply unnecessary, the story would be completely fine with a different approach during some scenes.
