Even Yshtola tells us not to bring them back, she was at peace with her eventaul decision, so why bring them back?Whats the point of having Yshtola tell us not to bring them back just to bring her back? Whats the poing of having the twins sacrifice themselves and have their long speech only for literally 5 mins or less later they come back?
    Evidently they have plans or else it would have ended with the characters dying. 6.1 hasn't happened yet, we'll find out then.

    But anyone who went into UT thinking that the characters were going to die there one-by-one hasn't been paying attention. We were already told they weren't dead and were giving us the environment and paths forward. They also gave us a tool that returns everyone to the ship that tracked their aether and made sure to mention it multiple times, which is the original way I thought we were all going to come back. We were given the means to save them and had no need for UT after we were done, why would we just leave them there? And there's the fact that no expansion ends with killing off any off the main characters and I strongly doubted they had it in them to do it there. Did you seriously think that these developers would have ended the whole game's original arc with all of the main characters dead except for the WoL and ending on the note "well at least we saved the world"?

    As for the twins' speech, it was the culmination of 10 years worth of character growth since both of them grew more than any other character.

    With the amount of fake death scenes in this game? No, of course not. Everybody who has played this game from start to finish knows the writers wouldn't dare do such a thing.
