(6.X Spoilers/Theory) Future WOL Content - Everything’s Coming Up…

[Denishia]

Honestly, the single story decision that would turn me off this game and make me no longer care about the MSQ would be our WoL devouring all the other Azem soul shards and combining into an Unsundered being (there is something deeply personally repulsive to me about that power fantasy) and especially a closed time-loop where we 'become' the Azem that was friends with two characters I do not like - Emet and Hythlodaeus- and have zero desire to have a single addition quest involving them. And the time loop aspects of EW are already the most controversial element - and such an ending for my WoL where they become trapped in the Ancient PreSundered society is a bad ending regardless of anything related to the Final Days.

Would I mind the MSQ eventually having us interact with another person who also carries a shard of Azem? Not at all. But I don't want to have their soul in our by the end of that plotline either - frankly I hope that there's a way that when we die the piece of Ardbert is separated from us to rejoin his friends on the First.

With our JRPG mandate of fighting all the gods - let's be honest, the only time I want to see Azem in-game is as a trial boss where we as the WoL and all the other bearers of their shard across the Shards defeat them in combat.

I wouldn’t want it to be anything negative either. And while I’d admire the story-telling nerve of ending the MSQ with our characters going back in time and being sundered - I’d much rather our character go back in time to prevent the sundering - while also finding a way to preserve our timeline and friends. I’d wager the writers would opt for that version, since it would make the most people happy.
