    But in all seriousness, I have already stated that I would if the game reaches a certain point. A garbage story is not one of them. I have read/watched/played garbage stories, this isn't one of them YET but it sure is following some worrying trends. You can call it pessimism, I call it noticing a basic pattern. That, combined with SE leaning hard on the cash shop and dabbling in NFTs makes it really hard to enjoy a game at face value. Oh well, people were still playing WoW well after it's fall and it would be silly to think XIV's future will be different considering the trends we are seeing, lol.

Varis’ boss fight was extremely half assed, so much so he didn’t even get a proper theme, just the normal ShB boss theme. And then now in EW Nerva who was built up every patch in ShB turns out to just be a reskinned dungeon boss in a side quest story, and the garleans have been shuffled to the moon.
    It was set up though. The moment Zenos killed his father I knew that the place was going to go downhill fast. We all saw how he mismanaged things in Stormblood due to his views and that's when his father had him in check.

    Nerva was a coward though. They only moved when Zenos died, not when he was alive. I didn't expect much of them.

    The moon is way better than where they lived last considering its harsh climate and Zenos letting it collapse in Civil War.

    Correct me if i’m wrong but those are all different expansions, and idk if an entire different language translation really counts but…either way. I feel there’s a difference when you have light hearted moments when there’s not really any huge threats going on, and then you have constant back to back fluff when it’s supposed to be the end of the world…

    You mean like how Nerva was set up all throughout ShB only to end up as side quest fodder? You mean like how Gabranth was set up only to be killed off off-screen? You mean like how they set up the end of sb as taking the fight to the garleans and all of a sudden thats off the table in ShB?

    Boy, oh boy. I sure would be steamed if all of those happened in the span of a single expansion. :^)

    If you had actually read my post,
    I did read your post, so I wonder if you read mine.

    I'll give you the most recent example, although I don't know if you play the game. Trail of Cold Steel 4: the night before the major battle that will literally decide the fate of the world the crew decided ... they gonna have fun in a theme park!! Even better, they decided to have a drinking contest where half of them literally got smack. It's silly, inappropriate, illogical in every sense of the world. And the Trail series is probably the 2nd place contender with the Tales series as flagship RPG outside of the FF series. So in case you want to assert "I did not read your post", I did read it, I'm not merely point out the silliness in existence, but also their time and place.

    And that's the norm, not exception. As a certified WeEb I consume an unhealthy amount of Japanese media, and the majority of have tendency of dropping silly moments when tension are high, that's just their thing. If I want to waste my time, I can spend a few hours citing you these moments from some of the biggest JRPG tittle and novel.



    I dont really care if you personally dont understand it, im not exactly specifically talking to you when im making my point.
    I'm aware, and likewise for me. So is there a reason you want to make it sound personal and unpleasant?

    Would be really awkward if all of those were in ARR, huh?
    You know like the guy who only appears before Titan trial
    Or lalafell directly connected to Pharos Sirius...
    Or ARR beast tribe...
    Or little fluffy creatures introduced to you in ARR...
    Or a guy you spend whole ARR arc with...

    I still think it was unfair for Nerva to be killed off like that. Whether he was a coward or not we didn’t even know him personally. He may have been a coward but he did after all care for his homeland. There’s a reason why his legatus Vergilia and his men followed him.

    1. a one and done character
    2&3. That, i'll give but at least we got a sweet remix of the nightmare before christmas' theme featuring moogles and it is pretty sad when the sylphs are less cringe inducing than the EW era Scions
    4. lol, what am I? A weeb?
    5. That's a pretty big net you are casting there, lol. Ilbred was pretty silly though. :^)
