Who knew the 6.15 Omega Quests… (Spoilers)

[KageTokage]

The quest overall was very thought-provoking in terms of how it revisited Endwalker's main themes and rather boldly questioned whether or not Venat actually made the right choice as well as considering the merits of Hermes and Emet Selch's actions. Omega was also just entertaining the entire way through with its commentary on matters both mundane and profound.

I did find the confirmation that the Watcher's original self was part of Venat's faction and one of the sacrifices for Hydaelyn despite not even knowing her true intentions a bit troubling, though, even if his simulacrum was satisfied with the end result.

I'm also wondering if/when they'll revisit the Omicrons after the TT card tease that Chi was housing the key to their survival. It's implied the thing possessed a heart with how it seemed to have developed an obsession with seeking out new targets against its original directive as well as remarking that it's "never felt so alive" when it's defeated.

Maybe I misunderstood you there but at least in the german version he bascially said that he was recreated by Hydaelyn and that she restricted his knowledge of the past. So for me that sounds like his old self probably knew what was happening (otherwise there would not be a need to limit it) and that only this recreation did not.

About the topic itself: I really enjoyed the story. Hearing Omegas side to all of it and seeing her changing throughout the quest was nice. Especially her interactions with Alpha. The scenes with Growingway were just gold and I laughed quite a bit at that part.
