    I don't know why those who hate the writing are so fixated on the "newfound adventure" that was the name for ONE patch (6.1) only. Every patch has a different name... that has been a thing since 2.1...so any "failure" is on your own part for being so fixated on a throwaway patch name.

    Are you serious? Was expecting a patch to live up to its namesake too much? This argument really caught my attention. Because it shows that those who defend the current state of affairs have run out of any defensible means to argue in favor the game's recent writing. Unfortunately a recent interview has since confirmed that until 7.0, that the patches will continue to be written relay-style by different writers.

    While 6.2 was tolerable, there is a decent chance that at any moment we might see the torch passed to another junior writer in the style of 6.1, whose issues need no repeating.

    A patch name is equivalent to an episode title. It's just to glitz up the patch and give a little bit of what it's about, not making it is "entire story". Only you and a few vocal minorities have this "story" issue. Yet you act like you speak for the entire playerbase, which isn't the case.

    Tbh, I'm very happy that none of the writers see this or take any story "critique" from people like yourself. Continue to scream into the void all you want about how "bad" the story is. I will continue to sit back and take comfort in knowing that the story will never go the way you want.

    Yes, you got me. I disagree with you, therefore I cannot comprehend basic mathematics and arithmetic and completely flunked the entirety of junior high. Excellent counterargument. Aveyond got that right I suppose, the 'state of the defense squad' indeed. But honestly? It's no biggie. I'm used to personal attacks by now, apologies for that.

    So toxic. It's really embarrassing whenever I see something like this in any fandom.

    And it's kinda funny, I thought shill knights would listen to Yoshi-p words, but apparently not, considering the man himself hype "newfound adventure" so much that EW delay is due to him wanting emet to become his mouthpiece. But nooo.. It's the player's fault for expecting that to happen.

    The game could've easily introduced minor npc to go on a light adventure with us, but here have the scions instead, even though just a patch ago they said they're "disbanding" to go incognito.

    "Disbanding" in quote marks, as an official organisation. They're still our friends and they're allowed to still hang out with us as individuals.

    No one said otherwise. Read more carefully next time.

    I read what you said. You said we should find someone new to go on an adventure with because we "disbanded" with the Scions, which we did not. They are still our friends and we still have every reason to call on them when we need help with dungeon exploration.

    That's why I write it with quote marks?? And yeah of course they're still friend with us, but that's not even my point at all. You're cherry picking half a sentence and get confrontational. What is your problem

    I'm not objecting to the part you seem to think I'm objecting to.

    We are in agreement that the "disbanding" is in name only, correct?

    The part I am objecting to is that since it is in name only, there is no reason to say that the disbanding should lead to them not accompanying with us, and we should find someone new.

    We're on a new adventure but that doesn't require us to not be accompanied by old friends.
