[7.0 to next 10 years saga]Will SQEX change the Derplander into the new race ?

[Derio]

He has been adventuring for less than 2 years. Highly doubt he would retire after just 2 years.

[LaylaTsarra]

No we need our Derplander, no thank you.

Would be nice though to get some scion replacements who are other races though.

[Midareyukki]

Derplander's the default option. He's fine for what he is. He's one of the recognizable symbols for the game, so changing it might imply some changes in marketing.

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

Nooo don’t replace him ;_;

[KairiElise]

They cant get rid of him, he's the mascot of the game and I paid for his exclusive Endwalker collectors figure when the expansion dropped. Hope they give us more of those btw in different job sets.

[Vallerie]

I badly want them to change derplander into someone new. Or if they are dead set on keeping him, at least create a partner in crime. To Meteor, add Comet, whether she looks roughly similar to those ancient renders, or entirely different I don't really care.

[AraneaXV]

I wouldn't like to see him retire as he has become a staple and nostalgic at this point, but it would be cool to see him get a duo or like a partner that adventures with him not talking just the scions but like perhaps a family member or something? /shrug

[DiaDeem]

Yes, and should be a lady.

[hobostew]

Yes, and should be a lady.

It would be too controversial and SE doesn't like to get political

[Kuroka]

They should keep aging him and give him a full beard.

Old man WoL coming back to save the world just two days away from retirement or something.

And on 12.0 we get Daddy Kratos xD
