Review of 6.3 Story Content

[aveyond-dreams]

Sadly I found the MSQ quite boring; I know that Zero needs character development but the heavy focus on her really put a damper on things for me personally. I'm assuming this choice is due to her playing a pivotal role in future MSQ, so they have to cram a lot of her into these quests for her to work on the timeline they have but I can't say I enjoyed it. Though I did like Jullus' appearance in this patch, so that was nice.

As usual Golbez is off doing Golbez things, menacingly, as he has in every patch he's appeared in. Speaking of him, I'm also kind of dreading how we will go about getting back to the void to visit the 13th's moon; considering we spent 6.1 preparing to go there already once before, I'm hoping it's less time consuming or more interesting the next time round but we will see I suppose. Also random but I found the barrel quest after the dungeon kind of pointless? :P Would have maybe been a good moment for some more exposition or something instead imo.

Remember how back in the 5.0 Shadowbringers MSQ we praised them for having so little filler? Seems they've done a 180 on that and are going hard on it instead of providing anything that would've been more meaningful. But hey there's the biased codex I guess but after the hilarity that was the Hydaelyn entry I decided I wasn't going to bother subjecting myself to whatever other subjective nonsense is added to there.

Can't disagree with that, I know that this is a filler arc to tide us over until 7.0 but I didn't think that it would feel quite as obviously filler as it does. Two years is a long time to subsist on this sort of quality for MSQ. :/

I'm fine with filler as long as it leads to something big. I hope late down the road they give it the ARR treatment where the filler lead to something explosive...but AFTER they reworked that portion of filler and not before. Before the rework it was like 100+ quests to get to HW.

Well, Elidibus and Zenos are both dead, so we needed somebody to be menacingly ominous in the background, right?
