I only had time for one half of the big new contents, so after getting some bling (the glowy Emerald Weapon... weapon, the whole reason I decided to go with a green coat) I set to work.

MSQ
No big surprises, dragged on a bit long for my taste.

Well, OK, there was one - that Durante (Golbez) was the one who kickstarted the Flood of Darkness as an unwitting pawn of the Ascians definitely helps to explain his indefatigable ambition, though I do wish he would have reclaimed his own name before the end. Further implication the original Golbez was the PC's Thirteenth counterpart, though still nothing concrete. Zeromus was an easier fight than 2/3 of the Lunar Subterrane's dungeon bosses...

Ah yes, and who could forget Gaia showing up in a cutscene - fully voiced, no less! I heard there might be some additional bits for the Warring Triad and Eden... though I didn't see anything for the former I'm glad there was something for the latter given what we were dealing with.

Other than that... it was about what I expected. That's filler for ya!

(Let's see who this mysterious figure back from Tural with Erenville is...)


I'll get to Myths tomorrow... maybe... or over the weekend... such is life working overtime.
