What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

[Absimiliard]

So would people be more upset if we make "Whats the point with that quite lackluster story in Dawntrail" or we just keep adding to this one?

That's already been done twice. The GMs killed it both times.

This again, eh?








You're welcome to contribute something to the discussion beyond posting the same gif over and over, of course. At the very least, maybe use a different one each time?

As you're SO fond of saying "You're free to not engage with posts that you don't like"

I just love Venat, and I thought that people who are angry might feel better if they see her as well. I didn't mean to make you angry, I apologize for that. But you're right, I'll switch it up

You know, to this day I can't figure out what it is about people criticizing the game that makes others want to mess with them. Kinda silly.

Two different individuals already tried to pre-emptively create one, actually. One of them was deleted, the other is still around but didn't pick up traction.

I don't think there will be any major criticism towards Dawntrail. All signs point to it being a rather low stakes, sanitised affair. Endwalker is particularly controversial since it took many different story arcs built up over time and then tried to awkwardly conclude them all at once.

It's not a great situation for a game that actively brags about being 'story driven' but it is what it is.

Your concern is appreciated and I do think Venat looks a lot better in that particular gif.

Though I do not get the impression that anyone posting in this thread is angry. It's simply a debate about a video game story, after all.

My curiosity remains, though - do you have anything to bring to the table that is relevant to the thread's premise? What aspects of Endwalker did you not enjoy or believe could have handled better?

I imagine they were just bait/shtposting. I meant it in a slightly serious way, once the expansion is out and done with. I'm not fond on leaving this subforum.

I'm still stuck around 6.4 and haven't done the last raid tier or the 24man, due mostly to lack of motivation.

I hope this weekend leaves me optimistic for the future.

Wait. If there's still one around, that means it was done three times already.

I'd say this sub-forum is the best of the lot, in all honesty. So I don't blame you.

I'm mostly curious to see if every new zone is going to be in Tural or if they'll do another expansion split that takes place elsewhere. If they can capture the vibes of the Ys games in terms of exploring an unfamiliar region then it might just manage to retain my interest.

I'm curious about the new jobs at least and somewhat excited about the graphical update - especially if they finally fix the issue of Highlander men lacking authentic eyebrows.

I doubt I'll ever treat the game as anything other than a backup option, especially if its competitors dangle a more intriguing premise for their upcoming expansions. I've made my peace with the idea that MMO's are too unreliable to commit to on an exclusive basis. Even if the story isn't mishandled there's the issue of content droughts and friends burning out/taking their leave altogether.

To say nothing of the fact that non-MMO games often loom on the horizon. I'm looking forward to Dragon's Dogma 2, Tekken 8 and FFVIIR: Rebirth.
