Unenthused About Dawntrail

[Rudje]

Honestly the graphic update has squandered any excitement I had for it before we saw what characters looked like, and I've been wary of the story since they announced where it was going because the 6.x patches hadn't exactly filled me with confidence, and the Scions getting center stage in the trailer underscored that for me. If it ends up a red herring and it's mostly the Wuk Lamat & Co. show I will be very happy, don't get me wrong, but I don't have any real expectations for it so I'm just hoping we don't have to deal with yet another world-ending threat. Please. Please just stay local problems this time.

Don't get me wrong, I want to be proven wrong and have my socks blown off. But I don't anticipate that happening.

I sense another world-ending threat (or something capable of doing so, it probably wouldn't be in their interest to do it but nevertheless we need to defeat them for some reason).

But I do agree it got so out of hand by Endwalker that somehow, some way we probably need to reset back to handling more trivial matters, which might take some getting used to. I'm just not so sure it's actually Yoshi-P's mindset.

He said we were gonna go back to being a simple adventurer with 6.1, but I also know that Yoshi-P is always looking for the next big fantasy story where it's a small group overcoming something fantastical and often that ends up involving saving the world...

6.1 didn't last long either. We went right back to speedrunning saving a long-doomed world the same way we did in Shadowbringers and casually saving the source from an invasion lol.
