    Yes, the Ascians are always in the background. But EW was (like Stormblood or Heavensward) it's own self-contained story/episode in a bigger narrative arc. That arc is driven by the Ascians. But in ShB itself your main adversary for most of the game time is Vautry, culminating in him becoming Innocence. Only then the Ascians really become relevant in terms of actual gameplay.

    And yet, all the way from lvl 70 to 79 the Vautry-centric and lightbringer-centric story is really compelling in its own right.
    The premise of "light-themed horror/demons" was fascinating in itself and would not have been any less so if it has been caused by anything else than the Ascians.
    You mean to say you're not finding Yawntrail an engaging delight. I'm truly shocked surely the holy one Yoshi-P didn't make an cosmic blunder in spending his budget on a mid graphics overhaul instead of engaging story and decent job design/gameplay.

    Huh? I'm confused by this reply because the post of mine you are quoting was about a completely different topic (somebody saying people only liked the old story bc of the Ascians).
