Wow, Wuk Lamat is really single-handedly ruining the DT story...

[Loggos]

I 100% agree with you. I felt like I could breathe again when we got to spend some time with them. A genuinely enjoyable experience for however short lived it was. I still have my gripes about the other NPCs involved but, regardless, I wish there was more one-on-one adventuring with them.

(I agree. They are definitely what saves the entire experience for me and the reason why I even kept going with the MSQ to begin with. And whenever there is a group split I'm hoping I can go with them, even though it happens so rarely. I really hope they'll stay around for good and get more character development in the future. They have the most potential imo.

Also, yes to the one-on-one adventuring! Sorry G'raha but I have a new favourite travel buddy.)

Either Remake the Character, better Personality not being an Annoying Zoomer, and get a Voice Actress that knows how to do the Job.
Or get rid of the Character all together in post 7.0 Story. i dont agree that this Furry replaces me the WoL as the Main Character of the Story, dont Start being like World of Warcraft were the WoL is a bystander/Camera man/woman.

Were you around when Lyse happened?

I was around but not terribly active, I was trudging through ARR before i burned out and came back like two years later. While i was playing most people seemed more concerned about the mechanical state of the game. but That was probably after 4.0

Like the healer strike thing, Its Almost completely located in the forums, and in the forums only. Other than I think Xenos, I don't think I've seen anyone mention it beyond "hey here is a weird thing the forum is doing right now".

Or that could just be you.

I dont really know why you think Forum drama being reported on gaming news sites mean anything. You can find similar articles About all sorts of drama about other games, Its treated like a novelty.
I don't mean that to disparage anyone who feels strongly about it. Im Coming here as an outsider who wanted to ask what the deal is with some of the arbitrary viper glam exclusions, But found this instead. And like every other person who plays this game to much. Found a reason to get mad on the forums.

Lyse generated atomic levels of seething during Stormblood.

Moving the goalposts, such a typical tactic for people critical of feedback on the forums. You claimed it didn't reach out of the forums, I've shown you clearly it did. I'm not interesting in moving into a conversation over assumption about "what that means".

Okay. Considering Im the one who brought it up, and Did indeed mean its wider impact on the game ,and how *This* forum in particular seems to blow things out of proportion rather than how many people did or didn't hear about the strike. After all, I clearly heard about it. That wasn't my point. But You can have the win. it doesnt even matter to my overall point

When Bakool Ja Ja instantly turned around into a fast ally (whose trust Wuk Lamat has earned, somehow). The reveal of how he was groomed and pressured into the role was actually the first time the MSQ made me feel anything at all, it was genuinely pretty sad and messed up to learn. And yet my WoL has nothing but harsh words for him. Meanwhile, Wuk Lamat, saint that she is, acts forgiving. Because of course she does, only she can be kind and good.

Never before has the WoL felt so railroaded. I'm starting to dislike my own character.

This character is probably among the top ten writing in Dawn Trail, if you count the ranking from bottom up. The art of subtle writing is it's opaque and clever enough that it can hide the real truth from the reader. But in hindsight, the readers should be able to go back and piece together the vague hints and see that the conclusion still make sense. This character has nothing of the sort, and the 180 degree is just a complete arse-pull. The attempt is so fake and force that it make it hard for me to believe whoever behind it is a professional writer doing it for a living.

[NeroFlorence]

The fact that Bakool Ja Ja is a much more compelling and a better written character in his literal 15 minutes of screentime compared to the "Main Protagonist" of this Expansion and her 25+ hours of screentime is NASTY work

In fact of the Four Claimants, Wuk Lamat is by far the weakest and worst written Character and that's just sad lmfao

Like if we were given a choice, I'd back the war addict over her if I knew I was getting this
