    What is this writing in DT?

    Was there also a writers strike in Japan? A team developed this story and got paid for it? Side quests have been better than the MSQ by far, I’m staying in hope there will be more Hildibrand

    Seriously the story seems like it was written by an unpaid college intern so far lmao.

    The Legends of the Titanmen lives on, a shining example of the power of compassion and the ability of people to make a difference in the world. A reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope, as long as there are heroes like the Titanmen who dare to do good deeds in Eorzea.

    I think my biggest issue with the MSQ so far is the constant shift in pacing between key narrative points. I am currently in the second to last zone I feel like the pacing and stakes are changing every other quest. It is very jarring.

    First part, tad too much repetition. And the antagonists are too stereotypical.

    It seems to me that Yoshi experimented with replacing some writers with AI. Did not go too well.

    Seriously. Did anyone on the dev team actually play through the MSQ and give feedback on it? We have a 10 minute voiced cutscene followed immediately by a 5 minute un-voiced cutscene that just recaps the previous cutscene. They could cut 50% of the cutscenes and lose nothing. This is insane.

    This would make sense to me. It seems like there is a secondary team or AI tool that is connecting the main story points together, creating a huge variance in how the pacing is laid out.

    People know what they do; frequently they know why they do what they do; but what they don't know is what what they do does.

    Usually involving someone 3 feet away that is a DIFFERENT QUEST.

    Also....I am pretty sure I was playing a moderately written fanfic/VN rather then a adventure game as I am pretty sure I hit 100 with less then 12 combats outside of Duties...

    You know, just whining that things are bad, without saying anything about why you think they are bad, is completely useless and a waste of everyones time.
