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

[EusisLandale]

I've called them beast tribes for the last ten years. I'm not gonna stop now lmao.

The weird thing is, it almost feels like there's a concerted effort to kill the word "tribe". Magic the Gathering changed it to "Kindred" for all the old Tribal cards just about a month or two ago too.
And just like here nobody, barring those who have to bend the knee for money, actually even follows along with the garbage change and keeps to the old name.

Alright I finally finished MSQ and what a note to end on! lmao @ Wuk/Scions/WoL happily putting a literal child king on a throne and then setting up a foreign picked regent. Sensitivity coaching made the writers emphasize that cowboy duels had nonlethal bullets but somehow a little CIA oopsie slipped through.

Yeah I don't really like how we're forced to go along with her plan.

....If only I knew how bad things would have gotten.

End Trial of Endwalker: *all Scions start praying for the WoL to be protected from harm and causes a huge Tank LB 3 to protect said WoL*


End of Dawntrailer: ... no one asked for a huge kitty to come save the WoL.. Breaks through interdimensional VR Reality by her self and single handedly stops a major attack from a bad guy...*


*looks over the two* ... endwalker did it better and made it look more believeable than this new crap we were served by a mary suesque character

The name change never made sense to me. Everyone I know still calls them beast tribes and tribal quests. We have a game with many heavy and dark themes, yet they draw the line at the word "tribe"?

Part of the reason that Dwarves were chosen as one of the beast tribes for ShB was to highlight just how differently the First saw the Lalafells, that they considered them beastly and inhuman. By changing it to "Allied Society" the distinction is lost and the racism of the First, instead of being highlighted as something wrong, is now masked and hidden with a nicer name to it to make it seem less evil.

[SushiOishiiii]

At least now people won't get offended from seeing the word "Tribal Quest" since it has been changed to "Allied Society Quest".

When I saw this in the patch notes, I knew FFXIV is over. They have given into the woke nonsense and the game is going to go into decline from here.

sPEeN LIsTeN tO mE!!!

Lol I haven't gotten to the end yet but are you joking? The "I killed the universe ending threat the Endsinger" WoL can't beat whatever the last boss of the expansion is (most likely a glorified AI) but Wuk Lamat can single-handedly? Seriously whoever the main plot writer for this expansion was.... fire them. From a main plot perspective this is legit the worst FF14 expansion, ARR is better than this.

Don't forget your Dawn's Resolve buff where you're inspired by Wookie and are breaking your mortal limits. Somehow she's more powerful than dynamis.

Finally reached Solution 9 and while I really disliked the general story before (and Wuk Lamat by proxy) . . . I absolutely cannot stand her now (though the story has gotten moderately more interesting).

When we're asked if she can explore with us in Solution 9 I was praying for a choice with a snarky option but we just nod with a smile . . .

I know SE isn't keen on killing off characters any more but I would be filled with such joy if she was removed from the game now and forever more.

This threads title is spot on, she really does ruin an already awful story.

The way they paint her as some sort of genius tactician for pointing out the most obvious stuff in the second half too is just disgustingly stupid. Meanwhile everyone else around her acts like idiots as if we didn't spend the better part of a decade adventuring together and have IMMENSLEY more life experience than someone who, to their own admission, BARELY KNOWS HER OWN PEOPLE AS SHE NEVER REALLY WONDERED OUTSIDE THE MAIN CITY.

If they ended the MSQ for 7.0 with "and it was all just a nightmare" I wouldn't even be mad.
