Wuk Lamat & DT Story are the best for the FFXIV-Story

[Remilia_Nightfall]

Honestly, I feel a bit like Gandalf now.

We are not Gandalf.

We are not even Pippin.

At most we are a random Gondor swordsman.

I will give my opinion to the second half of the Story as soon as im am done with it. But i am only talking about the 1st part of the Story.

That's fair but to understand people opinions, you really have to experience the second half first. That's arguably where it's the worse by a large margin. I enjoyed the first half even though it was a bit long and the tribes were a little bit superficial but no big deal, the light hearted tone was very cool after endwalker.

But then there's the second half where nothing makes sense anymore, you'll see by yourself.

See, Pippin slander just instantly tells me you have no clue what you're talking about.

How is it slander? Are you implying I do not know how important Pippin was?

If so, you are the one who completely missed my point and is now acting as if they are the only ones who understand LoTR.

We are not Gandalf.

We are not even Pippin.

I remember the famous part in the Fellowship where Gandalf almost fights the Balrog but then Frodo steps in and says "no, this is something I have to do on my own!!!" and Gandalf meekly steps back.

Reading comprehension, mate. They didn't slander Pippin. They listed two important LOTR characters: Gandalf and Pippin. "Not even" implies that Pippin is slightly less important than Gandalf. Which is correct- While Pippin drives/kick starts multiple major plot points of LOTR, Gandalf does quite a few more, plus all the ones that happen before the books/movies even start. Then they said we are neither and are instead a random swordsman with little to no importance. I think their comment is rather on point.

World Building my ass

You have Hanuhanu who are implied as stupid because they forgot their own culture and why their festival is important to the reeds, and it takes someone nearby not from their culture to help them fix the problem.
You have the Yok Huy, who apparently have an empire that only left ruins behind in convenient locations for MSQ service and not much else.
You have the X'braal who get no decent cultural world building outside of, we live in the same zone as the Mamool Ja and have been fight each other for hundreds of years until Galool came along and made us get along.
You have the Moblins who may as well not exist as they barely have any impact anywhere.
I like the Pelupelu

And finally you have the Mamool Ja who apparently have such a inferiority complex they decided to breed children with a low success rate in an attempt to make super people for hundreds of years, to acquire land? Except they forgot to tell that to the guy they bred who has been ruling over them for 80 years who knows their plight and basically said "ok bros move to Tuliyolal or stay in your shitty dark jungle with no good farms, i dont care" Not to mention all the other 2 heads they bred who also abandoned them, they sound like a bunch of dumbasses. oh but hey Wuk showed up and said, stop doing that and my Sharlayan friends will give you seeds that grow in the dark Jungle, hundreds of years of inferiority gone just like that, Great world building bro.

Nobody can tell me with a Straight Face, that Wuk Lamat is a objectively Good Character if yes, either you're just Lying or think something like Disney Star Wars or Post Endgame Marvel is Good

[Ozmandis]

You didn't understand what he/she's saying. Pippin is arguably less important than Gandalf by all means, that doesn't make him irrelevant, just less relevant and that's what is implied. That's a figure of speech called gradation.

Yes, Gandalf stepped in when one of the biggest threats on the planet came into the story. He stepped back when something came into play that he could have solved, but knew his charges could deal with. Example being the scouring of the Shire when he just leaves the Hobbits to deal with it.

Again, just some similarities, not the 1:1 comparison you seem to be implying.
