Character disconnect and disappointing Player Agency in Dawntrail's MSQ [Spoilers]

[CerusSerenade]

[B][SIZE="3"]-snip

1. Your breakdown leaves Mamook to continue to bear resentment to the rest of Tural, continue mass baby sacrifices, and continue subverting the rest of the nation.

2. There's nothing stopping Soreel Ja from still stealing the Inter-dimensional Key, Zoraal Ja from stealing the keystones, and opening the Golden City, WITHOUT Wuk Lamat and Koana, and likely with Wuk Lamat and Bakool Ja Ja dead. Therefore he keeps the cheat death device and Tural falls to ruin. The scions will be involved too late and with no information on the golden city gate, letting Sphene commence with interdimensional fusion and end the world.

3. Without participating in the rite with Wuk Lamat, we'd have no authority to learn anything about the golden city, let alone even approach given Mamook guards and hides it.

4. Eerenville would not only have to lose his mother, he wouldn't get any closure either.

You have grossly misunderstood the events of the story to spin this narrative that somehow Wuk Lamat is the cause for everything going wrong. It is entirely off base.

I'm honestly debating just leaving every time I get that trial, and taking the penalty every time. Is it an absolutely terrible thing to do for the people there? Yes. But I see no point in being a willing participant in my own torture.

You'd be doing your party a favor. No group needs a petty, bitter, and quite frankly melodramatic member in their party. You'll be quickly replaced and you're the only one you're inconveniencing.

I wonder, do you say the same thing about MSQ roulette?
