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

Having an adult visual novel writer as one of the mains did not help matters.

Wait wait wait hold the phone. Is this true? Where did you hear this?

I don't think Wuk Lamat is a bad character, I think she's just the victim of bad writing.

I'm curious why you make that distinction? If it's a real person, you can say something like she was a good person being in a bad situation. But Wuk is a fictional character, the writing is her. If the wring were good, you would have a good character.

Speechless. There are so many things I want to say that I simply can't on this forum. I miss Ishikawa so bad it makes me look stupid

I mean, not to shame, a lot of artists make a living from smut at the start of their careers.

It's just that... What credentials compelled SE to give him the lead writer position for their biggest cash cow? I can't see how anything he wrote for FF14 before this showcased anything but risks. They really must have wrapped themselves in this positivity feedback bubble if they didn't hear or see the criticism people had for Werlyt and 6.X.

But you know, don't criticize the game! The devs must already be aware of the issues, they are already fixing them I bet, so why all this negativity? /s

I stared in silence a moment upon opening this. How can a game that generates this much money not deserve a bigger budget for the writing team? Someone writing a couple side quests with that resume should never have been handed the MSQ for a multi-million dollar product.

Ugh they knew DT would sell well after Endwalker's popularity, so they put the least amount of budget and effort in it. Not to mention they know plenty of fans will eat whatever slop they feed them with

Well they lost every goodwill from me after DT

Also VN doesn't synonym to bad either. In fact, Kinoko Nasu (Fate), Ryūkishi Zero-Nana (Umineko), or even Ittetsu Narahara (Murasama) would easily give Ishikawa a run for her money. Nasu was probably the biggest name among them and he started his writing career writing doujins. But yeah, it's weird they handed the job to a writer who only wrote a rather obscured otome game. Only reason I can think of is his salary probably not too high comparing to the other heavy hitters.

Ok, so maybe it wasn't just me being crazy that Koana came off as a raging siscon.
