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

[gumas]

There is so many weird scene that make me question why they do this

- rubber bullet
- we decide not to kill cold blooded bandit because... It will bring bad reputation for wuk lamat.... Huh?
- gulool jaja dead and the whole gang just... Yell at zooral and stare at him
- ketenram just... Sit in criss cross position and facing the void the whole time gulool jaja dead and didnt say a word... What?
- ketenram got ambushed but turn out just a "bonk" on his head?
- whole gang wait THREE times before realizing the brown cat is kidnapped
- the goblin dont know why their employee cant work properly despite they clearly sweating and realistically shouldnt they complain to the goblin? Why they just stay quiet? Any normal worker would complain
- valigarmanda was told to be very menacing but.... Thats it?
- the whole mamook village problem
- bakool jaja sudden 180 attitude change
- wuk lamat attitude went from cautious (duty support dialogue) to being cocky and godly starting vanguard dungeon
- she also suddenly power up so much after beating bakool jaja once
- the whole musical scene during train retrofitting
- krile the character that has been with us for many years, got shafted for a brown cat that has been with us for a week top
- speeeeen

And much more, like... I dont believe the dev or yoshi look at all that and just "this is fine" with it, no way i dont buy it, there is must be somekind of backdoor playing over there, did someone at top position daughter/son want to be writer so they order the dev to let she/he handle all of it? Did someone on the team is having mad love with wuk lamat so he want her to be in the story 99%? Is wuk lamat a self insert of someone in the team (this is the many case of mary sue character in western game), did yoshi give full freedom to the writer because its "holiday" expansion?

This one expansion alone almost break the whole community and i hope the team seriously will address this, like for real, the game went from solid 8 to me to solid 5 now all thanks to this expansion

The ONLY one thing that still good from this whole mess is the ost.... Thats it, the rest is broken, the story, the writing, the plot, the class balance, etc

Y'know what? Maybe they did and that's why they made that statement (I'm both paraphrasing and don't remember exactly when and where it was stated) that they were trying out new things with Dawntrail and would move forward based on player feedback.

Whoever they consulted might've been extremely good at convincing them that this was going to resonate real well with the "modem audience".

In other words...they got their feedback from X(sh)itter...

Yeah. Like, you overnumbered him. Heck, Azem crystal, summon 7 people (summon 1 Estinien?) and beat ZJ like in that meme.

Come on, i dont believe that Scions, who beat Meteon, dead ends and all finale of EW gonna have problem with ZJ and bunch of robots, created by failed reflection.

...characters like Krile or the twins. The new characters all have POTENTIAL, even Wuk Lamat. She has potential, as do others. They are all valid archetype characters that could become lovely if written well. But the devs don't seem to know how to translate a character sheet into an actual character. On paper their traits all look great and it can work, but the execution is sorely lacking. The world building, the logic of the event progression, and all the dialogues, they are so often superficial and bad...

"Oh no, the city is threatened by powerful airships! Tech kitty is on the case, what can he whip up with his Sharlayan allies, a cannon perhaps like the one G'raha built for the train? Maybe he'll reverse engineer their technology from the last invasion?"

Actually he allies Radz-at-Han... ???? Good to see you again Vrtra but why are you in this story?!

Because they needed a "banger" moment and a cheap solution to the airstrike issue.
