Yoshida says he isn't shocked by Dawntrail's story mixed response

[HyperiusUltima]

Something tells me we’re going to run a Stormblood-esque Post-patch where it’s actually going to be interesting(and not infested with a certain spotlight hogging cat).

There are also now a few extremely loose threads here:

- Sphene’s Crown: How is it different from a normal regulator? If an Endless dies, what does this regulator do?

- The State of Solution Nine: We already got a peek into this through Arcadion, but we have to remember: Soul is fuel. Soylent Green is People. There’s also the problem of Levin Sickness, which is physical and a cure hasn’t been found yet. Solving this problem is going to take a while since that is inherent to the reflection they are from due to the Storm Surge. The original Sphene even died from it!

- Division between the Scions: Just to get the record straight, yes - I get why people are mad about everyone coming back together AGAIN after we beat a BBEG from the Void, and also disbanded at the end of 6.0. I was in the same boat just rolling my eyes when Ysh’tola the Exposition Device showed up - but looking at it from a story perspective, what if 6.0 was all a pre-cursor to the ACTUAL story? Even I agree we could’ve fit all this into a post-patch story, but they probably have plans for the Scions to butt heads down the road - and if they don’t? I’m gonna be pretty disappointed in Yoshida for lying to us on the PLL. I want to see that Divide in beliefs, as well as paths they tread so that there are some conflicts that create an interesting narrative between our main Scion cast. We didn’t see it in 6.0, but it better be in post-patch.

- allegedly the crown is not a regulator. Also Endless does not use them
- Garlemald was left frozen with some off-the-screen help (but nothing visible)

We got the key and the crown. Wouldn't be surprised if we got some more Azem stuff. Solution 9 will continue in some capacity, maybe similar to Garlemald. Also in 7.1 Cosmic Explorations are expected, so we are going way away from those zones.
