FFXIV has lost it's heart

[xbahax92]

Again, there are instances throughout the game of NPCs dealing more damage than the players' party, so it's weird to focus on only this one as egregious.

Mhm, that's why the very same girl also gets kidnapped by a random weak NPC. But it would be obviously egregious to think about it.

Um, that is literally shonen lol

it's ok you can like wuk, i also like yshtola despite her being a plank of wood of a character, no need to lie about her being interesting or anything

As I said elsewhere, that criteria applies to a huge amount of non-shonen characters all across fiction, so that criteria is useless. Or do you think everything with feathers is a duck?

She got kidnapped off screen, presumably by BKJJ. You imagined she got kidnapped by a nobody and then you got mad at your imagination.

Which actually doesn't make it any better.
She gets kidnapped by Bakool Ja Ja and 30 minutes later beats him easily with a literal random shounen power up.

It was much longer than 30 minutes by any metric. It sounds like you've skipped the cutscenes. Otherwise you would remember the time the WoL was knocked unconscious by a scullery MAID with a mug of ALE, then one patch later somehow DEFEATED the dreadwyrm NIDHOGG in combat. Omg what's with this power-scaling???

1. The fight with Bakool Ja Ja was in 2 half-areas after the kidnapping (Southern Urqopacha, northern Yak T'el). Not much time had passed, even in universe.
2. The WoL was poisoned/drugged, not knocked unconscious by a maid wielding a mug, and had already been a seasoned god killing adventurer at that point.
