Please, no more Wuk Lamat

Throwing another tantrum about the few seconds in the trailer, are we?

Once Dawntrail is over it's not like you're going to see her outside small, unvoiced appearances in like 8.4 or 8.5 or role quests and the like. You know, like most other expansion-centric characters. (Gosetsu, Lyse, Fordola, Ryne, etc). This would've happened no matter how well she was received, mostly because she's... well, kind of done? She's not a Scion, so she doesn't get the privilege of not going through any changes and still getting MSQ screen time. They could make her a scion, but... yeah, I don't see that happening in a million years.

The Rite of Succession is over and she has to govern a whole ass country alongside her brother. My point is, whether you like or dislike her, there's no real need to defend her or complain about her anymore. This part of the story is done, and just like we've left behind once very important characters (outside of cameos and small appearances), we're leaving her and I think to a much bigger extent Koana behind as well.

They need to come with some time travel 'ish and have the whole dawntrail island nuked from the map like the characters and the expansion never existed and start from scratch.

Considering the fact that those who disliked/hated Endwalker complained about it in a thread here for over two years I'd say the chances of the complaints around Dawntrail/Wuk Lamat stopping anytime soon are extremely slim.

Would you be saying that if the VA wasn't transgender?

I don't think so.

So many things are going to be blamed on her if this goes as I expect.

I play in french, where Wul is not dubbed by a trans woman. I share most complaints on the character. Japanese and German, the 2 others dub also basically got the same feedbacks. How do you explain that?

Compared to the German dub, Wuk's English voice is more... "pleasant".

Altering the flow of the story just to appeal the loud collective of armchair writers seems like a good way to kill the story altogether.

Not my favorite character But l honestly don't get the hate

Some people have grown too accustomed to overstimulation from current media format and, now, they can't realize the absurdity of throwing a tantrum and making heated demands, all concerning a fictional character.

People asking for proper story telling in a story driven game. The audacity!

The "proper story telling": remove this character because I hate it.

That's all the demand boils down to.

The story has been dead since 7.0 and 7.3 has been CBU3 going "NONONONO" and sticking xiv with a defibrillator over and over, going by the teaser at the end of the patch's MSQ
I don't think they need the community's help since they seem perfectly capable of killing their game on their own
