Not quite spoilery observation

[Santherelle]

Conversations like this in the game bug me:

Minfilia - "Oh no! (NPC who you don't like and know is going to betray the Scions eventually) was injured in (an incident)! (NPC) is in really bad shape! You should go to (location) to see if (NPC) is all right!"

Player - *Nods mutely, and occasionally gives a thumbs up*


When in reality you want the conversation to sound like this:

Minfilia - "Oh no! (NPC who you don't like and know is going to betray the Scions eventually) was injured in (an incident)! (NPC) is in really bad shape! You should go to (location) to see if (NPC) is all right!"

Player - "Have that idiot drink a healing potion! Why doesn't the moron do that instead of panicing and calling you? They are less than 100 gil! Heck I will give you some gil to buy a bunch and give them out! Heck I have 99 of them in this magic bag I have, take them, I have more important things to be doing like killing another primal, stopping a Garlean invasion, exploring an ancient ruin or planting onions in my garden! Quit bothering me!"

Healing potions have saved my life on more than one occassion. Their are a variety of them, and each of them are for certain level's.

The regular pots, while playing DD's at low level's is fantastic. Hi-Pots are amazing, Ethers help blm's when you want to get that extra Fire I/II/III in their!

p.s. With the addition of future NPC's in the expansion...they may be even more useful.

Maaayyyybbbeeeeee.....



And Miles, even if they are junk it is enough to save someone's life after the fact.

[DefendPopPunk]

Even if they died, is it so hard for them to home point and run back to where they were? Or are NPCs so special that they can't be bothered to pay some gil to teleport and do some running?

It was a half hearted joke.

It was a half hearted joke.

I know it was. my reply didn't reflect that properly.

but yeah they are pretty bad with that forever cooldown time in most situations.

While I think the same thing occasionally, I have to pause and remember that those tiny, insignificant chores that we get sent on are what let us discover the actual events that require our attention.

Deliver this letter. Oh hey, the recipient is having a shady conversation with an imperial spy. That imperial spy had information about an invasion. We infiltrate the enemy headquarters and thwart said invasion. Random primal summoning just cause. All is right in the world. Now go give these shoes to the homeless man half way across the continent.
