Thread: 2.5 - Before the Fall

If they had any sense they'd push it in 2.5 since only one method of obtaining them is in 2.51 and this game desperately needs minigames... Those two pieces of trash we got in our Inn rooms are utterly pathetic...

Give me a quest in 2.5 which introduces you to the game and rewards you a starting deck and let us go off playing NPCs and just add more in 2.51 with Gold Saucer... Been waiting too damn long for this thing...

Sigh already mention of the next relic upgrade and I'm still only a little over halfway through the light grind with the whole zodiac grind ahead of me.

Back on topic:

I doubt anything like that will happen to Cid. Most likely we will escape all fancy action style and then one big cliffhanger ending to foreshadow Cid and Nero's role in 3.0 Main Storyline.

I can see it now... Cid and Nero finally bury the hatchet before running into a Calamity orphan. 3.0 fluff fetch quests will revolve around helping Cid and Nero care for their adoptive daughter: Cidney.

In all seriousness though, I don't think I expect Nero to make it out. He may redeem himself in the end by saving Unei (he certainly tried at the end of Scyrus Tower), but I can't see him coming back... Well, I can see Cid getting trapped their for a while and Nero taking over for a bit... I just can't see what else they can do with him at this point.

I would question why you even come to that conclusion but I worry it would only fuel more of your fantasy.

So back on the topic:

We don't really know much about Cid's personal life. His background lore has mostly been focused on his career and how it was affected by his father and the people around him.

I won't be surprised if he had a girlfriend before he left the Garlean Empire and never knew he was a father due to leaving before learn about his own child existance.

Though that would give SE a reason to put Cid's son or daughter as a temporary antagonist working as a Garlean Engineer before he or she turns Protagonist.
