Dedicated Thread for Patch 2.55 Story Discussion/Spoilers

[KodiHivaer]

I so do hope that at least Minfilia remains dead (If she even is) the other scions barely did anything anyway... as for Urianger, I knew he was gonna be possessed by the Ascians, that mofo cares too much about a woman we barely had time to give a crap about

I absolutely hate how they introduce a character, kill them off only for them to be some lame plot device for another character, it wasn't really necessary at all, and if all it takes is some love interest dying for another to go do stupid stuff then I hate the story even more than I do now.

Question for the devs:

How are you going to manage Culinarian quest line now that

Nanamo is dead and Lolorito is an antagonist?

[Renik]

Many things we don't know... an epic finale for the 2.X series, we can't know what happened to the scions, i mean Minfilia stayed for a reason. But i know two things for sure, i have many throats to cut and an imprisoned friend to save.

Waiting for Heavensward.

It's been clear something was going on even before part 2. Pretty much ever since introducing Ilberd. But if you can claim that just from all the fishy stuff that was going on allowed you to predict every single thing that happened?

Like Merlwyb and the Seed Seer abandoning, Raubahn getting his arm cut off, him killing teleji or whatever his name was, and that almost all of the Scions would be presumably dead.

And a lot of people suspected that the Sultana might die, but we counted on plot armor to save her.

So if you predicted all of that would happen other than the Sultana being poisoned, based off a few suspicious things, color me impressed.

I do think, out of the good side, if anyone is actually dead it's the Sultana. Pretty sure all of the Scions are alive.

Apparently, somebody else answered this in a different thread; the CUL cutscene is the same. I guess we are being told that any and all crafting and class quests happen BEFORE this point in the story.

Too be honest, I'm welcoming of this patch's story.
To be fair, a lot of 'good' changes came out, and I hope SE doesn't cave in and reverse everything to placate the wussies.

Also...

It's revealed that Square-Enix hired Yoshiyuki Tomino (AKA : "Kill-em-all Tomino") and Gen Urobichi on the writing team just for this patch.

I haven't completed the MSQ yet because the damned dragons are so hard to spawn, so I went to farm FCoB.

But before that I was troll-spoiling on Mor Dhona that

Nanamo is dead and wtf Minfilla had to had sex with the dragons to maintain peace because Saint Shiva is no more

My FC mates knew I was trolling and one of them said they would laugh if it really happened.

And...

Nanamo is really dead? LOL

[Eisenhower]

That being said, if you read later on in my posts how 3 individual moments for just your character (not entire scenes, just individual moments) stack together to say "something is very very wrong".

I feel a bit back and forth on this point, since I'm of the impression that the character wasn't informed of the personal audience with the sultana until after grabbing the vial from outside the city. The hero was simply called away from the opening of the party to chat with a Crystal Brave, got to the meeting point but got stood up and had to rush back to join in on the partying.

Why the hero would pick up or even hold on to the random vial like some sort of kleptomaniac hobo is beyond me.

With everything the Scions have been through already, all the betrayals and traitors, one would think they would be more aware of things that are out of place, but they don't.

Yeah the Scions are running their operation poorly, no doubt. I really have no confidence in Minfilia as a leader.

Why do ppl even troll spoiling MSQ in shout, and yes you spoil the story for me and maybe other players as well because of your shout in Mor Dhona.

We are know something is gonna happen to Nanamo and then you decide to shout in Mor Dhorna that she is dead, which turns out to be true and totally spoiling it for others. Next time STFU and stop trolling

[SecretCrowds]

What's with Urianger?
