Thread: Revelations from Patch 2.55 [SPOILERS]

True, and while all the available choices ended up in essentially the same result, at least there was a choice. (Although I don't think any choices in XIV would have the galaxy changing results that ME3 had).

Lore-wise, my issues with the PC's actions aside, my biggest disappointment was Yugiri's reveal. There is just a moment of slight surprise and everyone moves on like it's nothing and her appearance is no big deal. I expected at least some sort of mention of who the Au'ra are, why we never see them and why come Heavensward, there are going to be a bunch of them running around Eorzea when previously there were none. Unless they're going with the "They were here the whole time, just disguised with Galmour/Fantasia" route, which I feel would be a huge cop out.

The stance could be made that you always kind of knew Yugiri looked different, and while you were surprised at how she looked for a bit you just got distracted by everything that happened.

I think it would break the flow if they tried to explain who the Au'Ra are considering when she was revealed. I think they'll probably do it soon as the expansion draws near, but not yet.

Yugiri says that she lost her mask in the struggle in Limsa Lominsa while rescuing Tataru.

Doesn't that imply that the half-dragon person has just been wandering around Coerthas with no mask on? And everyone's completely chill about that? Or is it just supposed to be a case of "Oh, she's a ninja, she probably just vanishes into the shadows whenever anyone is around."

I'm not going to give much details, but if you guys are a PLD. There is some information that maybe interested for them.

Doesn't mean what you think. It's a pretty classic political move, actually, and absolutely doesn't change what we know really happened.

So?Besides the news of her assassination was publicly. Also that ncp is one part of the order that mant the oath to protect her at all time. Most of them are uncorruptible, including him. No reason why he would lie to a PLD friend ( us ).

Lying? What are you talking about? He's telling the truth as far as he knows: he's been informed she's taken ill and denied an audience. I see no reason why Lolorito would want the Sultansworn disbanded, so this is just one more ploy to keep things working in his favor.

Forget it, I just wanted to said that what Jenklyns and Pasashan said to us, dont make sense.

Eh, I imagine it'll be brought up in time, but at the moment there was a bit more going on. I'm guessing that after being betrayed, losing the people who stood by your side, and in general being pretty much at your bleakest moment, it would be very odd to go into a long talk of why Yugiri looks like she does, or things like that. Betting it'll come up in 3.0 at some point, but it's really not the time or the place for it.
