God, I need this back in my life

I loved Hilidbrand questline. It was far more interesting, better written and had more suprising twists than main scenario in patches. And there was nice humor. So if there will not be new Hilidbrand I will be very disappointed.

More Hildibrand please devs...

Hildebrand is meant to be silly, irreverent and cartoonish.
He is a joke character and even brings other joke characters from the FF series into his questlines.
To me it is a nice change of pace and something I greatly enjoyed playing.
They shouldn't make any of the content required for Roulette unlocks or anything like that, but they should definitely continue with Hildy and other such optional ongoing sidequests and storylines.

Hildibrand is very much a slapstick comedy routine, and naturally that doesn't sit well with everyone.

The quests themselves have had highs and lows (The 2.3 and 2.5 questlines were fantastic, while 2.4 was actually pretty damn awful) and I'm in agreement with those that say that too much Hildibrand runs the risk of becoming stale extremely quickly. Even the 2.x series started to get a little old when Ulty was introduced but then the 2.5 quests and the finale completely had me in stitches.

I'd love to see Hildi again but not if it's going to be the same old one-time gags.

If we end up going to the moon, I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't see Hildibrand til then. Take into consideration, he did survive a huge fall, being buried alive and yet he's alive. So I can imagine that if we are to see his quirky antics it will be with him on the moon with blade in hand which honestly would be fun to see.
