Mrs Manderville needs more screen time.

**Daisy** · 01-14-2017 12:35 AM

I'm ready for something new.

I agree. At the very least can we not get him showing up for almost every patch? I appreciate that some people like him but his humour is very niche, over the top and development of his side quests detracts from the possibility of adding other side quests that are both more in-depth and interesting.

I miss the days when we had the game world and NPC's fleshed out through the Moogle Delivery quests. They were fun - and I was hoping for a Heavensward edition of them.

Same, I don't really care for him. Luckily they've not gated any content behind that trash this time.

It's a shame you don't enjoy him OP, my SO really dislikes him too.
But I for one enjoy the comic relief for the most part, they also learned to not link fights required for trials etc to him a while ago so you can just ignore these quests if you like.

You cant please everyone.

Oh I would like to fight Hildi's mother, Julyan at some point. I mean... that says everything.

I'm pretty sure plenty of people still enjoy the questline. Not every aspect of the game has to appeal to everyone universally.

I'd love more Hildibrand, but only if they can make it as good as 2.x (or better, of course)
3.x quests were... empty. It's not about being funny or not, they clearly didn't put much resources/dev time in the 3.x quests.

Actually, just put more resources in all quests.
Make less quests ; more resources for each quest.

Without him there, its just Hildy being stupid and no one really competent around to move the plot.

Well the lack of resources is due to Hildibrand Series being pushed into 3.X era. Originally Season 2 was planned for 4.X era but due to how horribly Scholasticate Story failed to provide a little hearted story people wanted after the bitter sweet storyline of 3.0 SE had to try to fix that by pushing Hildibrand into 3.X since he was the easiest character to use for a little heart story. Scholasticate Storyline was originally meant to cover the entire 3.X story instead of Hildibrand as the "Hildibrand" of 3.X but of course they didn't provide a little hearted story from it and only added more bitter Ishgarding politics and more sad face moments instead.

Hopefully the original Hildibrand Season 2 is porperly maintained for 4.X considering they now have to adjust some aspect of that storyline to fit 3.X Hildibrand storyline into it.
