Thread: 3.56 MSQ Discussion (SPOILERS)

The time between the start of 1.0 and 2.0 could be longer that 5 years though, so the Yda you get to meet in 1.0 when you start in Gridania could be the real Yda. We could use that to explain the voice change.

I like the patch, but I was expecting longer cinematics.

We know about Omega. But I wasn't expecting Shinryu, but even have sense, as both are together the hardest bosses on FFV. Eveyone was convinced was Rhaglr because it was Ala Mhigo deity. It was cool see him at last in the game.

Also I love Gotetsu presentation. I was thinking as a serious NPC, but was funny guy. Also the preview of some Samurai skills was cool.

The only thing I don't like much is the final trial. I was expecting a trial boss, not a solo trial. But whatever.

Story was ok. I liked the Yda revelation. The solo trial wan't bad either.
It wasn't on par with the 2.55 epicness though.
Also let's not complain about the lack of a full trial dungeon because last time we gave a very negative feedback about Steps of Faith. So they decided to not repeat something like it.
Today's patch was a bit slow paced. I expected something more epic and more action.
Maybe they want to keep everything for SB MSQ.
Also Papalymo is assumed dead right?
They didn't showed him dying though or his dead body or a funeral of some sort.
Is his body supposed to be dissolved into aether after the spell?
If so they could show him die on screen just like with Moen.
Moen got a proper death scene and a funeral scene.
Here we have someone that he is supposed to die off screen but we never see him or his body.
We saw everyone else dying on screen though just not him. I think they plan to "revive" him somehow later on.

I believe Papalymo is long gone by now. We can assume his aether, the aether tied to the cocoon of light was the last of him and dispersed when I KNEW WHO THAT DRAGON WAS appeared and fought Omega (i wanted him to loose xD). Also the spell Papalymo placed on "Yda" is gone with his dead, so...

Main reason why I think 1.0 players met Lyse is because if you watch videos of the Gridanian main story you can see "Yda" is already acting a bit derpy and not very scion-like.

On the topic of Papalymo, all scions have been calling him dead since Baelsar's wall.
