Launch Trailer Hype Thread

I might be remembering wrong but didn't we defeat Nabriales without the Blessing of Light? Midgardsormr had sealed it moments before, hadn't he?

I don't mind the theory that our character has a tougher time with mortal enemies but we shouldn't be getting completely trounced by a single Legatus at this point, which the trailer seemed to imply. A stalemate or Zenos having a slight edge due to some unknown power we weren't prepared for, sure (which might be what happens considering the glow on his sword). I dislike power fantasies as much as the next person but going from hero to zero is just as undesirable without justification.

The Ascians aren't really that much stronger, they just have access to a "get outta death" card that we ultimately started being able to counter by the end of ARR. The Legatus are supposed to be the best of the best Garlean wise, so this one being an equal to us shouldn't be that much of a stretch. If anything if we just beat his butt every time not only would that totally kill suspense but would just have me asking why we don't just go ahead and invade Garlemald on our own if literally nothing they throw at us is ever a challenge?

I'm not really sure how strong Ascians are supposed to be but Nabriales had an ability that could control time, that should rank pretty highly. As for the Legatus, we've killed Nael twice, Gaius and the primal that killed Regula. Considering that, I just find it odd that Zenos seems to completely overwhelm us. He isn't even injured, tired or fazed. I'm fine with losing against enemies, we can't be Übermensch that do everything and I'm absolutely sure Zenos will have some sort of hidden power we can't counter, I'll just be disappointed if it's a one sided thrashing. But I'll wait to experience the actual story, we have no clue of the circumstances surrounding the fight after all.
