The Calling

[Morningstar1337]

I quite like when this game gets into diplomatic stuff, personally. At least for me though, Minfilia never came off as being the diplomat of the Scions in ARR. Alphinaud did. Minfilia was really just dead weight. And that's not because she was in a talky role exactly, because again, Alphinaud. Minfilia was dead weight because we never saw her succeed in anything the way other characters did. She was always needing protection.

I mean there is more to politics and management then just diplomacy. A small early game quest-line where the player can see her usual day to day work and help with the paperwork might had gone a long way towards establishing her, or maybe a series of quest delving into the formation of the Scions (with the side bonus of catching up non-legacy players on the lore regarding the Circle of Knowing and the Path of the Twelve)
