After already losing two of my favourite NPCs in Heavensward (one for purely dramatic reason too..) I have only the twins left that I really care about, even if Alisaie does kinda gets on my nerves a bit with her constant jealousy if others are interested in the WoL. But I do absolutely love her banter with Alphinaud and if anything happens to any of the the two I would be heartbroken. Other than that I do like some of the others but none would really leave me feeling really sad. I would probably still cry (because music and things can do wonders in such scenes) but not in any way that I have felt for the two already killed of NPCs. I guess after that I just could not fully connect to the rest of the new cast anymore?

I do have to give it to shadowbringers, at least they made me feel more like a part of the scions then all the expansions before that but I still would not really care if they die. And they too would probably just look a bit shocked and maybe one second sad if the others do too..so yeah most of the characters on the good side feel a bit bland. They are often just there to give us the plot points (and somehow know so much or have the right item at the right time...) and barely react to stuff too. It probably does not help that they are all so willing to throw away their lifes so that human faults like being afraid to die or witnessing something horrible are not really there. And anything is just shown with a few tears sliding down their faces (if they even cry at all) and no hugs are ever given...

Its kinda interesting that our own character has shown more trauma and even a bit of PTSD than any of the others. How ironic that the normally blank slate is more of its own character with some emotions than the rest.
