    Everyone is going to have their own opinion. I just found it far too much volume. I single trial would have been sufficient for a cross-over.

    this person don't represent the community, and we would like to see more crossovers, I would love to see a cross with Xenogears or even Valkyrie Profile if it was possible

    As much as I liked them I have to agree. Long term crossovers like this suck if you don't care about the source material ( I hated the last raid series cause I don't care for Tactics)

    Tbf, it had probably more FF12 lore than tactics but I get what you're saying.

    It seemed like the present day stuff was largely FF 12 yes, but the backstory was very much Tactics. Including all of the bosses in the final raid. Plus the present day siblings being named after Tactics characters.

    I have mixed feelings about this tier, but since I'm playing Automata right now, I guess it worked for me.

    Sorry don't agree. I've enjoyed this Nier series tremendously and I haven't even played Nier. It's the best raid tier yet and hope the one for 6.0 will be as good.

    Dear SE, Hi!

    Thank you for coming to my Ted talk!



    On a less jokey note, I think it would be neat if the raids have a greater impact on the world. Say like if you had dragon raids on Ishgard and restoration mechanics had some relationship to the stages of the war, etc. If we're attacking Garleans you might have the siege of Garlemald represented over three epic dungeons. Was always just an aside for fun thought but like I had thought of the revival of Sil'Dih (the city Ul'dah released undead alchemy onto)- with Dante Inferno like inspiration as you go down into the depths of the city, each raid allowing you to then explore those wings later, clearing, excavating, gathering resources, and rebuilding the city. Some people surviving by imbuing their minds and souls into automatons (Vivi / yuke race down in the depths of Sil'Dih). I know we've some basic descriptions and exterior art work but had thought it might be neat if it had a beautiful undercity look (so not undead once restored), underground flowing rivers and cavernous city with the exterior up above still mostly in ruins.

    I feel with three huge dungeons (in essence) you could tell some pretty big stories for the game. There are some like this already but I feel they're not quite front and center in terms of impact (until ShB slapped the crystal tower and was like "this one now matters" lol). Which, for me, isn't to say anything bad about the Nier (it's actually got a lot of cool ideas in it both combat and non-combat gameplay, the whole exploring it and getting extra lore bits have been very nice), or other like raids, I just think it would be neat if they had a greater direct impact to the game world. Like, not saying to do this now, but if the Prima Vista (airship) from the tactics raid was granted under your ownership then that raid would have been legendary and massive impact (and while it was fun as it was, .. personally wouldn't mind it having a far more direct impact to the world).

    I just wish they did the story for the raid better. Especially the now daily quests.
