Thread: Revelations from Patch 5.5 (Part 2)

I just really wish our choices would actually mean something for once. Really it’s just random flavor text to try and make us feel important or like we have an actual say in things, but it just falls flat because everything is so scripted as it is. Even the small choices we do get, they arent varied at all. For example the Misija choice, i wanted an option to say its not Menenius or Gabranth's fault either, but alas it wasnt an option. Honestly i was asking myself the entire Bozja storyline, why arent we helping the IVth instead of the Bozjans. They seem way better lmao. Guess we always have to choose the underdogs though.

I was happy with that outcome, personally. Given that the Warrior of Darkness and the Bozjan Resistance slaughtered a medic even as she desperately pleaded for mercy and for her friends to not be slain, the protagonists had even less justification for their usual drooling and screeching about morality.

All in all, I thought it was a tasteful representation of the horrors and complications of war and exactly what I hoped we were going to experience back in Stormblood.

I guess I need to rewatch cutscenes. When did we slaughter a medic?
