*SPOILERS* Terrified for the remaining Scions!

[Snorky]

The death of a favorite character can be moving or even a non favorite character death. One of my very favorite movies of all time 'Terms of Endearment' every single time I watch it I cry. These types of experiences of feeling through others pain are not to experience always. We also have to feel joy and laughter for it to mean anything. Such is life a work of art whether fantasy or rl. This game will move on how it accomplishes that matters. So far this story is driving me personally and I am enjoying it emensely and more important I am enjoying it with all of you. WoL will move on but where will they go and what will they be or do next that is the real ❓?

From my own perspective is not about of forcing deaths but being tired of the huge amount of fake deaths, it's like can you stop making this fake moments and kill someone for real for once? fake deaths are a narrative resource but like many stuff in this world abuse of this resource lower the quality of the story, it makes it predictable and uninteresting since you know no main character is going to die or suffer mayor injures that incapacite them forever, and what's worse is when it actually happen the moment doesn't have the impact it should due you expect them to come back somehow killing the flow of the story bcs is what that always happen.

The other problem i see with the story of this game is the poor balance betwen the good guys and the bad guys, while the whole cast of the good guys has remain inctact with almost no losses the bad guys has been taking heavy blow again and again, that lower the threat astronomically and they can threat us with destroy the world or strip us of our skin we know when the moment comes we are going to be there and slap your face so hard and effortless that you are going to see the deep space and see who is the next poor bastard that's going to fail even before they put in march they plans again.

This game have a general fantastic world and concept of the story but the execution is really poor for the need of fanservice, what it's seems like an a mature world setting with consequences and ppl suffering this flow is complety erased with victory after victory from our part, the good guys surviving always and losing only minor secondary characters while the other side lose his main characters one after another until the only thing you have is a flat couple one doing nothing but warming the chair waiting you and the other burning the world bcs why not.

This is because the bad buys have not yet formed the Society for the Advancement of Evil.

Since most of them end up dead, it's easy to see why this is so.

What huge amount of fake deaths? Or rather whom? Are you talking about Y'stola being caught in the aetherial sea? I am not sure about this huge amount you are talking about?

Yeah, there was that one time, and everybody is still salty about it. They ignore the fact that if you don't see an actual body, nobody is really dead.

Yshtola in ARR,HW,SB,and ShB. All the scions at the end of ARR. Thancred in ShB. Graha in 5.3, arguably base ShB. Yotsuyu and Gosetsu in SB. Probably more that i’m missing.

[TheMightyMollusk]

Yshtola in ARR,HW,SB,and ShB.

Being fair, the ARR and HW examples are the same incident. She disappeared in 2.5 and wasn't found until near the end of 3.0.
