Endwalker Main Scenario Commentary & Feedback

Things & stuff. :P

This is why the closed time loop didn't work for me, there are so many faults with it. Elpis should've branched into an alternate timeline.

The Sound wasn't a product of the Ancients, it was specifically Hermes.

About the ancients

Yeah the closed time loop also did not work for me (but time travel is hardly something that I like). I really thought that maybe they would change their outcome and later would help our fight. Even if they are worse against Dynamis not every Ancient lost control of their magic. But it was not meant to be that way sadly.

Well not directly a product of all the Ancients but a product of one of their own. (So it was not a complete outside threat) And Hermes was suffering that way because seemingly a huge amount of the Ancients threated the new created life as something that can easily just be undone. Even Hythlo just casually makes a robe out of two butterflies. Even we are threated much different even though we have a soul and thus should not just be magical construct. At the same time if something is way too dangerous then even in our world we put it down, for the safety of other living beings. Hermes seemingly does not understand that too. Yet at the end he turns around and is ready to destroy the whole planet...including all those animals that he helped create. Really a messed up situation.

About Zodiark: Yes that is how I interpreted it too. When they called themselves the Will of the Star I started to wonder if Zodiark would still be the same and even listen to the Ancients word if the souls got swapped out with unwilling sacrifices.

About Venat: Yes at that time it was too late. What of course makes it harder is the timeline of it all. The Ancients think in whole different time periods. So who knows how long it still took for the final days to happen after our visit. Could have been hundreds of years or just a few months. But she had to have time to come up with the ship plan, to create the rabbits and more. I guess a lot of stuff could have been learned from us (since we have no idea how much we really told them) but she still needed to put everything in order. And seemingly she never thought about trying to at least tell Hades and Hythlo the truth. I just dont understand the reasoning for keeping it "fair" towards Hermes.
