Endwalker? More like Escort Walker

[SamsaraTrickstar]

It seems that SE has finally figured out how to implement escort quests and is determined to have multiple ones in every single zone.

Especially during the MSQ.

NPC X has lost sight of you! Return to start over!

ye its get old super fast. at first 2 i was like "wow this is nice" by the 4 and over i was like "come one why thre so much of this and it so long"
defiantly was a wasted investment.

It was nice the first time. Tedious every other time.

What's even worse is the sneak behind and follow people crap.

[Necrotica]

The non combat minigames are definitely getting tiresome.

[PredatoryCatgirl]

As much as I've been defending SE recently...yeah, escort missions are never a good thing, regardless of how they're implemented.

hah i saw this meme comming, i made a joke earlier about how yoshi wanted two more weeks to get the stealth stalking perfect

its a joke

Also that one thing with the takedowns made me think of tenchu

[Missbone]

Im not gonna lie, its allready for me the shittiest new feature from this expansion and the worst feature ever added since the release of this game. Its crap and u cant even take shortcuts via teleport because you will lose the npcs following you and return to the start to get them back. Biggest bullshit ever

I really don't understand how anyone likes this mechanic. I mean I guess walking with people around town is okay but this red light/green light stay hidden BS is really getting old and is starting to adversely affect my enjoyment of this expansion despite how strong the story is. Surely I'm not the only one that feels this way.

Agree with the sentiment that the first time, it was cool. The third time within one XP level was tedious...

I also sat in a 20 minute duty queue while running MSQ and accepted near the end of one of these escorts only to find I had lost quest progression. Decent idea, awful implementation.

I LOVED those parts. It's a fun puzzle for me. Figuring out where to hide while staying nearby.

They'd be better if the NPCs didn't randomly ascend into the sky or fall into the ocean and get stuck.
