"In from the Cold" Scenario, any way to skip it?

You're in someone else's body.....That duty was supposed to be pure fear and suspense, thus why Fandaniel says to "scurry around like a rat" which is why it was so good. It was perfect for the plotline and skipping it would ruin the entire setup.

I find it funny how Zenos is able to use his own power when in our body, yet the WoL seemingly forgets any ability they ever had.

Zenos has experience with body swapping and appears to have more direct control over his false echo than we do with our real echo. Both of these can lead o the WoL not knowing how to access his powers in another body while Zenos has no issues doing such.

I mean, at that moment Zenos is wearing a body that has taken down gods. Repeatedly. In contrast, we were wearing a body of a random Garlean grunt who might have seen some overseas skirmishes, but could just as easily never have done anything beyond guard duty in the palace in Garlemald.

If you take two highly skilled Formula 1 drivers and put them both in Formula 1 cars, they're probably somewhat matched. If you take Driver A and give them Driver B's F1 car, then put Driver B in a 1986 Volvo sedan, chances are driver A is going to be able to outrace driver B even in a car that isn't their usual one.

I think a lot of you guys just need to get better at video games.

It has nothing to do with skill level and I wish people would stop saying this crap. Look at my post outlining why i hated this crap.

I'll say it again for good measure: I just wanted direction. Didn't even need to be obvious. The area could've been smaller. You could've allowed us to pick up the battery first. You could even reduce how many pick up items there were (seriously WHY are there so many? I frankly wouldn't have needed them).

For me the story was fine (even if I wanted more of a follow up on this whole soul body split). The idea was fine. I was all for it until I got frustrated on where to go.

Also for the record, the solo instanced duties aren't where I personally want difficulty. Raids, Dungeons, and Trials on the other hand...

I mean the game said what you had to do, head to camp glass. Theres a map showing where you are and where camp glass is. Dots should be connecting. I agree about the battery. You did have to really be paying attention to your surrounding and using your head for the quest.

They gave you direction. They told you to get to the camp. Run through the area in that general direction. You find the broken magitek armour. You need the key and fuel to use it. Find them. The guy is literally in the building right next to it, and if you just turn around and run back you'll find the fuel. They direct you, they just don't handhold you. The struggle is part of it.

Actually that's not how that happened to me. On my first try I was sincerely ready to walk to the camp with all the mobs as a no power garlean and actually happy to do so. Only find, no I can't. Ok... weird but that means I need to do something in the area.

I found the battery first. And instead of letting me pick it up and then go search for something to it... nothing. That was all I needed and I still don't see why we don't pick it up anyways. Could've actually be fun to carry something around making you unable to fight even if you had to. Could've also disabled the minimap and map while you're in the instance.

Like I said. I don't require much. Just a bit more than what I was given. The battery fix is something easy to implement and enough of a change imo.
