There is a little bit of Daoist beliefs in the game here and there (though I'm not 100% sure if the devs. were following that philosophy)

This game almost kind of mirrors Dragonball in a way, and Dragonball is known for mirroring alot the story of Sun Wukong espeically into Dragonball Super and there is a lot of Daoist beliefs in it.
to me that always sound like an excuse from lazy people who don't want to make things better for all instend they want to kiss up to fat cats behind a desk with their creed and pushing their beliefs on other breeding more and more suffer until people snap and are forced into becoming criminals repeating the cycle.

Its alot like what Illbard (the griffion) forgot how to spell his name said.

People are willing to speak up and want for happyness and joy but they are not willing to spill the blood and do what is needed to make things happen.

But speaking as someone with severe depression, seeing meteion and the last zone actually makes my despair greater. Because for all the positive messages, when you think about it, everything only works out because we are a game protagonist. One who will always succeed, always make the right choice. Whereas real life doesn't work that way. There's no WoL that can help you solve every problem you have, nor solve this world problem (cruelty, greed, selfishness, etc.).

Ah but I guess that's just my depression talking. Obviously it's a bad thing to reach that conclusion, but what else can I do.
Which I dsagree with that completely thats a giving up way of accepting things and letting nothing change because people are to weak to fight for what they believe to fix things they aren't willing to die for the cause to make things better so they use lame ass excuse like that.
