Hildibrand for relic? Really?

[GoatOfWar]

I like the Dark Knight one (which is the only one i have so far) since it reminds me a bit of XII. I expected a bit more extravagant honestly

I don't like any of them to be completely honest. They look like npc weapons.

Hopefully the glows are going to be magnificent.

The relic weapons look turbo generic anyways.

This was my biggest disappointment with these. I'm pretty sure the monk one has been done before in this game as a PvP reward.

Okay so hildi quests could have just not been a requirement and literally nothing in neither the relic quest nor the hildi quest would have had to be changed.

Looks like they used one specific plot element mentioned at the very end to tie things together. Felt tacked on more than anything, but it is what it is I suppose.

Yeah it seemed very odd you had to clear the story that was released with the patch and then there's not really anything in the story that meaningfully links them

Honestly.., it would of been more fluid plot wise, if they had godbert just slide in/nod/nudge-nudge that they'd like to speak to us after.., but they shoved it in to the story pretty hard.

but either way..,
<off topic.., what's the best Astro-tomes grind..,?>

but yeah, i have no problem with it being tied to hildibrand.., I get that some will find it a struggle. but tbh, it makes sense..,
it's largely split off from the larger antics of the main Hildebrand series. but it does poke its head in.

It's mostly disappointing to me because I'll basically just be skipping any cutscenes throughout this relic line. Hildibrand is just not my sense of humor and I'm glad it's a side quest that people can enjoy on their own. I did actually watch the first cutscenes and tried to just hope that I could get into it, but once we got to Godbert slamming into the ground with a Looney Tunes outline, I knew I was just going to continue to be disinterested.

I'm glad for the people that actually enjoy that content and story, it just isn't for me. I just wish it wasn't now directly linked to a form of gearing/progression. There doesn't seem to be a good reason why they are intertwined.

Hildibrand isn't everyone's cup of tea for sure, and that's fine. Guessing this was their way of killing two birds with more stone. More Hildi "story" and relic weapon grinds in one fell swoop. More Godbert is never a bad thing for me, so I don't mind.

you had 3 months to get them done, quit your crying
