What Zero Could've Been

Do you have the aether(50 million gil) to get us back on topic? It'll cost you a lot.

Idk if they do, but I do unless you mean 50mil in gil to everyone then no.

So...about Zero...you know...the main topic...?

I was shocked when he turned out to be the leader/founder of the Patriots.

Dang and here I thought Zero was the cooler version of Mega Man. Or you know Jack Skellington's dog

I thought zero was the ninja from borderlands.

Nah, I'm pretty sure she's a member of the Companions in Skyrim.

Oooo. I love that Alien robot or whatever they're supposed to be. Their Haikus are really great just as they're finishing landing a cool sword blow on an enemy. Way better then that Genji guy who's just a Storm Shadow ripp off who I hear always needs healing. He probably should stop standing in all the bad.

honestly id say to just report this thread as sexist/off topic from original discussion and move on. most of aveyond's posts are a stretch but i've never wanted one to be nuked so badly.

Nothing that I have said is sexist, no matter how much you are eager to throw around the term. We didn't need another "wow she's so strong and cool" sort of party member, both FFXIV and modern media in general is oversaturated with this sort of thing and it's exhausting.

So you’re mad about this strong woman trope. I can guarantee you’d be on here complaining about if the new character was a damsel in distress trope. It’s all subjective and everything has been done before.
Not to mention we JUST got introduced to her.

If it's done badly? Of course. They need to figure out what it is that makes heroines like Garnet, Yuna, Aerith, etc compelling and likeable. As if I haven't already explained just why and how those characters worked several times over. Zero's role could've easily been taken over by a male in the cast, she may as well be a male Viera given her facial appearance, but I suppose for now I'll have to deal with Vrtra's whining about his sister instead.
