What Zero Could've Been

[Zanarkand-Ronso]

especially with the disdain and indifference with which she treats the men who dare to commit the sin of wanting to get closer to her or in Runar’s case, making the mistake of caring about her in a deep way.

.....you must really like Magnai if you feel THIS bad for him being called Little Sun.
And what mistake? Y'shtola acknowledged his love for her, and even said she would work on a way to perfect Dimensional Travel, pretty much saying she will try to find a way back to the 1st, and even to him.

I know you aren't going to see this because you have me on ignore, but this is textbook niceguy/incel talk. How dare a woman not respond in an acceptable manner to a man's unasked for advance.

I don't even know what he's talking about when it comes to Y'shtola. Its like he's mentally blocking her out when she's on screen and is missing all the context of her character. Like nothin he has said is even remotely accurate.

Zero, while not terrible, isn’t exactly the sort of female party member I’d add in to a mix of her, Y’shtola, and Krile. I would’ve rather seen that slot been taken up by a woman who leans more into the feminine type, as opposed to hey just look at me I’m strong pay me and I can solve your voidsent problem by just hitting things and turning them into rocks.

Krile is literally my least favorite of the Scions but even I can see that this description is completely at odds with what we know of her.
I'd even say that she leans very heavily into the stereotypically feminine character archetype you say this game is completely devoid of.

I agree, if any of the female scions lean into that sterotype its her (And perhaps Tataru ) though that could be due to the fact that out of all of the Scions, she is the one who has had by far the least devlopment. I am looking foward to that changing in 7.0!

Wait what ? G'raha Tia, filling the role of a seductive demoness ?

I think that burger scene really did a number on aveyond...

Oh, you hadn't heard? He's a home-wrecking sexual harasser now.

In the sense that he continues to terrorize the player character in every scene he appears in and can’t keep his hands off them. A demon by way of that and more a clingy sort of creature whose attempts at seduction and getting close to my character fail repeatedly because he acts so strangely. A pity that they couldn’t at least have done us the favor of making him conventionally attractive if he was going to behave in such a manner.

Sounds like your own personal headcanon. To each their own though lol

You speak of him almost as if he was a sexual harasser, which mate… really? I get the feeling after a MSQ scene you must just stand there and /slap the poor guy. Plus Gra is hot! Not the hottest guy in the game sure (Hello husbandos Hein and Alymeric!) but he is cute!

.w. to each their own I guess?

G'raha is literally the kind of guy I'd call a child. He's way too scrawny and jovial. I'm pretty sure Y'shtola's hotter than he is

Ok but really, the game has other "romantic interests" in the MSQ, I fail to see why people have such an issue with G'raha. Is it because of his fanboy mannerisms and animations? They themselves are creepy for some, but it's not really a dealbreaker for the rest of his admiration for us. It doesn't make him a homewrecker, and it much less makes him an harasser.

I've not been shy about voicing my opinions on Graha, but I won't go into as much detail here as I have elsewhere, lest the swarm descend upon me. Do I find his mannerisms off-putting? Yes. Creepy, even. But I'm also a very "arm's length" kind of guy, so I hate those sorts of interactions by default. I get that he's a popular character and I have no problem with that. I just don't like what he has become. Everyone has their own personal preferences. He just isn't one of mine. I wouldn't go as far as saying that he's a homewrecker and sexual harasser though. That seems like it's a bit too much. For me, it's about personal space and he doesn't always respect that.
