A game for 4 year olds

[aveyond-dreams]

Lets revel in our childishness together. I was so happy to see them running around their new old homes and splashing in the water. Everytime I have to collect another set of them in different places I am like "aww you are just too cute". I laugh at Stigma-4s humor and I am happy that now after the newest rank up the dragons do want to come to the cafe if you ask them in a side quest.

I also love that both the dragons and the Ea bascially can now become parents. One couple of Ea sitting down watching their new creation and wondering what they should give them to eat. And one answering that on our planet people like Pudding.

If all that makes me a 4 year old then I am fine with that. At least I can still feel the wonder of such a place.

Does anyone else get weird vibes from this post? The offputting nature of it aside, I'm thankful that other fantasy games don't cater to whatever this sort of player is supposed to be. Uncomfortable is only one of many words I could use to describe this.

...No? Just reads like an appreciation post with a lighthearted poke at the topic.

The vibes here are no weirder than your posted attempt at fan fiction to rewrite Endwalker to your tastes.

I actually thought the poster you were replying to was being facetious, to be honest, not creepy.

Off putting because I simply find our otter friends cute and that I am happy that the dragons and Ea got children?
Now I have read it all.

And yes the part about being childish is a poke at the topic because seemingly all those of us who like the beast tribe (which would be a lot of people according to the forum, reddit and youtube) are called 4 year old by people like the OP. The rest of the post are stuff that happens in the quests. Of course one only knows that if they have done them.

Edit: If there are so many fantasy games out there who dont cater to someone offputting like me why are you still here? Why are you still paying and talking about a story that is for children? I at least enjoy these quests, what is your reason?

Oh sweetie, when you grow up, you will learn to how to read between the lines of posts. And also when you grow up, learn to know that liking something that is lighthearted and even a bit "childish" doesn't erase the fact you can also like grim and dark things as well. Us adults can enjoy both, you see.

His reason is he "claims" he loved the game before but Endwalker erased EVERYTHING that was good about it so he wants to post and get the writers "back on track" to what the "TRUE MEANING/THEMES of this game should be", according to him.

That dragon questioning if maybe he'd get to see Etheriys some day makes me wonder if we could just ferry the Ultima Thule folks over via the Ragnarok if it was needed for whatever reason...though I also question how safe it is to be maintaining a direct connection to the place to begin with.

It also makes me wonder if they might bother having an allied tribal quest again and get them involved...somehow.

I don't think there's a clone Gabranth or anything, I think he just faked his death with Lyon's help. The reports made a point to say that both nobody had ever seen him without his helmet before, and that the corpse was too burned to be properly identified. The only way it could be more clearly saying it wasn't actually his body is if it just outright said that.

And since nothing in Bozja really impacted Dalmasca, if we get a Dalmasca story they could easily not require people do Bozja by just saying "we thought Gabranth died".

It is pretty silly how quickly the despair of each civilization is successfully countered by a meal. But at the end of the day SE is choosing to resolve multiple threads in one sidequest series which will necessitate each one getting less attention than a main arc of the game. As much as I may personally be interested in Heavensward 2: Dragons versus Omicrons the writers aren't wrong for wanting to focus on other things.

As for the overall tone, I'm enjoying the comedy. I'm not familiar with the work of Douglas Adams but even without getting the references I'm finding the characters and writing entertaining.

Not really related to the story itself, but I really like the Grebuloff home area. It reminds me of the City of the Ancients in FFVII.

Correction, the despair of individuals. The entire civilization isn't fine and dandy after that meal, but individuals start to feel better.
