A game for 4 year olds

[Cleretic]

Whining that the people you're arguing with are 'writing essays' is basically just trying to turn 'my argument is thinner than everyone else's' into a win. It's not exactly a top strategy.

No need to count 'em up Cleretic. Endwalker wins handily in terms of nameless deaths, given its story features multiple planetary apocalypses.

I was mostly going by 'on-screen' deaths and bodies. It handily wins by implied deaths (with the runner-up there being Heavensward just because it was the one that confirmed that the Ascians were mulching more than just the planet we were on), but in terms of either 'we saw a death' or 'we saw a body' I'd wager it's between Endwalker and Stormblood just because Stormblood does have kind of a lot of battles at fairly large scale, so we did run past a lot of bodies in stuff like Doma Castle and the Ghimlyt Dark. So it basically comes down to if those numbers beat Garlemald and the Thavnair revisit. However I will note that between those Endwalker's casualties were more strongly characterized, while in Stormblood we were pretty much only walking past geometry that looked like bodies, or soldiers that got no lines.

If we allow an additional tier of 'only strongly implied deaths' which include us seeing an event that logically had a bodycount while not seeing the actual bodies, then Stormblood holds the lead through the multiple military base destructions riiiiiight up until Endwalker leaps ahead with the Dead Ends' Karellian stretch, where it is strongly implied we watched a man fire the missiles that killed an entire planet. But I feel like when we start counting by that metric we're just splitting hairs for the fun of it.
