Thread: Zenos will return in 7.0

Nah, nah, see whats gonna happen is Zero is gonna go missing and they are gonna find her scythe, thrust into the ground from the handle and go "Wait, isn't that Zero's scythe..?" and you'll notice that the scythe isn't an "r" shape anymore but more of an "n" shape and you'll see the whole camera pan over to Zero with a Zenos stare and say "Ahh.. hello again friend".

Okay, I'm done and going to get coffee.

He's one note.

I wish they started committing to character deaths in the story. They're still milking Haurchefant and Ysaille.

So...we just gonna ignore that time he kicked our butts...twice?
And...those 2 are dead and they've stayed Dead. Same with Ilberd, Yotsuyu, Emit, and Teledji. So its not like the game Never Kills Characters and keeps them Dead

Not the first time that's happened. At the end of ARR, we need literal divine intervention to beat Lahabrea (especially in the redone version, where he outright kills you before Hydaelyn steps in), but by the end of Heavensward, we take him and Igheyorhm down at the same time, including their merged Ascian Prime form. The WoL does canonically grow stronger all the time. We're like Saiyans or something.

I think it made him somewhat unique though (still glad he is gone out of the story, and hope it wont go back to keep his state as he is). Having a single dream, not caring about anything else going on, not caring about the chaos you are bringing, you only have 1 purpose and only care about that. His character did fullfil that well. Completely careless actions, no emotions, and just behaving like a puppet to just get to that one dream you wanted.

And it worked, because story wise, he was still on the background most of the time. The actual dangers were rarely coming from him. 1 of the expansions would have just been the same without him. Even the time pressure aspect the story had was already there. Zenos didnt make any changes there. With it, the way zenos died, it actualy fullfilled his dream, which i think is a nice finish to it. Making it not his final action would be a disgrace.

And that one time he could kill us, was the one mission i cared least about. Stealth in this game is just horrible when you have played actual stealth games with plenty of options to go for.

7.1 Zenos SuperduperMegaUltimate fight. Please look forward to it!
Zenos looks at you at the start of the fight and if your using any addons or cheats you instantly die forever. As soon as you login after that anytime you instantly die.

Zenos, Varis and Emet-Selch as the Garlean Royalty Trio Ultimate Trial. :3
