Meaningless Battles...

[Mimilu]

This would have been a good chance to have the fight utilize new or interesting mechanics where Golbez himself is not necessarily the target/victory condition. It could have just been at...10% become a "Survive until your allies can evacuate you!", where Golbez leaves the battlefield and we deal with his mechanics but he's out of reach (think like Xande meteors).

And, at the end of the fight, no victory music, no kneeling Golbez. He's still good to go, albeit roughed up. And we're chasing him, but we're too late to stop Zeromus' awakening. Rest of the scene could play out fine.

Alternatively, just let us kill him- but it not be Golbez at all but one of his Voidsent just looking like Golbez. A bait and switch while Real Golbez is finalizing his summoning/awaking ritual.

Another alternative could have been to have use just fight the transformed Azdaja without Golbez. He could of sic'd her on us, knowing we'd weaken her enough for him to accomplish his plan. (⑅ ‘﹃’ )
I really hope they aren't going to try and wrap this story up before 7.0, it already feels like it's progressing too quickly for me. (●´ω｀●)ゞ

Please don't give them idea dumb ideas, let this garbage filler end already. 6.X story is for me on the same level as ARR story.

Anyone else kind of OVER Square Enix lazy writing? Namely, battles that mean nothing.

Every battle is now meaningless without my " Hissatsu: Kaiten " mhm.

So if it was meaningless before? it's now extra meaningless... Meaningless uptime I tell you!! big nods!

Just lock the door or I'll come in with pizza.

Pizza isn't much of a threat; you know, unless you are talking about one of those mayonnaise and peas abominations. Now, there's a threat.

After watching the drama unfold, I am assuming this is the part in the story where we all find out that they're both the same person.

Your crusade has touched a chord in my heart. To show my solidarity, I'm going to put aside my staff, books, and robes for a bit, and take up the katana.

Hissatsu: Kaiten! Hissatsu: Kaiten! Hissatsu: Kaiten!

I'm tempted to say "that's right" just to see how the other account reacts.

Deny nothing. Or deny everything. Doesn't matter, people will always believe what they really want to believe. Or what others trick them into believing.

The what whats? I don't think that deserves to be called a pizza any more.

Japan has very weird sense when it comes to pizza. Well, to my American brain…anyway.

Unless you really really like lots of mayonnaise with lukewarm corn.



On topic: I do wonder what the point of the Golbez situation actually is. If this is his one battle, and he lives, will he be redeemed in the end? Or will it be a solo duty thing? Or is Zeromus gonna eat him?

And (spoilers), what effect is this going to have on the first? If I understood Y’shtola correctly..she’s..going to…weaponize.. the empty?

Pineapple lovers and pineapple haters must unite to destroy this unholy abomination.

There can be no peace with the heathens of the pineapple nation. Never peace. But that... thing? Thats proof that god is dead - no just god would allow such an unholy creation to be.

[Tsumdere]

Corn is actually good on pizza though.

Anti-corn pizza propaganda is made by pineapple pizza fans.
