Questions about your reception to Dawntrail

- ShB, like maybe 5.3? Idr. I was a sprout for a long time. I did play a bit in late HW but college and personal stuff kept me from getting too invested
- I will be playing at launch but not early access; I’ll be on vacation then. Otherwise I would be. For better or worse I’m emotionally attached to the game at this point. I’ve tried to get into other MMOs, but my friends are here
- there were quite a few developments from the media tour and job-related PLL that left a bad taste in my mouth, like the BLM and SCH changes seem kind of bad (for different reasons; BLM looks cool but will feel worse to play in many situations, and seraphism looks stupid but will be cracked). Sadly I think the AST rework is only superficially interesting and mechanically very feeble, but tbh I was expecting worse. but I will probably be playing BRD, NIN or GNB and they all look fine. SGE’s changes are a small step in the right direction so will probably play that if I’m pushed into healing. There’s also stuff I’m super excited for, like trying out Pictomancer and Viper and exploring Tuliyollal. overall I’m more excited about DT than I was about EW at this point in time, even if some changes or lack thereof are problematic in my eyes
