Wow, Wuk Lamat is really single-handedly ruining the DT story...

I miss Asahi. He was written to be hated, and hammed it up so well and was so entertaining he looped back around to being almost kind of likeable, if only for the entertainment factor and the disruption he brought. The exact opposite of Wuk Lamat, who was written to be universally beloved, and well here we are.
Let them pull the same trick they did for salvaging Stormblood back then, but fish Asahi out of the Aetherial Sea and give him a redemption arc. I may be joking, but I'm almost certain I'd unironically enjoy that more than pretty much anything that's actually in the works.

Asahi is dead, like, dead as hell dead, unless the next expansion makes us adventure into the abyss or Aetherial sea to refight our villains. Honestly, that does sound kinda cool, to interact with the villains we have slain in the past, seeing them and talking to them again.

Forming a new adventuring party shonen-style, recruiting all the defeated guys. "Look everyone, the world has gone horribly, horribly off track. We need to fix this, and I need people who can get things done."

Except Zenos, pls. I don't want him to try to gaslight my WoL again that we are "friends".

I would say, just like the game does about Wuk Lamat, but funny thing is, in Stormblood Zenos asked if we wanted to be friends, and we could choose to accept or not. We got more agency there.

Why would you use the word "gaslit" here though? The narrative gave player full agency on whether we want to agree with Zenos or return his feeling. Very unlike Wuk Lamat where we don't have a say of becoming her dearest friend, because even when we're given the option to say no, other NPC will insert for us.

The fact that a stalker felt less suffocating than Wuk "I wanna be Dawnservant, dattebayo!" Lamat is kinda hilarious.

I'm trying to give the MSQ a chance; I was excited about a less epic story. Like an anime between arcs, just some light hearted fun but, this is just awful. Soooo disappointed

On another note, if people still believe we were mentors to Wuk Lamat, they obviously never played the Red Mage quests or did but skipped the cutscenes. X'hrun tia is actually an embodiment of a mentor, not us.

So you're saying... some kind of 'Suicide Squad'?
