[Dawntrail Spoilers Within] Just beat MSQ, my review

[Rubieus]

So I just beat MSQ right before the servers went down. Which gave me time to reflect on the current state of it.

Story: 7/10 - The first arc was fun, a bit janky with the rite of ascension politics. Seriously, he should have been eliminated way before then.

Music: Soken. I love your previous works. I know they can't all be bangers but that number during the train upgrade, yikes. Also the lo-fi dark side wasn't doing it for me. 5/10

Dungeons: Wow. Just wow. I loved each dungeon, the atmosphere, the boss fights. Everything was great. 9/10 (Perfect score is not achievable due to final MSQ trial.. seriously What in the twelve was that hot mess at the end?)

NPCS: 4/10 I can honestly say I enjoyed the side quests and the lore more than the MSQ, and even saying that, most of the NPCs are either so annoying and not memorable or short-lived. (Seriously, the entire advertisement budget was showcasing a new world, adventure! fun in the sun! You hired Rhys Darby! seriously! He is amazing! wish the NPCs were half as memorable.)

Combat: I have heard complained but I am enjoying Viper. I know it's the flagship job but yeah, very fun. I main GNB (obviously, also thanks again for that.) 8/10 Sometimes the CD feel sluggish? Like the game is trying to keep up with input commands and other times, it's super fast and clean. Noticed it the trials and one dungeon, but all other times, it was fine.

TL;DR: Just listen to this song that was made during the down time.

Thanks for the review. I finished DT MSQ last night & I would agree with your assessment.
The music was ok for some of the areas.
The dungeons are great. A lot of spicy moments...lol
The MSQ was ok. Nodded off several times during the MSQ. Some of the quests were just annoying & tedious, like adding fillers to make the MSQ engaging.
