    Tournament arcs aren't my cup of tea, but I'm liking this so far. The fights were challenging without a lot of cheap mechanics (i.e "BS! I wasn't in that!"). The story is already more compelling than the whole of the MSQ; it helps to have likable characters. I wish, though, that they would have taken a far less serious tone and delved more into the tropes of professional wrestling. I want to do pre-match interviews with Mean Gene and talk trash about my competitors. Perhaps the WoL could turn heel; that would be fun.

    I agree 100%. I would have loved to have a less serious tone and to have some silly fun with it.

    Looks like they're going back to the older style of melee uptime, for what it's worth.

    Why is it that the girls they introduced in less than 30 minutes have a more compelling story than the 30+ hours we spend with Wuk Lamat.

    Arcadion is good and a breath of fresh air to the game.

    Absolutely agree. They don't try to be anything more than they need to be, acknowledge you without overpowering or outright simping, treat you decently, and have a hook that makes sense and ties into the theme and culture of the zone, are competent as can reasonably be expected given their circumstances, and don't get in the way of the game.

    I yearn for more Monster Energy Kitten.

    The decently part is correct and funny.I thought the annoyed civilians were going to try to fight us lol. I was sitting there like “please restrain yourself. I dont want to do this”

    because they have actual purpose to fight, (without going into spoilers) and peace was never an option.

    Arcadion is easily the best thing about Dawntrail so far in every way. SE don't screw this up. The Dawntrail redemption has started.

    My biggest hope for a redemption is them listening to the near universal dislike of wuk and write her out of as much future content as possible.
