What make her bad her character or her voice actress

The way she is written and how she was ways forced to be the center of attention even when she isn't physically present. (Hell StB's, which people dislike didn't have omnipresence and knows when to dip out)
I don't mind stepping back, chilling and mentoring this new OC but we didnt do any actual mentoring nor have any agency, we're like bystanders watching a runaway train.

The EN dub just makes it more unbearable with how subpar it is. The dub might as well be the icing on a shitty cake.

Honestly, the screaming in small caps and totally unstrained voice while lifiting a giant robot arm and the stealing the spotlight of our only agency is the epitome of both writing and dub problems.

Jesus, they're starting to do a reference sheet for their god damn theses, now.

I just don't understand spending that amount of energy to say you hate something as insignificant as a video game. I know that we live in a time of overstimulation that people actively seek out and do things they hate just so they feel something, but hells.

Imagine that instead of feeling all that wrath and anger, to the point that you actually write a god damn disotation, that you just... walk away?

Yes yes. I hear the excuses. But my friends! If they're really your friends, they wouldnt want you to be miserable. They'd still chat with you on Discord, and play other games with you. If they don't, well... I'd have to say they they weren't really friends, bud. Maybe co-workers

Or But my house! There are many games that allow to own a fake home, with far greater control over them Most even have a one time fee as opposed to a monthly fee. If it's truly what's keeping here, then you aren't nearly miserable enough to warrant writing *gestures at OP* this.

Crap like this why the official forums are a joke. A meme. The friggin shadowed lands in the Lion King to the community at large.

She should just get the Lyse treatment. She’s had her time in the MSQ, now it’s time for the other characters to shine.

Agreed there was way to much Voke Lamat in the story, the line where she screams SPHEEEEEEENE!!! still haunts me to this day...

People have invested real money on this game, not to mention hundreds if not thousands of hours into it. Of course they're going to be passionate about it. I don't know why it's so difficult for people like you to grasp that.

at this point i'd want her gone just to not see anymore thread about this from now on

There's passionate, and there's deranged. I've quit 3 MMOs I've sunk significant time and money in, and I didn't feel it necessary to write the frikkin Disputation on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences every time I did.

Dumb and cringe. At this point it's just a meme to hate on her.



If you don't like Wuk Lamat you either:

Are playing withe the EN voices (why??) (I'll be honest, I truly believe that if everyone were forced to play on JP voices they'd have a much higher opinion of her).

Don't like JRPGs in general.


Wuk is not a bad character. She is typical enough of most JP games in that she's a sprightly, upbeat, cheerful and positive cute tomboy. The only good point that was in the original post was that yes, sometimes our friends focus a bit too much on Wuk (the example with y'shtola calling Wuk instead of us was a good one). After a decade of entirety focus on us, it's not a bad thing for us to take a slightly more backseat to another character, where we acted closer to a mentor than a fully main character.

What a strange take.
I’m not a native English speaker and play with English voices.
The final trial was the only thing were I saw a drop in the voice acting so that’s not a reason. I don’t even get the finer nuances in the va.

I might play JRPG’s longer than some of the players here are playing video games at all.
Most of my video game library is of that genre.

I still don’t like Wuk Lamat.
Even for a JRPG character she was too one dimensional and too much in the spotlight.
Her problem is that she is a bad JRPG protagonist in a game were there is already a protagonist, namely the WoL and those two roles clashed completely.

She would have worked in a self standing game and story or in a short story and even then people would have had problems with her character because even in JRPG’s the MC normally has more depth than her.

Take Lloyd from Tales of Symphonia for example.
He is a 08/15 MC with simple reasons but he learns to be more understanding, has his worlds views challenged and has a believable growth in his fighting abilities.
And he is probably one of the weakest Tales of character’s personality wise.

Wuk Lamat does not have that.

We also weren’t a mentor. The role quests have us do more mentoring than the MSQ.
We are just there to cheer for WL.

Taking a backseat also needs a clear line drawn because this is still an MMORPG.
You can’t sideline the player character completely from having them be important before that the entire time.
That just miffes those who like their own character and it’s the one thing that was actually brought up as a strength of FF14 compared to WoW.
