So after playing through the DT MSQ, and needing a palette cleanser, I decided to make an Alt and replay the MSQ from ARR to EW (and probably skip my way through DT as fast as possible). First off to the people defending DT with "At least it's not as bad as Stormblood" you all are factual wrong. I just finished up Stormblood on the alt and it is better.
But that is not what this thread is about. As I was going through I completed the Return to Ivalice storyline, knowing I would want to get Bozja unlocked on this character, and that got me thinking. Why didn't DT take place in Dalmasca? Yea we got the raids and Bozja, but like imagine that area expanded out for a full Expansion. Without giving to much away, the set up for the area is better in place for us to play Mentor, and would just overall be much more interesting. Also it would make more sense, rather than some annoying rando dragging us to a random place for reasons that have no real connection to us, we've directly interacted with the people of Dalmasca, we've fought beside them, and we've seen glimpses of their country.
