How could the developers destroyed Tural like this?

you wanted to go to a place that we call the new world and find savage, cannibalistic tribes?
I'm not even against the main message that they could've done more with Tural, but man lol

There was no enemies, being it cultists, savage tribes (perhaps even cannibals), old mysterious ruins, conflicts, tales of ancient beings, forgotten and dangerous places... nothing. Everything is peacefull and happy and extremely uninteresting.

Would've caused more than a few consultants to lose it I'm sure.

They're all for "authenticity" except when they're not I guess. At least we got skibidi pibil.

This post was clearly made by a Garlean lol. ‘Savage tribes?’

And uh… why cultists ? Do you mean you expected them to be some ‘witch doctor’ shaking a stick around a fire…?

Calling Living Memory ‘happy and uninteresting’ is certainly a take too. I guess it’s a perspective thing? Seemed like literal hell to me.

Attitudes like this is why Tural is such a toothless continent where pretty much the only enemies we fight in the whole of Tural are the local wildlife (which are probably also just misunderstood).

What's wrong with cultists? We had cultists in ARR. We had them in ShB. We had them in Endwalker. Why is this suddenly bad in DT?

Also Living Memory isn't in Tural.

The game could certainly have used a bit more Bone Tomahawk and less Disney sanitised Pocahontas, to be fair.
