    It was seven quests, but i just had to skip everything, Tural is a nothing place to me and i cant be bother to care about it. Just saw the last 'meanwhile' quests and they bring Sphene back alive LOL. Seriously, Yoshida needs to depart from this game, he lost his spark, he accepts any garbage his inexperienced developers bring to him.

    I doubt square can redeem this character for me at least. Can we please Lyse this character or have them die making a noble sacrifice. Wuk is the sole reason I have ever skipped a cutscene in FF14.
    My friend, I absolutely understand your hate.

    But IMHO the MSQ this time was decent, nothing as offensibly bad that it would warrant skipping.

    She was sidelined to an apropiate degree and the little thing she tried to do at the start didn't work out, so her power-of-empathy was dialed back to "normal".
    This time, other characters got their fair amount of screentime and the new dungeon was accessible in a very reasonable timeframe.
    And we got a few lore-drops (that should have been in the main-story but alas).

    But I totally understand if you still wanna skip, but we need to judge the stuff objectively, and this heated 2min of hate is getting stale, even for an wl-hater like me.

    I mean it wasn’t really that bad this time around. They scaled her back significantly compared to before and every quests or interaction didn’t start and end with Wuk Lamat.

    I still got the, why are you even here vibes, but it didn’t feel like being trapped by her side like before.

    There are people who will take any instance of her appearance as reason enough to fire up the grievance train again, just because they love hating her so much and it's an easy way to farm replies on the forums.

    Oh yes. It's all about magical forum replies that we care about. It can't be caring about the quality of the story and product we pay money for.

    Honestly, she's been pretty chill so far. Less generic shonen protag and more legit civil service/ambassador. There has been a noticeable increase in braincells on her part

    Though I never thought she was a bad character per se... Just that the writing over all in DT was bad and she was an easy target because they overused her presence especially when comparing her screen time vs actual gameplay screen time.

    I've resigned myself to WL being still big part of the story. I'm not naive enough to expect them to change it in 7.1. And while my finger still twiches towards "skip" every time she's on screen, I'm honest enough to admit her presence wasn't too offensive. Though she still has most of the voiced lines (in contrast -
    I don't think Graha has even one?
    - someone correct me if I'm wrong).

    But the bottom line for me - apart from her being still fairly prominent - is that I don't care about these people. I don't care about those places. For me this is the aftermath of DT (and WL in particular). And at this point I can't imagine any story twist that would made me care. It's one MSQ too late.

    i admit it was my ideal to bring Sphene back i just thought she was compare Wuk lamat a better character let see what they do with her

    through i thought would better have sphene as child the guide by warrior of light to make more interesting story have the scion focus on wuk lamat and WoL more focus find sphene parts then have quest blend together through find the child version of Sphene can order the military force to stop

    Lol, the OP offered nothing outside of "Oh god, it's Wuk Lamat! Please just kill her off!"

    No commentary on what she did that was so horrible this time, outside of simply existing. There are criticisms to be made, this ain't it.
