Sadly not all stories will entice everyone, and I'm on the same boat of not being able to connect to this raids storyline. Prishe seems cool, but when you have characters and quotes from the game without context it becomes a game of 'i don't follow' and 'I understood that reference!' Example: The Ivalice raids I enjoyed because I enjoy Tactics and get what they mean when certain characters pop up. But like when Prishe says 'You won't stop this flood of mortal existence!' I went 'i'm sorry, what?' because it's taken out of context and makes no sense when we as the heroes are throwing down with her.

I can understand wanting to show off other titles (I like Nier but the storyline as a whole befuddled me), or wanting to go 'We are going to splash a bit of FF 10's ideas onto this raid' but in the end, a more original idea might end up winning everyone over.
