The most powerful plot device in all of DT

[Auro_Seldaris]

Remember when the Ananta summoned Lakshmi in the Ala Mhigan Throne Room, and not only did we not just stand around and do nothing, we actively led the counterassault while protecting people from her tempering? And remember how it wasn't just a cutscene but an actual battle instance? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Remember when Lakeland/the Crystal Tower was being attacked by Sin Eaters, and not only did we not just stand around and do nothing, we actively led the counterassault? And remember how it wasn't just a cutscene but an actual battle instance? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

And then not only do we just do nothing while Tulliyolal gets attacked, we stand around and do nothing while Gulool Ja Ja gets merc'd. The gameplay and story integration have fallen off a cliff. Admittedly the 7.3 cutscenes were better, especially that last bit with Calyx - more effort was put into a single patch's cutscenes than the entire DT MSQ, but still there's massive room for improvement.

We've just been through our "343 Industries didn't realize Master Chief was the main character of Halo" moment with DT.
