Aye, it was nice to see that change finally happen.

Lol

Given they already fail on fundamental security aspects, it would be absolutely hilarious for this game to try their own anti-cheat.

Would never happen. Even if it does get rid of that and becomes wholesome, it'll still remain the "Anime game"

ARR nyahahah ascians was anime af, but it ramped up the writing later.

Next time Endwalker absolutely ruined it by adding boingo boingo sound-effects, magical girl Y'shtola and other anime tropey writing.
Dawntrail is just this weird continuation of that, the themes and the way people talk and act are just very anime melodrama, a far cry from the writing we received in Heavensward -> Stormblood -> Shadowbringers

Is it an anime game? Not really, but does it have extremely tropey juvenile anime dialogue, sometimes pretentious themes that anime goes to in a surface level manner because the manga writer read a philosophical buzzword once in a book? Yes

Let's be fair, the two are usually interchangable lol

And that is only going to get worse seemings SE is leaning hard into a more anime style graphically now, Calyx is pretty much just a manga character to the point that he looks weird compared to the other characters. It was mostly just because the game was Japanese and suffered from the worst of manga tropes before

i hope they turn the game into a soulslike one day
