It took until Shadowbringers for either one to have any meaningful impact on others.

I found it incredibly insulting that Ysayle dies in front of us, Alphinaud says a generic "Nooooo, my friend. Anyways" dialogue and we just move on. What was that!? Where's her grave or memorial, where's the people she led, what happened to anything related to her? At least Minfilia makes some sort of comeback, but Ysayle's case was just depressing...
