i think something that hurts nier's narrative is the fact that all of the non-androids look exactly the same, and many of those look pretty similar too. having every non-android character be a dwarf - meaning no facial expressions (or face at all really) and identical clothing - makes things all the more difficult to focus in on

do we know exactly what laws of reality were changed/rewritten by Zodiark? i wonder how that whole ordeal changed life on other planets.

my friends were some of the lucky few to get through Raubahn (Extreme) during 4.0 and would tell me how weird/cool it was getting to Kugane when there were maybe 3 other people in the whole city. including a guy who was already level 70 somehow??

I cant remember all the pieces to the puzzle now but back in like 4.4 some people puzzled out how it was G'raha before the Crystal Tower was even mentioned and it was such a thorough, convincing thing at the time that i just completely bought into it. before that though i was 100% on the "future alphinaud" train

wizardofloneliness posted:To me, a character who is "evil for evil's sake" means that they were just born evil and don't have any real reason or motives to explain their actions other than that they like doing it. Zenos is the only character who could be described like that, but he's still kind of a mystery. Yotsuyu and Nidhogg are both undeniably evil, but they didn't just wake up one day and decide to start killing people. That doesn't mean they're sympathetic or redeemable though, just that they have actual motivations driving them. zenos was raised from the word "go" to be how he is, he had no chance. "evil for evil's sake" as this conversation is defining it basically doesn't exist in fiction anymore unless it's done as parody of that idea (ie the "i don't want to cure cancer, i want to turn people into dinosaurs" guy and even he might have been brainwashed by Big Dinosaur propaganda as a child or something) or it's like, a baby story for babies. if you expand it to "person acts evil for reasons which seem unrealistic or stupid to the majority of humans but are still A Reason" then there's more to talk about but i feel these sorts of conversations just sort of circle the drain as people list out reasons why someone did a warcrime or a genocide, because of their childhood Countblanc fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Dec 6, 2020 |

I can't stop thinking about when the scions were like "those floating towers look like Garlean tech!" When like... no they don't. Not even remotely!!! Why did they say that lol

If 6.0 adds a healer and mdps then between those and dancer and gunbreaker that's really not that much leveling to do all the role quests

WrightOfWay posted:Presumably, populations keep increasing so there must be new souls entering the cycle of rebirth. i'm not sure it's actually been stated but it feels like one of those things you just have to sorta pretend not to think about. i guess an alternative explanation is that the quantity of souls in the lifestream is such an immeasurably large number that no feasible amount of population growth would ever approach using them all at the same time

also that requires the characters to be very genre savvy and to realize they're in a story with forced drama and stakes by writers. in-world the WoL and allies are almost definitely one of the safest groups to handle dangerous artifacts

That definitely feels like the original intention from back in 2.X. I expect the healer rework to be a return to that to some extent.

Ferrinus posted:The warrior of light has defeated far, far, far more non-primals than primals, and primals have historically given them the most trouble and required the most preparation and backup to even engage at all. yeah basically. "going primal" is a lot less of a boon against the WoL than basically anyone else, but it's still a boon. it's not like Thordan was going to have any sort of chance to beat us in wrinkly old pope form, only by becoming a primal did he have anything resembling a chance.

Cleretic posted:The Lodestone stories like setting up the idea of Y'shtola and the WoL, but the game never really met them on that (or on... basically anything really, I don't think a single Lodestone story has laid groundwork picked up by the game). I honestly only see that in an 'only two eligible people in the group' kinda thing; they only get together because there are literally no other options. Granted, Y'sh seems to warm considerably in just that situation, it feels like that's how she and Runar grew close, but it's still not much. krile is the only scion who fits my WoL really, because i simply cannot calibrate to lalafell with any other race

i would be super disappointed not to fight him because i, the gamer playing the game, think he would be a bomb-rear end fight with great lines e: note this means I hope we don't do more solo duties with zenos because they're contractually obligated to make those exceedingly boring

I don't think Zenos sees war as a purifying force, he just likes fighting to a truly bizarre degree in a narrative that generally wants you to take the idea of violence-as-solution a bit more seriously Coincidentally this is also why Zenos is hilarious and owns

It's valid to trust thr writers but still not love every character, subplot, etc. I'm very excited for EW's plot because I love Zenos, and Fandaniel has been a delight to watch torment him, so when people are like "don't worry, have faith, they'll fix the bad guys and make it good!" it feels weird to me because... it's already good to me! I love what has been teased and set up! I want more of this! I'm totally ready for EW to just not work for some people at points because of the characters involved.
