I have a suspicion that Yda, Papalymo and the rest of the "useless characters" are going to gain an awful lot more affection with whatever events unfold as 2.5 moves into its third part. Since the trailer had them handling matters during Ul'dah's coming dissolve, I really feel like we're gonna have them turn the corner.
Or at least, here's hoping so.
