Certain things Square Enix has done have been so similar to plots we've run that we almost thought they'd been reading the forums.Â
However I think they're just really good at foreshadowing events. They put little hints in the lore of where the story is going.
Why not both? I'm obviously going to bat for my friend, but that storyline was concluded creatively before patch 2.3 even came out, before we knew shit about shit with Ishgard or Dragons beyond the original MSQ. When Heavensward launch dropped the bomb about the dragon eyes (beyond Nidhogg) everyone involved basically freaked out at how eerily close the concepts were to one another.
I did think it was a bit of a bullshit excuse to not killed Big Lady V when they revealed Estinien, though. The most prolific dragon hunter, fueled by a ton of dragon power, fails to land a lethal strike? Despite skewering and then driving the spear through her? Alright, SE, we get it; You won't change your quest-givers. I dislike the level of protection that affords NPCs.
