He only even knew the guy for the duration of the 3.0 storyline and now they're best bros and practically shipping each other? I don't know.I took it as Alphinaud essentially wanting to at least save one person to make up for his 2.0 screw up parade. He bonded with Estinian a little during the Churning Mists quest, but I took it as him essentially wanting to do right for the first time in what seemed like ages. Initially he hides his insecurity under morally disagreeing with making sacrifices, similar to his persona in 2.0, but I got the impression it was always personal to him. Estinian is not really his friend but rather someone to save. The convenience of the situation aside, I did kinda like Alphinaud achieving a small victory to make up for all his failed plans before. I like seeing him develop, and I'm curious about his sister who has been a non-entity for ages now and appears to be making her return.
There definitely were flickers of brilliance here and there, and I do agree with Verad that probably a happy ending is not conducive to RP and the interests of Ishgardian players. But I think that the story might have gone over better with me personally if they just put aside the Ascians and the Scions for one patch cycle and focused entirely on the internalized conflict.
