Sorry to dredge this up but I guess I'm still hazy on a few points. As a non-Legacy character whose adventure is starting fresh with XIV, there are things about the opening scene that still confuse me.
Please see if I'm understanding this correctly:Â
All player characters were time-skipped, regardless of whether they are continuing from 1.x or are starting new. No exceptions. All players are part of the skip. That is non-negotiable and is the significance of the out-of-body opening sequence.
It is left to the player, of course, to decide why the character was at the scene of the Battle, how she got there and what she was actually doing at the time. Maybe she was fighting, maybe she was just passing through, maybe she was entertaining the troops, maybe she was delivering supplies, whatever -- those details are up to me, the player.
After the out-of-body sequence, when she comes to, does the character have any clue as to why she is in the carriage? Does she remember the Battle? Is she aware that she was time-skipped? Does she know what has transpired in the world in the past 5 years? Or is she coming to as if awakening from a deep sleep? Does she know the fate of friends and family? Does she remember them (I know civilians may or may not remember her)?
Sorry for so many questions. It might have been easier for me if the game had started with a recap of the Battle as opposed to the out-of-body part but I'm sure I'll sort it out (with your help!). Thanks!
