Cassandra Posted February 21, 2017 Share #26 Posted February 21, 2017 I feel like they're blowing a lot of potential content out all at once. I thought this was supposed to be the expansion for liberating Ala Mhigo and focusing on Monks, but it seems like it's now the Ninja/Samurai expansion with maybe a tiny little bit of freeing Ala Mhigo if we really want to. It all depends how things are handled. I wouldn't be entirely surprised if we fail to liberate one of them or some other misgivings happens along the way that carry into 5.0. Heavensward did an excellent job portraying the difficulty in changing dogmatic beliefs. I, for one, would love to see us fallible-- that even the ever vaulted Warrior of Light can objectively fail. But better to take a wait and see approach. I have plenty of concerns with Stormblood from a content and gameplay perspective, but after Heavenward, story is not among them. Link to comment
Tagyr Posted February 21, 2017 Share #27 Posted February 21, 2017 I'm kinda curious about Yugiri's Roegadyn companion. He was given a Doma name, Gotetsu, so it is a bit different from the usual. A new clan entirely? Or a Hellsguard/Seawolf that decided to translate his name to the local naming conventions. As to the content craziness. Whatever happens we now have two possible avenues to expand upon storywise. I'm real curious about how the story will make us head to the East. Honestly I'm quite excited since we are back to Garleans again, and we are actually going up against a Royal this time too. Link to comment
Valence Posted February 21, 2017 Share #28 Posted February 21, 2017 Gotetsu is intriguing in terms of naming conventions and subraces, for sure. I'm actually glad we're diluting Ala Mhigo and the Far East. It gives me hope that the Ala Mhigan crisis won't be solved in five minutes by the WoL's divine presence. I'm not sure to follow... If you dilute it and make it 50% instead of 100% as initially we thought it would be, then that leaves even less time for the WoL to solve stuff... Unless there is nothing solved at the end of course, but it works in both cases. The idea is that many people did not and do not want to see Ala Mhigo 'yay full liberation wheee everything is now A-OK!' at the end of 4.0. Well that's what I said, if it was 100% Ala Migho instead of 50% it could still not be liberated... Ah I see what you mean. There is a smaller chance it gets liberated with only 50% because they will have less space to fill everything in? Link to comment
