E4 is the best fight in the game and you cannot change my mind on this fact. It is a culmination of all of my favourite fights thus far.

Mordiceius posted:Agreed with all of this. I feel like the Eden story has pretty much zero personality currently. I'm just going to spoiler the rest of this so I don't have to selectively spoiler it. Why do you think Nomura is writing Eden?

My opinion on Eden is that the fights are amazing and the story is a fart. However I assume they had to put the main writer on a couch and feed her some of Soken's strategic chicken supply after banging out SHB, so in the words of Primus, "they can't all be winners."

The big phase transition attack on E1 wins the award for most ludicrous attack to ever not kill anyone. poo poo is ridiculously extra.

That's what people are making fun of you for. Also fuckin laffo at thinking normal raids wouldn't be puggable for a week. A whole slough of us did it before you made that post in duty finder groups. You were straight up wrong on that part.

Without the Nomura parts you don't really say anything.

(MSQ End Spoiler) Wife and I finished the MSQ last night, then at our lunch date today we poured cold ones and said a toast for our boy Emet. We may have gotten a little into the story this expansion. What an incredibly good choice to come back to this game about 6 months ago after playing ARR and not since then. Shadowbringers is definitely the best MMO expansion I have ever played. The final dungeon alone is probably the best dungeon I've seen in any MMO and maybe any RPG altogether. And that little smile at the end. Man. I guess we can try raiding now?

'f ya want me to excise the name nomura from any complaints, that's no skin off my back. the stuff I said about nonsensical dream logic driving the plot (such as it is) I still stand by, and if it's the same writer as the msq (ishikawa, I believe?) then I'm shocked

The concept of voidsent in the First and rebuilding a shattered world is more interesting than "remember FFV" especially since the bosses are plot related instead of just plotless cameos. All the Raids are slow burns. Almost nothing happened in Bahamut or Omega.

Me and two other goons just carried a group of pugs through E4. Everyone had double rez sickness multiple times, we used the Healer LB3 twice, and it took like fifteen minutes. The fight's fun as hell, it's just very busy. Taking a second to sort through my AST cards would get me killed right quick.

Alpha’s personality of timid, yet craving companionship is established. A connection is established between both Alpha and Omega, hunting at deeper mystery. What character development had happened in the Eden raid story so far?

I am still one of those that Omega is only redeemed by it's final act. But it's final act was really loving good so Eden will probably be fine.

I thought Omega was an interesting character right from the start, tbh. An naive, childlike alien intelligence that's sort of playing with us because it doesn't understand anything. That said, I don't mind the story of Eden so far. Sure, there are no interesting new characters yet, but to be perfectly honest I feel like having both Mide and altogether too many goblins really dragged Alexander down. More is not always better, if it means you just spend more time in boring cutscenes. I like the fact that with Eden there are no antagonists at all so far, just an almighty, amoral tool and a ruined world. I do think it was incredibly dumb that the group decides to just wake up the thing that destroyed the world after a minute of discussion, without even consulting anyone else first.

All of the raids stories have been bad right up until their final act, with the sole exception of the Ivalice 24 man raids, which were just bad. I haven't done Eden yet because work is stupid, but it doesn't surprise me in the least that the story sucks so far. What does surprise me is how many people are defending it being bad though. They don't have to write two lovely raids tiers to get to a good 3rd one guys. I know they keep doing it but it's really not as mandatory as you might think.
