Meiteron posted:the latter was done with a lot of work to tie it into the actual world of XIV and set up actual world building for the MMO we're in Was it? Because imo exposition doesn't count if it's done in the most dense and insufferable method possible, with the driest and most insufferable NPCs available.

Dragon Dad specifically tells the WoL in like, 2.5 (4?) ish that Hydaelyn is running dangerously low on aether and that's why he shot you through the face and took away your Blessing of Light, because Hydaelyn was killing herself protecting you against stuff like Ultima, and because he thinks Crystal Mom is helicoptering you.

Chillgamesh posted:Tangentially related to this conversation, why does Amaurot still exist after Emet-Selch is defeated? I get why Anamnesis Anyder is there (it's real), but shouldn't the phantom Amaurot have disappeared? He built that poo poo to last. It's staying until the aether naturally expends itself.

Eox posted:Zenos' Resonance is patterned after Krile's Echo, maybe they really gently caress up the settings trying to make Zenos work and we get a Krile Weapon. The Diamond Weapon phase transition is the pilot activating Oversoul, whereupon they gently caress off to go dunk on Alphinaud. The "duty complete" scene has all eight WoLs looking confused and irritated. The post-trial cutscene is Diamond Weapon harassing Alphinaud about his crush on Y'shtola and embarrassing polisci 101 thesis.

juggalo baby coffin posted:the emet selch stuff is where i really wished the game was more like a mass effect thing where you could direct the story. I felt like I could turn emet to the good side using dialogue options. I understand why the game isn't like that, and normally the writing is good enough I don't mind, but that was one situation where I felt like I could score a diplomacy victory. Emet-Selch created the Allagan Empire, whose main cultural exports are war crimes. To put it in dril terms: wint @dril posted:issuing correction on a previous linkshell transmission of mine, regarding the terror group Emet-Selch. you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them"

Cleretic posted:No, because crucially he's not aware that time travel is even a possibility, because he can't do it. Since the the Ascians are the most capable people on the star just by nature, and they can't time travel, why would it ever be on the table? I think you're letting your dislike of Emet-Selch cloud your thinking, because we, as in the human us, aren't aware that time travel is a possibility, because we can't do it, and I'm pretty sure if some person showed up and was like "sup, time travel exists," every single person would be "loving excuse me?" I'm not sure this is a track that should or could be taken.

Phenotype posted:I thought if we ever get to 14/14 we'd have all the power of the original Ascians though? I think we'd be able to be as strong as the original Amaroutines/Ancients (whichever name you'd prefer to use), since the main(?) function of having a more complete soul is being able to hold more aether in your body, which you can extrapolate means you'd be able to do more insane aether poo poo. But we won't necessarily become 14/14 and then suddenly hit Super Eorzeajin.

Onmi posted:Unfortunately, any KH raid would involve getting Disney involved, and Disney is loving miserable to work with. And yes, they would have to be involved, all the KH OC's are owned by Disney and they are balls deep in taking control of basically anything involved with it. It would also have to be temporary content. That's how previous KH crossovers in other works have had to be. Intellectually, I know this. Emotionally, I refuse to acknowledge reality.

The ship on the logo is a fakeout. When we think about going to the moon, Mini Middy just appears and tells us he can fly us to the moon, then grows huge on the spot like he did in the Omega raid. He however does this in the Rising Stones, smashing through the building,promptly terrifying the poo poo out of everyone in Mor Dhona, and accidentally flattening the city because Midgardsormr is roughly the size of a capital ship.

Cleretic posted:[...]We know literally nothing about what caused The Sound[...]nor exactly the angle they're going with for Amaurot. 2) Things we know about Amaurot given the actual text of the MSQ: a) They're good people and we are supposed to take Emet-Selch's portrayal of his people in good faith because as much of a dipshit as he absolutely is, he went out of his way to not only help us but also say, not try to throw us into the sun, or teleport every Scion and himself (obviouslt not a Scion), six miles into the air and throw a 50 damage rock at each of us, enabling death by fall damage. b) They did not cause The Sound. c) The Sound was not "punishment" for "hubris." d) Amaurot did nothing to deserve any kind of punishment, especially on this scale. e) The Sound is some more-or-less cosmic accident/way outside danger that caused creation magic to go nuts and create horrible horrors as well as terrible terrors. f) The ancients did their absolute best to solve and fix the problem in good faith without unnecessary outside loss. The narrative requires, and outright states, that Amaurot by all rights should have still existed and did not deserve its tragic fate. Lord_Magmar posted:There doesn't have to be hubris for their reliance on Creation Magic to be shown to be poor when it has no answer to The Sound. The point I was replying to strongly implies that the poster thought Amaurot deserved it. How else would you read "What if the End of days was caused by creation magics running amok?" 1: So what do you mean about "What if the End of days was caused by creation magics running amok?" Because the End of Days is caused by The Sound causing creation magic to start shooting out horrible monsters without any input or ability to be stopped. The only way to read this is "the Amaroutines did it" unless you're just repeating what was actually, literally stated in the MSQ as if it wasn't actually, literally just stated in the MSQ. 2: My point does not care about what The Sound is beyond what we know of in the MSQ. 3: Emet-Selch has never lied to the characters at any point in the MSQ, and Hythlodaeus' point about his own creation and aberrant awareness was made to highlight Emet-Selch's own insecurities and cracks in his worldview and the difficulties of creation magic, even for one of the mightiest beings among the already mightiest. "But what if he's actually a liar" invalidates a big narrative aspect of ShB.
