So yesterday I decided to sit down and actually finish the main storyline for A Realm Reborn. Started by Killing Shiva (which was cool - geddit?!) then realised I had to do the Hard versions of primals before I could do any more story. Killed Hard Ifrit, so far so good...then I queued for Extreme Leviathan for some reason. I think I saw the word Navel and thought of the sea or something
You see that? 90 minute queue, and that was after I accidentally withdrew after a 30 minute queue, and before I withdrew again and had a 20 minute queue. I spent a large chunk of my day queuing. And when I finally got in we wiped about 7 times before we did it. But we did! So that's good. Of course, only afterwards did I realise my mistake so then I did queue for Titan and Garuda (funnily enough their queues were waaaay shorter).
Then someone told me it'd be a good idea to go visit a dead dragon in the middle of a lake, so I did. Got a stalkery head sitting dragon out of it:
...and then Minfilia got kidnapped again, which resulted in capturing and killing an Ascian at the expense of expendable new character no.23 - Moenbraya. All the while the Crystal Braves are starting to be a bit dodgy and Wilred is suddenly dead. D:
Fast Forward to a bit later, Nanamo is dead ( foreshadowing meant I saw it coming by I'm still a very sad panda); Raubahn went crazy and lost an arm, all my scion buddies actually earnt their keep for a change by sacrificing themselves, so I was left to escape on my own. I met up with a very whiny self-loathing Alphinaud and now I have to start a new life as a fugitive by hiding away in Ishgard while somehow hoping I'll be able to clear my name. And rescue Raubahn, poor guy.
Bit of an emotional roller-coaster there. It was epic, but now I feel sad. :(
On to Heavensward I guess!
You're not much a fan of the scions, huh.
I like the characters, but you can't pretend your character doesn't do most of the work. :P I've never even seen Minfilia in combat and then all of a sudden she stays behind to save me.
Yeah, they're pretty annoying like that. Honestly I'm hoping they are actually dead. I've been rooting for the ascians for a while, because I want to fight Zodiark and their robes are awesome.
I figured that Zodiark would be like the last boss of the game or something, but I've only been playing a month so I daresay I'm pretty ignorant about it all. But they can't mention a big bad and not give us a chance at it. C:
I'm sure they will, though who knows how many expansions it'll take.
Was decorating a friends house these days... he has a Nanamo shrine THAT is scary D:
But yea the Scions are lazy ass most of the time (or always) and I always wonder why my char doesn't point that out...
I'd say creepy...
And I don't know - some of the scions actually DO stuff like actually DO!
But yeah Minfila is rather useless...
And everyone runs around in the Minfilia outfit... >.<
Look at the bright side, only girls can run around in Minfilia outfit. You won't see me in it LOL.
Well it is not like the most of the playerbase does anything else than getting carried... with Minfilia you at least know what to expect or not to from her.
I am personally interested in Alphinaud's future development. He could be pretty badass... for an elf.
Yeah Archy that's what we all thought after the BCoB series too. Then he turns into more or less a whiny teenager in Heavansward.
He's still a flat, trope of a character.
