#or that loifa has her mother’s soul crystal

[impossible-rat-babies]

the sage quests certainly. exist.

#i am feeling lukewarm about em tbh #there is good thoughts behind it you can see the good intentions there and what they wanted to do #like there’s the journal there! that was good but I wanted info like that in the quest #I get they only had so many quests to work with but still #reaper had the same amount of quests and it was a more enjoyable experience #I think the Sage quests suffer from not explaining enough about things #from gameplay to story #I wish we knew why the lalah was in Eorzea sooner and she wasn’t just like my mom died! #and you’re like wait What #or that loifa has her mother’s soul crystal #or fucking hell that we have the villain’s dead wife’s soul crystal #there could’ve been a good conflict #we could’ve had a more actively stated concept of a villain #tortured by the death of his wife that he goes off the deep end due to grief #using the abilities of a healer to inflict harm #a mirror held up to the WoL #*being a Sage and how it inherently harms others to heal #I see what they wanted and I’m just disappointed it didn’t fully pan out #I enjoyed the last five minutes of the last quest bc it felt like a family. it felt genuine #owen plays ffxiv #edit; to each their own I truly believe there is stuff in content that I will not get #nor find joy in but I ain’t gonna cramp the style of people who do enjoy it #I know people who are obssessed w Sage quest npcs #and you know what? more power to you I support you so much
