i'm not done with the post-HW patches but you know what. i'm gonna talk about my opinions on finishing HW msq. ffxiv spoilers ahead
[ffxiv spoilers, heavensward spoilers]
first off ysayle was by far my favorite character of the expansion and i'm furious that the writers pulled another moenbryda with her. still pissed about moenbryda for that matter. anyway ysayle is cool

hraesvelgr forcing ysayle to confront the fact that the primal she channeled was a fake shiva from her own dreams is the kind of character conflict i live for. and even if i disagree with how it ended, her big moment in azys lla was hype

im focusing on characters rn i guess. i like alphinaud a little now! he got some growth. i like estinien because of how he bounced off ysayle. who else oh lucia i also like her quite a bit! she's kind of a neat foil to cid

i wish lucia talked a little less about aymeric because i find aymeric... pretty bland compared to his subordinate. he and haurchefant were kinda letdowns for me from how people talked them up

maybe i was braced for it because i'd been spoiled ahead of time, but i really didn't feel much over haurchefant's death. don't get me wrong, i think he was admirable and kind and had the WoL's back throughout, but his death was an Eh moment

i gotta move away from characters. uhhh storywise the introduction to ishgard was decently paced, i LOVED the entire section of the story traveling with ysayle alphinaud and estinien that was the highlight for me

things dragged a little after idyllshire/matoya... oh confession i didn't realize yshtola could see until matoya said she couldn't. like i heard she was blind and saw aether before starting ARR so i assumed she was Always like that??? hfjkg

i should talk about trials. ravana and bismarck and thordan were all pretty dang cool, though the former two felt... idk, a little slow as far as trials go? thordan was a fun final boss and his knights made it interesting

it was the escalation and the drama of "ok im a primal god now" that revived my flagging interest in the plot near the end. allag and ascian stuff felt... disconnected, so i'm glad HW finished off with Ishgard Plot Resolution (Sorta)
