      I believe its canon that Lalas are are exceedingly strong for their sized - they have very dense muscles which is why they can run and jump as high and fast as the other larger races. If a child sized being with the strength of a full grown Roe or Hroth came charging at you wouldnt you be scared?

      You can actually do that. In Heavensward, if you return to the ARR sections of the game (most notably Mor Dhona), you can talk to some Crystal Braves members who are practically shitting themselves talking to you. They try to act tough, saying things like "You're not worth my time", but it's clear they're terrified of you.

      @miriamweller812 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@pastelaliens4634 It clearly is. The joke is, while you are an invincible murder hobo who solves everything with boring, scripted fights (what makes no sense = bad writing on its own), its not even done in some cool way.
      WoL and his Mary Sue Scion buddies (just as immortal as the WoL with a ridiculous row of fake deaths) never even are what plan the antagonists got, since the also don't need any plan. It's all about just going in, because they obviously even know themselves, that they got plot armor and don't need to do anything else.
      Take the oh so praised Shadowbringers (a giant shit show of a story actually, but the FF14 fan community will defend it with arms, legs and teeth without even able to name a single point that is good about it).
      What plan was there to defeat fatty? None. You pull a mountain sized golem out of your ass, which then doesn't even fight, it solely acts as a stair way. You go up and punch the guy to death.
      Emet Selch: an ultra wizard who can teleport at will, can teleport YOU at will, can create giant cities with whole monster armies, can obserever you the whole time without being seen himself, can appear and dissapear as he pleases and that faster than a flying arrow. He won, you were fucked, he could gain absolutely nothing from fighting you, still he does and just does not care to be killed, while he could easily avoid that. I had the hope that it was all fake, that this tenthousand year old mastermind just pushed you to become stronger so he could still follow that ominous other plan he never talked about, to save the first and the void by merging it with the source again, healing the planet further. Instead he was just retarded thanks to plot armor and you punch him to death as usual, because instead of nuking you without any chance, he just stand there and takes it for no reason at all.
      Elidibus: the heart of Zodiark, the only reason anythign still exists and isn't consumed by the planet eating bird brain, in absolute contrats to Hitleryn, the planetera genocide monster, that ripped apart all life and tortured it for 10.000 years, with the clear plan to let all the shards just die, because, hell, what else should happen? And Plan B was to flee with the moon of the source anyway if not some plot armor Mary Sue comes and magically kills the planet eater ( you know, instead of having a whole planet of super wizards, who could easily find a way to fight it...) by, well, plot armor.
      So Elidibus saw how his braindead friend 1 died for no reason (because hell, Square itself had ZERO clue in AAR and SB where their shitshow should go, so Lahabrea was just a cartoonishly evil ultra idiot without any clue, if you play the story again from the start, it makes even less sense...), then his not braindead but obviously for no reason retarded friend 2 died, so he gets the idea, that he should be retarded do, does absolute shit nothing and again is punched to death.
      Oh, of course his retarded friend 2 comes up and saves your ass, because why not, makes no sense, but who the fuck cares.
      "Remember we once lived" is that retarded sentence the fans cheer for.
      Emet Selch says that to a brainded puppet that got zero clue about them, nor shows ANY interest in it.
      You are told: hey, you were some super special guy back there, you know, of the actual real people, not that fucked up, slaughtered farce a single Super Hitler made out of everything and -one.
      Reaction to that from WoL and Scion? NOTHING. They give a fuck.
      "We only care about us! We die anyway in a few years and all the shards will collapse for sure, because they are bleeding out fractions of an actual real planet, but who cares about them? Fuck those guys! We want to stay the tortured fragments of life, we don't want to heal the world and hope for a future."
      What was the thing the Mary Sue Cat told you the very first? Don't tell the people of the first the truth.
      Yeah, I wonder why. Their planet followed the fate of every shard = collapsing and there is no chance that this will change, becaue a bleeding out fragment is a bleeding out fragment and when you look at what little bit was enough to collapse it, there is zero chance that this won't happen.
      Imagine you told them, that they could get to a version of their planet that is not doomed to die. The lore of the world know about soles, about rebirth. So overall it's simply about that they would be reborn on the source - if not even just finding a way to bring those few survivors there via the CT for example. Not even starting to talk about the void, what overall wasn't even a try of the real people to kill it, the just hoped to heal their friend, Ultra Hitler had slaughtered and distorted. No talk about that as usual.
      The FF14 story is as disgusting as boring bullshit. You play the braindead soldier of some magical Super Hitler who wants to keep the new "uberhumans" in power, instead of restoring the real world and stopping that hellish tyranny.
      Imagine someone in the real world would 'solve' the problems by just slaughtering all humans and making them some kiny of short living, aggressive monkeys who die every few monthes, while all continents are ripped away from each other and all but one slowly dying out. That's what Hitleryn did and what you are just forced to accept in this game as absolutely fine and the right choice.

    I think one of the strongest points of Stormblood is that it shows how much of the Garlean Army are conscripts, natives from conquered territories who are coerced to fight, from being in the wrong place at the wrong time when the conscript gang arrives at their town, or to protect themselves or their families from extortion or worse. It could be that by that point most of the line troops you face are native levies, with Garleans serving in supervisory roles. And so most of the “garleans” you are wiping out are in fact non-Garleans who had no choice in the matter. You don’t even get to see their faces before killing them. War is hell.

      That's when PC players figured out mashing 0 on the NumPad with NumLock on can quick activate and accept the teleporter prompts. I used to relish in surviving and escaping the really huge pull as a tank because that was fast enough to get the teleport off even when under fire.
