Measuring Up: SPOILERS
I think the game is trying to lower our self-esteem so we feel like we can’t do better and won’t ever leave it. :/
Does anyone know why we have to constantly prove ourselves? Every episode it feels as if we have to measure up for someone for some reason.
After killing two elder dragons and a world-threatening bat-kitten-crazy Sylvari, you would think we have proved how strong/faithful/dedicated/trustworthy we are. What else can we do to prove to these idiots we are the good guy?
Except for Livia, who is a living legend and has saved humanity a time or two, wouldn’t you like the our character to tell those questioning his trust and dedication, “Bite me. I’ve saved the world three times. Who are you to question anything about me? What have you done that gives you that right?”
tl/dr: Aren’t you tired of our characters having to prove themselves constantly?
I completely agree. What has Anise done personally to save the world, nevermind any of the Shining Blade that we encounter. I know the Shining Blade has fought in the past but that was a long time ago – no one from that time is among those who challenge us.
As I said in a different thread, this is just a bad plot idea and either no one could think of a better one or no one had the guts to tell whoever came up with it that it wasn’t a good idea.
it’s this luck based mystic toilet that we’re all so sick of flushing our money down. -Salamol
