It helps that Melee was maybe the only one that made good usage of the landspace it had.
Thavnair only having a zone and a city really hurt Caster.
SCH players do a boss in the Camp Bronze Lake polls for like the third time.
Ala Mhigo weirdly only kept to one real zone for ranged.
Coerthas... yeah.

I at least deeply appreciate it being one of like three times the team has acknowledged that Dunesfolk traditionally lightly poison their children so they build up resistances and immunities for the inevitable betrayals they'll face in Thanalan.

The supporitve but slightly condensending tone of original Misty
I don't know why

Let's not forget a frankly absurd amount of time spent in these films dedicated to very explicitly shiptease
Especially of relationships we know don't fucking happen because of the 02 Epilogue

Riding high of ending the Dragonsong War, even with Papalymo's loss, she's feeling herself and "just dealing with Garleans" she lets her guard down, uses it to cut her teeth trying to truly learn this new fighting style... only to get STOMPED with dozens dead and almost losing Yshtola too.

They got rid of Mayuri's floof and that's like 30% of her character.
They killed 30% of a girl and that should be illegal.

It's funny because you can read it that the soul of the Dragoon job crystal is so inherently tied and soaked with the blood shared and spilt between man and drake since the First Brood settled in Dravania, it draws upon the progenitor.
But also the aspect that we ARE kind of pacted with draco daddy.

Not done much to plan out post-4.0 on that timeline.
Zyx actually meets Zenos the first time in Yanxia and almost wins then and there, but has more active Ascian interference to stop that.
The Royal Menagerie gets accelerated into a trial-scaled version of the 6.0 duty, but still done as a duel.

Then there's the Ul'Dahn Zyx...
Things HARD diverge at Baelsar's Wall.
Murks Ilberd before he can summon Shinryu, eats an Eye themself, and Papalymo has to use the other to seal them for some time.
Papalymo gets to survive, Zyx doesn't wake up until the raid on the Reach and spirals out from there.

There was official statements around Pokemon Day this year that ZA was launching in November to give "Extra time" for the game's polish, presumably in response to the state that S/V launched in.
And in that big internal document leak, it was originally aimed for FY 2024, so likely a march release.

It genuinely feels like the DLC was always slated to be the Holiday push for sales
So when the original release of the game got pushed back several months, it lead to this real damned situation.

A range of feelings about it, to say the least

He needs his full Rhalgrification

One of the most Berrymelon coded motions possible 💛
