I'm kind of glad that they're attempting to fix the game with updates, but the whole new Luna cutscene fell flat with me. I think that the Lunoct romance is fundamental flawed at its core and they'd have to completely rewrite it at this point to get it to work. I loved the new lore stuff though, but I think the pics went by too fast.
NoctLuna is a lost cause THERE I SAID IT!!
I was disappointed when fell flat the first round. But I was able to brush by and shrug my shoulders , CAUSE HEY YOU TRIED BUT WHELP WHAT CAN YOU DO.
But now SE comes along and tries to sell me this ship on a silver platter as if it’s gonna convert me like baby Jesus on a Christmas morning.
It’s not. It’s really not.
I’m just tired SE. Like I don’t need to hear Luna cry about Noctis for another 2 minutes. I get it, she loves him. But she’s so much more than that. And we know that you know she is.
Give us some backstory. Give us glimpse at least about her ascension as Oracle. Give us her struggles, her fears, something that DOESN’T revolve around Noctis. Not another whining fest about her childhood crush.
And making Noctis have his cry, that just made matters even more forced. Saying he wished he was with her when she needed him the most, and wanting to say thing he can’t say anymore. Sweetie, you were like eight. And secondly WHAT WAS THE NOTEBOOK FOR??
I want to give this ship a chance but whatever SE is pulling out of their buttcracks has become nothing but a meme.
But yeah lore wise, interesting. Seeing Shiva and Ifrit as a thing as pretty cool. And I’m glad we got a small glimpse of Solheim. At least they’re doing that right.
