Concerning this whole Ayra debacle, even after reading Serenes Forest’s article on it and some related Reddit threads, I still don’t understand nor sympathize with everyone’s salt and outrage against IntSys. In fact, I think it’s hilarious. They do this one unexpected thing and suddenly IntSys is the shit-eating scum of the fucking earth, with what they’ve done apparently having some serious underlying implications (which I don’t understand either).
You were all just too quick to assume Ayra would be a free reward, and now that she isn’t, you have to try and roll for her. As if you don’t already do that for the vast majority of other characters in the game. And if you’re mad about having to spend money on orbs just to get Ayra, you do realize that no one is telling you to do so, thus you’re not actually obligated to?
For me, my only gripe is that Ayra wasn’t included in the Genealogy banner with the other three units, but even then I’m personally not all that concerned about rolling for her. If I ended up getting an Eldigan or two, I’d be perfectly fine with that; I could either merge him with the one I already have, or use him as Lunge Fury fodder for Arvis or anyone else.
