    I could've done without the lengthy unlock that Orbonne took. I'm sure some folks will appreciate it, but I feel like the actual trigger to getting to the dungeon could've happened waaaaaaaay earlier without all the impotent politicking. Maybe I'm just bitter because I had a limited amount of time today and had to bail on my Orbonne run 90 minutes in (and only at 2nd boss) because the unlock ate so much of my dang time.


    I also really wanted the robot voice in Orbonne to say "How are you gentlemen?"

    Pretty sure that unlock was longer than the 4.5 MSQ lol

    Had to bail on my run. Took forever for people to figure out the first three bosses and even then every party's DPS sucked major balls. FIrst boss was a one shot but it took like 12 minutes or something ridiculous.

    Great raid definitely

    The new squadron dungeons are easy as hell, which is a nice change, but just like level 50 dungeons give shitty exp.

    The voice acting is so on point, especially that second boss.

    Spoiler: show
    She sounds almost identical to JP Agrias from Dissidia, great job


    Disappointed by the conclusion of the Four Lords though, meh.

    I honestly can't fucking believe they couldn't even recolor it or anything. Straight up just a giant Kirin mount.

    I mean a part of me went 'Yeah, that's Kirin'. Hopefully in 6.0 or whenever the fuck they decide to do a Four Lords ultimate they make a powered up form for Koryu/Kirin.

    Honestly surprised it wasn't at least a solo duty instance like with the fight again Soroban in 4.3

    Seiryu normal mode fight was fun and that alone is surprising.

    Yeah, that whole ending to the Koryu storyline and his ingame appearance were incredibly lame. Especially with how cool the other 4 look to just give us a giant Kirin mount is just so stupid lol. Also can't believe we don't even get to fight it, but I'm not sure I'd even want to with its current appearance.

    Wait, was the thing that towers over the 4 gods NOT supposed to be Kirin? I mean... that's the form of Kirin we get in this game. It's not a manticore this time but closer to what an actual kirin is supposed to look like. The one we get as a mount is an aspect of the god itself so of course they look the same.
    If they changed it for dramatic effect people would be crying "muh lore!"

    I mean... sure whatever. But they built this thing up so much that not even getting a solo instance feels like a slap in the face. Everything concluded too quickly and with no real impact other than Genbu's "death" (which was spoiled within seconds).

    If you did the bacon bread quest there's another quest waiting for you inside the Prima Vista. If you haven't done the bacon bread quest do that shit.

    ^ this. Crazy anticlimactic. Probably wasn't worse than the Warring Triad story since that was pretty fucking awful but ending it on such an amazing fizzle... indefensible. MSQ was pretty meh up until the dungeon honestly. Most of the events were foreshadowed so hard that you'd have to be blind deaf and dumb to not have an idea of what to expect. Hoping part 2 is much more interesting. Haven't done Ivalice yet so no idea on that yet.

    tl;dr: Ivalice raid having guest designers really shows.
    Four lords having the typical designers really shows.


    But yeah, hopefully it's because "all hands on deck for 5.0" is the reason.
