It's becoming clear as day that A Realm Reborn is merely a very long prologue signaling much greater things to come, the patches keep getting better and better with each one.

Ramuh was the best part of this, but man this patch was boring and there was just too much going on in the plot.
I don't have much to say besides it was pretty boring and tedious and made me just not want to play. The story was pretty alright with the unification and such but man the quests are horrid. I hope the next questline is better.
The setup for what’s to come is here, but in the moment the main story feels very all over the place.

I have to agree with a few reviewers on here about this one. Patch 2.3 seems incredibly unfocused, to the point that I felt like I was playing through pieces of three different patches in one. The first half was especially uneventful and pretty boring. But once I got to the Ramuh fight (my favorite trial so far), things really picked up.
And can we talk about the Sultana's sudden breakdown? I don't think I've ever been as quick to shed tears as I did with this scene. And when she hugged Raubahn... ohh my heart! I literally want to see Teledji dead now. If not for treason, but just for making the cute Lalafell cry!
This patch would be the best so far if it was more consistent. As it stands though, the second half is at the very least interesting and offers the best chunk of story in these post-ARR patches so far (except for the lame recruiting mission).
