"Our legacy is built upon the lies of our forefathers"
Quite an intriguing take on authoritarianism and racism through the lens most Dravanians are seen, the way its themes are laid bare so openly and clearly from the very first is just brilliance after enjoying ARR as a base, but not loving it as its own self contained story. Brilliant vibes, the atmosphere permeates every corner of Heavensward, and its music really makes you aware of that: I was in awe at the amount of times "Dragonsong" made an appearance throughout the experience, and really felt like the game at larges' leitmotif. ALSO pretty great character development in Ysayle, Alphinaud, Aymeric, Estinien, (thanks 3.3!) and even Hraesvelgr and the rest of the Dravanians.
Anyway I did not manage to finish the rest of the patches outside of 3.3 because I have been successfully and fully burnt out there is no way I'll be able to push myself any further ATM,,
