    Man, I had so many emotions during this scene. From tremendous fury towards Hermes to utter sadness that everything with Hythodaelus and Emet, all of the bonding we just did, would cease to exist. Elpis was a trip.

      This line along with our WOL trying to reach up to Emet and Emet smiling was all I needed to cry yet another time. Its amazing how this game manages to break you into pieces over just one tiny line of dialog. This tiny line of dialog having so many heavy implications and ramifications you feel the weight of all these thousand years and deaths upon your shoulders.
      The game has so many moments like this, where one tiny piece of dialog makes the story flash before your eyes as you add yet another game changing layer to it all.

    • @tacitidesong
      @tacitidesong Рік тому +1

      It's such a meaningful line, because at this moment he truly doesn't believe the WoL. But perhaps their familiarity, or because of just how crazy that day has been, he's willing to suspend his disbelief and encourage them all the same.

      I think that's actually one of the most poorly written scenes in the game for the reason you like it...
      it's another "and now I must monolgue on how I tricked you while you stare at me doing nothing because I assure you this combat tactic was very smart and cool"
      Feels like the writer is just insecure.
      Not to say it's objectively bad but there is a lot of cringe that comes along with all the good in this game.

TWICE and gripped my arm in fear when he saw you fighting Hydaelyn and taking that tank buster alone when thancred was stunned. AND just about started Crying when those twins disappeared because he was worried you wouldn't make it.
    Future Emet-Selch: I most certainly did NOT start CRYING. I knew for a blatant FACT that they would make it to this point without giving into dispair. I had full trust in their willpower knowing that they would continue so long as their friends souls fought to allow them to!

    Hythlodaeus was my personal favorite for this expansion . And of the ascians in general he's also the most compassionate and pragmatic . He knows how to see both good and evil and the pros and cons of both without being biased . To me he was more worthy of the title "Elidibus" than Themis was .

      I love Hermes as a complex character but he willingly chose to be an antagonist and enable Meteion to cause the Final Days when given the choice to detain her or let her go in Ktisis. He is directly responsible for wiping out half of the Ancient life even if he doesn't remember making that choice. Yes it's not as black and white as "Hermes bad" but to say he did nothing wrong is a bit of a reach. There's a reason there's a whole quest dedicated to asking you where you stand on his actions, they are meant to be morally questionable just like Emet-Selch's and Venat's actions.
