  1. Honestly… I couldn’t really feel anything after the incident with Thancred. It was just obvious that we, the WoL were not going to let the sacrifices be in vain, and the fact that it really was not the “end” for the other Scions. I found it stupid silly with how it went down with Alphy and Alisae because they just come back a few minutes later lol. However, I was amazed when the music would transition throughout the questline, and I was waiting till the vocals hit. I don’t wish to return… too emotional and I wish to savor that zone when necessary.

  2. Yeah, it still gets me too when I go to Thule.. It's like, I know it's not the literal end of the game (as in shutting down), but damn does that song make me feel like it is.

    When Estinien sacrificed himself, it dawn upon me that everyone will die to make a way for the WoL to face the final boss. After Graha and then Alphinaud and Alisae, I said to myself Yoshi P better bring everyone back or just end 6.0 by sacrificing the WoL to save the world.

    I was delighted when the WoL called back his friends and even happier when he used the teleportation device to send all of them out of harms way. I’ll face the Endsinger myself (with other WoLs) thank you very much. No one needs to die anymore.

  4. Like I was 99% sure every scion would be fine and yet I ended up screaming "NO, DON'T LEAVE ME, I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE" when Alisae and Alphinaud sacrificed themselves. I love two parts of the incremental music. The start where there is nothing but a faint metronome-like beat which is Thancred's sacrifice and the completed song after G'raha's sacrifice. The entire idea of the music incrementing was so fucking good though I miss the original one when we first land in Ultima Thule. The feeling of it being devoid of everything was scary and exciting.

    When G'raha's part came I just sat there frozen as the full theme kicked in. How is this a game? This expansion broke me and touched me in ways I've never felt before, and when the tears flowed I remembered that despite everything in the world I can still feel emotion. This is what we need right now in these uncertain times.

  6. What made this song hit really hard for me was seeing Emet-Selch again, and him being proud of you. Because he truly was never really a "Bad guy".

    But when I was done with the MSQ, what made me actually cry the most, was doing the few side quests of the dragons. Man, those were absolute heartbreaking to do. Each and every individual story that each dragon has, added to it.
