I didn't pause the video much so you can hear my post-watch thoughts starting from 26:30 Watch my full Dawntrail MSQ VODs here: ruclips.net/p/PLWtbSiTIPVjY9fTosGp9qCCGMKZCp4HRp
I liked Dawntrail and thinks it's a good foundation as well. I agree on a lot of things Jesse Cox said for sure and I''ve always found his takes are very balanced, despite people not agreeing much this time.
-The start was ok. But 2nd half is something thats out of the norm. that should require you to deal with it personally and cautiously, not let some inexperienced person handle it while you are on the sideline waiting it to get worse. -Wuk lamat jumped of power from getting kidnapped few chapters ago to being able to withstand world ending giant robot, to save you, who beat the world ending boss at the edge of the universe is nowhere near believable. the first part of DT should be Wuk lamat. 2nd part should be Yours, with the help of caschiua and krile parents, through eren and krile. Even if wuk lamat joined you fighting otherworld threat. it should be she's there as your team member along with krile and graha, not someone saving you. role wise she should get slapped hard by the boss to show her that her power is not enough. and get healed by graha while protected by krile, and she can't do anything yet to help against unknown threat. while you have to be serious to protect your friends. So that she can learn that she still needs to grow and improve herself, because of the weight of dawnservant role. Or when you fight the boss 1v1 and the boss was losing, the boss try to swarm you with machines, and wuk lamat, krile and graha came to help you fend off the machine while you focus on the boss. Even in the future where you are still the most powerful individual, the enemy can bait you to go somewhere else while they are aiming at your friends instead. To show you that you still can't solve everything by yourself. -Doing Gaia scene too much make the scene cheap. it works in EW. not in DT. And you shouldnt need this in every final boss in every expansion. So you know when there is a scene like this it's something special. -And don't do it mid battle, do it like when fighting hades, with graha and krile. which was done dirty and just passed out with no story to tell. -sack the en localization director. the sound director don't have the expertise to direct and qc audio & va. the choice of keep shoving wuk lamat down your throat till the very end was what make people hate the character. Lyse got her role, but the main fight is still you. in DT theres no you. theres only wuk lamat.
I don't really agree with the idea that WL saves the WoL in the last fight. WoL was just downed for a second which they've recovered from on their own dozens of times. If WL had slipped on a banana peel and broke her neck pre fight the only thing that would have changed is speeen would have just been killed rather than given the chance to change her mind.
@@saviorbob Wuk Lamat comes in, try to fight, got slapped by robo sphene. and get flung to the back. it gave you enough time to get back on your feet. Then Graha and krile appears, fending sphene's follow up attacks, while graha healing WL. WL trying to stand up, limping, while calling sphene out helplessly. sphene memory comes back but doubled down like the current one. You get even more serious because you also need to protect your friends. and in the end after the battle, both sphene and WL can have a talk. that they both want to protect what precious to them, but both of them are weak. the difference is WL got friends that stand together with her. while sphene didn't. she feels jealous but decided to let it go, say farewell while asking WL to help out the remaining citizen after shes gone. WL then walks toward you, realizes her powerlessness so she could strive to be stronger and be a better dawnservant, and to be able to stand together with you next time around. Then some expansion later Wuk Lamat came in stronger than ever before with some new outfit after training arc time skip. my prob with the current one is, wuk lamat never really learn anything, with the power of will, everything went her way. and the growth ends there. stealing your thunder at everyone else including your expense. the scene after the fight, sphene and wuk lamat act like you dont exist, until she gave you the chalice. no one knows whats happened to graha and krile before they woke up. they said nothing. and act as if they know the outcome after they woke up.
