This is probably the first time since I was actually a little kid that an RPG has actually taken me fully by surprise. I was legit in denial about Veronica's death because I was thinking "oh, well they wouldn't kill off your only dedicated black mage, she'll probably pull a Rydia or something and come back as an adult because MAGIC. But as things kept going on I became less and less sure, then the hair cutting happened and they turned Serena into a super mage who inherits all of her abilities. The message about Serena inheriting the abilities hit me harder than all the scenes before - it was a crazy cocktail of emotion, sadness and excitement. I noticed immediately upon getting them in part 1 that their skill boards completed one another but to see them actually make use of that is unbelievable.
I'm BLOWN AWAY. God damn I can't believe a Dragon Quest game just pulled all of that. ---
