People are saying it wasn't as 'hype' as Shadowbringers, but I think they missed the point. We're not at Ultima Thule to kill anyone. We're there to prove that hope is greater than despair, and that even though the universe is a cold and uncaring place, our actions give it warmth and meaning. And everything, everything worked perfectly from that standpoint, as did who the final boss was. It's not Meteion -- she's 'defeated' before we even embark on the final dungeon, as the fact she turns back into a little blue bird proves. The final enemy is the sum of the universe's sorrow, suicidal ideations, depression and regret and it's incredible how we get to kick it in the fucking face. As a tank, the fact that we got the starring role by LB3ing in this of all duties couldn't make me happier.

AND THEN ZENOS DUDE. Can I say how much I fucking love what they did with him? There's technically three answers you can give him and I appreciate they let people have room to be boring but thematically speaking, why pick anything but the first one? It's so perfect! After denying despair, what else is there to do but live? And that's exactly what Zenos offers us there, genuinely and without catches or threats, a chance to push ourselves to the utmost and celebrate life by going to and beyond our limits. Saving the full version of the final theme for him was truly inspired. I didn't see it coming, and actually lost my shit when I got to mano a mano him. I want an EX of that solo duty so badly now, ughhhhhh

So you love that you're not there to kill anyone but you also love killing Zenos? What?

And again, you do nothing to stop the suicidal ideations of countless alien races. It's insane to me that they all wish for oblivion with no exceptions other than Etheirys.
