God, every time I see posts arguing about "Stop comparing Miquella to Griffith!" I feel this burning sting because, come the DLC and-- yeah, they kinda did go and turn Miquella into a Griffith.
#{{outofbloodboon}}#Like you've got Guts leaving the Band of the Hawk and Griffith's downward spiral afterward. Radahn not honoring his vow to Miquella.#And dammit I will continue to read Ansbach's attempts of saving Mohg from his enchantment as mirroring Guts trying to save Casca from Femto#BUT THEY TWISTED THE DAGGER AND ADDED SHOU TUCKER INTO THE MIX FOR THE WHOLE NINA/ALEXANDER THING EXCEPT IT'S WITH RADAHN AND MOHG.#And PLEASE do not read this post as me saying 'See? I TOLD you Miquella would be a Griffith!' because by golly that got tiring even for me!#Like I can SEE the comparison but I was also REALLY hoping for a subversion of it.#Like PRESENTING the possibility of Miquella having that option that Griffith had but deciding AGAINST it.#But instead they sort of... Went with the whole 'Miquella is Griffith' approach.#Except I REALLY feel like it was more a dollar store Griffith. Like Griffith had that buildup in Berserk.#Where's Miquella just felt really... Half Assed and kinda forced.#I don't like it and as someone who's been arguing against the Miquella is Griffith approach... Or at least Miquella is FEMPTO...#Boy golly LORD does the storyline for Shadow of the Erdtree really STING because it feels such a humongous disservice toward Miquella.#Hell it kinda feels like a disservice toward Griffith in a sense too.#Anyway rant over!#Sorry!
