Well that was quick. DLC epilogue defeated.
"Crystal, are you going to complain again?" Yeah dude! Have you not caught on to this pattern yet?
Look, the first wave DLC, I admit my initial negative response was more due to pre-emptive anticipatory backlash. Once it was clear people were (FOR THE MOST PART) gonna be normal about Kieran and Carmine, it was fine. Wave two, I'll admit, I'm anti-Doubles, and feel like the whole set was a lot of new characters and nonsense stalling out the main event that got very little time to actually exist. It's not that it's strictly bad, it's that I think it's just obnoxiously in the way of what I wanted out of it.
Surprise surprise, the epilogue feels very similar to wave 2, but without the payoff at all.
Look, as a cute little story, it's fine. I'm glad we got a bit more friend dynamic out of the Paldea trio. I like how they did the dynamic with Kieran, even if they didn't give him back his initial design that was less stupid. I think the generally goofy approach to what's going on. There's just one problem.
My favorite spends the entire fucking time possessed. Of all the dynamics I was itching for, they remove the character I wanted to see in this dynamic the most from the equation entirely. So yes, I'm coming away from this steaming.
It also just kinda gives me...Delta Episode vibes. Less lore heavy, but you know, just running back and forth from place to place to get snippets and a battle and moving on. It mercifully doesn't go on as long, but I feel like this whole epilogue didn't do a whole lot as a story, and has no real bearing on anything. Like yeah, the friend dynamics and bringing together Kitakami and Paldea was the real focus, and I'm glad we got that. But when that's all you have, it's all the worse that half of the Kitakami group just gets omitted the entire time for a pretty meaningless event. As the capoff to this game, it's...strange. I can't say I expected anything major for it, but I guess I expected...I dunno, something? It just feels so wildly disconnected and borderline pointless. Can't really say this was worth the two week wait, if I'm being honest.
