Now that Fontaine is out and the story line for Sumeru is done, I wanted to see what everyone thought on Sumeru. My sister and I were talking and noticed more negative opinions as of recent.
Overall I thought the story was mid. I was definitely tired of Nahida by 3.4. Mostly tired since it felt similar to Yae or Ayato whenever we see them. They are 5 steps ahead but for Nahida it felt more like she has a problem, you help her, she figures it out midway through quest but doesn’t say anything then mentions it at the end.
It would’ve been nice if they added the underground map feature earlier as well. I would be running in circles since I have a terrible sense of direction lol.
The last thing I’ve noticed is the issue with making characters one note. It was an issue in Inazuma but has gotten worse as of late.
Want to see what other people like and disliked with Sumeru
I liked the beginning and then the desert and most of the Archon quests but then they released two more desert areas and I was just done with it lol. I don’t dislike the new desert areas but it just felt like too much desert at once.
Aranara quest was super long and locked a lot of exploration behind it.
Definitely enjoying the new scenery in Fontaine and have finished both acts of the new Archon quest already haha.
