ethersea s1 ending feels so sudden bc it was kinda like they established some story but didn't give it the time to fully be fleshed out? like benefactor orlean n the drinarr had been there all along but they weren't in the big picture enough after their arcs to feel like suitable threats and even the prophecy with amber and the blink sharks was only brought out up last arc

i think the characters have a lot more potential growth but it just doesn't feel quite like the climatic finales taz usually gives us

#alli says shit #it's kinda unsatisfying #and not to constantly compare naddpod to taz but. even if eldermourne's ending was a lil rushed it felt satisfying still #one bc it felt like the PCs got something they'd wanted from the start even if their stories weren't completely finished #two bc the quest for ireena had been the point for most of their story so it felt right to end with that #n i get ethersea is more open world but then the story being more character driven n ending when it feels right for more of the coriolis #seems like a better choice #hopefully when they come back it'll be a more character driven story rather than feeling like they just get into situations #tbh i feel like i've been really negative abt ethersea and i have been trying to like. talk abt it in a way that doesn't feel rude?#anyone who knows me n legends knows that i feel very strongly abt seemingly wasted potential in stories #and that's the thing! ethersea has all this potential but it feels like it's not being used to its full potential #nothing makes me more upset than the possibility for greatness that misses the mark just enough
