Ok, ok i will stop negative posting now, promise. I don’t want to be that person who just craps on things, especially given how much i love this game really.
I just need a venting outlet and seeing people who also respectfully agree and like to discuss the same problems helps. So if anyone wants to vent or discuss something more critical about the lucanis romance and his story (or something dav related in general) this feel free to dm me but i don’t want to flood a space with bad vibes, im here to have fun.
Going to my positive Lucanis (and general antican crow) brainrot now <3
Name is Esha de Riva, technically my first and second Rook since i copied everything over but changed from rogue to mage. I prefer them as a mage spellblade <3
They mean everything to me ok???
So i finished the game yesterday and i have to admit that i am pretty disappointed with how they handled his romance.
It severely lacks in reactivity from him because it really feels like he doesn’t have a response written in to some of the flirting and just continues talking. He has very short scenes and very few outings as opposed to other characters so it never really feels like there is enough happening in the relationship and the moments he does get are very underwhelming save the end game convos and the “backing away from flirting” scene.
His lock in scene was very awkward I was surprised that was the lock in romance scene at all and after that you get absolutely nothing with him. One coffee scene that is about him and spite that has a minuscule ending thing about you and until the end of the game that’s all you get. Even his combat dialogue stays pretty much the same, the stuff added you can’t even tell are romance specific.
If you don’t romance him or Neve they get together and it feels a lot more fleshed out than when he’s with Rook. I stopped having them together because it genuinely started to piss me off and i felt like i was third wheeling it. Even his fade quest implies his interest in Neve and not Rook and as a player romancing him how am i supposed to be completely fine with that?
(I love Neve and am not bashing on here but it was damn annoying)
Now i love his ending convos but the way you get there is dissatisfying to say the least. I filled in so much with headcanons and I shouldn’t have to.
I have to say even without the romance i think his lack of content does him a great disservice, just comparing how much you can talk with davrin or harding is wild. It feels like outside of him liking coffee and being a professional assassin they didn’t really know what to do with him.
Now i would definitely blame the lay offs for this but the fact that they managed to write out his relationship with Neve AND Bellara makes me feel a bit otherwise. And Mary Kirby has stated that she doesn’t like writing romance but the build up to his character really leads to very little.
This is just my little rant because I really do love the game, and when his scenes are good they are REALLY good, i adore his ending conversations but man, it’s just disappointing and frustrating getting there.
There is so much potential and stuff to work with and they just… did nothing. I’ll headcanon a lot and think of the wigmakers job to compensate i guess.
I don’t like being negative online, there is enough of that going around but i wanted to vent.
Also somebody tweet at mary kirby about this whole ordeal because what the hell happened here 😭
I swear an oath today to be your Lucanis fanart provider. I shall hold true to this promise to the best my neurotic mind and mortal body can provide, to the limits to which they bound me.
May whatever entity you swear to when you hit your elbow on the table corner bless us all.
For the love of all that is holy put SPOILER WARNINGS AND TAGS ON SHIT.
