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 only finished the Archon quest line of Sumeru and it’s pretty average, not that the other three regions were any better. I still found myself skipping so much of the dialogue because they felt really boring and dragging. I hope the sidequests are good. Considering the size of the map and how the Archon quest covers only a small portion of it, I’m guessing that’s where the best parts are.

    I’m enjoying Fontaine for now though. Although I think some of the sequences are stupid sometimes, at least I pay a bit more attention to what’s happening.
