Fighting Garlemald was absolute shit in this game, same for fighting Ascians, because the whole writing is lazy Mary Sue Gargage, reducing all antagonist to dumb f*cks who do absolutely nothing. Garleans could have killed whole Eorza in a mere hours. Ascians likel, too and easily roflstomp the WoL and even more the ridiculous bad terror psychos which are the Scions. And if it woul be part of the story, that they are the good guys and simply don't do such things, it would fit, but selling them as the bad guys and then just not doing it, because the writers says so = utter, lazy garbage. Garleans got a whole fleet of hypersonic(!) -- just to be clear, that's around 6000+km/h flight speed - which fire mini nuke cannons as they please. You would have ZERO change to fight this as some idiot with a bow or sword, hell not even with a military like our modern ones you would be able to beat this. They would just frush you to dust without sweating. Ascians can telepor at will, can see everything without being seen, can even teleport other - including the WoL - AGAINST the targets will and that many kilometers and got the power to create whole cities with their magic. Yeah, NO CHANCE. The writing of this game is absolutely atrocious and what I mentioned isn't even the worst part, that's just lazy. Worst part is that they take a magical super Hytler who genocided the whole planet, then distorted and tortured all life on it for 10.000 years for absolute ZERO reason as the good one and you willing serve that ultra fascists with a smile. That's disgusting to whitewash absolute extrem fascism like that. Especially from a japanese company, looking at their history of extrem fascism...

I gotta say, everyone involved in the artistic and musical direction of "Part 2" of Dawntrail did such an amazing job of creating such an otherworldly, incredibly oppressive, but also mysterious and inviting world in Alexandria. I was always uneasy and feeling some weird cosmic existential dread in the back half of the game, and I loved every minute of it. Of course, it was the contrast between this and the wonderfully "old world" of the front side that really added to the whiplash. Such a fantastic expansion.
