So I made a new game with the intent of doing the main quest instead of just ignoring it. I wanted to try it out, see if there had been any changes since the last time I did the main quest over a year ago. To my surprise hardly anything had change at all! What was worse was the fact that I decided made my own kingdom instead of joining a faction and give the banner to their leader. I thought that since I kept the banner for myself it would be easier to convince other clans to join my kingdom, maybe by having an option to "show Dragon Banner" and that will increase the chance of them joining my faction.
But no, instead it just sits in my inventory doing nothing. This is the banner that "whoever wields will rule Calradia" yet it doesn't do anything except made the game more difficult; I can't show it, I can't wield it in battle, it doesn't give any buffs in moral or party size, and you can't even get ***king rid of it. it's just there as wasted potential, totally disconnected from the rest of the story.
Perhaps the banner could have added a dynamic to the game where if you go to Istiana (the Imperial rout) it would make convincing imperial clans easier and cheaper, but also make non-Imperial clans harder and more expensive. The opposite would of course be true if you join Arzagos (the anti-Imperial rout). I just wished TW would start doing something about the main quest.
