As far as Throne of Darkness goes, I think Xeight's was my favorite one, I've grown to like Chrono Assassin quite a bit, and it had a lot of variety with time traveling shaninegans, and Xeven was the only one in the table that was not reduced to a joke at the end of her story, in fact, she ended up cooler than she started, and the reveal that she (probably) is Vath's daughter... yeah, it is one of those times that you look at the Chaos Lords saga and think "Oh yeah, those guys were people...". The one I liked the least was Ziri's... don't get me wrong, Ziri is cool, I like Ziri, I don't like his area, because... look, I can only like memes ironically so much, at some point the cringe starts seeping in, and Ziri's crossed that line LONG before the end, the saving grace was the fact that it was revealed to be all illusions, that Ziri's mind is actually quite childlike and he was just trying to have fun with his idol, the fact it shows the Hero actually gives him an autograph made me smile, honestly... but all that only made me like Ziri himself more, not his area. The other four... eh(in no particular order): Vaden's was fine, I like the DeathKnight asthetic, but I am severely sadened that we didn't get a female version of his armor. Sekt's was confusing to say the least, and I don't think I am a fan of the whole "stable time loop", specially one that involves dying and resurrecting a literally million time. Pax's made me legitimately facepalm with the "Chain Lightning Resurrection" thing... Scarletta's... I am still conflicted about how to feel on that one, I want to say it is a great twist, and I am okay with Scarletta turning out to be ugly, I was expecting it in fact, but I was expecting it more like "Oh, she probably just looks older but in a 'aged gracefully' kind of way, and she is severelly overreacting on how ugly she thinks she is because she has a standard of perfection for herself.", not "OH GOD WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL.".
