Quote from truefire;1236181:
Nothing's wrong with it. The people who sincerely liked Shakespeare come from two camps. The first are those who were far more interested in the characters than the bullshit story. The second are those who used C4+'s attempts to 100% vilify Morrighan to validate the doubts that G3 and C3 had set in place ("See? Told you Morrighan was an evil bitch who only wants to drink your blood.")
C4, all of it, was just interested in killing off every last interesting plot point that came up in C1-C3 so that the bullshit that is saga could exist as the world's most soulless story. I've never understood why C2 gets so much hate storywise. It didn't negate any of C1's story, had somewhat of a connection to C3's, and served more as a side story to provide a cooldown after the major events of G3. I liked that it was dropping things to be revisited later.
There are a few things I did not like about C3, but all in all I thought it added some interesting additions to the storyline. Both C2 and C3 might have made me wonder when we would properly revisit some of C1's more prominent plot threads, but they never once attempted to undo them. No, that honor was reserved for C4. Remember everyone. Lughant didn't have some hidden agenda that he was using Cichol for in order to achieve a greater goal than the battle between the gods, as he once suggested when he asked Ruairi if he trusted him, which I remind you only happened after Ruairi started showing doubts when he learned Triona, who was to be sacrificed, was Lughant's daughter. Nope, he was just batshit crazy and wanted to usurp the throne in Tara. Welp, now that we've established him as 'crazy bad guy,' we can just kill him off and never have to worry about that plot thread again, amirite? Excellent storytelling that was. I mean, we got a tsundere princess out of it.
What proof do we actually have that Morgant was really Lugh?
It's safe to assume that Triona was Morgant's daughter but the only one who really said that Morgant was Lugh was Morgant himself. What did he gain from saying he was Lugh might you ask? Ruairi sided with the fomors and joined his cause.
Morgant for all we know is chilling somewhere.
For all we know, Lugh was in Avon for all these years and Morgant is out there sipping martinis on the beach with Cichol.
It wouldn't take much for the new director to go "yeah, he wasn't Lugh, it was a trick Morgant pulled" since logic dictates that anyway.
Also what is Manannan mac Lir, Danu, Lymilark, and Aton Cimeni doing? Are they on that beach with Morgant and Cichol getting white girl wasted?
Though it does seem this new guy is bringing back old stuff. Cichol: Heir to Balor was mentioned around 3 times. Now we see the one eyed giant in shadowed form in that divine knight video near the end escaping from a prison of mostly likely a god light. I wouldn't be surprised if Cichol took up the reigns after one of the big gods that we haven't even seen a single one of captured him. Maybe Lymilark herself binded Balor in the other dimension and binded up with god magic because he's that horrible.
If Morgant comes back with the reasoning I had, if that is Balor, if the bigger gods come into play, and if the Nuadha, Morrighan, and Cichol circle jerk comes back into play, then I think a lot of the story will return back to it's former glory.
Might be fun to have Jabchiel post death come back in spirit form or for a Mores rp against Jabchiel to view that epic encounter. Imagine if Jabchiel after death was held by Cichol and then fused with the soul stream :)
