(Samefag) The themes are loose enough to not be so on the nose as an American writer does it, and I am not familiar with Jap culture's specifics but if they went on the partisanship vibe and people being divided with eachother that'd be clearly at play in a Hingashi age of blood msq. Even though the age of blood happened centuries ago Yoshida referenced it as being more recent/contemporary (or time travel lol). Climate change is a vibe I've expected, had expected to be more presence in DT.

It's why as much as I like Corvos as a middle-easternaboo I don't want to really see it, that and because Dawntrail has made me skeptical of them doing 'ethnic fantasy' outside of Japanese stuff. But Corvos is so clearly that it's not even funny it's hilarious since it's the homeland of the Garleans, they got kicked out +1000 years ago, they came back and colonized it and yet now with the end of the empire clearly there's going to be a reckoning. Now I'm imagining all the Garlean-ISIS memery shit we could have and I gotta be honest nigga I kinda want it now.
I guess another 'contemporary theme' they could lean on would be the increasing prevalence of wars. What I WISH A nigga would do because with competent geopolitics writing that's clearly what should happen after the threat of Garlemald is gone. Plus ca change la meme chose and all that - the unity of Eorzea starts to stumble, Ilsabard is awash in conflict. It won't, though.
