and there are many more gamers that were thrill for other things to be featured in dlcs, things that people wanted to see since the release of the game.
its literally something that nobody asked for in favor of relevant and canon story.
i can understand for example the aranea's dlc because a lot of people asked for an episode with her / to control her, but that's not the same thing for the alternate focus, 99% didn't even think about it in the first place, it feels random lol

I've always had an extremely low opinion of high heels. That only reinforces it.
On a side note... @Ikkin, @Paperchampion23 and @CloudBuster; I don't think XV's theme of the characters finding triumph through following rather than rejecting divine will need be thrown out the window with the alternate DLCs.
Please remember that this is wild speculation. We'll only know anything for certain when the DLC episodes release.

My theory just needs people to remember two things; the Astrals probably didn't appear ex nihilo (across all versions of Shiva's tale they were sworn or charged with protecting Eos from any threat, hinting at some other will directing them), and the Crystal was created by Eos itself rather than the Astrals. At this point, we should remember one of the classic themes of Final Fantasy; the duality of light and dark, with many of the earliest games
Let's suppose that Eos itself has a will and sentience above even the Astrals. The team may have ended up creating a whole new character which would act as Eos's representative, communing with the characters and acting as a means for players to choose the canon or alt content. If it was sufficiently influenced (if Ardyn, Luna and Noctis chose hypothetical "off-script" paths when offered the choice), it may create a new path which would allow them to fulfill divine will without tragedy. Just a different divine will, the will of the planet itself. Say, for argument's sake, that the Starscourge could be banished from Eos by being permanently contained in another vessel, but not a living thing. Say a Crystal of Darkness, acting like a magical black hole from which no Starscourge could escape.
In my ideal vision of this theory, there would still be a tragic element. Ardyn at least might have to remain as some kind of immortal guardian of this Crystal of Darkness, forever separated from humanity and tied to the darkness the Astrals condemned him for. And Noctis's family would still be tied to protecting the original Crystal, which would act as a counterweight to the new Crystal. Yeah, it all sounds pretty flimsy. But it'd sort of work without completely undermining the canon version's themes.

so how hilarious would it be if Luna's daughter was called Stella
anyway, still not sure if they're going to keep updating the main game, no mention of free updates in the roadmap, and so far nothing of april's update; maybe they just intended to update the main game till PC release (with the exception of collab events and future dlc unlockables)

Yeah, let them call their kids Stella and Noctis Jr that would make great for another 20 dlc or versus xv using versus xiii story line but with brother and sister..!
I have both fear that they might come with something like this and curiosity xD

Perhaps when Episode: Aranea comes out, they could put her in the Character Swap every time she joins our party. What I mainly want from free updates are bug fixes, perhaps a Hard Mode, more weapons if possible, and more lore on Solheim, but that's debate-table, even though there's plenty of it so far. Most of my main priorities for the story of this game on the gaps I wanted filled and delved into were filled/are being filled through Updates/DLCs so far, with a following list.:
Ifrit's Betrayal (Chapter 12 1.16 Update.)
Solheim (Glimpse of Solheim in Chapter 12, and Royal Pack DLC added Omega, a Magitek Armor made by Solheim, as well as adding more lore about Solheim for the Data-Log.)
Revamped Final Battle/Revamped Chapter 14 (Royal Pack DLC.)
Chapter 9's Altissia Invasion (Episode: Ignis.)
World of Ruin (Comrades)
Seeing more of Ravus (Chapter 13 Verse Two and Episode: Ignis.)
Ardyn's Past 2,000 Years Ago (Episode: Ardyn.)
The Fall of The Niflheim Empire (Episode: Aranea.)
Seeing More Of Aranea (Episode: Aranea.)
I know I said the second half was where the game's story fell apart for me, but thanks to the additions they've added in regards to the subjects I have put up above, which I see vital to the story, I'm going to say that the story may end up being complete for me depending on how Ardyn and Aranea's Episodes go, even if we don't get an expanded Cartanica, which I am sad about, but I am willing to see past it as long as Ardyn and Aranea's Episodes are great or decent, and it's been a long road for FFXV, and I am looking forward to it's conclusion.

That would be just as unsatisfying as just making enemies of the Astrals... mostly because it just feels like cheating.
I honestly think that the best thing they can do if they're insistent on creating a "defy the gods" ending would be to reframe the current ending as better than the everyone-lives ending depending on one's perspective. Make Noct and Luna choose between post-death immortality and mortal life in a world that no longer contains the possibility of an afterlife. That way, at least we'd get a good debate out of preferred ending choice instead of it turning into the obvious battle between complaints about retcons vs. crowing about unsupported assumptions being "proven right." >_>;
