Wow, Wuk Lamat is really single-handedly ruining the DT story...

The only place I've seen with an overwhelmingly positive response to DT is Twitter, but how much of it is because the people with larger followings are controlling the narrative there? Twitter is very unfriendly to small accounts, whereas other sites aren't and everyone's opinion can be seen equally.

It doesn't matter, in my opinion, Twitter opinion will be regarded as a majority opinion anyway. That's how many major companies see it. As long as Twitter likes it, it's good because, after all, it's where the face of the company is being seen by the public, not the forum.

FFXIV EN account on X blocked me pre DT for saying Wuk was shit. They are actively going out of their way to ignore any criticism.

Easy for Twitter to appear all sunshine and roses when official FFXIV Twitter blocked me for saying it sucked

Need to vent as well. So. She nods like us, she punches her fist like us, she smiles like us, I can't even see my character's face in cutscene because she's in the foreground, striking heroic poses with her axe. I'm bored when (lvl 99) i should be sobbing uncontrollably over some touching story, I'm skipping, I'm starting to feel unhealthy revulsion towards hrothgals and warriors. My character was tagging along during Koana's family reunion with their new-found relative and... why would he be there at all? It made no sense, it was awkward, it made me reach critical mass. I swear if it was just random cutscene without our silent unjustified presence it'd be bearable. But no, we are always there. Smiling. Nodding. Fray'd laugh his pants off.
I'd take Zenos over her in a heartbeat as someone'd mentioned. I'd take Fandaniel. Imagine I used to think we have too much Alphinaud. Oh my dear boy, I'm so sorry.

And here i am actually liking Wuk Lamat. Thinking she has a good story and not understanding all the hate she gets. She is bright positive sprightly in a world filled with drama and gloom. She brings a positive note.

She has her moment, don't get me wrong, like during the first area of the last zone. But she is quite a linear character overall, like, so little character development, suddenly powerful, and too much screen time, in my opinion. For me, she is about 6/10, pre-Heavensward Alphinaud level of naive.

Looking at steam it has 1398 Reviews 64% are positive, the ones that are negative are met with "this review is funny" or a clown emote, there is most definitely more than 1398 players in this game and not everyone plays on steam. This forum, is quite literally a minority of toxic negativity, someone mentions something positive about the game your "kind" come out of the woodwork like a bad rash.

Honestly I don't get it, it can't be good for your mental health to wallow in all this negativity you're only pulling yourselves into the hole of hatred, whilst simultaneously trying to pull others in with you, just do everyone including yourselves a favour and find something else to do, you'll feel better I promise!

So I can give an honest review or opinion and farm Steam points at the same time? I'll give you my Steam profile so you can keep clowning me. Thanks for feeding my anime-slop point shop addiction while allowing me to pimp my profile like an Itasha.

I can't believe you are using clowns are a metric....

yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaah not gonna lie I thought the whole mentorship/competition arc was fine but Wok's character was basically Naruto without the hard work, Sasuke, or the swing. Like about half way through I started realizing that this really is just filler and it kinda bummed me out and felt like a chore. Her character writing (and voice acting at times) really weren't great. I get letting a new group of people have shots at taking on main roles but I feel like SE needs to have those who have a proven track record have oversight and like any on job training, grow those new talents properly with direction.

"It's totally the negative reviews that have clown overwhelming clown emojis!"
Meanwhile the positive reviews:

They're stupid for using clowns as a metric, but their argument doesn't even work when you can go look yourself right now to see that the positive reviews are clowned out the ass.

63% is also a painfully low score on steam, combined with the fact steam stops you from making a review till you buy the game. It's really hard to review bomb the game in either a positive or negative direction on there when you have to buy at full price.
Compare that to metacritic where people are dropping a "10/10 the story is kinda mid but I like the graphics update and the soundtrack made me cry" to try to defend the game.
