    The Story (based on where you are in it) 7/10 ShB was better IMO. Zones over stayed there welcome with a large plot development at the end of each one to keep you engaged.
    The Job Changes 7/10 Class homogenization between tanks and healers still exists. DRK sucks. As controversial I like summoner changes although it needs some changes. MNK needs help. Its mostly positive a lot of meh.
    The Dungeons 8/10 dungeons were mostly solid. Breaking up the levels they unlock would be nice. Good example is the first trial would be nice if it opened after the boring quests you do.
    The Quests: 3/10 There are 5 types of quests. Go talk to x. Go to x destination. Escort X to talk to X. Escort X to X destination and stealth. MSQ is mostly cut scenes you class will go from 80-90 with minimal combat. Easily the worst questing in an expansion yet.
    The New Jobs 5/10 Sage is under powered and Reaper is over powered. Typical job release.
    The Art 6/10 most zones are meh. The moon looks like the moon. Garlemald looks like it does in ShB. Only gets a 6 because the final area is awesome looking.
    The Music 7/10 music is usually good. I cannot stand the music for half the zones in this expansion.

    The expansion makes for an entertaining 30 hour movie. Some of the zones are there to establish a key plot point that does not require an entire quest line through a zone. I wish SE had the courage to do more things with out fear of back lash. An example of this is when Nanamo was poisoned but next expansion due to back lash of the whiners it was just a sleeping potion. Surprise they did what they did with Garlemald and I love the zone for being as dark as it was. Ending is over the top nuts and fun. Sadly the experiences between the hype points in the story were very bland. I have chilled with the scions enough, I do not need a chill session between every zone.

    Also spoiler, Tataru is not killed off so I have to deal with her annoyance still. Yoshi P Please end her.
