Endwalker was a great mess(SPOILERS)

I spend most of my non gaming time reading, am a millennial, and I still enjoyed the games story.

Also, anyone who uses the word copium unironically obviously can't be taken seriously.

So, if he said "coping mechanism" instead of "copium" then you would take it seriously? Honestly, your post is literally the definition of coping.

LOL. W/e. Apparently having different tastes is coping now. Apparently our opinions aren't valid but yours are because you agree the story is terrible? Talk about bad takes....

?? When did I say that? I mostly enjoyed the story minus a few things. Looks like someones trying to put words in other people's mouths.

He literally said millenials never read or watch movies that aren't anime or super heroes. And we're the ones who are "coping".

The reason I assumed that is because you are agreeing with someone who seems to hate the fact that they are playing this game (I can only imagine their friends enjoy it so they feel forced to be here)

I don't understand. Where in this thread did I say I agreed with him? I'm just pointing out your strange logic about "anyone who uses the word copium unironically obviously can't be taken seriously."

Sigh. Have you ever had a decent conversation with anyone using that word? I certainly haven't.

I mean that isn't even the only reason in the quote that makes it obvious that it shouldn't be taken seriously. Generalizing those horrible "millenials" saying they don't read books or as an entire generation only like manga and marvel comics, don't know what movies are and then referencing squid game for the sole reason it's trending on Netflix was enough to dismiss the post as entirely ridiculous.

I think the user you're starting a fight with responded to the whole "copium" thing because the of hypocrisy of literally parroting a current memeword while acting like current trends in story telling are beneath them. But then it could just be because it's a ridiculous statement all on it's own.

His argument is rough around the edges, almost brash in a way, but I understand his point. There are FFXIV fans out there who don't understand what a good story or good story telling is, and they say this game is pretty much perfect. No, millennials and MCU aren't entirely to blame for that, and there's obviously other factors.

But to disregard his argument because of his attitude and his use of the word "copium" is a coping mechanism in itself. It just seems that the person who dismissed his argument using that reasoning doesn't want to address the reality that this game's story has flaws.
