What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

Yet, it is FF1 and FF3 path the FF legacy where no one important dies.
FF7R is also attempting to break what FF7 has done.
Again, you don't need to artificial death to tell an epic story.
People already fed up with such style of story telling, Last of US 2 ring the bell?
Is golf death really that necessary?

To my knowledge though, i dont recall 1 and 3 being the most talked about. But character deaths moving the story starts as early as ff2. FF7 is one of the most talked about ones and it had a very iconic character death that drove the story forward.We dont know where the remake is going truth be told. For all we know they could be giving people false hope and in the end itll turn out exactly how it did before if not worse. FF6's most iconic moment is the world coming to ruin. I dont think its a coincidence that the popular and rated series is the same series that deals an awful lot with death and suffering and again, please tell me then how im expected to take a theme about loss,suffering, and moving on seriously if it never applies to the main cast and in fact, the main cast contradicts said theme and actually gets resurrected. Something even you said earlier ruined WoW. 14 did the very same thing.Personally i think whats artificial is constant death fakeouts and constant fluff in a world ending situation. The world is ending meanwhile im going on a lunch date with people and supposed to laugh because a catboy ate a burger and an elf lady doesnt like pickles? Such tension, such threat. Lets not forget playing dress up with bunnies less than 5 minutes after slaying the god who was the only thing keeping the planet safe.

It's a writing method done in great movies to relieve stress. Unless you want to now start making the argument that Saving Private Ryan is a bad movie because it contained funny humanistic scenes to release stress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJr-4OZPwLk

FF14 did killed off main Scions and there is no need to kill one Scion each expansion just for dramatic effect.
In the history of FF, the only main playable character death is Aerith and even that seems going to be retcon by FF7R.
FF12 has highest feedback among NA players and this story does not requires story to kill off a main playable characters.
There are other examples like FF10 and FF13 with Tidus and Lightening.
You probably should realize it by now only reason Aerith stay dead is only because gaming industry does not have technology of DLC.
The moment they have the ability to make dlc or ep2 they immediately retcon Tidus' death.
