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

[KizuyaKatogami]

If you have played the original Japanese version and you can see she is very out of character there.
The entire "she need to die to join life stream in order to counter Meteor" is just an aftermath made up story because gaming industry do not have DLC technology yet.
Ancient in the original Japanese text clearly indicating they have ability connect to life stream without death.



Yet, every complaint is showing they want an epic end fight with Zodiac (big evil dude) and Scion death (one of key character death)
It is same poor WoW style of storytelling copy and paste into their expansion.



Yet through out entire FF franchise none of the main cast is killed off except Aerith's artificial death (FF7R is retcon her death)
FF12 has highest review among NA community and it does not need to kill one of their main cast isn't it?
FF10 retcon Tidus's death and not to mention to entire FF13 series with Lightening.
You don't need artificial death to tell a good story.




Is it?
WoW's story telling has been bad since TBC and only was ignored by fanboys because Blizzard was at their peak.
There are countless complaints over the lore in past years.

Just as theres been complaints with 14’s lore for the past years. One of the things you literally bashed WoW’s story for is something 14 did this very expansion, so why the double standard? As for main cast, you seem to have forgotten a main cast member that dies in ff5. Or in FF4. Or in FF type 0. Or in FF15. Just to name a few. FF12 opens up with two fairly prominent character deaths that are what moves the story forward. Not to mention they do actually kill off 2 characters who join your party for a time. It’s really not a good idea to try to use past ff’s as examples because most of them take risks that 14 just doesn’t at all. I’ve played all of them, i know how they work. I know what happens in them. Hence why i can tell you death and consequences and destruction is a very clear staple among them.Its not so much asking for a scion death every expansion as it is to have stakes and consequences in the story. We were literally facing an apocalypse that not even ancient god-like beings survived. The planet got decimated. Yet we end up literally perfectly fine. Same goes for ShB where we fight against said god-like beings and only win the first fight due to plot armor and an asspull. That does not make a good story. All of the other ff games ive mentioned with actual deaths and consequences show correctly that no matter if youre the hero or not, youre not invincible. You're not going to always win. 14 has been lately, we always win. We can do no wrong, everything goes our way no matter what. Them creating a few nameless npcs just to be killed off doesnt change that. Not to mention that was literally at the most in two areas. While thavnair and garlemald are suffering we're having a lunch date.
