Not to mention Meteion who was shoehorned. Sorry, I did not care about Hermes' love doll going evil or how Zenos had fook all to do with anything. I hope he's gone for good.

I'd say from best to worst in story expansions:
SHB > HW > SB > EW > ARR.
SB was saved for me because Doma/Steppes were actually a really good arcs. To hell with Ala Mhigo lol.
I actually enjoyed Garlemald. As far as the moon goes...I definitely thought we got there way too easy, but seeing all the souls aimlessly wandering was sad to see. Then it felt like you blinked and we were fighting Zodiark. The pacing after this just didn't make sense to me.

For story I actually put HW slightly over Shb so my story list would be HW > SHB > EW > SB > ARR but for gameplay I'd have to say I had the most fun in Stormblood; I greatly enjoyed Omega, the trials and the Ivalice Raids and had some of the best times I've ever had in this game during that time.
