Endwalker vs shadowbringers story, which did you enjoy more and why? (spoilers)

[TheMightyMollusk]

Please don't turn this into another Endwalker rage thread, we have a containment thread for that exact purpose already.

Anyway, Shadowbringers.

You're about sixteen pages too late for that, unfortunately.

It's like "if you like Endwalker you're a monster or a loser". Also I'm not clicking through sixteen pages, I have that shrunk down to six.

Where in this thread has anyone even implied that?

There was a post earlier that was demonizing people who liked Endwalker. Can't seem to find it, mods either deleted it or I don't care enough.

I cannot judge Endwalker yet till it is completed. But, the lack of Dulia Chai makes me vote for ShB at this point. out of the expansions, I still believe I enjoyed Stormblood the most though.

found it. Like just because people like what they don't means they're lesser human beings.

At least it’s only one person at the end of the day. Unfortunately stuff like this is a problem with both sides. It seems people in this community can’t handle other peoples opinions and just attack them for it, case in point.

“It's always interesting seeing the forums' take on characters.

Amaurotians: 'You sacrificed 75% of our population to a supreme deity, and now you want to sacrifice the rest of life on the planet to it? My life is a chip in your pile, ante up!'
Forums: 'Aww. Can we not save them, though?'

Emet: 'Let's trigger extinction level events in each of the star's reflections to free a supreme deity that we can sacrifice the remainder of these inferior beings to!'
Forums: 'Aww. Did he really have to die, though?'

Venat: 'I'll hold off this idiotic creation for a few millennia to buy time for the buns to invent space travel and for you to stop the Final Days (or run away and start a new life on another Aether dense planet, if you so choose). Good luck!'
Forums:
'Mary Sue!'
'Villain!'
'Why do you believe some random person who claims to be from the future anyways?'
'Why didn't you tell those geniuses on the Convocation the information you got from said random person who claims to be from the future?'
'Why did you have to be mean to Zodiark? Couldn't he save us from bird girl after he was fed the souls of all life on the planet?'
'Why did you have to take away everyone's god powers?'

Honestly, if I'd encountered opinions like that I would have sundered everything as well. Half of an INT score of zero is still zero.”

It's not too hard to see where you get that impression from. Voicing a contradictory opinion gets you dogpiled by the eight or so people treating these threads as their private discord. It's why they're largely irrelevant as 'feedback threads'.

[Lauront]

At least there is no downvote function here consigning dissenting opinions to oblivion, like reddit - nonetheless, reddit is a venue the developers draw upon for feedback. But the above also describes what the lore forum was like for years, when fans of the antagonists were called all sorts of names, such as "genocide apologists" etc. I recall very few dissenting voices at the time asking for that to be put to an end. Also, less of the attempted gatekeeping at what feedback is or isn't, eh?
