One day I may try to do a proper write-up of my feelings regarding Endwalker's story, one that is more expansive than just "I liked Endwalker by itself, but there are a multitude of problems with it and the way it was handled/directed by Yoshida was incredibly poor, and not something a 10-year story's capstone deserved". Having recently completed it once more on my WoL alt, my exact issues with it are clearer now than when I reexamined it from memory after the initial 'honeymoon phase' wore off from its release.

For now though, I'll just say I'm not really a fan of the story direction having shifted to being style over substance. I don't hate the Scions or dislike the moments of brevity we were given during the story, as some do, but I think overall the story suffered severely from trying to 'wow' the audience with visual spectacles rather than craft an emotional story with proper stakes one would expect from a literal end of the world scenario.
