5.0 was not surprising we did not get Garlemald since plenty of people predicted in 4.X that 5.0 expansion will be focused completely on the First Shard due to how all the Scions were being Isekai into the First shard.Honestly, I think theres a good chance they could pull a fast one.
In 3.1-3.3 the conflict was all about the Warriors of Darkness and their struggles on the First, which seemed to point to that as our inevitable destination. 4.x was all about Garlemald, which when 5.0 came out was uh… yeah. The 5.x was the most straightforward honestly and even it was mostly about the First and Elidibus until 5.4. Endwalker is definitely the one that could break that trend, as it’s doing so with a lot of the narrative patterns we’ve gotten used to, but I could see the writers being sneaky about things.
