no no the story is so perfect idk why anyone would hate hearing Alphinaud say to a room of Bozjans, Dalmascans, Domans and Ala Mhigans that "None suffered more than Garlemald" as if Garlemald were not responsible for their own suffering because the second the Emperor dies they start bombing each other.
Or listening to Emet-Selch explain why you were his bestie in a past life, thereby robbing YOUR CHARACTER of agency, and whether or not you find Giga Hitler a likable character or not because you're forced to watch your character look somber over the death of a man who nuked 7 Shards because he cant move on.
No the story is perfect and you hate Ishikawa if you disagree.
