I cannot recommend Endwalker to those of us who liked stories like FFIX, FFX, Dragon Age Origins, Elden Ring, so on. This expansion did not respect the game world nor its characters and upended 10 years worth of lore and storytelling to tell a story which fell apart in too many peoples eyes compared to even the likes of Stormblood, which at least didn't push its message in a way that was as badly received as Endwalker's.
Here you go again speaking for "many people"

I loved Elden ring, I got the platinum . I also really liked endwalker.

And I find it hilarious you mention ffx. That game had a ton of silly, cringy moments.
