Of all Final Fantasy worlds, Ivalice is certainly the one with the most material to draw from, bar FFXI's Vana'diel. Now that Endwalker is done we can only hope that Maehiro, Matsuno, and other writers who worked on Ivalice games make a comeback for 7.0. The fact that they attempted to wrap up the Ivalice plotline via field notes is something that I still find unacceptable to this day.

The Return to Ivalice raids could have definitely done a better job of introducing the lore to the player, but I still find it hard to believe that the story of Bozja was apparently so unpopular that it warranted such a hasty conclusion. Whether they obtained such feedback from Final Fantasy fans who came here for a rich world and story or those who endlessly like and retweet pictures of the scions without being very invested in FFXIV's actual world remains a mystery.
