What game have you been playing until now?

The beast tribe before this has rebels with hippo carts learn to be a part of society instead of fight against it and then solve their problems with a goofy cart race that makes the bad elephant people become friendly at the end.

You can't blame Endwalker again either. Previous beast tribe quests have us build a pretty pink pom plaza with the moogles, dragons, and Ishgardians and teach them the value of friendship. One where we make a festival for a bunch of cartoony catfish people. Another where we teach a tribe of Vanu to dance with confidence. A questline where you help a teen snakegirl prove she's capable to her mom by helping build a hotel. And last but not least, one where you fight children's nightmares to unlock gates to a pixie dreamworld playground and help Titania's reincarnation be friends with the other faeries again.

While most of the beast tribe storylines have been "eh", this isn't something suddenly new that's become a problem with Endwalker.
