What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

[aveyond-dreams]

Just finished Endwalker. For me it was by far the worst expansion/story. I thought Shadowbringer was bad, but this was even worse.
Stormblood was my favorite, then Heavensward and ARR was OK. I am so done with this power of friendship crap.

Likewise. While I enjoyed Shadowbringers at the time it was released, the fact that Ishikawa got her foot in the door with a passable story first only to slam us with the atrocity that was Endwalker's writing pretty much retroactively soured me on that expansion and her previous writing. At this point I think Heavensward is my favorite. Oh to see a return to that bygone era even as the people who scream and protest whenever I bring it up suddenly find themselves liking the expansion because it being officially sanctioned as a thing FFXIV fans must like will likely supersede their contrarianism.

Likewise.

...okay yeah, you just proved everyone who calls you an echo-chamber.

Cry me a river why don't you, and I'll bring you the world's smallest violin.

People don't scream and protest, and if anything you often even have people who can agree with your ideas.

Your problem is that you refuse any idea that is different to yours, and believe the game must march to your tune. And worse still, you even engage in the content you yourself deride. You know... like a hypocrite.

Maybe do some introspection before calling people out, dude. It's not that deep. Just like you act like a broken record half the time, so too do people when they point their grievances with you. You'd think you had learned by now why people are against you, but clearly not. Missing the point, as per usual.

You're not the saviour of the game because someone agreed Endwalker was a low point. Several people think so. Otherwise this thread wouldn't exist to begin with.

The power of friendship is literally the central theme of the entirety of FF14.

Endwalking it making the ableist view. It say sad chara is the monster because it is not strong to survive End Game. Now the forum paladin say no friend chara is not strong to survive End Game. It say the psychopath it is the monster. But this is not the fair viewing.

Guild it look up to King Solus. Not all have privilege of have the friend or be the sane. Some chara live alone in the gate community with the feelsbadman thought and the hate like the King Solus. But he use the power of the murder and hating to bring back No Shadow God from dead. You say he bad for sacrifice to blood god Zod but he sacrifice lesser creature like the chara sacrifice the delicious cheesie burger. Is not the animal rite activis like traitor Herman who summon God Meteo.

Have to see other view. What if chara not have the friend. Is not fair to promote power of the friend when not all can have it. It different when shoe on other hand. Now he not monster he is you. He have to live all alone in world with imaginary friend for 12000 year and it turning to dust while Myquote cat dance in the leud Limsa. It make the guild cry at memory.

Is unfair to call chara bad because bad. Should showing the other side and say bad is also good and good is also bad. King Solus he do the good genocide and Venar he do the bad genocide. Must see other view. But the forum paladin it not do this.

NGL, aveyond’s active presence is kind of handy as like. An anti-Bat Signal. “Ah yes, there it is. Time to avoid the thread for a while.” Hey, I could get some housework done instead! \o/
