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

*Checks metacritic*

GoT season 8: 4.1

Endwalker: 9.1

I have to wonder, do you ever just think to yourselves "You know what? I'm in the minority here. The majority of players really loved this, and I didn't."? Because at least then I could sympathize with people hating Endwalker. I can see how people would hate it. I disliked some parts of it. Comparing it to Season 8 of GoT however, which was almost universally criticized for rushing to finish the story is just being disingenuous.

YOU didn't like it. From really any metric you can take however, most FFXIV players did.

*audible snoring*

The worst part is that, literal seconds before posting, I removed portions of my post where I made clear that I was only talking about my peer's opinions because I wanted to keep it short. I thought "surely it will be obvious from context alone?".

Or maybe the worst part is that Teraq called people like you out 2 hours ago and you didn't even notice.

EDIT: So let's be clear. When I make the comparison with Game of Thrones Season 8 I'm not talking about the general critical reception of the story but why people (and by that I mean Endwalker's detractors, users from this thread or from elsewhere who showed disatisfaction at how the story was resolved [see how convoluted my post is, now? As a non-english speaker, this is painful to write]) felt so passionate about a story they now hate, to the point of debating about it more than a year later, not unlike r/freefolk users.
