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

I dont think it'd be smart to dramatically change the story at the last minute in development. Of course, that could explain some of the plotholes.

Considering they cut an entire expansion and still tried to tell both expansions worth of story in one, I wouldn't exactly call the writers smart lol

I wouldn't call them stupid, either, just practical and realistic. The complaints some people make on here are very naive/immature, as in expecting a video game series to progress for 5 expansions over 10 years without any continuity issues whatsoever. Having a retcon somewhere along the line is just called normal and human, but some people act as if it's the end of the world.

Frankly, just taking a quick spin through YT and seeing the hundreds of people posting about how much they've enjoyed the game and the story in EW - I'd say the writers must be rather smart indeed.

If the writers were practical or realistic, the story would have been drastically different and probably far better.

It's not a Striker post without a mention of his fake majoritah. The majoritah does seem to be getting smaller though. Apparently now it's only 'hundreds'.

Maybe one day Striker will learn about how the YouTube algorithm works.

Guild it has master the vTuber algorithm with new critical miss series. Is the skill of being ratioed. By power of 2head take will guild take social media world by the storm of laughter. Is the force of the reckoning. They think it memeing but we still dreaming. By epic fail we achieve the greatness. In the name of the Princess Svelte Lana.

If you take all the YT algorithm surfers as face value you would think EW was the most depressing story ever with all those (fake) tears

Can someone explain why G'raha needed to carry an aetheric analyzer? I thought that was what the goggles every scion carries were for.

Something something, the goggles let you observe it. Something something, the aetheric analyzer records it. Something something possible retcon. Something something, weren't you blown away by how cute it was that Catboi Sage Deluxe had to lug around something oh so heavy even though he knows incredibly powerful levitation magic?

To make a comic relief scene, as that seemed to be the only reason. The it made no sense for him not to be using a pack animal to help carry the equipment so the scene just seemed to be there to make him look goofy for comic relief
