Zepla: Endwalker is the Worst FFXIV Expansion I have played

[Zairava]

Talking about exploratory content as "just Eureka/Bozja" sounds a little disingenuous when considering just how big that kind of content really was. There's really no single instance of content to replace it when so much goes into it. (DRS is still the most fun I've had in this game and it was just one instance inside Bozja).

Restoration was actually something to work towards with every patch too, with no real replacement to it besides IS, which was supposed to be the replacement to exploratory content already.

Ah yeah, resoration. That content is future proof, too. People can always go there and have a secondary way to level crafters if they don't want to do levequests. I don't recall if it's viable for post-80 though.

I actually enjoyed ishgard restoration, a part of me wishes I took my time instead of finishing all of my leveling during stage 1.

Even without the leveling aspect, it has rewards for you to go back and get too, it's easy profit if you have them already as well.
