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

I mean see you here in 6 months when you're still correlating people's views on FFXIV with "excusing genocide" while simultaneously claiming you are not pushing weird, personal moral agendas over a video game. The lack of self awareness is incredible. I must have really a nerve. I don't think everyone is wrong, I just don't agree with everything I read. I've never been kicked out of anywhere and I have had normal conversations in this thread, just not any with you. And I will have a great time because I actually think it's interesting to hear other perspectives. I think the Elpis visit is an alternate timeline, it's not that big of a deal. And yes I think part of why it is alternate is because we already existed there. It's a shame you are ignoring because I'd be really curious to know why SHB/post SHB hinted this so heavily and why you think they didn't show Azem before the arc ended.

Also I didn't launch any ad hominem at you-- at least nothing on the scale of questioning your mental health and imply you have a personality disorder. I said your signature gives an indicator of your perception and it does-- what do you mean when is the last time you enjoyed the forums? The only time I don't enjoy them is when I meet people like you, who interpret differing opinions as censorship. Censorship is asking people not to say anything and not post, I hope that helps. I don't even regard terms like "reductive" as insulting, maybe that's where a disconnect exists between us. You perceive it as a aggression when it's not. I just feel like expecting bulletproof consistency across a 10 year long MMORPG with the insane level of quests XIV has (between MSQ, beast tribe, side quests, raids, etc) is unrealistic. It isn't like "woops things don't make sense sometimes give up all reasonable expectations for story quality".
