Your opinion is valid to yourself, but I am glad you realize few share that opinion with you. The expansion isn't done yet, and while that may not be an excuse to not be critical of what we have currently, it doesn't make it right to write it all off the table.
The post story can indeed feel a bit underwhelming, but I commend them for trying something new. The Hydaelyn and Zodiark story has finally concluded in what I believe was an amazing finale that covered all bases and shed light on every detail, they said they want to keep the upcoming stories shorter- not spanning a base game and 4 expansions like we had now. They are trying something new- knowing FULL WELL that it is difficult to match or even surpass the story we have walked on all this time. And for that I commend them. As for you, you get a big L for even joking about ARR being more compelling.
I also see no mention of DSR
Edit: Also stop hiding behind that whole 'I criticize to make the game better' schpiel. All you did was complain without bringing any suggestions to the table.
