The setup for this expansion is very weak.

Heavensward had the betrayal arc.
Stormblood had Ala Mhigo resistance leading into confrontation with Garlemald
Shadowbringers had Graha yanking Scion souls into the first
Endwalker had Fandaniel shenanigans
Dawntrail has.. hunt of random monsters with some random naive character that wants us to rope into political stuff on unrelated continent?
