And now our new antagonist is stock anime teen mad scientist #26

I will say though, the drop in quality was EW was apparent for those not blinded by fandom, but they took it too a whole new and impressive level with DT. So, tone deaf, I think is putting it lightly.
You can pretty much summarize the new villains dialogue into one sentence: "Hmmm.. my calculations"

Endwalker was the beginning yes, it destroyed worldbuilding, the balance of the world, the lore partially and hid the destruction in the middle of some neatly packaged emotional moments which I too liked.
DT just blatantly did an "insert FF AND insert "Oh this was a popular thing as a game right? Lets directly insert it into game, but do it horridly." Here's your cowboys from Red Dead Redemption... but with rubber bullets! because we wouldnt want anyone to get hurt! Here's your cyberpunk but with a society of toddlers, here's Tural, that has a magical peace forged by tacos and belief in papas peace, a 5 minute skypecall to Radz At Han to make an Alliance with a nation Vrtra knows NOTHING about, for a dragon cameo without any dialogue. Also have a random GUNDAM, because the devs must've been shaking in their seats to finally unleash their fanboying over it and RAMMED it into the game.
