They kind of have their issues, though. They can reuse things a bit too much if they aren't careful; in Stormblood there are a ton of "lovable loser needs your help to discover their hidden talent and save their village" sidequests. The "outcast remnant must deal with their larger, tempered/evil cousins" makes up all but two of the beast tribe quests. And of course, nodding. They are consistently good otherwise, but it must be hard to do the sheer volume of story they do.
