Just Finished The Shadowbringers MSQ, Well Done SE Team!

[Shougun]

Just finished the MSQ of Shadowbringers and.. well done SE! Loved the experience, the story, voice, battle content, music, art, pacing, it was all amazing~! I hope everyone feels proud of their achievements, as they deserve to be.

FFXIV has come so far since 1.0, it's unbelievable. Well freaking done!

I remember Yoshida once saying he was greedy and wanted to push things, struck me in a good way - hope to see the team continue to push and march forward, every year I only solidify my feeling that this group tries very hard and listens, and I love it.

(This greedy comment was said in like ARR times, and his words- no reporting me plz lol, that he felt he was greedy and will like to do a lot of things with FFXIV and that comment stuck with me as part of how they want to carry FFXIV not just to financial success but as a game).

I don't mean to say there can be no issues, that my opinion is the only allowed one for Shadowbringers and you're not allowed to disagree, or whatever, I am not trying to white knight this and say no one can have new desires or complaints (surely people who notice me know most of the time I'm always asking for more more more lol). Though in the specific discussion of ShB my complaints are exceptionally limited and are not important to my overall experience, which to me means it was something exceptional (like Amaro isn't a MSQ mount? Seems weird given past choices and parallels, but honestly I'll live lol).

So you're allowed to feel different and I'm not condemning differing opinions by making this post- it's that I just really wanted to voice my appreciation and say that I felt there was much love, blood, sweat, and tears poured into this expansion and in particularly high quality. To the point I had to take moments in my chair not to stop playing but just to let all that gaming "food" (experience) digest before devouring further. Of course I like the game in general outside of considering Shadowbringers and I've liked FFXIV's other expansions- I play FFXIV over other games because I think on many reasons it's the one to play, but for this expansion I was particularly thinking.. "wow... you guys are working on all cylinders and then some, can this carry on till the end?" and it did carry on.

Cheers and a Realm Reborn to the whole of the FFXIV team! To the team who've worked so hard to carry and raise FFXIV up, new members and great talents added, and to Shadowbringers may it act as wings to carry FFXIV higher into the future .

Just wanted to end the post with this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE9G3ByXKIE
