I just hope they don't have terrible Big Bads after the conclusion of the Hydaelyn/Zodiark story.

Kind of like Warcraft story kind of took a dive once The Lich King was defeated. You had a villain they had been building up for ages across multiple games, and then when he was finally defeated the next couple of Big Bads felt like random mcguffins to develop Horde / Alliance leaders.

Sort of like Zenos at the start of Stormblood, he's just sort of there.
