Endwalker was "meh" (for reasons other than technical issues)

[Endver]

Heres some actual criticism they can improve upon:
-Why was the moon arc so rushed? No sooner do we get there and were defeating Zodiark as if it was nothing. I understand he was incomplete, but there was very little buildup this expansion to the encounter.
-Why did almost none of the Scions react with any more surprise when we defeated Zodiark? All we got was Y'shtola going "Then he is defeated? The ultimate evil? Good job." Thats it I guess.
-Why did the Scions and the people outside who got word of Hydaelyn's death not react more to it? Its like the Sharlayans and Loporrits present were just "Oh that sucks that our God just died. Anyway."
-Why did we just casually teleport to the moon? How did anyone know it was safe? Why did everyone suddenly act like it was a normal occurance?
-Why did the Scions not have a scene reacting to and discussing how you literally went into the past to the early days of Elpis to speak with the Ascians? Its like everyone brushed it off with "Okay cool good we got the info we needed."
-Zenos showing up over and over going "Ready to fight yet? No? Alright dang.." and just walking away.

This. This is my biggest problem with the story of EW. You can't add something to a narration without weighing it. If going to the moon is so easy, if defeating Zodiark, the main and real opponent since ARR is so unimpressive to the characters, if going to the past isn't so amazing, ... then you tell the player that all he did was no big deal. That his feelings about it are too. Maybe it's because I'm not English and can't find the words. But I mean why cultivate so much hype and attention for so many years if it's to minimize everything in the end? Why tell through a nice trailer and then LL from the producer that going to the moon, for example, is indeed something crazy if it's just to say right after that you go in and out just when you want ? At this point, the moon is like another random map. Cool, sure, but not as cool as it should have been.

In general, it felt just like if the hype doesn't have a place. You like Garlemald ? Nice, it's ruin. Be faster next time. You want to see the end of the story for Zodiark and Hydaelyn ? Right, here is two battles, nothing more exotic. You're asking how is it possible to touch the stars ? Well, nice, we worked on a Star Citizen spaceship since a while, go in there and have a nice cutscene that says that the end of the universe is only at one day of travel. I mean ... Here's my point.

To be fair I liked some moments, and every music of Endwalker. I guess Shadowbringers just was more my type of story, tragic, simple but so heavy.
