What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

Not much, just a general overview of what's to come in 6.2. Hopefully more details of what Island Sanctuary is.

Nothing. Somehow, I still expect to be let down.

More seriously:
-Golbez
-Scarmiglione as the 6.2 Trial boss
-Zenos's avatar
-Island Sanctuary being the "Minion Farm" they alluded to back in Shadowbringers Q&As/Live Letters/whatever.
-An unsurprising dearth of Garlemald in gameplay footage/screenshots, or indeed any Endwalker zone except Thavnair and Collegetopia
-Oh right, 6.2 is also an 8-man raid patch, so they have to show something from Pandaemonium. Probably the first two boss designs, then.
-We might get a comment from Yoshi-P saying how surprised he is that players have taken a liking to Themis and Erichthonius, since they're scary Ancients
-Acknowledgement of the Mt. Everest of feedback they've received regarding Hrothgar's additional hairs/ear removal, and a reminder that game development is hard (we know)
-Acknowledgement of the Olympus Mons of feedback they've received regarding the 6.1 changes to Samurai, and a reminder that game development is hard (we know)
-Criterion Dungeons have been delayed to 6.3, and an apology for the inconvenience. Not a word of what Criterion Dungeons will actually be. (Seriously, what are they?)

Expecting them to tie to the relic, somehow. It's the one thing that didn't come up as its own entry and, if they follow SHB, .25 would be around the point it'd come out, so it'd tie in chronologically, if nothing else. Yoshi had mentioned during an interview to wanting to look into addressing the desire for smaller scale challenging content in the run up to EW, and this may be what it is, but in light of everything EW so far, I am going in with very minimal expectations.

I'm just hoping for something as funny as the 2b hair. I need a good laugh, lol.

Honestly? Not a whole lot, some job adjustments for PVP and a merchandise plug for a FFXIV-themed tuba at the very end.
