They were honest about that and gave you all of those things. Read the rest of that post to see how it ultimately devolves into the usual "well, actually they just wrote a different story than the one I wanted them to write...the nerve of those authors...they must be bad."



And this one takes the cake, from one of our two most prominent you-know-what's. Pretending that this niche opinion in this echo chamber is somehow the general feeling, which is only going to lead to more frustration when it doesn't lead anywhere since it isn't the general feeling. There are hundreds of thousands of active players in this game. There will technically be "a lot" of anything on any topic for pure numbers. But as a portion of the playerbase? Declaring things "issues" just because you personally think they are doesn't make them so. Most people still completely trust the dev team and have a lot of confidence in them. EW knocked it out of the park for them. They already feeling their playing if not the "best" version of FFXIV, then at least a much, much, much more than satisfactory one. Risking alienating all of those people just to please a minuscule minority that creates their own echo chamber would be a horrible business decision.
Don't try to reason with these people man. They just spent over 600 pages on a forum trying to jam their opinion down the throat of others. They don't realize it won't change a thing or maybe they do and that really bothers them. Endwalker was absolutely amazing. I loved every single minute of it. I am in the majority. Most people I have talked to LOVED the expansion story/finale. I have been playing since 1.0. The opinions of others will never change that regardless of how adamant they are or how hard they choose to beat a dead horse.
