Endwalker Story Sucks!

[AsunaSha]

Endwalker ruined the game for me. Story sucks!

Yes, same.
Don't be afraid to speak out, your opinion is as valid as the opinion of people who liked it.

Fair comment - but a few lines pertaining to why the OP holds said opinion might have been helpful.

Depressing, makes no sense, and just not fun. I prefer to play a game that is actually fun.

Its actually my second favourites expansion, just behind Shadowbringers. I love its themes of hope and loss, characters like Venat and the story which took us to beautiful zones like Garlemald and the friking moon! Each to their own though, would be boring if we all agreed on what we liked. I do hope the comment about Stormblood is genuine. It may not be perfect but its a lot better then people give it credit for. Think I count it just above Heavensward actually.

I mean, I agree with that statement 100% though it surprises me when people say that because… especially compared to elsewhere, criticising Endwalker seems to be an accepted practise on these forums. Sure many disagree, but there are plenty here who dislike/venomously hate it. Cannot say I have seen anywhere else have people cite the Genocide Convention of genocide to critize the game or a character.

people on twitter very much do the genocide route to criticize a certain character. and they do it a lot to where having a normal opinion about said character gets you told you agree with genocide or something dumb like that. there was also some vitriol from someone about hermes that really i would rather not repeat, but what they said was awkward at best. while the venomously hatred for EW seems to be lower on twitter than here, the hate for venat and hermes is very much higher and in ways i cannot repeat.

So sorry to hear about your disillusionment with the game.

Is this a "I'm going to stop playing" thread, or a "please do better" thread, or the ever popular "I just want to get my 15 minutes of fame" thread?

Personally, I do not look for Great Literature in a video game, but having played through the current story line a few times, I find it no worse than any other expansion, better than <insert favorite expansion here> and the inspiration for the longest thread I've encountered in the past few years (yes, even longer than the complaint about the lack of male Viera) that is now, what, in the 700+ pages for comments. I will admit that I stopped reading that thread around the point the original poster provided their version of Garlean fan fiction as what "should have been the story".

Definitely a "please do better" thread. Something more along the line of Stormblood, which I loved. In fact, I think I will replay Stormblood just to get the bad taste out of my mouth!

Every expansion has so far gone for essentially a very different thing, so yeah, it makes sense that someone who loved Stormblood wasn't a big fan of Endwalker; they're entirely different stories that appeal in different ways.

That doesn't mean Endwalker is bad, and you're not really providing any actual discussion points so I'm not inclined to listen to you any further.

Its funny, considering that general consesnsus in the community is that story-wise Stormblood was the worst out of the four expansions, lol.
