Thread: Endwalker is the lowest point of this game since 1.0

Glad I am not the only one who thinks that haha! Yeah it very much feels like it had different writers almost, who did not want to continue what was already built and decided to just throw it away before doing their own thing.

Final Fantasy XIV is not a Netflix show. It’s a video game. At this point I’m only subscribed to make adult content and annoy people. It’s not a good video game at this point. The story was pretty banger, but not worth a monthly sub after it’s done.

I mean the fact I am still here subscribing to the game kinda shows I am still enjoying the gameplay! Mostly casual, but Pandemonium has alot of fun bosses, and is my favourite Raid story so far. The Alliance Raid about the Twelve started off strong, but the second was a bit of a downgrade I admit. I am still not sure about its plot, waiting to see how they conclude it to decide. Yes I talk alot about the story, but it is my favourite aspect of the game haha. Have been enjoying it I adore Reaper, its become my main this Expansion. Not a fan of all the job changes, and I am one of those few who prefer older SMN, but still mostly enjoying them. I do wish we had a Bozja-like zone, but I can kinda understand why they wanted to take a break from that approach. That said I wish they had done something more then just ‘collect totems’ perhaps look back at how HW did its Relic weapon. I like the Varient Dunegons, even if the rewards system is poor. Hopefully its something they can build off, as I like more solo hard content. Oh and very much enjoy the Island Sanctuary, hope its something they continue in 7.0 and beyond and do not forget about.
