We didn't need to have a multi-world ending threat dropped on us at level ninety-effing-five. They took FIVE LEVELS before they threw out everything, and went "Suddenly, the fire nation attacked."

The story didn't fail because it didn't have buildup. The story failed because the F-Tier writing team couldn't be assed to build up.
Like Endwalker, it really needed to be 2 different expansions instead of one.
