This was so freaking boring omg

I skiped a cutscene and suddenly the FF4 final boss was on my screen with his music blasting, horror game jumpscare level of events

As much as I like Zero as a character, you can tell they just needed to have some sort of story in the Endwalker patch quest series. Hopefully, Dawntrail will be very good, but XIV could have easily ended here, and have the next mainline entry be an entirely new MMO.
