Honestly, this is where XiV peaked, nothing after this expansion ever quite grabbed my attention like this one did. Stormblood just wasn't as exciting or classic.

The jobs felt like they had more skill expression in heavansward. I like stormblood for the jobs it added, but overall stormblood took away more than it added, and the gameplay felt stale afterwards.

nidhogg is a very relatable villain, made the expansion fun to play through just to get face him. Also the soundtrack was absolutely amazing.
