having just now finished all the main content of endwalker including 6.55 MSQ and the pandemonium and myths of the realm raid series, i think this expansion has been really enjoyable and a great way to cap off the first major story arc. 6.0 in particular was thrilling and cathartic, and pandemonium is some of my favorite raid content (including music) to revisit. the patches were generally good and overall made the core experience better, but the postgame msq (6.1-6.5) was pretty weak and boring to me. very on the nose references to ff4 in a way that felt hamfisted and uninteresting, but we're more than likely getting something cool out of it down the line so we'll see.

6.55 was also super fun and has me completely sold on dawntrail, incredible intro for a character like wuk lamat. i am so ready for da new adventure
