Final Fantasy 14's Yoshi-P says 'if the question is whether I was shocked' by the mixed reception to Dawntrail's story, 'the answer is no, not really' (www.pcgamer.com)

Trying to surpass Endwalker would be a feat. How do you go above flying to the edge of existence and destroying the concept of nihilism? Dawntrail wasn't as grandiose in its story, but overall it was FUN, which is the important part to me. I read an article ago saying this was a better Stormblood which I'd agree with.

Certainly more engaging and cohesive than SB and yeah, we have to walk things back from EW. Overall I liked the story but the first half was a bit anemic. I think it would've benefited from playing up the competition/stakes of the succession some more - a bit more intrigue there.

Definitely think it'll land towards SB where the story is hit or miss for people but the post patch stuff is really good.
