I did like the final scenes that teased further development. The above screencap crammed almost every single character together for one big selfie, and while it was eyerollingly overdone, it was also kind of a fun moment of celebration as well. I ended up liking her a lot as a leader, far more than I ever did Minfilia, and her voice work was rather well-done.Īnd I’ll give FFXIV this: When you finish an expansion, the game makes a big, big deal out of it. You see her going from headstrong impulsive fighter to wise leader in a measured journey that felt believable. One bright spot of Stormblood was Lyse, who really developed well as a character. I know that we should hate bosses and all that, but this was hate coming from outside of the story itself and more from how the artists portrayed this sleazy uncanny valley weirdo. He made my skin crawl, not as a character but as an existence. I just wanted it over, if nothing else than I never wanted to see Zenos again. Honestly, kind of tedious in parts as you slogged through liberating two separate countries. I was hoping that by the time I wrote my final thoughts on Stormblood 4.0, I would have to eat my former words of being somewhat underwhelmed with the storyline, but… nope. There’s still a good long way to go before I’m caught up with the front-runners, but I’m on track to do so by the time Endwalker releases. And with over a week before the end of the month, I finished that latest milestone. July was all of Heavensward patches while August was all of Stormblood 4.0. My ongoing goal for FFXIV this year has been to finish one significant section of the main story quest every month - either the core expansion quests or the collective patch quests.
