14 is the gift that keeps on giving at this point
I cannot believe that this is the one people have said is the "worst expansion" for years while saying how amazing Heavensward is. Heavensward isn't bad but I feel like people who say this don't remember how fucking badly paced that expansion is while saying this one has tons of filler. I played through both back to back in the span of 2 months so Heavensward and Stormblood are fresh in my mind.
They are structured the exact same but at least in Stormblood it has the narrative context of "we have to convince these oppressed, defensive people who don't want anything to do with us to join our rebellion war effort." So spending your time in the Ruby Sea or The Azimm Steppe don't feel as pointless even if their stories are easily the weakest part. In Heavensward the interesting main story gets completely sidetracked to spend hours on moogle mountain to help them find their sandwich they left on a rock a few miles away and other stupid bullshit like that. While the cataclysm is about to happen. Sorry Estinien, Aymric and everyone else in the ishgard I gotta go fuck around with goblins for 8 hours I can't possibly go fight nidhogg or talk to hysvelgr the moogles NEED ME.
Stormbloods biggest pace breaker is when Krile gets captured and it seems like we are going to save her but then you have to go fight the snake people's primal for some reason. Thankfully this only take 30 minutes but still very odd that they keep strcuturing their stories like this. I wish they would stop its very annoying. But seeing how ff16 does the same thing i guess i should just accept this is their writing style and that the next 3 expansions will be like that too

Felt like a chore to get thru at the end
But at least the game is still fun beyond the story

ffxiv fans will look you straight in the eyes and tell you "the story gets really good after 500 hours i swear" and they're right
FINAL FANTASY XIV REVIEW
STORMBLOOD
6.0/10
Na minha opinião, Stormblood foi decepcionante, trazendo uma temática tão rica que é o folclore japonês, falha em trazer uma narrativa à altura ao meu ver.
Temos bosses interessantes, Trilhas sonorsa ainda de alto nivel e regiões maravilhosas, mas que se perde com novos personagens que não me apeteceram e na totalidade, perde muitos pontos, se perdendo na quantidade massante de repetições constantes nas suas quests.
Temos uma nova vertente do foco da protagonista nova, que não foi do meu agrado... De fato esperava mais deste personagem e que fosse acrescentar em algo no futuro, o que pra mim não foi correspondido
