I know I complained about Post-ARR but really after you get past (Hard) Primals and the Crystal Tower Raid. I’ve done it so much is like riding a bike. Unlike Stormblood. No matter how many times I do Stormblood is like riding a bike down extremely rocky terrain...and the terrain is the two Zenos suppose to lose fights, having to run across Ruby Sea before you get diving, the weird placement of the aether quests in Yanxia, the Dotharl camp not having a falcon or aetheryte making it a bit of chore to go out to, the fucking Naadam, the weird placement of most of the Steppe’s aetheryte quests, the second half of all the Ala Mhigo sections, the FUCKING LOCHS, the Lakshmi Post-Stormblood fight, the Sadu fight, the battle in the Ruby Sea, and the janky bouncing between Lochs and Doman Enclave in rapid succession plus the Enclave just automatically slowing down mounts if you haven’t upgrade it yet. And lastly the Elidizenos fight starting with a painfully slow first fight with him via Hien. Stormblood is just a drag to get through everytime, even when it was new to me and new in general. Stormblood is what made me quit FFXIV for WoW Legion’s fel green pastures the first time.
