That’s why I respect how Endwalker‘s dungeons and zones feel like a proper follow-up to what came before. It’s always been a bit strange, then, that the start of most MMO expansions essentially perform a “reset” that suddenly forces you to battle thematically lesser enemies that you’re supposed to believe pose a serious threat to your god slaying player character. Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker’s Dungeons and Zones Feel Like Proper Endgame Contentīy the end of most MMO expansions, you’ve battled gods, saved the universe, and equipped the sacred sweatband of Grok’leThur. It’s a finale that is as epic as it needs to be given the scope of that story so far but is just as much about the emotional investment you have in these characters, this world, and the little moments you’ve experienced along the way.įew developers would ever be bold enough to end a story that many people once said couldn’t possibly be this good, but Endwalker‘s finale leaves you feeling confident that this team is somehow going to find a way to top themselves yet again. While there’s a debate to be had regarding whether or not Endwalker sticks the landing (and we hope to talk more about this game’s story once more people have had a chance to experience it), it’s hard not to be impressed with the fact that Endwalker delivers a proper ending for Final Fantasy 14‘s main story as it has been told until this point. What kind of studio would ever be crazy enough to essentially end that kind of accomplishment? After all, there’s never been an MMORPG that has told a story as captivating as the one that Final Fantasy 14 has been slowly telling for nearly a decade now. You’re not alone if you somehow doubted that Endwalker would actually “end” Final Fantasy 14‘s current story. Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker is Bold Enough to End an MMO Story That’s obviously a pretty big statement, but these are just a few of the ways that Endwalker manages to overcome the shortcomings of too many other MMO expansions while building upon the absolute best that this genre has to offer.
It’s not only the best FF 14 expansion yet, but there’s a strong argument to be made that Endwalker is as good as an MMO expansion has been and can possibly be. While many FF 14 fans certainly trust the game’s developers at this point, we’ve seen too many recent game releases ruin too much goodwill to not at least be aware of the possibility that Endwalker could derail this RPG’s incredible year and remarkable comeback. In a year that saw Final Fantasy 14 steal so much momentum (and so many players) from World of Warcraft, there was a slight amount of trepidation surrounding the release of the MMO’s latest expansion, Endwalker.
