Endwalker Patches Aren't Filler

In This video I talk about my belief that the Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker patches will matter at some point in the future. I know many people like to say that these patches are filler and don't matter in the grand scheme of things. Although I do understand where these critiques are coming from, I think they are missing the bigger picture of the stories that will be told in the upcoming expansions.
I do think it is completely understandable if you didn't like the patches, I don't think they were perfect either. But I will say that I think many people don't give them the credit they deserve.
And yes I know that I didn't really give my general thoughts on the patches like I said I did in the video, but maybe next time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Also Dawntrail comes out in less than 24 hours!!! I am very excited!!!
