I loved the maps and I loved that each one had a central focal point that the story gravitated towards. Endwalker was incredible for different reasons but Shadowbringers was an unbelievable experience.

@curryandbeans @Aywren I agree, Shadowbringer felt like a dream and changed the pace dramatically after Stormblood.

I just started it yesterday! The premise is intriguing

Welcome to Shadowbringers - I hope you enjoy! :D

I started playing in 4.4, so ShB was my first full expansion played on-content. Has it really been 4 years? Jeez…

I can’t imagine how 1.0/2.0 vets must feel by this point lol

So many years of my life… I remember drinking whiskey, playing the 2.0 Beta on my Playstation 3 before I had 3 kids 🥲

It feels like it's been so much longer. A lot has happened in both real life and the game since then.

Shadowbringers was my favorite narrative experience in any game I've ever played. The music, the lore, the characters. I've never cried more in a single day than I did during patch 5.3. It was a really special experience.

Damn. Now I feel old.

It is still my favorite, although Endwalker gives it a run for the money.

While HW has a special place in my heart, SHB will always be one of my favorite expansions, especially post-SHB stuff.
