I will always be reminded of FFXIV when shit like this comes up
The story stopped being good and the players turned on the games like wild dogs
It doesn't even have to be a constant roller coaster of mind blowing twists, it just has to be passable with a few outstanding moments and they'll love you
Literally all you need to do is write something that people like and they will metaphorically (or even literally) take a bullet for the franchise.
