People don't understand that a bad experience with media can have a long lasting effect. People still talk about bad movies they saw decades ago, a movie that last around 1hour30minutes to 2 hours and it can leave such a strong, long lasting impresison.
Yet Dawntrail MSQ was 21 hours of cutscenes and another 20-30 hours of boring fucking quests speaking to 3/3 npcs and having to read boring ass dialogue.
It's going imprinted PTSD on a bunch of people who now associate the entire game of FF14 with that bad experience they had with Dawntrail and want nothing more to do with it.
That's the impact of a shit MSQ for a game that marketed itself as the 'story' mmo and yes Wuk is a large part of that shit heap.
