It does get good at the climax of the base game, A Realm Reborn, when Rauban loses control. That's what hooked me. There are other great moments and plots along the way through the whole game . But for the overall best time, it's the 3rd expansion, Shadow Bringers, that's a masterpiece all the way through. That's some of the best Final Fantasy I've ever played from Squaresoft or SquareEnix.
Dawntrail, I can't recommend. I can't get into it.
Rauban was so fun. I was like "yes, where was this hours ago?" I recently fell off somewhere post shadow bringers. I dunno, it really does start feeling slow there to me
It does slow down after that. Eventually, it picks back up during Endwalker and that does really well on it's own, but in the shadow of Shadowbringers it's hard to measure up. Endwalker would be my second favorite expansion. Even post-EW was good. But then it drops like a rock for Dawntrail. That's my least favorite of the entire series. Maybe they've turned it around, idk. But I quit in the post-DT around one of the quests that just says "Speak to Wuk Lamat" AGAIN and I just don't know why we're still hanging out with that loser who falls into success.
Shadowbringers was a treat most of the way through, very unique and the constant feeling of dread was great. Except the trolley part, I spent weeks stalled on the story at that bit. Amaurot was worth it though.
