If Square Enix has voice actors attributed to these characters, they should use them more! My biggest issue with these quests were that for characters as prominent as the Twelve, it seems incredibly odd to have them voiced during battle, but not in the cutscenes that make up the bulk of the story telling.

We also saw the addition of a brand new PVP mode with Crystalline Conflict, in addition to other features. With Patch 6.1 Newfound Adventure, FFXIV begins a new narrative instead of simply continuing where it left off, a first for the game in its more than ten years of operation. After being one of our top 5 reviews of last year, Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker had a lot to live up to with its first major patch following its release last December.
