Gawd that killed any desire to follow WoW's plot for me.
Also, there must always be a Lich King.
It's kind of a running joke in MMOs. FFXI was a bit better in letting you also be present for big events, but the hero basically always was whatever heroine got featured in the expansion. It wasn't ever about you, the player. It was about you watching them.
XIV spits directly into the eyeball of that, though we've got no idea what the original vision of the arc was going to be.
