I really wish that, when creators of multi-part stories decided to make new additions, they would look at what aspects of their world or story overall haven't been explored yet or if there are interesting possibilities/questions raised that could be examined. As opposed to ya know... pulling totally unrelated shit out of their asses.

It doesn't just feel forced--it's frustrating for audiences who are invested and curious about the world/characters. It feels like the source creator cares less about the work than the fans do at some point.

#Final Fantasy XIV is overflowing with examples of this and some of the times answers were given were to go 'shut up'#like DON'T BE CURIOUS ABOUT THE TWELVE THEY WERE VENAT'S FOLLOWERS AND FUCKING BORING AND WILL NEVER APPEAR AGAIN #Why the hell would you do that????#Also though like Legend of Zelda they did what amounts to a confusing AU with BotW/TotK in terms of continuity #And I'm like. Hey you've been talking about the Gerudo always choosing their once-a-century male as king #Has there ever been a king who wasn't Ganondorf and/or evil?#Did a Gerudo king ever also have a Gerudo consort? When it isn't Ganondorf what does that look like?#D&D shit can we see more neutral-aligned interplanar beings on par with celestials and fiends?#Can people pact with them????#Just ffs please be curious about your own crap people oh my god
