A very simple thread.
Which FFXIV product is your favourite so far? I'll add the original FFXIV and A Realm Reborn too just in case people prefer them.
When explaining your reasons, please use spoiler tags where appropriate. Many people (myself included) have yet to catch up with the story.

Myself?
I've not long finished Heavensward and now thanks to lovely people at Christmas I now have Stormblood and Shadowbringers.
I'm currently storming through Stormblood. At least I intended to just rush through it until I very quickly realised that the game deserves a lot better. A good number of people had told me that Stormblood is a rubbish expansion and I was really planning on finishing it up ASAP in order to reach Shadowbringers (which is highly acclaimed). To tell the truth, I am absolutely engrossed in it. It has far exceeded my low expectations. My guess is that it only suffered because it was sandwiched between two extraordinarily strong expansions (Heavensward and Shadowbringers). Nobody expected Heavensward to be that good, so the bar was most definitely raised.
And Heavensward is a beautiful game with some stunning settings. It has a strong story which presents a tragic moral dilemma. It contains heartbreak, but also hope. It has some outstanding music as well. Basically all of the ingredients of a great Final Fantasy game.
My favourite expansion and FFXIV storyline so far has to be Heavensward, followed by Stormblood. I confess that I have forgotten most of the story for A Realm Reborn now aside from the patches.
How about yourselves?
