I made it to nearly the endgame of HW, Stormblood was coming up, and then I lost my life. Had to sell my PC. It was a painful period. Regardless, I came back about a year ago, and found my FC had died, and a far vaster, emptier, lonelier game awaited me. The benefit was, for several months, I had not commitment, or obligations, I just got to do whatever I wanted, with no negative side here. Very recently, I made it into a new FC, small and spunky, and I'm just playing the game at my own pace. Leveling healers, one DPS, and a lot of the crafter/gatherer classes. I'm not rushing. I just want to have fun. But I like listening to these opinions.

I come back often just to see Endy's reaction to Elidibus

The lyrics, once you realize they’re from Ardbert’s perspective, mauls your heart and leaves it rent to pieces.

PvP Battle Royale and add it to daily roulette. We also need rankings and leaderboards for Battle Royale and Frontlines (count the wins and KDA).

Well, since the purpose here is to look forward...I have a theory. To use the key you must possess the Echo. That's why in ancient times the Milala leader(a spiritual leader btw) was successful opening a portal to escape the ice. She had the Echo. When they tried to do it to get away from the lightning...no one had the Echo, so they couldn't. But Sphene was successful using the key. So, I'm thinking one of the souls sitting in that nice big crown of hers possesses the Echo. Also, I believe the key was originally conceived by Azem, but in the possession of Emet-Selch so he could travel to Azem at a moment's notice for whatever reason. Since Emet-Selch escaped the sundering, perhaps the key was in his possession and also escaped the sundering (IOW...it's whole...and operational as a result). Carry on.😄

Those flashes in the last part are the rejoinings that weakened her

a little anecdote from me regarding differences in story between wow and ff14: do you remember in wows dragonflight where we fight against the forces of the magma dragon dude (forgot his name lol) and suddenly portals open everywhere and all your old friends come to aid you in the battle? i felt NOTHING at this moment because the expansions are so separated from one another that you havent seen some of the characters in some years or they played just minor parts... it did literally nothing for me and it was basically the big finale of the whole story arc... now imagine they did something similar in ff14 (im glad they didnt because it wouldnt have made any sense restrospect, but still), where all of a sudden hien, aymeric, raubahn, edmont, the garlond bros etc etc (maybe tataru in her world-devourer form) came all flying in airships to rescue the scions from near defeat and in a combined effort you slay the big evil. that would have been super epic because ff14's story is just thought through and most characters are important and were given time to grow in the story... a thing that wow has lost over the years, which makes me really sad...

NGL, doing SHB as a Male Midlander really hits different.

1:53:30 You're always looking for the next adventure, the next boss fight, the next challenge. And once you have it, it will not satisfy you for long until you're ready for the next one. Zenos is literally talking to the player as a player. Most especially the hardcore peeps that always want harder Ultimates.

What disappointed me a lot about DT was about how short Krile's story arc was. And it wasn't even just about her and her parent's but the whole history of the milalafells too. I was really hoping they could've shown more about her because for me, she's more important than Erenville. Yes, I am one of those few who's not really attached to him that much. Krile has been with us since HW and she still have her own spotlight. I thought we were going to know her parents more because they had a huge role in bringin us to Living Memory. I was emotional during those short cutscene of her parents bringin her to the source.

1:01:32 this reminds me of Elidibus’ scene post Pandaemonium where he foreshadows the future of the star. PLEASE MAKE IT TRUE YOSHI P PLSSS

Everyone always claims the story is bad in Realm Reborn but I loved it. The stylistic dialog is just fun to read. I can't think of any storyline from FFXIV that I dislike.

16:20 "Menu for the next ten years" Nope, we visited each of them aside from two and they were basically all just one-off dungeons. Lame.

Interesting thing about Emet-Selch's "legacy" line: in Japanese, he is referring to his future self, which makes a lot more sense when you think about it. And I found myself thinking the same thing as you: Meteion deserved so much better than what she became. In particular our Elpis Meteion who wanted none of it and fought against it, but also all of the Meteia who suffered because of Hermes' lack of foresight. The way Venat's line on the boat was spoken, upon first seeing it I simply thought this was going to be about something concerning Azem from her time, ie the past. Could never have anticipated time travel would be brought into play.

When the scene with Elidibus happened, I also thought that Elpis would be some kind of instanced area where we would only spend a short time; definitely never anticipated that it would be a whole map that we would effectively be spending two days in. And when we got to Ktisis, I thought surely they wouldn't give us a dungeon with ancient Trusts, but they did!

Will you update this with his new lore?

I just want to say that you have great positive energy, you were a lot of fun to watch! I guess I'm one of those weird ones who was never irritated by Alphinaud, but I attribute it to the Japanese voice acting personally. It was always easy to see that he was a responsible kid who was doing his best and accomplishing a lot in the process, even back in ARR. Not to say that his personality wasn't a bit stiffer, but that didn't bother me. If anything, I was relieved to have him after the raid on the Waking Sands left me feeling alone and terrified for the future of the Scions. Compared to Cid, he was a steadier presence. Also, after the fake-out, the Endsinger's attacks become frenzied, erratic, and desperate. You'll notice that the look on her face changes too, and her words become about the pain they all experienced from what they encountered. In Japanese, in that final cutscene of the trial as she's dying, the Endsinger's voice even become the Elpis Meteion's voice with her last few words. I'm not the type to cry much either btw; most emotional moments before Shadowbringers have wet my eyes a bit but nothing to make me outright cry and sob. Shadowbringers made me cry at least twice though, and Endwalker even more, at least four times. Overall Endwalker remains my favorite of the two if only because it makes Shadowbringers better. It also feels like a more relatable story of hope and despair. Both were amazing though!

51:53 ARR MSQ questline on La Noscea (Volcanic Island) where we Literally save the Bacchus grape used for making the 'best wine ever made' from going extinct :P

im so glad I wasn't the only one who thought sareel ja was gonna be manipulating zoraal ja....rip in pieces dude you were the cooler villain

I am 100% convinced that Sareel Ja is an ascian. The behavior, the way he mentions how old he is, and the red face paint across the top of his face just scream ascian

2nd half should have been patch-content for sure. The first half seemed so short.

🗣azemgers azemble!

the way the song whispers "one brings shadow one brings light" right at that moment is perfect, gets me every time.

YOU NEVER EAT THE TACOS!!!!!

Loved the overall story, but there are glaring flaws in how it's told which feel terribly out of place with what we had before. It felt in some spots like they changed up things last minute. In particular the story we got with Bakool Ja Ja was like, something here does not feel like it fits. And Zoraal Ja felt even worse. Sphene however I fully understood and worked for me.

I see jesse and endy really focus on sphene and her crown, if you remember sphene's crown is also a unique memory storage and we don't know the full function of it yet. However i think going forward the story is going to heavily deal with the concept of loss/reincarnation/souls. As Azem and many other of the convocation can reincarnate with what we seen of loghrif(gaia) and fandaniel, the concept of dealing with loss after we've dealt with despair because there needs to be a road to move on, and the fact are souls memories truly wiped after aetherial sea like solution 9's process that we've been painstakingly showed in minute detail, or is there memories etched onto the souls that cannot be dispelled like gaia's? what does that mean for the 13th where memories are gone even if you cannot die? These are very irl philosophical musings for thousands of years as ffxiv likes to tackle these grounded elements such as a fall of theocracy like ishgard. ultimately if sphene's memories are etched onto the crown but the soul has been reincarnated... imagine what they could do with an actual garnet that's reincarnation of sphene, and the crown acts like a memory restoration like mitron was for gaia. I think we are about to dive into some very deeply uncomfortable but meaningful territories in terms of story writing, and don't forget elidibus mysterious ending scene. side note living memory felt like the farplane of FFX, not the same but similar dynamic of the living being able to interact with the dead in a way, remember in side quests they said the living used to also lived with the living memories in the golden city.

This was so entertaining and I love how it made suggestions on how things could have been handled differently!

my wild theory: original Sphene was a reflection of Azem and was aetherically the only able person in that reflection to operate the dimension travel crystal. For this reason her soul/memory was preserved. It was stated that preservation was working on controlling the crystal, what better way than making a program/artifical human interface'?

5:39 "Give it a minute."

I been thinking for awhile on how DT should be "fix". Of course not rewritten the whole thing, the story still need to largely hit the same beat. And I came to the conclusion that Wuk Lamat's and Zoraal Ja's personality should be switched and Almost anything else can stay the same. We still be helping Wuk to be Dawnservant, but not on her behest initially this time. Instead, Erenville will be the one to request us helping her to increase the odd of Zoraal Ja not taking the throne. The journey will be about self-discovery for Wuk to help her love herself and her nation. Erenville can also be her mouthpiece early on and increase his screen time with us. As for Zoraal Ja. If we give him Wuk's personality then he is pretty much Sphene, invading other lands for resources and all.

I'm just remembering now, Krile is originally from the 9th Reflection. So who is Source Krile? Have we met them? Do they exist? I feel like if Krile were to merge with her Source counterpart, the Source version might take precedent and we would lose the Krile we know. The only thing I can think of is that Source Krile died sometime in the 20 years that our Krile has been on the Source, and instead of reincarnating, Source Krile was just slowly over time pulled in by the Krile we know, and they merged unknowingly where the living person took precedent and became the primary personality.

I've heard a theory where preservation could have been garland ironworks from the timeline where the 8th umbral calamity happens

I’m still entirely invested in the theory that we are going to get the real Ultima as a major villain, and that they were the one that introduced auracite to the world. The High Seraph from the Ivalice raids was a summon based on the memories of that entity.

I'm glad I only watched the launched trailer once at launch and forgot what was in it by the time the expansion came out. I feel it left more suprised for the moment in game. For the next expansion I totally intend to skip the launch trailer completely. I might even try to avoid zone screenshots and the other stuff as well to try and go into it as blind as possible.

Chat was spamming the drinking emote everytime we heard meracydia 😂😂

There should be 2 conflicts: Koana vs Wuklamat (different approaches to unite people) and Zooral Ja vs Bakool Ja Ja (is being child of the ruler more improtant than being the blessed siblings). Not Wuklamat vs everyone.

I like alot of this talk but man was the talking about Zarool ja way off the mark. He was always a bad guy. He was the leader of what was essentially the army who wanted to lead an army to conquer Garlemald if he won and to have war. He dodnt have a heel turn as implied by Jesse. Hes always been evil and out for himself. Krile even sensed his anger through the echo and was so terrified that she couldnt speak. His 30 year transformation was not surprising as he was already a cold ruthless killer who was on a mission for conquest.

There is nothing beyond the binary

I finally finished through the video. Both of you did an amazing job and it was really fun listening to you. Hope you do something like this again. I remember going through the level 97 quest and wishing we would meet one of our reflections who would then turn out to be evil. Funny that Jesse's idea went into a similar direction. I was a little bit disappointed we didn't get more of that in dawntrail. Our existence wasn't acknowledged at all. I would have been happy with just a little bit more, you know. I appreciated you pointing out the stories flaws but still diving into its future potential. Helped me getting my mind off of the disappointing parts a bit even though I still remain worried about the future writing quality. Now I want to order the Encyclopaedia Eorzea.

This was great, thank you!

FFXIV's next villain has already been revealed - ua-cam.com/video/jeaJBQBvsMA/v-deo.htmlsi=EloNJWLDW96J2qUm

I wish CCs would stop pushing this narrative that people needed their WoL to be the center of attention in order to enjoy DT. No one actually said this or believes this, and if you think anyone did, then start posting your receipts. Btw, no, the ones of people on the official forums who give the worst opinions possible do not equate to the 20+ million accounts who have played FFXIV. 6.55 made it clear that the focus wasn't entirely going to be on our character. Oh and 'I never said that', yes, you said that people didn't like their WoL being a background character, that it was a 'tough pill to swallow'. In other words, they (supposedly) wanted their WoL to be a bigger focus, correct? Regardless, the problems with DT are multifaceted, and require a lot more nuance than just the handwaving you do.

One aspect of the story I find fitting considering my role at work as of recently, mentoring someone and guiding them isn't easy, especially as you try to get them to grow and become independent. Its very easy to simply take over and do the task for them but by doing so, they can become dependent on you to fix their issues. That aspect of the story seems to follow the issues first brought up in the Dark Knight class quests where Frey finds it frustrating that people become too dependent on you to solve their problems for them. Fitting that Ishikawa wrote that class quest series.

1:21:40 You can also flip it upside down and it kinda looks like the crown, even with the little diamond on the bottom.

Went into DT like this is a vacation. I just want to explore and stuff. Know some stuff is going to happen, but I didn't have any real expectations. Came out of the experience pretty happy.

Estinien: SAME FEELS BRO, best part of DT
