Even with the recent Dawntrail lighting updates, 1.0 is far superior.

2:21 kinda like the 6.0 scene where we first meet venat in person

it kinda reminds me of endwalkers intro scene...or am i just imagining things? only thing missing is hydalin

I think what surprised me most was the protagonist's grunt noises.

Imagine if cutscenes still had motion captured characters in them!

I can see what was meant by 1.0 being inconsistent. The cut scenes are beautiful but I imagine not being easy to maintain.

With the incoming gfx update ff14 will finally look as good as 1.0 did 10 years ago lol

I remember when we were first greeted with this cinematic during the Alpha/Beta and before the launch. Everyone on the forums was so excited myself included!

lmao he's just so flabbergasted

I wonder if they even mention where most of these people in the ship's holding (in this video) are coming from. They look like standard Eorzeans to me. 😹

FFXIV 1.0 did some very good things. It's a shame that they threw many of those positives along with the negatives and replaced those positives with negatives, such as washing board chests and backsides in 2.0 and onwards. Yikes!

Dumb

All the budget went to the animations.

What kit is this?

And was it a MG model or HG model ?

This is kinda awesome! I started as a warrior in Limsa Lominsa. I wish I could watch a full playthrough of the 1.0 story!

the lipsync?????????? they lipsynced cutscenes back in the day???????????

Full fucking circle - starting our walk to the End right from the start. Jesus, the FFXIV dev team are rock stars, managing to pull that off out of the ruins of 1.0.

Freakin Endwalker

The story scenes back then were so much better! Makes the newer version look like a cheap knockoff.

You know, in some (a lot) of ways, 1.0 looked better than xiv today. The momentum based movement system, animations, texture quality, body shaping, etc

So veteran players who started in Gridania were attecked by slavering wolfs and a mad treant, and got to meet Yda, Papalymo, and the Moogles, those who started in Ul'dah dealt with a rampaging Goobue and met Thancred, F'lamihn, and the girl who would eventually become Minfillia, and those who started in Limsa Lominsa fought off a horde of aurelias, met Y'shtola, and saw A FUCKING PRIMAL BEFORE THEY EVEN KNEW THEY WERE A THING!? Lucky sods.

Oh how I love this opening more--along with the song, as if Hydaelyn is singing to us, hinting the start of our journey to becoming the warrior of light🥺

I like the meteor shower the players dreams before seeing the storm they are caught in. Makes me think the devil planned the road to Endwalker all those years ago.

Came here as soon as I saw the first endwalker cutscene

I must say, holy.... mama...While in endwalker... your mi'qote is by far the most beautiful I have ever seen so far...................... wow

Oh good, I wasn't alone! lol Today this video has 5,347 views, lets see how many it has later lol

I see Im not the only one making sure we didn't imagine this. LOL

Not the throwback to 1.0 loool

Okay, so I wasn't just imagining things. Nice

Dat callback :D

A lot of people about to flood this video...

Did noone else on youtube upload this? This is so awesome, why does arr downgrade sm

Every video I've seen of a 1.0 opening has had the player character as a cat girl, lmao.

Every time I see anything from 1.0 (I started in 2015, so missed it), I get distracted by how loud the footsteps are.

so very true i wish i could still the 1.0 cs in my inn room as a legacy player.

This opening was way better than the ARR one

How hard was it to put the led in

It didn't always rotate? Huh, I did not know that...

im glad some one got footage of that awsome!!! groath

That is amazing!

Terrific stuff!
