When 2:33 kicks in, the emotional wave takes over

Outstanding! It’s always great when you can’t tell which layout it is right away!

“WHO ELSE WILL I EAT ICE CREAM WITH?!” Ah… wrong game, but still so sad in both…

Dawntrail was, I think, my least favorite expansion, with so many holes n turn arounds that rubbed me the wrong way. But its epilogue truly was something else, guided the whole way through by this track, one that's just so indescribably impactful and poignant to me. No matter the expansion's faults, this is how I'll remember it by, and in a funny way, 'Living Memory' will live as my truest memory of Dawntrail.

As a drk WoL, this place and its story were just so heartbreaking. (Just to add up, was playing at kr server. heard eng translation of drk job quest was a bit different.) Started the game when 6.5 was updated. therefore 7.0 was my first expansion pack. I really love this game. love the message they were trying to convey. We must love. Even after the loss and sorrows, our journey must carry on. However, they are never forgotten. We will remember them, keep their legacy at heart. After all we experienced in 2.0~6.0, this meant a lot. To be honest, dawntrail wasnt a pack that made me cry in 02:00 like endwalker. but it gave me a message, something to reflect on my entire story. I really, really love this story.

Sounds like Kingdom Hearts

I lost my dad suddenly 2 years ago. I think a lot of people end up asking the question what would i do with just five more minutes. Dawntrail asks you that question here. I've never had a game have me sobbing and shaking in the second to last quest.

I used to play FFXIV with my bestie since 1.0 till Endwalker , he passed away in 10th of April this year, i miss him so much.... so much , when i went to this world of " Living Memory " i cried alot as if Yoshida-san was knowing my feelings, i wish i can see him again, every corner in FFXIV reminds me of him so much memories our laughter, our struggles with bosses, and yet im still playing FFXIV , thank you for this amazing extended ver. and sorry to release a huge amount of unwanted aura.

大好きな曲で、二度と聞きたくない曲。

When I finished Dawntrail, I didn't initially like the ending, I thought Sphenes character arc was not well developed and i wasn't really emotionally effected by the shutting down of Living Memory (besides Kriles parents) The more that I have sat with it since then Ive realized how much of a beautiful inverse of the Endwalker story it is. Endwalker and by extension the Zodiark/Hydaelyn Saga is about Remembering the Fallen, Remembering those who sacrificed themselves to bring about a better world. Dawntrail takes you by the hand and says "Remember the dead, Give them the respect they deserve, but dont get stuck in the past, because there are those who are still alive, and they matter too" Dawntrail wasnt a knockout story for me like Shadowbringers or Endwalker but it was a lot better then I initially thought it was now that ive had time to digest its themes

Squareenix giveth this stunning area and music, then they taketh away.

I enjoy the simple beauty of the area’s message: it’s okay to cry, you have to let go, and you have to move forward no matter what.

It's so hauntingly melancholic. Soken really is a master of music, producing a piece that perfectly encapsulates what a struggling fake-afterlife is. Honestly, just stunning.

Remember us... Remember that this song once lived.

The duality of nostalgia and bittersweet melodies and harmonies in this piece are so amazing. It feels like coming home and also makes you want to cry. I find myself humming this constantly. Absolute perfection.

❤❤❤

Long live ‘The Golden City’ *cries for Cahciua*

"I'm sorry..." "Don't be, this means we both have something worth fighting for, right?" -Takuto Maruki Many people have been hating on this zone...but its not FOR them. This place is for all of us who've lost somebody we love...its here to remind us, let us cry, let us suffer in the moment so we can move forward, so we can walk on, and never look back. Remember them, they will know. I promise.

Anyone want to give this the old 10 hour special. I listened to this on a flight to Singapore recently and it just makes me cry. It’s my sleep music

5064 Ike Mall

This is Twighlight Town but depressing.

0608 Janie Wall

what game is this?

i know its supposed to be like that, but this song feels like something that would sound before a person dies in a hospital. Like a waiting song for death

Living memory to fading memory 😢

i wish i had spent more time exploring each area

It's giving last day of summer in twilight town.

Would be interesting to see about those forgotten. Or lost after they ran out of aether.

I tear up every time i come back here. This was the only area in 14 that made me feel this way.

I'd have to say, it takes a lot of balls for the dev team to build possibly one of the most beautiful places in mmo history and give you the option to shut it down forever.

This area really was a gamble narratively speaking Some of my friends hated it, but it worked on me. Same way that they were torn by EW but the expansion that did this to me was ShB

Best comparison to this place would have been Amarout, recreated by Emet-Selch, but that was a memory with faded ghosts that weren’t fleshed out fully, always repeating. But Living Memory, is quite literally a return of the dead, restoring them at their happiest, where they could make peace with their end and shed any regret they carried, free to frolic in paradise…

i forgot that in the prologue to dawntrail in 6.55 wuk lamat and the other characters specifically actually HAD interactions like this one compared to 7.0 when they mostly just go like "oh wow that just happened", gods i hate how the new writer handled the characters in dawntrail so much it's unreal

Looks like my summer vacation.... is over.

Going in to this place and hearing this theme, I was all like "Traverse Town looking mighty different right now." XD

This area alone solidified this as my favorite expansion. It was so powerful

this zone really hit harder when you had lost someone from death, i lost my dad when i was on grade school, and my step dad 2 years ago. During MSQ i kept crying every time we made a memories with those endless, and we need to shut down the machine, everything turn to grays. I wish i could have a last goodbye to both of them, like wuk lamat did to namikka, krile to her parents, and erenville to cachiua. If i knew they will gone from my life. Thank you dawntrail, for making me cry :')

this soundtrack just activates the urge to cry in a way that I cannot explain

I cant listen to this without crying my eye's out but i made my friend cry harder when I pointed out that in a place with a district dedicated to the memories of the valorous and the best fighter's, Otis' memory was enshrined in the place for children and the young at heart and when you think on that it starts to twist the emotional knife.

The aura in the sky being the colors of a sphene was a really nice touch.

We can always just make more sea salt ice cream.

I dunno about you but I sat around Living Memory for a long time, took in the sights and listened to each person cause I knew it was all gonna disappear, and this nostalgic and sad music really set the tone, I will remember them Kinda sad I cant see Alexandria and Lindblum in its prime tho

The 3:00 marker when the vocals kick up really gets my spine tingling, like everyone there is singing out in the background - then they seemingly fall off at 3:30... like someone just unplugged them.

Everyone is talking about twilight town however the similarities to “No promises to keep” are staggering

man, the sheer gut wrenching dread i felt when i pulled the plug on the first section, fully taking in just how empty it was. now when i go through, it feels so empty, like a mall that shut down with all its stores cleared out. i honestly wasnt sure how cbu3 could top ultima thule, but somehow they took it and slam dunked it. thanks for all the memories, ill cherish them forever.

I hope they played this at The Mirage in Los Vegas when they shut it down. An old hotel, notable for having a volcano on the outside, and stages, canals, and a beautiful greenhouse inside.

“Storytime at the old folk’s home and paying as much attention as possible since this could be their last day and nobody else has seen what they have. playing with the arthritic old dog who’s having the time of its life but it hurts you because it’s clearly in pain.” The theme

I think clarinets and oboes just resonate at the frequency of tear ducts, to be honest

An couldn’t even ride the dang carousel.
