That camera work during dialogs was better than what we can see through 90% of post-arr. I wish they kept this quality.

Id love to see this rereleased in all its 1.0 glory. Even as a side project on some private server. Heres to hoping at least.

isn't A Realm Reborn intro also similer to this intro as well?

I do wish they could find a way to reintroduce elements of 1.0 into current ARR, it would add so much to the base game to have some if this cinematic worldbuilding infused into something that is currently so infamously dry and tedious to new players. One thing that has always stuck with me about FFXI is the opening cutscene where allied forces are desperately fighting to protect their stronghold from an invading army of monsters. The destruction of pre-ARR Eorzea in 1.0's ending sequence is like a playable version of that single cutscene, and speaking as a post-reboot player my mind would have been completely blown to have the first story arc end like that. Ah well, it is what it is.

Watching this is like seeing a soap opera filmed in your home town

Canon Start!

I adore this. Bring it back plssss

I rather like this version better.

oh wow i remember this opening, its been so long

There's just something about the cutscenes in 1.0 that feel special

It's incredible how compared to the game we have today, this is so familiar and yet almost unrecognizable at the same time.

Im so glad this Game is alive and well ❤

why i am here this time of the year :x

Why are the cutscenes way better lol. They’re like fully custom animated and everything. And the lighting looks amazing too

So..trickys scream (madness combat/fnf) is from this goobue?

Kinda sad how lifeless the game is now when we had cutscenes like this. Like, don't get me wrong, the gameplay is much more enjoyable, but I feel like old FFXIV story cutscenes just hit different. They felt so much more alive and vibrant.

a stable 14 ffps! 1.0

Also Lalafells waking normally

Wow such a nice and happy parade I hope nothing bad happens

This is anti-goobbue propaganda, goobbue would never do this. Do not believe Minfillia.

The cutscenes were just so much better than what we have now.

omg there's young momodi and her sweetheart

Imagine playing through ShB with cutscenes like this

The Carriage Wheel Sound Effect playing for a Carriage that doesn't have wheels.

as nice as this cutscene is, and as stiff as the current cutscenes can be, as someone with a kind of shitty computer i’m honestly glad they’re not all like this anymore haha. my computer would be catching on fire

Why does this have better graphics than current one !? Sincerely now

1.0 cutscenes were better than the lazy mess we get now from YoshiPee

Today this event was referenced in the combination Hatching Tide/Little Ladies Day event. It was said to occur 15 years ago.

This version had a great soundtrack and was more creepy and eerie than it is now.

I have the same now, I can‘t even load my save on xbox 😅😢

Oh my .. this was soo cool... i never played any other ff game only ffxiv arr. so this was amazing to see , so when i started my toon i had in theory met Thancred , Minfilia as younger characters ? non the less i really enjoyed watching this thank you!

This definitely hits different than the 2.0-and-beyond intro to Ul'dah. Even if you cut out the Globb monster rampage, it'd still have been a more dynamic intro and a livlier depiction of the city

All these comments talking about they want these cinematics back when it was time consuming and what we have now it’s just better cause they can release content much faster

1.0 was a disaster but I give them props for really trying to make a cinematic approach to the cut scenes. (Not saying I don’t like current 14’s.)

the old intros are so much better

I had seen just the gobbue part of this intro before and clicking on this video today I did *not* expect to see Thancred hit on freaking Momodi of all people, or Momodi talking about manhoods. 1.0 was wild, huh?

1.0 was good in its own way its aged like a fine wine

Just nonstop footstep sounds 😂

Didn't know that Robin Atkin Downes used to voice Thancred.

Way more animation quality in this than current FFXIV, I gotta admit. I have never seen a goobue thrash so intensely

It feels like 20 FPS. Surely they could have done better back then?

The end days. Teased 10 years before it arrived.

Holy carp, F'lamihn had a voice actress?

this type of presentation in animation budget should come back in dawntrail, I swear this looks good still.

Maybe the Msq cutscenes wouldn't be boring if they went back to this style of cutscene
