XIV is simultaneously an original work, and also a perfectly curated museum for the history of the series.
As someone who has played all the main line games those references come hard and heavy.
The Japanese user base affectionately refers to xiv as a final fantasy theme park.
Not gonna lie....I straight up cried when I read the quest name...."You're not alone"
FFIX was truly special and seeing its plot devices reworked (just like FFIII's) makes FFXIV that much more special to players of the older games.
Btw there's more FFIX references I can think of.
The theme of nihilism is absolutely huge in Endwalker. Kuja and Fandaniel/Meteion both struggled with the meaning of life and chose the path of nihilism and destruction, while the WoL and Zidane/Vivi lived for their friends and family despite the circumstances of their humanity (or lack thereof).
Meteion's plan to disrupt the lifestream of cycle and rebirth is exactly like Garland's plan with the Iifa tree siphoning souls and preventing the recycling to the planet.
Yeah, can say that it is hard to get tears rolling from my eyes, especially by way of a video game.
But when I saw that Questname, the tears flowed.
The opening cinematic of Heavensward also has a scene where the WoL is in ishgard and he opens a window and then the camera pans out to show the rest of ishgard from the sky. This is reminicisent of the opening of FF9 where Garnet opens a window in Alexandria Castle and the window pans out to view the whole city from the same sky view
The fact that you have to go through the tempest to find Emet and fight Hades at the end its itself is a reference to where you find Hades in FF9 in the ocean room in memoria. Both Hades are underwater. Although is not the only Hades that you can find underwater; in FF7 the Hades materia can be found in the sunken airship in the bottom of the ocean. So it would be originally a FF7 reference...
Either way, it was a BIG tell of who the final boss would be once I stepped into the tempest... I knew/suspected hades would be the final boss, and when I got to "that scene" I gasped and was like: I KNEW IT!!!!
BTW great video! I cant think of anything you might have missed, great job!
My Miqo'te has a Garnet glamour for White Mage and I queued for normal raid roulette to find myself in Cruise Chaser. I thought it was absolutely hilarious fighting Ark as Garnet(especially because the weapon I have glamoured REALLY looks a LOT like the Pumice item icon in FF9).
I was already breaking down in Ultima Thule, but when I got to "the walk" with the music playing and saw "You're Not Alone" I just lost it.
Pretty sure many people struggled to walk forward, and they did. It is so amazing.
I use a Beatrix inspired glamour as my main outfit for both Dragoon & Paladin in FFXIV. As a mainly Dragoon player I hope we soon get a gear set modelled after Freya Crescent's appearance (it would certainly be nice with something just a bit different from various collections of spikes as Dragoon gear often seems to become).
Missed one: there's a minor wyvern-like mob in Rak'tika called Gizmaluke. Also, Fandaniel has some very Kuja-like mannerisms, and end up filling a similar role in that their despair bring about the appearance of a cosmic being that wants to bring about the end of life. Other than that, really glad more people are noticing how Hades' "wings" are a giant reference to the Oilvert mural.
The one reference I keep waiting for them to make however is the Black Waltzes; I'm hoping maybe they appear as corrupted Ascians or something in a future Pandaemonium raid. I know the name comes from FFII, but maybe some references to the IX version can pop up too- maybe a Silver/Nova Dragon?
Nova Dragon's original japanese name is actually Shinryu, so that makes Nova Dragon technically a FF5 reference within FF9 :P He uses tidal wave just like Shinryu as well
@@jochemdekoning7010 yeah, knew that, but still I love the design they gave him in IX so I'd love to see that bought back in some capacity
The Stormblood Black Mage AF gear gives me heavy Black Waltz 2 vibes.
It's also worth mentioning that if you look at the Yoshitaka Amano art for Kuja, he is literally accompanied by a twin-tailed blue bird, so I think it's safe to say that the Kuja-like mannerisms exerted by Fandaniel were VERY intentional and most certainly a reference.
That last reference was beautifully done. FFIX is still one of my favorite FFs but I'm so glad that FFXIV still can evoke such strong emotions that FFIX did all those years ago.
FFIX will always be my favorite game 💖
Quite the amazing watch including all the ones prior. The only thing I noticed myself that was missed in regards to FF9 references is the parallel connecting Dynamis and Trance. Dynamis was mentioned as a 'form of energy reacting to a surge of emotions' and the very first instance of Trance in FF9 when Zidane Trances during the Prison Cage fight, Steiner quotes "What is that light?! Could it really be Trance..? Trance is induced by a surge of emotion". Excellent work though, there was even some things I missed. Can't wait to see the rest of them
I'm glad to be in that small community post, helping with some of the references in here. Can't wait for the rest of the videos dude.
I legitimately had tears on my eyes when you played Close in the Distance near the end.
I remember when the quest "You're not alone." popped up I freaked and thought we were gonna get a remix of the song. We didn't but I still enjoyed the reference so much. Some of these references I knew while others I didn't, so thank you for the wonderful vid!
These are a tremendous amount of work, thanks for doing these. I am that friend that tells all my other friends about all the FF references as they play through 14, and i still find myself saying "oh, duh!" when you show me something that i totally forgot about as a reference to something. Love this series dude, keep up the great work!
Dude I am SO excited for the next video. It’s personally my favorite. 9’s my second and that ending did it so much justice. Great work!
My two favourites
I did NOT expect to cry with this video at the end. Thank you so much for a powerful message. (And i love these videos by the way)
3:55 I also use this song during the first half of the "bloody banquet" in my FFXIV series. Season 1, Episode 20 "When the Music Stops", before Aymeric makes his speech.
This was a great video. The only FF games I've finished to the end of the story are XIV and XV, and I have only watched let's plays of a few of the other games, III, IV and VI. Due to my limited experience with the franchise, a lot of the references in XIV go right over my head, so videos like this are greatly appreciated.
Man, that last portion of the video hit me really hard. Thanks for these awesome videos.
When playing though 14 and you hear tracks that you know you've heard before but can't quite place and now I know. Thank you
One thing I read recently is that while the Hades fight in Shadowbringers is a heavy reference to the summon in FFVII, the fact that Emet-Selch is found at the bottom of the ocean in a city recreated from memories, which could be an allusion to Hades in FFIX being encountered in an underwater section of Memoria
not sure if someone mention it, but the treasure hunting game in FF9 very similiar with treasure map hunting in FF14
also the crystal path in the way leading to 3rd boss of level 89 dungeon in EW is really remind me about the crystal path inside cystal world that leading to kuja final battle, not sure if it's intende or just coincedence
Found your videos by chance and watched all in one go. Great stuff
Rise! Is such a good song. It lives on my Playlists.
Mate, love these. Already looking forward to the next one
Dude, this is an amazing series. Amazing work!!!
That Crystalline Conflict map looks pretty similar to Alexandria Castle's courtyard, too.
Though that's probably more coincidence of battle map layouts--you can only have so many until at least some of them look kinda similar
I absolutely love these references videos in ffxiv it is such a fantastic series, keep up the good work as I’m looking forward to seeing my 4 favourite ff game final fantasy X next.
Thanks for breaking my heart again and putting it back together again with that last section.
Man I love these videos. You deserve way more subs
Ive been loooooooking for a video like this
really nice editing with the alexander part! :)
I never played FF9 but thanks for the video it was straightfoward and informative with easy references. Well done!
While I haven't played FF14, I'm happy to see how many references to 9 are in it.
I recommend it easily the best Final Fantasy game in terms of narrative
Wonderful work yet again! Can't wait for Tidus & Friends!
Solid video. Love ff9. My 2nd favourite. Gonna go binge all the other videos! Got my sub!!
this released right on time. thank you.
Well done man!
The main gist of the Shadowbringers story can be considered a reference to the end of FF9 as well. You travel to a different world, hoping to stop an ancient being from sacrificing your world to save his.
I can't believe I never noticed the leitmotif in Weeping City. That's subtle.
i love the music that plays in the you are not alone quest in xiv
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed the similarity between the Atiascope and Memoria!
Holly molly. I didn't realise there were so many.
I just started FFXIV while ago, cant wait to enjoy all of these FFIX ref. I cried at you’re not alone part tho, thanks for your hard work.
Ozma is also a refernce to the wizard of oz books, being a shapeshifting princess in them, hence why it can shapeshift in the 14 battles.
Yes.. outside of the city of mach i preatty much realize all the reference sine ff9 is my favorite ff. Which also hit me a lot in the endwalker section especially the quest name.
Man you don't know how much FFIX hits the right places to me
New video woo!
Thank you youtube for this video suggestion lol.
And now I've been spending my time watching all your series, watched 9, then 1 through 6, going to 7 next.
Questions:
- 1, 2 and 3 were made before EW. I'm not even sure if there are 1 2 n 3 references on EW, but if they exist, are you planning on re-uploading them appending the EW information ? And f yes, let us know so I can re-watch!
- Are you thinking in putting all Ivalice related stuff (FF12, FFT FFTA, FFTA2, Vagrant Story) in a single video or will you do separately for each game?
I've made a What I Missed (Part 1) video on my channel if you want to check it out! It's not all of them and I'm still compiling all the missed references including any new ones that are introduced in the patches. There will be a part 2 for sure after the FFXV video. I'll also be making a video about the plans after the series is done because FFXIV is still ongoing and so I plan on doing reference videos for as long as the game continues to be updated.
I'm still deciding on whether I'll have FF12 as its own and all the tactics as one, or if I do all of the ivalice stuff together. The only reason I'm considering splitting because FF12 has the most amount of references (aside from FF11) in FF14. The Ivalice raids and Bozja/Zadnor alone already makes FF12 have more than any other game in the series. I'm also making a "other FF references (type-0, Crystal Chronicles, etc.)" video as well so that's where the other ivalice games will go. For now, tentatively FF12 will be separate but that might change.
@@Autobalance Thank you for the reply. I watched the video you mentioned now (and all FFs reference ones so far, GREAT WORK!).
Yeah, I mostly asked regarding 12 because not only has the entire bozja and whatnot, but also an entire raid series, plus the vieira and everything else, which is not ALL exactly "12", but it's a mix of the entire Ivalice Alliance.
We got Ramza and Alma from FFT going into Dalmasca from 12 which then you fall into an old FFT city, so it's very intertwined. From a story standpoint, making an Ivalice video makes more sense so you can lay down the entire story in one go
But at same time, due to number of references, might be too big and maybe going by game instead is better, but it'll probably be harder to make the timeline reference unless you keep quoting the older videos.
Nevertheless, great work so far, I'm hoping to see more in the future, specially that mostly half of the references specially from old games I missed and whne I watched your video I was like "OHHH so that's why I found it familiar" or even "oh sh!t I didn't know that" haha
It'll be specially great on the next videos for me, because I didn't finish FF10 back in PSX nor the HD remaster I own, barely started 10-2, never played 11 (I just know Shantotto is from it), never went far in 13, and never touched 13-2 or 13-3.. So everything you show will be news to me (other than shantotto event and Lightning's events from back then).
And will be great to see what I've missed from 12 and Ivalice because I love it and played 12 a ton back in ps2 rofl.
One thing I would like to point out is that in for the heavenward story for black mage. Your quest giver has vivi's outfit. Who is a potato and a blackmage
I wonder if you might look into this. I noticed Final Fantasy's 9 ATM system and the Final Fantasy 14, "The Echo" to see if they might reference to one another. I noticed when you go to the Moogle to save or receive a letter from them that we get an ATM playback scenario to watch an event that is significant to the storyline of FF9. Also, I have noticed The Echo is a playback feature, which we can watch a playback that is significant to story of Main quest in FF14. Of Course, the difference is that you go to the character, in order, to watch the playback feature. It would be interesting to see that the ATM and The Echo are one in the same. It is just a thought.
Another possible story link (and FF9/Endwalker spoiler)

In FF9 and Endwalker the final bosses are driven by very comparable motivations. Both Necron and the Meteia drive on extreme nihilism. Both of them react to the mysery around them (Necron by Kuja's despair and destruction and the Meteia sisters by discovering the ruins and pain on other stars). Both come to the conclusion that life is pointless and a burden and see death as a gift. FFV also had a similar villain, Square really loves their nihilist boss trope.
I cannot wait to see what other references you will add to Patch 6.2, but I hope you add Beatrice and Eidolons has FF9 references. I know there are many more from each Final Fantasy, but these two examples were the 1st one I notice. I cannot wait to see your further installments.
There is another reference to FF9 and that is the name Memoria, which Zero talks about in the within the 13th Shard. I know Memoria was the area, which is the area before the Crystal area.
love itttt
My two favourite FF games
well, that ending speech made me sniffer. ;_;
9 was my first final Fantasy so its close to my ❤
FFIX will forever be my favorite in the series. I'm Prima Vista in game on FFXIV!
Between close in the distance straight into memories of life, imma just go sob in the corner for a minute (:
Ff9 is just the best, soon as i heard flamenco i had to see if they had the scroll and immediately got it.
Cruise Chaser also uses his most hated attack from FF9, Propeller Wind.
I really wish they would have done a Soken-fied arrangement of You're Not Alone for that quest.
Damn...You didn't have to hit me like that.
When you do FFX, the backdrop for e5s is from that game.
Void Ark dungeon from Shadow of Mhach also looks quite a lot like Pandaemonium in FF9.
I watch another background story of Final Fantasy, which the final boss fight was supposed to be Hades than Necron. It would be interesting to see with the final boss fight with Hades in Final Fantasy 14 was the optional boss ending for FF9
I might be wrong but I think you missed a major reference to IX in XIV. The ending. Both main character sacrificing themselves to save their friends. Just your MC had help getting back because near death.
12:41 AH DAMN IT! YOU GOT ME THERE!
Did anyone else listen to You're Not Alone from IX during that quest?
11:06 alright, I have finished EW I am ready
(the piano starts)
I am not ready. I need tissues again
The ending off FFIX still makes me tear up to this day. Also you missed a huge reference in Mount Gulg. Mount Gulug in FFIX was supposed to be Mount Gulg but got a spelling mistake. Kinda like Aerith/Aeris
Mount gulug/gulg in both ff14 and ff9 are references to the original ff1 mount gulg
The Viper job in Dawntrail may be a reference to Zidane.
so idk if you listened to Pandemonium theme in end walker but its similar to Pandemonium from ff9
We are never alone and may we always walk in the light of the Crystal. Phoebe Maritn (Zelra)
My favorite game in the series next to ff4. I have to reup my subscription so I can experience these wonderful Easter eggs myself.
FF9 my fav' final fantasy... so much good memories and i would love more reference ^^
I found another reference point for you in A Realm Reborn. When the Scions escape from Uldah. Thrancred mentions a secret passage from the Queen's chambers behind the fireplace. In FF9 when Zidane, Garnet, and Vivi escape Alexandra. They do so by a hidden passage behind the fireplace. In so doing so, Freya, Beatrex, and Steiner stay behind, so they can escape. The Scions stay behind so our character, Taturo, and Alphinaud escape out of the city. I hope this helps you in What I Miss Part 2.
oh I forgot to mention. The fireplace is in Queen Brahme's private chambers. I cannot wait for your next installment.
one that I didnt see mentioned and might be a bit farfetched. at the end of the Eden questline the tree that Eden transforms in bears a bit of a resemblence to the Iifa tree.
Thanks for sharing your information of some references from ff9 with ff14. Also, I noticed the Goblin greeting of Lalli-ho is similar to the Goblin greeting of Rallie-ho from Condo Pette. Also, Sea of Clouds remind me of the Chocobo Air Garden in FF9 if the Air Garden was in 3d. In addition, I do not know why, but I feel the music Melodies of Life would be a perfect music for Shadowbridgers. The story of Shadowbridgers reminded me of FF9 from beginning till end. Final Fantasy 9 was my 1st Final Fantasy game I played, so I want my character to play homage to ff9. I am curious of thing. When Albert asks us to take his axe could be in reference to FF9 when we choose 4 characters to defeat Necron, and the other for are giving up their energy to him. I know with Aldbert's axe we were able to defeat Hades.
Lastly, I am wondering if you are going to do combination of characters. For instance, Vaulthry. I can see a lot of elements from ff7, ff8, ff9 in one person. I notice you mention Sephiroth. Also, he reminds me of Queen Brahme by his demeanor. His face reminds me of Don Corneao, and he is as high as the slug thing in ff8, which was in the Balamb Airship.
You're thinking of the Shumi called NORG. Yes, all caps is necessary for his name.
@@jimi_jams yup
"Lali-ho" is actually originally from the original, though it's Dwarves that say it there
@@Iffem True. The emote is the same as Rally Ho from FF9. I do like it if we pick the dialogue of Rally-HO. The dwarves from ff14 find it to be insulting. I meant the dwarves, but I am not too worried about it.
There's actually a direct reference to the Conde Peite dwarves... I think it's in the shadowbringers dwarf tribe quests? If not it's definitely somewhere with the dwarves.
You have the option of saying "R-Ralleigh-ho?" When one of them beckons to you, which is a direct line-for-line reference to when Vivi enters Conde Peite for the first time!
dont forget the dwarves in shadowbringers that say lali ho like the ff9 dwarves that have a similar saying
Can you please send a link to the song at 2.10
Il watch it when i have done endwalker. Dont want da spoil.
The you are not alone scene is also lampshaded earlier in the Endwalker MSQ, SPOILERS BELOW
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
Garland actually rips out Zidane's spirit/soul or alters it in some fashion and he is then placed on that throne. The same thing happens to the WoL when Fandaniel swaps our body in the tower of babil. Our empty husk is on the throne as Zenos takes control.
Would like to watch this, but still in Stormblood Jail, so can't in fear of Spoilers
I want to watch this, but i havent finished endwalker yet :x
Gigi is honestly my favorite reference to FF9 cuz Vivi is such a cute character
And people called me crazy for hearing the battle theme from FF9 in Weeping City, lmao.
FF9 is the best FF game, and possibly one of the best games ever made.
Ff9 is my favorite game. I'm glad they added all these references into ff14
Now that you mention the masks in the Hades fight i can confirm my always hunchs that Hades is inspired in Black Mages Waltz from 9, cause eyes etc... and seeing that Emelch is a BLM in Elpis chapter i think it can be legit.
I swear, ShB was supposed to be the FF9 expansion, and it got hijacked by Viera. Vamo Alla Flamenco, the jesters, the fact that the 'generic' Sin Eater looks like a burmecian with a deformed face and wings, hell the fact there was a *dancer* class to begin with.
But no, gotta chase those bunny thongs.
I mean let's face it eulmore drew parallels to treno and the stark class differences there. When it's featured in the opening cutscene it's where my mind went straight away. With the far cats quite literally lording it above everyone else.
Wish they'd add garnets little overalls to the mogstation
You can sorta fudge it with the Drindi top with tights, both dyed orange. Though, you're rather limited with gloves needing big sleeves attached to them, like the Eikon leather aiming ones, though there are WHM ones that can do the same.
6.2 raids are referencing ff9
What it is to be "Final Fantasy", I cried
For me is FFIX the best Game from Final Fantasy.
Every Game has somthing that i cant like. But Final Fantasy IX is amazing.
No matter what other people say, FF9 is and will always be the next best FF after FF6.
Ah yes, one step closer to FFXI. Good luck when you get to that.
I literally just started playing 9 for the first time yesterday so I'll be back to watch this afterwards 😭
On another hand, I'm much happier with this game than 8, I'm sorry but I hated 8.
8 had some great ideas, but were executed weirdly, and the last quarter of the game was just straight up 5D chess nonsensical. It has it's fair share of lovers, for me personally I don't hate the game but it's low on the list of ones to replay.
I say skip 10 for now until they release blitzball 😆🤞. Ff11 and 12 has huge impact on 14 anyway.
FFIX, the most cartoony FF of its era. Looks funny, stupid, and nothing cool like FFVIII.
Vivi is a crybaby, Zidane is silly, Steiner is stupid, Garnet is bland, Freya is boring, Eiko is a brat, Amaranth is an emo, and Quina is just plain weird.
That was me at a young age, i didn't play through the game myself, and i don't want to read this silly cartoony game.
It was because i wanted to play the game myself that i started reading the story. I found it interesting, but still, nothing compare to FFVIII.
Once i reached a certain age, i went back to it due to nostalgia and the love for its main theme "The place i will return to someday", the most memorable theme of all time for me.
I was crushed by those same dialogues I've read through and the characters i made fun of. Even the main theme can drive me to tears.
It was quite a coincidence and pretty poetic that the main theme brought me back to the game.
This silly cartoony game is the best FF for me.
surprised you mentioned the zorn and thorn references while not mentioning the similarities between ranjit and beatrix
While there are... some, Similarities with Ranjit and Beatrix, being unwinnable boss fights (Even though every time you meet Ranjit you do technically win), The rest of their characters are too far apart. Ranjit is a tragic villain who is trying to cope with the loss of his surrogate daughter (many many times over) by literally giving up and wanting to just keep her safe and let the world end because it doesn't matter. Beatrix is a soldier doing her duty, "My Queen, Right or wrong." But she knows she's doing wrong, and as the story goes on, your few interactions with her she's clearly trying to repent. And that is their major difference. While Beatrix is originally "My Queen, right or wrong" she knows she's wrong at the time and later tries to repent. Ranjit never regrets his actions or repents, it is Shadowbringer's ultimate narrative of 'A protagonist of their own story.' To you, he was a recurring villainous general. To him, he was a father trying to protect his daughter.
FFXIV has pretty much become one big homage to the series as a whole, which is ironic considering how the original 1.0 version was basically considered a complete and utter disgrace to the FF series and its legacy.
