    • Final Fantasy XII - HD...
    ** PLEASE WATCH IN HD **
    It is the very purpose I made this video after all. SD versions are all over already.
    This is my favorite scene in one of my all time favorite FF games. The first time we get a good explanation on what those mysterious beings are. It's meant to be just a test on how my PC can handle PS2 emulation, so I thought I might as well make it worth watching.
    As you may see, it struggled to record a full hd video down to the hard disk, keeping the framerate up while emulating at such high resolution on PCSX2 (R4600). PC native games are easy task, but emulation, yeah... is what you see here. Also, when converted to XVID it lost some detail, the original video had more then 10 Gb, so I had to convert it. I'd apreciate if anyone know a better codec and settings to make smaller files with less loss of details.

    hey are speaking in Iambic Tetrameter. Venat speaks in Iambic Pentameter. It IS poetry. They even space the subtitles for easier reading of the meter. Kudos to the localization team as they literally translated Japanese into English Poetry.

      the line "The Dynast-King, his fallow shards, coarse trinkets cut from Sun-Cryst's Light" is such a beautiful line. I really love when poetry uses alliteration like this.

    Huh, so Venat was basically a Promethean hero. Cosmic beings like Necron, Yu Yevon, summons, and the Occuria all seem like emissaries of the crystal's will. Engineering human conflicts to maintain the cycle (Samsara) of life and death, keeping mortals at lower stages of evolution to determine the course of history from behind the scenes. Think FFX was the first to indirectly address this world-building flaw; mythos of the FF13 trilogy( despite its flaws) more explicitly attacked the demiurge figure ( Bhunivelze). Looking forward to seeing how FF16's form of deicide.

    I'm sad we never got to do more with the Occuria. They seem so sinister in how they influence Ivalice. Destroying an entire nation because of bat shit crazy Vanye and House Solidor? Basch even agreed that was crass. I also feel like the Espers should have had some dialogue and more active role in the game.
    Here is how I would have continued the story:
    After defeating Vayne and Venat, I would have made Venat an anti-hero who wanted to challenge the Occuria like the Espers attempted. He admits this before his death then Belias and the other Espers you accumulated in your journey talked about why they chose to rebel against the Occuria and task the player with rebuilding the esper army to face them. The player gets to Ultima the leader of the Occuria resistance and she along with the other espers combine their powers to send the player and party to the Occuria's realm where there is a battle to free Ivalice and the espers from their control.
    That is a true end game story imo

      Unfortunately, the departure of the Occuria from Ivalice was probably the worst thing that could've happened. While it held the promise of so much potential and freedom for the people of Ivalice at first, it only led them all to their ruin at the hands of the Cataclysm, some 94 years after the events of FFXII.

      “Vayne’s conspirators”? More like Venat’s.

      @@Americansikkunt If that is honestly how you see the story of XII or Venat, I suggest you go back and look at the game again. Venat was very clear about what everything meant. The destruction of the Sun-Cryst severed the Occuria's ties to Ivalice; including Venat. The other Occuria consider Venat a heretic because Venat denied the Occurian right to rule Ivalice.

      @@Americansikkunt There is some debate on that, but all Venat says about after-wards is how glad they are the world is now "free" of the Occuria and offers Vayne hopes he gets "all that is his due". Considering Vayne and Venat commit suicide together at the end, it seems they were both genuine at least about wanting to give people the right to rule their own fate.
