FF16 Ultima Ultimalius final boss battle.
"The only fantasy here is yours. And we shall be its final witness."
Nice title drop there.
"and I'll gladly do it SIXTEEN times!"
ROLL CREDITS
the only reason why yoshi-p ask us to play this on english dub, not because the lipsync problem, because sqenix want us to hear this line
I love the part where Clive said "This has been your Final Fantasy XVI!" and Final Fantasied all over Ultima.
Truly one of the Final Fantasies of all time.
.

I like that Ifrit, Phoenix and Bahamut actually work together to fight Ultima. Goes to show how powerful he really is.
Yeah. Makes me wonder how it would have gone down if Shiva was there. From how Dion still remained in control, it seemed like Jill could have joined the fight. The way they were stating the risks made it seem like Dion was going to point Bahamut at Ultima and hope he'd attack him. Kind of like how Bruce Banner uses the Hulk. But no, he's in perfect control, Eikons apparently only go berserk when their Dominant goes crazy whether or not Clive absorbs their powers.
@@chrisdaughen5257 They were just making what guesses they could about what might happen. They only had one example after all.
@@chrisdaughen5257 Jill was already half stone at that moment.
@@Dragongard Dion should have been fully stone. He absorbed the mother crystal like Kupka, but he only got his head cut fighting Ifrit.
@chrisdaughen5257 dominates can all absorb a different amount of aether it's random luck. And the more aether the dominate can hold the stronger there eikon
It ends with exactly what every player no doubt wanted to see: a slow-motion close-up of Ultima getting punched in the face. Absolutely perfect.
Always nice to see that Asuras Wraths legacy of punching god right in the face lives on.
@@emetantiI was thinking the same thing!! 😂😂
Rejecting God and Punching him in the face.
Demi Fiend would be proud.
Not to mention seeing it do 999999 damage!
@@emetanti After seeing him get knocked the fuck out, I was hoping that Clive would blow Ultima’s head off like Asura did to Chakravartin.
I just realised one thing:
Ultima in latin means "Final"
Mythos in greek means "Fantasy"
Ultima vs Clive is *literally* Final Fantasy.
What about Logos?
@@Franklin_Malloy Logos means "Thought" or "Reason", and it's the opposite of Mythos.
Ah I see, we're keeping with the tradition of calling the post-credits scene the "Secret Ending" lmao
Gotta click bait somehow
Yeah there is no secret ending at least according to everything I could find online which is surprising you'd think they'd have at least a couple endings
@@mr.brightsai6772 that was never going to be the case, Yoshi P said the story was one and done.
at the end of the day the main protagonists[Clive, Joshua, Jill, Torgal] survived anyway and Leviathan may be a DLC.
@@mr.brightsai6772 nah, AFAIK all mainline final fantasy games have one fixed ending
@@GiorgosAigio96 but Clive and Joshua didnt survived
The “onward my son” gives me chills to the bones
THIS ^^ I was curious who would be the call out during Odin's part and the goosebumps were REAL
The montage of Clive and Joshua is beyond emotional
I love Google slides too
I mean probably but personally it made me laugh out loud.
More emotional than Rocket Raccoon’s origin in GOTG vol 3?
I feel it so damn much that I continue to cry over it..
I like all the small dialogue and voice touches they did with Ultima. For the whole game he was speaking almost robotically. Calm, collected, as if nothing could touch him. Then as the fight drags on, he starts losing that composure as he realizes he's less and less in control of the situation. Even when he's talking about "Logos" you can see his movement in that cutscene is somewhat janky as his voice slowly starts losing it's robotic-likeness. He, in his desperation starts showing more and more through his movement and voicework that he isn't untouchable, he isn't infallible and that no matter how much he tries to prop himself up, he's not in control of what's going on. In short, he ends up showing that he and the "Humans" he looks down on are very much the same just from the changes in speech and word choice.
Harry Lloyd’s performance was amazing! He also voiced Z in Xenoblade 3, that’s why i thought they were so similar lol
Exactly, it felt it started to become more personal as the fight went on
If you play Asura's Wrath, you'll notice similar deal with Chakravartin. Hell, Clive and Asura even defeat their big bads in a similar way.
@@vestal3430 That and both of their respective boss fights took place inside Origin
@@JustJuan731I think that’s because he divided himself into multiple Ultimas. When they all come together he drops the “we”
I don’t think a final boss has ever made me cry from just how epic it truly was. This is a first
Dude that final boss was ridiculous!!..I had to look over my shoulder a few times playing it at night in my room lol..amazing work!!
you need help
@@relly793 let people enjoy things
You need joy in your life
Lol these the type of lames that still live off their grammas welfare lol..they telling me I need joy in my life when I got a Huracan in my garbage 😂😂😂 lames
"I ask not for acceptance...Only forgiveness!"
Dion to me has such a strong character that when i reached this part of the game, I teared up. This man has gone through so much and yet you can see he still cares for those around him in this moment.
Even with like 25% power (maybe 50%), I'm sure he was able to teraflare (assumption made because of the flare turned yellow) ultima prime and megaflare him. Shows you how insanely strong he is as a dominant and as a prince of indomitable will.
All the bad stuff he did wasn't even his fault, but he still fights for forgiveness
You want forgiveness? Get religion!
41:35 for a character who was only around for really a short space of time he left a mark that "Go on, lad!" from Cid bought such a smile to my face
Cid was with him throughout this battle.
Clive IS Cid. I love that is shows that we carry on Cid’s will in a palpable way. Cidolfus the goat fr
Loved the entire game but Cid was by far my favorite character. The voice actor absolutely nailed the role.
Made me emotional.
Cidofus's soul lives in him.
😭🥺😭
Shout out my boy Dion. He went all in for this. Ultima literally infiltrated the mans family and turned them against each other, he earned it.
"The only fantasy here is yours. And we will be it's final witness!"
That is the single GREATEST title drop line I've ever heard, not to mention I'm pretty sure it's the first time we've actually gotten a title drop in a Final Fantasy game.
Ok
The epilogue of the first Final Fantasy has a title drop.
The last flames of rebirth scream gave me chills. This whole battle including the interdimensional rift. This game! Wow
Asura would be so proud of that Final Punch.
Indeed!💯👌🏼
GOLD EXPERIENCE!
Ya boi hit him with the Chakravartin-Killer Gold Experience Special.
There is always some fool who wants to rule the world!
Always forcing others to do what they cannot do for themselves!
And that's why I pray to no one!
nor I will be to!
@@SuperFusionAJ93
And. Above all else.
I will NEVER. FORGIVE YOU. FOR MAKING MY DAUGHTER CRYYYYY!
They seriously, genuinely, unironically dropped the "this truly is your final fantasy" lmao
22:56 man the way Clive just break's down really just fucking hurts legit had me tearing up with how raw the emotions felt.
Ben absolutely killed this role
If he doesn’t bring it home for best voice actor at the game awards I’m gonna lose it
@@michaelhunter3692faxxx
@@michaelhunter3692he couldn’t 😢
@@sazidulkabir9290 it’s all good ffxvi did win best soundtrack tho and ffvii rebirth got highly anticipated game for next year awards
This is what Final Fantasy is all about. They absolutely nailed this game.
And I’ll absolutely nail your ass
7 was still better though
@@beastmotoz That's great and all but nobody fucking asked.
More like Devil may cry. Lol. Should have copied the gameplay of FF15.
Nah, if they copied Devil May Cry that gameplay would have actually been good lol
Its cool how when Ultima uses Limit Break, its the exact opposite as when Clive used it.
Clive used it to accept the truth and then his theme kicks in and battle turns in his favor.
Ultima used it to deny the truth and then All as One erases any trace of his theme left and the battle turns in his enemy's favor.
I like how clive doesn't really show any struggle against ultima. He just kept overpowering him again and again
This was the only game to make me legitimately cry. Others have made me a bit misty eyed but I lost it when the red star next to the moon went dark and Jill ran out crying.
Same here
I also felt sad after the fight when Clive returned to Joshua’s lifeless body, it’s like I won but my little bro is gone😢😢
Clive and Ultima calling upon the Eikon's power.
40:53 - 43:40 - 48:30
I love how creepy Ultima is. It's very subtle, because even though he looks human, those weird round eyes without eyelids and weird mouth without lips. Truly something uncanny about his whole looks overall. I've also seen some similarities design-wise to Zodiark (ff12), Safer Sephiroth and Jenova. Something interesting was the director's choice for the final boss theme songs: they seem to be more about the main character and his emotions than the enemy itself, which is what we usually get in Final Fantasy games. Now, the plot... Does anybody else feels like this is still Fabula Nova Crystallis we're talking about? Ultima is basically Bhunivelze from Lightning Returns.
Ultima face is basically young Christopher Walken
Theyve been doing the whole "evil creator god" a lot lately
Lamest villain since Kuja. Ardyn would eat this mfer.
@@1buszybudy13 since the first Final Fantasy, the story is basically a bunch of adventurer killing a God, or a villain that ascended into God. Yet different execution, but most of them are DnD inspired fantasy, except 7 and 8.
FF7 gave you capitalism as an enemy, while FF8 is a high school musical drama.
Really? This guy clicked with you? Personally I thought he was the most boring antagonist I have ever seen in an "RPG". For me personally this might be the worst Final Fantasy game yet, mostly due to all these shallow characters and the lack of interesting antagonists.
The demo also made you believe you would see some intrigues in this game but no.. almost every leader just dies in a cutscene, with an exeption of those with a kaiju. This game was all about spectacle, not about a story or it's characters. It's not even a real RPG, it lacks almost everything that defines RPGs or JRPGs.
“And than overcoming his fate, like he always did, Clive gather his strength and said: “it’s Cliving Time” and than proceeded to Final Fantasy: 16, all over Ultimate. The End.” -Joshua Rosfield
The desperation in Ultima's "flames unforgiving" was spot on. He knew he was on the brink of losing. Amazing performance by the voice actors
Easily the best final boss the series has had in decades. No guaranteed win final phase, loads of forms with unique designs and musical arrangements of rhe Ultima thematic material, absurd amounts of spectacle and use of all the game's mechanics. Might be my new favourite final boss in all of games.
finally, Sephiroth was dethroned.
I thought ultimate was ugly as shit but his final form design is so badass
I love fighting blue bahumet with wings. Especially when it's just the same powers being matched. And the name for the boss is really original, never seen that name be used before in the series ever.
for me second best together with Kuja behind Sephiroth. Those two had the personal tragedy going for them and were more relatable.
@@mobpsy1526 in terms of character, I'd agree with Kuja. My comment was meant purely in terms of the fight, not necessarily the character.
I am glad Ultima is patient enough to wait for Joshua and Clive to end their talk
Good thing that there was no Jack Garland around.
@@igormartirosov2296Jack would Falcon Punch Clive before he does.
@@user-cp7co1wb8n Jack would be the shit out of Ultima. Jack is Chaos😈
I think he waited because he was busy merging with the other ultimas and taking his sweet time lol
@@user-cp7co1wb8nJack: "THIS IS NOT THE TIME!"
Dion MVP. Carried the team to the end.
i finished this game two days ago and the ending truly made me cry with sorrowful tears and a true connection with the characters and beautiful sights the best comrades you can ask (Cid,Gav,Torgal) for and unforgettable music FFXVI you will be in my heart with FFXV and Kingdom Hearts what a wonderful journey i was lucky to partake in 😭
50:20 i loved when claive said "i am the final fantasy" and push the face of ultima, they really make a good job with this game
A good way to end the FF Roman numeral games.
I am the final fantasy six teen
This has truly been the Final Fantasy XVI.
@@anklemannSquare Enix had stated that they’re considering moving on from using Roman numerals for “main” Final Fantasy titles (partially because they know if they ever get to 30, the internet will be… well, the internet).
@@BB-fy8kn sex
The refreshing build-up with Ultima from a soft and well-spoken figure to when the mask came off (figuratively and literally) becoming verbally pissed off knowing he was getting nowhere was such a beautiful contrast to see 🤣
I'm glad it showed Ultima bursting out of Joshua. I was wondering why he was still keeping him sealed inside himself when Ultima was clearly still doing stuff. Turns out he was a hive mind and he was trying to hold back one of his... bodies?
Yeah I was a lil confused at first too, but essentially, yes.
I love how the boss battles in this game can transition into Shmup and even borderline bullethell Shmup territory. Just pure chaotic visual splendor. But Ultima certainly takes the Cake on all that.
I made a build specifically for this boss fight that used abilities from every single eikon (with limit break for Ifrit). Let me tell you, cycling abilities from Phoenix to Garuda to Ramuh and so on was just the most unbelievable experience in games for me.
25:23 this scene gives me chills . Clive’s resolve is absolute.
Him doing the shield of rosaria salute saying that he’ll shield the firebird’s flame forevermore right after losing Joshua and inheriting his powers… powerful
Ultimalius was fucking bananas. I'm not sure you will see a sequence like.that in gaming for a long while. Im so happy.
Main story, side quests, characters, npcs, and the ending. All these are absolutely superb. Absolutely the best story I´ve ever played, the ending was the icing on the cake. While sad and brutal, its pure poetry. I´m afraid I may never play or watch a story this good again.
That side quest where you serve people food? Absolute poetry, bro this game is mediocre
@@DepressedMicaiahASMRagreed, the game fell off halfway through, Ultima is the most boring villain.
The qte’s in the boss fights are so shit. And don’t even get me started on the performance.
Combat is still really fun, especially respec and the 7 different Eikon powers.
LOL GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE. This game was cheeks. A step up above FFXV but a step down compared to Remake.
You will. Trust Square. They know what they are doing
@@FrankLotion9461your opinion
I love how Ultima gets defeated by the most human thing to do in a fight, A PUNCH IN THE FACE
Damn right!
"Why... why did you do this ?"
This was honestly what devastated me the most... as if it was truly beyond all understanding for him.
🔥"The only fantasy here is yours. And we shall be its final witness!"🔥
"I said! It's over!" (Finishes Ultima off with epic climatic clash!)
I love the Asura’s Wrath References ❤
There were so many references to other work in this game, the 2 I can remember right now were the ninja you fight in the Greatwood has a move that really reminds me of Rock Lee from Naruto (the lotus technique where he izuna drops you) and then the finishing move on Typhon was a reference to Goku vs Freeza on Namek (the spirit bomb before he turns Super Saiyan)
Asura would be proud
Clive’s final monologue to ultima hit me in a special way as someone who has constantly struggled to lean on people and find reasons to maintain hope it was a great reminder as to why I do anyways.
The ending is indescribable.
It’s just pure magic.
Thank you for making a cold man crying Square Enix.
Once in a lifetime
Wat
I want Clive back with Jill
the Torgal final quest made me cry as well.
@@supermonteiro which one is that?
@@mymelody3881 before the final fight, if you have done the previous torgal quests, you get the final one, where Sharon says Torgal has been sad and crying lately. It´s a very emotional quest about Clive and Torgal bonding.
So essentially Jesus his brother and Lucifer throw hands against God to prevent him from starting the Rapture? It’s what I’m getting from the story up to this point. The dialogue between them gives off that vibe.
Pretty much, yea lol
More the gnostic vision of Christianism. Jesus and Sophia (but showed as a male here, Clive) vs Demiurge/Satan, an evil fake god more than a demon king.
"Final" Fantasy
I really think that it was Clive who survived at the end & took Joshua's name to write his story (just like how he took Cid's name).
If you pay attention to all of the side quest before setting off to the Origin, the game pretty much hinting that Clive will live as an Author, come back to Jill at sunrise, & the voice narrating at the end "and thus how our journey end" was none other than Clive.
I think that has merit.
i thought it was hinted that if joshua survived perhaps he also was able to save clive or if the game wasnt well recieves they could say clive died and thats the end
It was stated in the game that once the curse took hold you were screwed as it would continue to spread. He also said that his body couldn't handle all that power and that Ultima was mistaken thinking that he could. Clive be dead.
@@XultanisDragon nope only his hand turned to stone the curse was stopped because there is no more magic for it to spread anymore so...Clive has to put down his sword now
@@drakofox1362 Nah, the broski is dead. He already talked about how all the power was too much even for his body meaning his body couldn't handle it. His hand turning to stone just means that he is soccumbing to the curse. It was said that once the curse takes hold it spreads, didn't say anything about magic needing to be used after.
Using magic makes it spread faster but he already pushed his body to the limits with what he did. He tried to do everything to bring back Joshua but couldn't. He could only repair the flesh but not bring back the life that was lost. He then used his power to take out the last mother crystal and he used everything he had to do it.
There were other people who knew about Joshua's idea about writing his book. Probably one of the kids or even the scribes of the Flame who did it.
The brothers are dead.
50:19
HE SAID THE THING
1:00:39 the music in this scene made me cry like a baby lmao. Genuinely such a beautiful soundtrack
Ultima: Tide Unstopping
Clive: Leviathan
Dion: He must be stopped
Ultima: Spatial Rend
Clive: Gilgamesh
Wade: Long live Lord Rosfield
Ultima: Divine Judgment
Clive: Alexander
Torgal: Ahhhhhh
Ultima: Hellfire
Clive: Come on Ifrit
Clive: I can do this
I have a better one for Leviathan: Tides Unobstructed
Another example of the "Did you just punch Cthulhu in the face?" trope that never gets old.
Agreed
Bahamut always have some weird but at the same time, unique and badass wings design😂
went with both the super large wings and super long tail
@@ChocoMogu15nah, he’s better as a dragon and not some robot angel guy
@@user-wu4ed3zl4byeah the Bahamut from FFXV looks cool but doesn’t look like he would be bahamut
@@Temperance_XVIIi thought he was cool until i noticed its a dude in a dragon suit
I just love final bosses in Final Fantasy games. They are always bigger than life. So epic!
The final phase kinda reminds me of FFXIV final bosses in a sense, mainly with how the boss starts all calm and composed with a constant "holier than thou" attitude against you, but halfway through the fight when its clear that you're gaining the upper hand it breaks character and grows increasingly more desperate and reckless with its attacks.
Game of Thrones + Prometheus = FFXVI
Don't forget Asuras Wrath! :)
Anyone get major FF8 Sorceress vibes from Ultima? Mainly his 2nd form when he absorbs all of the Ultima's. Face paint, godly space mage, crown/headpieces. Just feels like Ultimecia to me in a way.
Same here! glad im not the only person who thought this!
No doubt it's by design. They pay hommage to a lot of past FF, even the main battle theme starts in a very similar way to FFVIII's!
This and Bahamut were definitely the biggest highlights of the game's bosses for me, followed by Titan.
10:00 That "Oh.." felt like it came straight from a Disney/Pixar film and it made me snicker. 😂 This 2023 Asura's Wrath of a game is such hypetrain!
I’ve played all FF games, but I find the final fight in XVI the most epic one
Im born and bred Yorkshire and with final fantasty, FF6 was my first. Ive done them all I love the series. Then they make a Cid with a Yorkshire accent ❤ I adore this with all my heart ❤️
47:22 that hype theme change is godly
Find the flame final boss version 🔥
I loved this final boss, it will stay with me for a long time. I love how this game is all about brotherhood love
37:30 On this day I see clearly, everything has come to life.
😆 Good one!
45:03 is my favorite line, and Clive's response is cold as ice.
1:07:14 In the end, Clive truly was, a Final Fantasy.
5:18
Did he just use Final Fantasy in a poetic way.
A bittersweet ending but Clive likely saved Jill from a terrible death, since her curse was taking a heavy toll to the point Shiva was nearly powerless
That thing at 41:00 onward is so cliche, but man I'm all for it. It really hit home!!
Ultima might be the creepiest FF big bad so far.
So true
I'm almost getting (at least on a physical level) Jenova vibes from Ultima. Just goes right into the uncanny valley and never lets up.
@@atmastand3485Ultima’s design (of all its forms) is great cause he/they referenced all the best villains of FF.
Typhon second form as well when he gets 6 wings, looks like Kefka from VI.
Dark Ifrit with “one black wing” - Sephiroth references.
Ultima’s an cosmic entity like Zeromus from IV.
He manipulated everything and everyone to make the MC stronger from the beginning, just like Ardyn in FFXV.
Used to live in a society of divine beings now lost and wants to recreate it and bring his people back - that’s Emet Selch FFXIV SHADOWBRINGERS
Also kinda looks like Chaos in the ifrit form and the wings.
of course Ultima from FFT, and FF12.
But most of all, he thinks he can own someone else, just like Valisthea’s slavists. He’s exact opposite of Clive in everything starting from the former being divine and the second human.
At first I would have imagined FFXVI with a human main villain like Barnabas, but when I understood these things of Ultima, it hit me. He/they had to be the one.
Immediately in my top 5 FF villain ever.
Biblically speaking, Logos is God Himself.
Yahweh, The True God, has a translation.
It means "I AM".
Israel also has a translation.
It means: "He Struggles With God".
So Israel means: "He Strives with I AM".
To fight our better SELF and destroy our infernal shadow in order to evolve as people, is the true meaning of life.
By doing so, we embrace Logos.
Ultima, by showing that he despises Logos so much and wanting humanity to be a lifeless puppet, proves that he is not a true god.
He is Negative Energy made manifest through the Emanations of God.
(Emanations in Hebrew: Sephiroth)
He is not the Creator of man.
He is the Creator of man's weakness.
He is literally NOT Yahweh.
He is J-E-N-O-V-A.
@@CloudStrife-NoctisLucisCaelum yup, that is very right. I have a passion for theology and found the terms used pretty well there. Logos as “the word within”, the willingness and awareness, true freedom, the divine fire of consciousness inside each one of us.
Logos as intended by Hermes Trimegistus.
In fact Ultima using Logos in a negative connotation against Clive was on point, as the Logos elevates human beings to divine beings, and he didn’t want that at all.
Edit: Oh my I just realised how connected it is to Sephiroth reading your comment more carefully now, it’s insane.
Never in my life have I seen a more cinematic boss fight..
50:20 HE SAID IT!!
Probably the craziest final boss fight since Bhunivelze in FF13.
Ultima is definitely most similar to Bhunivelze in terms of personality and story. Ultima also takes inspiration from FF9 Necron in terms of design- colour scheme. Both had 4 hands too.
@Ephideltrance Yeah, they were extremely similar. Even the endings of 16 & 13-3 are similar with their deaths, resulting in a world in the image of our real world
This fight was way more entertaining than the sephiroth fight.
You are literally fighting God.
I really hope there are more quality fights like this inbthe future. Whoooo 😮😮😮
29:52 “Have you truly become… free?”
I love that line so much. On some level, Ultima’s starting to realise his plan has come undone. He starts talking in the first person singular, too. The way he powers up after saying that cinches it; this isn’t just the proceedings of a ritual anymore, this is a fight for his life.
Okay but I genuinely felt insulted when Ultima had the audacity to use the Phoenix’s powers.
Same with Shiva and Ramuh
50:44 For those who just wanted to see the meme
I thought Clive will using Phoenix Down to revive Joshua and will have happy ending.. come on man
Didn't the ending kind of go that way ? Clive And Joshua ( Looked like them ) were kind of re-birthed through the mythical phoenix
To all other game developers in the world. THIS RIGHT HERE is how you do a final boss fight
i loved this fight, just wish they would have added the little victory theme at the end after the last punch
This whole sequence is fuckin awesome. Peak FF, like FFIV final battle brought to life. This and FFVII Rebirth, FF fans are eating good
I seriously get Zanza vibes from this final boss. Anyone else feel the same?
Clive technically did what shulk. He created a world with no need for gods or in this case magic
This game is what happens when Xenoblade Chronicles, DMC, Asura’s Wrath, and Final Fantasy have a foursome. In all the best ways.
Hell yeah@@athenaraines
Now that I think about it..
In a twisted sense, the Iron Kingdom was right: Aether was a stain on Humanity. Maybe not for the reasons they thought but it was indeed a taint.
This is not secret but true ending...a lot of players already established it. And my words are still true..Odin had no chance against Bahamut if there was 1 on 1 between them. Thus a beautiful thing to notice is, in every Ultima related fight Bahamut powers does more damage than Odin's. Which is a thing to applause for the Creators presence of mind as Odin was a deep believer of Ultima, thus he couldn't do much damage to his deity whereas Bahamut was motivated to finish the dark shadow/Ultima. Amazing presence of mind by Creators. Also if guys ever notice whenever Clive do a long range damage to enemies through Phoenix's fire, Jill hide herself in ice coverage to protect herself. This so damn good and well thought.
Odins max zantetsuken does more damage than it tho, its just that odin abilities are weak because they are only meant to charge zantetsuken
@@yngshoelaceea I have to agree with you I thought he may have meant when clive was doing the clashes going through each of Clive’s Eikons but they do roughly the same damage so yea you’re right it’s literally because Odins skills are just meant to power his special other than that they are ass I wanted Odins abilities to do more damage but I just stuck with Bahamut in the end having a whole Eikon around one move made it difficult to work with in combat especially when it takes a long time to charge to level 5 didn’t seem worth having with is a shame
@@velvet33its kinda worth it one use of his ult almost fully charges it and you can basically spam it, it does roughly the same damage as giga flare and you can use it twice and a giga flare in one stagger combo
@@yngshoelace I been playing the new game plus when I do some more levelling of the abilities I will give it a try with some combinations just want to find the most optimal build to stagger fast and do big damage
Zettaflare is much stronger than Zantetsuken.
Man what's wrong with some of you? this was such a fun game and the setpiece bosses actually felt epic but you can't stop complaining about how boring you thought the combat was which just sounds like you didn't play it cause the combat was super fun. can you button mash through a lot of it if you really want to? yes. can you engage with the combat and make sick combos and kill things faster and better? yes. maybe you thought the boss fights were long and boring cause you weren't engaging with the combat enough to end the fights quickly
People will aaaaaaaaaaalways complain about good things
Yup, just goes to show how people can just suck and or be so picky, closed minded with their opinions. But hey, it's their loss.
Final Fantasy, Persona, and SMT Fans are different level of insufferable.
Preach, brother - I agree that the combat wasn't incredibly well-suited for the smaller mob battles since you can just kinda plow through them by mashing, but the boss battles consistently extracted the best out of the combat system and made it really fucking fun. Especially lategame. And Story, Visuals, Sound Design, Voice Acting? All top-notch. There's a lot to complain about, but a million things to love
Hope ffxvi-2 to see Clive and Jill reunited
FFXVI Royal edition 😂😂
Either way we need this in our life and we need it now lol
In a form of DLC that would be great
And what will you do in the DLC?
No Magic
No Eikon
If Clive survived he will not be a fighter anymore with his petrified hand.
I dont see any real open stories for a DLC.
@@kegosan7622 doesn't have to be at the end my g but it would make more plot holes now thinking about it
When Clive said " This is our Final Fantasy Academia." I cried. and then he Final Fantasied all over Ultima! I died. 10/10 game.
Honorable mention:
Bahamut drank grimace shake and turns into a freaking satellite.
I love the parallels with Christianity with Ultima, and also the differences. Ultima created humans to serve a single purpose, and they were reminiscent himself in a way. But humans were weak, and pathetic. And if they were a reflection of him, then what was he? So he turned away from them, and left them on their own, unable to accept their flaws as ones he bore.
In the bible, humans turned away from God first, not the other way around. Ultima phrases it as being the same, saying that humanity turned away from him, despite it being the opposite. Fun parallels. And you can't pretend that's an accident, go rewatch the odin fight
This is not Secret Ending, Just Post-credits scene.
I hope this will be the game of the year it deserves goty
Me too. No other game out this year is gonna top that
9:12 Donald Duck is quaking in his britches right now
Can anyone let Ultima cast "Purgatorium" to see what it is all about?
Holy crap! Ultima is played by prof Xavier from legion. And the same actor who played Danerys brother.
You're telling me that Ultima is Viktor from Arcane and Baines from Doctor Who?
Mind blown.
@@mackielunkey2205not only that, he's also the main antagonist of Xenoblade 3, because he seems to be slowly establishing a monopoly on final bosses
Beating games like these nowadays for some reason gives me the same feeling as a scratch-off lotto winning ticket.
When they walked into the room with Ultima and that organ kicked in, i immediately got Dancing Mad vibes. Another God trying to destroy everything
Is no one going to take about how beautiful the animation is?
Only just now realized the two boys (and pup) at the end mirror Clive and Joshua
Literally just finished the game 5
Minutes or so ago. Wow! Square really nailed this game!
I still would like to have an Omega boss battle. I would like to see this FF's take on it. That would have made a good secret ending along with Leviathan being teased.
Bro’s wish was granted
@@a.lateralus5840double so lol (also think OP regrets that wish now 🤣)
I think Joshua is alive. If he's not, there wont be a book with his name.
Clive is alive and is the one that wrote the book not josh
So far as I see, Clive's side quest with Hippocratus has some dialogue about pen and Clive's desire to write these journey to a book. That's enough hint, it's Clive who wrote that
@@tamapfNo, they’re all dead.
oh my god Soken. that XVI - Prelude before Ultima's death is beautiful.
The entire sequence is so beautiful. God is dead... and so is his world.
God is dead, and we killed him, for the sake of our world and humanity.
@@apollyonnoctis1291We need clive and jill back together in a DLC
Great ending given the themes of this game. Gotta love how it reminds us after seeing these badasses with divine power that they are still human.
With XV leaving a bad taste in people’s mouths, XVI is not only complete but a great palette cleanser.
