Dawntrail Story in 11 Minutes – FFXIV



ty for watching!
This is my tribute / video / POV of dawntrail and showcase its story/journey in a shorter way. I honestly have an attention span of a mouse, so i really don’t pay attention to the nuances that much.
SO THIS VIDEO MIGHT NOT BE 100% ACCURATE.

  1. I Finished this Video A Week Ago after I finished the story and have given about 2 Weeks to see when i should post this. ( MIGHT BE A TAD EARLY)

    I WAS STUCK BETWEEN WANTING TO BE THE FIRST DO THIS TYPE OF VIDEO AND WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO FINISH! AAAHHH!

    anyways…

    As many people will agree, the story is very straightforward and predictable. The Characters / Scenarios had so much potential to be interesting and ALOT more fun to follow. Towards the end of the expansion, I was like…. "wtf i thought it was going end. WHEN WILL IT END?" if it gets to that point it MEANS YOU AIN'T HOOKED ENOUGH.
    SO WHY NOT CHANGE IT A BIT!

    I have Tiktok brain and can't pay attention to dialogue so this video will not be 100% accurate.

    also I used a bunch of One Piece Music because this expansion gave off similar vibes. I was going to turn off revenue for this video anyways due to the amount of cutscenes used for this video. I did get copyrighted and I'm fine with that! because IT HITS DIFFERENT WITH THIS KIND OF MUSIC YKNOW!

    There are a bunch of subscription based sites that allow me to use certain music + effects that i really would like to use but cannot afford to use them right now. LIKE IMAGINE I COULD USE ALL OF KONOSUBA MUSIC, okay maybe i still can. So if you would like to support I have a Patreon!

    Thank You!

  2. Great editing, lovely work, i loved it!!!!!!!!

    If i may try to give constructive critisism on the quanity of saturation, contrast and bloom it sort of distracting, but i understand that's your personal preference and thats okay.
    I advocate a little more for the intended visual expression by the original artists, so perhaps a balance?

    Anyway that will always be your choice, keep doing what you do! And count me as subscribed!

  3. I finished the MSQ other day and it really felt like this should have been two separate expansions. I was ready for things to be done when Wuk Lamat became Dawnservant. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed part two, but it seems like it was a completely different story.

  4. My biggest concern was that Estinien had enough money to last him for a good while, but knowing his spending habits, it'd only last him for a week at most with the Pelupelu.
    No wonder we never saw him up there.

    My honest thoughts? I liked Wuk Lamat when I didn't know her, I got tired of hearing 'peace and happiness' for the umpteenth time, I'm sad that the villainous claimants weren't fleshed out more carefully, and I'd really like my vacation to start in the next patch and have nothing to do with that furball ever again. Wuk Lamat may be the one and only character in this series that I hate AND will never forget. 😆

  5. I feel like praising Dawntrail in any way is spitting on all the hardwork the previous devteams poured into the earlier expansions. Some are even saying it's not "as bad" as ARR. Which I played launchday by the way. ARR had not only better world building tenfold, a better story tenfold, better voice acting across the board tenfold, better class quests (Role Quests are Hildabrand without the Hildabrand). The entire expansion of Dawntrail really feels like a humiliation ritual to Square. Like someone is being blackmailed. The voicework was phoned in across the board too, I had to switch to Japanese for the first time and that is just a bandaid to the problem. Characters don't even act like themselves, specifically the twins. None of the writing makes sense start to finish. The 14 cultists will defend it at every turn as well, as if they want more mediocrity. Stormblood wasn't even remotely this bad, in fact Stormblood was not that bad at all, it was a good 7. This isn't even close to a 7 it feels like a 5. I miss the Stormblood launchday fun of being stuck in line at the Raubauhn boss even. My only positive is the music and dungeons are pretty solid. That is about it. If the raid tier doesn't show anything significant I think they should cut this one short and rush the next expansion out.

  6. 7 trials?! Sheeh. No wonder that half of the story felt so long. It probably would have flowed better if it was just a simple 3 to 4 trials. Great video regardless, and great use of the one piece orchestral themes. (and I agree Erenville's mom was quite hot)

  7. I appreciate this. I've played since 1.0 and this is the only story that I couldn't bring myself to get through. I started skipped cutscenes a few hours in. Now I can say I know what happened, lol.
