Endwalker Trailer Reaction:
This trailer was absolutely incredible. I was super worried about where the story was going to go after 5.3, but the ending of 5.55 and the trailer have absolutely hyped me up, I’m soooo excited to see where it all goes and how they end the story.
FFXIV Shadowbringers was just so good, I would go so far to say 5.0 was perfect that I’m so excited to see what they come up with in Endwalker, this trailer definitely leaves you with more questions than answers, I’d love to know where you think the story will go from here!
I also may have called Alphinaud, Alisaie multiple times, I’m sorry haha… don’t watch trailers when you’re tired!

I think I was on 5.3 when you started, and you've finished the MSQ before I did, LOL!
Im sorry did u seriously mix up Alphi and Ali in the beginning?! x'D Alphi is the Sage xD
"Oh man! Alisae's a sage?!"
Marty – you just pulled an Estinien. You're lucky Alisae wasn't there to hear it.
your reactions and your genuine excitement are as always just the cutest
I never watch trailers, as I like to go in blind, but I'll be back to watch after I played Endwalker O//
Been watching since your first day, and just gotta say….. Welcome to the waiting room.
Glad to have you here.
Congratulations on making it to the waiting room
There is just SO much in this trailer, along with little bits I never noticed on the first half-dozen times watching. Things like "There's more land behind Sharlayan in the zoom in.", and "The Shadowbringers lyrics sneak in during the transition from G'raha to Y'shtola."
Also it's fun to see what people pick up on. I was really excited to see Thancred and Urianger were in Radz-at-Han in Thavnair, since you see references to those all the time as a crafter/gatherer.
I also think I've become more adept at reading "Eorzean" on these maps. 😀
If you download the Endwalker benchmark it acts as sort of a "second trailer", AND you can load your own character model in place of the default WoL so it feels a lot more like it's about your story 😀
Moon's haunted Marty! It's SO wild having been around since your….third day? And now you're all caught up to Endwalker :') Sorry I haven't been super active in the Discord lately or dropped by on my X'aerhan alt, I've been trying my hand at Shadowbringer Savages and Extremes!
Also you calling Alphinaud – my son – Alisaie, dealt me psychic damage 😭
FF4's team goes to the moon in a Lunar Whale (yes like the mount from fan fest this year) and runs into enemies and a whole society that lives up there. I have a feeling our journey to the moon will involve references to that. It already has a few nods, like the Lunar Whale mount, as well as our main character going from a dark knight in Shadow Bringers to a paladin in End Walker just like 4's main character Cecil, as well as Einstein sharing some character traits and some general character arc events with 4's Dragoon Kane. As a fan of the FF series in general I love when they make nods and references to their other games. 🥰
Im really interested to see the Sharalayan excuse to not get involved. Corruption perhaps?
Did you noticed, that yshtohla is about to run again a desk, when she leaves the council?
Just a heads up since this is your first expansion launch: unless they are using this extra time to buffer the server space, there is going to be a massive log-in clog during early release and primary launch.
Technical, when you first met Krile. She asked Alphinad how his Sage training was going. So really, we had that be a huge spoiler a while back.
Welcome to the waiting room Marty! Made it just in time 😁
"Alisaie's a Sage?"
A certain Dragoon mistook one twin for the other once. He's on wafer thin ice with the more rugged one now.
This was such a great way to get hyped about the new expansion for sure. They give you just enough to crave for the expansion. Tho I am curious to see your reaction to the Launch Trailer for Endwalker as well now. Since there so much in that one that just give me the chills.
One day I woke up and became a Zenos enjoyer all of the suddden cause I've been watching this everyday. Be careful, it may happen to anyone! 😂👀👀👀
We know nothing of anything and it’s amazing!
TO THE MOON!
All the voidsent and most of what is narrated is directly from the Aumarot dungeon.
NEVER DOUBT THEIR ABILITY TO TOP THEMSELVES!
Ah yes, the Gundam Alphineau reveal.
The singer of architects did an amazing work for endwalker such amazing vocals!
I love how the shell imagery and how the Twin's dad is in the center. It's like a creature hiding in it's shell for safety but by doing so they can't see what's going on outside.
Now imagine living with the hype of the original version of this trailer since EARLY THIS YEAR. Like we only got the full version of the trailer at Digital Fan Fest in May. Instead of two weeks, we've had to wait eight months. It's been beautiful and painful.
Putting some spoiler breaks in here just in case someone watches this video without getting far enough into the story.
All we know about the Moon is that that's where Zodiark went when Hydaelyn split the world. While his power was divided between the various shards, it seems as though his Source portion actually got pulled out of the planet and into the moon, with Hydaelyn taking Zodiark's place at the core of the sundered Source. (This is why the the Sharlayan colony built the Antitower, to descend closer to the planet's core and thus speak directly with Hydaelyn.) So the Moon is definitely bound up with Zodiark, and that's apparently why Elidibus kept going back to it whenever he wasn't messing with things. Beyond that though, you're right, we don't know ANYTHING about the moon or what's going to happen there. It's gonna be awesome finding out though!
If you’re asking about the quality, I think you can do the benchmark that SQE released previously for Endwalker. Sad that the benchmark is applicable for PC players and not PS4 players.
