  1. yeah, G'Raha fans are a type of fan. lol (I made the mistake of saying I don't like him and got mobbed for it online. o.o)
    That bunny guy I think is named Errenvel or something(i can't remember for sure). I won't say anything to spoiler about him, just know that he is kind of like a zoologist.
    The new place we are going to in the expansion is heavily influenced by South America. If you look at the map you can see how different parts of the world seem similar to Earth and there is some overlap with similarities. ie Eorzea is Africa, Doma is southeast asia, Hingashi is japan, etc.

  2. FF14 has always had 3 Fanfests before a new expansion is released, with the trailer getting longer with each fanfest, so the next one in October will be an extended, but not complete, version of this. Also between the trailer and what was said in Fanfest itself, it feels like there's heavy One Piece influence. Like I get a feeling this is a pirate island, the Warrior of Light is a Corsair or Swashbuckler or some sort of dual-sword wielding character, and we are gonna fight the leader of the island for the right to be "King of the Pirates" so to speak.

  3. Was fortunate to get a ticket to Vegas to see this live in a room full of screaming people, this the first chance I've had to sit down and watch a quieter analysis. Great breakdown as always, Phil!

  4. Great breakdown of the trailer, Yoshi-P's crew have really come a long way with their trailers. I've been playing the game from around 2.3 and have loved it and have been a RDM main since it dropped. I am super stoked for 7.0, the Aztec style they showed and the jungle environment has my interest peaked, and the Corsair/Pirate job that the WoL looks like he is sporting is intriguing. The bun boy you didn't know is Erenville, you meet him in the Endwalker story.

  5. hi Philip and all the people watching. I may give some insight on some stuff regarding the lizard beast in the trailer, with this FFXI video. You only need to watch the beginning. Besieged was when an enemy tribe tried to invade the capital of aht urgan and sometimes the mamool ja, tried to invade the city. at the end of the cutscene you can see a double headed mamool Ja which is Gulool Ja Ja, chief of the mamool ja tribe, which you can also see our hero fighting briefly with him at the ff14 trailer. So basically the original idea comes from 11. Am excited to see the developments if they will be connected somehow to 11 or not.

  6. G'raha Tia is first introduced in the Crystal Tower raid series in A Realm Reborn, which has been made mandatory to progress in the main story since patch 5.3 so you most likely have met him assuming you have at least made it that far, but he isn't a voiced character there so personally I wouldn't blame you for not remembering him. He doesn't really become a major character until much later in the game.

  8. About the tacos. There is a bossfight later in the game where the lyrics are supposedly "beat, the heart of Sabik" but everyone hears "Big Fat Tacos, so big" and it is a huge meme in the community.

  9. Looking forward to your first steps into Eorzea, and hope you have a wonderful time. The FF14 community LOVES getting to watch new players go through the game so i reccomend uploading vods or highlights of your playthrough when you guys start. As for what im looking foreward to the most with Dawntrail, more scenetime for Krile, my favorite of the main cast who gets very little love from the main story.
    Edit: I main White Mage cause it has always been one of my favorite jobs in all FF games.
