So, the Queen Eternal has to be the most advanced machine ever built in FF history eh?
Man, while I know it would never happen, I would LOVE to see the FF14 collab come back to PSO and this to be added as a fight in ngs lol. Absolute pipe dream, but man setting aside my massive bias towards robots, this genuinely might be my favorite trial in the game. A lot of really fun and cool looking mechanics.
I've seen people calling Sphene a "copy/paste Emet" already but I feel like you'd have to be painting in pretty broad strokes to think that way. The biggest difference between the two being just how remorseful Sphene is about what she's doing. Emet didn't feel bad about his actions to the very end. He said so just before he poofed for the second time. Sphene on the other hand declares her hatred of the queen she was based on because it turns out being created from a kind woman's memories makes large-scale genocide harder to do. She even goes so far as to delete those memories and reduce herself to the unfeeling Queen Eternal just so that inherited kindness won't stop her from doing what she needs to anymore.
Me: (Sees video) "Oh cool someone who didn't show the final boss"
Me: (Clicks on video) "oh god damn it"
Y'know if you're gonna cover up it with a thumbnail and add text to genetically call it the final boss and then include spoilers with the music… Without a warning.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
The more I hear this I'm pretty sure this is a "happy" necron theme. Fitting. Well played.
2:13 why did my eyes become watery!!!!!!
Gives me so many apex of the world vibes
This song really hits a form melancholy that I love.
We now have a balance in the X.0 final boss category. We now have:
– 2 individuals from a warmongering nation with access to deific powers (Gaius, Shinryuu)
– 2 old men with a vision (Thordan, Emet-Selch)
– 2 girls packing reality-warping firepower (Endsinger, Queen Eternal)
I didn't expect GRAND CROSS OMEGA in a normal trial. That's a new one.
Has anyone else noticed something similar to the Azem Symbol at the top of the Key to the Dimensions?
When ChatGPT advances too far
At the beginning of the song, I thought it was a remix of Jenova's theme lmao.
First glance at this boss and I was reminded of the final boss of Xenogears
I'm kind of impressed by how much better of a final boss this was then EW's overall.
The only thing Endsinger did better was the final burn phase.
"Are you still alive?"「まだ生きていますか？」でportalを思い出した
そもそもエターナルクイーンとGLaDOSって共通点多いんだよな、人格のコピーってところとか良心消してるところとか
BEST SONGG
Man, can't stand the writing at this point, but this song is doing so much work to lift up the story and fight.
What a spectacular fight and song!
This song goes so hard I almost forgot how sad I was during the end of the expansion.
Dawntrail spoilers/Lore speculating:
Oh yeah, inter-shard conflicts and the ramifications of the Ascian's actions are definitely going to be the next major story arc.
Given what we know of the Shards as of now, 7 have been Rejoined, 1 more being the Void, and another being the First. With 4 shards unaccounted for, and the known timeline of events thanks to the lore, we can safely assume that Alexandria's Shard (and that of Living Memory) is likely one of the 4 remaining Shards we haven't visited as of yet.
My only singular complaint about this boss is that we have to wait until 7.1 for the EX version of this trail.
God-tier theme and fight for an F tier character.
Something I love about this is that Sphene doesn't have a proper boss name.
She's just the Queen Eternal.
While normally we can associate a bosses ost with them exclusively
Does this OST belong to the WoL or the Eternal queen? It feels like a back and forth between you two. Techno parts being EQ, where the gentler parts, as well as the flare at 2:13 are definitely WoL
I need more. Can't wait for the ex.
First time running this trial, and the entire group died in the first minute. We were not expecting Black Hole from Zeromus to return so quickly. Then everything that happened AFTER? Fuck me im scared to see what they came up with for EX
Man i finally made it and finished story, and its hurts. Yoshida, you said it was going to be a chill vacation, damn it T_T
イントロでラヴォスコア戦を思い出しちゃう
Put this game on hold for a month or so to play 76. Servers are congested anyway and the slow ass start kinda turned me off. How are we still reading text for needless quest filler for the biggest mmo in 2024? ESO is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT 💯 % voice acted.
I liked how Endwalker was about the fact that pain is inevitable in life, but Dawntrail was about finding the people that make life worth living and remembering the good times we had with them. 7.0 MSQ had some clunky portions but it was the most human story we’ve ever gotten and it was very touching
What’s the motif that starts at 0:59? It’s so so so familiar but I don’t remember
Someone at square plays warframe. The boss gives out orokin / prime frame vibes
Sphene is definitely an alternate take on Garnet/Dagger if she never met Zidane (Wuk Lamat being the Zidane of this expansion).
Instead we get alternate version of Kuja being Zoraal Ja coming in contact with her instead. She ends up being a mix of Garland and Brahne now.
That "Random Bullshit, Go" attack during the final phase got me every time. idk if i somehow trigger the acceleration bomb (I've delt with them enough), but I always eat a 1-2 hit knockout.
I know it doesn't really matter, but I still really want to know what reflection Alexandria is from, number wise.
