In the first video, the battle that occurred and the emergence of the elder Primal Bahamut is what occurred at the end of the first release of FF14. The game initially was quite bad, and rather than just shut down the game, they rebooted the entire thing. Players who were subscribed at the time got to see the world almost end…and then when the game relaunched, they were among the survivors of five years ago. It was a great comeback for a failed game. If you haven't seen "Flames of Truth," it's a great video showing the Calamity.
Hoping to see more reactions for the Final Fantasy games aside from XIV
Can you two check out final fantasy 15 trailers in the future?
Believe y'all would thoroughly enjoy the journey through the game and story. Plus there are tons and tons of folks who'd happily walk along side you both to help guide and clarify when asked. I know you probably have full plates with other content, but just food for thought. Love y'alls vids and reactions.
You guys should really react to marvel rivals. Its such a cool game

wooooooooooooooooooo! i voted for this! gives me chills to see all these trailers again no matter how long ive played the game. =)
need like a dragon infinite wealth japanese karaoke reaction!!!
Definitely worth it for you guys to “journey” through this games story.
You are right in that the lion lady in the last trailer is something not seen before in the other story trailers you have watched.
Final Fantasy started with 5 playable races, each with two physically distinct subraces and male and female models for each. Hyur (human), Miqo'te (catfolk), Elezen (elves), Lalafell (halflings, sorta), and Roegadyn (half-giant, sorta). So players had 20 different options to pick from and then customize to their heart's content.
The game has introduced new races as well as classes along with each expansion. Male and female Au'ra (half-dragonfolk) came in Stormblood, female Viera (bunny folk) and male Hrothgar (lion-people) came in Shadowbringers, male Viera came in Endwalker, and finally the long awaited female Hrothgar released in Dawntrail.
The lion lady (Wuk Lamat) was the first female Hrothgar we had actually seen since the game started. The Dawntrail expansion introduced the ability to play as one, as well as having a number of them as NPCs in the new land we were exploring.
While there are tons of other races in the game, and they regularly add NPC races each expansion, the devs have said they will likely not be making any additional playable ones. Every time they add a race, they have to add 4 versions of it (male and female in each of the two subraces) and make sure all the past and future equipment, fashion items, animations, emotes, mounts, and cutscenes work with the 4 new models. Each additional race just multiplies their workload whenever they need to add new things too. So we are probably not going to get any new ones for quite a while, if at all. But what is available now really covers a wide range of player preferences while making the world feel diverse and alive.
Edit: Fixed the typos. Left the factual error.
I'm the 100th like
love this series, love this game. Probably my 2nd or 3rd fav of the Final Fantasies
It's funny you mention Gaius to be final fantasy Darth Vader, because it reminded me how extremely Star Wars FFXII is in character tropes and music. There's really no good video to react for it, but i figured I'd mention it.
This game alone holds a decade worth of legacy. Played this throughout college all the way to my late 20's. Quit playing after endwalker but its an mmo experience I remember fondly. Floor tank best class.
I said it before and ill say it again, id totally watch you two take the journey that is FFXIV. i dont know how you feel about playing MMOs, but its a lot of fun. if not play, then watch like, all the major cutscenes!
Final Fantasy ALWAYS has advanced technology out of nowhere.
They throw the kitchen sink in often.
Funny enough scifi has always been part of fantasy. Even the magitek the mentioned is technology mixed with magic to give people who can't use magic the same "playing field"
You know, the game has an extremely generous free trial where you can play all the way to the end of Stormblood (so that means all of A Realm Reborn, Heavensward, and Stormblood content) with some social restrictions. It's a ton of reading but well worth it, especially for ftee
I’m sure it’s been mentioned a lot, but would love to see your reactions to the storyline if you’re considering it
Or if you’re considering just playing, would totally join you if you’d want the extra companion xD
Cross server play would make it easy
My work schedule, maybe not so much
While I'm not really an FF player, I'll admit this game looks fucking sweet. I feel an overwhelming urge to give it a try.
The Shaodwbringers and Endwalkers still give me chills. The song in the Endwalker one makes me cry every time. Those expansions were peak story telling. Would love to see you both react to the entire story.
You should check out all the limit breaks from the game, basically each class has an ultimate move
sees Griffin
"I wanna ride it!"
Boy, do I have news for you!
The launch trailers tend to show more gameplay, the official cinematic trailers are higher quality and more story focused. You'll like them more.
I recommend reacting to the Cinematics too at some point.
I also would like to see you React to EverGlow’s Kingdom Hearts: Timeline Series, ‘cause you might need a refresher for KH4.
I really enjoyed the vid peeps!! I feel to get even somewhat better context of this series world and locations, you should also watch the update trailers as well. For example, A Realm Reborn is 2.0, you should also watch 2.1,2.2,2.3,2.4,2.5 which all leads to the next big expansion, Heavensward labled, 3.0 and then so on. It will give you guys a somewhat better appreciation. Of course, always do what you can.
Also, if you guys want to know how everyone survived that first cataclysmic event during A REALM REBORN, you guys should DEFINITELY watch, FFXIV- FLAMES of TRUTH. It's 8 minutes long.
The individuals calling people mortals are not gods, they are fragments of the people that used to inhabit the planet. In their original forms they were immortal and could not die of age. They're goal is to bring back their old world at all costs and have 0 qualms killing everyone else to do it.
15:50 he calls her Kin Slayer which is basically "You're a murder of your people."
I would say if you ever want to get into 14, start with the free trial. It is very generous. If you are a avid novel readers, treat 14 just like that with treating each expansion as another book in a series that is Final Fantasy 14.
If you can, since I doubt you both have the time or energy to devote to a playthrough of FF14, I'd recommend you try and find someone doing a playthrough. The overall story for FF14 is just… So good. Some of the best writing I've seen in a videogame, and appropriate for one of the most influential and important franchises in gaming history.
"didn't have enough dragons" is hilarious since Heavensward is THE dragon expansion lol
I didn't do any of the post Endwalker content as it released, so i am still making my way towards the Dawntrail content, but personally i thought Shadowbringers and Endwalker were peak storytelling.
So uh…having finished DT msq, i can safely say that the "Bitch, please," at the end was very apt.
Had so much fun in Endwalker working on my Island Sanctuary to rank 20 and the Story it has too
I would recommend the community vids. If you don't mind spoilers you should check out the video FFXIV-Close in the Distance (with 1000 singers from the community) posted by Alex Moukala Music here on youtube. It will give you a glimpse into the way we fans/players of FFXIV show our love for the game.
Endwalker ended the Zodiark Hydaelyn Era. The lion lady is a new playable race. In Dawntrail we visit Tural/The New World after spending the last 10 years in the three great continent and adjacent islands and that’s where they live.
If you liked the dragons there’s a good chance (it has been hinted and it is the final large continent that we have yet to visit) the next expansion will take us to Merycidia, the home of the dragons in our world. This new saga looks like it will take us to the reflections of our planet (think of them as parallel realities created as a result of the Zodiark/Hydelyn conflict). Many of them have not suffered the relentless attacks and resets our planet has and are therefore much more magically and technologically advanced than we are so it should be a fun (hopefully) next 10
Years.
FFXIV is like a serial novel/ television/ anime series story all in one package represented in a video game format .
It pays homage to the various games in the franchise but isn't beholden to them narratively speaking nor does it rip off them .
You mentioned how out of place the tech is particularly in the last one , well despite the reputation of being high fantasy and often steampunk-ish , the franchise has on whole , believe it or not is not entirely accurate, with the some having a very cyberpunk or high tech aesthetic or settings , with FF7 , FF15 and even the very first entry FF1 having a heavy technological setting.
I've said before to you guys that these cinematic and launch trailers will never give you the clarity about the story as a whole that you seem to want, especially when you don't watch the 5 patch trailers in between the expansions, you will only be confused and get one-third of the context of the events on screen, if you really are interested, play the free trial which goes up to Stormblood expansion now and no restrictions on play up to level 70 .
Cause believe me there is a market for watch people play FFXIV for the first time, watched plenty of people make reaction videos about the game
If you're interested I've got the CGI, Launch, and Stormblood Plus Patch (shorter story focused) Trailers in a playlist I made a few years back. They're in story order.

'another dickhead god' sums up final fantasy as a series pretty well haha
Dawntrail is my favorite expansion in terms of content. Shadowbringers and Endwalker in terms of story
The lion people racre is called Hrothgar and was added in Shadowbringers but as a male only race, alongside a female only race called Viera.
Players wanted male Viera and Female Hrothgar, so the devs started working on adding them and the male Viera were ready for Endwalker's launch, while the femal Hrothgar were still a work in progress and only appeared in Dawntrail. Viera are originally a race from Final Fantasy 12 and Hrothgar are based on the Ronso from Final Fantasy 10
The March of Progress… wherein the Warrior of Light becomes increasingly hot.
"Final Fantasy's Darth Vader" was actually in FFIV, where main villain Golbez is revealed at the end to be main character Cecil's older brother under the control of a monster of hate and Darkness.
How is your little dog doing?
