endwalker full cinematic please? 😀
"I haven't seen this guy "
That guy is the player character.
The guy in the trailers is known 'officially' as Meteor, he's the guy with the katana and also the male monk in the beginning, he's meant to be the Warrior of Light (the main character/you) in the cinematics.
Great video as always!
The girl in red is technically a spoiler, but… Well, until she reveals herself I suppose she doesn't count as a spoiler ?
The guy in all the CSs is meant to represent the player or you. In this particular expansion they make this clearer by reliving one of these scenes in-game with your character in the place guy. It just a small thing really but it feels so awesome to see yourself in the “trailer” when you get to that part.
Congrats on getting to the end of ARR
"This Japan? Or is this China?" …Well, yes.
That guy is you as character in-game
The "guy" is you, the player character , he represents the Warrior of Light aka the player
The Twelve are their gods, the guy in both shots is a representation of the Warrior of Light- remember in Shadowbringers how you saw all the flashbacks and him swapping between classes? That's him.
You need to do endwalkers
He's the derplander, he's just the model that represents the players in all the movies and when they reveal new stuff
The Stormblood cinematic always gives me cihlls. Well, all the FFXIV ones do really. My fave part in this cinematic is the 6 blows they trade as the camera spins around them quickly. I used that heavily as reference in my own animation.
The monk and samurai are the same guy, the trailer stand-in for us. It's why in the shadowbringers trailer he shifts through archer, to warrior, to dragoon, to monk, then samurai, and finally dark Knight. He was going through every job in order from the original 1.0 final fantasy 14 release
Since you did the endwalker teaser trailer you absolutely need to react to the full trailer now. It's just amazingly good
That guy, that keeps reappearing in cinematics while doing different classes – thats the image of a player character, the one u, me, all of us play in our game.
I would have asked for an Endwalker full trailer because it's insanely hype but if you're playing DO NOT WATCH IT, until you catch up, it's very spoilery and honestly, hits so strong because we know what it's teasing.
The Monk from the beginning and the Samurai at the end is the same person, which is, for the trailer's purposes, the player character. He fills in for us. We call him officially as Meteor or more affectionately "Derplander".
The Twelve were possibly heroes of an ancient age, possibly Warriors of Light or something else, who were deified in legend as a pantheon of gods. If they have modern incarnations, we don't know any of them yet.
Question: Is this China or is this Japan?
Answer: Yes.
"this trailer is so epic" just wait till you see the shadowbringers trailer and the endwalker one as well. also the person front and center of the trailer usually depicted as one of the jobs in ffxiv, in arr he was a war, heavensward a drg, stormblood monk and samurai, its your character (the warrior of light) being shown, so anytime you see "this guy" we call him derplander, its your representation in the trailer
It's definitely been said already, but the male Caucasian with the brown hair, while he switches his hairstyle and clothes around each cinematic, represents the Player's character. He's essentially the posterboy for FFXIV and has been in 90% of the game's CGI cinematics. Only one he's not in is the Flames of Truth cinematic. But yeah, his slow aging and getting rougher around the edges represents our journey through the now 10 year epic, longer if you were a legacy player from 1.0.
The main character in all of the trailers is all the same guy. He's the representation of the players, the Warrior of Light.
In terms of the geography, Doma is more like China, Hingashi is more like Japan. But the culture is a mix between the two.
This is actually Japan AND China… And the Middle East… And Northern Africa… And Thailand… And India… And yes
Man, this makes me want to get into FFIV. If only I wasn't already juggling Destiny and EVE Online, haha. I've heard the story is phenomenal though.
Oh also, if you haven't seen Astartes, can you do a reaction to that?
Actually the main guy you keep seeing in the trailers is a representation of the player.
