Hironobu Sakaguchi, the man who doesn’t understand the concept of sleep and also the man who created Final Fantasy, zoomed through FFXIV Stormblood in ~3 days.

The 'Fall and Rise of FFXIV in China' Episode 2 will be released on Saturday – 24 hours from now. Sorry for the delays, translations took longer than expected
Want more of my coverage on Sakaguchi playing FFXIV:
Sakaguchi beats ARR: https://youtu.be/1fPL0fqyX88
Sakaguchi beats HW: https://youtu.be/zp8Tn8Nz3TI
To avoid confusion he means he beat Stormblood in 3 days. Not all the content until then. That took 25-28 days. It is possible.
3 days? Plot Twist, maybe he is skiping the cutscenes xD
i glad your enjoying and learning more and more about ff history and their devs
i did 3.3 in the middle of the night it took over 30 min. to get a group but i didn't mind was a good setting to wait in.
Sakaguchi-sensei take a break! Haste will make waste of you! Can one man love a game that much!?
Namazu… Every time I saw one I wanted a pot, some frying oil, and cornmeal for a catfish fry. In my defense, I wasn't the only one! Cirina of the Mol in the Azim Steppe is always thinking about catfish buuz (a real life Mongolian stuffed-and-steamed bun) whenever you take Gyoshin to talk to the Mol during the Namazu beast tribe quests.
Most FFXIV content creators: "He's not going to make it through the story before Endwalker drops. There's not enough time."
Sakaguchi: "MSQ goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR~"
Think about this, Final Fantasy 1 was the last ditch effort to bring Square Enix back in the day!
FF14 1.0 shit the bed, FF14 2.0 brought it back from the brink again!!!!!
ofc hed love it, i for myself played all ff games… and ARR part for this one felt like FF12… i enjoyed it so much with that vibe…, FF Father would have the same feeling… if you don't come from FF is not the same feeling, because there is no way to compare it… but if you come from previous FF games there are so many ways to feel it.
Appreciate you covering this. It's amazing to see he's enjoying it as much as we do.
Its funny that they say how is he going fast. I will tell you, tank privilege baby. Fast queues all way. 😂😂
Which gshade preset are you using?
this video was great! I liked hearing your thoughts cause even though i see his tweets, it's hard for me to grasp exactly how he's going through it so i really like your view on things
I love this video! I’m so glad you’re doing this, it’s so heartwarming <3 and super glad you have the screenshots and reference photos (also I’m sorry for being annoying because it doesn’t really matter but azim steppe is pronounced step not steep, sorry sorry!)
The fact that he's wearing the WoL set… SoS is gonna destroy him.
I hate namazus with a passion, all because of the rubber gloves sound effect they have. From the first moment I heard it it made me feel sick and no matter how good they written them (I did all the beast tribe quests) I still can't stand them. Got autism so might be a sensory thing but still namazus are the worst.
Saka is a legend, I bet he is very happy with how FFXIV how turned out so far, especially the narrative 😁
That's wild. I've multiple alts and my fastest time from 2.0 to 3.4 was a week. That was with knowing tricks to get around ARR zones faster, tank queues, and picking up quests I know I'll need to do later in post 2.0 while doing MSQ. I have the advantage of previous experiences.
I admit, I did mess around in pvp and chill on my Main character half the time. But if I didn't, I'm sure it'd take me at least 4 days to go from 2.0 to 4.0 even with the shortcuts that I know of. Yet this guy does it all blind in 3 days?
That's wild.
You become from a wow refugee to ffxiv newsflash channel to me lol.
I think I'll hold watching these videos bc im not catch up with all of shadowbringers, just finished 5.0 and even if this videos are from the journey of Sakaguchi and is not on shadowbringers you always spoil things to come. Maybe ill watch later idk.
I have been seeing this (thanks to people translating his tweets) and the only thing I can think is that meme from star wars commando with "your tactics confuse and frighten me, sir" about the speed this man moves through the msq lol
He did hint that his game that came out recently was his last so he may be heading to retirement and have some time! It's a shame he made it only for Apple.
My offline life prevents me from being "hooked" but I do play any free time I have. I think it's really cool someone this knowledgable in FF games enjoys this, I'm not sure you'd see this ever in any franchise that I know of.
hes a mad man! XD
Quaz! noo! spoilers man. what if he is watching bro.
Little did we know Sakaguchi is a pro gamer 😅
Sakaguchi is a progging G O D
Seeing him do 5.3 is gonna be absolutely incredible! I cant wait!
he do be cutscene skipping maybe
Does sakaguchi-san stream?
I love how you call him the OG warrior of light my heart this so wholesome <3
3 days sounds about right if you just pound through the MSQ(maybe less) – Not really a "lul no sleep" endeavor.
So…We had Yasumi Matsuno collab for the Ivalic Raids, Tetsuya Nomura collab in the Eden Raids, Yoko Taro for the Nier raid……..Are we gonna see a collab with Hironobu Sakaguchi? Dare we dream?
Omega first appeared as a superboss in FF5 along woth Shinryu. FF1 & 2 Dawn of Souls was released way after that. Also Emet-Selch is pronounced with a k.
But yeah, Sakaguchi's straight up flying through MSQ and I love it!
I never thought its possible to finish the entirerity of stormblood expansion in 3 day…. the creator of light sure build different 😎
Hydelyn bless him with full echo buff on all his journey
Watermelon 🍉 kun just chilling at the back.
I understand his feeling, I did the MSQ in 4~5 weeks
Both the circumstances of his playthrough and your commentary are absolutely adorable.
It's so nice to come to this channel every once in a while and find a player completely enamored with the game after having followed you regarding tanking in m+.
Looking forward to EW.
PS: Did you ever manage to finish the sidequest from the frog and the brooms in matoya's cave?
the real footage of sakaguchi playing ff14
https://youtu.be/xuWkvyeAu0E?t=1m48s
Is he retired? how can one have 25h per day to play, lad is insane
That Lyse fight screenshot makes it look like his horns are about to poke her eye out.
He just cast IRL Haste on himself xD
I mean, is there anyone out there that didn't thought after throwing those eyes of the bridge "yea, that's not very deep"
3 days is definitely doable for a normal human being, assuming you've taken the time off work. I think people just got a somewhat distorted view of how long the 4.0 MSQ took because so many were stuck at Raubahn Savage. Once that problem was cleared up it took me 2 or 3 days to finish everything, while doing normal things like eating and sleeping. Shadowbringers was also good chunk longer in comparison, so that also probably skews the opinions since everyone played that more recently.
Still, the man had to be playing for pretty much all his waking hours.
that or he's skipping cutscenesSaw his twitter yesterday. He even logged in just 2 hours before a meeting. 🤣
Hironobu Sakaguchi itself playing and really enjoying the game is a kind of huge 'seal of approval' toward the game
i hope more and more final fantasy fans give ff14 a chances later. the game basically a prove that the franchise is still alive well and kicking.
anyone got a feeling that Sakaguchi might be working on something for FFXIV? I mean he could just love the game, but he's going too hard on the MSQ.
OG Warrior of Light Verses Warrior of Light = Getting Link verse Dark Link vibes.
