I don't know any easter eggs, but honestly i wouldn't be surprised if Yoko Taro didn't put some in Nier raid/storyline, that we haven't see yet 🥴
This easter egg isn't hidden at all – in fact it is a boss in Keeper of the Lake: Einhander.
It is a nod to a game called Einhänder which was published by Square for the PSX in 1997. Being over 20 years old only a few people still know that game but I certainly had a chuckle when I fought that bird. The striking feature is that Einhander keeps getting new weapons that it holds in its claws just like the Fighters in Einhänder.
Later in the Dungeon when you fight against Midgardsomr you face another bird again called Astarea carrying the shield generator. This is another nod to Einhänder since Astarea was one of the fighter craft you could chose (along Endymion Mk II and III)
I’m gonna level up my lalafell so I can go into that house 😛
tbh, the entire game is one big easter egg for the FF universe.
Don't know if it counts as an Easter egg, but the other day I entered my room in the Crystarium and found a shoebill on the table.
Also, in the arena for O2, looking up you can see tonberries and a couple mandragoras
Hoping for a part 2 already!
I really want player versions of the Dwarven furniture. Properly sized furniture for my Lalafell's apartment! You've already made it, Square, let me put it in my room.
I thought Siegfried would spawn to everyone, I did that fight only one time and I fought him. Maybe I am lucky.
hey zepla, thoghts on ffxiv vs new world?
I'm surprised that the shoebill didn't show up here. And how it shows up in your inn room after the msq and just stares at you. Still not sure what that's all about…
I have one question : where did you get that flying carpet? Cause it looks amazing
There is also a few more, after the Omega quest you can find Omega and Alpha in certain zones, also some (idk if all) of the level 80job quests change the world, like on Dancer you can find Ranaa in Kugane and for Samurai you can find the "cowboy samurai" training at the school in Kugane
AH they DID do something with Edda! Now I have to run off to the Deepcroft and find out what! Many thanks for the spoiler warning.
As a WHM main, I couldn't help but be concerned about this insider lalafell who was missing spells on his hotbars…but I just noticed that the screen is cropped, so maybe they are to the side.
The skies clear up after defeating Lorelei in the Sirensong Sea, so you can use Return and explore the dungeon when it's nice a sunny out
I remember posting about the Fat Cat in the Skalla dungeon but had never figured or found that it was due to a fed Miqote in the party
Huh a place only Lalafells can go… Perfect! thanks to you we've found the perfect place to plot our takeover of Eorzia, away from the prying eyes of the tall races 😛
They don't have to be well fed on Skalla! I see it all the time as the only miqo in my party and I've had everything to 80 for a long while so I save my food for raids and I see it every time. I don't know it wasn't popping for you if they weren't well fed 😮 I went through with a group on loop trying to get the seal minion and I was the only miqo in the party. In all 30+ runs I saw it every time and I hadn't eaten once… It was in those runs I learned it wasn't something everyone got 😮
Also, the Lyna minion will sprint up to the Mystel minion and salute, she will also wipe her eyes as if she was crying 🙁
Wind up Magnai and Sadu will fight each other.
Anyone know how the Pixie Fountain easter egg works? Like does a player have to have the AFK chair for X time and/or the wait resets when someone shows up? Because I've been sitting next to them in the fountain for almost an hour and they've not done anything 🙁
I remember going in to that Dwarf house in Kholusia (I'm Lala main) and I immediately wanted to go out. My claustrophobia hit me hard LOL
It's so cool to see th minons fight. The only one I knew of was these two.
Wind up – Louisoix and WInd up – Bahamut also start fighting if they are near each other. The Wind up Bahamut is from a soundtrack Final Fantasy 14 A Realm Reborn Original Soundtrack Blue-ray Disc, first run print only.
Your hair looks nice today, Zepla. ^_^
Not sure if this is an easter egg or not but in Shirogane, sometimes, at the top of the jump puzzle lighthouse you will find a moogle-bird.
OMG the lalafell house is so cutee
2:00 a true Gentlemen of Light
I wish him safe travels on his return to relevancy
The Lyhe Mheg easter eggs nearly got my screenshot booted from a contest because it was assumed to be modded. We ran a bunch of people through the zone until we figured out how I managed to stumble upon that. XD
Other fun things I've seen over the years:
– Ultros minion will also dance with Calca and Brina, but it's evidently not as consistent?
– The Fat Chocobo Hatchling minion will sniff the air if a Culinarian walks by it.
– Deftarm will routinely walk up to the Firmament Skybuilder boards to look for things to do.
– T'kebbe (pink Miqo kid) in Idyllshire will sometimes look to you while her friends race around the fountain and tell you betting odds. o_o
I personally love how trust characters react to a certain mechanic on the final boss in Dohn Meg. Thancred runs a small distance before just yeeting over the gap, Alisae sprints it with a snarky remark, but my favorite is Urianger who considers the mechanic for a second and just teleports across the whole thing. I didn't cover everyone, but I like how that mechanic shows everyone's different personalities.
I don't know if it's still there now but at what point you could see a Lunar Whale lurking in the distance in The Sea Of Clouds during special weather.
Oh! I do remember there is an NPC named Modest Mouse in the Peaks and yes he does use the phrase "Float on." I think there is also an Immodest Mouse too but I don't remember where he is. You can also sometimes encounter random retainers doing their tasks.
dunno if it egg or not but you can buy canopus guisarme from maelstrom company wich reference to Tactics Ogre series,i belive here much more stuffs like that 🙂
Shiva EX – after duty completion, a snowman appears outside the arena
still upset that you couldn't flip the doom train like sabin does. THAT would've been a great easter egg/reference to FF6
I highly appreciate this!😁😁😁😁
Oh damn, I think I got Siegfried my first run of O5! I was like “who is this guy”
Zepla is so pretty <3..
The boss ability 'Garish Light' which Petrifies you if you're facing it when cast, is a Phantom of the Opera reference. The song goes: "Turn your face away, from the garish light of day."
Did anyone saw void ark sailing around in the background?
In endwalker they could add a red car just floating by the moon occasionally.
I love stuff like the Lalafell house and small FF refrences, more of them make the game feel so mysterious sometimes.
Awesome! 😀
