  1. Final Fantasy 4 was amazing. If you were a kid when you played it, like I was. It was revolutionary. Cecil shedding his Dark Knight to become a Paladin… Pallum and Porum's noble sacrifice. The greatest generation of gaming. This music hit me hard, and when I am not busy in game.. I tend to relax in Bestway's Burrow for the music.

  2. 5:15 …and there, you see his expression change from a smile over lil' buns to shear borderline nostalgic tears once the FF4 music kicks up after the Quest Complete tune ends. 😄

    …Beautiful.

  3. I'm the odd sort that always acknowledged Final Fantasy… but never played them. My first Final Fantasy game was Dissidia on the PSP, but I never touched a numbered title till XIV. I've recently gotten FFVII Remake, so I'll get around to all of them… eventually.

  4. aw, I was hoping you'd show your reaction to the battle theme too! But yes…..FFIV, I think, was my first FF too. It's either that or I played VI first, then went back to rent IV. Either way, it was one of the first two FF games I played, and each time I hear music from either of those games, it makes me shed those nostalgic tears.

  5. FFIV was my first FF and JRPG too, and it remains amongst my favorite games of all time. The music didn’t break me to tears, but I sat there a while just listening with the biggest, stupidest smile on my face.

  6. I personally didn't play 4 until I was in high school and I happened upon the FF4 remake for the DS. 1st time with the game and GOSH DANG did I love it. My 1st proper FF was 7, 8, and 9 but I do have rather vague memories of playing ff1 as a kid at my grandparents home and not understanding ANYTHING. But FF4 truly stole a place in my heart for the series and my love of RPGs and breaking systems just took off from there
    Edit: can't forget Tactics. Even after all these years it still reigns Supreme in my heart. Still haven't played 5 or 6 (pixel remasters not having the extra content other versions had makes it unlikely I'll ever play them or even enjoy them in full…FF5 had a Necromancer job iirc)

  7. I'm unashamed to say that I just teared up a bit, watching a grown man just about break when an element of his youth, an integral part of a series he now loves (and an integral part of a game that served to make so many FF fans) started playing as BGM. Thanks for sharing your nostalgia with everyone KB!

  8. I come from the time before we had FF4 and 6 proper in America. FF4 was FF2 and FF6 was FF3 in the shops. I didn't find that out till later. I remember being so confused when 7 came out. Like why are they jumping from 3 to 7 lol? I played FF3/6 with free game rentals due to good grades at the local rental place. It was the first that I really got into. From there I was hooked and wanted to play the others. Damn…this series has had such a staple in the lives of so many.

  9. You know this expansion has really made me regret that I never got into Final Fantasy until just this year. When I got to that point I was just like "Oh my this music is lovely!" And then later I find out it's a huge nostalgia bomb as grown men and women weep to it.

  10. This was me when I first got the Magitek Armor mount and it played a remix of Terra's theme. I was already feeling the nostalgia from seeing them, but hearing her theme made me cry.

    You can imagine the field day I had in Stormblood with all of the references to FFVI, to the feature in the Omega raids.

    The team really cares about the titles that came before FFXIV, even the ones that came after. There are so many references that it reminds me of better times as a kid.

    (Who else knew "Marques" was a good guy because of FFVI?)

  11. I think I had tried to play FF1, but never got far.

    Seeing someone FF7 was when my interest really got roused, so much so that I dug up an emulator and played the SNES games (4 through 6). I loved them so much that I bought a PS1 JUST to play FF7 and have been an FF fan ever since.

    Just like you, I just stopped and listened in awe when the music started playing. These mad geniuses got us AGAIN.

  12. It's hard to argue against FF4 being my favorite. I've played it all the way through, normally, at least 25-30 times. I use a stationary bike for exercise, and I run randomizer runs (FF4 Free Enterprise) on FF4 while doing this, so I'm not completely bored as just music doesn't work for me.

    Cecil only, grinding to 99 on Mt. Ordeals with the twins to see what they get spell wise, no magic and only items, FF4US and FF4J runs, etc. I played the hell out of that game as a kid and still do run through it once or twice a year on a normal playthrough just due to the nostalgia.

    Hearing the town music, followed by the FF4 battle theme, in this area just broke me.

  13. I was fortunate enough to be born and able to play the first Final Fantasy when it first came out, but 4 is the first I vividly remember from personal memory alone.

    I think the FF XIV devs realized that the Super Nintendo/Super Famicom Final Fantasy games are not only so damn near perfection, but are some of the first Final Fantasy games a lot of people ever played, and what better way to pay homage to the franchise and its fans than to hit the nostalgia button with IV as hard as humanly possible?

  14. i understand how you feel. though it wasn't my first FF game, 4 was such an amazing story QwQ my first official FF game was 3, so whenever i hear Eternal Winds I cry Dx it means so much to me, this game, and i'm glad to see how much it reminds people of their childhoods, their times with FF. Thank you for sharing with us this story KB <3

  15. 7 was my first FF, and it's still near and dear to my heart. 6 was…good, at times, but it just doesn't do much for me. I had to work HARD to bring myself to care enough to finish that one, and I'm so envious of everyone who loves that game so much. But 4, especially the 3D remake, is maybe as high as my second favorite FF. In fact, when Hydaelyn said that we would find "an ally on the moon," my first thought was, "Fusoya?!"

  16. I broke down at the same place, and in that moment I was a kid again. FF 2/4 was my introduction to the series as well. The story just resonated with me. It let me bury myself into a fantasy world that grips me to this day.

  18. In real life I have zero friends who love Final Fantasy and sometimes it feels like I’m the only one who does. But seeing all fans experiencing XIV now has been great 🙏🏻
