Riding home, on the trailers 😉
Remember, 1.0 was 5 years before ARR and the calamity caused by Bahamut. The scene with the pipe like airships is from the battle at Sivertear Falls if I remember correctly (think Keeper of the Lake). When Midgardsormr wrapped himself around the Agrius and brought it down. When we were waiting for the launch of Final Fantasy XIV this was the trailer we watched over and over as the excitement built, only to have the actual gameplay be really terrible. Some of us struggled to stay loyal to the game and those that did through the bitter end and the long months until ARR was released actually have our character's names listed at the end of ARR. For me, the 1.0 trailer was the best, just because it was the one that stirred my heart for my next big adventure in Final Fantasy after playing FFXI for years. Soken became the lead musical director with the revamp of 1.0 to become ARR. Also, 1.0 is the ONLY time you ever hear "The Warrior of Light" have a voice actor and speak.
I thought that Matoya was skin riding Y'shtola 1000%… Legit! I mean it made sense going into Shadowbringers, and I thought that area at the time was like Gridania or something. Only let down in the whole expansion for me was that wasn't the case. I never let Y'shtola live it down. " "Master Matoya" "

I'd put endwalker High A or low S tier
It's hard to appreciate the endwalker trailer if your new because it's essentially the culmination of our years playing the game leading us to this point
seeing Ardbert in 1.0 and 2.0 trailer is so nostalgic
goo goo
Stormblood's trailer is like Stormblood itself. First half is really l… eh, whereas the second half is really good
what make 1.0 trailer great for me is how it depict the fight between Midgardsormr and Empire that we 2.0 and so on player cant experience it, we just told by in game msq
For me ARR HW and SHB are all S because they all nail the pacing music and mix from battle scenes and lore scenes and new stuff reveals
1.0 is a B because of weird pacing sometimes
SB is a B too because it was just showing off cool stuff coming in the next expansion nothing much going on
EW is a C because even if its great fan service its honestly not that great as a stand alone trailer
Did rich knew those characters from the first cgi were ardbert and his gang?
At the same time we got Heavensward, WoW got Warlord of Draenor. Think about it.
My list
S: Shb, ARR, End
A: Hward
B: Sb
C: 1.0
Shadowbringers is one of the best trailers of all time. Endwalker's is damn good, but it's just missing something compared to ShB
Tbh, all the trailers are S tier.
My personal standings:
S – Shadowbringers
A- ARR, Endwalker
B- Heavensward and 1.0
C- Stormblood
1.0 gets a bit of a pity boost being the earliest and having to hook new players. Without that it would be C. Still all of them are very good and even the lowest I feel is strong. For ARR if it was the coils version, I'd give it S, but the actual trailer has a pretty low key second portion which is fine, but kind loses the thunder of the 1st part. Stormblood's weakness, I think, is being divided into two pieces and that makes its narrative a bit confusing.
I love all trailers but shadowbringers is the most ive watched, almost everyday once or twice until today. Gotta love dat one.
What's with Rich's hat? It's doing weird things.
I've been playing since ARR and I still think Answers is the best CGI trailer that Square have ever made.
It tells a full & completely emotional story without you needing you to know anything beforehand.
Shadowbringers > Heavensward / ARR > Endwalker > Stormblood / 1.0
oh shit, is Rich seriously considering playing FFXI? that would be legit.
S- ShB, HW, EW
A-ARR
C-1.0
F-SB
I really really hate Stormblood as a whole.
Nope, Shadowbringers is the best.
