Morning all o/
Gaia is, or at least was, an Ascian, so I would assume it's her mask over Ryne's face.
I wonder if that's the actual Cloud of Darkness, or if they are re-using the model for a different entity. From the post Endwalker MSQ we know it should have re-spawned, if no other voidsent consumed it's energy, while it was out.
stepping into Sky for the first time in FFXI is one of my favourite memories of that game. I pray they have those digital floors and the "elevator" that gets you up there too.
10:15 I think he's saying "Hetsaro" since he's in their zone, but he's not pronouncing the o as prominently as every other character to ever say "Hetsaro" has.
I think Koana is saying "Hetsarro" with an accent. It's the kind of line that will drive you mad if you try to figure it out.
Also I wanted to express my appreciation and absolute appreciation for Kyle's "Part Time" reference. I was thinking the same thing and the trailer line read of that was so much better than the bad cut they used in the film it made the movie even worse.
So the gloves on Prishe are most likely a transformed state as she holds great power within herself (it's part of the reason she still has the look of a child cause she's older than she looks) I say this cause in the patch art shot you see her normal hands in the pose she takes so it could be like a battle mode sort of thing. And yes Shadow Lord was the OG Big Bad of 11 who wanted to wipe out all the other races so his kind could rise up. (Fun fact his people's race would technically be the ancestor race of the Roegadyn though back in 11 there was only males much like the Mithra (ancestor to the miqo'te) were only females in game.) But yeah seeing all the locales in the 14 engine just brought back so much nostalgia for me as an 11 player.
I thought he said ixal but no idea
good morning all o/
I heard the vanadiel march at the start of the trailer and immediately paused and prepared myself for a nostalgia blast! …and also contemplated picking my xi sub back up lol
Isn’t the Hetso the name of the Mi’qote in Turali? I think he’s shouting that he will save that tribe of people whom he originally disliked for abandoning him as a child if you remember him talking about that, suggesting a character growth moment and that his part of the story might focus on them.
Your reaction to "Are we just going to be sad forever?" killed me. lol
This was the first trailer where I was like what the hell even is this. No idea what to expect.
Final Fantasy XI that music is inbeded in my brain forever. It will always hold a special place in my heart
Thancred: how do I know that kid is min…
[Ryne gets possessed by an Ascian]
Thancred:
… ok that kid is mine
Actually, what surprised me the most about this trailer, is how badass Hildi looked in this trailer. Like what, the dude gets a cool looking coat and slowmotion walk scene? I'm hooked.
I'm looking forward to trying to explain XI lore through chat to Kyle- "Okay so… the Roe's from Xi have tails, not to be confused with the tale keeper… and they reincarnate because the city they should go back to is inside of itself? that doesnt make sense. No? i got it right? what do you mean i got it right?"
People forget Koana was abandoned by the Hetsaro tribe (cat people of Tural) when he was a kid, it's pretty given he's getting some proper closure from his trauma
I believe Koana said he would save the Hhetsarro, which are the Miqote in Tural. We briefly meet a tribe of them during MSQ while fixing the train line. They were worried about the roneek and other wildlife going crazy because of the train, and Erenville said that Koana could probably stop by and figure out a solution, so it's probably why he's here. I'm assuming we're going to get some closure for Koana, since the whole reason Koana detested Turali tradition is because it was one of the traditions of the Hhetsarro that saw him abandoned as a small child.
