200$ her "speaking to the soul" power dissapears or gets limited in someway if she is ever allowed to go to other shards tho. its too stronk in the lore
I also just wanna say, Krile was happy in the trailer, and I'm super happy for her to not be possessed, hostage, imprisoned, sidelined, experimented on, ostricized from her scholarly compatriates, overworked keeping the souls of her friends tethered through comas, underappreciated, dunked on by the Lalafell hater union, having Zenos dougie on up to ask if he can munch on the mothercrystal to maybe, hopefully, possibly kill one of her friends, or being beaten in a footrace by Tataru down several flights of stairs. This shit's art therapy for her lmao.
SO ACCURATE I’m so happy for our girl, she finally FINALLY gets to go out in the field and have FUUUUN 😄 Hot damn, you right Krile spent 90% of her time in the story being overworked, underappreciated, and/or being assaulted. 😢
Now Krile will experience the struggle of being an artist and expected to be paid in exposure for her work instead of money. She will also have to deal with random copyright strikes and have to be scared of the uprising of AI Art created by The Arcadion. AWARE
Dont let the New World MSQ, graphical updates, and Hrothgals distract you from the fact that Yoshi-P told us WE'RE LITERALLY TRAVELLING TO OTHER PLANETS next expansion.
I was a little concerned about the post Hydaelyn-Zodiark saga story, then they dropped Cyberpunk in FF14 and planetary travel. I think we will be fine for the next 10 years. These people are actually crazy, the best kind of crazy.
@@Deode-d4h You mean they just will continue to badly copy/paste from other Square games without care for any lore building or story telling, because the remaining fans will eat it anyway and throw their money in the ever expanding cash shop? Absolutely. Nothing new.
I love how the trailer frames the MC's fight as something that went on all day while everyone else was wandering the town, eating food, flirting and sipping on drinks. Meanwhile the Warrior of Light is on round 12 or something with the nation's king in a dawn to dusk brawl.
"Some of the civilizations in the reflections will surprise you." My money is that Solution Nine is something to do with the Ninth Reflection. As for heritage found, I wonder if that has something to do with the rejoined 12th reflection. That was the thunder calamity.
My money is also on it being on The Ninth. Solution 9 is the name of one of Zidane's Dyne attacks in FFIX, so it could be an adaptation of Terra from that game.
The fact that the moon in Endwalker was the selling point but not the story focal point has made me questionable about everything. There's definitely more to uncover here.
Yeah I’m super happy we’re getting a technologically advanced city. It’s giving a lil bit Esthar from 8, Academia from 13-2 and a liiiiiiiil bit Midargar
I saw it mentioned briefly in your chat but at the very start of the keynote. Yoshi-P briefly talks about the earthquake in Japan at the start of the new year. He expressed his condolences to those lost and that those affected can rise from this and become stronger.
You know how they've been pushing the 'reflection travelling' thing recently, and how Y'shtola in this trailer is looking at the Ronkan ruins and comparing them to Tural and seeing a similarity? I think those futuristic ruins are the creation of an advanced civilization on a different shard that learned how to traverse the rift and built things on the Source. Remember this is the first expansion of a brand new story arc. We set up this new reflection during Dawntrail and possibly travel there by 8.0? Emet-Selch also said the civilizations on some of the reflections would surprise us.
Given the name, Solution Nine (which is also the name of one of Zidane's Dyne attacks in FFIX), my current hypothesis is essentially what you're saying, but more specifically, that the Ninth is facing a crisis and someone there has plans to essentially usurp the Source in order to save the population of the Ninth. In other words, Terra from FFIX, but in FFXIV. lol
After not even being included in the Endwalker key art poster, I'm honestly glad that Krile gets to showcase the Pictomancer job in Dawntrail. Yoshi-P kept true to his promise and gave her a bigger role for this upcoming expansion. Edit: Forgot to specify, but like what Emuney12 already mentioned, I was referring to the EW poster where both Zenos and Tataru were both included, but strangely not Krile. I honestly thought that her debut would've been with that battle with Estinien and the large lizard but what they did was even better: they gave her an entire solo portion of the trailer all to herself. I hope she makes Galuf proud.
@@TheOneGreat yea but check the Endwalker poster again, she's not there. She absolutely played a big part but was never featured on the official poster. Only heresay rumors on my end, so take it with a huge grain of salt, but the artist who made the Endwalker poster didn't include her due to miscommunications. Edit: turns out during a radio interview long ago, Yoshi-P himself made the miscommunication.
@@Emuney12 yeah I was gonna say that YoshiP has been asked by Krile's jp voice actress herself why Krile wasn't in the art in that radio interview lol he just simply forgot and I'm sure he felt bad about it.
39:23 If we don't fight Greg on that bridge... We better at least fight a giant mechanical spider on that bridge. 44:22 I swear, it's the shopping area from Esthar. 1:06:20 Moon Restoration + Moon Housing when?!?!?!? 1:15:35 And they were roommates (ultimate) 1:33:50 The thing that's getting me is the eyes. They're looking so much smokier and intense with the new shader. 1:35:15 The lips blend in so much more naturally with the skin tone and mouth geometry. 1:35:55 Sharper definition makes for less pixel-y textures. They took perfection and just hit the "enhance" button. Also ears got a big boost in detail. 1:37:45 The eyes pop so much more. They're so bright! 1:39:10 The scales look so good now! But they also blend into the face geometry so much more naturally. The sharp eyes and lips also benefit a lot from the shader update. 1:40:17 Still feels a little puffy in the cheeks, but the eyes are so good. She no longer looks like she's been up for 48 hours without sleep. 1:43:18 Hairline is probably the most improved, but you can also get a bit of extra definition in the cheek fur. 1:44:05 The gear looks so good, and the ears are too! Viera noses seem to have lost a bit with the new shader though. Hopefully they refine it a bit so they still show off that button-y bunny nose quality. For what it's worth, I think it's just the shader softening the defining features rather than them having changed the noses too much. 2:01:08 The katakana for Xbr'aal is "Shyu ba raa ru", so the english will probably sound sorta like "Shuh-brawl"
I Fully endorse the use of "And They were Roommates (Ultimate)" and acronym ATWRU, instead of Futures Rewritten (Ultimate) and FRU. Though really, that's what people are gonna be Needing something easy to shout during Advanced Light's Relative Rampancy.
Super loved it, beyond excited. So happy for Krile that she found what she's great at, new jobs look amazing, songs sound amazing, Final Fantasy 2077 threw a left hook that got me even more excited beyond the standard expansion I was expecting. So happy.
A large winged serpent, some kind of mechanical sentinel, and yet the scariest thing I saw was the buff sabotender. Jesus that thing looks like the stuff of nightmares lmao.
Jesse, I've been watching since your Witcher 2 series way back when, and even probably before that. Recently I've felt nostalgic and wanted to re watch the W2 series. When the page loaded, I couldnt help but be so happy that you had finally broke the 1m subscriber line. You are no doubt one of my favorite personalities on this platform. Much love to you, may you continue to find success and fulfillment.
Love the new part of the theme song towards the end where picto is revealed...Sokengod! Don't really love picto, but my daughter does, so she's going to play through DT as picto and I'm going to play viper. :) Was kinda surprised about hrothgals, figured that wouldn't come until after the graphics update...maybe more towards 8.0.
I do very much wonder who built Solution 9. It looks like nothing we've seen so far, it doesnt look Allagan, it doesnt look Ancient, it doesnt look Loporrit, it doesnt look Omicron. Who built something THIS advanced without anyone else noticing???
'puts tinfoil hat on' I'm wondering if Solution 9 is actually a colony of people from a different planet, much like how Midy found our world and settled here. Maybe another world on the brink of destruction sent out 'colony ships' to as many worlds as they found that could be compatible and it was the 9th ship that found ours. (Kinda like how the moon was gonna be used as a colony ship to travel to other worlds to try and find a safe one)
This expansion is the only thing really keeping me going...ok a few others too! Super hyped, Krile a FF5 character using an FF6 job, finally she gets to fight too!
Keep in mind they brought back Ardbert's VA during for latest raid. theres no way they'd do that for just 1 fight. So if Solution Nine is related to the Ninth shard, then odds are pretty good we'll be meeting the 9th's version of Ardbert. Looking at the artwork for the expansion, i wonder if that's the white haired Miqo'te?
My theory for the future city, its a civilization from one of the other shards that managed to figure out cross realm travel. If it is the case, then it would give a reason for Yshtola to be interested in what is going on here. the future tech can be explained by the fact that that world wouldn't have been affected by calamities, so it could have kept growing the entire time, PLUS it would check off another of Emet's final words. Specifically the part about how the civilizations on some of the shards would surprise us.
Funny you should mention Mhachi, I was doing the RDM level 70 quest and just before the end of it you come out on a vista that if you look up has a pyramid decorated with the same glyphs as you see in the art of Solution 9.
When looking at the job trailers, pay attention to the character model. When the character gets a yellow/gold hue aura particle, it's a GCD. When it's a blue hue aura particle, it's an oGCD
Just pre ordered today! Super excited! I keep coming back to vids to listen to all the conent that's coming! June can't come any sooner. It feels so far away 😢 i am trying to let everyday go by fast af at this point just to invest so much yijrí
I watched this live and it made me super hype, but rewatching it, the final trailer's Krile part revealing the new job along with the gorgeous music almost made me cry. Lil lady has come so far.
"I want to believe Kate is better." Oh you Sweet Summer child. This Heavensturn had a Quest called 'Unlike a Dragon' and The achievement was 'Next time, on Dragon Bo'
I love the idea of the mask being connected to Azem, more Azem lore pleeeease. But did you notice the Ancient sitting looking over the stage before the countdown? It looked amazing! I think it was the Watcher?
I dont think Azem is involved cause 1) with Hydaelyn/Zodiark done I think that the Ascians/First Ones are done 2) Azem left the Council as mentioned in quests and we (WoLs) are indicated to have part of their soul which would mean Azem is sundered (also it was noted that Emet-Selch was the last of the unsundered) so AT BEST it would be a Fandaniel sort of thing but again see the first part.
Azem is us the Warrior of Light. I don't know why there are comments talking about Azem hiding somewhere. Did Jesse talk about it in the video? If so he's wrong. It's spelled out to us in game that we are Azem.
We figured out the text in one of the scenes from the Solution Nine video, and it showed directions to "Employment," "Elevators" and, most interestingly, "Soul Supply." On Twitter someone mentioned that in FF9 there was a race called the Genomes, and they were basically androids waiting for a soul. Reading into the background and seeing everything they've shown so far, I have a feeling this is what we're working with. I don't think it's going to be a one for one match (in terms of a world trying to merge with the Source) but perhaps they will be written to be actual aliens who managed to flee one of the planets Metion visited and that's why the place is covered in lightning and there's like no sun and such.
Every time I look at the glyph Jesse was analysing, I don't see an Ascian symbol, I see a Dwarf helmet and beard with writing under it. Timeskip norvrandt raid confirmed
I think you did a video like this a million years ago but an updated "here's the story stuff you should play before this expansion" would be awesome, for those of us who haven't been playing all the way through.
Nice to see today, how much he interpreted into the logo of the Arcadion company. Especially since YoshiP said that it will be a 100% FF XIV original and therefore couldn't be anything known ^^
Cerulean deposits was a part of the Blue mage job quest, the Walaquee tribe lived near a location full of Ceruleum that another npc wanted to extract, but the Walaquee held the location sacred
The slide for Heritage Found gives me alternate timeline FF7 vibes. A train under a floating city that's far more advanced than what's observed on the surface? Jenova raid when?
Well... first off, hype af. Remember when Emet said some of the civilizations from the reflection' may surprise you? Who says denizens of the source were the most advanced? Or... for that matter... were the only ones who could traverse the rift? What if one, guided by lets say... an Ascian... were able to move its entire capital city to the Source before their end (rejoining) hit?
ARR and DT Have a similar vibe. One is about a new adventurer trying to find a way in the world, and DT is vacationing. Both on the surface feel very laid back.
This has really got me hyped I was worried this was just gonna be a "holiday" expansion with no stakes but its looking good the hi tech city has me super intrigued.
The more I look at the symbol in the Arcadion artwork, the more it looks like a combination of Elidibus, Emet-Selch and Lahabrea's Ascian sigils. When Lahabrea and Igeyorhm fused together, their sigils fused, as well. It's certainly something to chew on.
I thought the symbol looks like Emmerololth. It has the two horns, the funny hat with stuff coming out of it, big face, and the two hands that have three fingers waving at you. And if you look very closely, it looks like there are some dotes in the neck area. There is also the lines at the bottom that look like the platform under the hands.
The description of the land snear Solution 9/Heritage Found reminds me of the Second Umbral Calamity. The sky was covered in black clouds and people were forced to live underground as levin bolts struck the land constantly for a full year and a day. While the land near S9/HF is described as having thick clouds that block out the sun and being in a constant levin storm. (48:24, bottom description).
It also reminds me of that one region in FFX/FFX-2. Thunder Plains? Given the beast tribe from X, the Pelupelu, are showing up, maybe there will be more nods towards FFX?
they said Koji Fox was gone working on translating but i'm sure he was just rocking back and forth in a dark room anticipating the immediate demand for Encyclopedia Eorzea Vol. 4 after this keynote
Genuine question, that giant crack on the world map representing the Panama Canal. How is that possible? Is it even possible? How does the large body of water called the ocean not filled the crack?????
OMG! I was excited for Viper but Beastmaster looks so cool! I haven't played since I beat Endwalker so I am going to have TONS of stuff to come back to.
@@handlerone5172 "I was excited for Viper BUT Beastmaster looks so cool!" You are saying Beastmaster looks cool with zero game play footage or even hints of what it could be other than the name.
Solution Nine is exciting. Since Solution 9 is one of Zidane's strongest Trance abilities, I'm hoping there's a bit of FF9 influence on the area (Terran perhaps), and it's not just a name reference. We've already got the Viper job as a pseudo-reference to Zidane as well. I'm here for it if that's the case.
The solution nine area gave me Shinra Mako Energy vibes and one of the images (Heritage Found) has what looks like a reactor in the background. As we recall, Mako was the liquid form of the planets lifestream.
I'm stoked for Solution 9. I've been on a sort of cyberpunk/mecha/techy sort of vibe for the last few months (blaming Cyberpunk and Armored core 6 for this one) and my main class being gunbreaker- I just wanna explore that place so bad and contemplate how fried my roleplay character's little brain will be when witnessing that.
so i assume the "divide" between the scions will be those who support the hrothgar succeding as a ruler and those who support the mamool ja guy we fight in the trailer?
The fact that Yoshi P. brought attention to the color scheme of Garlemald vs this new area tells me it's Mhachi in some way. Like a survivor group of the flood ala fayth style.
"Tell me, have you been to the ruins beneath the water of the Bounty? Or the treasure islands beyond the frozen waters of Blindfrost, in Othard's north? The fable golden cities of the New World? The sacred sites of the forgotten people of the south sea isles? What about Meracydia, the southern continent? Do you know aught of its present state of affairs?...I thought not. Even of your little Eorzea, you know precious little. The true identities of the Twelve, for instance. All of which is to say: expand your horizons. Go forth and seek discovery. Some of the civilizations in the reflections will surprise you." Per Emet-Selch's description, we have a lot of locations already visited between 6.1-6.5, and New World will be reached in 7.0. Will we also visit some of the shards in expansion 7.0?
Time for that FF14 hype. I'm excited for Dawn Trail. We got Krile FINALLY being a primary part of the Scions and she got the new class to boot. We also got the new furry mommy race as well, it's gonna be an interesting Summer 2024. Edit: I'm not sure if they are just hiding the true new world map, but MAN they need to update Garlemald. Unless there's a specific future story reason why they won't do that. If I were to guess, they may update it once Garlemald is back on their feet. Edit 2: WHAT IS THIS EXPANSION!? We got cowboy central and pretty Native American esque architecture and design and now we get gotdamn Cyberpunk in the same expansion. What is this game, these CBU3 people are crazy, the good kind the best kind. Edit 3: I'm concerned with this expansion. There's a lot of new things and ideas, but a part of me feels that unless the team has an expanded budget plus more manpower, most of these ideas will end up half-baked and disappointing. Island Sanctuary is my best comparison, but also the Grand Company stuff as well. Cosmic Exploration is my biggest fear for it being half baked. If Cosmic Exploration is more fleshed out and different from the regular side stuff, I can see it being the initial interest point for future reflection hopping adventures for MSQ/raid stories.
They are starting a new epic story line. It's to be expected that a lot of seeds are planted, but not answered in Dawntrail. When it comes to the Cosmic Exploration, their track record with new features is not great. They often need several iterations to be good, but I think, unless you blow your expectations out of propertions, then it will probably be a fun side activity for a while. Just don't expect a new game within the game.
Pictomance. As an artist myself, I LOVELOVELOVE this job already! I just hope the rendering of the paint effects gets a little rework. Looks too cartoony and out of place for my tasts ^^° The T-Shirt at Vegas Fanfest was indeed a good hint: at the front the turtle with two swords (whatever his name is ^^° ) and the different colored bandanas they all wear... But, yeah, try to put two and two together a year ago XD 20:55 --- People will insist this man does cosplay for as long as he goes on stage XD 48:42 --- It could still be Allagan... like advanced or modern Allagan. My guess would be that remnants of Allag have survived... 1:05:50 --- I think there was (or will be?) a concept art for RDM... somethere in the presentation...

Congratulations to Krile for finally escaping side-character hell
200$ her "speaking to the soul" power dissapears or gets limited in someway if she is ever allowed to go to other shards tho. its too stronk in the lore
Krile deserves it, she has that sass quality and she's too cool of a character to let her suffer in side character hell.
Always happy to see Krile, sidekick or otherwise.
Watch, next expansion we'll get Tataru joining duty support as a Dragoon
Erenville was introduced THIS expansion and immediately got a spot on the Scion team lol, but at least she's finally made it
I also just wanna say, Krile was happy in the trailer, and I'm super happy for her to not be possessed, hostage, imprisoned, sidelined, experimented on, ostricized from her scholarly compatriates, overworked keeping the souls of her friends tethered through comas, underappreciated, dunked on by the Lalafell hater union, having Zenos dougie on up to ask if he can munch on the mothercrystal to maybe, hopefully, possibly kill one of her friends, or being beaten in a footrace by Tataru down several flights of stairs.

It is time to once again fight like men, AND LADIES WHO DRESS AS MEN!
"Some of the civilizations in the reflections will surprise you." My money is that Solution Nine is something to do with the Ninth Reflection.
As for heritage found, I wonder if that has something to do with the rejoined 12th reflection. That was the thunder calamity.
My money is also on it being on The Ninth. Solution 9 is the name of one of Zidane's Dyne attacks in FFIX, so it could be an adaptation of Terra from that game.
I feel like the 13 th Shard will be next due to the set up in 6.5 with Ryn and Gaia.
Solution 9 is the name of one of Zidane's limit break in FF9
Heritage Found seems like FFXIV's version of the Thunder Plains in FFX which was perpetually bombarded with lightning.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking solution nine might be Terra. We'll probably run into a bunch of genomes and maybe even kuja being a villian.
Solution Nine single-handedly made me excited for where this story is going. I need to know M O R E
Bro, I have no idea where all of this is going. But Tural and Solution Nine are very strong hooks for the upcoming saga story.
The fact that the moon in Endwalker was the selling point but not the story focal point has made me questionable about everything. There's definitely more to uncover here.
Here's a tidbit, then. Solution 9 is the name of one of Zidane's Dyne attacks when he's in trance in FFIX.
Yeah I’m super happy we’re getting a technologically advanced city. It’s giving a lil bit Esthar from 8, Academia from 13-2 and a liiiiiiiil bit Midargar

Jesse, I've been watching since your Witcher 2 series way back when, and even probably before that. Recently I've felt nostalgic and wanted to re watch the W2 series. When the page loaded, I couldnt help but be so happy that you had finally broke the 1m subscriber line. You are no doubt one of my favorite personalities on this platform. Much love to you, may you continue to find success and fulfillment.
The ceruleum mining operation in the New World is a known factor Jesse! It features pretty prevalently in the BLU quest line.
Love the new part of the theme song towards the end where picto is revealed...Sokengod! Don't really love picto, but my daughter does, so she's going to play through DT as picto and I'm going to play viper. :) Was kinda surprised about hrothgals, figured that wouldn't come until after the graphics update...maybe more towards 8.0.
I do very much wonder who built Solution 9. It looks like nothing we've seen so far, it doesnt look Allagan, it doesnt look Ancient, it doesnt look Loporrit, it doesnt look Omicron. Who built something THIS advanced without anyone else noticing???
Some people have been translating the words on signs in Solution Nine and one of them says "Soul Supply"
Dawntrail is on track to be the weirdest expansion and I think that is an incredible thing, and something the game could use right about now.
JESSE!!! Pictomancer is a dream come true! I'm so excited to paint all the things 😭🎨
lesssssgooooooo
replied with the wrong account :P @@CoxClips
If you interview Yoshi P, Jesse, I expect you to cosplay in Pictomancer gear.
The one thing I’m worried about is the A and B story style of this expansion. I had such whiplash in Stormblood going between Othard and Al Amigo
I think the writing team has had time to reflect on what worked and what didn’t. I expect it to be more cohesive
Worry not. Yoshi confirmed that this is not a split story arc.
'puts tinfoil hat on' I'm wondering if Solution 9 is actually a colony of people from a different planet, much like how Midy found our world and settled here.
Maybe another world on the brink of destruction sent out 'colony ships' to as many worlds as they found that could be compatible and it was the 9th ship that found ours. (Kinda like how the moon was gonna be used as a colony ship to travel to other worlds to try and find a safe one)
As one of the 3 elezen that exists on planet earth thank you Jesse C for not forgetting about us when yoshi-p talked about our graphical update
This expansion is the only thing really keeping me going...ok a few others too! Super hyped, Krile a FF5 character using an FF6 job, finally she gets to fight too!
Keep in mind they brought back Ardbert's VA during for latest raid. theres no way they'd do that for just 1 fight. So if Solution Nine is related to the Ninth shard, then odds are pretty good we'll be meeting the 9th's version of Ardbert. Looking at the artwork for the expansion, i wonder if that's the white haired Miqo'te?
Keep in mind that Joe Dempsey also voices Arenvald, who appeared as recently as 5.55
My theory for the future city, its a civilization from one of the other shards that managed to figure out cross realm travel. If it is the case, then it would give a reason for Yshtola to be interested in what is going on here. the future tech can be explained by the fact that that world wouldn't have been affected by calamities, so it could have kept growing the entire time, PLUS it would check off another of Emet's final words. Specifically the part about how the civilizations on some of the shards would surprise us.
Nutkin protecting his nuts at all cost, much to Thancred's dismay LMAO
Funny you should mention Mhachi, I was doing the RDM level 70 quest and just before the end of it you come out on a vista that if you look up has a pyramid decorated with the same glyphs as you see in the art of Solution 9.
When looking at the job trailers, pay attention to the character model. When the character gets a yellow/gold hue aura particle, it's a GCD. When it's a blue hue aura particle, it's an oGCD
Just pre ordered today! Super excited! I keep coming back to vids to listen to all the conent that's coming! June can't come any sooner. It feels so far away 😢 i am trying to let everyday go by fast af at this point just to invest so much yijrí
I ran into Lil JC in a roulette once. Can confirm. Always looked good.
I watched this live and it made me super hype, but rewatching it, the final trailer's Krile part revealing the new job along with the gorgeous music almost made me cry. Lil lady has come so far.
"I want to believe Kate is better."
Oh you Sweet Summer child. This Heavensturn had a Quest called 'Unlike a Dragon' and The achievement was 'Next time, on Dragon Bo'
I love the idea of the mask being connected to Azem, more Azem lore pleeeease. But did you notice the Ancient sitting looking over the stage before the countdown? It looked amazing! I think it was the Watcher?
Solution 9 looks like Esthar... full of lightning energy? Could be a remnant of the 2nd Calamity of Lightning!
I dont think Azem is involved cause 1) with Hydaelyn/Zodiark done I think that the Ascians/First Ones are done 2) Azem left the Council as mentioned in quests and we (WoLs) are indicated to have part of their soul which would mean Azem is sundered (also it was noted that Emet-Selch was the last of the unsundered) so AT BEST it would be a Fandaniel sort of thing but again see the first part.
Azem is us the Warrior of Light. I don't know why there are comments talking about Azem hiding somewhere. Did Jesse talk about it in the video? If so he's wrong. It's spelled out to us in game that we are Azem.
We are a shard of Azem but there could be a shard that was elevated like Fandaniel or lesser Asians were.
We figured out the text in one of the scenes from the Solution Nine video, and it showed directions to "Employment," "Elevators" and, most interestingly, "Soul Supply."
On Twitter someone mentioned that in FF9 there was a race called the Genomes, and they were basically androids waiting for a soul. Reading into the background and seeing everything they've shown so far, I have a feeling this is what we're working with. I don't think it's going to be a one for one match (in terms of a world trying to merge with the Source) but perhaps they will be written to be actual aliens who managed to flee one of the planets Metion visited and that's why the place is covered in lightning and there's like no sun and such.
Every time I look at the glyph Jesse was analysing, I don't see an Ascian symbol, I see a Dwarf helmet and beard with writing under it.
Timeskip norvrandt raid confirmed
I think you did a video like this a million years ago but an updated "here's the story stuff you should play before this expansion" would be awesome, for those of us who haven't been playing all the way through.
Nice to see today, how much he interpreted into the logo of the Arcadion company. Especially since YoshiP said that it will be a 100% FF XIV original and therefore couldn't be anything known ^^
Ceruleum extraction in the new world is a major plot point in the BLU lvl 50 quests, if there's no recognition if we've done BLU I'll be mad
Fun fact: the model for the job was Krile's JP voice actor!
Finally Krrile joining the MSQ SQUAD!
I love how they read some streaming commentaries - aknowledging the whole community.
Cerulean deposits was a part of the Blue mage job quest, the Walaquee tribe lived near a location full of Ceruleum that another npc wanted to extract, but the Walaquee held the location sacred
The slide for Heritage Found gives me alternate timeline FF7 vibes. A train under a floating city that's far more advanced than what's observed on the surface? Jenova raid when?
Well... first off, hype af.
Remember when Emet said some of the civilizations from the reflection' may surprise you?
Who says denizens of the source were the most advanced? Or... for that matter... were the only ones who could traverse the rift?
What if one, guided by lets say... an Ascian... were able to move its entire capital city to the Source before their end (rejoining) hit?
ARR and DT Have a similar vibe. One is about a new adventurer trying to find a way in the world, and DT is vacationing. Both on the surface feel very laid back.
1:31:00 that's the sound of cat boy stocks going up.
My friend saw Solution 9 and was like, "so we are going to Wakanda?"
1:06:11
It's just diadem in space.
you can see the north beyond othard is unclouded, even says blindfrost 👀
This has really got me hyped I was worried this was just gonna be a "holiday" expansion with no stakes but its looking good the hi tech city has me super intrigued.
The more I look at the symbol in the Arcadion artwork, the more it looks like a combination of Elidibus, Emet-Selch and Lahabrea's Ascian sigils.
When Lahabrea and Igeyorhm fused together, their sigils fused, as well. It's certainly something to chew on.
I thought the symbol looks like Emmerololth. It has the two horns, the funny hat with stuff coming out of it, big face, and the two hands that have three fingers waving at you. And if you look very closely, it looks like there are some dotes in the neck area. There is also the lines at the bottom that look like the platform under the hands.
The description of the land snear Solution 9/Heritage Found reminds me of the Second Umbral Calamity.
The sky was covered in black clouds and people were forced to live underground as levin bolts struck the land constantly for a full year and a day.
While the land near S9/HF is described as having thick clouds that block out the sun and being in a constant levin storm. (48:24, bottom description).
It also reminds me of that one region in FFX/FFX-2. Thunder Plains? Given the beast tribe from X, the Pelupelu, are showing up, maybe there will be more nods towards FFX?
"Battle at the Biggest Bridge" Greg fight! *Holding every thumb*
14:30 the absolute swagger of a man who knows he carries the weight of the entire company on his back
they said Koji Fox was gone working on translating but i'm sure he was just rocking back and forth in a dark room anticipating the immediate demand for Encyclopedia Eorzea Vol. 4 after this keynote
Genuine question, that giant crack on the world map representing the Panama Canal. How is that possible? Is it even possible? How does the large body of water called the ocean not filled the crack?????
OMG! I was excited for Viper but Beastmaster looks so cool! I haven't played since I beat Endwalker so I am going to have TONS of stuff to come back to.
I mean they didn't show anything other than the name so idk what you think looks cool lmao
@ANDREWxDELUXE you know there is actual game play of viper right?
@@handlerone5172Your first message made it seem you were talking about Beastmaster and not Viper.
@TheAssirra Well even still, it looks cool from the trailer lol, not saying it won't change from actual game play.
@@handlerone5172 "I was excited for Viper BUT Beastmaster looks so cool!" You are saying Beastmaster looks cool with zero game play footage or even hints of what it could be other than the name.
Solution Nine is exciting. Since Solution 9 is one of Zidane's strongest Trance abilities, I'm hoping there's a bit of FF9 influence on the area (Terran perhaps), and it's not just a name reference. We've already got the Viper job as a pseudo-reference to Zidane as well. I'm here for it if that's the case.
Solution Nine is gonna blow up as an RP hub if it's a sanctuary.
Solution 9... Heritage Found... Just what *was* Azem doing when he declined to join the Convocation and Venat's group?
That's what I'm thinking.
The solution nine area gave me Shinra Mako Energy vibes and one of the images (Heritage Found) has what looks like a reactor in the background. As we recall, Mako was the liquid form of the planets lifestream.
What is the song that Yoshi-P comes out to? Its very familiar but I can't recall it.
Holyshit Tropical theme to cyberpunk neon city in same expansion???? WTF IS GOING ON
On the Ascian symbol, it looks like Deudalaphon based on some of the patterns in the glyph.
Jesse: Lemme check the settings.
Me: Um... Let me also check those.
BOTH OF US: WHAT, IT WAS 720, NOT 1080?!
When Solution Nine came on screen
"Oh look, New L.A."
Viper and Pictomancer is new life into the game, very excited for this expansion. Will definitly be playing Pictomancer
Those graphics upgrades are so nice like it's really awesome work.
I'm stoked for Solution 9.
I've been on a sort of cyberpunk/mecha/techy sort of vibe for the last few months (blaming Cyberpunk and Armored core 6 for this one) and my main class being gunbreaker- I just wanna explore that place so bad and contemplate how fried my roleplay character's little brain will be when witnessing that.
regarding gx update: i cant overstate how well they updated the ear cartilage and fold placement.
I'm assuming that super high tech civilization is what ruled in the first era? You know, since its lightning charged and it was a lightning calamity
I would have liked to see Pictomancer start in Idylshire at the painter
Looking forward to the grinding gear folks getting to this point in 2025.
so i assume the "divide" between the scions will be those who support the hrothgar succeding as a ruler and those who support the mamool ja guy we fight in the trailer?
The mamool ja in the trailer is the actual king so no!
I can only imagine that the Cosmic Exploration is going to incorporate plot hooks from Firmament and change similar to the pixie beast tribe zone.
I just want to know if there is a monorail to South Ogdenville from Solution Nine
Ain't no monorail and there never was!
"Solution Nine: Home of the Monorail!"
The fact that Yoshi P. brought attention to the color scheme of Garlemald vs this new area tells me it's Mhachi in some way. Like a survivor group of the flood ala fayth style.
"Tell me, have you been to the ruins beneath the water of the Bounty? Or the treasure islands beyond the frozen waters of Blindfrost, in Othard's north? The fable golden cities of the New World? The sacred sites of the forgotten people of the south sea isles? What about Meracydia, the southern continent? Do you know aught of its present state of affairs?...I thought not. Even of your little Eorzea, you know precious little. The true identities of the Twelve, for instance. All of which is to say: expand your horizons. Go forth and seek discovery. Some of the civilizations in the reflections will surprise you." Per Emet-Selch's description, we have a lot of locations already visited between 6.1-6.5, and New World will be reached in 7.0. Will we also visit some of the shards in expansion 7.0?
Wow they held Fan Fest at Tokyo Dome. That's a 55,000 seat capacity stadium. Not a small deal. Pretty cool.
Did we ever get a symbol to represent the entire convocation? I wonder if they took elements from each?
Maaan I gotta give this game a shot, this all looks so cool
that symbol totally looked like a dude with a peace sign to me, seeing Jesse digging so deep was amazing!
Not a Final Fantasy fan but Jesse's enthusiasm is contagious
Yeah that some guy is me Jesse, you better believe thats my dream
Time for that FF14 hype. I'm excited for Dawn Trail. We got Krile FINALLY being a primary part of the Scions and she got the new class to boot. We also got the new furry mommy race as well, it's gonna be an interesting Summer 2024.
Edit: I'm not sure if they are just hiding the true new world map, but MAN they need to update Garlemald. Unless there's a specific future story reason why they won't do that. If I were to guess, they may update it once Garlemald is back on their feet.
Edit 2: WHAT IS THIS EXPANSION!? We got cowboy central and pretty Native American esque architecture and design and now we get gotdamn Cyberpunk in the same expansion. What is this game, these CBU3 people are crazy, the good kind the best kind.
Edit 3: I'm concerned with this expansion. There's a lot of new things and ideas, but a part of me feels that unless the team has an expanded budget plus more manpower, most of these ideas will end up half-baked and disappointing. Island Sanctuary is my best comparison, but also the Grand Company stuff as well. Cosmic Exploration is my biggest fear for it being half baked. If Cosmic Exploration is more fleshed out and different from the regular side stuff, I can see it being the initial interest point for future reflection hopping adventures for MSQ/raid stories.
Who knows? maybe they'll do another crafter/gatherer rebuilding thing
They are starting a new epic story line. It's to be expected that a lot of seeds are planted, but not answered in Dawntrail.
When it comes to the Cosmic Exploration, their track record with new features is not great. They often need several iterations to be good, but I think, unless you blow your expectations out of propertions, then it will probably be a fun side activity for a while. Just don't expect a new game within the game.
Gasp! Pictomancy is like creation magic!
The place sounds and looks exactly like the thunder plains of FFX
Jesse is out here taking potshots at wow with every chance he gets. 😂😂😂
Pictomance. As an artist myself, I LOVELOVELOVE this job already! I just hope the rendering of the paint effects gets a little rework. Looks too cartoony and out of place for my tasts ^^°
The T-Shirt at Vegas Fanfest was indeed a good hint: at the front the turtle with two swords (whatever his name is ^^° ) and the different colored bandanas they all wear... But, yeah, try to put two and two together a year ago XD
20:55 --- People will insist this man does cosplay for as long as he goes on stage XD
48:42 --- It could still be Allagan... like advanced or modern Allagan. My guess would be that remnants of Allag have survived...
1:05:50 --- I think there was (or will be?) a concept art for RDM... somethere in the presentation...
