  • Video footage showing the second phase of the final boss from 4.0; Shinryu, and boy what a boss it is. Stormblood has been about as "Final Fantasy" as you can get to me, and the huge monster hanging off the side of a platform in some otherworldly space. Perfect.

      I Love Corrupted Ather gauge mechanic reminds of how each class has been given a resource they have to mange that they can expend to preform powerful moves! Having a boss that can do the same is awesome. All i really want to see mechanically in Extreme is the Ather bar to be segmented and each of his moves having different costs this time 25% 50% 75% !00% with the bar changing colour briefly before he uses each attack as a primitive telegraph.
      Anyway enough rambling Have a good day!

    I always love the heroic flourishes with their themes. I was a WoW player for most of my life and they never seemed to understand that games are also a work of art, especially with their musical themes.
    The lead into the Stormblood boss theme is amazingly perfect and beautiful. I replay so many fights in the game because they’re fun, they’re enjoyable, and they connect emotionally. And the theme is perfect because it’s the hope of the people in Doma and Yangxia against the horrors and suffering inflicted by Zenos and the Garlean Empire.
    Jumping to FF14 was totally worth it.

    This song kicking in as Shinryu busts through the platform (assuming you won the qte) hitching a ride on him as you soar into Shinryu’s dimention.
    And then the extreme where he stabs his tail into the arena and you have to run across to the other platform as he shoots lasers at you.
    Its just. Chef’s kiss.
    FFXIV just nails it with the presentation of the fights.

While i do love me a good final boss track that is foreboding and meanacing to really hammer in the imposing foe you are facing, i have a soft spot for tracks that instead tries to encourage you. "This is the final challenge, and you can do this! Your foe may be powerful but you have overcome everything they have thrown at you, you can win this!"

    The first time i died in the first big green aoe because the transtion plus the music got me paralized like a log on the spot, plus my eyes went wet all of a sudden and i felt one of the biggest chills in a videogame. I have no adjectives to describe the situation

    I can't decide which of Shinryu's theme I like more... This one takes a much more modern classical approach and is more blood-pumping.

    I'm still having trouble wrapping my gods damned mind around this fight. It's just...so good. Like you said, it has that old Final Fantasy feel, I could easily see Shinryu as the final boss of a 16-bit era game. Kinda reminded me of Neo Exdeath with the background, actually.
    And the music! It hits every note right to get across that feeling of finality and "Oh hey, you're fighting a dragon god that created a PROTO PLANET JUST TO FIGHT YOU". Like holy shit, Shinryu is infinitely more powerful than Bahamut ever was. I mean sure, Bahamut destroyed Eorzea and would have done the same to the whole world, but Shinryu? Shinryu has the power to create an entire planet, not to mention the complete control over ALL the elements.
    Bahamut can go succ a bicc dicc, Shinryu for life.

    The DF group I had for this may have wiped a lot, but this was literally the best fight EVER in FFXIV. T13 was close, but this is better, with the music and the mechanics. Good for samurai too, since I didn't need to worry about positionals!

  • @flaskhjertako

    You know, i find it intensely ironic that shinryu borne of griffons hatred of the garleans and desire to free ala mihgo is manipulated by a Garlean prince for the purpose of hunting people he deems worthy down and in essense destroy the ala mihgan resistance. A really poetic way of saying that being a blind and mindless avenger makes you a tool to be used by many masters, even by your greatest foe.

    I'm JUST now starting to think that the main part of this song that's not the SB motif is actually based on the track "Parting Ways" that plays during cutscenes, same track that's the basis for the Swallow's Compass too.

  • @Muramusa723
    @Muramusa723 7 ปีที่แล้ว +85

    This whole thing is a massive nod to FF1. Zenos becomes Shinryu just as Garland becomes Chaos, their only motivation in doing so, their sole reason to do so, being to kill you, the Warriors of Light. You fight Garland/Chaos on a bunch of blue, floating crystal square tiles with a strange, space-like background behind you, and Chaos floating just off the stage where you stand. Chaos hails you with attacks of all elements, just as Shinryu uses all 2.0 Primal's strongest signature attacks. Literally everything about it is a nod to the original Final Fantasy, and it's fucking amazing, not to mention what an absolutely stunning boss fight (my favorite fight in the entire game by far) and an amazing way of wrapping up this amazing expansion besides. I don't think they could've ended it better, this and the last dungeon just really brought everything together so beautifully. Well fucking done on this one, SE. Just phenomenal.

    • @DevonCosmos
      @DevonCosmos 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      MoonlightMura Not to mention since Shinryu is a boss from both FFV and several of the older games' remakes, it is literally just SE going back to their roots.
      Also, dat music swell, doe. Gods, I was on the edge of my seat with each death and rebirth cycle.
      FAVORITE PRIMAL FTW!

    • @Zythrone
      @Zythrone 7 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      He is based on Vayne Solidor actually, not Garland.
      He is the imperial viceroy to an occupied nation and happens to be the son of the emperor. Him fusing with Shinryu is more like how Vayne fused with Sky Fortress Bahamut.
      Which is why he is the leader of the XIIth legion like Nael was the leader of the VIIth and was based on Sephiroth and Regula was the leader of the VIth and was a part of the Warring Triad storyline.

    • @Muramusa723
      @Muramusa723 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ah, I didn't know that as I'd never played XII, but that bit about the legion names is pretty interesting, that's really cool.
