  • The grandaddy of all final fantasy xv theory videos is awaiting to blow your mind! It's taken almost 3 months for the story of FF15 to be fully explained. Who Ardyn really is. Who Nadir is. The truth of the summons. Eos and Ifrit - A tale of Love and Despair. Why Nyx died in kingsglaive. Truth of Noctis and Lucis families power and a hella lot more.
    If you have read this far without clocking this is a spoiler video for the story of the game, cutscenes, gameplay, kingsglaive movie and brotherhood then derp on you... :P
    Now I can't look at the ending of FFXV and the final boss fight the same :,O
    If you want any names of the ost soundtracks, theme or remix music in this video. Please ask in the comment section.
    Bring on the Ardyn DLC! Now that would be a 30th anniversary treat!... as well as a ff7 remake trailer of course XD

      Hahahaha! 😂😂😂 Maaan, it's ironic how the praise and excitement this newfound (theoretic) lore is getting is only testament to how crap the storytelling and in-game story itself were. Made me dislike the game even more. 😒

      Same. Personally I like the game, but the more I think about it, the more I can't deny how bad it is.

    This makes Ardyn and Ifrit's characters even more tragic. We all thought Ifrit was only in this to destroy humanity and worked with Ardyn to achieve that. But no. They had a common goal. They both wanted revenge for how they were wronged. Ifrit because of the other Astral Gods killing Eos(Ardyn's mother) and Ardyn because his kingdom, his birthright was stolen from him by his own brother and had everyone turn against him which caused his daemon energy to influence and feed his anger and spite even more. Ardyn and Ifrit were both dealt a very bad hand and got fucked over by the gods and humanity.

      the first video was cool but in this one i think you are wrong,we know in ff13 vs ardyn was not related to the king family but was one of the messenger of chaos,the dark crystal so it could be a left over of this old plot...

      @DecoyBlackMage 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It should be noted that SE wanted the playerbase to figure things out on their own though, and that is exactly what we have done, they are already making changes to the story mind you, plus the DLC additions, but overall SE got what they wanted, the players talking and discussing about the lore :)

  • @light333
    @light333 7 ปีที่แล้ว +68

    Holy crap, this is amazing. Why couldnt some of this stuff be more fleshed out in the game. Having said that, I do think games are at their best when they allow the player to dig a little deeper in the lore if they are interested. I dont think a company should ever give everything away in the main story, but leave bread crumbs for the fanbase to figure out for themselves.
    Pitioss Dungeon is actually a masterpiece of a dungeon. I have never seen a dungeon so well made that tells an entire story.

      Fake Name I am doing that in a story I am writing for my animation project. I am a professional animator. If I did that, than people will talk about how incomplete the story is. I love it when team Ico dose that way with Ico and SOTC.

    • @munjed84
      @munjed84 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I honestly wish they had a few more cut scenes inside the secret dungeon. I love lore but even designing lore story is not an easy job, no one does it better than dark souls developers. final fantasy 15 is a great game with a great story but the story is entirely untold which is a bummer for me.

    • @Dniem
      @Dniem 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think this "bread crumbs" tactic paid out in the end. It is really time/cost consuming to make cinematics and such while leaving bits and pieces everywhere involves the community to put the pieces together for the clear picture.

  • @OracleThunder
    @OracleThunder 7 ปีที่แล้ว +78

    In Greek mythology when Zeus wanted to punish Aphrodite he had Eros make her fall in love with Prince Anchises. She birthed Aeneas, founder of Rome, from that union. There is record of goddesses being shamed for sleeping with mortal men (despite gods doing so with mortal women). I still believe Ifrit is Eos brother. That is why he would go into the Underworld for her.

    • @OracleThunder
      @OracleThunder 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Brian MacLeod Aeneas is the forefather of the twins. The twins were born in Latinum, the city Aeneas founded with refugee Trojans. After Romulus and Remus were exposed to die as infants they weren't taken back into the city proper. Hence why the twins had to build their own neighboring city which would later grow so large it would engulf Latinum and become one big megapolis. That is why the Romans spoke Latin and not Roman.

    • @Thiago_Alves_Souza
      @Thiago_Alves_Souza 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's why I am strongly opinionated about Izunia being Ardyn's son rather than his twin. I think his twin started the Fleuret bloodline and was probably a woman, since the Fleurets are a female dominated line.

    • @Thiago_Alves_Souza
      @Thiago_Alves_Souza 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Only the Caelums and Fleurets out of every other human have the divine powers of taming, summoning and subduing the gods, healing the starscourge and also wield royal arms since her trident is one, and we also get royal arms from the Fleuret queens like the Star of the Rogue, hence why I think Ardyn's twin is a woman and started that line. Even Pez mentions the star there.

For any Japanese person or Japanese history buff, the word Genji will remind them of Minamoto no Yoshitsune, the tragic hero of 13th century Japan, younger brother of Minamoto no Yoritomo, the first Shogun of the Kamakura era (really, the first Shogun ever). Genji refers to anybody from the Minamoto family line. Historically, Gilgamesh (since FFV, if I remember correctly) has often had the Genji armor series in the Final Fantasy series (that had Gilgamesh appear in any form). I may be mistaken about this part, but as far as I can remember, this seems to be the case. Gilgamesh seems to be modeled after Benkei, the warrior monk, who was Yoshitsune's faithful follower/bodyguard. We know that FFXV's Gilgamesh is the first Lucian king's "Shield" (at least in the Japanese trailer). Both Benkei and Yoshitsune eventually are killed by Yoritomo, as the younger brother became so popular among the people, and was also a favorite of the Emperor. I feel this is another hint towards the theory that Ardyn and Izunia were twins (or at least brothers), where Ardyn was likely the younger brother, who commanded respect and loved by the people. Izunia gets jealous, and wipes him out from history, and becomes King. It's also reminiscent of the Cain and Abel story. I don't know. Thoughts?

    just discovered your channel! binge watches three or four videos now amd I'm losing my mind! I'm developing such a deeper appreciation for the game now! and a great appreciation for the work you do to flesh out these theory videos. I'm way too stupid to do this in depth research. hopefully some more dlc will tell us more. btw, can anyone tell me where that footage of Noctis in the dessert is from? i don't remember seeing that anywhere

    Also, I want to take a minute to thank you. You have cleared so much up and made FFXV a more complete and clear story for me than what Square did. Strong work.

    While with many games I enjoy their stories and then after additional play through I pick up more things and see deeper story, I have to say Bravo. This seems exceptionally legit to me and adds so much more depth and meaning to the story. I really hope they decide to add content to explain this for those who cannot connect the dots as easy nor really wish to hunt for it. I didn't finish final dungeon but I saw the symbolism and knew there was some extremely deep meaning to it, I could also see that specific characters were involved I just didn't have lines connecting them. So thank you for finding the deeper meaning and explaining it to us. Thanks to all those who had a hand in it. It is really cool sometimes to see people(artists, writers, and designers) that create something so deep and so massive that it takes vast amounts of digging or exceptional attention to detail for it to be brought out to light.

    also I dont know if you guys caught it but the first half of the mountain is fiery and full of lava while the other side when you go to the summit, there is life there in the giant bird eggs you see. So on eos's body or side of the mountain there is life which to me represents her, and the fire on the other side represents ifrit

    First off, gotta say sorry I've missed a couple lifestreams, had to make a trip for a few days and was busy. Now, after I've spent most of the day cleaning my exploded brain off the walls thanks to this vid, I have to say you keep doing better and better vids Pez. Bloody beautiful! This is the coolest backstory stuff ever, and definitely enhances how I look at 15 so much. Will never look at Ardyn the same way, nor the Rock of Ravatogh the same way. My question is this: does what you present about Ardyn in this video finally push him to your no. 1 villain, or is he still behind Caius on your list? Side note: perhaps we could see some of these developments of Ardyn's character in the Ignis dlc, maybe he explains his side of things briefly.

I just cannot wait till Episode Ardyn releases (god knows when)!!! It should answer at least some of our question, maybe confirm some theories!!!

    Hey, awesome videos :D I agree with the most. Had a lot of similiar ideas and it is wonderful to listen to your interpretations. You might have answered it already but I would like to know, what you think, that happens in the end with the demons. Bc when you are in army's dungeon there is this story about the demons being humans, so does noctis heal them or kill them? Looking forward for your answer. And about ardyn's hair, I thought they choose the haircolour bc violet is a colour of jealousy as far as I know:)

    When you asked why only thirteen lucii made me think of the armiger weapons and how each is tied to one of the lucii I also remember at the start of the game they make reference to some being "lost" or possibly destroyed. Maybe there is a life link between the spirit and the weapon. One other thing about ardyn ever since I beat the story and with ignis dlc I think ardyn pulled an orphan and made himself a warrior strong enough to kill him. Maybe his vengence could only be complete with his own death as well. The final trace of their gifts being wiped away.
