Just finished Hades yesterday, and I can say without a doubt as someone who went through the story in one fell swoop in the past 6-8 months; this video and song does so much justice to our heroes unending journey
i love that the overriding theme of Shadowbringers has been "Hope" and it's just been infront of us the whole time. For the nihilism of the Ascians and all the doom upon the world...every major character from the WoL/WoD to Hades, Elidibus & Azem etc has "Hope" in common...
Just finished 5.0 MSQ. You usually only ever see Emet Selch and the other Ascians while they are acting as your opposition. The WoL and the Scions are the obstacles to their goals. To see Amarout and Emet tell their story and motivations definitely gives them their hope. I haven't gotten into Endwalker yet, but to think that if the Ascians plan wasn't the taking of many life forces aether and it was something less destructive, the Scions and Ascians might have even been allies.
I just want to say I love how you've mixed tomorrow and tomorrow into Shadowbringers in such a cool way. And the mix of voices is just... yes. It's a great reimagining of the song.
Took a break from the game recently after failing to find a group for Savage. With the endgame gone I saw little reason for the continual grind I was putting myself through to keep up. It's been a few months since then, and even with the 5.1 patch I've not brought myself to get back on to play the new story content / dungeon / keep up. But this video reminded me why I played the game in the first place. The way clips from all of the expansions have been woven together here reminded me of all the emotions I felt while I played - the funny moments, the sad moments, and the ultimately heroic ones. For the first time in a long while I actually feel like playing because I've been reminded that I love this world and the journey we've all been through. Thank you for giving me a chance to regain that perspective, intentional or otherwise. I'll have this on repeat for a while, tonight!
If you can't find a static using Discord communities, Reddit, Fellowships and PF You can also prog with Pugs in PF, lots of helpful peeps usually in pugs
One brought shadow, one brought the light Two verse it took to bring delight Those who gave up willing to fight Had thus regained their once lost sight
This is something that the players of this game need to keep in mind. It's an MMO, yes, but it's a Final Fantasy game first and foremost, and therefore, the story is the main focus of the game. And it certainly doesn't lack an enthralling story.
The last minute of this video 3:05 with the video from ARR and Louisoix fits so perfectly that it brought me to tears. Thanks for this great arrangement
Thank you. This is one of the best video and cover I've seen in a long time. I bow to this achievement. The story, the music, the lyrics, the characters, all that clings to the heart. Anyone who has lived through Eorzea and traveled the places will probably never forget them.
Again here to say this reminds me exactly why and how much I love this game. Such a blessing put together and so beautiful, dear, sweet, nostalgic, sad and loved, the way you sing the "home" part with the meteors feels like relieving an old memory, so close to home, thank you
This song is an absolute godsend in any version. Feels like someone who's weary and just trying to fight their way to their home planet/existence/world-line. Like this was made by the weeping angel himself/herself.
Really love this video. The music, the vocals, the video cuts. It really touches on the nostalgia of having played through the whole story of the game.
Honestly, I was expecting something else since metal was in the title, but let me tell you it was probably the best surprise I've had in a long time. It was very good. Thank you for your hard work.
This is so beautiful. I love what you did here. I'm so in love with this, both song and video, particularly the home part with the meteor. What a journey
Okay, I wont lie to you. That beginning solo truly gave me CHILLS! Now you might be thinking that that's a good response to a listener, but not me. Its almost impossible for me to feel that way to anything at all, even for music I love and know is fantastic. You managed to do something to me I didn't believe was possible and the overall song is good in its own right. For that brief moment alone, 'Thank you".
The “Eternal winds from the lands ascend.” but gets me everytime. I feel like it’s preparing me for the emotional shitstorm that’s going to hit me when I finish Shadowbringers next week
Lyrics For whom weeps the storm Her tears on our skin The days of our years gone Our souls soaked in sin These memories ache with the weight of tomorrow Who fights? Who flies? Who falls? One brings shadow, one brings light Two-toned echoes tumbling through time Threescore wasted, ten cast aside Four-fold knowing, no end in sight One brings shadow, one brings light One dark future no one survives On their shadow, away we fly… The road that we walk, is lost in the flood [Stand tall my friend] Here proud angels bathe in, their wages of blood [May all of the dark deep inside you find light again] At this, the worlds end. Do we cast off tomorrow [This time tumbling turning we make amends] Eternal winds from the land ascend Here to lift us that we won’t end One brings shadow, one brings light To this ruddle all souls are tied Brief our moments, brazen and bright Forged in fury. Tempered in ice Hindmost devils, early to rise Sing come twilight, sleep when they die Heaven’s banquet leavened with lies Sating honor, envy, and pride One brings shadow, one brings light Run from the light Authors of our fate Orchestrate our fall from grace Poorest players on the stage Our defiance drives us straight to the edge A reflection in the glass Recollections of our past Swift as darkness cold as ash Far beyond this dream of paradise lost Home Riding home Dying hope Hold onto hope Home [We fall] Riding home [We fall] Home, riding home [We fall] Hope, finding hope [We fall] Unto the end One brings shadow, one brings light One more chapter we’ve yet to write Want for nothing, nothing denied Wandering ended, future aligned One brings shadow, one brings light I am shadow. I am the light
I feel like this one is closer to the Nobuo Uematsu Final Fantasy music that I have grown up to, Masayoshi Soken did amazing as well, but it took some getting used to for me.
Honestly, this...isn't metal. ...but it's amazing. The matching between the video and the music/lyrics is fantastic, and the music and vocals themselves (your performances) are amazing. This is awesome! :)
Amazing video compilation to an epic cover. My only criticism is the visual for the early lyric "Who flies?" It's not about actual flying; it's about running away. The Reborn trailer where the soldiers withdraw from the sight of Bahamut's prison would easily suffice here.
"if you take another step, could you save our words?" "Take it we fight as one" "this word is not yours to end. this is our story OUR future" "EMET SELCH I CHALLENGE YOU!"
Amazing video. This might be my personal ultimate cover version. If I may, I'd suggest removing "metal" from the title and simply calling it "Epic Cover [Vocals]" People thinking the title is somewhat misleading is detracting attention away from how good this piece really is.
Don’t miss the instrumental ver. th-cam.com/video/DbXQ465BZo0/w-d-xo.html

Literal chills when the vocals go "run from the light" while focusing on Zenos' eye.

For those we've lost, for those we can yet save!
One brought shadow, one brought the light
Two verse it took to bring delight
Those who gave up willing to fight
Had thus regained their once lost sight

This is incredibly phenomenal! Everyone involved should be extremely proud of themselves!

This is so good and the video editing as well. I think I come back almost everyday to listen to this
This song is an absolute godsend in any version. Feels like someone who's weary and just trying to fight their way to their home planet/existence/world-line. Like this was made by the weeping angel himself/herself.
I can't wait until I finish the main scenario so I can see shadowbringers if this is the type of quality we're getting holy shit this is epic.
Really love this video. The music, the vocals, the video cuts. It really touches on the nostalgia of having played through the whole story of the game.
Im still jump of emotion listening this song and remember the final's speech ef emet before turns into Hades
Awesome cover and production quality !
Impressive, very impressive, I love your cover. It is powerful and has a crazy nostalgia vibe. Amazing job.
instand goosebumps the moment it started, i love this game so much

Too bad the DRG was the only one who did a damn thing against the Sin eater... until he went DRK... XD

LOL DRG

Welp, you gave me goosebumps and I can't think of a higher compliment than that
Amazing. This makes me so proud to be a part of the ffxiv community ♡
ok, I LOVE your cover the dual vocal works very well here, and its gonna be my inspiration for Hades extreme keep your good work fellow samurai
Truly astoundingly done with the cover and the cutscenes from all the expansions! Loved this so much!
The editing of this video reminds us all of the massive tapestry that began even before we even started the game.
this, this bring me tears, tears of joy and deep emotions. it was marvelous. thanks you for this masterpiece, and keep on the good work
This is AWESOME ! Haven't seen such a great Cover or Remix in ages. You should defo be proud of yourself! :)
Okay, I wont lie to you. That beginning solo truly gave me CHILLS! Now you might be thinking that that's a good response to a listener, but not me. Its almost impossible for me to feel that way to anything at all, even for music I love and know is fantastic.

holy bleep just forking awesome , it tells the story of this great game and the world i love this , keep up the awesome art
I can't even begin to write how EPIC this was
already watching for the 4th time
holy shit im crying. This is the best cover of any game! amazing work
The “Eternal winds from the lands ascend.” but gets me everytime. I feel like it’s preparing me for the emotional shitstorm that’s going to hit me when I finish Shadowbringers next week
My eyes got teary just from listening to this. ❤
Best cover ever. Really love it. Listenning to it made me wanted to play the game again.
This is the best cover I've heard :D
I was expecting something slightly different seeing "metal" in the description. Pleasantly surprised nevertheless.
Lyrics
For whom weeps the storm
Her tears on our skin
The days of our years gone
Our souls soaked in sin
These memories ache with the weight of tomorrow
Who fights?
Who flies?
Who falls?
One brings shadow, one brings light
Two-toned echoes tumbling through time
Threescore wasted, ten cast aside
Four-fold knowing, no end in sight
One brings shadow, one brings light
One dark future no one survives
On their shadow, away we fly…
The road that we walk, is lost in the flood [Stand tall my friend]
Here proud angels bathe in, their wages of blood [May all of the dark deep inside you find light again]
At this, the worlds end. Do we cast off tomorrow [This time tumbling turning we make amends]
Eternal winds from the land ascend
Here to lift us that we won’t end
One brings shadow, one brings light
To this ruddle all souls are tied
Brief our moments, brazen and bright
Forged in fury. Tempered in ice
Hindmost devils, early to rise
Sing come twilight, sleep when they die
Heaven’s banquet leavened with lies
Sating honor, envy, and pride
One brings shadow, one brings light
Run from the light
Authors of our fate
Orchestrate our fall from grace
Poorest players on the stage
Our defiance drives us straight to the edge
A reflection in the glass
Recollections of our past
Swift as darkness cold as ash
Far beyond this dream of paradise lost
Home
Riding home
Dying hope
Hold onto hope
Home [We fall]
Riding home [We fall]
Home, riding home [We fall]
Hope, finding hope [We fall]
Unto the end
One brings shadow, one brings light
One more chapter we’ve yet to write
Want for nothing, nothing denied
Wandering ended, future aligned
One brings shadow, one brings light
I am shadow. I am the light
So glad TH-cam recommended this, it’s so amazing.
I feel like this one is closer to the Nobuo Uematsu Final Fantasy music that I have grown up to, Masayoshi Soken did amazing as well, but it took some getting used to for me.
SchuKadaj I’ve been a fan of him for ten years
I keep coming back and watching this xD
This is perfect. On repeat!! Love this so much!
This is phenomenal
Totally blown away! This is amazing!
This was incredible, both visually and audibly. This could honestly be a trailer or GMV in and of itself. You should be proud of your work.
Very nice arrangement, both the music and the video editing.
Brought tears into our eyes!! This video deserves more likes!!!
This is phenomenally done! I've had it on repeat since I found it! Well done!
Subscribed. This was absolutely fantastic, amazing cover!
"my dormant brethren dream now of a dark tomorrow" "in zodiark's name I BESEECH YOU".
That cut of Bravura under Dalamud followed by the axe of light that pierced Hades is chef kiss...
MY SAMURAI spirits is burniing with this music, good cover
Taverna do DevilHunter Samurai here too!
@@Frioniel ooooooooooooooo we are bushido *_ *
@@Frioniel warrior of light on shadowbringers didnt hit sin eater with senei
Am a proud Samurai main! Been that way since I started Heavensward
unbelievably amazing wonderful job really
I’m amazed by the video just as much as I am the song.
Just perfect
I expected something entirely different from 'metal' but damn, this is SO GOOD, I have goosebumps!
This is amazing! You guys are awesome.
Honestly, this...isn't metal.
...but it's amazing. The matching between the video and the music/lyrics is fantastic, and the music and vocals themselves (your performances) are amazing. This is awesome! :)
物凄くカッコいいです！！！！！！
来了来了超棒的！！
thought this was like, official stuff until i read the comments. it really might as well be with how professionally it's made
来支持啦！！！！QAQ从网易云追到b站再追到油管w！太棒了呜呜呜┭┮﹏┭┮
Good mix, brought memories of things I've done in FF14 story flooding back
You know, I thought this was really good when it started. And then 1:40 onwards started happening and now I'm obsessed.
such great work！！！！
Probably my favourite version of all ♥
Simply beautiful, loved it ^^
I teared up watching and listening to this. Absolutely amazing.
Need this on Spotify x.x
WOW! simply WOW no other calificative is needed
This brings my tears out
My Dark Knight is raging within
2:50 REALLY gave me Sur Tes Pas vibes, the Opening to Wakfu
and I'm really happy for it
Outstanding.
Good job with the bass vocals at 1:32. I really enjoy listening to them.
The amount of chills I got.. I even cried holy crap
That was beautiful! Amazing job!!!
Minerviachan I love a2 too!
its been a year that I've been listening to this that I even downloaded it and still forgot the one who made it now but that ends today :3
Amazing video compilation to an epic cover. My only criticism is the visual for the early lyric "Who flies?" It's not about actual flying; it's about running away. The Reborn trailer where the soldiers withdraw from the sight of Bahamut's prison would easily suffice here.
This was absolutely beautiful!
so cool!
It's incredible to listen
Literally crying. This video is fucking BEAUTIFUL
Really need an extended version of this not going to lie
over a year and still no extended version :'(
"if you take another step, could you save our words?" "Take it we fight as one" "this word is not yours to end. this is our story OUR future" "EMET SELCH I CHALLENGE YOU!"
My character is female. When Ardbert’s voice came from my mouth I lmao XD
@@Frioniel kkkkkkkkkk lol its funny emet selch thought "what a hell she's talk like man"
Not very metal but still pretty good
很好!
So good
Great arrangement
this makes me realize she is in the og party. 2:13
Ultimate level cover
Dude, this is amazing!
Thanks u just leaked Hades (Ultimate) theme
かっこいい！
It‘s so cool !
Ardberrrrrrtttttt 😭😭😭😭😭
And offfhhh cool mix love thisss!! ❤❤❤
ikr ardbert "bumps chest" mad respect this story is so fuckin good
this hits diffrent after endwalker
It's good but it's actually less metal than the original...
SNUPE They changed the title
@@aidenfaulk6170 Ah alright that makes sense then.
But more epic than original.
Amazing video. This might be my personal ultimate cover version. If I may, I'd suggest removing "metal" from the title and simply calling it "Epic Cover [Vocals]"
People thinking the title is somewhat misleading is detracting attention away from how good this piece really is.
Good call , thanks :)
@@Frioniel Anytime. I hope this blows up! The video editing is pretty stellar.
Frioniel change the thumbnail too
Love how this sorta kinda gives Drakengard vibes during the start \o/
Why I found it only now?? Beautiful work!!
"Remember... Remember us."
Someone need to do this.
I was NOT prepared when it hit the Home note.... the hair on my arms stood taller than Mt. Gulg.
Emet selch forevaaaaaaaaaa
