Nah, I was a mess starting from Clive and Joshua’s memories, Clive’s hand turning into stone was what destroyed my heart and it got worse and worse with every minute that passed
Nah, just a dog, i was more sad when Gav broke down. No words needed for hom to understand. Then Clives star fades out.. Reddit has convinced themselves clive survived. They huffing copium.
This happened to me when he howled, when Jill started bawling, when Gav realized and looked down, I kept being thrust into the depths of just total sobbing I could hardly catch a breath. I’ve never been so moved by anything

Literally one of the saddest and most powerful ending/credits song in a long time. I still can’t listen to it without sobbing. A showcase to the power of music and good vocals.
It's just so haunting when you hear and watch the ending that first time. I was just kind of in shock from the moment you leave Torgal and Jill behind to go to Origin
When Gav started crying that was the saddest part for me. At the beginning of the game, i always thought he would betray Cid eventually. Especially when Clive says bye before heading out after first arriving at the hideaway. And Gav replies very awkwardly.But after Clive rescues him, i started liking his character a lot Now he's definitely my favourite side character
Their first meeting was Joshua’s first moments of his life… I couldn’t stop crying, but then I made waterfalls in my eyes when this song started playing…😢
I really didn't expect to be smiling once it was done, but that after credit scene the two kids, the book, and the song was just a beautiful way to end this game
this was the first "real game" i feel like i've played in a long time. Start to finish, like discovering something new entirely, a well written story, amazing gameplay. Shits got me hooked and its personally my game of the year
@@xRoycex gameplay wasn't that good.movement and combos are heavily restricted in comparison even to dmc 3, let alone 5.It's like square was going for a dmc feel but got cold feet and left it as a wet blanket of a gameplay system.Not strategic or thrilling enough. Like they could've made the eikons like weapons from dmc 5 but all they are is 2 (technically three) different abilities each.
@@xRoycex ah yes, because you must preselect every game you want to play and can't just play it because it looks cool, and can't be disappointed with it afterwards either.
I started this game on Christmas and it took me 4 months to beat it. Not only did this song hit me hard in the ending, it made me remember the funny, happy, and infuriating moments in my gameplay. But most importantly, the depressing and sad moments meant a lot to me. I’m still surprised this game wasn’t nominated for GotY.
Even beating this game twice, I cried both times. I love the characters in this game. Clive is so well done and his character arc and progression as the hero is so good too me. Everyone in the game was so well done.
So this is where those lyrics were from. Way way back, Soken posted an image on his Twitter of a studio with the lyrics to this song on a piece of paper by the camera. I always assumed it would be a song in FFXIV.
I’m so glad I stayed unspoiled for the game. I haven’t finished many games, I don’t know why I have such trouble doing it, but just pushing through and hitting every side quest made me love this game so much, and the ending genuinely devastated me for the rest of the nigh.
I adore that you can interpret this song and Moongazing as being about the moon and the red star Metia respectively. It's like they're singing to each other, longing for each other, lamenting on how destiny will always keep them apart. The way it all ties back to Clive and Jill's relationship is such gorgeous symbolism...I wish they got the happy ending that they deserved.
Yeah same. But even though they didn't get the happy ending they deserved I feel like Clive giving up his life to create a better world free of magic makes the ending that much more meaningful and impactful. Bittersweet yet beautiful and poetic.
@@yomomomom4495it’s still under a lot of theory and speculation, but I truly believe Clive survived. Only his hand turned to stone, while the rest of his body was fine. You saw how CID had stone on his arm and he was just fine. This game’s open ending leave so much open for what the DLC will bring. As for Joshua and Dion, Dion I do believe survived as Dragoons cannot take fall damage(apparently, never knew that), and Joshua, I’m pretty sure he’s passed due to what was happening to him after the fight with Typhoon.
i showed the ending to my mum, knowing she is a fan of music like this, losely telling her the context and when the video ended she said "he survived right?"
Just finished the game finally since it came to pc, probably the hardest i've cried over any video game ending, seeing Jill and Torgal heartbroken was crushing. Thank you Yoshi P, Soken, and all the amazing voice actors and developers/other contributors who brought back Final Fantasy to its former glory. 14 and 16 have really brought the series back from the brink.
Most powerful and impacting ending in any video game, in history. I've played far too many games in my life, including all of the FFs. This game is a classic and will forever be remembered.
I missed the flower side quest on my playthrough so I didn't get the symbolism of the 'forever, my treasure' lyrics. It's so tragic. It reminds me of my great grandmother telling me of the 'love of her life' that died when she was only 32. My Great Grandfather was not the love of her life and as a child that was so confusing to me. How could she love someone more than the man she had children with? It always stuck with me because the way her face lit up when she was remembering him was an expression I never saw from her. At 96 years old her face lit up like she was 32 again. She still loved him after that many years and that many life experiences. As an adult I get it. And it makes this ending so, so tragic. Adult and realistic despite all the magic and Gods.
I have to waited a whole year, waiting that FFXVI came out for PCs. This is the evening while I have finished it. My heart still cry, because I thought that XV had a sad ending, but XVI finale is a storm of sadness and melancholy right into the soul!
This song hits so hard for me given my scottish fold would sit next to me while i played this game and a day after i beat it he passed and on the ride from the vet this played via my youtube music......needless to say i pulled over and just cried..... Miss you still little buddy ill see u again someday 💓 💗
When this song came out after the ending, I cried endlessly. This music breaks my heart. Even if someone who doesn't know the game content hears it, he will cry.
Gav realizing and just taking it in there with his head down for a minute really sent me over the edge. After all they'd been through, from when he first met an unfeeling Clive obsessed with nothing to revenge, to the day that the light returned to Clive's eyes when he reached out to save Gav, to the years they spent together as Clive's best man. Torgal was really bad but Gav got me the worst for sure.
The most heart-breaking story I have ever experienced in my life. Clive and Jill are the best fictional characters ever in my book, and I've read a lot of books.
Actual pain. I thought nothing after Endwalker in FF14 could break me in this franchise. Then FF16 came out...absolute masterpiece of a game. Hope they make more like this.
It's been almost a year since I beat FF XVI. I started a new save few days ago. Still not over the ending. XV and XVI endings made me cry. I love it when a game has a so GOOD story it makes you emotional. Fucking love this game and FF in general!
I just beat the game and I can't remember the last time an ending broke me like this. When Clive looks at the moon and says "Can you see it too Jill?" and Jill seeing the star die and realizing he's gone. It's so powerful and sad at the same time.
@@loganthevillager9176 I’m talking about of how crazy the series got after the success of X. Corse we had a prequel to VII, as well as a Remake. While I think World is ok. While during these last few years, we had Kingdom Hearts, which was a massive success.
this game and this whole franchise has given us some great theme songs to ever exist on the face of this planet. Especially this game was phenomenal with theme songs , background musics and visuals to match them. After such a long time, I have got a role playing game that I can say I would be playing again and again even if decades pass by.
I just finished yesterday and I keep crying like I lost a family member lol😂, this video represents perfectly the love from Jill and Clive that cannot be spend together due to Clive’s fate… well done for bringing all these pieces together and subscribed!
@@lordmusician Joshua died he literally said that his body is too far gone. The flames of the Phoenix can heal but the spirit needs rest.Joshua pretty much said he was going to die. Clive got rid of the magic,so no magic means no aether and no curse. Plus he the only one who could of came up with the book name final fantasy because of his fight with Ultima he said this is your fantasy and we will be it's final witness, something like that, that alone is enough to prove Clive is alive. Joshua's body didn't wash up on the beach and the place got engulfed in flames and Joshua had no protection since he was already dead.Clive wrote the book we saw at the ending.
@@erxpz if we are going to quote what they say then , Joshua said that Because of him going to die and give the power to Clive… Clive after battling Ultima clearly you could see giving life to Joshua.. after that Clive used his last power to destroy the last Crystal which he clearly stated “even if brings the end of me …. After that on the beach you could clearly see that he is the last person that will die with the curse. Doesn’t matter if Joshua body wasn’t there, that will be speculation on your part. Another hint was Jill looking at the sky and saw the star fading, which made her realise Clive died… even Gav quoted “that’s what cid wanted … that’s what both wanted “ this alone already confirms the death of Clive.. why Jill would be crying so hard and even Clive’s dog felt that, another thing you can’t ignore the signs ….Joshua was there in the final battle, he didn’t kill ultima, but witnessed most of the events before his death, when resurrected he could just figure it out that his brother killed the Ultima boss since there was no more powers for anyone
BEAUTIFUL song. Have played through the ending 3x now and it makes me cry each time 😢 FF16 is a FANTASTIC game and I honestly thought I wouldn’t connect with the characters and the story nearly as much as I have. Thank you, Square Enix.
Didnt play this song and don't know the characters but im crying anyway. FF has a way of doing that to you for sure. Same happened with ff13-2, with yuel's theme
''Can you see it too, Jill?'' BROKE ME. The ending got me bawling like no game ever did, truly a masterpiece of game, the OST, the writing, EVERYTHING, deserved to win that award. This is my third fav song from the game, first being Away and second Find the Flame, Soken deserves more appreciation. Still.. I refuse to believe that Clive is dead.
@@KevinDurantBurnerAccount They are officially releasing a PC version, we simply don't know when. Last I heard, they were finishing the optimization around march, but they didn't say anything else.
One of, if not THE best game I've ever played. What a journey. I honestly did not expect Clive to actually die at the end. It made the game 10x better though. But also 100x more depressing.
@@DarkStarGaming065 Clive shouldn't survive. Clives story is the story that many men got to experience; dying alone with nobody to help them or comfort them. That is life. Men get to die saving their loved ones and the rest get to watch from the distance. 10,000,000+ Clives died during WW1 and WW2 and nobody cries for them. They had their own Jills and Torgals to fight and die for, and nobody will ever remember them. Such is a Mans duty.
@@Sneedmeisterand why shouldn't he survive? Because of war always being tragic? I think their world has been tragic enough and I think Clive and Jill deserved a happy ending together. I'd say they made the ending the way it is so we all can have our own way the game ended based on hints we picked up, because if you did all side quests there are plenty that hints to Clive surviving. The ending being narrated by Clive and the book being written alone is a big hint.
@@pleasedontkillme1185 you're a child and don't understand why things even become tropes to begin with. yes, the hero sacrificing his life for everyone elses future is a much more powerful narrative device than "everyone lives happily ever after"
A proper romance and a beautiful game, don’t care what the haters say, especially on these days I’m so tired of the FFVII triangle is fuckin exhausting
This is what ive been waiting for!!! It reminded me so much of the kind of music hideo kojima put in metal gear and it felt so fitting. Also sounds like a bond theme too. Really shows how much that this game was more like a playable movie and I love it!

How many of us here broke down when Torgal howled at the moon? Was already steadily crying, but then he howled and my heart completely shattered…
Nah, I was a mess starting from Clive and Joshua’s memories, Clive’s hand turning into stone was what destroyed my heart and it got worse and worse with every minute that passed
Oh I break down well before that consistently.
I finished the game a few hours ago. As soon as Torgal howled I broke down and haven't stopped crying since.

This song broke me in 16 thousand pieces, if you read the last letter Jill sends to Clive it hits even harder reading the lyrics.
😭😭😭
Which letter was it?
@@JaskuraLunaris Correct, The first chain side quest is “Where There's a Will” if im not mistaken, you get it from Joshua at the hideaway.

Jill broke my heart. One of the most beautiful character arcs in the entire series. She just communicates a sense of quite suffering and alienation.
WTF is with FF and love stories these days? Always go with the depressing stuff.
Can't we ever get another Cecil and Rosa? They even had a kid.
“Can you see it too… Jill?”
Broke me
"And thus, did our journey end."

@@erxpz if we are going to quote what they say then , Joshua said that Because of him going to die and give the power to Clive… Clive after battling Ultima clearly you could see giving life to Joshua.. after that Clive used his last power to destroy the last Crystal which he clearly stated “even if brings the end of me …. After that on the beach you could clearly see that he is the last person that will die with the curse. Doesn’t matter if Joshua body wasn’t there, that will be speculation on your part.
Another hint was Jill looking at the sky and saw the star fading, which made her realise Clive died… even Gav quoted “that’s what cid wanted … that’s what both wanted “ this alone already confirms the death of Clive.. why Jill would be crying so hard and even Clive’s dog felt that, another thing you can’t ignore the signs ….Joshua was there in the final battle, he didn’t kill ultima, but witnessed most of the events before his death, when resurrected he could just figure it out that his brother killed the Ultima boss since there was no more powers for anyone
Such a beautiful song for the ending of this game. Thanks for the upload 💖
Incredible voice. Simply mesmerizing
i wish i could forget this game and play it all over again and cry even harder
wow ive never had a song bring me to tears before. i havent even played the game, this song is just amazing. props.
Truly beautiful song, it heals my soul listening to it.
Also very FFXIV-ish
my first FF and it broke my heart
Try FF 15, 10, or 7 next. They’re my favorites along with 16.
If you want a good love story like 16 did try 8 also!
listening to this from time to time to relieve the pain
I don't even play FF, this soundtrack is beyond perfect.
I mean, FF16 won the Best Sountrack award at the game awards last year.
"Forever, my treasure. My star" this song absolutely broke me.
BEAUTIFUL song. Have played through the ending 3x now and it makes me cry each time 😢 FF16 is a FANTASTIC game and I honestly thought I wouldn’t connect with the characters and the story nearly as much as I have. Thank you, Square Enix.
Clive was a good person he did what was right through and through till his end😢
Didnt play this song and don't know the characters but im crying anyway. FF has a way of doing that to you for sure. Same happened with ff13-2, with yuel's theme
When those first few chords hit, my soul leaves my body a little bit.
I can't even listen to this song man. Every time I come back to it I break down. Fuck this game and fuck this song I love them so much
This is one of the few games to actually make me shed tears and partly because this song is so damn beautiful….GOTY material
Uma pena , não ter recebido o merecido respeito.
So unfortunate it didn't win GOTY. It was my GOTY. It's my game of my lifetime in all honesty. Still glad it at least won best OST though.
I can see Jill writing this song dedicated to Clive after the events of ff16. 😢
''Can you see it too, Jill?'' BROKE ME. The ending got me bawling like no game ever did, truly a masterpiece of game, the OST, the writing, EVERYTHING, deserved to win that award. This is my third fav song from the game, first being Away and second Find the Flame, Soken deserves more appreciation.
Still.. I refuse to believe that Clive is dead.
This song is on repeat at the hideout. Amazing, beautiful, perfection!
I never played this game and this song had me tearing up on the trains in Japan.
You’ll be crying even more when you finish the game….😢
@@loganthevillager9176 once is comes out ok other consoles it’s a must cop from me.
@@KevinDurantBurnerAccount Unfortunately, it’s a PS5 exclusive.
@@loganthevillager9176 I thought the sales were really bad for this 16 and 7 so they’re terminating the exclusivity? If not I’m sick 😭
@@KevinDurantBurnerAccount They are officially releasing a PC version, we simply don't know when.
Last I heard, they were finishing the optimization around march, but they didn't say anything else.
One of, if not THE best game I've ever played. What a journey. I honestly did not expect Clive to actually die at the end. It made the game 10x better though. But also 100x more depressing.
There’s lots of rumors Clive survived, but we won’t know until the DLC arrives
@@DarkStarGaming065 Clive shouldn't survive. Clives story is the story that many men got to experience; dying alone with nobody to help them or comfort them. That is life. Men get to die saving their loved ones and the rest get to watch from the distance.
10,000,000+ Clives died during WW1 and WW2 and nobody cries for them. They had their own Jills and Torgals to fight and die for, and nobody will ever remember them. Such is a Mans duty.
@@Sneedmeisterand why shouldn't he survive?
Because of war always being tragic?
I think their world has been tragic enough and I think Clive and Jill deserved a happy ending together.
I'd say they made the ending the way it is so we all can have our own way the game ended based on hints we picked up, because if you did all side quests there are plenty that hints to Clive surviving.
The ending being narrated by Clive and the book being written alone is a big hint.
@@pleasedontkillme1185 you're a child and don't understand why things even become tropes to begin with.
yes, the hero sacrificing his life for everyone elses future is a much more powerful narrative device than "everyone lives happily ever after"
@@SneedmeisterHey cmon don’t start name calling over a game
I wish i could listen to this song without crying 😭
A proper romance and a beautiful game, don’t care what the haters say, especially on these days I’m so tired of the FFVII triangle is fuckin exhausting
The song is Jill deepest feelings for Clive... her song for him
This is what ive been waiting for!!! It reminded me so much of the kind of music hideo kojima put in metal gear and it felt so fitting. Also sounds like a bond theme too. Really shows how much that this game was more like a playable movie and I love it!
Reminds me of "can't say goodbye to yesterday"
4:02 oh man that end is beautiful
Just finished the game, and man did this song hit! 🔥
This music broke me with FF16 ending.
This is such a romantic song! ❤
Ice and Flames cannot be Together. 😢
so nice video thanks! im not crying .. damm Soken!!
Still cant get over this game, been a while since i beat it but still like watching these videos
ITS FINALLY ON SPOTIFY
Es un juegazo, y es injusto que hagan críticas malas a un juego que ni siquiera los que lo critican lo han jugado, y sobre todo los youtubers que se dedican a desprestigiar solo por qué no sale en su plataforma
this song man...
I hear this song so bad, because the remember ending and saddest, broke me hit harder
A SKY OF SCATTERED TEARS
A THOUSAND YEARS APART
SHOULD THEY FADE
This song has yet to fail at brining me to tears.
Reminds me of "Fly me to the Moon"
Can you see it too......jill
