I will never forget the day 1 experience that I got with 5.3 All those months of Covid hitting the world that delayed the patch’s release Going into *the end of Shadowbringers* ready to take down one more Ascian for good Then coming out having been blown away by the trial followed by crying for Elidibus Addendum: that Lyna moment gets me tearing up every time
Having watched your Endwalker journey, going back to watch Shadowbringers is like that Simpsons episode. "You can see the exact moment her heart breaks!"
I played 5.3 on day of release, during the height of Covid. I cried 14 times (appropriate) XD. But even now, today, the Crystal Raha scene STILL gets me, even though I know our boi is fine. Elidibus too "The rains have ceased, and we have been graced with another beautiful day... but you are not here to see it" Edit from later on? Future Sora? idk: I was apparently aiming for my 14 cry count watching this LMFAO. Cried during Elidibus, Crystal Raha, Seto, Runar, Ryne bye and Lyna bye, scions waking up, and then our catboi coming back LOL. I truly wish I could erase my memories of the story and play it through for the first time. Subscribing cause I wanna see your journey through EW. I had a bet and cry counter going with my friends. They all said diff amount of times I'd cry. My counter hit the 70s until I got to the final zone, then I just, gave up counting XD
Yeah, he hadn't had almost any character development until post ShB but in that short amount of time they made him not just a compelling antagonist but one that you could empathize with to a great degree. They did spectacularly in the writing for the characters here.
There were no winners in Shadowbringers. Only pain. Lots of emotional pain. This expansion made me cry more than any other. Even years later I still cry seeing these again. I hope you enjoy Endwalker as much as you did Shadowbringers.
Ah yes, the entire postpatch of unmitigated E M O T I O N A L D A M A G E, back to back to back. And the content that solidifies Shadowbringers as one of the best Final Fantasy titles in history.
You just gave me the energy I've been needing, because I've been missing this game. Shadowbringers is my absolute favorite story and it was so fun watching you feel so many emotions I went though. I'm a vampire, lol. And I screamed too when Emet showed up to save us at the Seat of Sacrifice. I whooped so loud, it scared my dog. 5.3 is the best patch in the whole game. But get ready for more emotions in Endwalker!
I hope you enjoy the hell out of Endwalker, it's one of those rare expansions which manage to retroactively make your memories of Shadowbringers even better (frankly I consider them one big mega expansion, since they compliment each other so well).
Graha is easily my favorite of the Scions, while they're all willing to sacrifice themselves for the greater good, Graha spent 100 years waiting for you, and even at the end of base Shadowbringers, he was willing to take all the light you had to burden and die in the 13th with it
In the Hero's Gauntlet, in the final stretch to the last boss, there's a small chance that one of the light phantoms summoned is Hildebrand... being Hildebrand.
The moment you said you had no more tears, I started giggling like a madman, for I knew that was going to be proven untrue. Shadowbringers knew just exactly WHERE to hit you for maximum feels damage. Also, your editor cut out the best scene. Poor Estinien, learning the hard way not to mix up the twins.
@Rhelaza Estinien is no Einstein, that's for sure. But in all fairness, Alphy never mentioned to him that he had a sister, nevermind a twin sister at that.
When I've finished ShB and patches for a first time it became one of my favorite narratives in games ever. And it's MMO! I was happy and with a little bit of worry of how they could top up this masterpiece in EW
First off, Jack wasn't THE Warrior of Light, he is Garland :p. SECOND. You might already be aware but if not, Elidibus's boss theme is a vocalized mixed version of Neath Dark Waters. Absolute banger of a song.
a tipp for your next active time event. besides clicking, you can also just place all eigth fingers on the home row of your keyboard and just start spamming. this ususally gives you more actions per second.
For future reference, any time they do that "active time maneuver", you don't have to click. just mash homerow on keyboard. asdfjkl; over and over. it makes it SO much easier
i am a big fan of daniel
Verily.
Damndaniel. Fundaniel. Funmango.
Forge Ahead :)
Jesse, can you share whatever tool you use to find new people who play through xiv?
@@Ventus777777 The TH-cam Algorithm is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unusual.
Came here to find the Jesse comment, was not disappointed
HOW DOES HE KEEP DOING IT
Praise the algorithm 🙏!
Ishikawa in 5.0: "I am going to emotionally destroy them :)"
Ishikawa in 5.3: "I'll stop when I'm done :)"
I will never forget the day 1 experience that I got with 5.3
All those months of Covid hitting the world that delayed the patch’s release
Going into *the end of Shadowbringers* ready to take down one more Ascian for good

as is tradition, i am here to drink deep of these tears, and im not surprised to see jesse cox is already here too
"She's so cute" you say at the beginning but she's about to go through a looooooot of emotions.
your shadowbringers vids have been such a joy to watch, thank you for taking the time and effort to edit these so wonderfully and whimsically
;u;
Opening the triple triad list to remember lore was just great
triple triad is one of my fav things to do in ffxiv i can't believe it came in handy like that skdjdhfkfb

GET DOWN STAIRS KIDS! WE'RE EATING DELICIOUS EMOTIONAL STEAKS TODAY!
How amazing it was for a single patch to make me go from not giving crap about Elidibus to crying over him like a baby
Yeah, he hadn't had almost any character development until post ShB but in that short amount of time they made him not just a compelling antagonist but one that you could empathize with to a great degree. They did spectacularly in the writing for the characters here.
IT'S FINALLY HERE.
I'M FROTHING AT THE MOUTH FOR ENDWALKER!!
There were no winners in Shadowbringers. Only pain. Lots of emotional pain. This expansion made me cry more than any other. Even years later I still cry seeing these again. I hope you enjoy Endwalker as much as you did Shadowbringers.
Being a Lalafell in a cutscene is such a blessing.
verily!
It can be so hard to take seriously sometimes though.. D:
Ah yes, the entire postpatch of unmitigated E M O T I O N A L D A M A G E, back to back to back.
And the content that solidifies Shadowbringers as one of the best Final Fantasy titles in history.
P.D: Nothing bad happens in the Sorrow of Werlyt :)

But get ready for more emotions in Endwalker!
Oh hell yes, I can't wait for your endwalker journey!
Thanks for feeding my emotional vampirism
5.3 Broke me the first round and re opened the pain when i went through with my alt. I was legit bawling when this was current content
Great to see you continuing on your journey and glad to see you enjoyed ShB so much. Remember, don't be sad; A smile better suits a hero.
Technically its John Final Fantasy, and Jack Garland (Chaos) but I like where you heart is LOL
Its the jack bros! lol Jack Final Fantasy and Jack Chaos Garland lol
I hope you enjoy the hell out of Endwalker, it's one of those rare expansions which manage to retroactively make your memories of Shadowbringers even better (frankly I consider them one big mega expansion, since they compliment each other so well).
Oh yes, what a nice treat for a sunday afternoon. Thank you!
Watching these new WArriors of Light go through 5.3 will always be the best moment of FF XIV!
Congrats on completing Post-Shadowbringers!
Endwalker is such a wild ride, you will fall in love with the game even more! :)
Can't wait!
Looks like Primal YoshiP was well-fed by this one. So many tears. He will be pleased.
13:15 I love how most people headcanon that their WoL eats the forbidden candy LMAO
yayyy 5.3!
now i get to see you cry like i did! :D
5.3 really was some of the most epic stuff in all of Final Fantasy
Graha is easily my favorite of the Scions, while they're all willing to sacrifice themselves for the greater good, Graha spent 100 years waiting for you, and even at the end of base Shadowbringers, he was willing to take all the light you had to burden and die in the 13th with it

OMG NO WAY??? LMAO

Shadowbringers knew just exactly WHERE to hit you for maximum feels damage.
Also, your editor cut out the best scene. Poor Estinien, learning the hard way not to mix up the twins.
you're so right idk why i didn't keep that estinien scene in ;u; poor estinky never stood a chance against alisaie
@Rhelaza Estinien is no Einstein, that's for sure. But in all fairness, Alphy never mentioned to him that he had a sister, nevermind a twin sister at that.
Great video :D
you can tell you put alot of love into it
thank you!! ;u;
The flower Runar hands over is the same that Y'Shtola has in hands at the ARR Cinematic :)
THE FUTURE OF TROLLIES IS BRIGHTER THAN EVER!!!

Dangit. You make me cry too.😭
soooooo damm good! Friggen love shadowbringers
I know it's sad shadowbringers is over... but the good news is, It Gets Better
ahhhh so great. ❤
There is a reason why shb is considered the best expansion in the game.
a tipp for your next active time event. besides clicking, you can also just place all eigth fingers on the home row of your keyboard and just start spamming. this ususally gives you more actions per second.
omfg finding out the name of an NPC via Triple Triad Cards is so goated. ♥♥
42:41 Rhelaza: "We didn't win unless you die!" 😭
I'll never get tired of watching people get absolutely destroyed by 5.3.
Glad you understand the truth of rynegaia. I would've had to unsubscribe
i'm forever a rynegaia truther o7
once more, the vampires ate well! ;)
1:52 Me whenever I see a Fandango character on my screen 🤣
@1:07:43 Tfw you realize the most hated villain has the most punchable face.
God, you still have all of Endwalker to go through!
She's already beat it and Dawntrail
The videos just take super long to edit
1:23:00 Now you know why it's called ENDWALKER
Oh good, you made it through Shadowbringers. You're still not ready for The Walk, but time runs short. You must Forge Ahead.

For future reference, any time they do that "active time maneuver", you don't have to click. just mash homerow on keyboard. asdfjkl; over and over. it makes it SO much easier
Rhelaza singlehandedly has made me appreciate this game!! Thanks for being such a passionate creator!! 🥹🫶
