i thought it was meteion until now tbh. the second sentence says they are carrying our song, and she is the one that sings. neither we or zenos do but i guess it could metaphorically mean that we are taking everyones hopes with us?.
fun story: when me and my friends got to this part of the fight (the four of us), people from our FC who'd already finished the story joined in for this trial. our resident tank requested to be allowed to main tank the fight, bc he has main character desires and needed that serotonin from being The Tank of the final trial. as we were zoning in, i jokingly said "haha, make sure we all put limit break on our bars, we might need it" well, the part where our tank needed to use the limit break started up. i realised what was happening and glanced in the party chat to see our co-tank, the one who'd already done this trial, say "it's all yours" my friend didn't realise what that meant at all. i thought it might click for him, give it a few seconds. the timer counts down to 5. the words "transcend your limits!" was popping up on screen. the three of us in discord started YELLING HIS NAME over vc because he STILL HADN'T HIT THE BUTTON. the party chat was LIGHTING UP with "PRESS THE BUTTON, OH MY GOD" you hear him go "AGH WHAT" and the frantic scrambling as he was trying to locate limit break on his hotbar. he did hit it in time. we were fine. we were laughing so fucking hard afterwards.
Yep. Unbenounced to us, we had already been using dynamos to beat world ending threats on practically a monthly basis, and that was on a world flooded by aether.
She’ll pull out the death chicken in her 69th phase that does 420,666.69 dmg and puts a instant doom on anyone who can survive. And a 800% healing penalty. Plus you only do 1dmg every hit.

"Tumbling down to the never" is Zenos interrupting because he's peeved that you get to sing Maker's Ruin and Blue can sing Footfalls when he's the one carrying you through the encounter.
The fact that Zenos carries you into the battle playing an audible testament to all the calamities you ended prior to the Endsinger was badass. That it then gets followed up by a remix of the main Endwalker theme as the Scions give you that one final push is brilliant.
“She dances on the wind higher.” , Meteion on her first flight into the stars. It’s our theme song, but it’s also hers. Gotta take this kid home from this bad place.
Same with DRG, I had already died twice from the moon attacks, plus wiped a good amount from the final dungeon. So when this happened bruh I was on cloud 9 HITTING ALL MY BUTTONS.
My head-canon after this fight to any and all threats the WOL faces: I like to think in the back of the WOL's mind they are thinking "See, that would be intimidating if you were...well intimidating, lol"
"this easily" is disregarding all the hardships the WoL and Venat had to get through to reach this point. Depression sucks; but nothing will ever improve unless YOU CHOOSE to take that next step forward, and every step after that. If you're still alive and have the strength to take the next step and keep living; do it. Make your will evident for all to see; and if you feel lost and bereft of hope; know that there are many others across Earth that share in your struggles, and want to see you continue to live; just as they hope you will them to live as well. If there's a will, there's a way; and even if you can't feel Hope's embrace; know that its there, that your struggle to live beyond despair can serve as a torch to light the path for others; that your decision to live will be a beacon of good will for others to set an example by.
ngl, when that black screen happened? Since I was playing during early access. I was despairing, waiting for "You have been disconnected from the server". So when the crew popped up, the amount of hope, happiness and serotonin I felt was immeasurable.
My god, I just realized during the prayer scene that Thancred and Y'shtola's shots are an almost exact duplicate of their prayer scenes when summoning the 12 in the ARR trailer. I think even the timing of the transition between their shots is the same. Alise and G'raha have close poses to Yda(Lyse) and Papalymo, though not exactly. I love seeing callbacks like this!
The references to 1.0 made it a nice circle to the overall storyline. The recreation of the boat scene from 1.0 when you're headed to Sharlayan was fantastic.
Nolifed MSQ early runs, yeah, everyone still didn't know the mechanics and no guides existed because they were early. First wipe, figured out you needed to LB the thing. Figured you needed to save it and promptly shat ourselves when some DPS got greedy, DPS thought he fucked up too. Then the other tank sees the LB3 came back and pressed it.
zeno was the best villain, and i loved this ending when and he literaly was allowed to take power from the mother crystal to take the dragon form and assist you all so he can have his rematch. Im glad the fight was a solo instanced, loved it, its how it should of been. Wont get another villain as good as him
Alright so this was a few years back, so I apologize if I'm remembering this incorrectly. But there was a beast tribe quest you can do for I think the Qitari (Can do it right now I imagine. It's one of the randomized ones and not story-related), where they mention how there are certain people who can hear the ancients singing and playing music as they travel the land. I remember thinking to myself "Oh this must be the LAHEE lady". But then I realized that it could very well be literally everywhere. Every song sung by these supposed "ancients". Here's another thing to ruminate about: The dev team is "canonically" in universe, because we were able to meet them during one of the seasonal events a few years ago. They're very, very vague about how they're connected of course, but they did give small hints of things to come, like Blue Mage if I remember correctly (This was even more years ago lol. Though I'm sure there are vids of it on youtube) This leads me to believe that the "ancients" the Qitari are talking about are in fact the devs themselves, and they're creating the soundtrack for our journey. We, the WoL, are LITERALLY hearing this music as we go on about our adventures. Not just us the player, but the WoL themselves. ...Of course, the Qitari that spoke of this also mentioned something about this being impossible and that the people hearing this stuff are probably insane, so there ya go. Either we're listening to the voices and instruments of beings beyond playing music just for us, or we all belong in an insane asylum.
I remember playing this fight for the first time when the ost started play my brain went ape mode and I was playing with full force better than I ever have 😂
Too be honest FF14 was so good to play. I am a grown man that copes well with sadness and hasn't shed many (if any) tears in about 2 years. I literally cannot play the final trial because I am looking at it through wet eyes and cant follow mechanics.
When Song of Hope started and me and my FC mates were doing this for the first time together we all had very vocal reactions. Warcries. A very earned moment.
It really makes you wonder how they could possibly do anything to top defeating an omnipotent embodiment of despair inside a dead star at the edge of the universe.
They don't need to "top" it. They already said after this we're going back to more relaxing "small stakes" adventures to enjoy. Emet eluded to us fulfilling the role of Azem; that should be our goal now. We ALREADY saved the universe, there's no reason to go back to that level of Stakes just yet, not until they spend the next expansion or two setting up something big.
@@Sneedmeister they actually do need to find a way to top it at some point if they want future threats to feel credible, since FFXIV's progression is linear. And in terms of story, what this means is that to be a credible threat to someone who's defeated an entity capable of wiping out all life in the universe, they need to somehow be more dangerous to our character than that entity was in some way. I'm not expecting it immediately, but it does need to be built up to and happen at some point in the future for any higher level content to make sense as higher level content from a story persepctive.
Even though its true in the end it was the power of friendship. I cant help but remember the words of THE MANHWA "FFF TrashHero" where the main character takes pity of the middle boss and says "Its sad, you got defeated by the Coward power of love and friendship"
Endsinger: NOOO the universe is cruel and hope is only causing more pain WoL: Y but you hear the mf bange in the background tho? isn't that worth living for?
Im not joking when I say I was literally crying so much after the phase transition with the scions praying that I couldn't see the screen because i was too busy doing my rotation to wipe my eyes. Monk gang.
i was too focused on the actual fight at first, but my brother mentioned that the boss was literally flailing at us by the end desperate to finish the fight. Between that and the presence of so many pearls in her design, symbols of tears, the fight just became depressing. Cool, REALLY cool, but depressing in retrospect.
Seeing as how we pretty much beat up every known concept of what can be called a god and took their lunch money, I'd call it appropriate to refer to the WoL as "something else" and "build different".
@@nephilima3956 Well we didn't beat the twelve, although I hope we don't have to, but we're probably going to know more about them soon enough if Emet is right.

@@shadowbird25 I cannot wait for the Endwalker's Alliance Raid Series!
@@shadowbird25 the twelve is the first twelve dev of FFXIV, so they would prolly forbidden us to auto attack and spam multi-million-polygon flower pots to fight us.
Counting the sheer amount of hopes and prayers on our shoulders from across the planet, it wouldn't take much to wind up like SoS Elidibus
titan just showing up to yell at em at the end
How OP am I? HOW OP AM I?! I had a bowl of frosted flakes for breakfast...without any milk 😈
and with no bowl. Heck I didn't even open the box.
Damn you.... Damn you allllllll!
This video had me crying and laughing at the same time... or was i laughing and crying? LUL
the embodiment of the end of all things, not just for the source, but everything
vs
the boys
"Where lies.... happiness?"
Happiness is stored in the balls of course!
I love that with each 'prayer' of our friends, we get a buff and our damage is just out of this realm...God this game is so god damn good
Ngl, when the transition happened and the screen came back, I could only envision my WoL doing the anime neck pop thing and look up all cliche like: That all you got?
That titan moment 1:32 !!!
That fight was so beautiful and badass!
Bro was like: LETS FO!!
Never thought endwalker would end with fighting an avatar of Shar
I need to be explained of this reference Sir.
@@TheMaxCloud Shar is a D&D greater goddess of loss, despair, whispers in darkness, and hopelessness. Her ultimate goal is to drag planets into the Plane of Negativity ( only the undead and things that never knew life roam there ). Our black-haired song bird behaves exactly as an avatar of Shar would.
@@epiccthulu ooohhhh
@@TheMaxCloud … yea…. I’m a nerd x.x
@@epiccthulu which explains where this boss come from, yoshi played most MMORPG games i knew so many stories and bosses.
The real challenge is seeing the attacks through all the tears.
Virgin Doom Demon "This can only end in despair and desolation!"
Chad Warrior of Light and Hope "Yeah, yours."
I've not felt compelled to share a TH-cam video to my family in a while. You broke the cycle. Must share the love
I missed this part of the fight, got disconnected after the middle cutscene.
Quest 1: Save cat.
Final quest:
K I L L
G O D
Quest 1: merk 3 ladybugs, squirrels, and bees.
Final quest: FIGHT FEELINGS
I still have some shards to fuse with. ^.-
We fuse with every WOL across all shards and become full azem and walk as a god among men. Calling it now.
@@alms07 can't. That would mean we can't use dynamis anymore. Would like for it to happen but won't
@@alms07 if that happen the we will become exactly as amourotine with godly aether capability but zero on dynamis = we cant cannonically doing LB anymore
@@specialnewb9821 I mean I was halfway joking but we as the main character have plot armor. They would write in a reason we still tap into dynamis.
I'll never forget the other party members losing their shit, chat log was filled with 'lets fucking gooooo' ❤🥺 good memories
I love the way she does the line right after the mini cutscene. "What is this defiance?" She's like surprised, mad and a bit scared.
She was so used to everyone immediately folding and laying down to die that the second someone said “no” she actually had no idea what to do
That is every fight in FFXIV ever not just this one
My favorite fight because here YOU go enrage.
gotta love seeing spoilers on my feed :)
it's been out for months now
thumbnail is kind of a spoiler
1:53 lmfao
I absolutely can't wait for the EX.
Oh me either. Every time I get this fight in roulette I get hype AF. everything about this fight even on Normal gets my blood pumping.
@@alms07 Probably because its "spectacle-the fight", the planetary destruction is also a really fun mechanic at least in normal so far so it may change in ex, Zodiarks flip went from "hehe, funny trick boy" to "Oh fck, where the snake at?!?!"
1:57 This is sus.... vote him out!
I knew it! I knew Twitter would become the enemy all along! Yoshida shows us a possible future! Haha, love this game! ❤
