If you have any questions you want me to answer, check out the community tab on my channel. I'm collecting some questions for Q&A :)
Yeah I have a question: Why do you have to make me sad this late at night?
JUST THANK YOU
The transition from Moenbryda to her parents’ hugging Urianger was amazing. Really caught me off guard 😭
I immediately started crying again..
That scene in the game made me break down into sobs.
And the transition was so good.
I remember when I first started and had a laugh when he talked.
Losing myself when Moenbryda died.
And then actually crying with that scene with her parents...I still cry at it.
there a sidequest in new sharlayan including another ones parents. ;)
I was just about to say this, i had to collect myself because i was not prepared for that lol
I cried when Urianger met her parents and now I cried again at that transition
Maybe it was just me, but Endwalker came at the exact right point in my life. World events, personal events, all of it ... needed an answer to stand in defiance.
No, your not alone. With how the world was. We all needed this. This story is amazing. I’m even a story skipper who went back and read up on everything that I skipped when shadowbringers was still in its cycle. This story is just amazing. And I love all these characters.
I remember sobbing at one specific scene in Thav in Endwalker Early release.
I've had a hard road these past few years, and as stupid as this might sound, this game and despite everything.. Has given me a lot of hope?
It makes me cry. A lot. My gf and I call it "crying fantasy" but.. It also helps me cope with a lot of RL shit.
It sure can be uplifting. That "there's a light at the end of such a deep darkness." thing I needed to hear then and now.
You're not alone.
Got out a multiple messy and (some more abusive then the previous) relationships, was single after a 6 year relationship that wasnt going anywhere, got covid from helping my cousin (who didn't believe he nor his child should get vaccinated, (even thought he's in contact with our grandmothr who's in her final stages of cancer, and wants to be around for 2023 to see her great grandchild say her name.) I got to the last 20 quests on Endwalker by this point. I was passively suicidal, not caring if the flu meds i was gulping every 4 hours over lapped from day ot day. I had lost my job in 2019, and had 2k left of my savings to just survive. I figured it'd be best for everyone if i didnt eat, then if i did go outside my room, then, it just decided one day that i'd finsh up my flu bottle, drink a days worth of medicine in one sitting and let my organs fail and be done with it all.
the peopel i loved wher eonly using me,and the being that didnt used me weren't able to talk to be beause of being infectious, luckily I never went through with it. it might feel like an answer when you hit you lowlest low, but it is a poor answer to give, because it's permenate.
When my father died due to covid i started coping with playing ffxiv again, had to catch up with all the post main msq of Stormblood, then the entirety of Shadowbringers and Endwalker. Best decision of my life this year, ngl
My dad had cancer during my play through of EW and it was a…..tough time getting through some of it but the part that made me actually ugly cry was when the soldier told Julius “it’s the little things that make life worth living”. I think it was at that moment I realized he was going to pass and I had to enjoy the little time I had left. That scene and the feelings I had stuck with me to this day. So I definitely see where your coming from.
I have only 2 words to describe what I felt watching this: "Emotional Damage"
And it was a 2 man tank buster
Plus points for putting Papalymo into this. I'm crying..
I miss the little guy so much qwq
Papalymo, my man :(
And then you meet Papa Papalymo over a sandwich delivery...
It still hurts so much...
FFXIV is truly an experience I wish I could go into blind again.
Never played the game myself but based on my understanding playing this game blind is nearly impossible. To play this game blind you need to basically swear off all social media which also includes CZcams.
@@lanceknightmare lol who even uses social media anymore?? thats so 2010 xD
@@lanceknightmare The community is incredibly good with hiding spoilers. SO it is possible to go in blind
@@boogusnutsack5926 🤓
I have been spoiled for everything onwards from Shadowbringers but at that time i didnt play the game and i really wanted more info on the cute redheaded catboy so really, i did it all to myself and tbh i dont regret it one bit. Everything still makes me cry like it did one year ago when i was dying over that elidibus scene at the end of SHB quickly followed by getting more info on said catboy. Boy was i in for a fucking ride.
The Moenbryda coming in to hug Urianger and it switched to her parents. It broke me. I cried.
you're not alone
I must be getting old because I'm crying at everything. When Minfilia left us without a leader, I didn't think she was actually dead. Figured we'd be coming to get her back eventually. Knowing she "lived" but sacrificed herself AGAIN before we had a chance to really casually talk and catch up as old friends hurt.
"it's the little things that make life worth living, don't you think?" get me every time
Oh no now I'm crying. The cut shot of Urianger getting hugged broke my heart again
I know it's been commented on a lot already but, as an editor myself, I cannot stress how much that cut from Moenbryda to her parents is literally genius. Incredible work ✨
I've never seen something so beautifully combine the entire journey from ARR to Endwalker.
15/10 crying
FFXIV - a journey that never ends, packed full of emotions that never fade.
Yeah, it's been worth it, Venat...it's been worth it.
Almost a year later and i still keep coming back to this and tearing up. Thank you for capturing all the emotions i felt after completing Endwalker, the end of a story ive been playing for the best part of a decade ❤
Same it's just such a masterful video and it absolutely captures the feeling of the journey ❣️
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I can’t stop replaying your videos and crying. They are so beautifully edited and just capture what the game has been about and synch everything up into one beautifully planned story.
I just love that this game can have so many moments like this but also have the Hillidbrand stuff too.
take a break from crying your eyes out in the msq and vist hilldibrand questline where you will laugh so hard you will forget the pain xD
@@theHyperion12 Or bang your head into the controller from the stupidity. But I suppose that's the point of the quests when one isn't aligned with the humor of it.
I do the same since a friend send me the link to the video. The video broke everything inside of me after the first watch and i'm happy someone catched the feeling of the game in one video.
A true worthy submission of "It's just a game." Genre. Honestly makes me want to slog through the game again. I can't imagine just picking up post stormblood to lead into shadowbringers (my fav expansion) I have to go through the whole journey. Like watching Lord of the Rings Extended edition. You're either in for the 12+hr experience or not at all.
I can't get over how beautifully done this video is. The pace at which you change scenes, the way you string seperate pieces of dialogue into a coherent train of thought. Meteion's "Yes, I can see them" and Elidibus speaking to the crystals and Moenbryda and her parents and not leaving Papalymo out.
I feel the need to comment on this now. I've watched this many times since the release of Endwalker, but recently in my depression and hopelessness - I've watched it a few times every day. Because Endwalker saved me and it will save me again. Because this story taught me that there is a brighter future and even when the weight of a thousand worlds weighs heavy... I can walk on. Thank you for making this GMV and summarizing some of my favorite parts of the story for me to remind myself over and over that amidst deepest despair, light everlasting.
We we're asked once how/why we can carry on underneath the weight of all we have been through.
It is for those we have lost and for those we can yet save.
Lyse second „thancred“ is so raw and honest it always breaks my heart.
This is a beautiful video and I watched it about a hundred times already
Been playing since forever and honestly forgot some of these story beats and just, god, it hits you when it's all presented like this
I've watched this about 10 times in the past 3 days. It's gorgeous.
learning and getting more backstory on Elidibus in the new panda stuff, has really made that scene where he is mourning over his friends hurt more then it did in 5.3...
They certainty have a way of making us feel every single person we kill, sooner or later. It's like the holy trinity. Emet-Selch, Elidibus and Zenos.
Gosetsu's sobbing always gets me, the way his voice shakes in grief...fuck it hurts.
WHY!? what did I ever do to you, to be given this masterpiece!?...got a 30yr old man crying at 1:20 in the morning 😭😭😭
I've been watching gmvs for decades now and this is by far one of the most powerful ones I have ever seen. Not heavy on the editing effects, but very strong on the impact.
E M O T I O N A L

"Okay, how many tears you want in that video?" - Yes.
This is the best song gmv combination I've ever witnessed. I damn near watch it daily.
did not expect a random FFXIV video on my recommended to make me start bawling like an absolute baby. bravo and well done
This is the one video I always come back to to remember, to relive, and to fall in love again.
This is stunning. It's like the essence of 14s story condensed into three and a half minutes... and boy does that make it hurt. 😭
Beautiful though.
man i think i come back and watch this like, once a week. such an amazing video and always makes me emotional
This is so beautiful. It condenses our journey over the last 9 years as one of the most beautiful and tear-enducing things I've ever watched.
I tend to rewatch this video from time to time, always tearing up a little, and smiling all the while
This video actually made me cry 😭 this is why final fantasy 14 is my favourite game of all time and why it stands out from all the other MMOs and RPGs I've played🥺
This made me cry soo much.. this was amazing. You have a gift, thank you for making this for us mourning Warriors of Light
Im glad I'm not the only one who always thinks of 'for those we have have lost' followed by 'for those we can yet save'. Idk if that's the actual quote but it always sounds perfectif you say both and incomplete otherwise.
@@SilverxWingx The combined "For those we have lost. For those we can yet save." starts as something Minfilia says, I think post Moenbryda, then is the title of a pair of quests in Heavensward, becomes closely tied to Haurchefant and Alphinaud starts saying it, and then eventually we get one or more opportunities to repeat it to others. It kind of just becomes the unacknowledged motto of the Scions.
I have watched this vid dialy last 2 weeks. It's so beautiful, it summarizes Endwalker and FFXIV in general so well. Thank you.
You ripped out my heart with "Take on Me", and now you've done it again. Your passion for this game is beautiful.
Ohhhh this hurt me so deeply. This game has altered my life for the better and I can't imagine being without it. I've seen your video "take on me" awhile ago, and I LOVED that one, and this one just brought me to tears...
God I love this game.
Seeing Haurchefant again and the moment he gave his life for ours nearly broke me all over again...
This video was the perfect summation of the story told in FFXIV. Well fucking done. I've watched it so many times. I've even shared it with people who not only don't play FFXIV but who aren't gamers at all, including my parents. Such a beautiful, important story.
I like to imagine that my story with FFXIV ended after Endwalker and thus haven’t touched the game since then. I loved this video and it brightened up my day.
I don't cry...
but I'm sobbing.
I know that's old hat for a lot of people on the internet, but this video, and by extension the story it's referencing, have fundamentally changed how I look at the world.
Seeing this reminded me of one thing in particular. We fought so hard but we still couldn't save everyone. The harsh reality of life
This journey is so rich, vibrant, sometimes it's bitter sweet, and other times it saddens me to my core.
For me, as of the moment. The journey is over now, I've let go of so many people I've enjoyed this path with.
But the story I've learned, it's buried so deep within me.
I will always remember how sweet this journey has been for me.
Make sure to have tissues handy. Really well put together. Oh my heart, the memories. Even the old ones. Just... wow. I want everyone who plays this game, who has a heart for these stories to see this. Well done.
I absolutely loved that you included moenbryda in here. to this day she remains one of my favorite characters
Just finished the MSQ and can finally allow myself to watch beautiful but very spoiler heavy videos like this one. And both cry and smile all over again!
Makes me wish I could forget it all to experience it all again watching this. This made me feel melancholic man.
This was phenomenal…capturing EW whole-heartedly while also remembering those we have lost song the way. Well done on the voice over and clip choices!! I’m going to go cry in a corner now ❤
You always make the most gorgeous GMV's!! This is so emotionally packed and I love it with EVERY piece of my being!!!! THIS IS GORGEOUS!!
That's fine. This is okay. I'm just...openly weeping in front of my computer at 4am. Jesus. This is...really, REALLY good. Thank you.
This is amazing its kinda nuts when I think back on the mid 2000s AMVs of old and then seeing this kinda feels like there final form
yeah editing has come a long way
Love this video so much come back and watch it when I need a good cry
I clicked and I didn't expect anything. And I bawled my eyes out. Thank you for this incredible piece.
That was absolutely compelling. The pacing, the choice of scenes, the transitions between them. Amazing work bolstering this fantastic story with a video like this.
This is one of those rare masterpieces, that every person who has done the journey deserves to watch.
Wow, I was _deeply_ unprepared for how emotional this was gonna be. You got me crying up in the club. XD Absolutely beautiful edit, well done!
This is a masterpiece of editing. The Music and the scenes together are epic. Thank you for such beauty
Just seeing this now. Oh my heart... over and over again.
Thank you for making this.
The most critical thing about Endwalker is that the villain is defeated with love and hope, and with it, she flies free and happy in the sky, its such an important aspect of the conflict.
Taking my girlfriend through the MSQ right now, we're both suckers for emotional fantasy stories.
I remember reaching the end of ultima thule with alphinaud and uriange with my chocobo summoned, that i had levelled up to max from the very start. just standing up at the top there, looking down on everything else, that amazing view.. i couldn't stop myself from tearing up and crying for a good few minutes.
I hope she can experience at least a fraction of what I did. We've just started Heavensward, wish us luck.
This is... the best best montage made, the editing is beyond perfection
The very story of FFXIV screams this song so with ease. Alisaie's own journey with the warrior of Light screams this song faithfully.
Oh God, this gave me major goosebumps 😭 Amazing video!💖
This definitely hit me harder than I thought it would. Well done.
What a masterpiece..........
The absolute despair in Lyse's voice when she's yelling at Thancred breaks me. Every. Damn. Time.
I've been full on ugly crying for 10 minutes now thank you for this
There was never a single answer.
Holy crap this was an amazing edit! That hug transition was very well done!
I want you to know that 2:44 made me start *sobbing*. I'm a wreck right now. This was beautiful.
"Has your journey been good? Has it been worthwhile?"
Yes. Yes, it was. Yes, it is. With all the pain, the tears, the fear, the sorrow... it was good from the beginning to the end.
I love this game... So much.
This was absolutely beautiful. The release of tears when the lyrics started omg
Honestly this is one of the most beautiful edits I've seen. It's incredibly well done. You're a fantastic editor. I keep rewatching - it's so stunning.
Who's cutting onions 😢 I honestly loved how this can still make me tear up no matter how many times I have watched it.
Good job keep it up.
Most FF14 GMV's I've seen have been pretty lacking but this one is perfect and exactly what I wanted to see, great work!
How does this not have a million more likes and views? These GMVs are beautiful
This always warms my heart when I watch it.
>starts the video
>proceeds to cry
Amazing
You put this together so beautifully that I'm tearing up.
It was brilliant. Thank you, Amalzia.
This person just summed up the entirety of FFXIV's story as a GMV so beautifully, bravo my friend
Destroyed in under a minute the second I saw Ardbert lamenting that he couldn’t help anyone and Arenvald talking to Alphinaud. Those two moments were so emotionally devastating to me
Amazing Job. Chills and feels throughout.
It's been several months since I first watched this video and it still brings me to tears today.
I don't have any words for this, except "Thank you".
I've watched this time and time again and never been able to make the whole way through without tearing up
This is one of the best Edits ive ever seen, I've watched it about 100 times now and just has so much Heart!
man, this hurts. Endwalker will forever hold a place in my heart, shadowbringers close to it.
Not a fluke. I teared up the two times I watched this video. Your choice of music and the transitions were amazing. Thank you for sharing this. Can't wait til Dawntrail! 🥺🥺🫣🥹
Months later and I'm just finding this and bawling like a baby with the rest of you. 😢
Phenomenal job here, friend.
When I watch this video, it brings back all the joy and fun I had experiencing the game with my friends. It had all of the moments that made us cry, laugh and discuss. Thank you for making it.
Since I found this Video, I watched it almost every day once. It invokes just the right amount of nostalgia, sadness, calmness and resolve. Very well done!
Man this is so good, the dialogue is making me cry again ☹️
And the editing is so good omg ;___;
DANGIT im in tears too many emotional damage combos thank u this rly good
this video gave me goosebumps. it's really inspiring. to get up even when the weight is too heavy.
You forget a lot of these story beats over the course of your time playing the game. It's nice to remember them.
i could watch this forever
I have watched this numerous times... And I still cry every single time.... This is so well done!
