Ignis is a truly well-written character with psychological depth and a complex, atypical moral: notice how he declares that the world has no meaning for him without Noctis, which is such a bizarre thing to say for a Final Fantasy hero. In the base game, we learned to know him only as a mild-mannered, serious and reasonable man, but Episode Ignis adds a new dimension to his personality, in my opinion, showing us that his practical and rational attitude is not his one and only quality. When it comes to Noctis, Ignis becomes reckless, impulsive and desperate: nothing has more importance than his safety for him. I believe that the relationship between those two is the epitome of the real friendship: a profound bond between two akin souls that overcomes the psychological barriers of one's persona. There is so much beauty in this game, and characters like Ignis make it shine some more...
Iggy said: fuck fate fuck the gods and fuck Arden! I'll kill everyone in this room and then myself if it means keeping noctis safe
100% facts. For a character that seemed so straightforward in the game, it's was completely wild to play Episode Ignis. The depth of Ignis and Noctis's relationship is insane.
Very well said. 🎩👌 good day.
I think that Prompto and Gladio would have acted the same at Ignis place. The friendship between these 4 guys is simply incredible. Brotherhood
Honestly, when I finished the game originally, I felt it was the perfect ending.
In a totally fresh and unbiased opinion.
Now? I still believe that.
However, the only thing that would make it better is if Luna didn't die, then this ending + Luna - Prompto
And ardyn was forever raped by daemons or however it's spelled.
Because screw that guy in particular.
Noct: "Please, don't take Ignis' life!"
Past Kings: "Sure"
Nyx: "Are you fucking serious?!"
Mo Uddin pretty much ahahah
No. Noctis took his fate to save Ignis
Noctis712 Noctis is still alive at the end though.
Well, Noctics is the true king after all. He gets special treatment
Mo Uddin it's the crystal that saved ignis
He discovered a new recipe....
For a can of whoop ass
😂😂😂 damn
I have a ring for you. A wedding ring. It grants no special abilities other than making you marry me, for the fucking greatest comment I will never read anywhere else.
THIS.
Yes.
Now this is comedy
I love how awkward Noctis looks sitting on the throne! It's as if he thinking "you know, I never thought I'd get this far..."
I actually that makes the scene all the sweeter, deep down he's still our same slightly shy Noctis.
After thinking himself the sacrificial lamb, yeah I could see why he'd think that.
"What now my king?"
"I...I never planned for this to happen..."
He was like " Ignisssssss is the breakfast ready ?"
For those who think of plot holes:
1. Ravus managed to escape when Ignis and Ardyn went to the keep. Helping Noctis, Gladio, and Prompto to catch up to Ignis.
2. Ignis managed to kill Ardyn "Temporarily". Slowing down the starscourge, also giving Noctis more time to absorb the power of the crystal fully.
3. Noctis uses his regal authority on the crystal to spare Ignis. I believe, King Regis indirectly do the same (Like how Regis allows Nyx to use the ring).
4. As Noctis is in his full power, he managed to defeat ardyn without sacrificing himself. Also, Ardyn was underpowered as he didn't have enough time to "Absorb daemons and accumulating his powers".
Luna is still dead tho. At least it's a happier ending.
That was a really good explanation TBH.
Luna hasn't been developed as a character for me to care about her fate.
i actually think 4 for ignis gave his life to destroy ardyns spirit remember when give the choice it says a new contract was made so i think ignis just took nocts place in dying
Luna being dead is a happy ending for me! Iris X Noctis for the win, mostly because they actually interacted on-screen unlike Noct and Luna.
Plus, Luna gets to chill with Nyx in the afterlife
Gmansniper And since Noctis is a Lucian king, he has the authority to spare Ignis' life just as Regis allowed Nyx to use the full power of the ring. I think this ending ties in with the Comrades ending because the Comrades ending is also different from what was seen in the main game, yet Noctis still goes to fight Ardyn as seen in Episode Ignis Verse 2.
Ignis looks so much better with his hair down imo.
Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks so.
Invictus should be a costume
Both down and messy pulled back.
They should really let us use it in the game, just like the should old Noctis
i´ve been asking for that for almost a year
His usual hair makes him look too mature n stiff. Both slighty disheveled hair and hair down make him look more suited to his age. Loving his look without specs n having hair down.
Dude, the resolve Ignis has for protecting Noct is so much stronger than the other bros.
@Sub Saibot I'm pretty sure that Gladios would stick c4 with his body and bomb himself along with Aldyn to save Noctis if he has to lol
If the other Episodes got released, they would have done the same as Ignis.
Pretty sure the other 2 dudes would have done the same if they were at Ignis place. They'll not stay passive while Ardyn was dangling that knife over Noctis head. They probably would have lost their shit as well.
@@xhdhhdhdhd7136 They would obviously and thats a good point. But sadly only Gladio or Ravus could've potentially been able to use the ring. I dont think it would grant Prompto powers
@@butler3251 Nah thats something that falls more in line with Prompto who relies on weapons and machinery to fight.
Gladio would put the ring on instead, and would transform into a mass exterminating unit. Seriously soneone like him wielding the ring of the Lucii would give him a ridiculous strength boost and not to mention that Gladio could actually be even more competent using the ring as he is a broadswords master.
With the ring of the Lucíi Gladio could quite possibly summon the swords of the kings and handle them with no problem, quite possibly even at the same level as Noctis did despite not possesing the powers of the Lucian kings innately (he could possibly do even better than Ignis but also at the cost of his own life).
“This world means nothing to me. Do with it as you wish. But I refuse to let Noct sacrifice his life to save ours. I won’t let you take him away! Even if it costs my own life to save him... I will pay that price!”
Gods... This man is too pure for this filthy world 😭 No one deserve him...
And he said that he made an oath to protect Noctis at the cost of his life.
Yeah Ignis deserves to be happy with his friends and NOT in the filthy world 😢 Iggy’s best boy
12:44 Christ, Gladio's VA nailed that line. I got chills.
It's weird because he's usually the weakest one.
DeltaD36 that's because he doesn't get any chance to be anything but "gruff, manly dude" his voice actor is pretty talented and has good range. He plays Junkrat in Overwatch who sounds nothing like Gladio
Very good VA
Yes, it didn't sound like acting. It sounded authentic. Egads, forgive me - your comment is 3 years old.
Funny because gladio knows what happened to nyx and the ring and seeing it now broke him
I love the fact that even in this "everyone lives happily ever after" ending Luna still dies.
Ravus did lose his sister that much is true, but the empire that killed his mother is now gone. Losing loved ones does not invalidate any happy endings. Noctis and Ravus will move on from their deaths and become stronger as a result.
I guess, this ending is a bittersweet but it's more hopeful than the canon ending. In this one, Noct doesn't stay in the crystal for ten years and is there to help his people and find out a way to end Ardyn without sacrificing himself. Ravus goes from stop being borderline suicidal and misanthropic after his sister's death and finds a new lease on life.
Sure, Luna is still dead but I assume that he's happy that Ravus found peace and that Noct didn't have to kill himself (Well, I assume she'd be happy because she didn't have much screentime or character in the game. People just talked about how awesome she was and it really rubbed me the wrong way) and plus she gets to hang out with Nyx in the afterlife, someone who she actually interacted with on-screen and had actual chemistry with!
Mo Uddin hey, noctis healed Ignis from the rings curse, maybe he can save Luna from bleeding out
Luna episode incoming this year I hope Luna and noctis get another ending on her episode
Fizzy I assume you’re just heartless?
Darin de Paul's voice acting as Ardyn is as stunning as ever
Ignis goes Ultra instinct to save his king and brother from the jester King.
"brother" huh?
Dragon ball reference ^^
More like "Save his son"
ACTUALLY. Goku's Ultra Instinct Form from DBS seems to had bee copied off DIRECTLY FROM Noctis God Mode!
When Goku is in UI Form his hair overflows, has a Blue outline Aura & when he dodges it's like attacking a Gost/Mirage just like Noct's Phasing ability! This CANNOT be a Coincidence!
More like "save his lover"
For those wondering, I'm pretty sure Ignis says "Your Majesty" at the end when there's no sound.
For years I was wondering what he said
Thank you
Dang I want that as the main ending now
Ravus old wow
So many feels
gbdeck200 he looks so awsome with his beared
In theory you can say that the timeline split due to Ignis having sudden visions.
its only been 10 years, Ravus havent shaved like Noctis but with the White hair color he looked older/younger than Noctis dad (considering the wrinkles)
it may not be the main ending, but is it also one of the multiple ending, so it doesn't matter bro xD
We would have if the last 3 episodes didn't get scrapped for some reason
I dont care what anyone says, this is to me the CANON ending!
Kenneth Martinez truuuueee
The ending they most definitely deserve... therefore, it is canon! (Irregardless of what anyone else says.)
Kenneth Martinez same.
They’re all canon, the director basically treated each ending as weird alternate timelines so each one is canon for their timeline
Well, most of the recent games have multiple ending, and there is no such thing like non-canon ending, except if it's made by fan, so, you're right, it's canon.
thank god... finally he lives...
thats all i wanted this whole damn time
Imagine the battle went like
Ignis: *uses quick recipe*
Ardyn: What’re you doing?...
Ignis: I made mother and son rice bowl
Ardyn: ooooh
Ignis And ardyn: *finishes the bowl*
Ardyn: back to it?
Ignis: certainly
Ignis And ardyn: *gains buffs and continues fighting*
The Grim Slayer I laughed a lot harder than I should have at this 😂😂
Best. Comment. Ever.
The Battle of Accents
Vyx_XV lol it took me time to realize. I thought their clothes but meant their voice. Its the best
iTs tHe BeSt
Accent Contest
Ignis:" THAT'S IT I'VE COME UP WITH A NEW RECIPEH!"
Ardyn:"Fuck me"
Ignis is the ultimate bro.
The Handsome Devil Kaito's got competition.
The Handsome Devils Ignis is also Best Wife & Best Mom
Ardyn's theme has so many mixes.
Almost as many as Unlimited Blade Works
I swear I'll never get enough of Darin De Paul as Ardyn in this game. Love that close-up of his 'true' face as well.
Michael Gruver Jr Darin de Paul = Ardin de Paul! Guys hes invaded our world! Mind blown.
Farouk Oyofo And I for one welcome our Starscourged Overlord. May his reign be long and his snarky streak unending.
I know right? Darin was so frickin' perfect in this game. I can't imagine anyone else even coming close to this for Ardyn. I want an Episode Ardyn now!
LoveThatPhantom well we are supposed to get that with Season Pass 2. Can't wait! Would also love an Episode Ravus or Aranea.
Ooh I'm all in for an episode Ravus.
How to make people old just by adding a little beard.
ROFL yeah. And for Yeah I thought his hair (Ravus) should be different, lol.
They did in fact change his facial structure as well :) egads, your comment is 3 years old. Forgive me.
This is the only ending I accept
But it doesn't even make sense. The ending basically goes. "Hey you know all those things the gods said you would absolutely HAVE to do to save the world? Well you don't need to do anything anymore because....reasons.
Supposely EP Noctis will have an even Better Ending
@@DevilHunter1994 I think you'll find it does make sense. There was a kingsglaive member on the movie who used the ring, in the same way Ignis used it here, to destroy the empire's ultimate weapon. So it's not a plothole, it's perfectly coherent to the pre established lore. It just didn't happen in the main game because of different circumstances.
@@theazureknight9399 Ignis using the ring isn't the problem. He does that in the canonical version of events and it works there because it sticks to the lore. When the ring was used in Kingsglaive a price had to be paid for it because only the king is actually permitted to use the ring whenever he wants. Nyx gives up his life to use the full power of the ring. The same thing happens in canon where Ignis only loses his sight because he only used a portion of the ring's power. In this alternate ending though a price is never paid. Ignis uses the full power of the ring against Ardyn here, which, according to Kingsglaive, means he should have to die, but than he doesn't just because Noctis asked the crystal to not kill him. Furthermore it was said in the game that Ardyn and the darkness could only be defeated if the Chosen King of Light sacrificed his life to eliminate the Starscourge and restore the light. In this alternate ending, none of that happens. Ignis fights Ardyn with the power of the ring, wins and receives a get out of death free card because Noctis asked the crystal really nicely. Then Noctis gains the full power of the crystal, defeats Ardyn for good this time and somehow saves the world without sacrificing himself because reasons....This ending completely ignores the rules established in the game and film proper simply for the sake of creating a happy ending.
@@DevilHunter1994 It seems that you did not quite grasped this ending on it's entirety. The price was about to paid, Ignis was about to die, he just didn't because Noctis used his authority as king and ordered, not asked, the crystal to save him.
And regarding Ardryn, Ignis didn't destroy him by overwhelming his power with brute strength or something like that, that would be impossible. What did happen was that Ardryn had lost his immortality, thereby finally allowing for him to be finished off. Without Ardryn, there are no demons, nor darknesss, nor any other obstacle for Noctis to attain the full power of the crystal and restore the light. It's all there, they just didn't flat out said it to the player's face because it would be boring to have a 15 min exposition cutscene of Noctis explaining it all right after the climax of the story.
And again, there was a reason to why this wasn't included in the main game. The circumstances here were *different*, thus allowing for a wild card to appear and the story to go on an unpredictable direction, something that would not be possible in the ""main story"". You can't analyze this ending alone without comprehending episode ignis in it's entirety, and it's so complicated that some parts of it are canon, and others are an alternete continuity. That's why i'm not surprised to see that so many people got the wrong idea about it.
The beautiful thing about ffxv is you play through this amazing game all the way to the end just to sit on basically a throne of the ashes of those you love.
Almost everyone has suffered greatly, all just to die.
And then, to reward those who not only beat the game, but stuck with it after 4 dlc's, your final ending is one of happiness. Iggy does not lose his sight, prompto assumably never had his solo dlc and following identity crisis. Everyone lives. For all intents and purposes noct and his friends finally get the ending they deserve
20:14 "Your Majesty."
Why they kept this part Silent?
I know during a ffxv stream the fans asked if Adam would actually say "Your Majesty" as Ignis for us, all that's left is for someone to time it in and there it is hhhhhh
pretty sure he says "He-ka" which is yes, your majesty or my king.
Your Majesty, I've come up with a new recipeh!
Also, the music during the battle was godlike.
I wish we had these choices for the main game. God it would have been so awesome.
Yes. All of this Season Pass bullshit should have been in the game. Worst Final Fantasy ever.
North Star Ken wasn’t the tone of the game suppose to be darker?
The game isn't dark enough nor light enough to care for any of the characters except...well, nobody really. The game doesn't build anything memorable on Ignis or Gladio. So, he lost his eyesight. Why am I supposed to care? Not even the pussy ass King gives a shit so why should the player? It is terrible writing and desperately needed a year or two in further development.
North Star Ken lol true
They can't put all this shit into the damn main game.
"This world means nothing to me..." Does that mean that if Noctis dies, Ignis would have nothing to care about? To live for?
Meledy Diaz Yep. He lives for Noct’
Ignis is noctis waifu, of course!! Yaoi yaoi yaoi
Promptis is best shipping. Ignis should remain as the good butler he is, clapping Noct while he's receiving the hot Prompto's Argentum.
I mean noctis is basically ignis’s younger brother. He practically raised him, so I can understand how he would say the world means nothing to him if it wasn’t for noctis.
Dilana Karatas While that may be true, the fandom hates Luna for her love for Noctis because she gets NO character development outside of being "the main protagonist's love interest". Her entire character is built around that love. And thus, she basically has no personality traits or aspirations outside of things that involve Noctis.
Ignis, however, has a very fleshed out personality, and he GROWS as a character when his feelings and love for Noctis are explored. Platonic or otherwise interpreted, you can tell that Ignis loves Noctis with every part of his heart and soul.
And I personally think Ignis' love is actually stronger than Luna's, because Ignis couldn't stand to live in a world without Noctis and he fought his hardest to PREVENT Noctis from sacrificing himself, while Luna guided Noctis to his fate because it was her duty to do so. She basically ALLOWED him to die, while Ignis saved his life. That's why people are pissed at Luna, because she, more or less, indirectly killed Noctis by leading him to his sacrifice.
Tl;dr There's an actual explanation for this outside of "zomg yaoi is so hottttt uwu"
For those of you who are wondering why Noctis survived in the alternate timeline ending it's because Ignis used the power of the kings too defeat Ardyn and removed his immortality Thus Noctis didn't need too kill himself in order too fully destroy Ardyn in the after life. Once Ardyn came back Noctis killed him off and brought the light back too lucis and reclaimed his kingdom. Ignis would have died but Noctis used his authority and power as the king too command the crystal too spare him. EDIT: If theres flaws in my theory please let me know.
Jovon Pulido emm nope. Ignis didnt defeat ardyn. He only can be defeated by noctis. But the fact that he didnt die just maybe the wishful of ignis dream lol.
Jovon Pulido And why can ignis do that? Take away the immortality? That makes noctis pretty much useless if anyone with conviction can sacrifice themselves to save the world. Just give the ring to cor and be done with it lol.
Jakob Sylvester That IS how the ring works lol in the movie a kingsglaive named Nyx Ulric used the ring too kill the imperials ultimate weapon and he died right after the ring finished giving him it's power. Same thing that was gonna happen too Ignis before Noctis came along and saved him. So basically anyone with a strong enough will can use it i guess but Cor avoids it because he knows it's basically suicide in exchange for temporary power.
Jamie McElwain The storyline itself said Ardyn was the cause of the darkness and was stated that only the power of the king could kill someone immortal I.E why Noctis had the past kings kill him so he could enter the afterlife and finish Ardyn off. But since Ignis used the power too defeat Ardyn he removed his immortality so all Noctis had to do was finish him off in the final battle too remove the darkness since the man who caused it wasen't immortal anymore. But then again thats just a theory on why Noctis survived. THAT or there was a whole other solution too get rid of the darkness without Noctis dying that we never got too learn about since in the main timeline Ardyn manipulated the crew throughout the whole game and kept them from finding an alternative method since all he wanted was too get rid of his bloodline and the crystal in the first place. So why not guide Noctis into his own death? Ardyn is a major strategist.
Jovon Pulido Why would ignis be able to take away his immortality? Why would there be a different solution if it is preordained by thr crystal that ardyn can ONLY be killed by noctis? This is just horrible writing. They simply changed the goalpost out of nowhere without any explanation. And no the story does not make it clear that ardyn is the darkness. In the trailers it was shown multiple times that the starscourge is actually a phenomenon on the moon which brings monsters to eos. The main game was veery ambigious about what the starscourge actually was. We dont even know what ardyns goal is anyway. It seems to me rather that he WANTS to be killed by noctis i.e. for him to become the chosen king. So why would he hide ways from him to fulfil this goal? This ending just makes no fucking sense and is copout by the writers because fans kept whining about wanting a good ending.
THE FUCKING SCYTHE
...it looks majestic af!
But wait does this mean that's his original weapon and the armiger are somewhat like illusion? Because he's not a king(?) but he can make copies...?
So it WAS Ardyn's brother (" a jealous King, one not yet chosen by the Crystal..") who banished him from Lucis in beginning.
Tomás Molina no basicly Arydn did the same thing Luna did in the main game but the starscourge entered him instead of disapating so he became unworthy of the throne and the crystal so he was disowned by both and the crystal picked his brother to take his place basically he was a hero who got screwed over by the people he was trying to save
Demi-Fiend of Time Exactly. That's what he meant in his story when Noctis was being sucked into the Crystal for a ten year slumber.
Demi-Fiend of Time and then got revenge a couple millenium later in the main ending as:
A) He pissed off the Gods that he felt betrayed him by teaming up with Ifrit and starting the Starscourge
B)Ended his brothers bloodline by having Noctis sacrifice himself.
C)Ended his own immortality.
While I usually like endings where everyone is happy and alive, the Alt-ending does undermines Ardyn character and goal just a bit as well as one of the major themes of this game: Sacrifice.
Deadpoolrockz6 Eh the human half still gets what he wants as that's the reason he helps Noctis as much as he harms him there are basically two Arydns one is the human the hero king who saved the world from the starscourge and the other is his demonic half the reason he can't die who is fuelled by the hatred of the betrayal done to him basically one part of him just wants to die already the other wants the world to burn for what they did to him
Demi-Fiend of Time well if thats the case then A and B "Evil Ardyn" goal and C was "Good Ardyn" goal. He got what he wanted and both roads.
Think we just found our Ardyn Dissidia template lol
i play the game and now!!! The game is ending! i love this game 🚲👾🎴🀄🃏🎮👾🎸🎷🎮😎😟😲😥👍👍💝🎅💝😲😴🍰🎽😲
They should add swimming to ffxv, not being able to feels weird in a open world game. 😦😦
Past kings: you're gonna die
Ignis: so?
Past kings: aight lets see what you got!
Ardyn: what?!!!
The original ending to ffxv broke my heart. This ending mended it.
So this is an alternate ending where Ignis planned out a different outcome since he knew Noct would die, Ignis weakens Ardyn, Noct gains confidence instead of being a little bitch, Noct isn't tricked into the crystal by Ardyn so his plan kinda fails, Ignis prepares ahead of time by talking to their allys, they prepare while Noct comes back and they all kick Ardyn's ass since he was weakened already bro style instead of relying on the ring. Ignis you damn genius!
Yea Ignis is my new favorite character in the series. Its almost like Yu Yu Hakusho with these four guys. Noct is the developing main Yusuke, Prompto is the goof ball Kuwabara, Gladio is battle crazy Hiei, and Ignis is the genius Kurama.
LOOKS LIKE ARDYN JUST GOT COOKED!
alright, I'll leave.
I'VE COME UP WITH A NEW RECIPE!
Ghost26968 LMAO 😂😂
I can give you a taste test
I donno about you guys. But this is THE ABSOLUTE best dlc story of the 3 . It fixes so many things and gives so much more!! So much feels!!! I was sad playing it to the end. Then I was extremely happy to see the epic 5 team up together at the alternate end! WAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOO. WE WALK TALK TOGETHER!
Does every final fantasy gotta have beef between family members
Junchrissna Kim nothing like this in 6.
this is basically final fantasy:paul brothers
Ignis confirmed BEST FFXV BOY.
As far as I'm concerned, this is the true ending for me. God this was just so good, Ignis became my new top favorite character after this DLC.
2:05 Unlimited Blade Wor- oops, wrong franchise.
this game has quite Fate references..i have observed.....there's a DLC spear named Gae Bolg.....In episode Gladious there's Gilgamesh ...and let's be honest that Armringer does looks Gate of Babylon :P
Barry Allen Gilgamesh has been here since ffv and gae bolg just as long not really fate references just final fantasy common enemies and weapons
Ghost Blade88 guess it can be vice versa
Barry Allen but, those things were based off folklore and myths. So it's not really a Fate reference, at this point it's pretty much open source and anybody can reference folklore and mythology
david chong cheng kau wow.. didn't knew they were mythological.. Thanks for the info
Ignis the unappreciated character
Anthony R. Who thinks he’s unappreciated???
Pretty sure he's like everyone's favorite actually
Before this episode he was nothing ...
Now he is the one who created a nice ending
mepphy99 so you’re saying he’s a less interesting character than gladio
mepphy99 I found him cool before this episode, he was the strategist of the group, he also held the group together even when he was blind, and he was able to keep it together and able to fight even though he's still blind
two things:
1) Ignis is just so damn godly gorgeous with a messy down hairdo
2) wow, he went full devil jin right there.
Did Ignis just went full Nyx Ulric?
Yes, yes he did
Ignis went full Ignis man....
And he lived too.
Ignis went Ultra Instinct lol
Cent Philip Jumawan Ignis went Way Beyond Nix Ulric. He entered a state of Power similar to Noctis' Ultimate Form *Powers of Light*
That flipping music for this fight just brings tears to my eyes
This is honestly the best ending I've seen since finishing FFXV which caused me to fall into tears 😢 the moment Noct dies, therefore sacrificing his life. Bravo to this ending which I prefer more than the original ending to FFXV 👏😭
I disagree. Sure the original ending was sad, but it was incredibly moving to see Noctis grow from a self centered prince and become a true King, ready to sacrifice all for his people. Now this ending completely shoots that character development to hell for the sake of a happier ending. (though whether this is even happier is honestly debatable since Luna is still as dead as ever) I'm usually not a fan of bittersweet ends, but it really worked for the story of XV. This honestly feels horribly out of place to me.
DevilHunter1994 you have a strong point ;), seeing Noct as he moves on from being a reckless prince to a badass king and basically saves the world is an experience that player will forever cherish, and your right there no character development here since Noct matures just by seeing Ignis half dead, and it's really messed up that Luna still dies and Noct ends up alone when becoming king in this this ending while in the original he makes a great sacrifice and reunites with Luna which is something I'm very sure most of us were glad to see in the end of FFXV, so yeah I respect your opinion since this happyish ending was most likely made for those who didn't like the true ending
*THE **_TRUE_** ENDING*
It's really not. This ending doesn't even make very much sense. It's a happy ending for the sake of a happy ending.
DevilHunter1994 can’t I just be happy? since going on the boat, everything went in a downward hill spiral. so let me enjoy this little bit of could have been, okay? shhhhhhh 😢
@@DevilHunter1994 No, original ending doesn't make sence. After doing all the gods dirty job Noctis died. What's the point? Hero must live, celebrate and get the girl, the car and the kingdom. Noctis lost everything, from his home, his father, his beloved, his friends suffered, and at the end he just died. That doesn't make any sense. It's a true ending for the sake of fans who played so many hours and spent a lot of money just to see their most loved character dies for nothing.
@@arieswildchild The point is that Noctis' sacrifice saved the world and everyone on it. Noctis began the game as a pretty self centered person. He really just cared about himself, his friends, his family and Luna. Sure he wasn't mean to other people, but he didn't really care about the larger problems facing the world. His character arc throughout the whole game is about him learning to stop focusing on himself and his own pain so that he can see the bigger picture and realize that everyone in the world is suffering too. His character arc is about finally learning to act like a king and make the ultimate sacrifice for the good of his people and the world. A tragic ending was the perfect way to end his character arc. Also, Noctis didn't lose everything. He got to spend eternity with the woman he loves in the Afterlife. He ends the game perfectly happy with where he is and what he has done.
What Ignis said at the end was:
“I’ve come up with a new recipe.”
This is the ending I wanted to see back in 2016, so this is the ending my head accepts as canon
I think Ardyn has a moveset for Dissidia now
We need to vote so that Ardyn & Caius appear on Dissidia NT
Sadly, Caius couldn't make it.
This ending.. Is so beautiful..
This makes me appreciate Ignis so much, making me think that he is truly the king's shield in my opinion.
*gets the Crownsguard Casual for in game use *
"Let ur hair down sometime!"
I WOULD IF I COULD BUT THIS DAMN GLITCH WON'T LET ME HAVE THE HOT HAIR
Bianca Aletti they patched it. Now you can
Ignis' fight with Ardyn was more fulfilling than the final boss fight Noct had. That cheesy air battle was poorly executed.
OK I just try to forget the other endings. This should be the real ending!! I dont want tragic shit. Real life is tragic enough.
Mitchell B. Then you must Hate Criss Core and Type-0
Demi-Fiend of Time lol actually I love crisis core. Havent played Type 0 yet. The end of crisis core hurts a lot but I love it nonetheless but noctis fate really destroyed my mood during christmas time last year 😂 glad that this doesnt happen this year.
Demi-Fiend of Time Crises core may have a sad ending but you gotta admit the way Zack Fair fought a whole army by himself for almost two whole days non stop in a single battle is a pretty badass way to go lol
Ur damn right about that! Everyone's been through a lot of crap!!!!
Mitchell B. Type-0... The supposed brother in (previous) Fabula Nova Crystalis... Pretty much everyone dies (except some ppl).
Ignis, the "I've thought of a new recipeh" british serious mannered man to best bro out there and now my favorite character
Ignis' Episode seems to make the biggest impact to the story.
And it makes for the best ending overall, No Bullshite "Was it Worth it?" Ending like we got, we got to see the Sun rise on the kingdom without having the world destroyed.
YES! YES!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!
How can you be so excited over literally nothing lol
Thank you Chris for video and Merry Christmas
Iggy got dem seeings back
Ardyn: I've never been called Your Majesty before. Would you do me the honor?
Ignis: My allegiance lies with the True King alone!
Ardyn: Right, looks like we're doing this now.
WOW. That remastered version of the "Final Fantasy Theme" on the steps of Insomnia did a number on me.
So does this fit into that Alternate Reality/Timeline near the end of that Timeline Placement Square showed long ago?
Digiking101 yes.
Somnus: You are not royal blood.
Ignis: I may not be of royal blood, but if a Glaive can harness its power, then so can I!
Kings of Lucis, lend me your strength!
Somnus: Such insolence! You dare to command your kings?! Now burnnn….
The Wise: Wait! We are not taking his life. The Holy Stone has revealed him the future.
The Oracle: And the gods seem to be… observing this young man.
Somnus: Hmph! Fine, I will listen.
Ignis: How could you let Noct bear this burden alone?! If you don’t do something, he will die as a sacrifice!
The Oracle: The Chosen shall obtain the True King’s power and banished the Accursed. It is already ordained.
The Fierce: With his sacrifice, the dawn will return to the world, and humans will be saved.
Ignis: No! I refuse to let Noct sacrifice his life to save ours!
The Just: Sadly, we cannot oppose the Gods’ will.
Ignis: If you are going to just stay here and watch, so be it… But I will never give up! I will change his destiny with my own hands!
The Clever: You mean, you are trying to disobey the gods?
Ignis: If I have to. Since I won’t let anyone take him away, not even the gods!
The Clever: He is out of his mind…
Somnus: And we can’t kill him, so what should we do??
The Rogue: This is all Regis’ fault…
Regis: I have no slightest idea, things would turn like this.
The Kings: Hmmm… (thinking for solution)
Ignis: …
As a True King, Noct will absorb the Light unto the Ring. And then, he will sacrificed himself in order to release that power.
I beg you, let me help him bear this burden. I will pay the blood price so that Noct doesn’t have to sacrifice himself.
The Just: How noble. But your power alone won’t do much damage to the darkness.
Ignis: Then lend me all your power!
The Rogue: Our strength will be too much for you to bear. You will die. And without you, the Chosen might fail to save this world.
Ignis: Without Noct, this world means nothing to me!!
Somnus: I do not understand. You are not even related by blood. Yet, you risk everything to save his life.
Ignis: Noct is my king… my brother… No, he’s my everything!
Somnus: I see that you truly care for him. How I wish I did the same…
The Fierce: I say we give this boy a chance.
The Wise: With the Gods and Holy Stone by his side, he might actually change the Prophecy.
The Clever: I still feel it’s too risky, but I will accept everyone’s final decision.
Somnus: So it is decided. Chosen’s Royal Aide, Ignis Scientia, we will support and bestow you all of our Power. But remember, we will not be accountable for what follows.
Ignis: I will bear the consequences!
Somnus: Your resolution is crystal clear! Without further delay, we will proceed to the contract.
“If thou dost wish to obtain a power to change the fate of the King, offer thy own life.”
Ignis: "I will fight with all my life!"
“Thou, who fight for the King with thy life, shalt be rewarded with Power of the Ring.”
since i enjoyed reading this thread i thought i share it
chaos noctis dlc coming soon. alternate timeline just as this one. they are making different time paths by choices. the way they originally planned it to be
Exodus Achiha Only that its all disjointed as hell and does not make sense in the slightest. I never thought their pathetic attempts at fixing the game would actually FUCK up the narrative even more.
Source?
8:28 Noctis voices on the background.
13:45 No matter how flawed FFXV is, Noctis is a badass
After procrastinating for a long time because I knew what would happen in the original ending I finally finished the game today... but I came here to watch this ending because I wanted to feel better
Why couldn't this be the true ending
Corey Lucas If you believe in multiverse Theroy it is Canon hell that's what Crono Trigger and on a much larger Scale Shin Megami Tensei does aka All endings are equally Canon in their own separate timeline it's how I like to treat this anyway
Because it kills the story. All of the consequences are completely gone,which is bad in a story. In the end there weren’t any sacrifices. Noctis does not die ( so how could he kill Ardyn ? ),the story builds up around this. And Ignis doesn’t seem to go blind too,even tho he took a blade on his eyes. And how does he live after the fact that he sacrificed is live in the contract ?
And why does Ravus still lives ? was he not killed several minutes ago ?
And I could go on.
But it sure is a greaaat alternative ending,I loved it.
Also what Ardyn just said may lead to what his dlc will be about.
Shut up! Just mad cause you got sauced by My Mom!
I interpret it this way: The scene at the end when you see Umbra? He turns back time - that‘s why the game shows the guys pushing the car again - and he just keeps doing that, over and over and over, till everything turns out right and we finish in the timeline where Noct and Luna marry. No one died, all good :)
AkiraRavens That's been a Theroy for months now that King Regis used his magic to create a time loop to save his son and Luna's life
Ignis fight looks like Vergil :)
Bülent Chan especially when he using a high jump, the sound effect just like judgement cut vergil had!
Ignis Main weapon was originally going to be a Katana rather than Daggers & a Lance
Pause at 2:04 you’ll notice that one of the swords he is using is a sword you can use that is effective against daemons.
(The gold one with a fancy design)
I am so mad. This is actually a better ending as the fucking original ending! I am so mad!! But I love Ignis een more now. He is just the best character ever.
Fans must've complained about the original Ending & Noct's death & so we got this as a Result.
Honestly I don't blame them
Damn I wish this was in the base game, it’s emotional man
Past Kings : You know you will die, yes?
Ignis : I know...
Past Kings : Best you go out with a huge bang then, how does it sound?
Ardyn in the background : Why do I hear boss music?
I LOVE this ending. I wonder if they have any plans on an ending where we can save Luna too.
This is way better:
No blind Ignis
Everyone is "alive" at the end
everyone is "alive" at the end
I am going to consider this canon because why would square add s much detail to Ardyn's background if they weren't trying to change to the ending. If you remember I am sure square enix was rushed to make this game
No, it isn't.
The whole game established the prophecy of the true king and the prophecy also being the condition for Ardyn himself to get final peace.
With the line of lucis alive, ardyn does not get his salvation/peace.
It's not only about ridding the world of darkness, it's also about granting peace to the immortal man led to be the avatar of darkness by the preordained designs that neither the kings nor the man chose....
Without a proper death, Ardyn cannot be reunited with aera either. The Canon ending shows us noctis and Luna in the afterlife, but presumably, Ardyn and aera are together again too....
Ignis looks better with his hair down
The only game has me tears T T
I know this might sound strange...but I kind of like the King's weapons flickering across the screen constantly. To most its probably really annoying while you're focusing on fighting Ardyn, but when you watch it it really gives off that feeling of being something like a power overload and sort of adds to the mood of things.
Oh wow, I never knew you could get a different ending! This to me is much better
wow, ardyn actually uses Etro's Scythe here for once.
So I guess... fu*k comrades now
Polski Fazums no noct still sleeps in the crystal for 10 years
I like how when he's with the group Ignis is just the cooking guy, but alone he does all this hardcore badass shit and can 1v1 Ravus and Ardyn lol
Dude this was really cool seeing igins do that lol amazing just played this myself
Did anyone think of the possibility that maybe Promto or Gladiolus or Ravus died so Noct and Ignis lived in the alternate ending? It seems fishy that not all 4 of them are there in the end.
Can we get a costume now of iggy with his hair down please
That1guyfromco you do after playing his episode. However, his hair part is glitch rn, it's not down. It's ridiculous maybe next updates
I always took that scene with the blotting out is that instead of sacrificing his eyes, he sacrifices his memories of Noctis.
Thanks to this DLC Ignis became my second favorite character in FFXV.
My first one is Noctis obviously.
I didn't really have a favorite personally until Episode Ignis. He feels much more fluid in his movements and attacks unlike Noctis and the rest and now that you're able to change your controlled character in battle in XV, I'll be playing as Ignis once I unlock the node to do so. He was much more fun to control in a two hour span than Noctis was over the course of the entire game. I didn't really like Gladio's control scheme all that much and Prompto, although unique, didn't feel right to me for some reason. Ignis was just perfect though
Ignis is such a good bro
Wait is this what could of happened I'm so fucking confused my brain hurts
Nero Knight when you play the first time when ardyn trap you, you only can fight back, when you play a second time, you can choose play along and you can have an alternate ending
Nero Knight It’s an alternate path where Ignis sacrifices himself to wield the Ring of Lucii against Ardyn. By killing him here, he delayed the Starscourge and gave Noctis more time to prepare, which allowed Noctis to defeat Ardyn without dying.
Gladiolus sounded like he was crying after he spoke
And in the alternate ending, all that 10 years was preparation and none of the chocobros dies
Is it just me, or is Ardyn making some of the same grunts that Noctis makes during combat?
so I was right ardyn did have a brother and Izunia could be that brother who was the jealous King the way ardyn says as much here
Firstone33 they had already confirmed it shortly after we all found out to be honest
Monte Logan I knew it all along but I didn't know SE confirmed it until now.
Well they are both Izunia, even Noctis. The english dub is a bit confusing in that part. If you look at the other dubs including the japanese you will notice it. Seems like Lucis Caelum is actually just a title. Izunia is the last name.
Shandykey yeah I did think that once but in this ardyn pretty much confirms that Caelum is his family name cause it says that bahamut named a Caelum the first King aka ardyn's brother aka the jealous King. to be honest they should have made ardyn's character better here cause in this they make him basically a soulless ass who never wanted salvation at all
This is that dreamlike ending where everything goes right except Luna is missing. It's more surreal than the main game.
I like both.
Somehow I think what's been said before the final battle with Ardyn is the answer why Noct doesnt die.
iggy: for 10 years everything we've done was in preparation for this day
noct: and today we finish it. today we walk tall together
I think the three bros did something while they wait for Noct to wake up, and the fact that Noct's not walking alone to kill Ardyn brings out the change.
This is the true ending!
LALALALALALA! What? I can't hear you. LALALALALALALALA!
Loved it.
But this gotta be an alternate ending right?
shane blue sky seems to be...and I thought the original was emotionally scarring!
Yes it's an alternate timeline and ending.
Lrein best end too though Luna still is dead but can't make everyone happy can you square...
Firstone33 Eh it depends on the person I know that some would say the tragic ending is better and this undermines alot of consequences in the main game but different people have different preferences -_-
Demi-Fiend of Time indeed I like both endings but like you say different opinions what Square should have done is fuse both endings cause I wish Luna survived but that's just me hopefully there will be a Luna dlc and ending where she lives and married noctis like in main ffxv ending
A much better ending than what we got the first time.
i just really wanna know what the piece of music at 13:00 is called ngl, i can't find it anywhere haha
