    Clive Rosfield was born as the firstborn son of archduke Elwin Rosfield and his wife, Anabella. As the eldest son of Rosarian bloodline, he was expected to inherit the power of the Phoenix, the eikon of fire. However, for reasons unknown, he was rejected. As a result, Anabella considered him a failure and treated him with contempt.

    For your flame still burns inside me deep within my heart
    Showing me, a new tomorrow, never too far

    And though our night is over you shall always remain, forever, my treasure, my star

      ​@@mbovb006 Not really. That could be taken as symbolic of Clive, but also just straight as a reference to Metia itself, or magic for that matter. Moongazing, the official theme of the game plays in the Japanese version. It strongly implies the opposite of what you're suggesting, that Clive likely survived and the sunrise was symbolic of his return.
      Translated from Japanese:
      In the moonlight the willow sways
      On this roadside I am but a stone
      Visions of you come to me
      Like counting sheep
      If there is any meaning to our parting ways
      Then you need not be sad
      From the silence to a distant sky
      Fill your heart with an unwavering love
      No matter what night
      No matter the cost
      Haven't we been living this life together
      As if in the blink of an eye
      I was yearning for something Gazing at the moon
      I was so afraid of the storm, when you appeared before me
      And I'm so glad that it was you
      It's as if nothing before this moment ever mattered

  • @Dopafiend88
    @Dopafiend88 Před rokem +117

    All signs line up and point to Clive surviving and returning to Jill. He took on Joshua's name and wrote "Final Fantasy"
    1. It's not the first time Clive took on another person's name.
    2. Harpocrates gives Clive a quill, asking him to put down the sword and take up the pen once he defeats Ultima. -"The only Fantasy here is yours. And we shall be it's Final witness!" Nobody except Clive and Ultima were there to witness that line. The name of the book is "Final Fantasy."
    3. Clive is the narrator of the story. He narrates the beginning and the ending of the game. "And thus did our Journey end." The Platinum trophy is called "The Chronicler" with the subtext "And thus did our Journey end."
    4. Clive is right handed. His left hand turned to stone.
    5. Metia doesn't fade because Clive "dies". It fades because Clive destroyed all magic in the world. This also explains why Jill can't sense him anymore and assumes he's dead.
    6. There's a scene where Jill explains how when the dawn breaks, she knows he'll return to her.
    7. Part of Clive's character arc is learning how to save himself. This is directly called out multiple times by other characters, including Jill.
    8. The End Credits song "Moongazing" spells out Clive returning to Jill.
    Clive Alive.

      But for a more grounded context about the Metia star, Metia is indeed a Valisthean folklore and acts as a wishing star in the story. That's why Jill is always praying to it.
      It only faded at the end beside the moon, meaning it can no longer send wishes to the moon. That's why Jill cried. Now tie it up to both the songs for more context.

      Nah mate, that's pretty cut and dry. Clive returns to her. You also can't look at these points of evidence individually on their own. All evidence, hints, and symbolism about Clive surviving line up and support each other. The book makes the strongest case there is.
      Clive narrates the beginning and end of the game -> Clive gets the quill to chronicle his journey -> Titles the book the words he used to deliver the death blow to Ultima -> Uses Cid the Outlaw Symbol on the book -> Platinum Trophy is The Chronicler and uses the narrator's (Clive's) closing words as it's subtext -> Circle back to point 1.
      Symbolism is always always always important in an FF. I've been having these conversations for as long as I can remember. People had it with FFVII, FFT and FFX when some players would argue the heroes were dead, only to later be confirmed and canonized to be alive. FFXVI is no different. Clive receiving the quill, and Jill talking about the dawn, are scenes that happen before the Final Battle, for a reason. It is very intentional by the writer.

    My first raw experience with an ff game. I started with 7 back in 2015-16, and I was there for 15's launch, but I was spoiled early on and was a couple weeks late. I made sure I picked this up day one and steered clear of any social media for the whole week, focusing only on work and this game. Actually not knowing what to expect, speculating what was going to happen as my siblings watched a good chunk of my playthrough, was a really cool experience. I love all of the ff games I've played (6,7, 10 mainly) but I knew what to expect cause they were all 20+ year old games. I was not expecting to go from cheering hype as Clive namedrops the franchise (genuinely had to pause and take a lap around the room) , to crying within 20 minutes as the credits rolled. Its the only series that can do that for me, and I'm glad I was able to experience 16 the same way people got to experience the classics. This is gonna stick with me for a long time

It’s sadder the more you think about it, it’s too beautiful and yet so sad, never once could joy truly find him but that if the greater good he taught he could bring… Joshua.. Dion… Cid… Theodore… so many amazing people… Clive… just the sight of his hand turning giving away at the curse break me… but him accepting it destroyed me completely.. Jill… Gab.. Otto.. Torgal.. everyone knew they weren’t coming… it’s just too sad, so the world lost magic yet gained freedom, a freedom earned by a history that now is but a fairy tale.. Final Fantasy.

  • @Harrowing999
    @Harrowing999 Před rokem +171

    This’ll be a lengthy read. But with Yoshi-P saying this ending is up to interpretation I’ll give my thoughts on it.
    Dion is dead. He flew into Origin knowing it was a one way trip for him. Weighed down by the guilt of destroying his empire, killing his father, he wanted to repay all those lives he wronged by the only way he felt was right: death. But not before he took the evil that plagued his homeland with him. He earned that warrior’s death.
    Joshua survives. Yes, even he states that the Phoenix cannot bring people back from the dead. But when paired with Ultima’s power of creation, Clive could very well posses the power to bring at least one back from death. And he would gladly bring Joshua back.
    Clive is alive. He shouldn’t be, after using Ultima’s power that his body could not handle to destroy Origin and heal Joshua. Which is why his left hand was beginning to petrify. Jill’s heartfelt wish to Metia was heard and granted. The star fading out not signifying Clive’s life force, but rather performing a miracle and ensuring Clive survives. He may be down an arm, but he lives. Jill then sees that dawn is rising and she stops crying because she knows that dawn always comes, and Clive will always find a way back to her.

The terms of his life and his death are his own and I think it is purposefully vague to show that lives are owned by the individual. It is not about whether he lived or died but rather that he got to act within his will. How it ends does not matter in this case for the journey of free will was the goal.

So this is the end of the journey".
      I wish a dlc with some backstory, like Cid's life, What happens after Clive or similar.
      I loved that this adventure had a little bit of everything, it starts with the responsibility of being the shield of the Phoenix, then goes through revenge, forgiveness...God, and that's not counting the side quests with sequence, the lostwing sequence is one of those that make you empathize with the characters.

    The most important side quests are "Priceless" along with "A Tail to Tell"
    Both played will explain the meaning of the dawn seen end game and the book, written by cid rosfield.
    "A Tail to Tell"
    "when the day comes, I'l certainly have a lot to write about" is what clive replied to Haprocrates after his encouragement to pick up a pen.
    Harpocrates is all-knowing as the game claims, but opting choosing to delve into the intimacy side of pheonix and ifrit(older brother), chances it's more likely Clive.
    There's a point in the game where Joshua clearly stated that his eikon's power could never bring someone back to life.
    Clive who loves his brother more than cid, should probably have higher chances that he would honor his brother's legacy.
    "Priceless"
    In Priceless, Japanese language; On that special day when they were young, Jill recalled witnessing the flowers reaching out for the sun after the storm; similarly, Clive reached out to her and calmed her down from the "storm" the storm being that she was being ignored as a person when she overheard her marriage potential. She gains the conviction that Clive will always be there for her, no matter what (a belief that is confirmed several times in the game, with Clive first coming back to her after many years apart and then saving her in the ship). She said that's a quality she appreciates and likes about him before she confessed to him and declared him as her treasure.
    Therefore, end-game seeing the sun rising calmed her down and stopped her from crying any further.
    But, endings are arbitrary nowadays, it's a gamer's pick. cheers!

    That phrase that Gav said to the newborn baby mad me tear up 😢
    Gav is probably the next leader of the Hideway. He and Otto will probably continue Cid's and Clive's dream.
    Because as both of them mentioned. Destroying the crystal and defeating Ultima is definitely the begining of the new world that they are dreamed of.

    Muito obrigado Square por ter feito esse jogo maravilhoso, não é perfeito, mas todos sentem que foi feito com muita emoção e carinho. Esse final quebrou o coração de todos os jogadores que realmente entenderam a história do FF 16. Foi uma fantasia e mesmo assim me fez chorar.

      What made us sad is, he left Jill alone once more... He's done it before and he do it again... Even though in FFXV they made a true ending which Noctis and Lunafreya happily married in the ending... Let's hope they do the same here 😢

      @@MundusFate hard to say honestly. We saw Clive attempt to heal Joshua but we don’t really know what happened afterwards. I mean Joshua said the phoenix can’t bring the dead back to life but I feel like they wouldn’t make Clive do that for no reason. As for Dion, he’s most likely screwed unfortunately

    In the tarot arcana the number 16 is the tower(of babel), the fall of an old world order and the diaspora of the civilization.
    The 17th arcana is the star(of the Magi going to Jerusalem) symbol of hope and a new radiant future, enlightenment, body and mind converting to one point (toward the light).
    I guess it is no coincidence this song called like so. The next chapter of Final Fantasy will likely be directed to this new path. What do you think?
    If you are confused on where is the Tower of Babel in the game it is not just one “tower” the crystals are the tower(s) of Babel.
