"I may have gaslit gatekeeped girlbossed too close to the sun"
Gaslight. Gatekeep. Godhood. Girlboss.
Too close to the WoL it seems
@Emanuel Del Angel I mean he is Azem.
@@emanueldelangel7013 The Seat of Azem is represented by the symbol of the Sun, to be fair.
To be fair, the Sun would serve the same purpose as a bug zapper. Or Incinerator in this case. :3
Athena: Out here living my best life
Lahabrea: Eric is drowning
Athena: This ain't about him
Parents of the Decamillenium those two.
Lahabrea: "Eric, you suck. Go do whatever. I need to use Fire IV to discipline some of your coworkers."
Athena: "I love you Eric! ...my future meat suit who I made a cripple on purpose. Teeheehee."
Eric: "Wait, what was that last part, mom?"
Oh well, at least we gave his reincarnation the evil space rock that drove both his ancestral parents insane... that surely can't backfire. -_-
@@jaeusa160 To be fair, not every holder of an Auracite turned into a megalomaniacal madman/woman. We know at least 6 named people who were stored in Auracite that are inequivcabily good with a good dozen or more friends, and they got their Auracite right from the source too. The Original Ramza not only sealed his soul in Auracite, but had said auracite split into two so he could help defeat the High Seraph, his closest friends who sealed themselves along with Orbonne, Cidolfus Orlandeau, Agrais Oaks, and Mustadio Bunansa not only stayed sane and true to their good nature for hundreds of years, they could tap into the Auracite's powers to become Lucavi themselves to test the Warrior of Light's party. Then we meet the Original Alma, Delita Heiral, and Orran Durai. These people all kept their sanity, their memories, and stayed good people until their final rejoining the Lifestream after Ultima's demise.
Just like in the orignal Final Fantasy Tactics, Space Rocks aren't Evil. Their creator and some of their users were, but not all of them. Memory Lahabrea even says as much, Athena was already insane, the Auracite couldn't make that from Whole Cloth. Lahabrea fused his soul with Athena's, giving him HER insanity (which he Cut out, and then reaccepted later on). That fragment of her insanity then got amplified by the Heart and his body jumping. There's nothing that says Claudien can't use it for benevolent ends.
@@beatrixkaelin5120 Heart of Sabik is a black auracite, and is not of Etheirys. It's very distinctly different. We STILL have no idea what exactly it is because Lahabread doesn't even know.
@@violetnova7047 The Auracite involved in Return to Ivalice were all constructed by the High Seraph, that still means that The Original Ramza, Mustadio, Agrias, and Cidolfus were in Auracite made by the High Seraph. If the Heart of Sabik was made by the High Seraph, we know for sure by one of Lahabrea's lines that Athena did something to it that made it black.
And judging by the Gaol in the Orbonne Monastery (The Auracite wall that Ultima is stuck in), and by how the High Seraph *continues* to make Auracite even unto us meeting and killing it, I could venture a guess and say no 'Natural" Auracite are Native to Etheirys, except White Auracite, the Garlean Synthetic Auracite used in the Werlyt series, and Jobstones are native to Etheirys, on account that these were explicitly man made.
I wonder if its something like lyrium in Dragon Age@@beatrixkaelin5120
a friend of mine called this song "abusive mom breakcore" and now thats the only thing i can think of with this song.
Nah, more like abusive mom EDM
I loved Eric's response to her calling him useless after the fight "And who was it that made me that way?"
It's a nice little sting where it hurts, given Athena's colossal ego and literal god complex.
Athena: You piece of shit
Erich: Yeah, Whoever shitted me like that might had been a big asshole.
@Phoenix Elon Musk?
Nah, wait. Athena's actually smart.
@@justinlee790 I've been thinking about this line and I don't really understand one thing. Why do people think that was a comeback? It wouldn't hurt her, because she doesn't feel anything for her own son, he was just a tool. Also, she knows she made him to be this way, in fact by calling him useless she is punching down on him and blaming him for something that's out of his control.
@Phoenix You didn’t stipulate that it was a game character.
Besides I never miss a chance to take a snipe at Apartheid Clyde.
Can't believe they made Lahabrea go insane because he didn't get rid of his abusive ex wife's stuff after breaking up
Yeah, he was always a prick... but the gleefully sadistic madness came from the alien space rock apparently.
It's a good thing we left it with the reincarnation of the kid of 2 people who went crazy from the evil space rock. I feel as good about this as that time we tossed the Eyes of Nidhogg into the abyss. -_-
@@jaeusa160I mean if we didn't toss the eyes of Nidhogg in the abyss then no Shinryu. No Shinryu then no Zenos taking possession of Shinryu. Which means no epic dragon stage during Endsinger. Tossing the eyes meant we would have a great stage in the future. Which means we getting an Athena stage in 9.0
@@GhostWulf70792Nope, I think we're officially done with the Ancients.
@@GhostWulf70792ah yes, turning Athena into a living stage to fight on, of course 😅
@@jaeusa160 I HATE that the eyes were just yeeted like that! Like wtf! Giant fortress city nearby to protect them? I sleep. Hoping a random goat doesn't ascend to godhood down this hole after eating them? Real shit.
You cannot fix her
Not with that attitude
I'm going to actively make her worse
@@TheShiniestNidoran I´m pretty sure shes gonna make YOU worse.
@@TheShiniestNidoran I respect the hustle
I am sure if she steps on me enough, she will be fixed
I love having an absolutely irredeemable villain every now and then.
And this time it isn’t a stand-in for a real world political ideology!
i was concerned that they'd make athena anything short of a looming threat that destroys everything she touches. the only thing i love more than tragic morally gray villains are impossibly evil women that i have to work overtime to -ship with my characters- make myself sympathize with
I appreciated the note that while Auracite amplified her desires, this was always there inside her.
@@ashencometmom5291 Athena is definitely into some wack-ass mad scientist type crud.. Need some of that ngl..
@@ashencometmom5291 You, you Get It.
She’s literally what Hermes sees in Ascians that he hates so much he got depressed.
Ye she's the narcissisticest one
You can't excuse what Hermes did by pointing to one example of a bad person among a legion of good ones. I know it feels good to self identify with Hermes, but you have to realize he was a genocidal maniac as bit as narcisstic as Athena was.
@@Jay-bz5qki hate Hermes
and also a either a bloody idiot who thinks a child is a reliable scout or knew full well that there was no official meaning to life@@Jay-bz5qk
Ancients* Ascians refers to a specific group of Ancients.
Okay I'm not sad about Selene anymore. She can stay at the rave party whenever she wants. She's a free butterfly.
Ultima by the Ultima Weapon - “Fuck, we need the Mother Crystal to shield us! It’s too powerful!”
Ultima by Athena - “I can take this to the FACE.”
Meanwhile in UWU, it takes a full tank LB3 to survive a single Ultima
@@trustytrest UWU is as all Ultimates canonically a gross exaggeration made up by a professional liar.
@@zephyr8072 I love that you called him a professional liar rofl
It's interesting how most EXs, all Savage and Ultimates are literal exaggerations of what actually happened in the story by either a bard who wants the story to be more epic, some scientists who are curious about how bad it could have gotten, or some bored person who just to imagine the most batshit scenario.
I like to imagine the WoL doesn't like them for wishing for the scenarios in which you die the hardest lol
@@silvergrove8517 I always found that funny too.
It's also the polar opposite of narratives like WoW's, where they say only the hardest version of the raid is canon.
This way makes it far more inclusive to people who just want to do the story.
I bet Eric's phone number in Athena's phone is under the contact name: 'Spare parts.'
I love how both godhood seekers Hephaistos Phase 2 and Athena have trance themes to represent their mania.
Given the use of electronica genres, I’m gonna bet P12S Part 2 is gonna be an acid or glitch track. Or they could go balls out and do a bit of industrial.
@@yaboi2500
According to its orchestrion roll, P12S's theme is called "Ultima's Perfection (Endwalker)".
So yeah...we're getting a brand new take on Ultima the High Seraph's theme.
@@elinfini Ultima’s theme, but it’s in the style of “Horse Rotorvator”-era Coil
@@elinfini If the female singer start chanting BIG FAT TACOS in chorus, i will scream 😂
@@ArchieGamez Different Ultima (it’s the one from Orbonne Monastery), but I feel you 😄
Not gonna lie, wasn't expecting this raid series to be a stealth sequel to the Ivalice Alliance raids
And prequel!
And I DEFINITELY wasn't expecting Heart of Sabik lore after 10 years
I'm sure we'll see even more of that later on. Ultima and Espers (Lucavi) became sort of "Mist primals" when they were defetet by Occuria gods in FFXII lore. And i see many parralels between concepts of Dynamis and Mist from XII. I think the nature of Ultima and auracite is defenetly connected to Dynamis.
@@powerdj4590 I was hoping for Heart of Sabik lore the moment they announced the raid would be Lahabrea related during the lead up to Endwalker.
@@powerdj4590b
The end of FF14: You can (not) fix her.
I don't want to 🤤
hotter like this tbh
you can fix her ... to death lollllll
Oh i can alright. With an axe to the face and a hole 7 fulms deep.
Okay one of them you could fix and did
The other was a bit to insane to be fixed and needed to be put down for the sake of her son if no one else
I like how much it's implied by her form and dialogue that the god she was trying to become was Ultima, from whom the Heart of Sabik probably spawned from
It is said that the hearth of sabik is what athena created by observing the auracite - which is a product of ultima
@@lucasvallet4487We know that she tinkered with it for quite a while. The Heart of Sabik in its current form is the product of Athena.
But apparently she still only found the base crystal... the Heart of Sabik yields more mysteries yet.
If you in the orcrastion list in game, it tells you the name of the savage version's music: Ultima's Perfection (Endwalker). Can't wait to see what happens next week.
And her summoned minions looked like Ultima’s Demi-Virgo.
At this time it's only guessed that the auracite came from Ultima. There's a dialogue option for the WoL to ask Lahabrea about Ultima, to which he says that he knows nothing about such a being. Though he admits also that Athena kept a lot of the details of the auracite's origin to herself. Basically, we suspect it comes from Ultima and certainly this fight seems to hint at it I suppose, but it's never actually officially confirmed.
I actually would like to go back to the Ivalice raids and read up on Ultima's role in FF14 again, as I never quite fully understood her role in that raid's story.
"Never once were you truly alive" is now my favourite line from any FF14 track, both cause of the wording, the stiry implications, and the voice delivery.
Hey she ain’t wrong
Love how at the end of ARR, Ultima is something Hydaelynn almost kills herself trying to protect us from. And in modern content we're taking an ultima every other fight without breaking a sweat. Crystal mom would be so proud of us.
we have become so strong ❤
Would? What the fuck is this _WOULD!?_
WoL when about to be by Ultima during ARR: "Mother? Help!?"
WoL at this point: Is that supposed to tickle me? *headbutts Ultima*
Nice to see we keep up the tradition of the backing singers shouting PANDAEMONIUM
I swear every so often I catch them shouting 'Un-leash Ul-ti-ma!' instead
It's still really cool that Ultima is just a thing that you just shrug off in this fight.
This isn't an attack that shares the same name either like with some previous uses. It uses the exact same animation effects as the Ultima Weapon. They WANTED you to know this was the real deal.
unlike the weapons using diet ultima (optimized ultima) or certain other bosses like kefka and pandaemonium using ultima with different sfx and vfx, all of which using it as their basic raidwides, this used ultima weapon's ultima animation, which required all of hydaelyn's power redirected onto shielding you to survive, then the next usage would wipe you, even with a tank lb3
on top of being the exact same ultima, it was titled "theos's ultima", which is basically just "god's ultima", which implies it was even STRONGER than ultima weapon's "ultima"
very great to see just how far we've come from standard adventurer to god-slaying space-faring reincarnation of The Adventurer™
If the add phase is in Savage, I suspect it'll require a tank LB3 to live through.
@@jacobkern2060 Nope! It is a Mega Holy raidwide, but livable without Limit Break.
@@arieltimeshrine8137 although it also serves as the enrage for phase 1 so it still does fulfill the purpose of blasting the shit out of you
What really impresses me about this is how none of the three themes jammed into here clash or contradict each other. It just flows from one to the other effortlessly (dare I say hypnotically which might’ve been the intention considering Athena) and makes it all sound like one coherent piece.
I'd say it's because Hic Svnt Leones, Scream, and The Tireless One share a lot of the same motifs. If you look at the opening lines to each song ("Wild shrieks..." "Lost lamb..." and "Souls laid bare...") despite their lyrical differences sound rather similar to one another. Basically they seem to be the same song under 3 different contexts
This final version made me love the first tier’s themes
I can't help but hear athena say "My theory shall be proven as fucked" whenever she says the one line.
0:00 - 1:16 = One Amongst The Weary (Pandae 9-10)
1:18 - 1:50 = Scream (Pandae 5-7) + Prelude
1:51 - 2:33 = Ancient Shackles (Pandae 1-3)
2:34 - 4:03 = Reprise of the above
4:04 - 4:32 = Hic Svnt Leones (Pandae 4)
All through a Trance-Music like filter from White Stone Black (Pandae 8 Savage)
Makes you wonder what they're going to do for the remix that they're giving Ultima's Perfection for savage.
I also notice that the opening notes sound like the opening notes for “Ultima’s Transformation” which is fitting considering the lore dumps regarding the Heart of Sabik that dropped in this tier.
The very beginning of the song (0:00 - 0:20) also has the same background chords as White Stone Black.
It’s a mix of everything, I love it.
Curious on what Ancient Shackles influences you think there are, since the first half is just Hic Svnt Leones ("Pride, greed, in mud thrive these seeds..."). I can't really tell myself; the backing vocals are one (that "aaaaaaaaa" behind the actual lyrics, which isn't exactly like the Ancient Shackles version, but similar in concept.) Maybe the fact that the song goes into a lower pitch in general, I guess?
"And who was it that made me that way?"
Erichthonios.
Dude wasn't even part of the Convocation and he's already doing massive emotional damage that rivals even Emit himself.
What a chad..Lahabrea should be proud.
That' wasn't emotional damage so much as an Emotional Parry and Riposte
It broke my heart how this raid series ended.
Lahabrea: "Fire spells are my speciality, but even I couldn't cast a fire spell that could cause that savage of a burn."
@@jaeusa160 Lahabrea: *proud dad moment*
@@RainerFenixhart _Dark Souls Style._
My man Laha is winning and losing at the same time.
The fact that this is the month of Mother's day, a week after nonetheless.
Yeah, and with a Mother of the Year award on par with Ragyo Kiryuin
athena is basically ultima 2.0 even her minds are color swaps of the blood angel from final fantasy tactics!
the weird thing is she has multiple planets on her body, chest, halo, legs and maybe arms...
she really wanted to be a god.
crazy milf.
just you wait for part 2
Given there's a specific reference to Ultima and if Athena encountered her I feel this'll eventually lead back to her and Ivalice.
From the deepest pit of the seven hells to the pinnacle of the heavens, the world shall tremble!
Unleash, *ultima* !
the voiceover for that line is so sick^^
U N L E A S H U L T I M A
"trembaaahl"
athena's boss subtitle is theos, which straight up means god
As opposed to _some_ of the previous bosses being called "hemitheos" (demigod).
The cutscene timing they pulled off when the song picked up was godlike.
Soul, laid bare

Pandemonium
It sounds more like "Foul and Fair" in the second line.
clean my cries is "Claim my prize"
judging by the rest of the lyrics i feel like "Truth, Defined" might be "Truth, Divine" instead
I like how this version is the culmination of all other osts.
Everything was nothing more than the machinations and schemes of Athena to ascend.
@@williamroche5249 That, or "In Anabaseios I am the True Divine", which would nicely mirror The High Seraph thinking herself the one true god of Ivalice.
Damn, can't believe we got Umineko music for the final boss of Pandy
Athena: I will become a god!
WoL: Oh cool, Godslaying? I haven't done that since, like last week. Do you reckon you can stamp my card first?
Athena: a card? what are you talking about?
WoL: its just in about 10 minutes you're not gonna be able to, and im pretty sure if i get enough stamps on my Frequent Godslaying Card™ someone will give me a glowing horse or somthing.
Athena: ...
At a certain point you almost have to pity the villains for not understanding who exactly they're fighting.
Then your DF group wipes on the first pull...

I apologize to everyone I spoiled with the thumbnail/title earlier. I didn't treat side story spoilers as sensitively as I would MSQ story spoilers, and that was purely my mistake. I'll be more careful with side story spoilers going forward. (I will also have an no-spoiler title/thumbnail for the Savage theme for at least the first week of that video)
That's all i can ask for ^^
Thank you it’s appreciated ❤️

So the FF2 references were correct:
- Hephaistos in P8 is the Emperor of Hell that Firion fights in Pandaemonium
- Athena in P12 is the Emperor of Heaven that Minwu fights in Arubboth
I. FUCKING. LOVE. IT
No remix of the Pandaemonium theme when we've gotten constant remixes of FF4 tunes to an insufferable degree is a bit disappointing though.
Honestly I still feel that's bit of a stretch, me and friends best is, "Themis kinda looks like astaroths sprite?"
This was never really an FF 2 raid, it had zero real refrences to it. The lack of music a real kicker as Pandemonium from that game might still be one of the best final dungeon themes in the series. This just shifted back into being a Ivalice raid series at the end, which like, I get the Ascians are base of the Sions from Ivalice. I love me some Ivalice, but my friends ripped off on both sides here, when it's a FF2 theme it gets nothing, and when its Ivalice it's always War of the Lions or XII, never Advance or A2.
That's a stretch and a half tbh
Another 10/10 banger.
FFxiv sound team does it again! They cannot be stopped.
I appreciate how this song gives Athena zero redeeming qualities.
Asphodelos -> Castlevania
Abyssos -> Resident Evil
Anabaseios -> Bayonetta
Why is this so accurate lmao.
P10 is literally Bayonetta its not even funny
I’d say Abyssos is more Devil May Cry. All four bosses seem like something Dante and Nero would slay.
Agree with this list
@@ArchieGamez yeah that boss fits right into the Bayo universe

I felt my soul begin to ascend when Hic Svnt Leones began to play. MASTAHPEECE
Ultima in ARR: oh god oh god oh god. hydaelyn! give us your meatiest lb3!!!!
Ultima in post-EW: I have stared the HEAT DEATH OF THE UNIVERSE GIVEN PHYSICAL FORM in the FACE and WON. I can tank your measly spell with my FINGER.
Meanwhile Ultima in ff16: oh shit how did my pet project 1 shot me with a stick?
Asphedelous ended with a Gothic Horror boss, Abyssos with a body horror/mad science horror boss, and the Biblically Accurate Angels were terrifying to behold, I really hope P12S has her go full Eldritch Horror.
So Castlevania, Resident Evil/Biohazard, and Bayonetta?
I was thinking more Kirby than Bayonetta.
"Eldritch Horror" is fucking lame. Lovecraft didn't write about tentacles and eyeballs, he wrote about crushing despair in an uncaring universe. The real lovecraftian boss was Meteion.
@@GetterRayDamn right, finally someone actually understands what lovecraftian actually means
Tentaclewank should die
Hmmm...
6:09 I feel so seen by the melee running off and dying. I did that in my first run and I think just about every melee has.
Why
You can try to fix her.
But she'll break you first.
A bit strange that Lahabrea somehow recovered the Heart of Sabik from Praetorium but didn't use it later, he kinda just carried it until he is killed and we just left the heart at the Aetherochemical Research Facility for whatever reason. Also it seems like Athena escaped sundering this way, it didn't explained how other 3 ancients did that though.
Athena was dead before the sundering even happened. She etched her memories and will upon the Heart, and the other memory crystals.
@@jordanhendricks6995 Ah I thought she stuffed her entire soul in the auracite, just memories then
It is explained in the Short story that Emet-Selch escaped into the Rift with Elidibus and Lahabrea (Who happened to be nearby at the time). Thus evading Hydaelyn's Sundering Strike.
Hydaelyn purposely spared Emet-Selch, Elidibus, and Lahabrea by letting them exploit a way out.
Remember, everything she did was because that's what the Warrior of Light told her happened: she needed to keep the time loop closed, and so she had to be careful to make sure history played out exactly as the Warrior of Light explained it.
Hence, the three of them needed to escape the Sundering.
@@justinlee790 idr when this happened, when did we tell her everything that happened, are you referring to the events of Elpis b4 we kill hermes?
Normal: Newly born infantile goddess, her power not matured yet
Savage: Ascended divinity, the full wrath of a goddess
Hey guys I found Selene! I think she’s not taking getting removed well at all.
What I feel doesn't get enough credit is the whole stretch and fusion of Scream and Ancient Shackles, 1:18 to 2:34 or so. The changes already make each one sound amazing individually, but going from the newly frantic pace of Scream into the slow, lamenting-sounding wailing of Ancient Shackles is downright haunting. There's some weird-ass duality I get between the frantic parts being her insanity cracking through and the calmer points being the facade she puts out. But then I'm definitely reading too much into it, when it's just a damn fine mix.
Nah, it sounds like u read the right amount into it
I want her to change forms in savage after adds AND in phase 2, then the true aizen reference will be complete
Peaj
tbh she reminded me a bit of Ragyo Kiryuin in the face design with the butterfly wings and stuff.
Probably she'll open her eyes lol
Well, there is a datamined Savage-only model.

This fight, this raid, this theme.. its literally perfect, I adore it so much
Getting mili vibes from the verse. Great stuff

Can’t wait to see what crazy shit they do for the extreme version of this fight.

This patch was truly something special. Soken gave us a beautiful and epic FF4 medley AND a beautiful and epic Pandaemonium medley AND another remix of Flow. Such a legend
Not to mention another remix of Neath Dark Waters / Mortal Instants / To The Edge.
Truly, 6.4 was a divine gift.

Too bad they have him wasting time on FFXVI.
The start of this when the song picks up got me absolutely hyped

Say goodnight, with each bite does your sanity die
Sucking the life out, letting the dark inside
Say a prayer as the life leaves your eyes
Or scream all you like, your gods can't hear you
Say goodnight, to the weakness that you hide behind

Say goodnight, with each bite does your sanity die
Sucking the life out, letting the dark inside
Say a prayer as the light leaves your eyes
Or scream all you like, your gods can't hear you
Say goodnight, to weakness that you hide behind
Leaving the lies, leaving the fear inside
Never once were you truly alive
So scream all you like, your god can hear you
Dark horizons, boiling seas
From the borders chaos bleeds
Savage nobles, cultered thieves
Here be lions, follow me
Pride, greed, in mud thrive these seeds
Rotten and reeking, the fruits of your making
Testify, come take a bite
(Pandæmoniumm!)
Pride, greed, thirsting for war
Twisted and broken, and woes left unspoken
Journey's end, as I ascend
(Pandæmonium!)
Such a banger. And it has all those little details in it.
Not getting those wings for savage mount is a crime Yoshi-P
the first seconds are just pure bliss.
Eric: "I'm useless :c"
Athena: "Mwhehehe by design, so that you can't oppose me when you become my vessel. .U."
Eric: "I know how to end this. I'M USELESS! >:D"
Athena: "NO DON'T YOU'RE USELESS!! D8"
lol
....I can fix her
-Famous last words of all time.
Amazing work as always, Uvi
This track is a style I usually don't enjoy very much, but OMG does this work well.
Also, if you told me two weeks ago that a song which is calling back Hint Svnc Leones, Scream, Embers and White Stone Black would work, I would have called psychatric emergency. BUT IT DOES! IT FREAKING DOES!!!!!
To be fair to Athena despite all the funny bullying, the Ultima Weapon in Praetorium cast Ultima with a really charged up Heart of Sabik. Lahabrea's dialogue suggests it hadn't been used since the Allagan era or earlier. That auracite has been stocking up on aether for maybe a few thousand years?
Meanwhile Athena's got it after it's only recharged for a like year or two since ARR.
We were facing her right within the Aetherial Sea, she had _all_ the aether she could ever need.
@@elinfini The WoL is just built different nowadays.
@@trustytrest Indeed. In the Praetorium, Lahabrea BODIES the WoL until Hydaelyn intervenes, and even then the WoL is only able to separate Lahabrea from Thancred.
My, how we have grown.
@@Skijaramaz Aye. First big example for me is how we survive 2 Dalamuds in the Ruby Weapon trial.
Even if they were synthetic, it's still a giant planetary object crashing down on us.
I'm having having 'nam flashbacks to Airy from bravely default and I'm not too sure why (...besides the obvious)
Some say the whole story of pandaemonium raids are somewhat similar to evangelion and i kinda agree on that as Themis is exact homage to the anime.
I can see that now that you mention it.
I just felt they were going FF12 Cid route with Athena, which may also be the case. Design-wise, the eye choice was VERY intentional to evoke similarity with Venat to make the contrasting personality more jarring.
I hear that faint "Pan-dæ-mo-ni-um!" at 1:47, and I'm here for it.
Overall the music is fine, but 1:51 is pure gold
It hard not do dance while tanking to this fukken bop.
I love the energy of this song so much. Constantly switching between "I am a god" and "I fucking hate my son", a hater 'til the end.
Already downloaded this ost to listen to on vacation 😊 thank you!
The delivery of this song is o fantastic
How does Soken keep getting away with this! ❤
I don't think Soken made this. Could be wrong tho
This is probably arranged by Daiki Ishikawa, but it's all based on Soken's original theme for Pandaemonium.
FFXIV has such an amazing sound team.
Because soken along wit the rest of the sound team are gods!
Because He and the Rest are the true PRIMALS.
@@natebroadus8474 Nah, Ishikawa doesn't do this kind of music. His music tends to be bombastic and/or dark. This isn't officially confirmed yet but something like the Golbez boss theme should be him. Some confirmed ones from previous patches would be tracks like "Deep Blue" (Lapis Manalis dungeon), "Rhythm of the Realm" (Euphrosyne boss theme), "Battle with the Four Fiends (Buried Memory)" (Barbariccia), etc.
This should be Soken because it sounds experimental. Something like "White Stone Black" which is also experimental.
Bayonetta raid tier for real
Respect on you changing the thumbnail and apologizing. A lesser person would double down and or keep it like an a-hole. I may have done the content but spoiling it so blatantly would leave a bad taste/experience. Definitely worth a like and even subscribe.
No gods, no masters... mortals are stronger than you think.
that's some 80s europop right there
You see, Yoshida, you're not dealing with the average legendary composer anymore
Ragyo, Aesir and Singularity vibes
Aizen too
Ragyo fits the "horrible mother" theme
Singularity wishes he was half as cool as this fight
I finally made it to this part. I need the orchestra roll for this track.
Why does this music style remind me so hard to the Nier series?
Just been re queuing so i can vibe and go tryhard
the experience of this track when you have no knowledge of the game:
title: some implicitly dignified character(?) title
song: some sort of melodic pop rave that I _think_ is about the boss(?) saying they're gonna kill you even though they made you what you are because they no longer need you?
video: Butterfly boss battle that seems to revolve around positioning, since it seems it occasionally attacks half the battlefield, and also occasionally destroys panels.
the comments:
"I may have gaslit gatekeeped girlbossed too close to the sun"
"Athena: Out here living my best life
Lahabrea: Eric is drowning
Athena: This ain't about him"
"abusive mom breakcore"
Ok. My favorite song in ff14 keeps updating endlessly.
Literally all the motifs of pandemonium in one track. I love it, especially the main one (the one in the area's hub)
Me when I face her: "I had no pity for Yotsuyu. What in hells do you think I'm going to do to you?"
Surely I cannot be the only one who think this sounds like something from dot hack series.
The Cursed Wave/Eight Phases & Cubia's themes in FF14 styles is something I never knew I wanted so bad.
It's been half a year and yet there's STILL NO OFFICIAL SUBTITLES.
really vibing to the moth mommy rave
God tier music! The lyrics kinda creepy tho.
@Phoenix 2nd phase is gonna be sick for sure
When can I get the stepmania and ddr version seriously
Kill La Kill meets Bayonetta.
Sawano music in XIV when?
That ishgard Firmament theme is basically Sawano style
God I love this version! Ur best dude!
I love that we're all on the same page for her being completely irredeemable.
