Eiji, you *******, why are you still on Rabanastre? D: -misses you-

good video, mostly from the end of the world video, they just added a continuation

All my feels!

is good to see that some of the important npc's from 1.0 have survived. I have a feeling that Yoshi p will be doing more vids showing more npc's that lived.

Anyway I guess ill be dual boxing in the beta since im a legacy member. we still have to apply if we wanted to play the console version. I guess that's fair

As a "opening movie" I don't think this play its role very well, but that's just my opinnion (and as we know everyone is a critic)

I don't respond to you to disagree with you. You certainly have the rights to your critique. I, myself, wondered for a moment why the video moved here and there. But I considered that they called this a prologue, which often sets up the events in the bulk of a (let's say) "novel", but doesn't necessarily have to be a clear image of said events to be had in the novel. It's a rather sneaky way for an author to bring together some of the highlights of the story to catch reader's interest early without having to work for it later (Oh dear, I'm not selling this very well, am I?). I also considered the title sequence of Japanese animes and the rest of the video (after the End of the Era portion) reminds me of the way said title sequences are put together (I'm displaying ethnocentrism here, I fear).

What are your thoughts on what I have said? I sincerely hope I didn't make a weak analogy...I loathe having to read through one of those...I doth apologize if you had to suffer one at my hand! :o

EDIT: Would someone be so kind as to provide various screenshots of the suspected Survival Mark? I keep missing it in the video. I'm so sorry.

They look like something too look through. Maybe some kind of Aether flow measuring device to find aether instabilities?
