Stormblood Launch Trailer

LOTS OF SPOILERS!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1Hd...ature=youtu.be

OMG OMG OMG OMG

He is back, our companion is back at 4:43 :)

dat spoilers

Omg the feels. I don't know what to say. This is going to making for a long week.

Well, a lot of scenes were already shown in the Revolutions trailer, except...

Y'shtola appears to be the next Archon to meet her end as it doesn't look like she survives that encounter with Zenos (who is clearly deranged and insane beyond all reasoning, like SE has stated previously in the past).

And I take back about my previous comments about Ferdola, she's basically lost all sense of honour and is now just fighting for fighting's sake. It's going to be a downer having to kill her, but it's clear she will have to be put down some time.

And I spied Magimaster (from FFVI) and Vysage/Lefty/Righty (from FFVIII) in there!

Either way, I cannot wait for this! :D

P.S. If that is the Ala Mhigan national anthem at the start, I love it. :D

They wouldn't show the actual death of a major character in a trailer... would they? :(

True, but then, there is also this trope, which, the last time SE used it, played it dead straight (pun is sadly intentional).

Haurchefant also bled from the mouth after he took that magic spear meant for us in the Vault... and... well, we all know how that turned out. :().

I really really hope I am wrong about this though, but... something tells me I'm not in this case.

i play ffxiv since ARR's beta and i don't even want to play the game anymore after this trailer

DId yall peep the Red Mage LB3 at around 4:10 ???

My heart skipped a beat for Y'Shtola. I sure hope that is not the end for her.
This trailer looks amazing!

I seen it. looks amazing cant wait for it :D

Now side note fem roe mch she was fire tho :p

Was that really the Ala Mhigan national anthem? I thought it was the Garleans anthem?

Just noticed Ixion is in this trailer, boss from dungeon or 3rd trial?

Community team, please give my feedback to the people responsible for this trailer. I don't know what I was expecting when I clicked to watch this trailer. Maybe a bit more music, a couple more scenery shots i hadn't seen yet. I did not expect it to expand on shots we've seen in other places to the point that it would spoil a major plot point. I'm really angry and disappointed that you would put this out there with total disregard to the fans who enjoy the story aspect of the game and ruin the mystery and surprise of such an important moment. I hope next time your marketing team can show more restraint.

The scene as we saw it in the Revolutions trailer was enough, there was no need to show us the next five seconds of the scene to seal that character's fate.

is it though? Is she dead?

The benchmark made me worried for Y'shtola. Now I'm freaking out. D:

Yoshida did say he wanted us to hate Zenos, if she dies, people will dislike him.

Only Thancred remains of the original Scions, this is if she realy dies.

the last time we saw someone bleeding from the mouth, they definitely firmly, cold in the ground died.

SE killed fan favourites before, personaly I was expecting Aymeric to die aswell. I guess the Scion cleansing continues.

Possibly death has been a trope for movies trailers since...forever, sometimes they die, and sometimes they don't. We've also had plenty of fake death in this game.

So I'm asking.

Did she die?

Hope she dies, to be honest. Im a game of thrones guy, nobody should be free if death.

Is it just me or the quality of the trailer isn't as crisp as the previous one? Also the color isn't as vibrant?

Yeah, she's totally dead. SE would never fake a death.

My real take away from this trailer:

'Join 6 millions adventurers'

LOL. Oh SE, ya big joker.

Again too many spoilers before launch. Why are you doing this:confused:

I expect all Scions to eventually die in the end anyways. The storyline has been heavily foreshadowing that all Scion's will die in the end and the WoL will one day be facing the True Enemy alone as a Adventurer.

However, as this story goes on they seem to be readying a set of new characters to replace the Scions once they are no more thus forming a group of new heroes that will be with the Warrior of Light thus earning their place as Warriors of Light as well.

It... It's possible it's just a fake out right? right? TT^TT

I mean, that'd be a pretty huge spoiler otherwise. On the other hand if it does happen... it would seem SE are determined to prune the old scions out of the story.

Did... did they just say king slayer?

Jamie cameo?????

I peeped that too. Wouldn't Cersei be an awesome character in this game??? I wish she voiced a character here rather than FFXV.

In almost all FF games, the main protaganist is the leader of the group. When they kill off the scions, I could see the WoL forming his/her own group.

He said: :'Kin Slayer'

Remember at the end of 2.5, how all the scions died. Lol, good times.

The most epic video game trailer

OF ALL TIME

Beats my previous record set by the MGS4 Theatrical trailer.

AMAZING

I mean, you may be right. They may just be removing her for the main story once again so other characters have the opportunity to shine. perhaps she'll just convalesce and rejoin us later on or be so injured she'll never be the same etc etc. still, she doesn't come out of that encounter whole which we now know for certain, whereas before with the splice we see in Revolutions trailer, it was just "they're in danger." this is spoiling a major development whether she dies or is critically injured.

i mean, if its not one of those two things, and she wakes up the next day with a bit of a tummy ache but otherwise healthy, then its just really bad plot development.

....or the point was to have you guessing and speculating, the way you are now. That's actually the point of a trailer in general lol. You see something that makes you think something will happen, but you don't know for sure, so it makes you want to watch the movie/play the game to find out.

Isn't that what's happening here?

Another example. There's a part in the trailer where we see the lower body of a man carrying a lance. It looks like he's wearing some bad ass dragoon gear, and is possibly a NPC.

First guess: Estinien.

But we didn't actually see his face, so we don't know for certain if it is Estinien or not..

SO... is that spoiling that Estinien is coming back? Did that trailer tell us for certain that he's back? Or is it doing what trailers are supposed to do and have us guessing that it could be him?

They pulled it with Alisae in 3.4 and she was fine. That said, they've been foreshadowing Y'shtola's death since we first met Matoya.

From how it is going it is most likely this as the story is going more back to the past FF games where the Main Character eventually meet his or her "Party members" as they progress in the storyline.

Estinien is basically the Kain Highwind of FF14 now if he is going to become a Permenant "Party member" that travels with the WoL through the rest of FF14 Main Storyline.

I was just saying if that is Estinien then he is basically like Kain Highwind by how he is handled in the storyline but sorry for the confusion.

On topic:

However, yes this is most likely Estinien as that is his Lance from after he was corrupted by Nidhogg

I like the trailer a lot. But...

C'mon, really? You will kill the iconic character of Final Fantasy XIV? She is FFXIV. Who think they got for Dissidia?Who you think is the highest rank FFXIV character in Brave Exvius? Also on Final Fantasy Theatrhythm she is the one representing FFXIV. It is the same as kill Santotto in FFXI. They are the icon of their respective games. Unless, of course, Y'shtola return as "Gandalf-like being", much more powerful than before.

Thank you for the spoiler warning, I won't be watching it ^^. Why you do this SE ;_; ?
