    Honestly, I think from a ARR stand point that we as the player character are "The 6th Warrior of Light" With Derplander and his four comrades being out predecessors that vanished and the player character being a newly selected warrior of light with their own path and story.

    Derplander and Friends are specifically representatives of Legacy Players which, for the most part, have their existence completely ignored due to collective amnesia. I think the story was written with the non-legacy model of "These guys have never seen 1.0" and ergo that conversation with Ifrit didn't happen WITH THE ARR PC.

    There's also the fact that Ifrit has fought and tempered a lot of people since the legacy players met him. (Since I never made it past level 16 he never met me in 1.0 any way)

    Which is strange considering that some scenes are changed for Legacy characters.

    After the initial scene when our characters wake up from our 5 year stasis that Louisoix put us in, it's more just dialog changes rather then full scenes being changed. One I can recall is when you meet Minfillia again she comments about not forgetting who you are and how you have echo... but then proceeds to explain what Echo is like we were an ARR player

    Are there any other scenes or is it just this? I haven't touched my legacy character since the relaunch, but there's a number of dialogue changes that might just tempt me...

    There are a few, depending on your progress in 1.0's 7UE scenario. References to you slaying Nael van Darnus in Second Coil, Cid saying something "oh didn't I tell you? this is the second time <player name> has saved Eorzea!" after Praetorium, etc

    Off the top of my head the scenes that have differences are the opening (legacy players appearing where Derplander and party did in the movie and then walking into town as opposed to coming via carriage/boat), when you first meet Minfilia, taking Cid's airship to fight Garuda (Cid comes to remember taking you to fight Nael), and after the praetorium (the amnesia is lifted for everyone).
