FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn Opening Movie Now Live! (01/07/2013)

That wasn't a nod to the meme...... The meme CAME FROM this movie... >.> Jeez, I really hope you're trolling.

Ah, not trolling. Only watched the Aug '12 video once when it was released, so just remembered from back then. Didn't register that this is the same video with the extended scenes in a different order to form a continuous narrative.

Damn me for expecting something new^^

[nokinator]

That was good, and yes it just makes the anticipation that much more, and NO there not gonna tell you everything about every question you have about what happened in one video.

man the days just seem to get longer as we get closer

[Zenaku]

This is the only thing I read related to it tbh, and it doesn't say it's a tattoo... Only some kind of mark.



I might be wrong though, where did you read that it's a tattoo?

i remember reading it somewhere that yoshi-p said it it's going to be a mark what else would it be? you think it be easy to add a mark to every cloth in the game to make sure every Legacy can see it somewhere that pick on there cloth? I remember people asking for logo to be put on cloth for there free company and yoshi-p said they think about it that be a lot of data to store so they be only do it for a few item like shields.

What else could it be beside a simple tattoo they may have it on there cloth because they don't change gear and they have circle of knowing tattoo already on them. People really need to stop looking into it so much it simple fact that reason they have it on there cloth is due to there other tattoo they just can't put it somewhere else on there body so people can see it there cloth make the most sense and that only for the NPC that got saved. Us players could pick it on our skin anywhere that make the most sense and seeing how i know i read that somewhere i'm sure it be just that a tattoo on your body that you can pick.

Do you know how hard it would be to put the logo on every cloth in eorzea and make sure it fit and you can see it? I don't think the tattoo would be on your cloths i think it going to be on your skin that more easy to do them make sure every gear from ARR too day that ffxiv look good with the logo. If it going to be on the cloth it would be the starting gear and that it you wont see it on every gear in the game that just make no sense.

I think there just on them because they don't change cloth and they have a tattoo showing from circle of knowing. Not saying your wrong just very unlikely to be on every cloth in the game.

This makes a lot of sense ^^ but it could still be this mark that's on our skin, no? They already have a mark to prove they are of the circle of knowing, so this mark signifies something else. Them being survivors (like us)? or Echo/ Path of the twelve like Enkidoh mentioned above?

No, the video clearly showed his Bravura lying on the ground next to him with it's blade sharp end down towards the end of the End of an Era part - you can still see it lying there with it's handle sticking up after Lou teleports him into the Rift just as Megaflare swamps the area.

So yeah, he kind of violated the fundamentals of the Armoury System with that one.

I find it kinda hilarious in one way. Perhaps Midlander found his Bravura underneath his inn room bed just like many of us during the finale 11 days, hence all of us losing the relics that were granted to us by the twelve simply because we dropped the damn thing right before we were cast into the future.

I hope that they do release some clothes with those marks then...

If you played alpha and you saw the tattoo options you can tell that it have a wide range of area you can put the tattoo i hoping they also allow us to put it on our neck or arm i don't really like a tattoo on our face but i'm sure that just what they going to do which make sense.

Maybe the mark they have on there cloth is the tattoo what get to pick which look nice enough on your neck not sure on your face but i'm sure people would pick that and if you get sick of it you can always turn it off on and on when you like.

I think the marked on there cloths is being a survivor but then again it seem like they did not get a time skip like we did they seem like they live there life and only us hero's got the time skip. The mark could still be the survivor mark and we just end up getting it. I mean it's a tattoo right? so i'm guessing they just end up giving us our mark by someone in the game but we just don't get to see it or maybe we do there just not enough information on it.

That best i know it going to be a mark on our body that make more sense then SE working to make sure the mark can be view by every color cloth/armor in the game that would take a lot of time and money and also a lot of memory to store it on there HDDs

I hope that they do release some clothes with those marks then...

I hope so too that be pretty cool or maybe the mark is just there free company? i mean it may not even be the same mark we get for being saved we also have to think about that also.

OH sweet cheezus I nearly fainted seeing Than @.@;;;; *plays part over and over again* Soooooo hot ><

[Twiddle]

Enough said....



I do have some questions, but those can wait till I hit the story... and here's hoping it's explained... just hope it's not like rift you start year 2000 after everything is to ashes, and get sent back in time to prevent it from happening...

[AlexNiculaie]

This cant be all of the opening, it doesnt clear anything up at all.
I think i remember Yoshi saying that legacy players would get an unedited version, is this what he was talking about?
Abit disappointed, Bahamut/Louis not explained and Odin shows up out of nowhere. SE pulling a Lost or something.

The opening video isn't going to explain anything, really. It's been stated that we will find that out through in game storylines, especially those dealing with the Crystal Tower and Bahamut's Labyrinth.
