Before Final Fantasy XIV: A (boring) Project.

Hello, since I'm a big fan of the Final Fantasy (FF) series, I decided to start a project called "Before The XIV" where I marathon the previous Final Fantasy games to show how things you meet in FF14 might have looked.

I try as much as I can to get the footages and screenshots during my own playthroughs, but I still give credits where it's due (which is the case for FF11, and the savage contents in FF14, thanks Mikoto XI, Momo Sama and Drak).

Here's what I call the "HD remaster" introduction video for additional infos, or just an appetizer.(2:43)

The first part of the "HD remaster" features explanations, from the original Final Fantasy to the 3rd.(6:28)

The second part of the mechanics explanations, this time covering Final Fantasy 4 up to the FF7 compilation (minus Before Crisis).(7:51)

The 3rd part, going from FF8 to 10-2.(8:46)

The 4th part, going from FF11 to 12-2.(9:05)

The 5th and last part, going from the FF13 compilation to 15 !(15:00)


The 1st videos were made with my old mic and my almost complete lack of knowledge on how to edit videos correctly, please don't be "fooled" and dismiss all the others because of this, at least try the Sigmascape ones.

Older introduction video(4:27), maybe if you want to compare the progress in quality?

Older version of the "features explanations"(14 minutes)

The short Warrior video (SB update)(9:48)

The long Warrior video (SB update)(19:49)

I won't beg for mercy, it's the internet after all, I know my accent is not on point because I'm french, and my editing isn't godlike because I'm french... Well, blame everything on me being french.
You can still point out when you feel like I made a mistake or forgot something, although I have to warn you that some things were omitted because I'm planning to cover them in other topics.

Here are the other videos since last time.
