Yeah, I mean he does beat the main character multiple times despite never having an intent to kill him since he wants Clive alive. Legit if Ultima wasn't in the picture our boy would've been dead.
It has to be noted that it's a bit of an original take for a FF to make Odin so powerful. It's generally a rather mid-tier summon, while as opposed to that Bahamut is always amongst the most powerful summons (" the king of GFs/Eidolons/etc..."), which explains why he was again very powerful in this game.
I love the guy, but he has the most severe case of Blizzard Brainrot. Why would you ever open up a game you hate over a game you were praising nonstop?
I Hope he Returns to this. his playthroughs are legit too good and entertaining. I do admit the diablo 4 and blizzard drama content is attractive but damn, i was kinda happy to see him playing something he seems like he had fun with. instead of locking himself with a gate that it hate it players. Wish you the best Asmongold o7
It’s not getting the views and he isn’t having fun or if he was he wouldnt choose to quit it near the end. FF fans seem so needy for Asmon to like their games, it’s a lil bit weird. As long as you like it that’s all you need!
this playthrough is a fuckin spectacle, it has it all. Awesome music, great combat, sexy male and female characters to be swoon by and beautifully written story arcs for each NPC. The dev team knows their stuff. thanks for uploading these.
Man these two are even more intimate than Yuna and Tidus and those two were peak romance in Final Fantasy for me. FF after 10 was kinda lacking in the romantic subplot for the main characters so this is a nice surprise.
@@manikatti5546 makes sense why they weren’t together earlier though, Clive basically had ptsd, and so did Jill. For their relationship to progress further, they had to atone. Clive fighting himself, and Jill when you go after the iron bloods. Then right after that they both try to kiss until gav had to ruin it (obviously for good reason but still).
It's true! I just wish the characters themselves (Clive and Jill) were a bit less...boring? What I mean by that, is that I wish their characters were more than their trauma. Clive *sorta* is, but that's like all they got with Jill lol. It's like watching 2 (quite furnished) wooden planks try to glue themselves together over the course of the game 😂 I might be in the minority with this, but it's hard to be invested in a romance when all it boils down to is: "we are both sad and alone, and we've known each other since we were kids." At least that's my opinion, I know most will definitely disagree.
@@Crispifordthe3rd515 i can kinda sorta agree with jil but thats also because she didn't really have much of a past to gorw from ya know? with clive tho i disagree. for me his character was(in the beginning) coming to terms with joshuas death(who wasn't dead) and then continuing cids legacy. i really dk how to put it into words but clive feels like hes grown from the beginning of the game,as for jil idk. it seems to me her story is more so being there for clive and there friendship growing. overall i think there good as characters...clive as a protag would be a 8 or 9 while jil is a 8. they could improve but there def not bad also ive heard many good things abt 10 so it looks like i will be playing that next.
Recently hit platinum on PS5 with this game. The overriding theme in the game is love, like it or not…and each version of love is handled brilliantly. The love between brothers/family, the love for country, the love between significant others and the love between friends. My spoiler free reason for Jill passing Tifa as my favorite FF waifu is how she was written. Jill had a horrible life other than having Clive in her life. She was a ward of the Rosfields, then she was basically a slave made to murder thousands of people. The voice actor nailed adult Jill. Even in her happy moments, you can hear the melancholy tones in her voice. She is proper and subdued….not booba and skimpy outfits. I loved the game. 9.5 outta 10 for me.
@@Yvanne i did. A few of those side quests should have been in the main story quest line imo. Jills, Torgals snd Joshuas at least. They (in my mind) help clear up the ambiguity of the ending
@@masterpain7742 new zelda is trash. New Diablo is trash. New souls games souls clones are trash. Every piece of gaming media released until now is trash. The only breath of fresh air is this masterpiece ff16. So cope and seeth cry more toggaf(reverse)
This game does dragon bosses right. From the white dragon that knocks down the bell tower in an epic entrance, to mother fkin Bahamut, to Svarog's ass-kickery every time is great
Yoshi-P knows how to make a good dragon. 14 is chock full of awesome dragon fights, and that carries over here to 16. If Asmon ever gets back to Stormblood, he'll have a big one on his plate by the end of that expac.
Dude just doesnt have the attention span to finish an entire FF game. Lol If he had done half a lick of research then he'd see he was literally right at the ending. Probably could have finished it in one stream.
It's not that deep. The game after the bahamut fight falls of a cliff. Same reason max and a lot of other popular streamers are having trouble finishing the game.
@@darkdrift5169stop coping buddy the Odin was a good fight too and the Ultamalius fight is kino epic as well. Don't try to take the audience for the whole ride and then bail off at the literally ending of the game. Other Streamers can go to hell since they do it for views but asmon at least showed genuine interest and invested time in it . But he's literally at the end of the game so its frustrating to see him just bail off. He needs to complete it for final episode.
Badass swordsman in full plate armor with a bastard sword spitting Nordic challenges "I am Sleipnirr and you shall yield! ...Or not, it does not matter" Brainlet Chatter: "Weeb dialogue, I don't like it"
As long as it has the 'Final Fantasy' name attached to it, people will always call it weeb shit lol. If this game was called anything else/by a Western dev there'd be zero
FFX's would have been up there if not for the fact that everyone in Spira can just wade around in water with all their clothes on like it didn't exist.
Asmongold spends so much time talking about how bad modern gaming is but then doesn’t even bother to finish games that are really good and keeps playing bad games
Well at least he got to see clive get some 😢. It seems like alot of people who where playing the game went to play something different not cause it was bad but I'm betting different stuff came up that was newer.
@@MrBiosh0ck man that sucks im literally thinking its not worth waiting for him to finish it anymore and might as well go watch other people finish the damn game
@@MrBiosh0ck The wait is painful, I rarely follow people's playthrough but when I do this happens lol, maybe he's taking his time which we cannot do anything. I do hope that he finishes what he started though.
I was wondering if it was. I also notice some Valkyrie Profile and Parasite Eve vibes at some scenes too in this game. Yoshi-p really loved what the company once was/did.
A lot of the end game reminded me of the plot of Xenogears. Including humanity's original purpose for existing being the resurrection of some alien God, and the plague of turning most of the population into mindless monsters.
Asmongold, dont tell me you're going to stop playing right before the Barnabas/Odin boss fight, which in my personal opinion, is the best boss fight in the game.
More please, Zack! Harder fights aren't far away either. Really fun watching your playthrough of this just a shame you play some really crud games lately.
2 weeks without playing, I guess that's it folks, at least he went farther that in FFXIV Edited: 1 month already without playing, I guess I was right, can't wait for him to return to the game, make a bunch of people resubscribe to his channel and then just stop again after 2 quests. 😂
I find it funny he thinks this will be GOTY when he struggles so hard to get himself to keep playing. A GOTY game would have you hooked playing everyday till you finish it...
@@free29ctthat is 100% me when a game that I've been waiting for comes out, if I'm enjoying it anyways. So far, this game and resident evil 4 remake is my favorite games of the year so far probably Spider-Man 2 as well. I didn't care for the first one but I know venom is in the second one.
This literally chopped out all the attempts on the dragon & Zack's meltdowns...that's lame. And now all the vods on Twitch are gone to watch the proper stream. Wtf is up with that?
@@rogthepirate4593 soundtrack was epic for that fight was well, it just became more and more intense the crazier odin became. I can't say enough good things about ff16's soundtrack
@@crashboredom2 Yeah, it once again proves the point that Soken just is a complete and utter god. After Shadowbringers and Endwalker I was already thinking there's no way he can surpass himself with XVI, it'd be good but surely not AS good. Wrong again. Generally, this studio is something else man. They just continuously improve upon work I thought couldn't possibly be improved upon.
Underrated how? He's just your typical minor villain that you forget as soon as you beat him, i wish we had to kill Odin's horse instead given the name
@@Kumire_921I think he is the horse. Note the particle effects all over the arena after Clive "kills" him and that his body disappears after Barnabas slices the building.
@@The_Arrow_Ace59 Nice. I'm glad they brought in details from the real-world lore for some of the summons-- it will be interesting to see what they intend/intended to do with Leviathan.
It’s funny to see someone else using the combo I found while playing of lightning rod + gigaflare. Shows its OP status. I haven’t seen many others running Will o the wykes like I do though.
@@HellGatyr Lightning rod + diamond dust makes staggered enemy instantly at x1.50 dmg modifier. Also even on new game + final fantasy mode diamond dust can instant stagger or at least 50% stagger any miniboss
Someone, please, for the LOVE OF GOD, tell Asmon about mastering abilities and being able to then assign them to different eikons other than their own. Oh and that there are other eikons than Phoenix, Garuda and Titan 😂😅
"I'm so bad at multitasking' says the raid leader. Also, Svarog is the name of the Slavic equivalent to Haphaestus and Wayland. Also Also, Svarog was only hard because the game doesn't let you turn Eikon. Also also also, Mid is pretty mid but uncle is best character. Incidentally, gameplay and cutscene segregation sucks as it always does. No way Clive would be punked like that.
