I made this to signify my passion for Final Fantasy XIV, as well as my journey- and by extension, everyone's journeys. It's taken months of effort to get together, and was made as a labor of love. Happy 10 year anniversary, Realm Reborn! And thank you, my friends.
All of you.

A few notes:
- All of the screenshots used are from my own personal library. The ones I used here are just a small fraction- I have over 20 gigs of screenshots over the years! I felt like using them made the video both personal to me as well as relatable to everyone out there cataloguing their own journeys through Eorzea. Keep taking those shots!
- I wanted to use Meteor as the primary subject, but I also wanted to use my favorite screenshots, and having my WoLs screenshots juxtaposed with Meteor would've made both of them kinda stick out weirdly. In the end, I figured using my own character would- again- be more personable and true to myself.
- I despise RU-vid's compression, so try and watch this on a phone or on a high resolution screen if you can. For some reason, 1080p on desktops makes everything look like utter trash. It's kinda sad, but what can ya do?
- This was originally mainly made to be something I could share with my friends, but they all insisted I make this public. It’s a bit embarrassing, but that’s just the nature of making your own stuff!
- And finally, thank you again to everyone cheering me on about this project. This was more so an exercise in creative timing and emotional beats made to share with my friends than anything, but it was nonetheless an enriching experience. I'm hoping to ramp up production of a bunch of smaller videos soon!
