FFXIV Lore- Understanding Omega 

Yep he's still around! Crazy how there are more Omega weapons just like him

That explains why alpha wanted the minion cUse he could instinctively feel him even if he though he was gone lol

@@Dio____Brando probably, and he probably wanted to help omega understand life.

I thought that was implied in Stormblood as well, but yeah, Omega is still around.

@@TheAzulmagia it was but I feel like the short story really sells what he was thinking in those final moments and what he intends to do from there on.

And they imply both of them have a soul

@@ViewTube_Emperor_of_Mankind Omega absolutely does have a soul.

@@ViewTube_Emperor_of_MankindLife finds a way. I don’t think it’s impossible, but just difficult.

Agreed! The lore is much more solid now and I had a blast revisiting my old script!

Ya but this one feels different from the rest of them since the others were created to fight Shinryu not Migardsormer. If they hadn’t written that in I would say that this is the same one.

I feel the second zone of the Dead Ends is the world the Garleans wanted. A world under one ruling community with seemingly a single human race and advanced technology.

@@thecatboy7494 If the final rejoinings were to occur, then the Convocation would have resumed control of the star. “Garlemald” as a distinct polity and culture would cess to exist. Assuming they survived 6 more rejoinings in the first place.

more like what the Allagan wanted. Garlemald juat follows what Allag did and Emet Selch did not know anything about Alphatron

@@ninboy01 That was the Ascian plan but the emperor wanted to use the rejoinings to get the power to overthrow the Ascians.

its getting real good now, im curious to see how the tribal questline ends.

Using Omega to “rediscover” creation magic would be kind of pointless. The Lopporits do possess true creation magic like that used by the ancients of Etheryis. So a means to learn it through cultural exchange already exists. And it’s not necessarily an ability that needs to be “taught” in a traditional sense. It’s still an innate ability that the modern people of Etheryis have. It’s just that the process of conjuring concepts takes an incredible amount of concentration that isn’t easily achieved by sundered beings. Hence why the Ascians devised the modern summoning method, which replaces the management of concepts with religious fervor to manifest creations. Albeit this technique was developed specifically to destabilize cultures and aetheric balance.

@@ninboy01 You ever wonder how we can make all these interesting things as a crafter with just tools, concentration and a near ritualized workmethod... and a bunch of raw materials and crystallized aether? ;D

happy to have you!

I've an entire video on dragons already done just for you!

You're very welcome!

likewise, I forgot about the story from SB and wanted to know more after EW....

The modern Allagab waa derived from Omega by using Omega's technology and reverse engineer it. Why do you think it tool 15 generations of Iron works to finally match Allagan technological advances? lol

@@Yokai_Yuri yes I am aware of that now, like I said I initially thought it was alleg creation but in reality Omega taught the Alleg and probably helped them recreate him

Ask you shall receive!

If you're referring to the FFXIV references he used in his raid fights. Those are just "stories" he gave life to. They're not officially part of the FFXIV canon. lol

As far as I understood the adventure through the Interdimensional Rift, all of the simulations crafted by Omega that we were pit against through combat were adaptations of fairy tales known throughout the realm. Exdeath, Kefka, Chaos, and even the Ghost Train - these entities have some form of folklore or mythological backing on the Star. Given what we have experienced on the First, notably the existence of Locke, Lenna, and potentially Bartz as heroes summoned by Elidibus during the Heroes Gauntlet, we cannot rule out the possibility that the villains of those tales were real at some point, and by extension that the worlds depicted in the simulations are just as real. Be they Reflections we have yet to visit, those that have been lost to the Rejoinings, or separate Stars that yet struggle forward, we are left with myriad possibilities but scant few answers.

@@Terron145 Beautifully said.

@@Terron145 Remember what Emmet implied we don't know our true history.

I believe he was trying to figure out what made us strong. The villains that we fought in the trials had great power and omega didnt understand what made the heroes win against overwhelming odds. So even if he made us fight the heroes he couldnt recreate what made them strong, like their spirit and power of friendship amd stuff lol.

@@joshragland1509 I believe Cid even outright says this.

I had an entire video ready on the different Limit Breaks but Endwalker kinda set that on fire! The video is technically all true still, but I KNOW that if I post it the comments are gonna be nothin but saying I'm wrong and that it's all Dynamis. lmao

@@SynodicScribe But it’s not. Not entirely. If they paid attention, Dynamis is an abstract force that has no effect on aether unless in massive quantities. It’s just potentially applicable, not a 100% thing. Yet some people act like it’s the new explanation?

@@acgearsandarms1343 I know that, and YOU know that. But from what my analytics tell me. A lot of people friggin DON'T! xD

@@SynodicScribe It’s a sad part of being an educator.

@@acgearsandarms1343 to be fair, the final boss's reaction to it definitely implies that dynamis at least has some part in it. Like perhaps it's aether and then somehow dynamis is used to augment it or something. Idk, all I know is the boss acknowledged it and that's enough for me to question it.

It's weird. They're still individuals(kinda) but they operated in like a digital hierarchy. They answer to the superior robot and only do as instructed.

@@SynodicScribe So they are kind of like the Geth then. They're individual consciences within a system. Thank you for clarifying. Do they all have access to any body or are they assigned access to their own bodies?

@@projecttrickyzed2306 The lower priority ones are limited to their own bodies, but the important ones can insert themselves into any unity. Theoretically.

@@SynodicScribe I see. So the higher ranked are on the cloud. XD

If you think of modern society now, we’re sorta hive mind-ish. With access to the internet and mobile phones, we have access to a collective knowledge. Additionally, messages and news can spread to millions almost instantly. And we seem more conditioned to think the same. Twitter, Reddit, RU-vid, Discord, etc.. All of these connects the words and minds of millions together. Someone in Korea knows the same joke as someone in Alabama. Despite this, we still retain our individuality, though seeing my nephews connection to social media, I’m wondering how much is shaped by the internet zeitgeist.

1. Limit Breaks DO use aether, don't take the final trial in the expansion to seriously. I have a video on Limits breaks ready but I dunno if I should release it because of this confusion. lol 2. Ultima was based off the Allagans which was based off Omega, but its CORE was something much older. A "gift" from the Ascians.

I may temember wrong but wasnt the heart of sabik a kind of auracite given by the high seraph since she is the original creator of the ultima spell that the ascians learned

@@Searaphinn I don't recall that lore at all. We honestly know very little about the Heart of Sabik. But hey, I might have missed something! Wouldn't be the first time.

@@SynodicScribe i scoured the internet a bit and i think i recall that one of the ironworks engineers in the emerald weapon questline theorises that the core could be a chunk of The high seraphs original auracite tho nothing gets confirmed. Thats pretty much all i could find without researching deeper but as said i could be missremembering.

How? Easy: he drew on the power of the hero shades he summoned, everyone of the summoned

I want to dedicate an entire video to that, and how it relearned about emotion from his time as mini-omega. Such a good story!

This Omega was constructed in this universe and isn't a realm walker. Gilgamesh only pops up in other titles cause Exdeath banished him into the space between realities. What a way to set up cameos. lmao

This isn't the world hopping Omega

Aren't they more Adeptus Mechanicus?

I ain't omniscient! xD

They reproduce asexually soooooo, no?

Right?! I'm so glad I was able to come back to this. The Endwalker lore really helped to iron this out.

you really think he doesn't know the proper pronunciation? really?
