I still get chills when I watch this trailer. Its just so well put together and really captures the feeling of the long journey that the WoL has taken thus far.
Fun fact about the job changing in this video: The WoL's job changes in this video follow the order of their job changes throughout the game and its expansions: 1.X: Archer ARR: Warrior HW: Dragoon SB: Monk then Samurai ShB: Dark Knight
Actually 1.X WoL started out in the guild as a GLD, and *then* on his journey he became an ARC. You can actually see his sword and board behind him as he and his friends walking out of the guild to start their adventure :)
In two years of watching this trailer, it has NEVER ONCE not gotten me hyped! Watching it be released bit by bit during the Fan Fests, and finally seeing the whole thing before knowing what SB was going to bring... and then after, and knowing just how much of a gift SB really has been. It still gets me!
I just discovered you while looking at Endwalker trailer reactions, now I see that you have reaction videos to a ton of FFXIV content and I love it. Your reactions are so genuine and joyful, it's like going thru these moments for the first time all over again. Thanks and keep up the good work!
this is my fav trailer. endwalker trailer is good but this one. this one will always make me feel goosebumps and i remember how many times i watched it before shadowbringers release this one starts slow and the music and the whole action starts to build up to the end. endwalker trailer is just a bunch of stuff happening at the same time and the music changes a lot compared to this one that seems organic
I remember having basically the same reactions! Literally bonkers how hyped this trailer got everyone. Can't wait to see your reactions to the story and SUPER canne wait for EW
Love this trailer!! Personally, I wish the title screen and cinematic would adjust to reflect the player's progress through the story. For example, up to patch 2.55, you get the ARR start screen and cinematic, and then it changes to HW until the player reaches and clears 3.55 and so on and so forth... Just personal preference, of course. Don't much like the idea of getting a cinematic that depicts events waaaaay ahead of where I'm at.
@@Soooooooooooonicable I suppose in that case it ought to pick from whichever character has more progress in the MSQ, but then again this adds another layer to the whole thing and might not be feasible... lol
This is spoiler free btw. Here is the Shadowbringers story writer being introduced at PAX a while back after people went through the 5.0 story. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ywhTf2c5v9Y.html Enjoy the ride, it's a really really good one
As you're making your way through Shadowbringers, totally recommend checking out the Patch Trailers, would love to see your reactions to 'em! The 5.0 Launch Trailer is awesome, and 5.2 onward they really upped how cinematic they got with them! They're a lot of fun for building up the hype. Though, could understand if you wanna go through everything blind too!
AAAAAAAAAH YEEEEEES A TRIPLE UPLOAD!!! We eatin good LOL!!! 😭 I just finished watching the 4.4 and 4.5 videos and aaaaaaah between all the scions going awol and the sense of hopelessness that came with that, to the Gaius reveal, to the ending fight with "Zenos" and gettin rescued by Estenien! God I love this playthrough so much 😭😭😭 I can't wait till I finish finish the game so I can watch on twitch spoiler free 👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
Your reactions is perfect! That's how we all felt the first time we saw it. Thank you for the quick upload after 4.4 and 4.5!made me so happy seeing those, I really love your videos. Thank you!
We finally get to your reaction to Shadowbringers. Did you not get spoiled by this trailer EVER in all your time playing this game? I remember when I was a wee sprout two years ago and I watched it before even starting the game, most of the trailer's content totally going over my head.
Pfft, now this was a wholesome reaction. Shadowbringers is soooo good. May you enjoy every moment of it. Side note: The crystal song you use....that song hits me so hard every time...in so many ways.
I'm a WoW refugee and I just got to ShB, but I have no one to share my excitement with, since I'm behind. But at least I can go back in time and share excitement here UwU. Also, "pray tell" is now a part of my vocabulary now.
Seeing someone go into the Shadowbringers trailer blind, but with all of the background and context from playing through the previous expansions, is wonderful. And brought back my own memories form when the trailers had launched and we were trying to piece together all the clues and hints about wgat was coming. You're in for one hell of a ride.
So I just discovered you yesterday evening and I am noticing now it seems like maybe you discovered FF14 last year or 2020? I started 14 back in 2015-16, took a huge break shortly after Stormblood launched, came back last summer, honestly was probably getting into Shadowbringers right around when you did. While I regret not playing it when it was new, I'm so happy I finally came back. I remember people telling me I was missing out... lol this is so good. And I love seeing your confusion at some parts to the trailer! Master Matoya, for instance hahaha
So... in the actual Shadowbringers MSQ, *all* of these questions will be answered. I know they threw some bits at you in that trailer that made you go "wait... what!?!?" ... yeah, I think all of us had the very same reactions while we were eagerly awaiting ShB release.
Aw man, honestly, thank you for these! :) It was nice to be reminded of the cooler plot points for Heavensward and Stormblood, since it was quite a while back when I played those :D Really cool vids :)
I got chills and the onion ninjas are always around for every FF14 trailer reactions. I get a bit emotional, since I've completed the story, every time I'm watching those trailers. Best game!
I was SO expecting this! To this day I still get the chills when watching this trailer is so damn epic. I'm so ready to watch your reactions to everything this it's gonna be awesome.
it's always wonderful to experience the hype and excitement again, that this trailer brought, through someone else's reaction. Your reaction was great!
This popped up on my feed, and as a FF vet, I love to see streamers and people who have had chat/others tell them not to spoil anything by watching trailers and to play through to reach those expansions before watching them just to see the reactions. It's wholesome and I love to see it, to watch someone have the same excitement and questions that I had when I first watched them brings me happiness. Stay with the game and enjoy the story, it is amazing.
