Ever since their introduction in the original Final Fantasy, the Four Fiends (Lich, Kraken, Tiamat and Marilith) have featured quite heavily throughout the rest of the franchise. It hasn't always been as you might expect though!
Indeed, as the franchise progressed to Final Fantasy II (Zombie Borghen, Tiamat, Astaroth, Beelzebub), there was a very different interpretation of the Trope. And by the time we got onto Final Fantasy IV (Scarmiglione, Cagnazzo, Barbariccia and Rubicante) and Final Fantasy V (Gilgamesh), things had started to flourish and take a rather different turn.
Join us, as we delve into the intricacies of the Four Fiends trope and how it has been put into play throughout the history of the franchise, starting with Final Fantasy I through to Final Fantasy VI.

This video has been an absolute fiend to pull together...! Yes, that's a terrible pun, but it's just such an expansive topic and it's for that reason that we decided to split it up into two parts. We hope you enjoy this part and are excited for part two as the interpretation of the Four Fiends gets even more interesting with the newer games! Hopefully we'll be able to share it soon. ~Darryl/Lauren/Chris

@firetarrasque4667 6 лет назад

You should probably establish that *every* one of the original Four Fiends were all D&D monsters. Liches are undead wizards of extreme power, quite iconic in D&D, Mariliths are also called type 5 demons, and also just Mariliths, and their design is nearly identical. Kraken are, of course, in D&D, and there was some similarity between their designs, specific to those too. Tiamat is of course, you know, the most iconic evil god of D&D. You kind of understated D&D's influence.

@evanv.3762 6 лет назад

Will you analyze Final Fantasy 12's four fiendish battles, if they realistically exist (kind of stretching it but the boss fights against Judges could be fiendish battles I'm not inclined to defend my argument however).

@pheonixowl999 6 лет назад

@@firetarrasque4667 Saying that they are all from D&D annoys me a little bit. While it is possible they are all D&D inspired, most things in D&D (including all of those) are based on actual mythology.

Well hey now. Let's not get carried away. Rubicante makes it extremely clear that it was Lugae who turned Edge's parents into chimerae.

@legoworld246 4 года назад

Technically, you could also make a point that Emperor Gestahl had 4 fiends working for him in FFVI... or rather 4 magitek warriors. Terra, Celes, Leo and Kefka. So that's another way you can see the 4 fiends trope being kept in FFVI. So really, FFVI has actually 4 SETS of the 4 Fiends trope. There's the 4 battles version with Ultros, the 8 fiends with the Dragons, the 4 servants of the villain with Gestahl's Magitek warriors, and 4 bosses in the final dungeon with The Tryad and Atma Weapon.

5:35 I mean Hades is an earth-aspected god as a god of both death and wealth, not a fire-aspected god like the Dante's Inferno-ized Disney version. And yet Nald'Thal is fire-aspected in spite of clearly being a mashup of Hades (death and wealth) Castor and Pollux (twins) and Themis' Scales of Justice (Nald'Thal also represents balance and Ul'dah's logo is scales with Nald'Thal being the city-state's patron deity and is represented as scales in the Eorzean tarot cards used by the Astrologian class which are based on The Source's constellations (clearly representing Libra, which is based on Themis' Scales of Justice, even being wielded by Azeyma who is clearly based on Astraea (Virgo) here, really makes you wonder what connection they had to the Ascians)).

FFVII did have four fiends. Instead of corrupting Earth, Fire, Water and Wind Shinra corrupted Science, Space Travel, the Military, and Technology. The fiends were Hojo, Palmer, Hiedeggar, and Scarlet. They just switched the concept from elemental to corporate but the concept of corrupting the things that make up the world remain the same. I never noticed till I saw this video. Good job!

@Zarren_Redacted 4 года назад

So fun fact about "Titan" in FF III, it's not actually Titan (Tie-tan), it's Titan(Tea-tahn). This is due to the developers of FF III using two different katakana spellings in the game, one for the summon, and one for the enemy. One is closer to the Greek pronunciation, and one is closer to the English. This became an issue during the localization of the 24-man raid series in A Realm Reborn. As "Tie-tan" was already being used for the elemental primal associated with earth, and "Tea-tahn" was going to be a boss in that raid series they ended up renaming "Tea-tahn" to Acheron. In FF III these enemies shared a pallet swapped model so it fit. At least until the added Acheron enemies in the next raid and they had to rename Acheron (formally Titan(Tea-tahn)) to Phlegethon. There's a post on the official forums from when this originally happened (some time back in 2014) "The sad Tale of Phlegethon and Acheron", but I pretty much paraphrased it all here.

@Sovairu 6 лет назад

That's because of limitations on the number of characters for any name or text box in the game. Since Final Fantasy IV (originally released as Final Fantasy II in the US because it was the second of the US games) was originally in Japanese, fewer characters were usually necessary to convey names and such, because of the kanji and kana of Japanese. However, English uses an alphabet, so while each character space in Japanese could represent a syllable, it was only a single letter in English. Therefore, translators had to make due with the limited space they had available. In subsequent, updated releases of Final Fantasy IV and other games in the franchise, programmers were no longer hampered by these limits, and they have been able to translate more or less as strictly as they see fit.

Lazarov's doing, and when he found out about it while he found the act a bit on the cowardly side, and as recompence healed the party at the start of there own fight so the fight would be completly fair, truethfully he was actualy the most honerable of the 4 feinds, yes he did destroy edge's kingdom but he did not do so thru subterfuge or foul play, he fought them and won thru strenght of arms alone, in a fair fight, and thus is how you eventualy defeated him as well
