I appreciate that you've recorded the clears where the boss finishes their hard enrage casting, most have very cool animations that rarely get seen to completion. Kudos!
this being the first time i watch a full run made me so surprised to see a BSoD that i had to google if it was a thing fr, LOL. it's a nice editing touch and i wish it was implemented in the actual fight :(
Nice job adding the VFX! A little sad that the P6 theme is mistimed tho (it starts just when you can see her eyes, not right away). Other than that, great.
@@doinyourdad_6969 Pulls are initiating the boss fight. So that means they died as many times. Each pull can easily last a few seconds, up until the last enrage mechanic
@@doinyourdad_6969 Yeah, although most of them ended within the first 30-60 seconds. It's a lot less for each individual phase of the fight. But still, quite an exhausting experience.
I'm manually editing back in and balancing all of the sound effects (and music). I really love the fights and sound design in the game and wanted to make something I might want to watch again for our group's first clears. The unedited videos are usually in the description for comparison.
I really want to do this content, do you have any tips for someone doing that who has a full time job? Also any other tips for preparing, like what my skill level should be or what content can help prepare? (I've only completed Hydalen Extreme)
You'll have to complete the savage tier that unlocks whatever ultimate you're interested in doing (Abyssos in this case). There are some recruitment channels where you can find a group that meets your needs, like the Balance or FFXIV Recruiter discords. Other than that it's just a matter of investing time. I think anyone is capable of clearing the hardest fights in the game, just need to persevere. Fights like this naturally get easier over time as well. Good luck to you if you decide to try!
Hey man, I love the is series of videos you put out! I am excited for the Eden one! Hey, quick question, what ratio do you have in settings for boss music to boss sfx? It’s perfect!
Hey, sorry for the slow response, haven't been checking this channel often. I manually mix all of the audio (I work with a muted file and add all of the sound effects personally), so the ratios are different for each fight. Typically boss effects (damage) are at about half the volume of the music, and ambient effects are slightly lower. I also try to take distance into account when mixing the audio.
Congratz ^^ But one question: Is the blue screen really from the game? Or was it a funny edit from your side to... hide a wipe for the sake of the video? XD
I believe the ability the boss uses at that point is also called “Blue Screen”. It follows all of the bug coding mechanics, a full system shutdown/reboot, and every safety mechanism and overclocking protection being forcibly disabled by Omega.
