Clive is definitely alive, the game devs gave all the clues throughout the story dialogues and especially in the side quests. Everyone's picking up some of the points here and there but to lay out the 7 points that basically prove Clive survived: 1. The final crying scene directly references the side quest dialogue. When is Jill crying the sun rises and she stops crying. This is after Jill and Clive have told each other how much they mean to one another in one of the side quests. During the side quest she mentioned how she would cry looking up at the stars at night during dark times. She tells him that no matter how sad and dark the night is, the sun will always return at dawn. And that she knows that Clive will always return to her. 2. Biology: Wolves howl in nature to communicate with their pack mates to tell them where they are and to guide them back. When Cid is dying in front of the group, Torguil whimpers to show remorse and sadness as but actually doesn’t howl even after Cid dies. So the fact that Torgal is howling instead of whimpering is indicative of Clive being alive. 3. The last thing Clive tells Jill is no more broken promises. He had promised her he would return to her no matter what. And we all know Clive is a man who honors his word. 4. Clive tells Harpocrates that after his quest/journey is done he will put down the sword and take up the pen 5. In the final fight with ultima at the end. Ultima tells Clive that 'this resistance is a fantasy he clings to'. Clive tells him that the only one living in a fantasy is ultima and that “this would be his final fantasy” (before Clive finally kills him). In the ending post credits scene, the book is titled “Final Fantasy”. The only one to mention that term was Clive in final battle and he was alone there. So no way Joshua would just happen by coincidence to title it the same thing considering it was based off a isolated conversation between ultima and Clive 6. When Cid died, Clive takes up his mantle and go by his name to honor the life he gave and what he stood for. So in the secret ending cutscene with the book author saying Joshua Rosfield, this would make perfect sense for Clive to do in order to honor his brothers memory. 7. If you 100% the game, the secret ending also has one dialogue line during the final fantasy book scene of audio of Clive giving the final narration saying “and that was the end of the journey”. Which is confirmation by itself that Clive lived to chronicle the story.

It is red flag, indicating his death. 5. Final Fantasy might also just be a reference to the end of the age of magic, which is fantastical. 6. Or the secret organization aiding the phonix lost their purpose and wrote history down as their last act of duty. 7. Or it is just his last words, before dying. He even confirms before nuking the nexus that his body cant hold on the power.

CID was apart of pack but his true owner is Clive that’s clear cut. 3.)see my point 1. 4.)only his hand turned to stone that’s all. Not a death flag they made it way to open that he lived. 5.)it’s a coined term used only once by Clive when fighting ultima. Only those two hear it Joshua is dead at that point and it was already confirmed earlier that the Phoenix can’t bring back the dead. The book makes the strongest case there is. Clive narrates the beginning and end of the game -> Clive gets the quill to chronicle his journey -> Titles the book the words he used to deliver the death blow to Ultima -> Uses Cid the Outlaw Symbol on the book -> Platinum Trophy is The Chronicler and uses the narrator's (Clive's) closing words as it's subtext -> Circle back to point 1 where Clive takes on the name of others. CID, wyvern etc. 6.)the secret organization wouldn’t know about what happens during the fight with ultima there’s no way they could as they would have no way of getting to origin nor were the present when Clive used the final fantasy quote. 7.) we only see his hand turn to stone and he says the magic is to great and get rid of all magic in the world. My line of reasoning and op make more sense as you can’t counter point 5 Clive was the only one to ever use that term/he narrates the beginning and the end that means he has to be alive to do so. Unless he narrating from the dead which doesn’t make sense. Jill smiling when the sun rises and torgal howling instead of whimpering like he did when cid died. Everything points to my line of interpretation being more solid than yours.

Hard to believe this game wasn’t even nominated for GOTY.

Its unclear whether or not Clive actually died based on the reoccurring themes in the game, the final side quests around Jill and Harpocrates, and Clive on the beach. His hand turns to stone but we don't see him actually die. He may very well be alive. The game leaves the ending ambiguous, with sacrifice being the face value interpretation.

The game tells us Clive always had a thing for books and he also was the only one who saw Ultima die. On top of that, Clive is taking the role of narrator towards the end saying "And thus our story ends." So what I'm thinking is Clive survived, maybe lost a hand, and took over Joshuas name as he did with Cid's name, and wrote that book in his name.

Well, there are a lot of hints to suggest Clive survived and wrote the "Final Fantasy" book in Joshua's name, to immortalize his brother. One big hint being a side quest with Harpocrates where he gives Clive a quill and suggests writing a book of his adventures. There are other hints as well, such as the symbolism of the sun rising when Jill and Torgal are looking into the horizon.

If he didn't, then why does the game begin and end with Clives voice as if he is narrating the whole thing? And Joshua died so the book must be written by somebody else, somebody who saw ALL the events written, someone who likes to take on anothers name to honor them....

My take is the ending is open ended. Its up to player interpretation. If they believe clive died or not, there are many hints that support both opinion.

There are actually some pretty strong hints that Clive survives the ending, and he penned the book using Joshua’s name to honor his brother. The biggest hint is that Clive is the one who narrates the story, not Joshua.

The game doesnt say if the eikons are ultimas creation or something?

@osakajoe6057

Жыл бұрын

Metia was most likely a construct created by Ultima’s race. It ceased to function when magic ceased to be. Jill never felt Clive’s death; she simply felt the “death” of magic and knew something significant had happened. The rising sun signifies the end of Ultima and his spell of darkness. Jill was relieved to know Clive had won. None of this confirms he lived. We know he lived by the absence of any death scene, and the presence of the Final Fantasy book penned by him (in Joshua’s name, but isn’t Joshua literally a part of him now, meaning it’s just one more moniker amongst many he uses).

Didn't Clive revived Joshua before he destroyed the crystal? Or at least tried he tried too, that was significant imo

To me the ending means Clive's adventure never happened it was just a work of fiction ie the final fantasy book written by Joshua rosfield

Deon proves death means nothing lol.he should have been dead like 3 times already lol😅

Ending is just too bittersweet 😢

Some great performances here, but Harry Lloyd's Ultima is so unnerving! Fantastic work!

False Clive faked his death. If youve played the side quests Jill wanted to leave the area and spread her wings...now that everything is settled and Clive no long can fight because of his hand he then escapes into the night with Jill

you're lying if you say you didn't cry at the end.

The narrator in the beginning of the game is Clive Rosfield, who is telling the Final Fantasy story.

That was a description not an explanation...

At 2:07 they said Ultima awokened when we destroyed Drakes Head. I'm not so sure about that... That was just a part of Ultima. The one that went into Joshua and emerged at the end when Ultima called for it. We know not when Ultima awokened but Ultima said they aklwoke from the slumber to see what had happened and began searching for the vessel which led to the manipulation of the core characters. Presumingly that's when Barnabas came to be and rose to be King

Clive Rosfield from Final Fantasy 16 is going to Dissidia Final Fantasy for PS5. Warrior of Light, Firion, Onion Knight, Cecil Harvey, Bartz Klauser, Terra Branford, Cloud Strife, Squall Leonhart, Zidane Tribal, Tidus, Shantotto, Vaan, Lightning, Y'shtola Rhul & Noctis Lucis Caelum will meet Clive Rosfield in Dissidia Final Fantasy.

Okay but you completely missed the part where he touches Joshua before destroying the origin?

IGN please finish 5 last sidequest after make new video 😊

Just finished the game... Thanks for the explanation

You don't address the fact that Clive saved his brother and that Joshua lived to write the book. Probably with Herpocrates's quill.

Clive didn't die, the side quest from harpocretes and jill made very clear that he did return.

Whether he is dead or alive is left ambiguous. That way if they want to make more content with him they won’t have to jump through weird narrative hoops. They also want people discussing it, but Clive is dead in my canon because this game killed a lot of my enthusiasm for the brand. I’m glad a lot of people liked it, but some are really defending it tooth and nail as if any criticism of it is a direct attack on themselves. It’s pretty extreme and over the top.

You don’t answer everything here. What did Clive do to Joshua before he died? Who wrote the book?

you left out the part where after joshua "dies" it looks as if clive revives him and all his wounds disappear. we saw jill react to clive's death due to the eikonic senses but not joshua's.

Would be nice to see a prequel involving the fallen Then a sequel loosely tied to the prequel and the following events of the main game

Loved the game and its story for the most part, but I’m a little disappointed in this game, alongside FFXV, embracing the kind of martyrdom that FFX so famously and categorically rejected. Especially with all of the side missions before the final stage so emphasizing living through this and returning home to their loved ones. It’s understandable that this didn’t happen, but still disappointing nevertheless.

It still doesn’t explain the beginning of the game as to why Clive saw Joshua from the future and influenced Clive to transform into Ifrit and try and kill Phoenix!!! Not only that but why would Joshua even bother “contain” Ultima if Ultima was already actively influencing all of the events around them. All that really accomplished was making Joshua sick.

The hooded man at phoenix gate wasn't joshua from the future, it was ultima, ultima even says at that point "we have found you" The writers wanted to specifically confuse you with hooded man (ultima) and hooded dominant of fire (grownup joshua) in the beginning. It is later revealed in the end of the Titan arc that the hooded man was ultima, and was manipulating events in the shadows, it was he who triggered the events on phoenix gate, it was he who instigated drake's breath, and it was he that manipulated hugo kupka to consume vast amounts of aether all with the goal of grooming clive to absorb all of the others' essences to become a perfect vessel for ultima.

Ultima needed all of his forms to be complete, at the very last mission it is revealed that joshua trapped one of ultima's many forms, this delayed ultima to an extent that he wasn't able to claim clive as early as he wanted giving clive enough time to build his strength and will and was eventually able to repell ultima's influence even after joshua had perished and ultima made complete.

The comment section arguing about if clive is dead or not is so funny 😂

why phoenix didnt morph with ifrit to become ifrit risen like when they beat bahamut when they were fighting ultima wtf also shiva should have join the fight...she didnt to save herself while bahamut sacrifice himself and why clive didnt try to revive dion too but just joshua?it sux if only dion dead while they both survive

Just finished it. What a game!

Technically speaking he only have the power of 7 Eikons or seven of the eight elements. Since Ifrit and Phoenix are two halves of one whole something they don't really explain why. And Leviathan is most likely going to be DLC content
