I swear this project is cursed. When I tried to render the first half of the animation, blender would crash every 10 frames. it's almost like there was an invisible force not wanting me to change Haurchefant's fate or something. The second half, however, was rendered without a single problem. I have never faced so many technical problems on a single project and I'm glad it's finally done.

I'll be real, with how Haurchefant was forced onto us as characters it 1 made me instantly be like "okay this guys going to die" and 2 due to how fast it all happened and because it didn't feel very organic, it really didn't feel like that big of a deal. Oh look a guy we met a few weeks ago died, so sad anyway. Honestly I wasn't even a big fan of Papalymo but his death got me real sad. Much more of a build up but I will admit I started in Gridiana so that probably helped.

The smell of burning wedding dress and burning skin, wet eye filling with gladdened despair. Her body plummeting as a blaze to the uncaring rock below like a forsaken comet. All the fanfare deafened as a single life slips through such praised fingers. The great vaunted hero and the broken corpse they stand upon like uneven stones. And the bodies of those all too willing to lay their lives down for them. A single death growing into a parade of corpses, their weight pushing the hero forward less they too fall among the mass.

I'll be real, with how Haurchefant was forced onto us as characters it 1 made me instantly be like "okay this guys going to die" and 2 due to how fast it all happened and because it didn't feel very organic, it really didn't feel like that big of a deal. Oh look a guy we met a few weeks ago died, so sad anyway. Honestly I wasn't even a big fan of Papalymo but his death got me real sad. Much more of a build up but I will admit I started in Gridiana so that probably helped.

I was literally crying in voice chat during Atiascope. I told my friends "I'm having a moment..." while doing the kneel emote in front of his armament.

Sprout White'Mage gains "Together Forever".
Amazing work. Really captures a lot of the emotion that we as players feel the days after The Vault... You really got me in the first 2/3rds of the video, where I thought it was just all happiness, sunshine, and memes. Much more of a gut-punch than Squenix themselves with their dull flashbacks after HW.
You really pierced my heart like that spear of light pierced Haurchefant's
MY EMOTIONS ARE WHIPLASHED
I love how this was basically me during Heavensward. Catboy White Mage main, didn't have a single other class leveled, and was similarly depressed when I finished the Vault. All my friends got quiet when I told them when I unlocked it and then didn't do it for a few hours, I was driving them insane by delaying for no reason lmao
I’m sobbing so hard right now.
This is a great representation of the human mind, in states of contentment in sleep, our own brains like to torture us by coming up with your greatest fear and using it against you
Three things: How could you. I love the ongoing use of characters through your videos. That was a piece of art. Excellent work and thank you.
Really making us go through it, huh? Went from laughing my ass off to trying not to tear up. Amazing animations as always, the eye movement at the end was fantastic.

Truly the FF14 experience
Her eyes were so expressive. Fantastic animation
This went from "fk yeah!" to "EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!" faster than Estinien spends money... I just got whiplash! My boy got did dirty.
Good to see I'm not the only ones whos character experiences nightmares of failure. For my WOL they remember reaching out to Edda in the deep croft, reaching out a hand to snatch them from the edge only to miss unwilling finger tips by inches. The smell of burning wedding dress and burning skin, wet eye filling with gladdened despair. Her body plummeting as a blaze to the uncaring rock below like a forsaken comet. All the fanfare deafened as a single life slips through such praised fingers. The great vaunted hero and the broken corpse they stand upon like uneven stones. And the bodies of those all too willing to lay their lives down for them. A single death growing into a parade of corpses, their weight pushing the hero forward less they too fall among the mass.

All of this loss and suffering... all happening in a year 😢 There is no way anyone's WOL is ok.

How does the WoL carry on? Azem sums it up perfectly. “Aye, it’s true. We’ve lost much and more. Known unimaginable suffering. But through it all, we never forgot what we dear to us. And that’s what gives us the strength to carry on.”

Woe betide the man who stands against the Weapon of Light, for death will be his reward. Death for him and his kin and all that he holds dear.

So that's why you answered "well..not yet" when someone said " We now have the white mage sprout trilogy thank you BenedictG " in the previous video XD
I really wish our WoL showed half this emotion in game. Poor sprout.

We didn't have time, remember in the ultimate we only succeeded due to our urgency. If we had taken our time we would've lost more
I was happy at first thinking he lived... Only for you to break my heart all over again :'(
Just let me hug that poor Sprout, give her a warm beverage and words of comfort... 😢
How fucking dare you turn a shitpost into more trauma. Great job!
This is the third time I cried from Haurchefaunt's death. That man has singlehandedly reduced me to tears far too many times.
You've raised my hopes and then dashed them expertly. Bravo, sir!

That was a rollercoaster of emotion
This is genuinely really great work!
OMG yoh i tried not to like this because of spoilers but its so damn funny it also went from laughing to serious real quick like an FFXIV episode jumping back into reality from a nightmare that was crazy PTSD kicks in..
not night at the brumes ost at the end 😭😭😭
Well this was a rollercoaster and a half.
See now I want the continuing adventures of WHM sprout
This video is an entire community's coping mechanism. Hello new sprouts! The pain never fully leaves.
Christ on a stick That took such a turn my ankles broke
Did not expect the feels, and i'm already somewhat immune to that cutscene after watching it so many times. Great animation!
Holy shit. THAT took a turn. Fantastic work, there, Bene!
Right. In. The. Feels. That really hit home.
Ah, Hershy. Gone too soon. We miss you. For those we have lost! For those we can yet save! ONWARD!
OMG you cannot keep doing this to her! To us!
Aww.. I love that you used the sprout from before. Really funny and absolutely heartbreaking. The eye movements at the end were a lovely touch.
I was SO happy watching the first part of this! I want him to liiivvvveeeee!!!! Absolutely Fantastic video! 🤩 It's incredible what you can do More please!
legitimately incredible- i never expected something like this, but it is utter perfection. Somehow you managed to make go into this expecting a cute little silly 'what if', and leave crying.
Alright, we NEED this as a dream sequence for when we sleep in an inn like in 1.0
It being the same catgirl as the relevant earlier video... Damn.
You didn't have to hurt me like this.
LMAO the Supa Hot Fire reference
I appreciate that you find ways to conclude your short animations! Well done BeneG!
At first i was yeah bitch! and then I was ::listens to dragonsong on repeat and sobs uncontrollably:: Great vid though!
I was so happy for a couple seconds 😭😭😭
I thought it was just a funny meme, but then it punched me right in the feels...
