The Road We Walked - Final Fantasy XIV AMV (Footfalls)

Фильм және анимация

FULL SPOILERS UP TO SHADOWBRINGERS PATCH 5.55
A little AMV about my memories through Final Fantasy XIV's main scenario quest over the past 5 years I've been playing this game. It's very rough (yes, I'm aware of the stuttering, nothing I can do about that unfortunately) and not meant to be taken entirely seriously, as I didn't have a lot of time to put it together, but I still thought it would be fun to do. I'm allowed to be cringe, just this once.
Special thanks to all my fellow Warriors of Light who appeared in this video, be they from my server, Odin, or the rest of the Light data centre. Y'all have been (mostly) wonderful this past half-decade. I'll see you in Endwalker!
Regular video content will resume soon! Hoping to have a new video essay up in the next couple months.

    "Yours is a long road my friend And it streches on to places beyond imagining With Your every step , these grand adventures shall grow more distant and Faint And there may come a day, when you forget the Faces and voices of those you have met along the way On that day, I bid you remember this That No matter how far your journey may take you, you stand where you stand by virtue of the road you walked to get there For in times of Hardship, when you fear you cannot go on The joys you have known The Pains you have felt The prayers you have whispered and answered They should ever be your strenght and your comfort This , i hope , I believe ..here at memory's End"

    To think this all started by giving us form, a name, and walking a path for adventure. To end up being a hero of two worlds, making countless friends, losing a fair to fate, felling the toughest of enemies, and still not losing ourselves in the process of it all. And now thinking back. Makes you wonder where that Chocobo Carriage is now? The start of your grand adventure and path to shape history. Go, Warriors, best not miss that carriage.

    On the Stormblood segments, I highly appreciate the given mentions to Yotsuyu/Tsuyu The lass deserved much sympathy after knowing how much pain she went through from her own people (mainly her parents and the asshat Asahi) and the Garleans, she was not at fault for becoming the monster that she was, she was turned into one in combined pain from both parties, she was desperate for help yet noone reached out to her until Gotsetsu did. Already knowing it was too late for her, she at least wanted vengeance for the majority of the pain wrought to her, and to her fulfillment, spilled Asahi's blood. She deserved a kinder fate.

    The thing that always struck me about Yotsuyu is that everyone who was supposed to, by normal convention, care for her -- her parents, her brother, her husband -- abused and mistreated her. The man who had absolute justification to hate her, chose to show her kindness and compassion. And ultimately, that's what broke her.

    Are you actually pulling the "Hitler had a harsh upbringing" argument? Dude, her past does not absolve her of her many horrific crimes. Her fate is already far too kind than it should be since so many people seem to hold her so highly, people for whatever reason think she has a redemption arc when she doesn't. The second she gets her memories back she goes back to being a psychotic murderer. People fell in love with the character "Tsuyu", then mistake her for Yotsuyu. Tsuyu is sympathetic and undeserving of such a fate, Yotsuyu deserved much worse than she got.

Lots of people have crappy lives. Not all of them decide to inflict on other innocents the pain unjustly inflicted on them.
