    i remember when FF14 added him as a raid tier, being the Main Tank in the fight against him was amazing, even with cooldowns to reduce damage, he STILL hit like a truck to which the healers asked if i was using cooldowns "yes he is, Mustard Bomb hits THAT hard!!" came the other tanks reply 😂

    It lives up to its name as machine meant to try to kill gods....And I thought Final Fantasy XV's Omega was devastating considering it is practically immune to the Ring.

    I do love Final Fantasy XVI's iteration of Omega that is meant to kill Eikons/Dominants, essentially a god-killer. It definitely felt like it lived up to the reputation.

    Since this video is from 2021 apologies if you are told this already but you have some misinformation about XIV's incarnation of Omega (and I'm not talking about information that was added after this video was published). After the final fight with Omega, Cid says that it was the Warrior's human spirit that makes them so powerful, Omega wonders that if it integrates that power would it have the strength needed to return home but Cid says having the Human spirit would actually not help for no person can withstand that long journey alone without having their spirit broken, after that exchange Omega "dies". Though revealed in the extra story of an alternate timeline, Omega actually did move it's mind to the miniature toy Omega (built by Biggs and Wedge) and in that alternate timeline Omega managed to obtain the human spirit, a soul.

    That is indeed an error on my part, I thought Omega survived the final encounter beyond the part of its consciousness in the miniature. Thanks for letting me know, and thanks for watching the vid. :(

They are not done with Omega's story yet it seems.

    while Omega and Omega WEAPON are 2 different SUPER bosses their BOTH still a PAIN in the ass to kill Starting with FF5's OMEGA boss FF8's boss can be easily beaten as long as you keep Hero's/Holy Wars/Invincible moon in effect and don't DIE from its opening lv 5 death attack.

    I honestly hate the FFXIV omega because it really fucks with the lore about it and Shinryu which is a far more powerful dragon than Midgardsormer.
