Interested in a video that talks about the NPC transition from 1.0 to (2.0+)?~ Or me covering some of the old stories? (The backstory on the reason why Minfilia's dad died is INSANE from what I saw!)

I love the idea of deep dives into the 1.0 characters, and their fates in 2.0+

We did get a companion on 2.0 onwards, it's the Chocobo. But it'd be great to have a customizable npc following us around and doing stuff with

Yeah but you can't have relations with your chocobo.

Man the path companion mechanic sounds so cool. I do hope that maybe they revisit some things from 1.0 again. Key word, some. Thank you for the video Plushie.

It actually wasn't cool. They didn't accompany you for anything. They essentially just functioned as your characters "voice" the way Alphinaud usually does now, as NONE of the NPCs in 1.0 played a large enough part at the time, so it gave WoL someone to contemplate the happenings of the world with. Gaius kills them in his premier cutscene and then the main cast finally shows up and becomes more central to the story. A 'human' companion to fight with you in the game would be cool, but 1.0's Path Companion wasn't that.

Bruh... they NEED to add the companion back, even if you have to pay for it like with the retainers and even if you have to pay for it + being available only on Dawntrail expansion and forward... can you IMAGINE the RP posibilities with character creation and having such character at your side anytime apearing on cutsecenes with you!? SE is really sleeping on a huge pile of money right there. I'd pay for that.

Ooooh...Great video! I really loved how before it ended, so many crazy things began to happen. It kind of sucks that the coolest stuff to ever happen in a mmo, happened to help kick off it's end, though. D: They could do something like that to kick off an expansion, I think. Not have it in plain view, but just things appearing around the world, have players guess and speculate stuff happening. Would be pretty neat! o:

I really hope the 1.0 story will come back in the current game of ff14. No matter how slim that may be, I believe it’ll be a good experience to understand the whole story before realm reborn.

they could use the NG+ system in the game for that, easily

It'd be great to have a time traveling expansion where we revisited 1.0

the last time SE made a Time Travelling plot in an expansion, the game fell off

Your old path companion is now your retainer. That's my headcanon.

As I understand it, the Path Companion is killed by Gaius, as they're the one that ragdoll on the ground. I don't recollect the Path Companion being in the game after that cutscene.

7:05 --- Yeah, you have to be an alchemist to get to that particular part ^^° ... How many omni crafters do we have? ^^° The Path companion seems to be some sort of pre-trust system. I dont know if they were only there in cutscenes like normal NPCs you would interact with, or if they would follow you around like the "heros" and "henchmen" in GW... sort of.

Just play ff14 today, do leves with no mount, no jump, you have to run back to cities inn after every 8 leves to get more. you can't teleport because you've already spent your anima. you'll want to use airships. you can't use the marketboard, you can only buy directly from other peoples retainers, you can't use the repair guy, you have to have a crafter fix your gear for you. If you really want to immerse yourself further, use walk instead of run because the maps was far more maze like and bigger in 1.0. make sure you do this on a japanese server because at the release of 1.0 they was only hosted in Japan. cap your fps to 20 or 30 as thats what most pcs ran the game at. now you do not need to wonder. It's close enough. I played 1.0, i still have my legacy character. you've probably heard it before from another legacy player. You do not want this. The only reason i played and tried 1.0 was because WoW released Cataclysm at the time and it sucked. There was nothing else i considered good to play for an MMO at that time.

I'm late to the party, bit I sure learned a thing or two!

Wow, I really wish they had kept region-specific cutscenes for making a character. Very interesting video anyways!

This is the kind of video I didn't know I needed. Well done Plushie :D

a reminder that 1.0 was some how more tedious than FFXI in it's prime, Yoshida was and still is a hardcore FFXI player, and even he couldn't stand 1.0

No it wasn't better, I played it. It made most legacy players who were from FF11 go back to FF11.

1.0 had major flaws, which couldn't be fixed without rebuilding everything with how spaghetti the code was, and how on steroids the engine was on. Beside those dammed flower pots with too much shaders and some other little issues, 1.0 was fine. Actually I think we need to credit yoship and his team on that not only for ARR and onwards, but because right when he took the lead, he started with his team fixing 1.0 AS MUCH AS THEY COULD xD Legit 1.23 was great but things were still looking so bad for the future without a whole remake of the game.. Cause lets be honest, WoW looked better, Swtor looked better, many other games looked way better, it was 2010 nearly 2011... But its not the fault of the team, they had to work around the ps3 at that time and eeh... even tho ps2 did an amazing job with FF11.. FF14 on the ps3 was an another pair of sleeves. Oh yea and the 1€ per character, and the market wards... god, please, never that again.

lol no wow didnt looked better then 1.0 I would say out of the sub games we have today graphically ff14 1.0 looks better we we comprate to other sub MMOs in 2010. while the optimisation on 1.0 was sht yea. still sht not as bad tho(I have a beast pc and cant play ff14 at 4k more than 60 fps). they downgraded ff14 graphics a lot which is sad. animations, graphics, effects were really good in 1.0 to the point that they look better in most cases then current ff14. even the 7.0 graphics update while I makes ff14 look better ff14 still has this plastic, cardboard feel and look that makes the textures and graphics look dated, lets not talk about animations. i wished they didn't downgrade 1.0 as much as they did and just worse on optimising the game. imagine if ff14 still had 1.0 lv of graphics and on top of that it got the 7.0 update, the game wouldn't look dated as it does rn. but I guess the engine and code as you said was too much of a mess to do that
