the only reason why yoshi-p ask us to play this on english dub, not because the lipsync problem, because sqenix want us to hear this line

I love the part where Clive said "This has been your Final Fantasy XVI!" and Final Fantasied all over Ultima. Truly one of the Final Fantasies of all time.

. .

Yeah. Makes me wonder how it would have gone down if Shiva was there. From how Dion still remained in control, it seemed like Jill could have joined the fight. The way they were stating the risks made it seem like Dion was going to point Bahamut at Ultima and hope he'd attack him. Kind of like how Bruce Banner uses the Hulk. But no, he's in perfect control, Eikons apparently only go berserk when their Dominant goes crazy whether or not Clive absorbs their powers.

@@chrisdaughen5257 They were just making what guesses they could about what might happen. They only had one example after all.

@@chrisdaughen5257 Jill was already half stone at that moment.

​@@Dragongard Dion should have been fully stone. He absorbed the mother crystal like Kupka, but he only got his head cut fighting Ifrit.

​@chrisdaughen5257 dominates can all absorb a different amount of aether it's random luck. And the more aether the dominate can hold the stronger there eikon

Always nice to see that Asuras Wraths legacy of punching god right in the face lives on.

@@emetantiI was thinking the same thing!! 😂😂

Rejecting God and Punching him in the face. Demi Fiend would be proud.

Not to mention seeing it do 999999 damage!

@@emetanti After seeing him get knocked the fuck out, I was hoping that Clive would blow Ultima’s head off like Asura did to Chakravartin.

THIS ^^ I was curious who would be the call out during Odin's part and the goosebumps were REAL

I love Google slides too

I mean probably but personally it made me laugh out loud.

More emotional than Rocket Raccoon’s origin in GOTG vol 3?

I feel it so damn much that I continue to cry over it..

What about Logos?

@@Franklin_Malloy Logos means "Thought" or "Reason", and it's the opposite of Mythos.

Dude that final boss was ridiculous!!..I had to look over my shoulder a few times playing it at night in my room lol..amazing work!!

you need help

@@relly793 let people enjoy things

You need joy in your life

Lol these the type of lames that still live off their grammas welfare lol..they telling me I need joy in my life when I got a Huracan in my garbage 😂😂😂 lames

Harry Lloyd’s performance was amazing! He also voiced Z in Xenoblade 3, that’s why i thought they were so similar lol

Exactly, it felt it started to become more personal as the fight went on

If you play Asura's Wrath, you'll notice similar deal with Chakravartin. Hell, Clive and Asura even defeat their big bads in a similar way.

@@vestal3430 That and both of their respective boss fights took place inside Origin

@@JustJuan731I think that’s because he divided himself into multiple Ultimas. When they all come together he drops the “we”

Gotta click bait somehow

Yeah there is no secret ending at least according to everything I could find online which is surprising you'd think they'd have at least a couple endings

@@mr.brightsai6772 that was never going to be the case, Yoshi P said the story was one and done. at the end of the day the main protagonists[Clive, Joshua, Jill, Torgal] survived anyway and Leviathan may be a DLC.

@@mr.brightsai6772 nah, AFAIK all mainline final fantasy games have one fixed ending

@@GiorgosAigio96 but Clive and Joshua didnt survived

Cid was with him throughout this battle.

Clive IS Cid. I love that is shows that we carry on Cid’s will in a palpable way. Cidolfus the goat fr

Loved the entire game but Cid was by far my favorite character. The voice actor absolutely nailed the role.

Made me emotional. Cidofus's soul lives in him. 😭🥺😭

Even with like 25% power (maybe 50%), I'm sure he was able to teraflare (assumption made because of the flare turned yellow) ultima prime and megaflare him. Shows you how insanely strong he is as a dominant and as a prince of indomitable will.

All the bad stuff he did wasn't even his fault, but he still fights for forgiveness

You want forgiveness? Get religion!

Indeed!💯👌🏼

GOLD EXPERIENCE!

Ya boi hit him with the Chakravartin-Killer Gold Experience Special.

There is always some fool who wants to rule the world! Always forcing others to do what they cannot do for themselves! And that's why I pray to no one! nor I will be to!

@@SuperFusionAJ93 And. Above all else. I will NEVER. FORGIVE YOU. FOR MAKING MY DAUGHTER CRYYYYY!

Ok

The epilogue of the first Final Fantasy has a title drop.

If he doesn’t bring it home for best voice actor at the game awards I’m gonna lose it

@@michaelhunter3692faxxx

​@@michaelhunter3692he couldn’t 😢

@@sazidulkabir9290 it’s all good ffxvi did win best soundtrack tho and ffvii rebirth got highly anticipated game for next year awards

And I’ll absolutely nail your ass

7 was still better though

@@beastmotoz That's great and all but nobody fucking asked.

More like Devil may cry. Lol. Should have copied the gameplay of FF15.

Nah, if they copied Devil May Cry that gameplay would have actually been good lol

Same here

I also felt sad after the fight when Clive returned to Joshua’s lifeless body, it’s like I won but my little bro is gone😢😢

Ultima face is basically young Christopher Walken

Theyve been doing the whole "evil creator god" a lot lately

Lamest villain since Kuja. Ardyn would eat this mfer.

@@1buszybudy13 since the first Final Fantasy, the story is basically a bunch of adventurer killing a God, or a villain that ascended into God. Yet different execution, but most of them are DnD inspired fantasy, except 7 and 8. FF7 gave you capitalism as an enemy, while FF8 is a high school musical drama.

Really? This guy clicked with you? Personally I thought he was the most boring antagonist I have ever seen in an "RPG". For me personally this might be the worst Final Fantasy game yet, mostly due to all these shallow characters and the lack of interesting antagonists. The demo also made you believe you would see some intrigues in this game but no.. almost every leader just dies in a cutscene, with an exeption of those with a kaiju. This game was all about spectacle, not about a story or it's characters. It's not even a real RPG, it lacks almost everything that defines RPGs or JRPGs.

Yeah I was a lil confused at first too, but essentially, yes.

Good thing that there was no Jack Garland around.

@@igormartirosov2296Jack would Falcon Punch Clive before he does.

@@user-cp7co1wb8n Jack would be the shit out of Ultima. Jack is Chaos😈

I think he waited because he was busy merging with the other ultimas and taking his sweet time lol

​@@user-cp7co1wb8nJack: "THIS IS NOT THE TIME!"

finally, Sephiroth was dethroned.

I thought ultimate was ugly as shit but his final form design is so badass

I love fighting blue bahumet with wings. Especially when it's just the same powers being matched. And the name for the boss is really original, never seen that name be used before in the series ever.

for me second best together with Kuja behind Sephiroth. Those two had the personal tragedy going for them and were more relatable.

@@mobpsy1526 in terms of character, I'd agree with Kuja. My comment was meant purely in terms of the fight, not necessarily the character.

Him doing the shield of rosaria salute saying that he’ll shield the firebird’s flame forevermore right after losing Joshua and inheriting his powers… powerful

A good way to end the FF Roman numeral games.

I am the final fantasy six teen

This has truly been the Final Fantasy XVI.

@@anklemannSquare Enix had stated that they’re considering moving on from using Roman numerals for “main” Final Fantasy titles (partially because they know if they ever get to 30, the internet will be… well, the internet).

@@BB-fy8kn sex

That side quest where you serve people food? Absolute poetry, bro this game is mediocre

⁠​⁠@@DepressedMicaiahASMRagreed, the game fell off halfway through, Ultima is the most boring villain. The qte’s in the boss fights are so shit. And don’t even get me started on the performance. Combat is still really fun, especially respec and the 7 different Eikon powers.

LOL GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE. This game was cheeks. A step up above FFXV but a step down compared to Remake.

You will. Trust Square. They know what they are doing

@@FrankLotion9461your opinion

There were so many references to other work in this game, the 2 I can remember right now were the ninja you fight in the Greatwood has a move that really reminds me of Rock Lee from Naruto (the lotus technique where he izuna drops you) and then the finishing move on Typhon was a reference to Goku vs Freeza on Namek (the spirit bomb before he turns Super Saiyan)

Asura would be proud

I think that has merit.

i thought it was hinted that if joshua survived perhaps he also was able to save clive or if the game wasnt well recieves they could say clive died and thats the end

It was stated in the game that once the curse took hold you were screwed as it would continue to spread. He also said that his body couldn't handle all that power and that Ultima was mistaken thinking that he could. Clive be dead.

​@@XultanisDragon nope only his hand turned to stone the curse was stopped because there is no more magic for it to spread anymore so...Clive has to put down his sword now

@@drakofox1362 Nah, the broski is dead. He already talked about how all the power was too much even for his body meaning his body couldn't handle it. His hand turning to stone just means that he is soccumbing to the curse. It was said that once the curse takes hold it spreads, didn't say anything about magic needing to be used after. Using magic makes it spread faster but he already pushed his body to the limits with what he did. He tried to do everything to bring back Joshua but couldn't. He could only repair the flesh but not bring back the life that was lost. He then used his power to take out the last mother crystal and he used everything he had to do it. There were other people who knew about Joshua's idea about writing his book. Probably one of the kids or even the scribes of the Flame who did it. The brothers are dead.

"I said! It's over!" (Finishes Ultima off with epic climatic clash!)

Agreed

went with both the super large wings and super long tail

@@ChocoMogu15nah, he’s better as a dragon and not some robot angel guy

@@user-wu4ed3zl4byeah the Bahamut from FFXV looks cool but doesn’t look like he would be bahamut

​@@Temperance_XVIIi thought he was cool until i noticed its a dude in a dragon suit

Pretty much, yea lol

More the gnostic vision of Christianism. Jesus and Sophia (but showed as a male here, Clive) vs Demiurge/Satan, an evil fake god more than a demon king.

Wat

I want Clive back with Jill

the Torgal final quest made me cry as well.

@@supermonteiro which one is that?

@@mymelody3881 before the final fight, if you have done the previous torgal quests, you get the final one, where Sharon says Torgal has been sad and crying lately. It´s a very emotional quest about Clive and Torgal bonding.

Damn right!

Same here! glad im not the only person who thought this!

No doubt it's by design. They pay hommage to a lot of past FF, even the main battle theme starts in a very similar way to FFVIII's!

Find the flame final boss version 🔥

I have a better one for Leviathan: Tides Unobstructed

Don't forget Asuras Wrath! :)

😆 Good one!

Didn't the ending kind of go that way ? Clive And Joshua ( Looked like them ) were kind of re-birthed through the mythical phoenix

So true

I'm almost getting (at least on a physical level) Jenova vibes from Ultima. Just goes right into the uncanny valley and never lets up.

@@atmastand3485Ultima’s design (of all its forms) is great cause he/they referenced all the best villains of FF. Typhon second form as well when he gets 6 wings, looks like Kefka from VI. Dark Ifrit with “one black wing” - Sephiroth references. Ultima’s an cosmic entity like Zeromus from IV. He manipulated everything and everyone to make the MC stronger from the beginning, just like Ardyn in FFXV. Used to live in a society of divine beings now lost and wants to recreate it and bring his people back - that’s Emet Selch FFXIV SHADOWBRINGERS Also kinda looks like Chaos in the ifrit form and the wings. of course Ultima from FFT, and FF12. But most of all, he thinks he can own someone else, just like Valisthea’s slavists. He’s exact opposite of Clive in everything starting from the former being divine and the second human. At first I would have imagined FFXVI with a human main villain like Barnabas, but when I understood these things of Ultima, it hit me. He/they had to be the one. Immediately in my top 5 FF villain ever.

Biblically speaking, Logos is God Himself. Yahweh, The True God, has a translation. It means "I AM". Israel also has a translation. It means: "He Struggles With God". So Israel means: "He Strives with I AM". To fight our better SELF and destroy our infernal shadow in order to evolve as people, is the true meaning of life. By doing so, we embrace Logos. Ultima, by showing that he despises Logos so much and wanting humanity to be a lifeless puppet, proves that he is not a true god. He is Negative Energy made manifest through the Emanations of God. (Emanations in Hebrew: Sephiroth) He is not the Creator of man. He is the Creator of man's weakness. He is literally NOT Yahweh. He is J-E-N-O-V-A.

@@CloudStrife-NoctisLucisCaelum yup, that is very right. I have a passion for theology and found the terms used pretty well there. Logos as “the word within”, the willingness and awareness, true freedom, the divine fire of consciousness inside each one of us. Logos as intended by Hermes Trimegistus. In fact Ultima using Logos in a negative connotation against Clive was on point, as the Logos elevates human beings to divine beings, and he didn’t want that at all. Edit: Oh my I just realised how connected it is to Sephiroth reading your comment more carefully now, it’s insane.

Ultima is definitely most similar to Bhunivelze in terms of personality and story. Ultima also takes inspiration from FF9 Necron in terms of design- colour scheme. Both had 4 hands too.

@Ephideltrance Yeah, they were extremely similar. Even the endings of 16 & 13-3 are similar with their deaths, resulting in a world in the image of our real world

You're telling me that Ultima is Viktor from Arcane and Baines from Doctor Who? Mind blown.

​@@mackielunkey2205not only that, he's also the main antagonist of Xenoblade 3, because he seems to be slowly establishing a monopoly on final bosses

Clive technically did what shulk. He created a world with no need for gods or in this case magic

This game is what happens when Xenoblade Chronicles, DMC, Asura’s Wrath, and Final Fantasy have a foursome. In all the best ways.

Hell yeah@@athenaraines

The entire sequence is so beautiful. God is dead... and so is his world.

God is dead, and we killed him, for the sake of our world and humanity.

@@apollyonnoctis1291We need clive and jill back together in a DLC

Bro’s wish was granted

​@@a.lateralus5840double so lol (also think OP regrets that wish now 🤣)

People will aaaaaaaaaaalways complain about good things

Yup, just goes to show how people can just suck and or be so picky, closed minded with their opinions. But hey, it's their loss.

Final Fantasy, Persona, and SMT Fans are different level of insufferable.

Preach, brother - I agree that the combat wasn't incredibly well-suited for the smaller mob battles since you can just kinda plow through them by mashing, but the boss battles consistently extracted the best out of the combat system and made it really fucking fun. Especially lategame. And Story, Visuals, Sound Design, Voice Acting? All top-notch. There's a lot to complain about, but a million things to love

Same with Shiva and Ramuh

Odins max zantetsuken does more damage than it tho, its just that odin abilities are weak because they are only meant to charge zantetsuken

@@yngshoelaceea I have to agree with you I thought he may have meant when clive was doing the clashes going through each of Clive’s Eikons but they do roughly the same damage so yea you’re right it’s literally because Odins skills are just meant to power his special other than that they are ass I wanted Odins abilities to do more damage but I just stuck with Bahamut in the end having a whole Eikon around one move made it difficult to work with in combat especially when it takes a long time to charge to level 5 didn’t seem worth having with is a shame

​@@velvet33its kinda worth it one use of his ult almost fully charges it and you can basically spam it, it does roughly the same damage as giga flare and you can use it twice and a giga flare in one stagger combo

@@yngshoelace I been playing the new game plus when I do some more levelling of the abilities I will give it a try with some combinations just want to find the most optimal build to stagger fast and do big damage

Zettaflare is much stronger than Zantetsuken.

Honorable mention: Bahamut drank grimace shake and turns into a freaking satellite.

Me too. No other game out this year is gonna top that

Of course we all realised it, some of us just never chose to use the timely rings because they're for the ones who want to enjoy the story without the challenge of the fighting

Clive is alive and is the one that wrote the book not josh

So far as I see, Clive's side quest with Hippocratus has some dialogue about pen and Clive's desire to write these journey to a book. That's enough hint, it's Clive who wrote that

@@hehecat853No, they’re all dead.
