Holy shit.. just.. holy shit. This not only made me feel warm but it honestly brought me to tears. The fact that you put the angles as if every adventurer is filming their experiences and making it so real is just... that's the feeling of XIV, that's what I've been feeling WHEN playing XIV and why I log in almost every day... just.... I don't know if I can stop watching this, amazing Job as always Denmo

Alternate Title: Denmo makes us all feel feelings again

Man there's such a real handheld camera feel to this, I love it, tremendous filming and editing

When they knocked over the camera by accident, oh my God the editing makes this experience incredibly real. lol

This should be an actual ad for FFXIV. This is exactly how I feel playing for all these years. An actual Road trip.

This video made me feel nostalgic about something that I'm still experiencing.

I felt like I just watched a video version of a high-school yearbook and it almost made me cry :') It sparked a fire in me that reminded me just how much I love FFXIV.. Your videos are incredible Denmo thank you for this

The truth is that the more the world closes in on us, the more we all just want a world like this to explore. A world with adventure- but also joy, beauty, wonder, fun, passion. We die when we can no longer have these things. Not the death of the body, but the death of the soul. Thank you, Denmo for fanning those flames of life.

"Herein I commit the chronicle of the traveler."

I've stopped playing this game this March after 6+ years due to immense burn out not just with the game, but with what's happening in the world in general. This video made me cry because FFXIV is my first ever MMO and it made me feel so nostalgic and emotional about how many great and fun experiences I've had with the game. From finishing Sastasha for the first time, to finishing the MSQ of ARR, to clearing my first EX trial, to clearing my first Savage fight and then eventually to clearing my first Ultimate fight. I've realised how much I've grown not only as a player, but as a person in those 6 years that I've been playing. I've had burn outs with the game before but somehow this year I just felt like perhaps it's time for me to leave this game behind for good. I've accomplished so much in this game and it felt painful to leave it all behind but I was just so tired. However, watching this video made me reflect upon how much joy this game gave me and how much I love it. So thank you Denmo, for this wonderful video! :)

The little newbies at the end, ahhh, my heart.... So many memories ahead of them~

absolutely incredible

beautiful... simply beautiful... i will repeat the same comment i said in the "don't dance alone" video.... this could be an official ad for FF14

I've been playing FFXIV for five and a half years and this sums up everything I've come to love and adore about this game. The great friends, the adventures, the shenanigans. Thank you, Denmo, for the perfect encapsulation for all the reasons I haven't stopped playing yet. 💖

Man oh man, three years have gone by since I've began playing XIV on a whim. This video of amongst others were some of the big catalysts for me to get out there and socialise with people, chasing to make memories of my own. And I did! I joined an FC of wonderful people who welcomed me with open arms and a warmth that was much appreciated during those days of the pandemic. They pushed me to try all sorts of content I wouldn't have dipped my toes into and also just made our own sort of dumb fun along the way. The game and it's world back then was magical beyond anything else. I am no longer in that FC and I havent talked to 99% of my former guildmates in at least a year and a half by now. As times change so do people, and some changes are harder to reconcile than others. These days I have my own FC, a group composed of just a handful of my close friends. We still have our own fun but often we just sit around and chat, none of us really big on doing difficult content unless its for glamour or a mount. And these days the game is less magical, a spark that was there from when I began having faded. Playing a game so much for so long will do that haha. But looking back at the screenshots I took, both those taken for vanity and those taken for to record moments, some of that magic comes back. Though in the past they may be each memory brings a warmth to my heart, tinged with the bitterness of separation some of they might be each moment I still hold dear. Even should I fall out of this game forever Ill always look back on it with the fondest of sighs.

This managed to capture how I've felt since my friends started playing in a way I don't think I ever could. I played for a very long time alone, and now I have friends to play with and idk, this just hit the tone so well.

2:03 This happened to me on my first attempt of this dungeon. I did the trust system and picked Alisaie. Alisaie proceeded to make that jump with a similar ability. Little did i know my her dash move was scripted. I fell right into the pit.

KZfaq may take away your motivation for creating this content, but it will never take away the love we all have for your work, every video is just pure gold

This is so incredibly HEARTWARMING. I love how you've made it feel really from different POVs and like we're all on a grand adventure together! You've captured the spirit of why I love this game and friends I've made here so much :D

probably the best content I've seen for ffxiv.

this is the feeling i want in game alot, and why i've been branching out talking with new people as best i can

I love how this is shot in such a way it looks like the adventurers are recording their journeys. Thank you to all who came together to make this, I'm feeling warm and fuzzy af and even more thanks for the madlad who put this all together, fantastic work as always.

I discovered this a year later but I am obsessed with it. It really invokes the most feels possible. I've watched it so many times since I found it yesterday.

You nailed the feeling of traveling through the fantastic world of FFXIV, superb video Denmo!

"Hey, that's me in the car..." - Everyone in September 2021

being shown this video on Shenpai's stream, and watching it ever since then, has given me the motivation to clear all the way from 2.0, to 6.0 (maintenance is currently up). thank you so much for this delightful masterpiece, to remind us all of the precious connections and memories that we've made thanks to this wonderful game!

Man, the feeling of this video doesn't get old even with repeated viewings. You're an editing maestro, Denmo. You really know how to showcase the greatest aspect of the game: the people playing it.

Ahhh few years have gone by, this is the clip that literally made me play ffxiv in the first place. Though things change and all that, i used to be in a FC and brought my friends along to start the game and we all have events and all, and even do roadtrips like these it was very fun until it didnt. FC got into a big drama, friends found other friends and im just playing solo most of the time now to the point i had to take a break for half a year just to not get depressed over a game experience. Even made me not play endwalker on release day and just didnt play for 7 months til i decided to get back and do the MSQ, after it's done im pretty much alone again and it's a very shitty feeling. Though watching this again just made me convince myself that instead of crying over what you don't have is to just appreciate on what you had, sounds cheesy but it helps me a lot for those who are by any chance experiencing the same thing, sorry for the text just kinda wanna rant a bit lol

Where is the possibility to like this twice, holy shit

Gave me tears

Not only does this give me such strong feelings of nostalgia, reminding me of so many happy memories and what love about the game, but makes me excited for the future, new friends and new adventures. This video represents the best if FF14 and it's wonderful community. It could easily be used to advertise and showcase this amazing game. Masterful work as always. Thank you for making me smile.

i found this from rich's stream! Your work is epic!

I love the cuts of ppl taking selfies and such. So cute 😍

And this is why I play Final Fantasy XIV. Now if only there were more housing plots...

This was absolutely heartwarming and captures the purest moments a player can have in FFXIV. Punched me right in the feels. qwq You did such an amazing job as always!

Why is this making me cry instead of smiling? Good video with tons of feels behind it and the tune really fits well...

I hope this video sees a nice influx of new viewers as the FFXV event rolls through this month. Can't wait to finally get my own Regalia and start a Road Trip of my own.

This made me feel feelings I couldn't recognize. But one thing's for certain... and thats that I love this.

Denmo, thank you for making this. Your videos was how I got my mom interested in ffxiv and since her passing in January I have come to appreciate ffxiv more, so seeing this made me think of her and remember when I showed her your dancing video for ARR. Thank you for still making videos and bringing amazing feelings and laughs to her and my life.

I love the shot in the Sophia trial where the camera goes with everyone and then in the septhirot trial they are up in the air. It's the little details in this that makes its so spectacular. Each "scene" has something fun going on in it

2:06 laughing at the squad for being put in babyjail and instantly getting into an argument is such a nice choreography, just feels real idk

Square should seriously hire you to do their commercials and promotional videos because this perfectly captures the essence of FFXIV.

bro this was amazing! Love the concept, love the editing, love the music choice! Just rewatched it 3x. This is what FF14 is all about

This still my favorite video of yours. Mr Face is incredible, but this one just bring me the feeling, and the feeling of nostalgia of a thing that I still experiencing, the editing and concept is just outstanding, fantastic masterpiece, Denmo and helpers.

Oh the feels ❤️ I love how in the span of a few minutes you perfectly represent the “road trip” I’ve been on since I started playing this game so many years ago. It feels like a chronological video of everyone’s journey. So many amazing details.. like how swimming and flying come later in the journey ☺️ thank you for another emotional piece!! ... also the Tonberry XD

This is a Masterpiece

You've done it again, your editing skills are only matched by the emotional engagement we experience as a viewer. Bravo.

I think the only thing that is as good as this video is...is the comments and peoples reaction to it. When you have played the same game for years, you build stories of people you met, places you have been. Reading the comments from people shareing those moments gives me the feels hardcore. So much love for the game, your vids and the people that make it a special place!

God damn, Denmo, you've really outdone yourself this time. Bravo.

You know it's good when it's got ODESZA

Denmo Mcstronghuge knocking it out of the park again with another video the highlights the nature of FFXIV: the shared adventure, the community, the friendship. Because this game is one of the few out there that I've ever found truly feels like it not only encourages but is built around a sense of camaraderie. And Denmo always seems to capture that with his work. Wonderfully done, as always, dude.

Man this made me think that I didnt really know what I had back when I played the game, absolutly captures the feeling of adventure and community, love it...thinking about resubbing..

literally traveled to another world on their road trip. best road trip ever.

When you like before it even starts :P Edit: my like was put in faith and I was given more than I could've hoped for

I just wanna say this is probably my favorite XIV video out there. I keep rewatching it every few days. Just amazing

The best part of this video is as I go through the MSQ I find more and more places from this video and it gives me the most wonderful feeling

I started playing around 2 months after Endwalker. I am so excited to experience Dawntrail with the rest of the community at the same time. You continue to show what this community is capable of.

Been watching this everyday before i start playing for the past 2 weeks, really gets me motivated for some reason. Awesome video!

'We didn't realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun.'

I cannot stop watching it, love the music love the video editing, love the crew

Just found this video 3 years after it's been uploaded. I'm gonna share to my friends who don't play ff14 when they ask me why I stick to this game

I don’t play anymore but I always look forward to your videos. The world of FFXIV brings back a ton of nostalgia for the locations as well as the people that inhabit them. I have so much appreciation for the scenery I’ll never would have experienced If it weren’t for FFXIV fmvs. Thank you for these!

Video didn't even have a single spoken word but I still teared up, I love this game, fucking incredible work Denmo

Everyones hit it on the nose, theres a real filmography to this that really sets it apart from many videos I've seen. Its amazing!

1:48 Great job getting void ark in the background

I don't know how to explain it with words....definitely speechless after watching this. Great vid Denmo!

This is probably the greatest ffxiv video ive ever seen. I can relate and vibes to every single moment in this vid with the adventures ive had just exploring the game.

Holy shit Denmo, I’ve been watching your videos since your HW “taste my sad” video and your music selection always puts the biggest smile on my face. I’ve been a huge fan of ODESZA since I discovered them back in 2014. The moment I heard the keys jingling and the door unlocking, I knew you picked Late Night, holy shit. This is incredible Denmo! Thanks for the big smile plastered on my face while watching this! Cheers!

Holy shit. This is incredible. SE should be paying you for this! Its like a professional ad for the game!

i know this is a year old but... this is why i love video editing

this is literally just what we all want, just hanging out with our mates exploring the final fantasy world and making memories doing it, THAT is what adventuring is.

I only started this game this last September, and I dont know how you did it, but you made me feel a sense of nostalgia, as if this game has been with me my entire life. Thank you. You are truly an inspiration.

I still cry every time I watch this. It's beautiful.

This is so cute and heartwarming. Idk how to describe it but every single player shown felt so individualistic, each appearance and movement were unique to that person. And of course all coming together in a shared experience, whether it was running dungeons or having a community parade. Like there's a great sense of feeling that behind every unique, onscreen WoL there's also the unique human being and we're connecting with each other through this game. The mock handheld cam PoV really pulled that all together. This sounds cheesy as hell but yeah thanks for sharing this Denmo.

I've watched quite a bit of your stuff, from the past, I'm a little late here. I've never been really able to express or put it into words before so here it goes. wanted to let you know, your videos have a way of giving me this sense of wandering thoughts. I felt these pangs in my heart from your videos like Frosted ruins, Keep Dancing, Eorzea (Heavensward), to FFXIV Time Lapse Compilation. It reminds me of the times of walking around I never really had many people to play with I've never been good with communication but when I used to walk before my injury that made it hard for me to walk for very long, I used to listen to music when I see trees rustling and cars passing by I felt a sense of calm. I havent been able to go out and feel that in such a long time, and seeing this it brought back those feelings of where I truly felt a wave of peace wash over me. I've played this game for years and always enjoying the sceneries, so seeing this just makes me appreciate my moments here. Thank you so much for making this, and allowing me to find that peace I've been searching for, for such a long time. I'll likely be coming back to this time and time again always just appreciating every moment in this piece. I wish you a wonderful day. I hope you are safe and happy wherever you are, take care lad.

Really incredible work as usual Denmo. Your clever use of angles and varying resolutions really made this feel like a home movie.

Just awesome ! This is so good to see something like that ! The shake effect adds the little extra that makes me love this video.

This is so Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ This is why I love FFXIV

Bro, I'm tearing the f up. This is hitting so close to home. I love XIV so much and I love your videos too. Keep on ding the good fight!

Thank you very much for having me take part in this ^^ It was my first time for me! The end result was so much fun to see how everything came together!

In tears again, gdi Denmo. This was absolutely wonderful! Amazing footage taken by incredible people, and just perfect editing as always. Well done!

Thank you so much for this Denmo. It’s the content like this that you make that touches my heart and brings back all the wonderful memories that I have made with the wonderful people I have traveled with since the ARR days. Seeing all the scene changes brought a tear to my eye as it reminded me of all the grand adventures I have had with them and many new people that continue to join us along the way. Please don’t stop. ❤️

Beautiful 😻 never stop denmo! The feels are reals ❤️❤️❤️

Your edits are always so amazing. Truly Inspiring

This is honestly making me cry, an adventure vlog from start to now. These always manage to make me feel like im missing out on something and is just the best type of vids to make you remember all the good parts of life.

This video was so great, it made me feel nostalgic and overwhelming feelings of joy and happiness even though I still currently play. This video was so good that I was so sad it had to end, please keep making videos like this!

We all say "i want to explore the world around me". Yet we use flying mounts the moment we ge tthe opportunity to use them, and never actually get to exploring the world as we all say. This video presents what exploring a world should be. Thank you.

THE FEELS! Man, this is some whole new level of content and editing! Loved every second of it!

I cant even begin to think how many hours you put into this. Easily the best FFXIV video i have ever seen

i love how happy this is, and it's really really just a joy to watch. thank you!

I'm seriously in tears by the end of this video. Just makes me remember all the moments I've had with my friends late at night laughing and goofing off. Or running the MSQ all together to experience the story and freaking out at all the twist and turns. Love this video so much and the home style footage you captured. Amazing work!!!!

Just amazing work thats gone into this video, I love it! The music, the way it was shot and the shaders for each one. Also that gnb yeeting himself off the walkway is hilarious.

Such a beautifully crafted video that puts tears to my eyes ;w; You were able to create what many of us feel from the friends we've made in this game. I cannot thank you enough for how a lot of your videos resonate with me. So thank you!

Denmo!! Your stuff is always amazing. This definitely showcases how many of us feel when we play the game. The adventures we go on and the people we meet along the way. Thank you once again for the trips you take us on and the great music!

A bit hard to put into words what this video does. It's the best representation of one of the best aspects of XIV - playing with friends. Really heartwarming video, and excellently made too (really creative use of first-person)! I loved very second of it.

Every time I see one of your videos, it reminds me of how much I love FFXIV, and how much I appreciate everyone I've meet in the game. Thank you for all of your hard work. It definitely shows, and this video was incredibly heartwarming.

Thanks for all the work you put in, Denmo! This is such a love letter to the friendships we all make in this game.

Thank you for your hard work with all of your videos, they're putting always a smile on my face and for a short time i can always forget about everything bad that is just happening, really thank you so much

tHIS LOOKS like it was recorded on a phone and it just gives it immaculate vibes

This is so... beautiful. Amazing. A literal work of art. It felt like I just experienced the adventure they went through. The final notes especially had me on edge. The calmness of everything, the final photo... There’s this sense of fullness I simply can’t explain. Hell, I’m not even that deep into the game and I love this so much!
