lol, indeed

Now we have Strangers of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin, where everyone played Nioh.

Yep ;)

Actually a dark souls 3 gameplay would have elevate this fight by order of magnitude This fight feels too stiff with ff15 control scheme

I have never played dark souls but this is exactly what I thought during this boss fight😭

What a Chad

Gladio: Learns to overcome his fear of being unworthy to be Noctis' shield.

Gladiolus just got big sword

Gladiolus just got big sword

Yeah, but that scar, though. Ooooooh! Mystery!

yea.... which just makes it feel like they came up with this story out nowhere....and obviously... that's what they did

RINKU was it not explained in the dlc?

Ninty Julius not really, it seems like they planned it cuz he randomly got a scar and so they showed how he got it

It was less how he got the scar and the sword and more why he left the party the way he did. The scar was to show something went down during his absence.

😆

I had a comment but then was like "nah, I'll leave things cleanish"

Gladio just needs to bow to the king. No Kneel really.

Darkbeast42 he stands with the king.. he doesnt kneel

He serves as the king’s shield. His job is to stand by Noct and protect him with his life

@Nicholas Brown Yeah, Gilgamesh is the only final fantasy that appears as the same man, but in different forms. (Sometimes he's accompanied by his dog Enkidu).

@@presidentdeadpool3198 yeah didnt the void like do something to him so that he can appear in multiple worlds?

It's true. 🤭

But is true. 🤷‍♂️ This is not the Gilgamesh I've met in FFV, FFXII, FFXIII and Type-0.

which sounds incredibly lame by the way

Because that would be interesting and fun, FFXV isn't interested in any of that.

@@GiantButterKnife: Oh no it's a different take on traditional final fantasy how could they!

@Shan Kanis: So you'd rather have the same old Gilgamesh and have him grow stale and boring instead of having them try something new every once in a while to keep things interesting. Plus would the usual Gilgamesh fit in this world, no it wouldn't so it's either keep the old fans happy and throw out the entire theme of the dlc or try something new and see what happens while keep in line with the rest of the dlc.

different character than the crazy guy who travels through worlds (FF worlds) to find swords sad how they just made him a basic character here instead of the dimension-travelling madman

@@dhufflepuff348 their not trying something new, their trying something easy bc they didn't had enough time the game is massive, and that results of lots of unpolished parts, its fucking boring, a fight in dark souls against some hollows gets more interesting tbh, also im guessing the team behind this ff is braindead, seems to be made by ppl with money and no brains

He was somnus childhood friend

The first sword he uses looks like the blade of the mystic too at least to me ik this is an old comment lol but still

Where did you get this info? I didnt find anywhere ardyn saying this or mentioning.

Right when the beat switched!

Sagman Twelve I like to think that he is also a cousin/brother of the first king of lucis. It helps me justify his powers and powerful ability to use a magic arm and sword

So Cor cut his arm off and lost and then Greg claimed his blade?

Everybody knows that. That doesn't make it any less awful. Thanks for point out the obvious.

I like this Gilgamesh more. He is very mysterious and godly looking. I like to think this is Gilgamesh in his final form after years to traveling through dimensions and settled down in Lucis years ago and became friends with the first King and learned how to be like this instead of his goofy self.

Sagman Twelve I like this Gilgamesh a lot

Same. The concept of him being a one-armed swordman alone is neat. I do think they missed out on an opportunity to have him grow four more arms, but still, this is not a bad Gilgamesh, simply a different one.

I would have preferred at the end, as acknowledging Gladiolus's might, he summons his arms and blades. But I like his design here, because it is different and fitting for where it takes place. I'll always like classic Gilgamesh over this one, but he's good too.

Joel The Pizza Wizard I liked this one, too. Not for the physical look of him, but for the attitude. I've had enough of silly Gilgamesh. A serious, dignified one is a nice change of pace. I agree that he should have grown the other 6/7 arms. Maybe as his HP dropped, he'd sprout more?

Arisen Hemloc still, this guy is tough! Dodging was key in this fight

Joel The Pizza Wizard Yeah I thought it was cool, especially when you know him down and he brandishes his lost Arm, then weilds TWO Bigass Genji Blades at the same time! It thought it was a badass battle. THIS WALL OF TEXT IS NOT DIRECTED TOWARDS TRUE FANS OF FINAL FANTASY. TRUE FANS, LEAVE THIS COMMENT SECTION, IT IS TOXIC!!! I love Final Fantasy and have played multiple iterations of the franchise. I love Final Fantasy XV and I may be one of the only players of it to appreciate it for what it is, and I won't let its flaws get it my way! Its an Open World Final Fantasy! What more do you people want? Go whine to Square if you want to, but they only listen to the REAL Fans, the Fans who appreciate their hard work, their determination to create a beautiful work of art such as this! And you Whiners wish to soil their pride and joy with your bickering and self-sabotage? Go back to your Reddit and Facebook and Twitter, and whine about how "Final Fantasy XV is broken", "Final Fantasy XV is worse than Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy XIV put together!" Do you idiots know how hard it is to create amazing stuff like this Game you bought with your money to ENJOY? You bought the game, you enjoy it! If you aren't enjoying what you buy, then do literally anything else you can find joy in! You're going to accomplish nothing by being angry at the game and posting an angry Column of Text Online for no one to see or care about. And you may be thinking you've nailed me down with your "Oh, but didn't you just do that?" Yes, I did. But you saw it. You cared. Even if you don't think you did, no matter how many times you tell yourself you don't care and think "Man, I dressed that motherfucker down", you know you care. You'll remember this Wall of Text, and you'll take something from this. You'll carry that memory of that one time a faceless person on the Internet really handed it to your whiny ass. And that's what this was all about. Besides that rant (focused on the Whiny babies who haven't worked as hard as Square has in their entire life), I love Final Fantasy and this fight is amazing.

shadow hunter02 I believe this theme as well as NieR Automata's soundtrack are from the same composer

@King Crow Probably the only person who thinks so

@King Crow holy shit it took you 3 messages to try and get your point across and it's nothing but rabid hate for no reason lmao. You can also edit your posts to fix spelling mistakes.

"less than 25% game was complete" Interesting. Where did you get the numbers?

Correction: The nier franchise's themes sound like something out of this game. Lol... I have a chronological pet peeve...

For this it is called Battle on the big bridge

And the battle takes place on the bridge...

Well I believe most recurring characters are connected to the crystals that choose the heroes. Maybe some like cid are guides to the characters own destinies or some shit.

So leviathan and gilgamesh aren"t demons ?

Or alien

gilgamesh is first king shield bro

quite ironic isn’t it

this is final fantasy, not fate but then again, in both cases Gil is a weapon hoarding, cocky bastard

Naw that's ardyn in this game

Noctis is actually similar to fates gilgamesh lol

**wheeze**

In ffxv comrades there is Gilgamesh as a boss battle and it is way cooler to fight him there He has more moves And there are different weapons on the ground where he summons them and does his attacks

Isn't every Gilgamesh in the series?

@@thesupershinymegagengar2034 Not really. You see Gilgamesh in a FF game, it's pretty much a given that it's the guy from FF5.

Not even Yojimbo. They both have distinct appearances and skills and this guy has none of that.

Yojimbo means body gaurd, which would be better, seeing as how Gladio acts as a body guard to Noctis

Oh. I though it was a Jimmy Neutron reference.

Jordan Yruegas omfg I died of laughter hahahahaha you made my day

The funny thing is at the time of making my first comment I had played 120 hours of FFXV in the span of a month during November and December of 2017. Completely forgot what a Yojimbo was.

He is a different person actually but still, I gotta admit I love your idea and I love this version of gilgamesh

@@juliansenni6279Hmm, you sound sure he is different person. Is that somewhere stated? I am not looking for some heated argument, lol, just curious. I do not know whole lots of things about FF games. Reason I believe he is the same is more about FF patern I see through games. Cid, Biggs, Wedge and the summons through the games are different personages having the same name. But Gilgamesh, he had memories of his original world. Yes, not in XV, but in other games he had. So, following that patern, I assume that is the very same Gilgamesh, who is milenia or two older, and much more mature as person. But of course, I have no hard proves or official SE statements, is rather my head canon. Edit: I am glad you like my idea :D.

I would say that the old Gil isn't even necessarily "better", just different. Our familiar Gil is bombastic and hammy in a gloriously juicy way. This Gil is more subdued and collected, a more serious (and menacing) blademaster. Overall, I feel New Gil is a better fit for the FFXV world than Old Gil. But yeah, oh boy, I'm getting some serious Dark Souls vibes from him and the combat.

david pitre if you want souls styled shit go play their games.

Spaghooti It does look like a souls/borne boss. And since when did comparing a boss to another games' boss become so hostile? lol.

I honestly dont see why people get hostile but its the internet

Random TeaGuy agreed

greysen212 Odin is apparently dead in this universe

THEORRY TIMEEEEE ODIN IS USING GILGAMESH AS HIS NAME TO HIDE (I know bad theory and I don't believe it myself)

In this universe many 'Gods' don't exist. There are only six and unless Square introduce them in the game later on as DLCs or updates (highly unlikely) the number won't be affected.

CakeIsTasty- yy that's actually believable

BBL81 what are you talking about? Odin isn't even in the game..

Yeah, wish there were more summons, but it’s clear that they wanted you to be able to actually take down enemies on your own instead of abusing summons like in previous games. Like what’s the point of all the buildup to a fight if I can just summon a tonberry to kill anything in my way?

Probably. And this isn't even the first time they've done a replacement Greg either. Eleven had its own unique Gilgamesh too.

Melfice Cyrum You think Gilgamesh perfectly fits the other games? He's supposed to be a total oddjob.

He fits perfectly in FF14, 13-2, 5 and 9 who btw was a completely different person as well.

Melfice Cyrum Then don't put in fucking gilgamesh or anyone stealing his name.

They could just cut him off from the story to make it more fitting. Like ffxii, he came from nowhere

i think kefka was more deadpoolish i dont even remember any time except World of FF where he was even slightly deadpoolish

That reminds me of general grievous lol.

One-armed Dr. Doom.

Yes both are different versions of the character and each have their own flaws

Well in 15 everyone dies. Not much fun (happily ever after in the afterlife yes, real world no). On the top of my head the happiest one for both the general public and the PCs is either 9 or 1. The only reason why FF is not adult is because it doesn't have highly detailed gruesome deaths.

Isaac Matthews everybody in 15 does not die the fuck did you get that conclusion from?

The thing is this gilgamesh isn't the one were use to it was the guard of the first king and has a place in the lore of 15

I was hoping through that dlc that the real Gilgamesh would appear out of no where and challenge you to a fight

why is this the only fate reference I am seeing in the comment section?

Ignis, parallel to the episode 9, and Prompto to the episode 12, if I'm not wrong (and I think Comrades happens between 13 and 14)

Well,its because FF XV tone seem to be a bit serious(in Gladio dlc) so I guess they can't use our favourite dimension leaping goofy samurai.

Tweetug 36 but they did :( should've just used some other character then and not call him gilgamesh

I kind of think this Gilgamesh it's one down the line...but very far indeed, like really old, ruthless, cynic...and not so funny as in previous games. It could be the Gilgamesh we can find at the end of his travels, as if FFXV is the last universe he will travel to.

What a way to end. After hopping down the hole through various side stories and making a name for himself in Dissidia, Gilgamesh ends his tenure and aquisition of 5 of 6 arms in a world that sees the end of a royal line.

Gilgamesh before FF15 = Sonic The Hedgehog, goofy, confident and fun! Gilgamesh in FF15 = Shadow the Hedgehog, edgy just tryhard edgy

You know that saberlasers make slices without blood? Its because it cautalizes wounds from the heat. A flaming katana should make the same effect.

Git gud. There's healing items all over the damn place in there

Keep your Phoenix downs I've noticed that the bosses before him are much easier cuz they have a pattern old Gil here does not at times

The ffxii Gilgamesh theme is even more epic

I love the game myself but most people are angry because they had to pay for parts of the story

He's not the same Gilgamesh. In the final fantasy 15 universe Gilgamesh never caught Bartz and is only part of the 15 universe and was a shield to the first king of lucis

CakeIsTasty- yy I'm pretty sure he's the same old Gilgamesh

Uhhh, no. Same Gilgamesh.

hotrodfirebird is this the same Gilgamesh from 8?

It's already been confirmed long ago that this is ffxv's own version of Gilgamesh, not the same one from the previous games

HAHAHAHA! THIS IS SO TRUE!

Definitely true lol

You were saying?

After beating the DLC, you unlock the sword and you can equip it for Gladio.

We actually see him use it to finish against one of the possessed kings when Noctis and the gang go up against Ardyn.

Episode gladiolus final boss

If you're coming to a ff game expecting a gilgamesh that inst comic relief, you are coming to the wrong place

KazumaMikura *battle on the big bridge*.... there are many different versions so remember to put XV

KazumaMikura Battle on the big bridge the bad version

@@dolphinboi-playmonsterranc9668 Nice joke kid

I did. It was really suprising.

@@loerzo8710 What you mean?

Yes.

I know im surprised there hasn't been a main game about him or a spinoff hell they could have made him playable here
