4:22 "I gotta learn that." *Proceeds to learn it instantly*

This fight is based on a FF7 boss so the fact that you pick out that link between songs is amazing. It's so subtle 👍

I always have the highest respect for people who can listen to music and immediately play. Keep up the great work!

That's an amazing ear and depth of knowledge to instantly recognize the FFVII reference. The fight this is for is FFXIV's version of the original FFVII superboss, so it's 100% intentional as a reference for people familiar with the original.

The Black Wolf Strikes Again ❤️🙏🏾

This song fits so perfectly, because the fight itself ingame is so surreal. Most music works even better with context in FF14

Yeah Emerald Weapon goes HARD. I remember hearing it for the first time and going "EXCUSE ME???" do you know how IMPOSSIBLE it is to pay attention to a fight you're unfamiliar with because you're jamming out too hard??? Another good one would 100% be Ruby Weapon - it's another song in the game remixed, but.... well, you'll enjoy it a lot I reckon haha.

He did it! When I heard this song in game, I was like, holy shit, I hope people try to recreate this!

The best part of this track is that the fight starts with the heart of sabik track, then part 2 begins with that opening guitar with emerald weapons full form revealed. It's such a raw moment of badass

You are extremely talented. It is really fun to see your videos.

Seeing how fast you pick these up is absolutely incredible. This song is one of my favorites in this end of the genres 14 touches and I'm so glad it got requested.

EWEX was legit the first most difficult trial I ever attempted with my friends. We took the entire day to clear it. And we managed to clear it before new years. This song is officially stuck in my head.

Dude you pick this shit up so fast, it's amazing. Yeah, this was FF7 - I remember some Knights of the Round material getting me through this fight

Such a sick track, honestly would to hear a full cover!

It's so great to watch you enjoy these awesome tracks, and then shred so hard over the top of it. Fantastic guitarist, love your vids!

Always coming in hard with those quick tone pickups. Love listening to your FFXIV coverage

My favorite 💚 bluesy, metal, synth, orchestral, reverb, it's everything.

Thanks for reminding me how amazing the Emerald phase 2 theme omg... always love coming back to your videos. Love your enthusiasm and how easily you just pick the melodies up and add your take

FFXIV has such amazing soundtrack, it’s just ridiculous how good it is. If I could request a a reaction to a song, I truly believe that you and all your fans would enjoy listening to a song from an obscure anime called ‘The legend of Black heaven” known as kacho oji. The name of the song is “Let me go, Let you go” it’s just one of the most amazing song, the guitar riff and just everything about is fantastic. It’s sad that many people haven’t had the chance to experience the soundtrack.

Dude......... I've got to tell you. I got SUPER sick with covid recently and was stuck in bed for about 3 weeks. I found your channel while i was sick and i literally did nothing but watch your content the whole time. As an avid FFXIV player, and guitarist/brass player of 20 years I have so much respect for what you are doing here. Honestly covid broke me down physically and mentally and all of your music was such a tremendous help while i was laying there thinking i was dying. It got me through it much easier. I really appreciate your talent please keep up the good work. I have my whole discord community just sitting around jaming to your covers all day now. It's a good vibe man. I wish you a massive growth on youtube and major success in your future.

Yeah, I have this one playing all the time in my in-game house. So badass!

the fact he can just play a riff by ear is so jar dropping

I was so looking forward to this one

Man I have wanted you too witness the black wolf stalks again, absolute banger of a theme

Killing it, Jack. Loving the content. FF14 doesn't get the credit for the amount of absolute bops on the ost. Limitless Blue being a personal favourite.

Jack, do that fight sometime. the only that goes harder than the friggin track is the fight itself. those bosses do NOT fuck around in ff14.

Soooooo goooooood. I love this track! I could see this being an awesome one to cover as well!

It’s so fun to watch you really enjoy these songs! And the way you picked out the ff7 reference like immediately is legitimately Insane, it’s a testament to your skill and game music knowledge. Keep rockin! On a slightly different note, the theme for the current final savage boss, Hic Svnt Leones, might also be up your alley if you haven’t already checked it out. It’s ffxiv metal mixed with castlevania vibes.

Was waiting for this. Did not dissapoint! :D

Would be cool to see you react to Pandaemonium 4’s theme ‘Hic Svt Leones’

I'm addicted to these videos.

Great work for first time hearing it!

God, I know the song now, but I had to go find "Under the Rotting Pizza" just to hear what you were meaning; underneath the pizza song caught me so off guard and that was knowing there was a song like that for being under the crust in midgar. haha

This was the boss me and my static did first. The music made wiping over and over bearable.

Easily one of my favourite themes in the game and I can definitely see why a guitarist would love this one, the guitar takes the spotlight on this one and goes hard

Emerald so good. And your pitch and intonation is great.yhis is my game!!

I am absolutely obsessed with this song lately.

The bit he liked so much, not too strange he likes it. It's very inspired by Bach. Toccata and Fugue in D minor.

I'm still waiting for your full covers man! Literally checking up on this channel every now and then until it comes out xD

Such a menacing name for the song too given what you're up against in the game: "The Black Wolf Stalks Again"

Every single riff a monumental banger.

hell yea, this track is badass

All the Weapon themes go hard as hell!

This one is probably my favorite. Next to the Endwalker mid dungeon boss theme. Idk tho I’m a sucker for sweet riffs

HELL YES! This is my favourite song in the entire game.

OHHHH MY GOD ♥️

EMERALD WEAPON!!!!! Fuck yeah!! 🤘😎

Yes finally, big ups my man!

your ability to pick up the notes and play so quickly is always so incredibly impressive.

I was already impressed, then i saw the amon amarth banner in the background and knew you were an instant subscribe

The whole story around the weapon fights also felt kinda FF7 ish. Very doom and gloom, sad and beautiful at the same time. Possibly my favorite optional content in the game. With the ivalice raids (and music!) raids as a strong second. Absolutely love this song and is my favorite boss theme in the game. I like what you said about underneath the pizza. Never thought about it but I get what you mean! Cheers man, great video. Loved seeing you enjoy the music.

Glad to see this one. This particular theme is one of my favorites in ShB - kind of underappreciated, IMO.

I struggled so much with this fight mechanically that I didn't even pay attention to the music, can't believe I missed out on something so good ♡

Instant classic!

!!!! IT HAPPENED!!! Edit: okay now that I've watched the video I'm just in awe of how fast he picked it up and also super happy he loved the song

Another great one from ff14 is Wrath of the Harrier from Dalriada final boss

This slaps

Awesome :)

omg my favourite one yet😠🔥

still got tears in the eyes remembering the questline around it

WOOOOOOOOO

theblackwolf theblackwolf theblackwolf such deva station

Aw yeaaa

Such a baller track 🙌🏿

This song has everything. Old Doom vibes and the melody almost sounds like Mission Impossible 😊

Emerald Weapon = Best Song!

awesome!

you deserve so many more views

He should check literally any iteration of battle on the big bridge but especially the ffxiv version arguably the best ff song

Fire! :)

In soken we trust

wtf this was awesome !

The track is called "The Black Wolf Stalks Again."

That music got me almost killed.

Maaaaaaaaaaan, you realy need to cover it =)

Basically every gunblader has this as their theme, fighting soldier music.

It makes sense that it has FF seven vibes, because the weapons were originally from Final Fantasy 7

Bury the Light from DMC 5?

pog

Oh fuck yes

This might sound ridiculous but I feel like I've learnt some extra lore depth to the fight just hearing you analysis the music

2:15 totally remind me of the Mission Impossible theme lol

You should check out the Diablo Armament Theme.

Most replay feature is goated, well done youtube.

i wish you could get this song on a scroll to play in your house

K this the 3rd time I’m here for a ffxiv vid. At this point I’m an ass if I don’t sub so here ya go

Anyone knows if this is the same song as 'Black Wolf Stalks Again' or is it different?

To the edge from final fantasy 14 next you'll love that one too

can you cover this theme as your own version ? and please can you cover the ff14 OST "The Wanderer's Palace (Hard Mode)" ??

Haha.. I literally have that same GoT Banner on my wall.

🙏🔥Knew you'd like this one; there are something like 200 battle themes alone in XIV. Have fun

the first riff could be straight out of quake 2 .

Soken is a god among men

The fight is trash but my god this song slaps, you did great dude!

This slaps
