Reminder to my lore nerds, this entire series is designed not to spoil things for people playing through the game. If there’s a fact that we learn later - I will include it when we learn it. Want to learn more, these videos will help: If you're interested in learning more might I suggest: FFXIV Pre-History Lore - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaQ__5ZBwBc Astral vs Umbral - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThahHzMScl4

Posting a video while we suffer from Maintenance... clever Jesse, very clever.
-
Jesse this has got to be the cleanest footage of 1.0 we've ever seen.
-
1.0 ending with the scene of Bahamut just obliterating everything is possibly the strongest game endings of all time "Oh btw you failed" servers shut down. I remember watching videos of people gathered around watching Dalamud descend in real time, pretty chilling
-
Just dropping Answers in there like that is brave. Straight to demonetization, do not pass Go. But it deserves to be here, and for that, respect.
-
My own memories aren't as clean as that 1.0 footage.
-
iam a 1.0 player and i remember the last days of the game as the red moon got bigger and bigger in the sky and you could hear hydaelyns song echo throughout the world then the epic moment when the servers went offline and the cutscene played was glorious it had me in tears and thinking back to those days also brings tears to me eyes
-
Everything I hear about the gameplay of 1.0 makes me glad I never had to suffer through it, but anytime I hear about the story and how it leads into ARR, I start to wish I was there to experience it.
-
"Thou must live, die, and know" ALWAYS makes me well up
-
That 1.0 and 2.0 cutscenes make so much more sense now and hit way harder, damn
-
13:10 "Ardbert Derpland" What a name.
-
My favorite thing about actually being there during the end of 1.X was during the final couple of weeks during the Fall of Dalamud. They basically let the reins loose on the GMs and they would go to various aetherytes as Garlean legates, talk smack to players then spawn hordes of troops.
-
Thancred praying at one of the sigils that, now finding out Loisoix made, hits so much different in the ARR cinematic, sheeeesh.
-
Does Jesse secretly have a personal 1.0 remastered server hiding somewhere with all that quality lore footage.
-
spoilers for the video I never even realized that I didn't actually know why the armies were fighting at Carteneau. And Gaius helping stop Nael, what a twist! It's really cool to finally see all these scraps of the 1.0 story brought together after only getting parts of the picture for years.
-
Man Gaius even in 1.0 was a secret hero in waiting. So true to his character to "unite" the world for the better in the way he believed. Rad
-
I will never be able to watch that cinematic without crying ugly tears, while also singing along to "answer"
-
the battle of carteneau will always make me tear up. no matter how many times i've seen it, there's so much emotion in those scenes and the music and now after we wrapped up this insane storyline, it makes it even better. thank you for including the entire cutscene! my little lala lady is a proud carteneau survivor and i can't wait for the adventures that await her next!
-
Everytime I see that Bahamut scene... goosebumps. Truly incredible. I love this series and I can't wait till you get to Heavensward.
-
Funny detail that was probably cut for time reasons is that 1.0 players who rested at, I think it was inns? They could actually be shown a special cutscene that foreshadowed the calamity! And iirc a hauntingly distorted version of Answers, which is the song that plays during that final 1.0 cutscene, would play throughout most of the world as the plot got super close to the calamity and the game to shutting down in transition to 2.0. A version that is very like 1.0's distorted Answers is still played every year during the annual Rising event in certain locations in the three starting cities.
