Why did you give Troia's music a 4 and not mention anything about it? And why start with the second boss. Structure feels very disjointed

at first with the carriage ride I just thought overall the Before was just brighter with the grass sorta flickering, while the After was a bit more color. When it started going around the City State, it was far clearer on the graphical change. When they said there was a blue filter, I can see it now, and I can see how it kinda washed out the colors.

to me, the update feels unnoticeable until side-by-side comparisons like this are made, which i actually prefer and appreciate! i was worried it would feel like i'm playing a different FF game, but so far they've preserved the style and feel without any whiplash which is awesome. can't wait for them to finish!

I don't think they did. I think the textures on them now are just not as noticeable at 1080p, or at least because of youtube compression. At 4k the fur and details are all there.

I was interested to see what you would say... by your own indicated metric, Dead ends is the best dungeon in endwalker, and smileton is easily one of the worst. Smileton is brainless, the music is kinda bad for the stuff Soken is known for, there are no engaging boss mechanincs, and its visually mediocre comparatively (like the red moon, or the crazy backdrop and designs in Troia). By your own logic, even vanaspati or Ktisis should be higher than Smileton because of their incredible music and story beats, plus the mouth boss, snake thing, etc. Dead ends is the best because each boss has its own punishing but fair set of mechanics that require thought and foreplanning. The death mechanic of the first boss was awesome paired with the following AoEs, and the superb AoE dodge in the second one designed to trip up even the most savvy raiders, plus the prepositioning required for movement in the third. It was a nice changeup for a tank main that falls asleep standing in one spot, trying to decide if its even worth moving out of the way of the next AoE or not. Story significance for Dead ends is huge, and the music is probably the best in endwalker leading up to the best trial the game has had in a while. I mean, I find most dungeons a snooze-fest anyway, but dead ends is the first one Ive died in due to my own mistakes since Stormblood, and that includes the Dawntrail dungeons. They really need more dungeons like the Dead Ends, otherwise they all begin to feel like the same cookie-cutter crap we have now.

This was a fun video. Please make one for the other expansions, or just a big ranking of all the dungeons! I love the scoring method, although you could combine the boss scores into a single score to help make the numbers less “low” imo. Aetherfont feels more like a 7.5 or 8 rather than a 6.6.

I'd not go as far as saying terrible, but I totally agree that none of the Endwalker dungeons feel standout. Stormblood & Shadowbringers is my favourite era for dungeons. There are so many I don't get bored of, whilst in EW I found most got tedious quite quickly.

I never really liked dead ends myself, it just felt like amaurot 2.0 with “everything was awful, let me show you how”, though even then amaurot did it better imo. Selch was there since coming to the first and popped up on occasion and he had a goal at the end of the day compared to meteion showing up late game, and her motivations being basically “why bother living or being happy?”

I can't agree, because the final boss of Amaurot is so trash it brings the whole dungeon down singlehandedly.
@boredbales12345
@boredbales12345 2 ай бұрын
Definitely cant agree. Amaurot was kinda trash, with the same cookie cutter dungeon design and boss design that as plagued the game since stormblood. Dead Ends was fantastic, because the bosses were actually engaging, and I have watched so many people die because they expected another boring ass dungeon, and instead got something that was a step up. You actually had to have a pulse to beat it. Not one of those bosses would let you win if you werent paying attention to the mechanics. Amarout also had the unfortunate adds the boss for the second boss, and a standard "Oh-noes, the arena shrinks" boss with no real mechanics. The only boss worthwhile was the first one, and even that one wasnt impressive. At least the final area of Amaurot was visually stunning, if you were awake enough to enjoy it. *Spoilers Ahead* Also, comparing Emet and Meteion is like comparing an apple to an orange and saying the apple is better because you dont have to peel it. Emet was front and center for the whole expansion. That was the point. The end of shadowbringers wouldnt have been as good if he wasnt there for the whole thing. Meteion was an issue that only 5 people initially knew about, but 3 had their memories wiped and one returned to the future. It was meant to be a secret gamble between Venat and Hermes. By wiping Hermes, Hades, and Hylodaeus memories, and your character returning to the future, Meteion/Hermes was able to force the ancients to summon Zodiark, and force Venat to become an outcast to her own people and become the summoned Hydalyn. This way, Venat could make sure events played out the way you told her they would when she was asking questions. Then, Fandaniel recovered his wiped memories when he was reborn in the Allagan Empire and retook his position as an Ascian and Emet gave him back his memories. It was a well thought out, well applied story that is so deep, Im sure people are still unpacking all the implications. Sure, on the surface Meteion seems like a boring villain, but if you peel back the outer layer of the orange and think about the story and the stuff that happened, you will realize that Meteion/Hermes/Fandaniel combo are better villians than Emet. IMO
