Wow the beginning of it is the FF14 Garuda theme

[@silentking9560]

Soken just couldn't help himself lol

[@0g00n8]

We all know who did this and it's so obvious

[@1jidion]

theres hints of ffxiv titan in the xvi version too

[@saesang352]

Soken was probably doing both at the same time. FF16 took like 7 years to make

[@leonides1527]

Soken: I had to ask soken from 14 if I could use some parts of his garuda theme and he was so nice to allow it ^^

[@FiendMatadorSlayerOfNoobs]

Not gonna lie, I felt legit bad for Gerulf when he got unceremoniously game over'd by an axe to the face. The man refused to leave his superior behind when he and the others could have made a run for it. Servants of Barnabas or not, he and the rest of Benedikta's followers deserve respect for their loyalty.

[@ZonaiHero-ul5nm]

Honestly, he was kind of underrated there. But more than that I would like to see some kind of prequel with Benedikta where she meets up with Cid while working for Waloed.

[@leonides1527]

They just wanted to "axe" him a question

[@ZonaiHero-ul5nm]

@@leonides1527 Nice one.

[@Bahamut3525]

Also, Benedikta legitimately cared for Gerulf and the loyal followers of Garuda;

[@Xaiclun]

@@Bahamut3525 Except the one she stabbed for not being able to fulfill her orders

[@lacey2116]

If you listen carefully, the bells in the background at 1:24 are also Fallen Angel's motif from FF14

[@KHRules]

great catch.

[@Twocoolman115]

Once again, Soken with the small details that makes it all the more awesome!

[@netkitten]

she set the stage for how amazing eikons were. nina yndis did an amazing job voicing her! ❤

[@msolomon9499]

Man I loved Ifrit shooting fire with the clap of his hands to counter Garuda's winds. Kinda Disappointed they didn't let him keep it when we control him the other times.

[@dinorex3464]

Well, Garuda was the only Eikon using Wind, so it makes sense Ifrit used that move on her.

[@DodderingOldMan]

Love the editing you've done for this one. Basically an ecapsulation of Benedikta's story.

[@Ironsidesgamingtheuttphater]

Complete with a extremely intimate scene that was thankfully censored I hope

[@christopherbravo1813]

yes I'm sure you enjoyed it immensely

[@SirenaAnimates]

@@christopherbravo1813 this paired with the OP’s user is priceless lmao

[@AndyMacster]

I LOVE the reference to Garuda's FF14 theme. Soken doesn't miss a beat 💚

[@definitelynotblazecam5558]

This theme is so underrated. Those horns at 0:55 give me life.

[@Tigerbro6]

when the FF14 Garuda Leitmotif kicks in I lost my shit while playing this

[@Ironsidesgamingtheuttphater]

This bossfight is beautiful but it’s definitely one of those “the bosses when your parents walk in” boss fights

[@Snowstorm...]

I realized on my second playthrough that Garuda's thighs jiggle when you hit her legs and had to step out of the room for a second myself

[@Lucira]

@@Snowstorm...They do?!

[@lushdontu4015]

Why are you guys so dirty minded its so annoying

[@bogymanthedark]

​​@Snowstorm... on my next playthrough I took raging fists on that fight to pummel those thighs

so cheeky of soken to add in the FF14 Garuda theme at 00:15

[@kuronyra1709]

It's the opening guitar rift right isn't it?

[@Medinaxz]

@@kuronyra1709 It is, yes.

[@LizCant]

It’s noticeable in the middle as well

[@Vinex3431]

the og joins FF16

[@SusanSnapDragon]

Garuda’s design reminds me of harpy eagles, which seems fitting for multiple reasons.

[@espada9000]

I honestly thought this was Ifrit's theme. Good to know.

[@KainZC]

I love the idea of making eikon's theme music somewhat consistent in the soken universe

[@ShadowNinjaMaster93]

Man, FFXVI did Benedikta so dirty. Probably my single gripe with the game, other than the fact that there wasn't much of a party system.

[@BlackPaperMoon18]

She should join the party. Her acting was soooo good i couldnt believe. It Would be very nice to see her character development bcs she was linked with sid and Hugo. It could be So much more for her.

[@mark0183]

BeneTHICCta

[@DripLegacy]

Nahhhh 2:20 not on the beat drop😭🤣

[@Xaiclun]

I really wish this bad bitch would have been around for longer, sadly she was the first major boss...

[@aurifelix]

so so so good

[@dinorex3464]

Despite her rather short screentime, Benedikta was an amazing character.

[@dorugoramon0518]

Rules of Nature moment at 4:34

[@jqkm2420]

PC version can't come out soon enough.

[@duannekhristopermangampat9608]

Wrath of Garuda with Ferocious Winds

[@The_Champion_96]

Super vacuum production, i never see her like that i swear

[@frostrunner3130]

Who let them make these bangers insane

[@specialnewb9821]

Hear me out guys, I can fix her!

[@Snowstorm...]

Honestly had Ifrit not killed her I do think it was possible that Benedikta could've been an ally. On a less serious note, listen man if I was Clive it would've turned out different like I'm just sayin I would've helped her I swear you guys gotta believe me

[@CorelUser]

blud thinks he is Cid

[@darkwarrior5149]

Cid: I can fix her Barnabas: I can make her worse Hugo: Please mommy garuda notice me :( @@CorelUser

[@jordank4889]

Not to denigrate the rest of the track but the best part is the first 30 seconds

[@landis9767]

best character... why benna! 🥲

[@gabiz9215]

More like an oversexualised character from top to bottom even the fight with garuda makes you hitting on her butt

[@dinorex3464]

​@gabiz9215 She is not oversexualised at all. Her entire character revolves around the fact that she acts as a spy for Waloed and acts attractive because she is terrified of losing people and ending up alone again. She hates Cid despite him saving her because he left Waloed (since he found about Barnabas being in bed with Ultima) and felt it as a personal betrayal. It makes perfect sense for her to act as she does. And in the fight, you don't "hit her butt", Ifrit was just an animal out of control.

[@froschdico3767]

No shot the lyrics it’s just GARUDA

[@Teochewtuahang]

This is an insult to Buddhism

[@kaltadesmon]

Lol wut?

[@Teochewtuahang]

@@kaltadesmon Garuda is one of earliest students of Buddha. His godness is among the highest of all buddhist gods. And widely worship in Asia. He is also symbol of protection in many Asian country. He is also symbol of Thai army, Indonesian army en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garuda#:~:text=In%20Buddhism%2C%20the%20Garuda%20(Sanskrit,winged%2C%20having%20good%20wings%22.

[@dinorex3464]

​@Teochewtuahang More like an inspiration. Every single Eikon is based on a mythological figure. Leviathan, for example, is from Christianity, while Ifrit is meant to be an Arabic demon, iIrc. It's not an insult, it's just inspiration.

[@Astreon123]

Wrong go cry about your nonexitstant sky daddy

[@sparthyslaysstuff2405]

Despite being called Garuda, the incarnations seen in Final Fantasy games are more akin to mythological Harpies than anything else. Female, control of winds, bird like appearance, ill tempered.
