Dawntrail Trailer Reaction

[@Topazzzzzz]

"I never really found Meteor hot hes a bit too twinky" followed by "HOHH CLEAVAGE" absolutely sent me lmfao

[@Chocobo0Scribe]

Meteor saw Clive’s outfit and went “I need to up my sexy game”

[@Froggsroxx]

"[Deranged] ERENVILLE!!!!" I felt that deep. Im so glad to have a character who isn't just pale and white haired with us lmaoooo

[@GarnetDust24]

Never forget what they did to yshtola 🙃

[@Froggsroxx]

@@GarnetDust24 what?

[@GarnetDust24]

@@Froggsroxx look at her skin color from ARR until now.

[@Froggsroxx]

@@GarnetDust24 you mean that she got a slight tan and then lost it? Seems like a poor analog for not having actual characters of colour. The game definitely has an aesthetic bias towards light skinned characters, as illustrated by the excitement of Erenville being prominent.

[@SunChaoJun]

Mamool Ja: "What's your work history" Estinien: "I've had years of training slaying dragons in Ishgard" Mamool Ja: "You'll be a perfect babysitter" meanwhile Urianger going to visit every Margaritaville in Tural

Thancred: "Uri what about the kids!?" Urianger: "Not-esth now Than-baby **hic** Im gettin mineself WASTED!" *falls over

[@GhostTempest1802]

I REALLY hope Erenville is with us during the whole expansion, I would die lol I can't wait for this expansion! Can't believe we have a summer vacation expansion now.

[@dumbino7745]

why can't someone look at me the same way G'raha looks at his taco

[@Hecktrope]

6:52 the 180 of not finding Meteor hot, and then, immediately seconds later, paying attention to the cleavage. pure. gold.

[@xombieblondie]

We all lost our shit at erenville

[@xicision2533]

Yshtola has died 5 times, is that a problem? Cats have 9 lives!!

[@Benaveil]

In the lore, Y'Shtola is blind but she has Aether Sight. The entirety of the world of Etheris is made of Aetrher from rocks, glass containers, and even inks on books. She can see the words because it is made of Aether, she is able to see different. Think of her like Daredevil!

[@countyagi]

Dude I love you. Ty for blessing us with your reactions.

[@Shinywindow]

Thank you! :)

[@Local_custard]

3:00 Alisae is holding a sugar apple of sorts! If you are curious, this fruit comes from the genus of annona. The fruits are usually sweet, soft, a bit floral, and some may taste a bit custard-like! Fun fact: a lot of trees from this genus are poisonous (save for the edible fruit (not the seeds)) and of the two species I had experience growing, it would release a bitter scent when touched or jostled slightly to try telling herbivores to not eat it.

[@Liltama]

pensé que era una chirimoya 😆😆

[@Local_custard]

@@Liltama could be! I was primarily noting the genus ^^; a quick search led me to think it is probably a sweetsop.

[@rajabuta]

I think another fruit from the same family is soursop

[@Local_custard]

@@rajabuta indeed. As is ylang ylang (Annonaceae family), pond apple, cherimoya, and pawpaw (Asimina triloba, the only annonaceae I know of that is cold hardy). Annonaceae as a family includes many species of fruit so there is no shortage to learn about!

[@GimmeTOKYO]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who started crying over how cute the baby Mamool Ja are 🥹🥹🥹🥹

[@closetwarrior]

I dunno why Eistinien suddenly has this thing where tiny cute baby things love him but I love that *for* him Also I think this is fantasy Brazil, not Mexico, maybe that explains why there's so many white people crawling around Also Final Fantasy really is that girl, they said "Oh you thought Meteor was a twink? Well guess what he's a bad boy now and he's got 6 chest hairs and he's ready to show them off" and put a whole cleavage in

[@vladimirtepis]

To be fantasy Brazil need less tacos and more tapiocas.

[@Firestar4041]

Why is my first thought that Meteor is actively saying that; Meteor: "Im a bad boy now, i got 6 whole chest hairs and ready to show the world!" Scions: " . . ." Yshtola: **while "reading" plucks one of the hairs not even looking** Meteor: **tears in eyes** "5 whole chest hairs!" ;3;

[@Memyx]

I didn't even notice WoL's cleavage till you said something... I think Clive FFXVI had an effect on the design team, lol.

[@eliseuhenrique9289]

"i hope there's gay shit" yeah me too

[@chabon31]

After 2 certain quests from the island sanctuary Im almost positive that there will be

[@Zagreus717]

As a brazilian, i'm quite excited to see how this expansion is going to interpret and reference south american cultures. Love your vids, they always make me cackle!

[@Shinywindow]

Thank you!! Me and every other FFXIV player is gonna learn more about south american cultures when the expac hits!!!

[@salemfae]

Ooo true they did promise Krile- i betchu they can't show her yet bc shes gonna have the new casting class!! Already cant wait for October to see more aaaa

[@Ryo_Hakuron]

Hopefully. The only thing is Krile has repeatedly stated she's not good in a fight. But maybe she just needed to find her niche.

[@NecrochildK]

The fruit Alisaie has is a custard apple/sugar apple. It's native to tropical regions of America, so mostly Latin America.

[@twilightfire93]

We could very well go to Meracydia as well! This is just a teaser, after all, so we'll see more at EU and JP Fanfests! I'm hoping for Meracydia AND Corvos, myself. But damn, do I feel your reactions! I can't wait for our summer vacay xD And one last side note, everyone is thinking that Meteor is Corsair, which is a pirate class from back in V! It looks like he's got a holster for a gun on his leg, and he's got that sword, so dual wielding a sword and gun! And the other class people are guessing we're getting off of Yoshi-P's shirt, which he did confirm will be Caster, might be Pictomancer, since the Turtles are named after artists.

[@Blitzwaffen]

Meracydia is EXTREMELY isolationistic especially after the issue with the Allagans in ages past. At present Meracydia will att, sink or kill anyone that approaches their shores. So if we do go to Meracydia it would not be openly or if we had a VERY good introduction npc (Tiamat)

[@twilightfire93]

@Blitzwaffen I don't remember them being that hostile? Could you point to where it says that in the story or lore? Could be I forgot that part, but you're right that Tiamat asking for our help/being our escort to Meracydia is the best bet for us going there.

[@Blitzwaffen]

@@twilightfire93 I know it's in one of the two encyclopedias of Eorzea but I have the books in storage at the moment. I will confirm with another friend who has both of the volumes available and get back to you

[@twilightfire93]

@Blitzwaffen No prob! I kinda figured it was in the Encyclopedias, as I haven't cracked open my copies either, due to moving soonish myself.

[@Firestar4041]

The issue with going off the armor/threads is so many of them do have little things that could hint at other job classes Not doubting it'll be Pirate, if not Pirate-adjacent (tho i recall them saying the new Job Classes were gonna be brand new to the franchise?)

[@randogai2915]

As a Peruvian I’m so excited to see what they do this time like the 2nd area they showed called URQOPACHA that’s Peruvian af

[@Xport9]

Varshahn being a VTuber. That's pretty inline with his character, since you know....💀 🤣

[@toychristopher]

I'm glad all the scions are here and interested in what they described as a conflict or rivalry between two different groups of scions. We might have a party member from the new world because the narration at the end of the video is from someone who calls Tural their home.

[@Jocksto]

As for how it doesn't look like the "cowboy aesthetic", Dawntrail seems to be just be on the scope of the Southern side of the New World (Relative to Southern American style and culture). In the future, they might cover on the Northern side of the New World which would cover Northern America and comically now make that one outfit make sense. *cough* 'new world outfit' *cough*

[@soulechelon2643]

omg you are precious you know that? xD! Also pretty sure Erenville's part of that "Fresh Face" deal but you do have a point about the Scions still being together for so long. That said, I think legitimately at this point they're all just...friends now. Friends that go on adventures together. Fresh faces are definitely needed, but the old ones are still welcomed for me personally.

[@Shinywindow]

My only worry is the Scions taking spotlight away from new characters and even Krile, I'd like them to just chill out and let somebody else get Flow'd for once.

[@ainsart]

I really, really loved this!! I appreciate how you so passionately love some parts, and give criticism about others. Shows you're being genuine! If they release more trailers I'd be happy to watch another vid like this from you :]

[@Shinywindow]

Awww thank you!! I didn't expect such a positive response to this reaction, so I'll try and do more :D

[@Firestar4041]

On the topic of new characters, yeah i can understand that I guess going thru, and seeing the Scions as, basically just our errand giver, it was nice to *finally* have them HELP in Shadow Bringers They have moments in the MSQ, but the Trust System, finally made them feel like they were *actively, HELPING* (its a bit of a gripe i have, along with how many times our WoL is just standing dumbfounded, when they can literally suplex the big bad in 0.2 nano seconds...) So i dont mind them sticking around, just for the sake of having them help out now. But yea, i understand the take of weve had them around for so long. It helps they slowly gave earlier bits the Trust System, but god. Its hard not to agree with Gaius and Issilbard after soloing most of ARR thru Storm Blood... (with 3 to 7 of our adventuring friends) Back on topic, i do like the idea if Graha and Estenine are the only recurring characters, seeing as they really joined in, late ShB. (they were in ARR, but Graha got sidelined, hard, till ShB. Estenien was anti hero class quest, to main role in HW, to background in SB, to sideline background in ShB) So they act as our connection to our previous team. Like the 3 mentors for the new Scions coming up or something.

[@Kusagrass]

We can all agree that conquistadors are far more offensive than pirates.

I never get tired of your reactions lol G'raha is becoming a food connoisseur, I hope he gets to try more local cuisines around the area. lol Also hope we get some of that ethnic clothes as glamour because they are gorgeous!

Honestly them calling this new area the "new world" has me...nervous 😬

[@serisothikos]

Don't worry, the reaction in the room for Erenville was the same. e: I actually latched onto Nidhana as our local, "native" pal in Endwalker moreso than Varshahn/Vrtra for the reason you said. Nidhana is one of my favorite characters in the whole game because she is bursting with agency and intelligence, and I hope we see more of her over the years. At the moment, the core combat Scions are: elezen, elezen, miqo, hyur, elezen, miqo, and elezen, with our primary support Scions being lala + lala. No roes, auri, viera, or hrothgar. There needs to be some sort of shakeup where we expand the core group!

[@Shinywindow]

I seriously thought Nidhana was gonna be a Trust character... a Tribes party member would be sooo refreshing

Those are mamool ja, not ixal

[@Neobahamutfr36]

I can't understand how one can mix them. Ixali are birds with two curved horns on their head, Mamool Ja are lezards with only one horn. It was the same with people confusing Vrtra for Tiamat when they don't even have the same head. Tiamat has horns poking backward around her head, while Vrtra is the only one in the First Brood to have this big horn on his nose. It's as if I said Estinien was Emmanellain, or G'raha was X'rhun...

[@zachsroomYT]

Why does everyone confuse Mamool Ja with Ixal?!

I guess we forget they exist lol I even called them Ixal at first but since they are more birds and got a good look at them is when I realized it was the Mamool Ja
