FFXIV - O8S Kefka SMN PoV - Aeternum (Game sfx)

[@Calibrated420]

jesus finally a video of the transition without people talking over it, thanks a ton.

[@freya3217]

The "Life... Dreams... Hope" dialogue had me in tears. Need to run this dungeon!

[@RedheadButNotReally]

7:46 I seriously can't get over how well-executed this is.

[@darkchris66]

The camera angle you had when you were to the side as he was coming down. That was Godly!

[@Darkyan97]

OMG THEY'VE EVEN PUT HIS LAUGH IN!

[@Guttesen1992]

They did but still no Suplex Phantom Train :(

[@solitonmedic]

Kefka laughing after resetting your limit gauge is the most brilliant thing ever

[@buddhabunnee]

the transition cutscene is super bad ass. thx for the upload! i still can't do savage anything so it's nice to see lol

[@TenebrisGladius]

Wow....i'm just speechless

[@valcristPL]

He is as oversized as in game sprite. Nice.

[@maxsifer6416]

That's a thing FFXIV does well with bosses. It keeps a very Final Fantasy aesthetic

[@Tapabomb]

@@maxsifer6416 I still remember the first time I saw the Sophia cutscene, i literally yelled at how good it was

[@mark0183]

07:46 square need to make FF6 remake like this❤

[@isaacrodriguez9960]

Strongly agree buddy!

[@sansfangirl4life439]

rumor has it that if FF7R was successful (which it very much was) that they intend to give 6 and 5 the same treatment

[@elvampe13]

@@sansfangirl4life439 Im currently playing through FF6 for the first time. A remake with modern graphics would greatly improve some of the amazing plot elements ive seen so far!

[@sansfangirl4life439]

@@elvampe13 yes owo/

[@hereniho]

@@sansfangirl4life439 Sadly I get the feeling they'd rather remake VIII and IX before ever glancing a second look at pre-VII games, besides for re-releases. I'd kill for a VI Remake, but until we know for sure the best we've got is ol' Sigmascape here. Which are still amazing imo

[@Darkzro317]

That laugh has been my text alert for like 5 years now and it always freaks someone out. xD

[@lmj2k]

Thanks for the idea.

[@Fungorrr]

Here's a final fantasy villain that the player and his party actually outright LOSES to. He won. Ruled the world for over a year and fucked it up permanently. Awesome villain.

[@Carpatouille]

In my FF6 save, I actually left the game after he destroyed the world and fighting him once, leaving him victorious

[@P3ndaAd3m]

I recently play the pixel remaster and in the ending its clear the world of balance was restored after kefka death, we saw places that might be destroyed in the world of ruin in the endings scene ^%

[@awerges2205]

I'm really happy they made Kefka into a boss in this game. I wish they worked a bit more on the death sequence though. When he goes down in FFVI its like the world is coming to an end. That would have been really cool to see that represented here.

[@espio30]

Maybe Omega Ultimate?

[@GreyFoxVinzin]

That "Forsaken" sound effect as it shifts background and environment is exactly the right unsettling noise that it has to be.

[@brianbaratheon]

Praise Him. Praise lord Kefka....

[@Athai_]

Oh damn Xeno was in this!

[@shugafakker]

omfg my favorite game of all time is in this game

[@daeroc]

I like Final Omega but I love God Kefka. This is the shiz.

[@xagnarok3991]

Love the song of FF6 fight and the one from the final boss combine, this fight is really fun! And this time, no genji glove + offering combo to 1 shoot him ;) Kefka really got buffed hoa hoa hoa hoa!

[@SelenyumSe34]

THANK YOU for this clean video of the audio and the transition without "OH GOD OH WOW SHIT FUCK OH MY GOD FUCK".

[@cloud3406]

Im speechless this is fcking amazing and his laugh x.x

[@Necrostrike]

20 min boss fight is insane. Now that's endurance.

[@penrilfake]

Necrostrike it's split into two parts. The first is vs normal Kefka and lasts around 6 minutes. The second is vs God Kefka and lasts a tad more than 12 mins. Once you kill Kefka and face his holy self you start from that point on even if you wipe, so it's a checkpoint of sorts. Still pretty long instance though! That said, Bahamut Ultimate was a single long fight that did last around 20 minutes.

[@ezekielbaskerville2710]

Also, the second part is only avaiable to the higher difficulties.

[@HisShadowX]

GLORIOUS!

[@sdlock83]

Why did you block out the tower statue in the background?! That is what makes this whole battle epic!!

[@RasnerG]

the tower does mechanics that fuck with you if you look at it

[@danthedeer8]

as I just got bored with the game and cancelled\uninstalled, they added this!

[@pitavant4348]

I hope they do Emperor Mateus next :o

[@ShadedChrome]

They could still do the Emperor (from FF II), as they used the FF XII Esper Mateus. He isn't even called Mateus in the game, only the novel, so the Emperor could actually work - but I fear that's not likely.

[@efknight]

My money is on FF7 theme next. As far as powerful opponents being Omega's design goes, in Japan there is no antagonist more well regarded than Sephiroth. Plus he is another character that has a final fight transformation that works well with how they've been designing these Savage fights.

[@PhantomBlackStar]

Have they done Final Fantasy 4 related stuff yet?

[@ezekielbaskerville2710]

efknight If we go by your argument, the Emperor is actually one of the most likely candidates. He's very popular in Japan.

[@srash8854]

This looks hard

[@Delicashilous]

17:32 Is that his Scream?

[@jc3001]

Man...the nostalgia!

[@TheBestDoorSkeelz]

I just... I just don't know how to process this. Realm Reborn is just too much of a mess. However, it sort of felt like a fever dream watching this... which feels right for Kefka. Nice work!

[@MrDdGANGER]

xffing baldie is here

[@guerrerodude]

God, I love the forsaken 2 pandemonium. I think I had it easy as a DPS.

[@MechEngin3er26]

FFVI Full Open world Remake needs to happen. World of Balance on disk 1 and World of Ruin on Disk 2. Make it happen Square Enix!

[@LostMercenary99]

THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!!!!

[@chokoanders6546]

Finally a. Ideo of this fight without people speakningen over it

[@titaniumursa]

Sigh. I've never been able to get to the transition with any of the V.4 Savages. I don't know if it's me, or if I just never find a good team. Really sucks. I wanted to fight god Kefka.

[@Greatermaxim]

Kefka does not have the last laugh. Terra wins from plot armor.

[@thepechenbka7437]

He even uses "Fallen one"

[@Fungorrr]

Would have liked him to die with a *POW* *POW* *boss shakes and turns to dust from the feet upward* but they did an incredible job on this fight as it is. No real complaints!

[@chrisdaughen5257]

There's a guy named Yozora in your party a year before KH3 came out lol

[@Dworim]

haha yeah, it's a reference to "yozora mikazuki" I believe, so not from KH in this case

[@rptalk3033]

@@Dworim omg i just noticed it. shout them out for the haganai reference, they even got sena in on it :0 are they friends?

[@Dulkh4n]

I still dont understand why there are no voice acting in some really imporatnt parts of this game...

[@efknight]

Why would you want Kefka voice acted anyways?

[@Xero_Kaiser]

You say that like Kefka hasn't been voice acted for years already.

[@coolsharkcody]

Kefka doesn't need voice acting. All he needs is his creepy laugh

[@vegalucas7782]

Hate to say this but Kefka is got to be REALLY handsome without those clown makeups. Im dead serious

[@buddhabunnee]

I was thinking the same thing looking at HD stills of the regular version. his god version looks absolutely terrifying though xD

[@Suomimaster]

What melds are you using on your SMN gear? The normal Crit -> Dhit -> Spell Speed?

[@Dworim]

I went with Crit>Dhit>Det for SMN/RDM and Crit-Sps>Dhit>Det for BLM. Things can change once we whip up new bis sets for all of them though.

[@trollzland1337]

Wish they found a way to replicate his death

Where he literally melts? lol

@@apathyreaper5323 Exploding into sparkles isn't the same as an eerily tranquil desintegration

[@Redacted154]

i want to ask u is sps good 4 sum? is it bad 2 b low on sps as sum

[@Dworim]

Generally spell speed is less valuable than the other stats for SMN, this also applies for RDM (which doesn't even get the dot gain from the stat). For now it's safe to follow Crit > Dhit > Det > Sps and then go for a reasonable balance between them.

[@Scoreman7769]

Is that the KZbin streamer xenosys vex

[@Dworim]

yeah, THE xeno

[@xBeShO]

What do you use to record the screen?

[@Dworim]

Hey, I think it was Open Broadcaster Software (OBS Studio) at the time of recording. If you have a Nvidia graphics card, you can also look into Shadowplay. Both are pretty solid options, Open Broadcaster is more customizable but Shadowplay is easier to set up. Both have a "Replay Buffer" option as well where you can set your recording limit to 10-15 minutes, depending on the length of the fight you want to record. The software runs in the background and saves the defined past minutes by pressing a hotkey, thus saving you disk space.

[@xBeShO]

@@Dworim thanks alot mate!

[@JKordero]

Wow... WOW....wOW....wOw,.....

[@Kishuy]

Your pull is quite different from mine. Why is it that you do not brother with pet swap or mana shift the bard?

[@Dworim]

Hey, I swapped to SMN for this fight only for a tiny boost in dps back in progression, and at the time I hadn't practiced the petswap opener enough to feel comfortable with it. As for Mana Shift I do it normally, for some reason just missed it here (it's present on God Kefka opener though I used it after Enkindle and it clips outside of the drain).

[@Kishuy]

hmm, have you tested pet swap versus non pet swap? I can't use parser myself so unless I brother a friend it's hard to measure and test it out, so I kinda would prefer to train and focus on one, although o6s basically forces a non swap on. We are currently at Normal kefka progress but they will probably have me switch to smn for that as well next week

[@Dworim]

From what I remember petswap was mathed out to be a small potency gain for yourself but gives out a larger impact when you take into account that it improves the burst of others as well.

[@Andreithelord]

OMG THE OMEGA RAID IS THE BIGGEST CROSSOVER TO DATE! I wonder who's next? Sephiroth?

[@dracotheshadowphoenix]

then i hope the TRUE Sephiroth...and samurai drops an overlong sword xD

[@RasnerG]

Sadly we wont get sephirot since omega doesnt exist on ff7 and dirge of cerberus doesnt count, maybe the weapons but not actual sephirot

[@Andreithelord]

why the hell would dirge of cerberus not count? And based on what we got so far, the other games are stories and legends in eorzea. Nevertheless, while I agree, given the Omega of ff7 is different, DoC IS canon to the series, so it should count.

[@Omnicrom]

Possibly but doubtful, and I question whether he'd get the same treatment as Kefka and Exdeath got.

[@maxsifer6416]

We got Chaos from FFI and just Omega. Other two were FF14 centric. So no Sephiroth

[@nl2298]

Better than in FF6.

[@Delicashilous]

Goner.

[@yumemirai4419]

[@gabrielshadwick886]

hmmm how is harder HIM or Bahamut on Ultimate

Unending Coil is still the hardest fight in the game

[@nnovatakaren5515]

Nice, though imo would have liked to hear only the bgm. Nevertheless this one is far better than almost every other video out there.

[@Dworim]

thanks, I personally thought they did a great job with both the visuals and sounds in this fights so wanted to include them too

[@sygfridlink4148]

Savage has become so lame that even those legendary screams (nerdgasms) are gone ... sad
