"You're not just a prick, you're the whole cactaur!" I lost it on that one...

[@neehawk777]

It sounds like the best Insult for a Final Fantasy world.

[@TrixCoyote]

"I may be bi but I have a preference for women" that's gonna be my new quote now

[@nurihighwind5871]

Watching u go nuts over the wings made me smile

[@fizzyvods235]

"It is time to simp" *Quest Accepted*

[@fizzyvods235]

We all know that all of us would accept this quest

[@alexachandra6561]

Yes

[@acehealer4212]

[guitar riff]

[@simiansaiyan8162]

XD bro I was hoping for this comments XD

[@ddubmomo]

“GO BACK, I WANT TO BE MONKEY!” is just begging to be a text/alert tone and I love it more each time I rewind it in between snuffles

[@paulbbryan]

What if we kissed... Underneath the pride crystal...

[@suneee_]

but what if we kissed... at the gay lava cave...

[@Scyrocko]

unless...?

Every time the battle music started in the first 3rd of the vid I just kept hearing "Water and water and water water" subconsciously

[@Somerandomedude-go8el]

“It is time to simp” *QUEST ACCEPTED*

[@howarddenaven5165]

Im glad im not the only one who was emotionally affected by the quote

[@andrewseet4408]

Oh I’m dying from that. Perfect timing indeed 🤣

[@vitico123ful]

"How dare you not know this fight immediately off the bat from the first time ever playing" gives me flash backs of an mmo I used to play with raids.

[@raikiri000]

Few people got the "It's all about love, friendship and courage" FF8 reference there, I see

[@ravenmadd3895]

Considering that my main is a hyur gunbreaker with Thancred's hairstyle colored brown, wears the Leonhart garb, has a scar across his face, and is named Storm Leonhart (because the game wouldn't let me name him Squall, and I doubt it would let me name him Leon,) yeah, I got that reference as well.

[@mrfipp]

"They're girlfriends." They recreated the ending of FFVIII with Squall and Rinoa, one of FF most prominent main title couples, there's some weird-ass denial going on if they say there's no romantic subtext between Ryne and Gaia.

[@LadCarmichael]

It's Hibike Euphonium all over again....

[@BigLesbian]

Wish SE just made them a couple not this "maybe they are! Maybe they aren't huhuhuhuhu" kinda thing

[@VerbalLearning]

i feel like the GIANT RAINBOW COLORED CRYSTAL kind of gives it away. For those who have any remaining doubt.

[@LadCarmichael]

@@VerbalLearning lol, first time? It's Japan, you have girls practically kissing each other and they're not gay, "just very good friends".

I'm so glad Jo is playing this game, too, and caught up with the content. He complements your group so well.

[@The-Apothekari]

26:56 - Cid: "Finally after all these years, I can now play Cyberpunk on my new Gaming Rig." 27:03 - Cid: "Nooo it's too buggy!, My Specs can't handle it on medium! Fix it devs!" Nero: "I told you to upgrade your pc." Cid: "Not Now Darling, I'm having a moment!" *Frantically hits it with a wrench*

[@Phandomdrifter]

Looks like voxer finally got his wings. Also reject humanity return to monke

[@jasongarrett768]

The biggest problem with this patch is that Explore Mode will only allow up to four people to have a Pride march through Matoya’s Relict at a time. Literally unplayable.

[@TheDaxter11]

I'd love to see Shens first reaction to that cutscene where you, Thancred and Urianger are listening in on Ryne and Gaia, and you're characters just fucking popping squats in the background. I couldn't take that scene seriously cause of that, I loved it.

[@ekian111]

Friendly reminder that Akadaemia Anyder's last boss Quetzalcoatl had the title "Guardian Force," and was created through the sacrifice of one of the Amaurotian researcher's there. The first boss/floor of Eden, Eden Prime, also had the same title "Guardian Force."

[@EvilOdysseus]

I swear Square Enix only added those wings for Shen

[@RatingHyperion]

Hyllfyr's VA is Barbosa from Pirates of the Carribean if anyone didn't know. He's legit voiced by a pirate. What a wonderful day it was hearing it

[@hideharu-xiii8852]

GEOFFERY RUSH VOICES HYLLFYR?!?!?!

[@twilightfire93]

WAIT WHAT I THOUGHT HE SOUNDED FAMILIAR

[@RatingHyperion]

He does indeed! I was so shocked but yeah

[@twilightfire93]

No freaking way. That's amazing!!

[@CorraThaxton]

Geoffrey Rush from the PotC films or Brian George from the PotC games (and KH)? The latter I could see, but not the former.

[@bigshlormpin]

10:47 "It is time to simp." QUEST ACCEPTED

[@cherrytachi3530]

I didn't realize it was Jo voicing him, I thought that was part of the game! It sounded really good!

“What did I drink liquified pizza?!” Me: no that’s a glazed wiggler smoothie

[@holmesholmes.8784]

[@mrquackadoodlemoo]

The utter joy Shen got from the angel wings was genuinely heartwarming.

[@malkman1958]

I’ve never clicked a KZbin notification so fast

[@ajthecat2982]

Average weeaboo same I only wish it was a longer video. Oh well time to go check the live stream ^.^!

[@amiablereaper]

4:33 "the power of the lgbts have finally taken over" Shenpai predicts 5.4

[@MalganisLefay]

Nice Artemisia/ Reference with that Artemis of Ephesus Design for the last boss

[@urbncampr]

Watching Shen lose it over the wings brought a huge smile to my face especially when they showed them on the live letter

[@Con5tantine]

I don't know whats going on, I barely understand this game, there is so much here I don't understand the stakes in...but I'm here for Shen and Voxer. So I guess thats good enough *sits with popcorn*

[@Krysta1Rose]

Oh you know, the usual save the world stuff in any FF game 😂

[@markelbro5130]

Same

[@spoopy_robino]

Hearing JoCat say some of the things he's saying in this video just comes to show how much Shen has corrupted him. It even shows when he's streaming by himself with some of the jokes he's been making (enough to make a grown man blush)

[@Leo_Elemantis]

[@GrayeIra]

She has done what must be done. OwO

[@redcrystal7710]

I CRIED when Ga Bu was revealed. I absolutely lost it in VC chat for my FC. IM SO GLAD MY BABY IS BACK!!! ;_;

[@nonloper5969]

NEW SHENPAI VIDEO YES FINALLY SOME GOOD FUCKIN CONTENT TO WATCH QUICK-

[@icrangirl]

Dude I watched this durring my lunch break and it took everything to keep from busting out laughing in the break room several times. Amazing video Shen.

[@milk_bread7517]

[@pixlattono6693]

7:31 “Kill it fast with our swords!” Puppo: “you fool.... I HAVE A SWORD TOO!”

I said it when I did Eden's Promise and I'll say it again "FUSION IS JUST A CHEAP TACTIC TO MAKE WEAK ASCIANS STRONGER" ~Mitron, probably.

[@alduindovah3566]

I'm new to FFXIV and I can't wait to get into the further expansion stories, especially Heavensward. Cuz Dragoons for life!

[@jasongarrett768]

Without spoiling anything, Dragoon is one of the most thematically satisfying jobs to end the Heavensward arc on.

[@thebluecyclone7958]

This patch was definitely a trip in itself, I did the raids with Cen first thing first and we were screaming the entire way through lol. I’m glad to see your reactions :D

[@Oathkeeper0317]

When will we ever see the 5.3 storyline video? I wanna see Shen cry her eyes out.

[@NuSpirit_]

8:04 it was at this moment they knew... they messed up :P

[@GorochuVA]

Gaia is just Kairi's anger over only existing to be kidnapped, y'know, creepypasta-style

[@specimen057]

Anyone else Remember Pika Plays? Edit: Hard to imagine after 7 years she's come so far. It's amazing.

[@lens_hunter]

Friend: Hey do you watch Shenpai? Me: That the chick who yells a lot?

[@Captain.Mystic]

"Will zenos finally get his 1v1 in final destination fox only?" well...

[@submariNervous]

21:45 - To be fair, you DID tell your little fur goblin not to fling himself at your desk. You can't really fault him for actually following your request...

I just wanna point out, I googled Gaia out of curiosity and the first suggestion search term is 'FFXIV Gaia Lips'

"You might forget us!" Voxer: '_'

[@commander_swift3765]

it's funny, I watched these videos long before I started playing FFXIV, so coming back to them now, now that I understand everything that happened, is a very strange experience

[@unit9578]

"Empty Plane," or as I like to call it, "Dance Floor." Also, Thancred + Ran'jit + Innocence = NO THANK YOU.

[@rebeccalewin547]

i cant help but feel the buff man statues trying to punch their way into a tender lesbian memory has some kind of hidden meaning

[@fanofafi1989]

Worries about one person, cleaves the rest of the group. Can relate xD I love your energy omg

[@GayLPer]

That feel when you accidentally make a surprise cameo appearance in the video of a streamer you love. (13:29 in case anyone is wondering)

[@creaturefeaturegonnageetch5111]

Pretty sure the ascian guy isn't abusive, he's just gone crazy from being a lightwarden for like 1000 years or smth. He had a proper relationship with Gaia as an ascian and can't let that go.

[@i.147]

wiping out someones memories and literally kidnapping them isnt abusive???

[@creaturefeaturegonnageetch5111]

@@i.147 I meant before then. Like when they were actually in a relationship. And to be fair, he's not exactly sane. Its like how Emetdoesnt view us as people-he sees Gaia as her ascian self rather than human.

[@pwnorbepwned]

Explaining why someone is being abusive doesn’t make it not abusive.

[@creaturefeaturegonnageetch5111]

@@pwnorbepwned If you read what I said, I was talking about before , when they were both ascians. They seemed to have a proper relationship, which Gaia even acknowledges after the final fight with "if I had found you sooner".

bruh not me in this vid for like 5 seconds and i don't even remember running past you help 😭

I'm so happy that Admiral Mommy got the spotlight for a bit at last. It feels like it's been an age.

[@steweygrrr]

Theres a tank swap? In _normal mode?_ NICE! Why haven't I done this yet!

[@MH4wheel]

Not really, it's similar to the one in E4N where the debuff is there but you can survive without the swap if you pop two CDs. Basically the casual tank may fall for it. I imagine with the current max ilvl you'll need one only. But it totally foreshadows a necessary one in the Extreme.

[@steweygrrr]

@@MH4wheel aye I've mostly healed as sch this expansion but tanked most of them too but when I tanked all the way through 4.X as DRK with my only 70 and then going from normal to savage and extreme there wasn't anything like that to prepare you for that being a thing. I hope that they do more of that in the future imo.

[@FreedomSylph]

The only place I remember that you need tank swap in normal raid is the alchemist goblin boss from that one alex raid
