I so appreciate this, I just started this game two weeks ago and it is a little overwhelming.

“Let me know if you want a deep dive into Astral/Umbral.” Jesse, I want you to embrace your past as a history teacher and teach me everything you can about this world. I’m a new player, didn’t know what the hell was going on, and now I’m fascinated by it because of this video. PLEASE do a deep dive on it, and literally anything else about the game.

Heartily seconded.

PLEASE make a video, I will gladly help with art hahaha :D

[@Lenaleeluna]

Don't know for sure, but wasn't Astral Passive and Umbral Active? The fact that people thought it was reversed came from the whole light good, darkness baaaaaad. But in SHB we learn that Astral energy makes Aether passive. While Umbral makes it active. It is also proved in the Black Mage rotation. Astral fire STOPS MP regen, Umbral ice greatly regens it

[@Lynesth]

I never realized just how closely tied the Alliance Raids are to the lore and history of the game. It’s really cool to see and I can’t wait to see what Endwalker’s Alliance Raids will show!

[@xalrath]

the Heavensward alliance raids are a big delightful halloween-themed loredump. ARR's is "we really liked FF3 and nobody in America ever played it," Stormblood's is "we haven't put Final Fantasy Tactics in this game yet, we should do that," and then Shadowbringers' is an epilogue to Nier: Automata, because Square-Enix wanted to do a promotional crossover and Yoko Taro feeds on the suffering of people who enjoy his games. (FF3's big deal is that one of the three master sorcerors of the world, Xande, has slightly lost it on learning that he is going to one day die, and is so deciding to flood the world in darkness to stop time so he doesn't have to die. On beating him, you discover that whoops, he's been being puppeted by the Cloud of Darkness ever since he delved a little too greedily and too deep looking for a way to not die. People who have played through Crystal Tower may be entertained to know that the other two master sorcerors of FF3 were Doga and Unei.)

[@Gyrono]

For the Stormblood one, FF12 is happening concurrently too but with the Garleans being the empire instead FF12s empire

[@thetrin]

The Endwalker Alliance raid has been confirmed to be about the Twelve. I'm excited!

[@Ractrin]

Interesting telling of Bahamut's story. Leaving out just enough detail to not spoil basically anything in heavensward or the coils raid, while simultaneously teasing coils. Also this was a nice refresher on some of the details I had forgotten about, especially the previous umbral/astral eras. I feel the 7th should have been at least been mentioned only to state that's the current one, and mentioning the element involved not really necessary.

[@Disconnected66]

[@drewwinter9811]

As a person who has played this game since 2.0, I have to say this is by far the most helpful lore video I have seen. I don't own the encyclopedia but this is way more open and welcoming than any other video. Thank you, you made it way more interesting and entertaining then anything out there. Thanks Jesse! 😁

[@dongster529]

I am surprised with how deep and detailed the lore is, even though I played a few FFs over the decades, I really never understood the lore. Having been a avid wow lore reader since warcraft 3, getting slowly jaded of the poor writing destroying the potential that the old stories had but still impressed by the level of quality of wow content creators. I look forward to having some old creators, test their mettle in this world where the lore seems to be much more fleshed out over the many games and learning the many quirks of each race.

[@shootyoureyeout]

Could not agree more. I've watched pretty much every lore video and series under the sun, and this is so easy to watch and understand.

[@megamage911]

@@dongster529 well, the thing about FF, each game has it's own self contained lore, outside of direct sequels like X-2. At most you'll see references, but it's mainly just stuff like chocobo's moogles and a few recognizable names like Cid and Biggs & Wedge.

[@alexrothe6197]

Yes please. We need another. As a HUGE fucking Warcraft Lore nerd, seeing the state of WoW and trying to enjoy FF14 just...left me starving for some much lore based context of what I'm doing. I love this, thank you Jesse. We need more!

Definitely feel free to bring it up either here or via his stream. He will definitely cover races since its also a big part of the world including beast tribes and how essential they are especially msot recently

[@gothicshark]

Some one should do deep dives on each of the Races, because there are a lot of strange histories of the Races, and even though we think of them coming from specific cities, many of them are not in fact Native to Eorzea. ie the original player racers Lalafell come from the mysterious southern continent originally, Hyur come from lands to the East, Rogyadyn come from islands far to the north, and Miqo'te come from the New World, meanwhile only Elezen are Native to Eorzea.

[@fredy2041]

Jessie, this is a really good video. A detail that you prob didnt know, and be safe that this is not spoiling anything. During the 5th Astral era, there were originaly 12 city states on Aldenard, but the War of Magi lay to ruin all of them, leaving eventualy only Amdapoar, Nym and Mhach.

[@Vulgarth1]

The War of the Magi included the destruction of Nym and Mhach too.

[@fredy2041]

@@Vulgarth1 Ohh of course, I just tried to said that there were more citys than just 3, but all of them got destroyed during the war, leaving only the cities we know as the last ones still standing on the war, because of how powerfull they were, before the flood came and destroyed them all.

[@seffay6875]

@@fredy2041 Are the names of the other city states known?

[@Yuyu5001]

@@Vulgarth1 technically Mach and Amdapor were destroyed by the Calamity. Realizing that the aetherial balance was amiss, and too weakened to continue fighting anyway, they finally ended the war in a ceasefire, but by that point it was far too late. The Mhachi built the Void Ark to escape, which went... badly, to put it nicely, while the Amdapori (and those of the Mhachi who didn't get on the Ark) fled uphills. There is a boat in the Ala Mhigo part of Abalathia's Spine on top of the mountains that was built by Amdapori refugees and became a big part in Ala Mhigan lore for being THE vessel their ancestors arrived there, guided by their god Rhalgr the Destroyer.

[@Yuyu5001]

@@seffay6875 I can look it up if you give me a couple hours. They might be mentioned in the lorebooks but I just finished lunch break at work and cannot look. But it is said that Amdapor especially kinda became a protector to surrounding nations, making them prosper not having to fear Mhach's expansionist tendencies. They basically conquered all the nations on their side of Aldenard until they came to Amdapor protected land, who had developed White Magic in advance as a protective measure, at which point Mhachi advance came to a halt. The situation continued to spiral out of control for the next decades or centuries until open war broke out. That's what I remember off the top of my head.

[@Circus0Solstice]

This is WILDLY useful! I've been playing for seven years and always watch the cutscenes, etc., but some of the proper nouns have always been so nebulous until now. I also imagine that a lot of this info was part of the old raids that folks don't necessarily have to dive into, so this is really great for catching up on that lore! I'm so excited to see more of these!

[@midnightbloomofeorzea7182]

Yeah, and class/job quests. Lore on the War of the Magi can be found in the White Mage, Black Mage, Red Mage, and Scholar quests, and the Shadow of Mach Alliance Raids (Heavensward 24 man's). Lore on Allag is from the Summoner quests, the Crystal Tower Alliance Raids (which are actually now mandatory to progress through MSQ), and various moments throughout the story in Heavenward and beyond. The New World is mentioned often in the Blue Mage quests, and Meracydia has been teased throughout the game very lightly, though most prominently in moments related to Bahamut and in the last few patches of Shadowbringers. ^_^

[@AExorcist]

@@Chocolate83Bunny oh I know about the book. My thinking is if this supposed to be a history class then a current events topic would be cool. Its a common social studies assignment in school where you share and discuss current events. I'm thinking more like an overview with a discussion of importance (ie, a what have we learned so far and why does it matter) rather then actual one by one go through of the entire story. I think it would be interesting especially for players that story skipped or have been playing for a long time. Like for instance i've been playing since ARR phase 3 beta. That's a lot of information fed to players like me that we consumed slowly over 8 years. Anyways just a suggestion.
