[@Wonderingwatcher]

Who is here again at 2024?

[@HarleyQuinnsEx]

Me

[@madhat1212]

Yup!

[@MrGoesBoom]

Heya!

[@DarkWarden041]

Standing at the Ready, Comrades!

[@Avrahffxiv]

2025 :3

[@Avrahffxiv]

If you're reading this then I hope you have an amazing time in Endwalker! ENDWALKER tribute is out on my channel :3 Also 20k views wow! So much love. 30k :3 luv you all

[@RiskyReal]

I was NOT ready for the 'still alive to mourn those who are not' scene. That killed me. Great job

[@Avrahffxiv]

aw thank you

[@williamlongstaff6638]

Same

[@kimsullivan1162]

This is the most PERFECT way you could have portrayed it all. The mix of cutscenes and your own personal adventures was exactly what was needed to draw out the emotions of anyone who has truly played this game and felt the emotions as they went along their own journey. I cried, 10/10 I hope you never take this video down, it hits home.

[@Avrahffxiv]

it shall remain forever. thank you for sharing.

[@djstix5617]

On this you are right. It really pushed out the tears, making me cry, like I haven't for a long time.. Emotional, because.. We know..

[@WolfRoms]

This hits home every time I watch it. I honestly wish I would have captured my adventures like this. Thank you for this

[@bytewolfychu_1461]

0:56 God that entire part.. Lena's powerful line.. The survivor's guilt and her voice breaking at the end.. The scene shifting to the WoL leaning against Haurchefant's grave... It perfectly emulates what the WoL would have felt at that moment.. Just hits you like a Truck 10/10

[@Avrahffxiv]

thanks for taking the time to watch it.

[@od_static]

one of the best voice acted lines in the game if anyone would ask me

[@snonyabeeswax]

legit i thought you sweet fool i shouldve been hit by that beam i have plot armor dammit T-T

[@BladeJaxx]

@@Avrahffxiv I lost my girlfriend of 20 years in January this year. This line breaks me apart everytime. If I had just cared a bit more or been a minute faster she may be alive. That line tears me apart. She suffocated all on her own and I nor the paramedics could save her....if I had just checked on her a few minutes earlier she'd be alive. All you can do is keep going with your guilt and despair, it's the fucking worst.

[@georgesmith5201]

I was sick with covid and decided to give FFXIV a try. One of the greatest games I've ever played.

[@princesssunglow]

I’m just now watching this and my heart is breaking. It’s beautiful.

[@Avrahffxiv]

aw thanks.

[@lilrockstar8170]

Let's take a second to credit the voice actors. They did a phenomenal job.

[@Rookuri]

OK well, clicked on this on a whim this morning and ended up crying into my coffee. Beautiful work! This was so well edited and put together!

[@Avrahffxiv]

Means a lot coming from another content creator. Thank You!

[@yemn6243]

I hope the coffee still tasted okay!

[@mrgrumpit]

This is honestly one of the best ff14 videos I have ever seen.

[@Avrahffxiv]

i love coming back to it and reading everyone's comments. It was the first ffxiv vid i made and it still makes me very happy to see people are enjoying it.

[@Diettoxin]

The editing is so great, this game leaves such an impact and this video brings all those feels rushing back. I would love one of these for endwalker.

[@Avrahffxiv]

thank you. yea that's the plan

[@vyper8984]

Nine months on and I’m still coming back to this tribute 🤗

[@keuba3165]

The moments of just pure dancing were amazing. Despite all the pain and struggle we've gone through, we made so many friends, so many memories. Even in our darkest of times, they made every second the most enjoyable time of our life. Here's to Endwalker, and everything that comes after.

[@1033515]

To (slightly mis-)quote a troubled but brilliant poet, "A revolution without dancing is hardly worth having"

[@AkieenFenris]

I caught sight of this vid again after my brother recently starting the game and between this bringing back every emotion I felt playing this and seeing my brothers enthusiasm for it, my love has been rekindled and I find myself wishing I could play this blind again. It's such a powerful journey and this video encapsulates that so perfectly. ❤

[@Avrahffxiv]

it really is lightning in a bottle.

[@maetchiyu8320]

I wish I could send this to anybody who asks me if FF14 is a good game, but I wouldn't want to spoil them on such an amazing journey.

[@Avrahffxiv]

yea it's always a bit strange trying to sell FFXIV to people when you can't tell them anything about the story

[@FlareKnight2]

When you fight for your friends, your family you never truly fight alone! Even those who've made the ultimate sacrifice never truly leave you, you carry their hopes and dreams on within you.

[@whimsy3735]

I always tear up at the end, when G'raha starts his speech. WITHOUT FAIL. Even though I know it's coming.

[@kyttynkross1121]

I still come back to this video occassionally. It's take root in a weird place in my heart. I cry every time.

[@kyttynkross1121]

if Dawntrail doesn't wreck me the way the last two expansions did, I don't want it.

[@Kraehenblut]

Wow, just wow. The editing is great, the scenes picked so fitting to the lyrics as well as their emotional impact. This must have taken so long to get done. Best tribute I have seen so far. Thanks for uploading!

[@Avrahffxiv]

Yes it took awhile but it really fit my journey through the story and it was 100% worth it. I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@katwolfe597]

Agreed! This is absolutely breathtaking. One of the best ffxiv videos I've ever seen. Thank you for making this masterpiece!

[@magnusthedemon]

I keep coming back to this, time and time again. I dont know what it is, but i enjoy this so much

[@ZenBearV13]

A year later and more than a dozen viewings, this still gets me in the feels every time. So, so good. ❤

[@erikjuri4330]

This looks like the trailer to an epic triology! Beautifully done, have already rewatched and cried over this like four times ;_;

[@godzilla092000]

Anytime I feel I need to cry I come to this video, no matter what it always gets me. You who made this are a godsent at making amv's

[@Grimnoire]

Actually made me tear up I miss playing this!! there was so much emotion in every moment like this whole story was a miracle or something. I'm so happy this game exists thank you for making this!

[@Avrahffxiv]

the new content is amazing :3 you should come back! oh if you missed playing the story then yes i agree xD

[@koreofasphodel]

This was incredible! Thank you for uploading it!

[@Avrahffxiv]

glad you liked it!

[@sprinkletrackskopa3646]

This is so endearing. You did a great job! Very emotional.

[@darylchetty2870]

This is such an epic edit!!! From the music to the moments captured! Was sp amazing, keep up the great work!

[@AGamerX1]

This was absolutely phenomenal. Editing was great, and I adore your WoL's look as well. Might be one of the best out there!

[@Avrahffxiv]

wow thank you so much! I like hearing people like her xD.

[@AGamerX1]

@@Avrahffxiv Entirely deserved too. I look forward to any sort of Endwalker thing you put together. This even inspires me to go back and rewatch various moments too.

[@Avrahffxiv]

@@AGamerX1 yea it's taking me a long time XD. I've been learning adobe on top of putting everything together so it's been slow and I want it to be perfect.

[@AGamerX1]

@@Avrahffxiv I'm sure it'll be worth the wait though! I went and rewatched a few of the scenes you used and they're still so good. I just love this game and its story.

[@Tommyjm]

I've watched this at least 20 times over the years. The emotion behind this is wonderful, wonderful job!

[@Avrahffxiv]

yea we'll have to see about making something for DT

[@dopo1548]

I've listened to this so many times now. It just....fits the feeling of the story so well, the hope and loss. You capture the idea of the WoL being someone who has been through so much, yet is still able to find beauty and joy in life. Thank you for making this.

[@Avrahffxiv]

well thank you. it's my favorite too.

[@queenrhage5336]

This brought me to tears. I found this video recently and I keep coming back. I cry each and every time. Your work is amazing and I can't wait to see more.

[@Avrahffxiv]

it makes me a bit emotional to hear aha. I love being able to share this stuff with everyone. The game is a heck of a ride and I do my best to convey my experience in the video. Thanks for sharing.

[@vrycetarrant7952]

I watch this every week or two, still brings so much emotion... tysvm for this

[@grando2860]

For Kontext; i was writing a Story for a very Importend Person in my Life. But i got stuck at the very End.. i was not sure.. how to explain the emotions the Main Character is going through. How i should let the Story end.. Now im laying in Bed.. 23:53. Need to get up at 5:00 for Work. The Inspiration i got from this.. thanks to this emotional Rollercoaster.. im finally able to Finish my owen Story. Thank you, for Helping me. I needet that Tear of Joy and Suffering in my Eye

[@Avrahffxiv]

wow i am very happy for you my friend. Congrats on finishing your story.

[@MrGoesBoom]

The sound clips you use here showcase one of the many strengths of this game....the voice actors really sell what the characters are feeling

[@blakehubbard757]

Playing this game for 8+ years its so easy to get emotional. Great work, if i had a proper PC i'd do the same. Keep up the great work comrade

[@Avrahffxiv]

appreciate the words!

[@faceuphoy2981]

Not gonna lie, I speed-ran most of the content in an attempt to catch up to my wife, who had already gotten to Endwalker when I started playing. Aside from the more obvious sad moments, I rushed through so fast I didn't really get attached to many of the characters or their arcs; or so I thought. As I watched your video, I remembered where I was during every cutscene, emotions I didn't feel then, I felt, relating to seeing your version of it. The part with Lena and Haurchefaunt's gravestone specifically hit hard, that was so well done. Thank you for this. It gave me the ability to actually feel and remember the story behind the game, rather than just me logging in to play another scenario.

[@Saskiel]

I still come to this video like once per month, just to cry.. 😭😭

[@Avrahffxiv]

crying is good for you.

[@darkwolf1304]

damn it, no wonder the DPS aint been right, Ninjas are busy cutting onions...

[@RavenFFXIV]

I’ve watched this so many times I can almost play the entire video in my head when listening to the original song 😭 it’s so amazing!! I’m not sure what it is about the dancing scene that starts at 4:07 but for some reason it sticks out the most to me. (Sorry if this comment is a mess I’m struggling to find the right words to say about this video)

[@Avrahffxiv]

I love to hear you say you liked it so much!

[@Anharie]

I have seen the world through your eyes, I have walked in your footsteps, and i have borne your burdens, and i would do it a thousand times over to feel what you felt once more. your video was beautiful. i especially like the dancing parts. very well placed.

[@Haze_Zanazu]

Every time I watch this it makes me want to cry! You did such a good job capturing all of this, everything from ARR all the way to EDW, even the side content and the raids. I love it. Thank you.

[@Avrahffxiv]

im happy people enjoy rewatching it. Can't wait for the new patch in a few days :3

[@ZackUlric]

Even now i watch the video and can get every feeling and vibe ... Its probably the best video that i has watched ^^

[@animepabu5526]

Wow.. this is really amazing. I love how you also showed your WoL/D more and reflected upon their journey. I can tell you put a lot of effort and thought into this music video. The music also fits very well! I think if someone wanted to know what the games msq was like and the emotions it invokes this video would be it, because even without knowing the context behind the story I wholly believe anyone would understand how deep the game can be. 100/10

[@Avrahffxiv]

thanks for saying so. I never thought when i made it, it would resonate with as many people as it did.

[@ciricintra]

I just want to say keep up the good work from one FF14 creator to another

[@Avrahffxiv]

you as well!

[@celphalonred1999]

So perfect! Truly captures the emotions felt throughout this amazing journey, this was masterfully done.

[@Avrahffxiv]

very kind words. many thanks.

[@celphalonred1999]

@@Avrahffxiv of course :3

[@HarleyQuinnsEx]

I find myself coming back and watching this at least once a month

[@kimaclaret]

This is fantastic! Amazing job. I am so happy to have stumbled upon this today. Tears have fallen.

[@llKirosll]

Why do I even bother to have a heart, if it will be shreded to pieces over and over again... Beaultiful video.

[@Avrahffxiv]

thank you so much!

[@darkdavid28]

I watch your videos and I think to myself, I should play New Game + to see it all again. Then I ask myself if I truly have a desire to beat myself up emotionally with all the lose of those old friends. Thank you for this video and all the others.

[@williamkauffman3106]

I'm going to focus on the DRK glam you've now inspired in me. Not on how hard I'm sobbing and cheerint

[@Avrahffxiv]

YESS goo my son. THE EW relics are coming in 9 days too. I am excited for all that new sexy glam.

[@hopepetal]

Oh, this is lovely. I was brought to tears

[@Avrahffxiv]

thank you so much!

[@Avrahffxiv]

thank you so much for the kind words.

[@MrOniro1]

Watching this on the bus on my way to work . How dare you make me cry in public!!!

[@Cardcaptorsfan94]

This was an incredible video. Makes me think of how it was the first time I experienced it on my character Luna. Brings back the emotions as if I was going through the story for the first time. Well done! 10/10 ❤

[@lyndina8492]

Really loving it that you show that our WoL needs those "little" distraction (having fun, just dancing, bath partys,etc) to relax, or he would go mental against those gods we have to fight everytime.

[@Avrahffxiv]

i mean i dont even have to kill gods and i get anxious in traffic sometimes.

[@mechataku]

always love coming back to this video!

[@blakehubbard757]

Thank you for your amazing compilation video, its soo good, also.. thank you for introducing me to the artist of "Without you"

[@MeisterVivi]

I love your FFXIV Videos, i cant even tell how many times i watched this for example. I hope we see more from you at some Point.

[@Avrahffxiv]

im trying to make a DT one but it keeps drifting into absurdity.

[@MeisterVivi]

@@Avrahffxiv i can imagine, there was not much epic adventure or great story this time just unending information that are useless in the end thrown at us.

[@Avrahffxiv]

@@MeisterVivi i think i can cook something up but it won't definitely doesn't invoke the emotions of the other vids lol

[@aesir26]

This was amazing and honestly brought me to tears. I've shared your video with my friend as well because I know they'll love it just as much as I do.
