I so appreciate this, I just started this game two weeks ago and it is a little overwhelming.
-
Yes pls on an Astral/Umbral deep dive. We need our Aetherologist Masters.
-
Jesse: "leave a comment if you want a video abou-" Me: yes jesse, yes we want a video about that, in fact we want 2 videos about that
-
“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.
-
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.
-
Jesse: “I’m doing this like a history class!” Me: Has already forgotten his homework
-
This is a FANTASTIC introduction to the lore whilst remaining truthful and not spoiling any of the huge reveals. Excellent work Jesse! Looking forward to more!
-
For a moment, the "4" tripped me up because I was nodding along and did a double take when I didn't hear The Big Baddies being listed haha. When in doubt, blame them :')
-
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!
-
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! 😁
-
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!
-
holy shit, there's cleaaarly been times where the story has giving me like serious chills but the fact that i've played through it all and still get the goosebumps and feel like its the first time hearing it from a cliffnotes video on the lore.. ugh the story is so good man.
-
More. I need more. The feel of being taught to by someone with passion for the subject and for the profession of teaching is addictive to me.
-
It's at times like this that we can really see Jesse's teaching background rise up from the depths like Alexander.
-
Damn Jesse I really hope you continue these, I’m just starting now and this makes the lore SO much easier to digest! Love ya dude, excited to finally join you on Jenova!
-
I have watched this video multiple times .. and shared it with my friends ,,, I wish if you can continue this series ,, thanks a lot for this one ♥
-
As a long-time veteran of this game myself, this was a great refresher course. Can't wait for the other two :3
-
God listening to Jesse talk about a lore of a mmo it takes me back to way back when he used to do WoW lore videos.
-
Wow i love this i need more. We seriously need a good deep dive in to this game's lore that is complete and well narrated and you have gone above and beyond. Please keep going!
-
I love how you explain the entire history of fantasy XIV without spoiling anything and making it make sense to new players honestly I wish I watched this video when I first started playing as it would have given me better insight into things that happen later you are a true treasure
