It's a slower version of Answers, sung by the utterly amazing Susan Calloway.

Yeah, I am now a fan of hers :)

Louisoix: You shall not pass!

Bahamut: LOL! O.K. I'm going to the fridge and get some delicious cake.

They really be able to produce outstanding Videos.

Afair the song is in the original FF XIV intro video also.

What a sad trailer. Anyone knows who that badass wizard is, who went toe to toe with Bahamut?

Probably he was the Human representation of Althyk the Keeper (God of Time and Space in FFXVI) because when all gods tried to seal Bahamuth again, Louisoix uses this god symbol, a hourglass.

I have played all Final Fantasy Games, and since FFVII and VIII i had not this feeling of... depth in a Square-Enix CGI Video..

Could be probably coz FFXIV is now ruled by youngs, not these old whales from ancients games like Tanaka.

Wow...this just tops the SWTOR CGI trailers.

I mean .. wow .. can't believe this is actually better tha Blur's production.

To give a little context: just gonna repost what I messaged to a friend who wanted to know WTF was going on in the vid:

in XIV 1.0 theres an empire, which is a nation of anti-deity fanatics, and this one crazy general who leads them. he summons to earth this meteor to kill the deity worshiping nations who oppose the empire (everyone else, basically). at the end of 1.0 you kill the general but it's too late, the meteor is still coming. this gandalf like guy named louisoux (a recurring character) tells you that your only hope of stopping it is to pray to the 12 gods (deities) in hopes they will save you. so everyone did for like 1 month leading up to the end, and there were quests/events focused around that.

in the video: there was this final confrontation between the good guys and empire before the meteor hit. a last stand of sorts. right before the meteor hits, turns out it was a prison for bahamut who then proceeds to nuke everything basically. gandalf guy tries to summon the 12 gods (the blue symbols) and reseal bahamut using the accumulated power of prayer, but this fails. using the last bit of prayer power he transports those good guys on the battlefield to safety/or to 5 years in the future (gandalf guy is closely aligned with the deity of time and space). the world is basically left in ruins with survivors in the cities, but a lot of people died. as for what happens next... well, we'll see! ~FIN~

Thank you for the link!

I literally cry whenever I watch something that seems amazing to me. The visuals, powers used in combination with music...simply kills me. 

Square Enix still pumps out amazing CG cut scenes so this clip doesn't come as a surprise to me. 

I was typing out some questions but OnionThief answered exactly what was I curious about. Thank you!

Np. It was even more emotional for those of us who played through the preceeding story for 1.5 or so years. Watching your efforts fail has a huge, forgive the pun, impact.

I would have been devastated! 

I was wondering about Louisoix being so overpowered absolutely no-one on that battlefield was able to lend him a hand during the final moments right before Bahamut goes all "lololol, fail." Damn.

Yeah, I guess he would seem OP if you didn't know the connection, haha. We know for sure that he was deeply connected to the god of time and space. Some people speculate he may have even been the god in human form... I guess we'll find out in time.
