Honestly I find it kind of sad and tragic. Everyone related to the death of his sister is dead, yet instead of seeing reason he was too far lost in his hate to redeem. I had to sit there for a minute before doing the trial to let everything sink in. Then Endwalker revealed he could have turned out like Vrtra if he just let go
@@nepspartan-7597 to be fair, the thing with ratatoskr was long over, sure... but his eyes are still being misused by his sister's murderers and their descendants, so of course he can't just let go of his anger vrtra meanwhile, are on good term with his people, never betrayed or anything. and he also still have hope that his sister is alive, just trapped in the void his situation is infinitely better than nidhogg's

RIP Haurchefant, I know he said a smile better suits a hero but I can't tell you how much I was crying through that smile man. I still cry when I hear this song.
this song is mind blowing to me. i cant think of another huge climactic boss fight with somber music like this. normally the music makes you feel like you are at the climax of a great war or battle. where a hero will triumph. but this song reminds you that you are at the climax of a tragedy.
The opening notes of Dragonsong always threaten to bring a few tears to my eye, thinking about the Final Steps of Faith. You aren't fighting a villain or saving a princess, you're putting down a mad dog. Someone so consumed with their grief and hate that they've lost themselves.
This video autoplayed for me after not having played the game for several months. Hearing it, a profound sadness washed over me. I loved this game so very much, as well as those I was lucky enough to have played it with. Most of those people have left my life at this point, and I miss them dearly. Please appreciate those who deign to share their time with you while you are still able.
I always thought this was the actual non-primal shiva speaking to the people of ishgard and dravania wishing that they would stop fighting each other and have a peace and we did that for her
That cutscene on that bridge is still one of my favourites in the entire game. Hraesvelgr lending us his eye, the WoL slowly walking towards it's radiant light and forward to face Nidhogg one final time. I believe I stood there for at least 15 minutes, just to take in the atmosphere. I didn't even que for his battle yet, I didn't want this moment to be interrupted. FF14's music is a cut above the rest. Such a wide variety of feelings being stirred by this amazing soundtrack. I am currently playing the whole game again with a new character and I can't wait to reach Heavensward again.
I just completed it not too long ago on my second adventure through the game. Thought that, since I knew what was coming, it wouldn't hit as hard. I was wrong.
Yeah, that walk is probably still my favourite WoL moment even up until present day. The resolve in their walk, and that glare to Nidhogg at the end of it. Even if the WoL wasn't effectively a silent protagonist most of the time, it feels like a place where they wouldn't speak. No words, no cries of emotion. Just a face that says all it needs to Nidhogg: "Bring it". That little sequence just *perfectly* captures the feelings the cutscenes before it had been trying to build in the player, and really channels how the player is probably feeling at that exact moment through their character.
I beat Nidhogg recently and... god, the music really sold it to me. It really gave that feel of an era of blood, violence, war, and pain finally coming to its end to usher in a time of peace, to rekindle the bond between man and dragon that was severed in a time long past. A song worthy to be the theme of the vengeful shade of Nidhogg. Thordan might be when base Heavensward ends, but Nidhogg to me is the REAL ending to Heavensward.
Endwalker is good but HW was so great from the moment you arrive at Ishgard. I always feel teary when I see the scene of Alphinaud Tataru and WoL walking into Ishgard.
I saw Susan Calloway performed this at Distant Worlds in Singapore last night. Hearing it live with the full orchestra and choir is really a different and wonderful experience.
I loved this song as it played while I waited for the matchmake to find a group for the trial. It was such an epic moment, standing there on the bridge after all that had happened; not just the cutscene, the entire expansion. It was a momentous and awesome climax. It was then I realized this game lived up to the hype.
Still one of my favorites FF14 songs and story. And a warning of being in the right and not being able to forgive can lead to destruction. Rest in peace Nidhogg.
I sat there on that bridge for a solid 10 minutes waiting for queue to pop just listening to this song on repeat. I was kind of on the fence about the game, but this whole storyline and the resolution had me hooked. The way the music keeps playing when you transition into the fight was what sold me on it. It's a small thing, but it's the kind of detail that sticks with you. I still get hype every time Final Steps of Faith comes up in the trials roulette. It was my favorite fight until Seat of Sacrifice.
Normally the music for the final boss of an arc makes you feel like a hero, like you *personally* are the reason things are going to be better. This song is not one of those. It is people working together and mending rifts to put down the dragon equivalent of a mad dog. There is no joy when the fight is over, no celebration. Just relief, that a thousand years of madness has finally ended.
For like over 15 minutes of matchmaking for the trial even though i was a tank, i just stood facing him with one single thought, to get rid of this embodiment of rage and hatred. Being a dragon or man, it didn't matter, Nidhogg had to go. And goddamn was i as hell bent as Alphinaud on saving Estinien, and then to see our king of bros Haurchefant and Ysayle one last time... After that part of the story and having my perfect job through Dark Knight i knew i had found my game.
... You are right, my friend. Not one more. Not another friend will die in this cursed war. This is not your place to fall, Dragoon. Haurchefant... Ysayle... My friends... Thank you.
I just yesterday cleared this with my paladin. What a beautiful score of music. As I shouted on my paladins honor to not fail, I charged into the fray with fellow adventurers to end the sorrow between dragon and man.
one doesnt know true satisfaction until you watch someone beat double dragons and you hear "a pain without cease" to the Dragon King Thordan transformation
For being the first expansion, this song is forever engrained into my mind (in a good way)... It's insane how good this song is, and it's still my favorite for sure.
"Niddhog! Win or lose... For those whom gave their lives...This millennium long war ends here and now!!" ~Me confronting Niddhogs Shade at the Final battle of the Dragonsong war.
Ffxiv almost lost me with arr but my friends told me about how great Heavensward is and im so happy that i stuck it out. I sat on the bridge listening to this reflecting on the journey I’ve had through this experience. I would say im very addicted to the game and im so looking forward to the next adventure! “A smile better suits a hero…”
Hope you didn't let Stormblood deter you from going on, Shadowbringers is worth the downs SB has. ShB and HW are rightfully the top picks for most people.
Nidhogg is the antagonist. But i genuinely felt bad to put him to rest. He was a leader, proud dragon that want to defend his kind, but King Thordan betrayal break his trust completely.
Incredible song. 1st Time heatinh it, june 18th 2024. It just touched my heart, my god, never touches the game but what emotions. Beautiful. Man, i suscribe. Whatever content you make. You make me discover a masterpiece. Thank you😊😢
even years after the end of the expansion i get the chills when i hear that song, and remember how my WoL stood there in front of Nidhogg, and then it started playing. That moment is branded into my memories forever.
This song is without a doubt my favourite in FFXIV so far, and might be one of my favourites in games ever. The absolute chills this gives, what a voice
There’s not greater power move than staring down Nidhog for 30 minutes while doing the Manderville. Let him experience the power of your Gentlemanly Aura.
Nidhogg you can finally rest knowing that first we avenge your sister but it saddens me to end you because you can't let your rage go and went after everyone else who wasn't involved with thordan evil. Fighting you was the hardest decision we ever did but what you did to your brother child I can't forgive you for that and awakened my rage on you! So this will be our last Stand And our true final battle! And to rescue a friend from your vengeance! Rest In Peace nidhogg the war is over
This song is honestly speaking to my soul, it isn’t that different from what we are seeing in todays world. Were they trying to tell us something? The world is in darkness right now. “Echoes of the truth that once ranged clear.” This like gives me the chills.
Finishing the cutscene just before the Final Steps of Faith, re-zoning to see Nidhogg before you patiently waiting, wreathed in flame.... that was the last moment in a game that legitimately made me GUSH. Just, "OHMYGODTHATLOOKSSOCOOOOOOOOOL...!"
Heavensward is truly critically acclaimed, and I was so happy I finally reached it through the sloppy ARR speed. I am still sad its the shortest expansion if we count MSQ missions :( But its so good❤
This hits harder after the moogle tribe quests cus they let you understand and ruminate on what was lost and the perspective of the dragons besides the great wyrms
My only reason for being like "I understand, but c'mon man." was destroyed when my friend reminded me that since he is an eternal being, and of the first brood, the time since his wifes death was essentially the equivalent of like a couple of years to him. Beautiful song, and such a sad sad story. Glad I stopped treating this game like Runescape.
I recently watched your video on how you saved your channel from it being deactivated due to copyright strikes, and in the video you mention that Dragonsong, Answers and Revolution are songs that are one-way-ticket to getting your channel banned from RUclips due to a complicated rights ownership. So, I have to ask, how is this song still on your channel if it is among those complicated three songs that will get your channel banned for sure?
They updated the material usage license and removed the restrictions for the three songs. They probably have the rights to those songs now- I uploaded my vids right after

I'm sorry but DFXIV peaked with Heavensward. The dragons, the story, the atmosphere , the fact that the council turned out to be the Knights of the Round table. Everything about heavensward felt like a proper Final
Heavensward is one of the best FF story I've played for sure. I think it went downhill in Stormblood before getting back to the same level of HW in Shadowbringers (some would argue ShB is better). Then we have the big disappointment of Endwalker; a controversial opinion. So I guess it peaked, went down, got back to the same peak, then went down again. Lets see how Dawntrails fare, but I don't have high expectations
Spoilers Could you really blame nidhogg for what he did the betrayal and loss he must have felt for what man did they killed his sister and took her eyes by force if anything his anger is justified I feel bad in his grief he let his anger and rage take over but in the end he would never let that anger go till ever man was dead so it was necessary to kill him and end of the dragonsong war just wish there was another way or his soul finally found peace
While I understand why he started the war and even fully agree, he should have stopped after all the perpetrators were dead. Instead he let his anger fully take over him and kept the war going with the descendants that have nothing to do with it and don't even know anything. They just see that the dragon wants to kill them. Nidhogg basically became a rabid animal that had to be put down, broken and stuck in the past.
Dragons have long memories though. To us it happened ages ago. The perpetrators have long since turned to dust. To a dragon - who lives probably hundreds of times the lifespan of the average Hyur and therefore has a completely different perception of the passage of time - this transgression was carried out basically just a couple of months ago at most. They are still pissed as if it just happened. You also have to factor in that Nidhogg deliberately drew the Ishgardians into a generations-spanning war. The king who slew the first dragon kept the reason for the war a secret. So all the common Ishgardian knows is that dragons are the sworn enemy of Ishgard, just attacking theme for no reason, and that they have an eternal feud. Nidhogg single-handedly molded a culture whose sole purpose was to draw him and dragonkind into battle after battle, just so he could cull them and then let them repopulate and then cull them again, so on and so forth. The writers did a phenomenal job conveying that the fury and the grief of a dragon are not just emotions, but actual forces of nature.
@@mujiha doesn't matter they still tried to cover it up and act innocent like they did nothing wrong not even the people knew the full story and where probably fed some bs how the dragons turned on them all to keep there succession of power going until we the warrior of light with help find out the truth of there wrong doing all that bloodshed by both man and dragon that needed not be spilled in the name of power and ruling over ishgard which was a led by deceit silencing anyone that found out the truth and not until the the events of heavensward that one man dared stand up and question the war with the dragons and find out the wrong doings of the church yes nidhogg had to be put down an unfortunate consequence maybe if he could be reached and reasoned with earlier in the war by bringing the murderers of his sister to justice maybe he could have been reached and the dragonsong war stopped I stand by nidhogg a villain made to do what he did out of sorrow and grief for a wrongly murderer member of his family

That bolt was meant for us, yet he took it for us! For those we have lost, for those we can yet save, thank you for your sacrifice Haurchefant! 😭😭😭
this song is mind blowing to me. i cant think of another huge climactic boss fight with somber music like this. normally the music makes you feel like you are at the climax of a great war or battle. where a hero will triumph.
but this song reminds you that you are at the climax of a tragedy.
I can think of one: the final bosses from Dark Souls 1 and 3
The opening notes of Dragonsong always threaten to bring a few tears to my eye, thinking about the Final Steps of Faith. You aren't fighting a villain or saving a princess, you're putting down a mad dog. Someone so consumed with their grief and hate that they've lost themselves.

I always thought this was the actual non-primal shiva speaking to the people of ishgard and dravania wishing that they would stop fighting each other and have a peace and we did that for her
It is her song, asking both sides to let go of hate and embrace the love she once shared with elezen and dragonkind
I always thought it was from Ratatoskr's perspective hence why at the end she says she'll never know because she's dead :)
@@whodis3489 I mean that could be the case, shiva is dead too

Dammit, why's my ocular units always spring a leak at moments like this?
Thanks for opening wounds that were just healing 😢 I cried like a baby when he appeared to help 😭
I was saying to him "No! Don't leave me!"
I fake screamed his name as if I was my character when he passed.
The complete tone shift, the ever-winding intrigue, the setting...
Endwalker may be the best expansion, but Heavensward will always be my favorite.
Endwalker the best? Nah, SHB and HS are still better
Endwalker is not the best expansion at all, lol. SHB and HS are much better.
Endwalker? mid at best - SHB and HW is where the gold is.
Shadowbringers easily. Endwalker was quite bad imo.
These replies are wild
That's the dragonsong, the song of Nidhoggr's pain and rage and grief.
For the loss of his dear ratatoskr may they both finally find rest
I'm crying now....stay strong, my friends
Don't cry. A smile better fits a hero. 🥺
THOU ART STRONG, MORTAL
I'm with you. The dragonsong war was so gripping and sad. Still haven't completely got past it emotionally.
I'm crying tooo. Is okay to Not be strong.
lets cry togather!!❤️
I always do to this and Answers. Remember we are all in this together and we are not alone. ❤

MY MITIGATIONS AREN'T HELPING
One of the best expansion that ever graced Final Fantasy universe

It was such an epic moment, standing there on the bridge after all that had happened; not just the cutscene, the entire expansion. It was a momentous and awesome climax. It was then I realized this game lived up to the hype.
Still one of my favorites FF14 songs and story.
And a warning of being in the right and not being able to forgive can lead to destruction. Rest in peace Nidhogg.
I still can't move on from this beautiful song. IMO one of the best song in FF series
I sat there on that bridge for a solid 10 minutes waiting for queue to pop just listening to this song on repeat. I was kind of on the fence about the game, but this whole storyline and the resolution had me hooked. The way the music keeps playing when you transition into the fight was what sold me on it. It's a small thing, but it's the kind of detail that sticks with you.
I still get hype every time Final Steps of Faith comes up in the trials roulette. It was my favorite fight until Seat of Sacrifice.
Normally the music for the final boss of an arc makes you feel like a hero, like you *personally* are the reason things are going to be better. This song is not one of those. It is people working together and mending rifts to put down the dragon equivalent of a mad dog. There is no joy when the fight is over, no celebration. Just relief, that a thousand years of madness has finally ended.

embrasing that quivver and jusing it at the rite moments as you sing. now that is a powerfull abilety :D you shoud try and master it :D
Ah, it looks like it's beginning to rain.
Nice reference
"...A misguided fool who dreamt of peace..." idk why but this one line really hits me hard
one doesnt know true satisfaction until you watch someone beat double dragons and you hear "a pain without cease" to the Dragon King Thordan transformation
first time i got there my heart was moving so fast i nearly fainted. its been over 2 years and i still remember the feeling
This song hit home... Oh man
Thank you for everything Ysayle and Haurchefant, I will carry your will forward and I will not betray the trust you put in me!
For being the first expansion, this song is forever engrained into my mind (in a good way)... It's insane how good this song is, and it's still my favorite for sure.
Now that was a final boss.
I still feel shivers and goosebumps when I get the Final Steps of Faith in roullette and this song starts playing...

Nidhogg is the antagonist. But i genuinely felt bad to put him to rest. He was a leader, proud dragon that want to defend his kind, but King Thordan betrayal break his trust completely.

I usually listen to this song when I'm congested. I know I'm gonna sob the cold out...
Song is beautiful and i like most others shedded tears when i saw the ghosts of two elfs helping us save estinien after the nidhogg fight
I cry every time.
even years after the end of the expansion i get the chills when i hear that song, and remember how my WoL stood there in front of Nidhogg, and then it started playing. That moment is branded into my memories forever.

Sweet home alabama
A war for revenge, a conflict fueled by the tears of the losts souls. A hope for a change.
I'm yes finally! ty ty ty! I wanted you to make this one for so long!
This song is without a doubt my favourite in FFXIV so far, and might be one of my favourites in games ever. The absolute chills this gives, what a voice

There’s not greater power move than staring down Nidhog for 30 minutes while doing the Manderville. Let him experience the power of your Gentlemanly Aura.

Fighting you was the hardest decision we ever did but what you did to your brother child I can't forgive you for that and awakened my rage on you!
So this will be our last Stand
And our true final battle!
And to rescue a friend from your vengeance!

You are not alone!
god what a fucking great expansion
truly, everything about it was amazing.
Finishing the cutscene just before the Final Steps of Faith, re-zoning to see Nidhogg before you patiently waiting, wreathed in flame.... that was the last moment in a game that legitimately made me GUSH. Just, "OHMYGODTHATLOOKSSOCOOOOOOOOOL...!"
One word: Beautiful
It's the year of the dragon...
Heavensward is truly critically acclaimed, and I was so happy I finally reached it through the sloppy ARR speed. I am still sad its the shortest expansion if we count MSQ missions :(
But its so good❤
SLOPPY!
This song makes me emotional
This hits harder after the moogle tribe quests cus they let you understand and ruminate on what was lost and the perspective of the dragons besides the great wyrms
Im convinced this song was sung by a angel sent from heaven
I’ll just cry until I fall asleep now. New game plus broke me bad
8 years and i'm still not over his death T.T
I know, Nidrog was a great villain.😊
beautiful
My WoL just walking forward…
Then it’s… Post-Vault stress disorder part 2… 😢
After that… the respect for the first-brood finally being free…
Rest in peace....Nidhogg...
Your fight is over....
Feel sorry for him.
My only reason for being like "I understand, but c'mon man." was destroyed when my friend reminded me that since he is an eternal being, and of the first brood, the time since his wifes death was essentially the equivalent of like a couple of years to him.
Beautiful song, and such a sad sad story. Glad I stopped treating this game like Runescape.

I'm sorry but DFXIV peaked with Heavensward. The dragons, the story, the atmosphere , the fact that the council turned out to be the Knights of the Round table. Everything about heavensward felt like a proper Final
Heavensward is one of the best FF story I've played for sure. I think it went downhill in Stormblood before getting back to the same level of HW in Shadowbringers (some would argue ShB is better). Then we have the big disappointment of Endwalker; a controversial opinion. So I guess it peaked, went down, got back to the same peak, then went down again. Lets see how Dawntrails fare, but I don't have high expectations
To be honest Nidhogg's rage was justified. The length of it wasn't.
Spoilers
Could you really blame nidhogg for what he did the betrayal and loss he must have felt for what man did they killed his sister and took her eyes by force if anything his anger is justified I feel bad in his grief he let his anger and rage take over but in the end he would never let that anger go till ever man was dead so it was necessary to kill him and end of the dragonsong war just wish there was another way or his soul finally found peace
While I understand why he started the war and even fully agree, he should have stopped after all the perpetrators were dead. Instead he let his anger fully take over him and kept the war going with the descendants that have nothing to do with it and don't even know anything. They just see that the dragon wants to kill them. Nidhogg basically became a rabid animal that had to be put down, broken and stuck in the past.
Dragons have long memories though. To us it happened ages ago. The perpetrators have long since turned to dust. To a dragon - who lives probably hundreds of times the lifespan of the average Hyur and therefore has a completely different perception of the passage of time - this transgression was carried out basically just a couple of months ago at most. They are still pissed as if it just happened. You also have to factor in that Nidhogg deliberately drew the Ishgardians into a generations-spanning war. The king who slew the first dragon kept the reason for the war a secret. So all the common Ishgardian knows is that dragons are the sworn enemy of Ishgard, just attacking theme for no reason, and that they have an eternal feud. Nidhogg single-handedly molded a culture whose sole purpose was to draw him and dragonkind into battle after battle, just so he could cull them and then let them repopulate and then cull them again, so on and so forth. The writers did a phenomenal job conveying that the fury and the grief of a dragon are not just emotions, but actual forces of nature.
@@mujiha doesn't matter they still tried to cover it up and act innocent like they did nothing wrong not even the people knew the full story and where probably fed some bs how the dragons turned on them all to keep there succession of power going until we the warrior of light with help find out the truth of there wrong doing all that bloodshed by both man and dragon that needed not be spilled in the name of power and ruling over ishgard which was a led by deceit silencing anyone that found out the truth and not until the the events of heavensward that one man dared stand up and question the war with the dragons and find out the wrong doings of the church yes nidhogg had to be put down an unfortunate consequence maybe if he could be reached and reasoned with earlier in the war by bringing the murderers of his sister to justice maybe he could have been reached and the dragonsong war stopped I stand by nidhogg a villain made to do what he did out of sorrow and grief for a wrongly murderer member of his family
@@mujihathank you someone that gets it what ishgard did was messed up to anyone with any sense of logic
The best expansions have been those where the final boss has a justified reason for his actions but must be stopped due to how far they went.
