I love this video! This is such a great idea. As you said, blending the love of the characters and drawing, is wonderful to watch. I love Yuna, especially in X-2 as a Gun mage. I also adore Yennefer from the Witcher 3 and I can imagine she'd look amazing being drawn by you. ❤
Great video Joe, a wonderful mashup of my two favourite things! There are a lot of highs in FFXIV, but I think my favourite parts are the slice of life moments. The way the little communities in the game expand as the game progresses really are a lovely breath of fresh air that contrast the heavier moments. Stopping for a drink with Gaz, reflecting on everything at the back end of the game sticks in my mind.
Again apologies wanted to comment on this sooner - particularly that I'm glad you seem to have found yourself at last with this series ^^ As for 16 and clive, the moment that stands out most to me is the final clash vs Bahamut in outer space because of just how wild that was. My favorite moment however, is when he and Jill are lying naked by the fire on the coast - and NOT because they're nude lol. But because that was just such a tender moment, and one I was waiting for the entire damn game like it was about damn time he made a move. And it's pretty rare in JRPGs to see such emotionally deep moments between love birds. Yeah there are romances all the time, but FF in particular almost never goes that deep with it. And then there's the ending...
My favorite moment of XVI is where a certain character finally gets what's coming for them, I think everyone did a great job on that scene, and was definitely a high point of the whole game (I say not having finished it because ADHD sucks)
Great Video, My go to moment for XVI is a spoiler so I won't say it but it's in the exact same vein as yours and it's down to Ben's performance, he makes Clive feel very human and that sticks with me. Love how the drawing turned out.
When I think of XVI, the moment that comes to mind instantly is the Bahamut fight, yes the game arguably has some issues and some parts of it go for a bit too long(I'm looking at you Mid), but I dont think anyone can say that the game isn't a visual spectacle. Bahamut, Titan and Ultima's fight are absolute visual delights that just elevate the game so much that you forget or almost disregard the weaker points of the game.
On top of your awesome drawing skills, I really enjoy your deep-dive into the character, both in and out of the game. I'm looking forward to more JArtPG videos!
It was fun to watch you speak about something you liked so much :) The art is great, as well. I could not comment without saying so ! As for the game itself... I did enjoy it, but that's it. I only enjoyed it. The gameplay was fun, and the story was okay. Actually, I loved the game way more during Cid's arc. His voice acting and character is peak to me, and I enjoyed the mysteries behind the game at that point. After that, it was more straightforward, and it lost a bit of interest for me. The pacing was verry MMOesque, and that's what killed it to me, like many players, I guess. There were too many optional quests, and for every main quest that was very interesting and got me hyped, the following would always be very casual and killed the vibe. That's one of those times where the game could have been half as long and be twice as good. But well, guess that's just my opinion. Talgor, though. I still love the boi. He's the best, and I love him so bad
