Yes. This is the moment in EW when you realize you have no clue where you're headed. You thought maybe Zodiark was the end boss. Nope. We're killing him NOW! So what are we doing for the rest of the expansion?? Continue. (Yes, he was Amon, remember...) Emperor Xande = of Allagan. Also seen in Crystal Tower. And the last note: Fandaniel/Amon knew what caused the Final Days. You will find out in due course. Patience.
I found Zenos to be my obsession of clearing highend content like savage raids and ultimates. And during MSQ isn't the time for that lol. But he awaits patiently until I am ready.
I think Zenos walking by was a nod to the scene in Shadowbringers when Elidibert walked past the Exarch attempting to get that sneaky instakill attack. And failed. You're sitting there wondering if Zenos will try something similar.
But no; such methods are beneath him. He will face you head on in a direct confrontation, when he - and only he - has your attention. Otherwise he simply can't be bothered.
I think Zenos' role in Endwalker, albeit minor, still contributes to the message this expansion is trying to deliver: to live is to suffer, yes. Nihilism is not completely without reason. But while embracing death is one path, another is to embrace the suffering that comes with living and find joy wherever we can. That joy will be that much greater for the suffering we endure to achieve it and will be worth all the pain in the end, no matter how short lived or fleeting said joy may be.
In this context, Zenos represents your apathetic counterpart, the one who lost all interest in living, who finds existence itself to be unbearably dull and devoid of meaning or happiness. Yet, even said apathetic counterpart still managed to find their own reason to exist and their own form happiness in you, the one who brings them excitement, makes them look forward to the next day, and rekindles the flame of their existence. He's a walking, breathing representation of the "to each their own" notion.
But though happiness and fulfillment can come in many shapes and forms, it should not trample all over other people's own happiness. That is why Zenos' pursuit, while understandable, remains unconscionable. It is why he had to be stopped. Ironically, stopping him is one way we may yet bring him his own fleeting moment of happiness, and that is what he wanted all along.
I think the fact that Zenos was always built as this individual who cares so little for being alive made him a perfect fit as a foil character in Endwalker. No matter how much I personally dislike him and would've preferred not having him at all in this expansion, I can't deny that he just _fits_ with its theme and that this is the right place for his character arc to finally conclude.
Welcome to Endwalker!!
3:46, Zenos be like: Curse your sudden yet inevitable betrayal!
Both Shadowbringers and Endwalker have so many cool twists and special moments that are so much fun to watch people react to. Endwalker is easily the most ambitious of the expansions in XIV and it's amazing how well it pulls off what it's set out to do. Hopefully you'll enjoy it all the way through!
The beat drop for Endcaller is still one of the peak moments in gaming. So much buildup, over years of playing, to peak in those opening notes as Zodiark is revealed.
Everyone has the same reaction at this point in the story; we're all like, wait, Zodiark is the final boss, why are we hearing boss music now? Wait, we're doing this NOW!?
What time do you typically play? Really wanting to join you as you end your journey. Finished myself a few months ago. And want to join other WoL on their journey
