Welcome back to Tiny Blue Games! My name is Csaw or Chris, and we are rewatching the FFXIV ShadowBringers Expansion trailer, a trailer that originally convinced me to try out the game. What has changed? Well, I've now played through the entire base game, Heavensward, and Stormblood... plus it's been a few years since my original watch. Let's see if I take away any new information now that I am watching it with context.
As a relatively new ffxiv player, I have enjoyed giving my first impressions of the many different pieces of content this game has to offer. If you are interested in exploring the game yourself I suggest you check out the Final Fantasy 14 free trial. This trial lets play all the way to level 60 (including both the base ARR and Heavensward expansion), with no time restrictions. It was ultimately the free trial that convinced me to dive into the full game!
👀 So... what did I get wrong?

Can say for certainty you will be in for a ride and a half Chris! I certainly hope you enjoy the story and the journey!
I so excited to see where things go. It feels like I've been waiting to start this expansion for so long haha. It's finally time! Thanks for watching and commenting
Your predictions for this expansion are truly... something to behold.
I think you picked up on most of the details that you're meant to understand at this point. The cat girl's name is Y'shtola, and you did catch that Urianger called her Matoya, but didn't realize that that isn't her name. This caused endless amounts of speculation in the community leading up to the Shadowbringers release.
There is an interesting fact about the angel you see the Warrior of Light fighting throughout the trailer, as well as the lion that Thancred fights, that you would only know if you had done an optional level 60 Heavensward dungeon called The Lost City of Amdapor (Hard). The second and third bosses of this dungeon look identical to these two enemies. I'm not going to explain any more than that, but as you might expect this also fueled a ton of speculation.
Oh my god, you are right! He totally called Y'shtola by the wrong name and I just went with it. I have no idea what this means... unless when they get their souls back they aren't necessarily returned to the right body? That sounds confusing to keep track of haha.
As for the tips about The Lost City of Amdapor... I now have another item on my ever growing list of ""FFXIV Content I need to complete one day"! Very interesting details. Thanks for sharing
It's very interesting to go back and see someone theorizing about the trailer again - Shadowbringers really turned a whole lot of things upside down (in a good way).
When the trailer released and we saw Master Matoya/Y'shtola, as well as Minfilia people went crazy trying to figure everything out.
I'm super looking forward to seeing you react as things develop and are revealed to you once you begin playing!
That's really exciting to hear. I think the Minfilia name drop was the biggest shock for me, it wasn't even on my radar and then boom we are talking about a character that we haven't dealt with in for what seems like forever. I'm very excited to see how her story progresses! Thanks for watching and commenting
It's always fun to see the trailer and then unpacking all the little details. Interesting theories on where we're going! Time will tell what happens next! Look forward to seeing it!
I can't wait to see what happens! Thanks for watching and comment
We're finally here!
Your speculations about what Shadowbringers will be about were very interesting. Of course, there's only one way to find out for sure :)
We are! I'm so excited to jump in and see actually happens. I feel like I'll most likely be wrong with most of my predictions, but it really feels like anything is possible with the scope of this expansion. We'll have to see!
Thanks for joining me on this journey
Amdapor city's backstory involves a war between WHMs and BLMs, in a sidequest you unlock a dng where you face 2 bosses, one shares the model of the angel and the other the model of the lion.
Also, HW raid involves timetravel and StB "outer space"
You are the second person to mention the Amdapor dungeon... this means I will certainly need to check it out at some point. And you are so right, I can't believe I forgot about the Alexander raid when I was theorizing time travel! Thanks for watching and commenting
"Was she communicating with him?"
Yes. Yes she was. In that he was right there. Talking to her. With words. They are in the same place.
There's no need to worry! This trailer confused everyone who saw it when it came out, but that is kinda on purpose. They learned their lesson on not posting spoilers in their trailers thanks to the Heavensward trailer spoiling something extremely major from post-ARR.
You have no idea of what to expect, but once you really get going into Shadowbringers, all of the details will start falling into place. Enjoy the ride!
Always interesting seeing people theorycraft off the back of trailers, etc. This was a fun watch. I did want to clarify something though, the subject of Time Travel is raised during Heavensward raid series - Note: I am neither confirming nor denying Shadowbringers having anything to do with time travel, just that the game world lore does allow for it.
Great video, subbed. Would recommend the alexander raids if you havnt done them, its a good 'Time'.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! And oh my god, I can't believe I forgot about the Alexander raids when talking about time travel theories! Thank you for reminding me. I guess anything is possible haha. Thanks for watching and commenting
I really don't care for yt reaction videos but you are one of the few exceptions.
(and loved the "cat girl who can see aether". Very accurate)
This was great! Your theories are really interesting. Excited for you to find out what is actually happening :)
The little gremlin thing is literally just that. They show up as enemies in a few dungeons and just mutter discouraging things at you. some of them give a debuff called Misery which can be removed by another player using the /comfort emote on you :D
Yes, it's true we can't swap classes mid fight in the game. Which is why I love the detail in this trailer. The "angel" keeps destroying the WOL's equipped weapon. Since you must have a weapon equipped he just gets another one out of his armoury. And since your class is determined by what weapon you have equipped SWOOSH he changes class. I love how it even plays the class change sound effect. Fortunately for us, gear in game gets damaged but can't be destroyed. Would suck if you were running a dungeon and your tank, who always forgets to repair, suddenly becomes a squishy BLM when his axe breaks lol.
Oh that's a very interesting detail! I definitely didn't put it together with the weapon getting destroyed but it makes a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing this detail and watching
Technically Elidibus in Zenos’s body, but yes.
I can safely say you will learn more about Aether. And the "Who's Who". I was very confused when I saw the trailer - Y'shtola being called "Master Matoya", and trying to figure out where that burning forest is. I'm a resident of Gridania so.... I'm like "NO NOT THE TWELVESWOOD!" but... ah
Right! I feel like I have a million more questions than I did before watching the trailer haha. I'm so excited to see where the the story goes. Thanks for watching and commenting Sonic
The Shadowbringers trailer was definitely a question-raising one. Everyone didn't know what everything was supposed to mean and there were all kinds of speculation because it was so incongruous to what we knew at the time.
I will say you should watch the trailer again after completing the 5.0 MSQ, because a LOT of stuff becomes clear.
During the angel fight you change jobs in the order of the expansions titular jobs
ah yes... Matoya. You know? The Miqote *smiles*
It's always fun to watch you theorizing over these! Shadowbringers is a very good expansion. I hope you enjoy it!
You're so cool, I love your commentary!
Thanks for the kind words. You're cool!
Thanks for watching
Buckle up.
Buckled. Thanks for watching
🤐
This community is so good about not spoiling anything. I love it.
Thanks for watching
All you need to know about thancred prior to shadowbringers. Thancred is/was in love with minfelia. She died/merged with mommy hydalin back in heavensward post msq msq.
She is back...but she looks a bit younger for some reason.
She died at the conclusion of the warriors of darkness quest chain.
Clarification: Thancred wasn't ever in love with Minfillia, like spousal love. He saw her as a daughter, though it took a little time after being behind the cause of her original father's death back in 1.0.
Ah, it was in the post-Heavensward MSQ that we saw her last then! I was trying to remember when we last saw Minfilia. Thank you for sharing these details. I'm still very confused on how we get from the last quest chain we saw her in to her running in what looks like a new body with Thancred... but I guess I'll find out in time! Thanks for watching
Thanks for the clarification, and for watching
