A shortened version of the speech from Emet in the Shadowbringer's MSQ, for Patreon supporter: Bijou ♥ I haven't watched the original cutscene in a very long time and I thought I would challenge myself by adapting it from memory. Needless to say, this was really fun to do, and I clearly put more effort into animating Emet than anyone else here because, let's be fair, he always steals the show 😎 If you're interested in an animation request, please check out our Patreon page! www.patreon.com/ureshiiiiii
Emet really does. He's such a beautifully tragic "villain". Expertly written in almost every way in the Shadowbringers and on expansions. His character will forever spoil me for what a "good villain" is in videogames.
Hi i found and like your very nice vids, i love your artstyle, its so beautiful, ..and i would like to kindly ask: is it allowed to use your miku/anime-shader video material for "video remixes" (not the final fantasy ones) and show it online as well (by giving credits). Of course with completely different music, because that would be the purpose. Music mainly from Europe and America, and of course the scenes were completely shifted. Its like the ones of the Channel "T WORD REMIX" (if you remember him), .. and Of course i would mention you in the channel (Credits and Linking). Even with Splash-Screen in the "Target Video". .. Examples you can see on my Channel. It's just a private hobby and i dont have the CPU power to render my own MMDs, and i doesn't make any money from youtube channel. Due to RUclipss copyright policy this is impossible anyway :-). there would be no harm to you. Pls write me here, or just comment your permission wording in one of my videos. even if you are against it, please write me briefly. At least that way I know that the message was sent correctly by the server. Kind regards, Much Love
How do you create your animations? I currently only work with Blender for my animations, however I was wondering if there's something with a better workflow for FFXIV specifically. Looks like a pain in the butt to pull models and textures from ffxiv.
This is fantastic. So much added powerful emotion within the micro-expressions. If the ingame cutscenes were physically as good as the already amazing voice acting, good grief, FFXIV would be unstoppable.
They were in 1.x but the cutscenes had two major flaws, anytime a player was viewing a cutscene it was basically loaded for all currently online players or something like that and they were pretty much too good. Fully animated and all cutscenes had voice acting as well if i remember correctly(probably not)
@@rinnnnnnnnnnrinRinOnishi I don't know about the technical load, but the issue with how they were made is they took too many resources. Using motion capture instead of more general animations took a lot if resources so few cutscenes.
@@player554 I think what they mean is that the cutscene animations themselves would be more akin to what we’re used to seeing from Final Fantasy, and a lot of the numbered games after 11 have *phenomenal* cutscenes
I seriously wish the scene actually played out like this with full animations, not just emotes strung together. Even the beats and timing of the angels, the perspectives and the live reactions of the scions made it all feel such more... real. Freaking good ass job!
@@Chippaization I mean covid really skyrocketed server prices for both obtaining and manufacturing new ones. Of course the servers now are really good for the most part(better than destiny 2 that's for sure) but it would take quite a long time to implement fully animated cutscenes into the whole game(where needed)
@@Chippaizationhey’re a business first and foremost. They’re not going to spend tens of thousands extra on a dedicated animation studio for cutscenes that’ll inevitably slow down the release schedule considerably when the current formula has been working well for the last decade. That’s not even getting into the tedious internal business politics of FFXIV being worked on by one team of many, all vying for their own budgets, wage increases, new projects, etc. As it currently stands FFXIV is stable profits, they know how much they need to put in to earn more, rather than spend that money on the same game that’s unlikely to see much of a return relative to the cost of investment they instead use the money to fund other projects that are more risky but have the potential of becoming another pillar of the company.
If I recall, one of the bigger issues of 1.0 is that emotes and cutscenes were actually being mo-capped. Going back, you can definitely see where some of the cutscenes have more life. But that causes issues of its own, cost being only one of them.
Emet Selch is probably one of the most memorable RPG villains of all time. Not because he has a grand plan, and can calculate every possibility. Not because he's insanely powerful. And not even because he's an effectively an immortal evil bent on world destruction. It's just that in the end, he's reasonable. He and the Ascians are ultimately what the Scions would be if the world were ended, and they were given only one possible option to bring it back to what it once was. And in the end that he was once a heroic individual whose deeds were very similar to the Warrior of Light's. The ultimate difference is he watched his world end, and sees a shadow of what could be. There are plenty of 'final boss battles' in RPGs. Most are meant to ultimately feel like a great triumph over an evil that threatened everything. But when you take down Emet Selch, and he begins fading away... it's a hollow victory. There is no sense of triumph. No sense of you've done the heroic thing by taking down a great evil. Just a longing for another way, and his final words.
Literally my favorite character and I feel with his lost memories he is a completely different person. Calculated and dedicated to what is presented. We need him brought back.
Because every villian in ff14 has a reason and its anchored in emotional reality that allows you to understand where they were coming from in the beginning, and the bitter end. This is it, the bitter, bitter end... - Dagoth Ur
Ascians are by no means reasonable. In ancient times, they were communists. Following that at the first sign of trouble, they all decided to collectively kill themselves instead of moving to another planet. Those who didn't did things like shatter reality and plunge everything they could touch into anarchy whenever possible.
I refused so badly fighting him, I did not want to fight him at all, hoping that we will meet in the middle somehow. I relatated to him on such a deep personal level, I was crying when he was fading away. After learning everything during Shadowbringers, I just couldn't see him as a villan anymore. It has made me only so much more happier and appreciative of his appearance later on in patches and Endwalker.
You brought out the emotion in this scene, Emet is not a vile evil man, he's a hurt man who's lost everything he loves and holds dear to him. You even shown in the emotes yes it does bring him some degree of pain he has to do it this way most of all to the one who carries on the person most close to him, legacy.
@@thekaxmax When you have seen what a ''true'' person is and then live to see what is not even half of that, is hard to see otherwise. He didn't live with humans, he lived with ancients; we're not ancients so he wouldn't see us anywhere close to that. xD
@@noelle420 It doesn't take living with someone to be willing to have regard for their lives. He has less regard for our lives than we have for ants--he regards us as abominations, not just beneath concern. But he demonstrates a psychopathic level of lack of empathy. He's an unrepentant fanatic, and therefore evil. Even after we beat him at the end, he's not sorry for his actions.
@@thekaxmax as he himself said, he watched us for eons and found us wanting; doesn't seem like Eorzeans really care about their own well being ( nor those from other stars ) since they eventually blow each other to death. ( Something confirmed by Meteion, even ). For Emet-selch we're no better than animals because in his eyes we act like so, and his empathy is towards his own whole planet and not some unknow race born past the sundering, especially considering that even before he set his machinations for Garlemald in the works many places were already in war. And while not something that justifies his actions, he has lived and seen too much. He might not have gone as far as Meteion in his searches for civilization, but what he saw sure did dishearten him. What empathy he'd have after all that, for who? Gridania who's extremely xenophobic? Ul'dah who's corrupt to the bone? Limsa who's a nation bathed in blood? Not to say that the Ancients were saints, but come on. They only started a ''war'' against themselves when the followers of the yet-to-be-born Hydaelyn and Zodiark were directly in conflict.
@@noelle420 My statements stand. He's got less empathy for us than we have of ants, and also an antipathy towards all life that's not Ascian. He doesn't just not care, he wants to use us as a resource, no more than that. He's evil.
I absolutely love how you recreated this. You didn't go overboard and change the direction of how he conveyed things, but added so many nice flourishes simply to enhance it. And captured the same camera angles and emotes he makes within it really well. It's fantastic and incredibly immersive
the VA did an outstanding job on this character in general. you can hear every depth and emotion of Emet in is voice - its like a hit directly in your heart and mind every single time he gets serious.
I love how he goes from that light, whimsical persona that is reminiscent of Hythlodaeus to his original self when he remembers all of his pain and suffering; his accomplishments to his rebuilding But more importantly, this is absolutely gorgeous. The details you put into this is astonishing. The lighting, the shadows on every piece of detail is just👌👌👌
Pleeeeeease do some more cutscene recreations like this!! It truly elevates these already stellar scenes to another level. Elidibus maybe could be next?
I remembered when this scene brought a slight chill down my spine. Your take here seems much more emotional and expressive than what I remembered in game. Wonderful job, like always! ❤️👍
A man who’s pain and grief and guilt are boundless and bottomless a man who knows that destruction is not a means to the end it’s simply a means to a singular goal
While Emet of course steals the show, you voicing your character makes me wish that SE could allow our WoL to actually talk in cutscenes. I really want to hear my character’s voice besides her battle grunts. Yeah, yeah budget reasons, but STILL!! 😫
While I get that everyone has their own idea on how their character sound like, I think it would be pretty neat to actually hear our WoL speak with the voice that we already picked for them in-game. But of course, many wouldn't be satisfied ("My character don't sound like that!"/"I don't like my character's voice..") Oh it would be wonderful to have my favorite voice actress voicing my WoL, but that's a dream that will never come true, so I would be content with the voice that I picked for my character because it's better than just seeing her mouth move with no voice coming out in cinematic cutscenes. XD
That tone change at the end always reminds me of ardyn from ffxv and gives me the chills, they have such great VAs Amazing representation of the cutscene too, great animation 👌💙
my goodneSS GRACIOUS!!!! You all put such an amazing touch on this shortened version of Emet's speech holy cow oh my oh me WELL DONE INDEED and thank you for sharing with us all!!!
AAAAaaaaa That was so well done OMG!! ❤❤ You did such an amazing job capturing Emet's expression and emotion in this animation-- I love how you did the cinematography here, it really adds feeling to the scene! 😩❤❤and your attention to detail is absolutely amazing!! Everything felt so fluid and natural, I legit just can't stop rewatching this amazing masterpiece-- Thank you so much for making this amazing animation 😍
Holy Hydaelyn, this was really good. The subtle movements and expressions give the emotions so much more humanity and power. This is honestly better than the stiff original one in terms of animation quality!
I appreciate how you tried to stick to the original direction and instead focused on expanding upon it. I would love to see more recreations, cycling through a variety of different WoL?
this is so absurdly good--seeing one of the best final fantasy villains (or antagonists in general tbh) animated and brought to life like this just adds so much weight and impact to his speech. absolutely amazing. (and ofc even tho they were just in the bg, i'm honored my models were able to be a part of this
This makes me really want to see a version of the cutscene after amaurot remade like this. I feel like Emmet-selch's reaction to your challenge would be so cool to see with these full animations.
Holy biscuits! This is amazing! So much detail in the expressions that add extra oomph to an already powerful scene. How I wish I had found this sooner.
I watched this when you uploaded it not knowing the context but being curious as to what was going on... so I mostly just enjoyed the animation. Now that I've finally played FFXIV and reached the end of Shadowbringers- just the patches and middle stuff before Endwalker left before I get to that next expansion- I just had to go back to this video and appreciate it a lot more. I love how your WoL gets to be voiced for the one line too! Now I can watch more of your FFXIV animations without wondering too much about what the context is since I'm playing the game now HAHAHHA
With how good this looks imagine how theyd do the part of this speech when emet asks if half of etherys, as it is now, would sacrifice themselves to save the other half.
If this ended with him walking through the door and into the hellish fire of Amaurot... ohhh man the symbolism in this scene would have been *chef's kiss*
I really hope at the very least they do another pass on the lip flaps in the future because as fantastic as these scenes were the lip flaps not matching up to the English voices took me out of the moment. This is so good!! Hire her, SE!!! ❤️
if that minor reason took you of of the moment then you are not even a fan. This is NOT FF7Remake where it is awfully cringe how a character speaks and the lips dony matvh because they are ub wapanese

"You cannot be entrusted with our legacy."
"Do not squander it. The legacy I leave you."
i'm not crying you're crying
Being fair: We kicked his ass to earn the right.
Emet's voice actor fucking killed it dude. "How very... Very .... Heroic of you" You could FEEL the disdain he had in those words
René Zagger deserves an ego boost for how well he delivers on Emet's facade of evil when he's just tired, deep down.
I'm rather fond of sleep. Wonderful way to pass the time

Thank you Ureshiii and however comissioned this, you have blessed us!
Doing René Zagger’s stellar performance justice
One of my favorite cutscenes from this game. Emet just spitting facts.
Click - *save* Click *favorites* - SO GOOD
Damn this is so strong... the way his eyes bug out when he loses it...
God imagine if all the cutscenes had this level of animation and polish
You know what makes a good vilain? When they have a valuable reason to do what they're doing.
Damn right he steals the show. God this cutscene was amazing to start with this just makes it so much more impressive
I want to cry.....

Aw - so good as always QOQ
This so awesome indeed!!!! I really love emet's facial expression!!!! I can feel his rage so deep OH MY GOSH good job!!!!👏
That was chilling! Emet is easily the best antagonist I have ever seen
I appreciate how you tried to stick to the original direction and instead focused on expanding upon it. I would love to see more recreations, cycling through a variety of different WoL?
Emet was never a villian, just a broken hero who wanted to go home....

Oh my gosh this is amazing!
Holy hell that was just...haunting...
This is a frikking MASTERPIECE.
AAAAA THIS IS SO GOOD, YOU'RE INCREDIBLE
The facial expressions the characters deserve.
This is amazingly well done!
"The long walk" at the end of endwalker should be redone like this. So impactful :'3
Holy biscuits! This is amazing! So much detail in the expressions that add extra oomph to an already powerful scene. How I wish I had found this sooner.
Ohhhhhh my god. Oh. My. God. This is... my mind is blown. Absolutely breathtaking. Amazing. Fantastic!!
I want the whole cutscene now. Just to keep crying ;~; fighting Hades broke me.
"Look at me" Hit me like a TRUCK with this animation
I don’t know what hit me harder, the emotional speech perfectly performed, or hearing the Warrior of Light voice their response.
Excellent work as always
Absolutely awesome! Amazing work on the animation as always! ❤️💯
I got absolute chills watching this! Amazing and fluid animation work. I hope to see more!!
Emet perfectly summed up my feelings for the new XIV fanbase and its drastic departure from why I played the game for 11 years from 2010-2021.
SE needs to hire you, stat
I watched this when you uploaded it not knowing the context but being curious as to what was going on... so I mostly just enjoyed the animation.
Now that I've finally played FFXIV and reached the end of Shadowbringers- just the patches and middle stuff before Endwalker left before I get to that next expansion- I just had to go back to this video and appreciate it a lot more. I love how your WoL gets to be voiced for the one line too! Now I can watch more of your FFXIV animations without wondering too much about what the context is since I'm playing the game now HAHAHHA
Flawless! Just flawless. I love this community.
Hair transparency in this game. Gotta love it.
When people say they want an HD enhancement of something, this is what I'm pointing to for example.
Good lord, the animation!!
With how good this looks imagine how theyd do the part of this speech when emet asks if half of etherys, as it is now, would sacrifice themselves to save the other half.
If this ended with him walking through the door and into the hellish fire of Amaurot... ohhh man the symbolism in this scene would have been *chef's kiss*
You can't tell me Emet isn't one of the greatest, if not THE greatest rpg villain of all time.
they need to hire you to make cutscenes like this it would spice up the game so much more this edit is amazing
god damn men please yoship hire this guy!! imagine how much better the game would be. with animations like this
1:12 his eyes !!!
Caught me off guard when the PC talked.
God, what would I do if we just had some voice lines for OUR character saying our brief moments worth. The confines that are the limitations of data.
This is fantastic. I can't wait to see more ideas you do.
1:22 this head tilt really adds
Hats off to you I needed this
This is amazing I needed this it’s really cool I love Emet
omg please do more! this was amazing.
Fantastic animation. Keep doing it!
"you cannot be entrusted with our legacy." "i trust you with our legacy" HERE I AM CRYING AT 9 IN THE MORNING
God damn this is incredibly cool!!!!
One of my favorite villains of all time
DAMN! Those graphics are incredible! Really doing Emet justice here ^w^
If I saw this in my ShB playthrough, I'd fuckin gush over this scene forever. This is amazing!
I really hope at the very least they do another pass on the lip flaps in the future because as fantastic as these scenes were the lip flaps not matching up to the English voices took me out of the moment. This is so good!! Hire her, SE!!! ❤️
if that minor reason took you of of the moment then you are not even a fan. This is NOT FF7Remake where it is awfully cringe how a character speaks and the lips dony matvh because they are ub wapanese
This was so good! I love Emet =D
This just proves that Square really can and should up their cinematics game.
Sometimes I forget how top notch the writing for this game is, can’t wait for what comes out next
Amazing!!
God I fucking love this guy so much. I love how after you kill him in the journal log it just says “you have committed a great and terrible thing.”
Goodness this is amazing!
FF14 needs soo much more voice acting, and emotions on faces, and more than "head nodding" in cut scenes. The story and these characters, deserve it.
This is bloody amazing. Thank you.
Excellent work!
The world belongs to us and us Alone
Brilliant
I think XIV is moving closer to this. 7.0 is the graphics update, and they're starting to upgrade the server tech, starting with NA in a few days.
i have remembered. and will always remember.
Emet: I fight for those we have lost...
WoL:...for those we can save, I must stand against you.
All Ascian voice actors were theater kids and I fuck with it.
