      The story was originally connected to FF XIII. What if Bahamut was Bhunivelze in another form with the objective of creating his perfect world of light after ightning put in him in sleep in LR FFXIII ? Only a theory hey but if you think about it, they're more or less the same jerkass gods of light who only want everything perfect following their views and have absolutely no care about anyone's feelings.

      Eh, he'd only be the 'true villain' if he didn't mean to destroy the Starscourge - but even with this plot, that WAS his intention, so that only really makes him a ruthless nominal hero who has godly 'blue and orange morality'.
      Whereas Ifrit's actions caused as much/more trouble than this plot overall, all because he was spurned. He purposefully turned against his purpose of protecting Eos and tried to murder mankind, and caused a god war, among other things... while understandable because of humanity growing arrogant, he did it for his own selfish reasons, whereas at least Bahamut's plot had a well-intentioned purpose. Even Leviathan is worse than Bahamut, wanting to devour all humans just from being woken up and refusing to give up her power until she was literally forced to
      Still, I'm amused how people think all the gods are automatically terrible just because Bahamut isn't as nice as initially thought. Last I checked, we're supposed to judge them on an individual basis XD

      Ardyn: :|
      Somus: ...and that I burned entire towns of our people alive and literally stabbed your fiance in the back after she mistakenly put her trust in me.
      Ardyn: :|
      Somnus: But you can like...understand? Right? Surely you can at least give me your understanding.

  • @ironwolg
    @ironwolg 5 лет назад +105

    Noctis and Ardyn were just two sides of the same coin. Slaves to fate and the gods. Bahamut is truly the villain here. Ardyn gets betrayed, loses his love, and gets locked in a prison for two thousand years. He sees food in front of him and what does he do? Prays and thanks the gods for it, only to be betrayed yet again by them. I think in the end, Noctis knew all the pain Ardyn had gone through. “This time you can Rest In Peace. Close your eyes forevermore.”
    They’re releasing a novel that is presumably to be the conclusion of the story. I hope they release it in English.

    @supremeoverlorde2109 3 года назад +1

    Ardyn’s character really makes me sad. No matter the ending of this story that you follow, he is pretty much a necessary sacrifice for the fate of the world. And it’s such a shame that he had to suffer so much as a result. The thing about Ardyn is that YES-he became a villain who hurt and killed a lot of people. But only because he was manipulated and tormented into submission by people and Gods who decided what his fate should be. Ardyn wasn’t a bad guy. He wanted to help people, and was manipulated by the Gods into believing his healing power would allow him to do it. Instead, he was punished and cast into 2,000 years of torment. Understandably, he began to drown in hatred and resentment. And the moment he almost had his vengeance, the Gods took it away and said-“No. We need you to do your part in saving the world by spreading darkness and letting yourself become a sacrificial lamb to the bloodline that betrayed you and locked you up for two millennia. Sorry not sorry you lost your life, mortality, and humanity, but it’s for a good cause, yeah?”
    I couldn’t imagine being in that position, having a deity come out and tell me my fate. At that point, I don’t think much of anything would matter anymore. Everything’s pre-ordained right? So the result will be the same, no matter what I do.
    In any case, Ardyn is a fascinating character and I’m glad we got this DLC to explore his backstory. It’s a shame we didn’t get more of it in the main game-it would have made for such a richer experience from the start.

    Wow, we all know the true villain of FF15 now... The Gods, they literally toyed with Ardyn to turn him into a villain just to ply out what they want to happen. Does anybody else besides me think this SHOULD have been FF15's real story? Taking down the Gods that toy with mankind like this. Bahamut LITERALLY confessed how they wanted all this to happen just so they could make a story about the Heroes of Light! This entire DLC's story was vastly superior to the entirety of FF15's main story! I feel like Ardyn should get more time in the spotlight after this!

    @giannabrown867 5 лет назад +2

    FFXV is the exact opposite of FF XIII series lol. If FF XIII series is about opposing God and their plans, FFXV is about following it -- for a greater cause. Bahamut and Kings of Lucis many times mocked others about how "short-sighted" they are. The Gods are dealing with a myriad of daemons with no healers available to purge them, human think only about their momentary safety. Somnus saw the fate the line of Lucis have to face the moment he put on the ring. Every King of Lucis knows this fate and waits in fear, that's why they have so many guardian systems.
    All of that is only to bid enough time until Noctis is born. He met Bahamut when he was matured, and with only one line: *"Many has sacrificed themselves for the King, so must the King sacrifice himself for all."* , Noctis willingly went into slumber to have his peace.

    The funny thing about the storyline is: Ardyn who was the true Messias back than, full of love and a healer and a good guy, went to eternal prison. And in the meantime his sadistic backstabbing jealous brother Somnus who was killing for fun and pure joy (for example Aera....) got the throne and become the big astral shiny hero and shiny knight afterwards :D that`s very strange.

    While I now feel some small amount of pity for him he still murdered a bunch of innocent people. This also includes murdering, and signing the fates, of Luna and Noctis who had NOTHING to do with what was done to him. A better story would have been for him and Noctis to team up to tell Bahumut to kiss their asses. Also Somus was a monster, and so it's disgusting that he got to live a great life while also making so he and his decedents built a prosperous kingdom on top of a innocent mans tragedy. He even still got to go to whatever heaven exists in this story. A SOCIOPATH got that. This, and Kingdom Hearts, just proves that these enix games are starting to more and more have no actual moral center. You can be evil as hell, but still get good things at the end,and sometimes even your victims will be your biggest cheerleaders.

  • @devilovesdevil
    @devilovesdevil 5 лет назад

    Okay I have to say two major things about this. Of course damn that was fucked up but as Bahamut stated it was preordained and from what Somnus said about understsnding and doing what he was told it seems; did Bahamut tell him that this was how things will be? It seemed something was off about all this and it seems it leads me to Bahamut keeping these brothers apart. Using Somnus' envy against him and Ardyns ambitiouness to get the starscourge into a single vessel to annihilate. Its all kinda fucked if you think about it.
    I think along the lines Bahamut knew that obviously Ardyn was chosen and he was given the power to ease suffering taking the scurge. Thus packing it into a nice little sacrificial box for Noctis the true king of Light Ardyn thought he was to be killed off. He needed Somnus and used his envy and probs told him his brother is a sinner and is taking the disease from people and tis tainitng himself. Giving Somnus all the big headed ego he needed to take him down specially after Aera told him Ardyn was to sit the thone. He probably felt it was in his right to do so and protect his people in his dammed eyes. Even kill his brother for the monster he has become.
    I wonder though if Bahamut from the beginning told Ardyn that he was to do as he was, taking the sickness away to later hold it in for the true king of light to kill him with the scourge as a Martyr I guess. Would Ardyn, as devote as he was back then, have simply agreed? He Would be easily dropped the throne, seeing as he didnt want it in the first place. Like would things still have gone as acording to plan? Cuz other than Somnus for letting his envy get the better of him and making him a complete ass hat. I blame Bahamut for this fate.

Yet this game comes around and completely messes up that trend in every sense of the word.
    Honestly for what it's worth, I would've loved to see Nomura's Versus but sadly that will never ever happen. Not because Nomura is *supposedly* a bad Director/Writer or that Tabata is an *incompetent fool* but Square's higher-ups are *money-hogging freaks.*

      Well Ardyn DLC is almost perfect. The endings do not matter since they are the same if you chose to resist or submit to fate. One downside is that you do not kill Bahamut or at least fight him. For fuck sake If I would be Ardyn I would infect the gods with Starscourge and I would let them suffer slowly as shit let them kill Noctis, after that his band of losers and corrupt the crystal and absorb it. Fin The End. Fuck he could have done it in anime corrupt every shitty lucian turn them to daemons and absorb them. Only one DLC mattered to me besides Ardyns and that was the Final DLC where Noctis challenges fate (probably Bahamut). But we get the novel instead. They should make an anime called Final Verse for this game and end the series for good.

His anger is justified, towards his brother's betrayal, against the gods's manipulation, even Area's secrecy and even towards the whole legacy of the Calleum family.

    Ardyn's misery is a sea of sadness. There is no salvation for him, even his salvation taken away by the gods. His humanity sacrificed by his blessings, his family throne and love destroyed by a brother. A man left with nothing but hatred, sadness and despair. Taken unto the edge of madness, revealed to be nothing more than a pawn to be sacrificed, by the playful will of the gods. The misery of Ardyn's existence is a unreacheable sea of sadness and desolation.

    After watching this gameplay, I came to realize that Ardyn was using Mars Sapienta's face and body all along so King Regis never recognized him in Kingsglaive.

    Aww the cutest Episode Ardyn ending reaction everr.. 1:08:35
    But to answer your question. Ardyn wanted Noctis to feel the same pain he did. Killing Luna and twisting the world and etc. Ardyn is saving the best for last. There are a some instances that Ardyn saved Noct and the Bros througout the main story. And at some point lost patience and had given up (Episode Ignis). But thank Ignis all went accordingly.
    In the end. I felt Noct understood Ardyn. Before the final battle when Noct notices the Paintings. He said that "He (Ardyn) has been living in a world, he can share with no one". And after their fight instead of anger, Noct felt pity for Ardyn and said. "This time, you'll rest in peace".

    Concerning the whole Lunafreya thing. I think Luna "needed" to die so that no one could take in the starscourge. So long as she lived, she could slow down, or even halt, the coming of the darkness, and thus, Noctis would have never risen as the King of Light. Noctis taking in all the power of the Crystal was a pretty important part of Ardyn's plans to exact revenge on Bahamut, on the Crystal, and on the kingdom that Somnus built.

  • @wolfcreek2786

    Somnus didn't quite cause it. The God bestowed Ardyn with that fate from the beginning and Aera and Somnus knew about it. So his brother did what he had to do and made him fall into the Darkness. That is the reason why he told Ardyn to go back into the Darkness because he had to bring it to the world till the King of Kings was Born and Ready to kill him.Somnus, Aera, Noctis and especially Ardyn where just pawns to the gods.

  • @demirgrad1984
    @demirgrad1984 5 лет назад +14

    Poor Ardyn, he is the true hero of this story. Noctis will be remembered as a sacrifice who was played by the gods and he is not worthy of Cloud, Squall, Titus or Lightning. I wish Noctis story was of Ardyns origin seeking to remove the old gods hold on humanity using the power of the daemons. Buhamut is a jerk.

    Before the cancelled DLC (from what I understand), the way things were going to turn out was that is you selected 'Submit to your Fate'; then the timeline would have played out how it originally did in the FF XV. However, with the option you chose, it would have opened the alternative timeline which were all the cancelled DLCs. Instead of Noctus and the guys walking in, it would have been a resurrected Lunafreya telling Ardyn the 'Plan' was a lie and asking for his help! (Paraphrasing a bit here). It's all detailed in the 'Visions of the Future' Novel. I only got into this game last year (thanks lockdown), so I played blind through the whole thing and loved it. Broke me a little at the end and I'll never be able to listen to 'Stand By Me', the same way. Enjoyed watching your playthroughs and I'm still playing the occasional Comrades Mission.

    Dear Ardyn, let's read this Rule no.1: Never ever take a god's blessing in a form of a.... special (yet unreal or ultimate) ability. They never tell you everything about all the effects on other live creatures, on earth itself or on yourself. And they ask too harsh price for that.

    So the gods were playing everyone to achieve their own goal in the grand scheme of things just to rid the world of the Starscourge.
    Noct and Ardyn shared such a similar story in the end. Both were used and destined to live out a disastrous fate for the sake of the gods motives. Damn, I really appreciate this story a lot more now that it’s fleshed out like this, a nice way to end this game.

    It's an Excellent DLC, but it makes me question of their choice of writting. Since in Kingsglaive it follows the same timeline as in the game and no one seems to care (Even Regis) that Ardyn just casually walking through Imperial Throne of Insomnia like he was no one. While in DLC Regis Immediately realize it's him.

    My theory is... what if Noctis thought he was being "helped" by Bahamut when actually he was used as a pawn... and Ardyn thought he "posessed" Ifrit.. but actually he Was just Ifrit's tool for revenge? So the actual conflict was something else than they thought

    • @devilovesdevil
