compare final fantasy 16 to final fantasy rebirth, i think rebirth is way overrated, as for 16 i think it’s a solid good game like 8/10.
i just don’t get FF7 so boring 😴😴😴

I think there was time skip between the time when Clive unleashed his final power on origin and when he lied on the beach. What if actually he didn’t just destroy the origin..but he also teleported himself up to the Metia and fight the most final battle with his winged form ?

I loved this game and am super psyched for this DLC. Leviathan moves/abilities looks fun af
This game is in my top 3 FF. First is 10, then 6, then 16. After playing 70 hrs of beautiful Rebirth, seeing this trailer was refreshing, which is hard to explain. Yoshi P’s reaction to seraphim Clive was interesting at Pax Panel, some suggested his “we are not changing the ending” comment was a misdirection- I’m not so convinced but we will see. I liked 16’s ending. It was a good fit, and the ambiguous leftovers is ok with me.

Yoshi-p said they not going to change the game end, but they will add epilogue to the world of FF16…
my crazy theory after seeing the DLC trailer : the house in the post credit is in Mysidia in the north, Shiva/Jill orgin so i think that Clive and Joshua both are dead so Jill lift the hideway and went back to the north with Torgal, here the crazy part Jill was pregnant, she gave birth to her son and named him Joshua and he who wrote the book about his father Clive.
the two kids in the post credit cutscene are descendant of Clive and Jill, and the dog descendant of Torgal 🤯🤯🤯
*why they made Clive and Jill naked scene long for 10min just talking, and in the morning you see Jill leaning back on Clive as if she become weak, is it because he took her power or it’s because she pregnant 🤔

Just saying Clive with Wings (Logos) cant be for nothing. He will live. There’s no doubt about it. Square is just being cheeky.

If anyone loves 16’s ending and/or found peace with it. Please share with me your secret lmao

I annoy even myself not being able to let go of 16’s ending and stop it from becoming a over negative narrative I keep repeating… but it’s where I’m at man. Damn it man… why couldn’t they have brought it home. Why couldn’t Dion get a well deserved finale. Why couldn’t Ultima have been somewhat interesting. Why couldn’t this DLC have been like any of the theory vids I riffed and included something meaningful. I mean hell… they put a trailer out talking about undoing an underserved fate and its not about any of the three legends who fell at the end. Putting in a damn timekeeper and having an angel looking Clive. Square just be pulling on a thread and flirting with us over something they know we are all gonna misconstrued… there’s no plan to change the ending but you gonna tease us like this?

So I’ve just seen (after this react) that Yoshi confirmed this is not going to recontextualize or change anything with the ending of FF16. So it’s a pre-ending DLC that Clive/Jill must have SOMEHOW gone on without us knowing. Its my least favourite kind of throw away insertion and not gonna lie… pretty bummed its not choosing to change things like FF15’s dawn of the future was going to. But a new battle stance and a chance to be in this GORGEOUS azz game is something I’ll gladly take.

“Yoshida says…that the ending will remain as is. However, ‘You will get a deeper understanding of how the world of Valisthea is and how the characters are in Final Fantasy XVI,’ he adds, stopping short to prevent himself from spoiling too much.”

According to a GameInformer interview with FF16 director Naoki “Yoshi-P” Yoshida and DLC director Takeo Kujiraoka, there are no plans for The Rising Tide to change FF16’s ending
