Highlights of FFXIV: Shadowbringers

The villain striding into your mysterious ally’s sanctum to talk about how great naps are

Negging a man into building you an enormous robot

The time when a tram that is crucial to your quest to save the world has fortunately been kept in maintenance by a bunch of guys who just really like trams

Finagling your way into a highly exclusive decadent hedonist city by pretending to be artists because somebody just threw their previous artist off a balcony 

The forest with your friends who worship darkness who are in conflict with some other guys who worship darkness but are, like, weird about it

The villain testing your resolve to face him in the final battle by making you stand in line and get a permit

I love how legitimately depressed Zenos is at the end of 5.3 and I almost feel bad for him.

*kicks down door* HOLY FUCK! buddy & i got Ampador in roulette for the first time in like 3 months & the last 2 bosses are sin eaters!! It's the lion from Eulmore & the angel motherfucker from the trailer & 1st dungeon! They're just *there*! Yoshi P what the f u c k

YOU HAVE NO CLUE HOW ECSTATIC I AM THAT YOU BROUGHT THIS UP.

OKay so a few months ago my BF and I ran through it unsynced for completion when we ran into those creatures.

Now naturally everyone's first thought running into them after ShB is "SIN EATERS" AND during the War of Magi which led to the 6th Umbral Calamity we knew the Mhachi were primarily Black Mages and the Amdapori were White Mages! The Mhach had sent Diabolos a Voidsent aka a beast from the 13th shard to their front lines and what better way to beat a creature conjured from Black Magic than to conjure a creature from White Magic? Though if you notice, they do speak unlike the Sin Eaters of the first and insinuate they were created, not summoned. Either way they were most likely created using Light Aspected Aether very much like Sin Eaters.

Also please note:

-in one of the Amdapor dungeons are Gremlins. You only really see them in the first and there. (I might be forgetting another place)

-in that same dungeon you were in, notice there are *light* sprites, again, the only place you find them are there.

-also in that dungeon that first boss? Did you notice the other "you" during one of the moves? Those were definitely fae and no one can convince me otherwise. They had fae wings sprout from their back as they did their cone attack.

Anyway I had a point to this but forgot where I was going in my excitement of typing this all out on mobile

Based on the latest ShB short stories. You can’t convince me otherwise.

Honestly I’m sad that they didn’t show exactly what happened in that brief time between Zenos demanding his body back and when Gaius and Estinien come in- what did Elidibus say? Did he just peace out immediately and head to the moon? How did Varis react to that? Did Zenos just stab his father unceremoniously or did he say something or...? Cmon I’m curious it has so much meme potential
