That was about as uneventful and disapointing of an end as it could have possible had. Hope they can get there stuff together before 2.0 releases.

That was one fucking epic CS.

I think they spent the entire budget of the initial FFXIV launch on that CG, good lord.

Anything happen inside the game? or just countdown to server shutdown?
Saw the CG. It was pretty cool, but didn't care too much for the song thou.

...Wow, amazing trailer.
With Bahamut controlling Darnus from within Dalamud, I guess this explains why Darnus could use Megaflare.
Also... doesn't seem likely that Lou or any of the generals could have survived being at Ground Zero of a real Megaflare.
That's Midgardsormr - the MNK storyline explains that.
I didn't think it was possible that Bahamut was inside of Dalamud, because the MNK storyline seemed to indicate that Bahamut was still an active player in things, not imprisoned, and was the one that sent Midgardsormr to destroy the Imperial Airship that captured all the Primals. I guess it's possible he could have done that from within Dalamud, but I'm not sure why the MNK scholar dude would know that.

What a surprise ... *yawn*
Last line should have been shit end for a shit game :|.
Honestly, awesome CGI but shitty ending :s.

doubt louis would save us and ignore the generals.
Yeah that was crazy...first time i've seen any FF heroes look truly helpless in the face of disaster.
And hopefully they go into more detail about Midgardsormr in ARR...unless those two are supposed to go up against each other at some point. Maybe I should check out the Monk scenes later on...
Good point.
It was all text, so it's not like there are any scenes to check out.
And... I'm guessing Midgardsormr isn't really around at all any more - would expect that Mor Dhona is little more than a smoldering crater, at this point.
Got a point there.
EDIT: Probably should have just let people log in, see the CG cutscene and then log out.

I am man enough to admit that tugged on my heartstrings. What a selfless act.

Moved my 28 botanist earlier today to Mor Dhona to try to see the end of the world after not playing for a year. Couldn't log in for the event and half-watched live streams of people mostly failing to log in until midnight.
CG ending made up for it all! So quality. Looking forward to seeing what's in store for FFXIV 2.0. I hope at least a couple of the main storyline chars survive Bahamut!

We still got the other half the FMV to look forward to as well, we are missing the part where we wake up after getting transported into the future and we know it exists since we have seen snippets from it in the previous trailers
wonder if they will keep the 'end' CG and fuse it with the rest of the opening FMV when 2.0 officially launches.ForzaFerrari

I bet he was making a new Dalamud. Wasn't a weapon after all?

I'm making the OT... but you make OTs one week before release.
End of an Era? I think End of an Era is just the name to the "trailer", the actual song in the trailer is called Answers. At least I think you're taking about the song in the trailer.
