#this is a ff14 post

i couldn't understand why the fight with eulogia (the last boss of the EW alliance raid series) was making me tear up or flat out cry and then i realized that perhaps a story in which the culminating decision and confrontation is an act of euthanasia, something you are begged to do as gently as possible, as every single facet tells you how strong you are, how you've overcome so much, how it's out of love for you that they can even ask this at all is probably a really painful thing to put yourself through after you've had to put your sixteen year old cat to sleep.

Shadowbringers is a ghost story, it's a love story, it's a post-apocalyptic horror story, it's a high fantasy that turns the genre's notions of light and dark and hero and villain inside-out and upside-down. Fitting with the whole light and dark schema it's FF14's writing at it's darkest and edgiest, and most optimistic and hopeful at the same time. It's about the struggle of finding and protecting whatever hope you can in the most painful of situations, about how even the strongest of us have to rely on one another, and it's an allegory about healing from grief and trauma on a grand scale. It's about choosing an imperfect present, a broken world, over a false promise of a utopian past.

Most importantly it's a story about the universal human experience of trying to kill evil angels while being lied to by wizards who are weirdly obsessed with you.
