Square Enix is putting together a live action drama series based on a real story that happened in Final Fantasy XIV. Titled “Final Fantasy XIV Daddy of Lightâ€, the drama will begin broadcast on MBS/TBS in Japan this April. Japanese actors Yudai Chiba and Ren Oosugi will be playing the part of the main characters.

The story makes it sound much better.
It actually sounds kinda sweet...
RE: Daddy of Light - Gegenji - 01-27-2017
... Now I feel kinda bad assuming this was going to be some sort of jokey-silly thread. Mostly just because of the premise name: "Daddy of Light." Still, as Liadan said, the premise is actually kinda touching.
RE: Daddy of Light - Shoshopu - 01-27-2017
This actually sounds really interesting!
I'm kinda confused why the article refers to it both as "Daddy of Light" and "Father of Light". There's also this?

I hope "Father of Light" is the one they go with, because... yeah.

I thought this would be a late reference to the memes going around for the Stormblood teaser trailer. >..>
The show seems a little weird to me cause I'm used to tv shows never referencing a specific product like this (it would be "father and son bond over fictional mmo game"). Is being obvious about a product in a tv show normal in Japan? Or is this just a reallllly long ad for XIV?

Argh right in the daddy issues! I hope it's good, I love stories like this.
RE: Daddy of Light - Kage - 01-27-2017
Quote:It is basically "the story of a father and son who have issues communicating. The son, who plays FFXIV and wants to get in on some friend referral bonuses, gets his 60-year-old father to join the game after receiving a PS4 from his wife as a birthday present. The son helps him create a character and eventually joins him on his adventure through the game, helping him out without revealing his true identity." according to the blog.
"I wonder if my dad could beat Titan (Hard) and stuff... I'm kinda excited..." ; ;
RE: Daddy of Light - Seriphyn - 01-27-2017
Neat! Looking forward to it. Would rather it be called 'Father of Light', though. As others have pointed out, daddy is a bit whimsical.
RE: Daddy of Light - Jana - 01-27-2017
I thought this was a thread that had escaped the Void for a moment.
I don't have much to say about this kind of show except that I hope it doesn't spend too much time going into the in-game systems ("son teaches his dad how to use the duty finder" is probably not the best half hour of TV) or it really will just turn into a long commercial.
RE: Daddy of Light - Cato - 01-27-2017
I'm glad I'm not the only one who read the title and assumed that this thread was going to be detailing something very different.
I do think it's a pretty neat concept - certain video-games are great for bonding over, MMO's especially.
RE: Daddy of Light - Kage - 01-27-2017
I wish I knew japanese so that I could read the blog. The summary suggests that the son never told his father that he was actively helping him out. Create a character and account and wala. Then kept showing his dad around and helping him on the same server...??
