Can I just mention how much I've been listening to the boss fight music at work these days? A lot of people have been saying how they like Ravana's... but I'm a rather big fan of Bismarck and Thordan's. I mean, LISTEN to this:

It could be that I'm a sucker for operatic music, but goddamn. Makes me feel all the worse that I couldn't listen to it very well when going through since I was trying to figure out what the heck I was supposed to be doing. That... and being absolutely MESMERIZED by the planet background for the limit break at the end.

That fight was probably the best fight I've ever been in in this game. 

"S-So many colors! NO DONT JUST DODGE I WANT HIM TO SPAM THIS"

The Thordan fight was amazing. I didn't think they could pull off such a true to the summon from ff7 version but god damn, I am glad they proved me wrong.  It felt like I was eight again seeing the summon for the first time. I look forward what other crazy ideas they try using from now on.

Also I want to bring up a thought about the primals... We know for a fact how to make one.... I'm I the only one thinking we may fight a primal version of the WoL somewhere down the line?

I was reading some stuff about the fight in the comments for that video too. Apparently, they other knights show up in the exact same order and pairing as in the original FF7 summon, which is a really nice touch if true. Still, even without that little attention to detail, the fight itself is aesthetically pleasing and the battlefield itself is beautiful (especially the end of the limit break, as mentioned).

Also, a couple people have been throwing around that the WoL might BE a primal or becoming one. After all, a primal is wrought from the hopes and wishes of the people - and the WoL did come out of basically "nowhere" to fill the hole left by the previous Warriors of Light from 1.0. Then again, if the WoL was/was becoming a primal... I would figure the Scions would've noticed (and subsequently tried to "deal" with you, if they weren't using you for their own purposes).

Given the MSQ ending, though, I can definitely see us getting into conflict with the WoD (whom I've affectionately dubbed the Darklander, since it seems to be using the Derplander model).

I was a bit disappointed that they didn't make the Dark warrior match your model/job.

Unless they've been slowly tempered by being in your presence...

Honestly that doesn't make sense considering the Ascians have been empowering people to create Primals.

Not, y'know, trying to deal with it their own way.

Rather, that you CAN effectively deal away with two empowered primals, two Ascians + Thordain in one fell swoop, as well as ally yourself WITH someone using a primal is a threat to their plans.

So they figure, if Hydaelyn can have her warrior, why not Zodiark?
