Thanks to @user-bk1ow7ws1z for the lyrics
Starlight, say goodnight
Starbright, where have you fallen?
Starlight, say goodnight
Starbright, I hear you calling
Fire, oh fire that filled the night
Fire, that warmed and brightened my life
My guiding light on earth
My half, my beacon and my hope
A sky of scattered tears
A thousand years apart
Should they fade, I will not be afraid of the dark
For your flame still burns inside me deep within my heart
Showing me, a new tomorrow, never too far
And when I cannot bear the pain, I look up to the sky and pray
And though our night is over you shall always remain, forever, my treasure, my star

Worst decision I’ve made is to finish the game at night and break myself completely while sobbing and listening to this song over and over again
"Forever, my treasure, my star" hits different if you've completed Jill's final side quest 😭😭😭
"The World's yours now. Yours to do with as you please" "That's what Cid Wanted. That's what they both wanted."
"Can you see it too, Jill?" 😭😭😭😭
I don't care what people say this is a great final fantasy
This ending left me absolutely broken, last time i cried this hard was in Interstellar
As a professional singer, this is one of the most stunning vocal performances I’ve ever heard.
When she hits with “a sky of scattered tears” it is SO strong of a feeling.
Can we admire that this is the best video game created water we've seen?
If this isn’t played at my funeral I ain’t dying
I'm 37 grown ass adulte. Whene i finished the game and saw this scene i broke into tears. No little tears i mean genuin flood gates where open. My daughter saw that and tried to confort me 😂 Words can not express how much i loved this game, this story, These characters. Seeing jill and torgal cry broke me for real. The looks on clive face when he passes out is so real i cant shake it out of my mind. And now, few days laters i m listening to this sobing. This is art. Who give a F about some minor details and fetch quest whene the main story can shake you to your core !? This is Final fantasy.
I love how even though FF16 already had a song by a high-profile artist to go at the end of the game, Soken clearly said, “Too bad. I’ve had a woman with an angelic voice singing beautiful piano reprises at the end of everything I’ve worked on for the past 10 years, and that ain’t changing now. You can play yours after mine is done.”
Crazy how this makes you feel sad yet hopeful at the same time.
A beautiful game about legacy and the human spirit. The good and the bad But what’s more beautiful is Clive’s final act to Joshua wasn’t about legacy. In that moment Clive; Wasn’t Logos Wasn’t Mythos Wasn’t Ifrit Wasn’t Cid the Outlaw Wasn’t Wyvern Wasn’t Rosaria’s Shield Wasn’t a Rosaria He was Joshuas big brother. A bond and a flame Ultima could never snuff because it was a bond that never needed to be forged. Because it’s brotherhood. From beginning to the end he was a big brother.
Seeing Gav and Jill crying totally broke me, and still does.
This is the only final fantasy game that brought me to tears. One of the last sidequests i did was with Gav and Jill. Man, when Gav couldn't hold it together, after seeing Jill and Torgal run off, i just lost it. I wish we could get more of that ending. I think Clive deserved most of all to have a happy ending with Jill
Final Fantasy XVI in the most simplest of words. Was genuinely beautiful
I was already broken but seeing Torgal howling at the moon broke me even more
Deserves a goty nomination. But then again, what matters is that we lived it and loved it.
I think the fact the he died alone, makes the ending so much more heart breaking
