'My Star' (Ending Song) - Final Fantasy XVI

I had to actively stop myself from breaking down in tears so many times as I was recording this. I kept picturing the ending sequence playing to this beautiful song.

Having grown up with the FF series, I can’t express how much this game meant to me. It's all I've been thinking about since finishing the game, and now it feels like there's an empty void and I'm sad it's over, but I'm happy I got to experience it. It’s been a while since I’ve felt this way after playing a Final Fantasy game (with the exception of FFXIV and FF7R) probably since FFX (which was over 20 years ago oh god), and it makes me so optimistic for the future of the series. Seeing so many who are new to FF games enjoy 16 also makes me incredibly happy. To me, this game felt like a love letter to all the Final Fantasys that came before it. Thank you Square Enix and Creative Business Unit III for absolutely nailing it!!!!

"The world's yours now. Yours to do with as you please. That's what Cid wanted. That's what they *both* wanted."

"My 56-hour FFXVI journey came to an end today. Whenever i start playing a final fantasy game, i never want to these beautiful journeys end. Because each final fantasy game is unique to me. There is so much to say about the game. The characters and story are brilliantly written, the battles are breathtaking, the level designs are stunning, and oh, all those epic Masayoshi Soken soundtracks since 14, it's a pure work of art by Naoki Yoshida." Deserves Game of the Year award more than anything.

I still can't get the ending of my head. Whole game was such a unique experience for me and this song hits so hard...

Hauntingly beautiful. Not only gave me chills after completing FFXVI, but it gives me nostalgia reminders to older games and anime like Lunar: Silver Star Story. Absolutely love your rendition, thank you!

So happy for this cover, and right after I finished the game. Wonderfully done.
