Xenogears - Square’s Transcendent RPG
Xenogears brings me back to a time when innovation was ripe within the rpg genre. Xenogears itself contained so many themes and story elements that really pushed the boundaries of what a developer could include in an rpg. With themes of Jungian psychology, humanism and the endless cycle of rebirth for example was both excellently incorporated into a mature story line and relatable characters that were way ahead of its time for a game that was released in 1998.
Tetsuya Takahashi, is among the premier game designers of the modern era and really showed that even with a limited budget could make the most of his opportunity with Xenogears. With Xenogears combat and gameplay it still felt timeless to this day allowing the player the feeling of exploration in a large over world while incorporating both ground-based combat and Evangelion esque gear combat that made you feel powerful and awestruck by the deathblow mechanic.
Over the course of this video, we will examine in great detail Xenogears art of storytelling, Mythology and Themes, Combat and Mechanics and my final conclusion on Xenogears. Thank you for watching!

    It's kind of sad that today's gaming industry focuses more on spending tons of money on one project rather than splitting it among lots of different projects that can cater to different gamers. If you look at Square's games during the PS1 era, there was all sorts of innovation and fresh concepts, even for its flagship FF series.

    I come back to this game every few years. It was one of the first RPGs I had beaten as a boy, back when the PS1 was still just a "Sony", and I barely knew what the hell was going on. I just thought that the battle system was cool, and having anime cutscenes in video games was still pretty novel, even if it was pretty badly done and terribly synced up, lol. But When I replay this game nowadays, I notice all of the allusions to geopolitical conflicts, and other crazy comparisons to stuff that's happening in the real world like with the whole Palestine/Israel conflict, and am just amazed. This game truly is a timeless classic. Anyways, good review. Thumbs up.

    1:07:31 "in true schizophrenic fashion" omg DID has nothing to do with schizophrenia. Schizophrenia has nothing to do with multiple alters. Alters are real people, real individuals, they aren't just auditory hallucinations. Please don't make the same mistake as Honeywood's translation and further continue to repeat this old-timey misinformation surrounding these mental disorders. Even in the 90s we already knew that DID does not equal schizophrenia, but back then it was widely used interchangeably as if they're the same thing. Kinda crazy that in 2024 now we clearly still haven't completely busted the incorrect usage of equating those terms and disorders. I honestly don't get how so many people still don't understand what schizophrenia actually is, such that "in true schizophrenic fashion" is even a thing someone would say about DID. When Citan uses the word "schizophrenic" while talking to Id he actually never uses that term in Japanese. In Japanese he just says "multiple personalities". Why on earth Honeywood changed the dialogue there, we'll never know unless we ask him. Maybe he also believed they were interchangeable. Thing is, this being back in the 90s, its surprising that he used the newer term DID... but then suddenly he uses "schizophrenic". Its just a strange mix of both using a better, more recent term and then flubbing it completely. Its also strange because just prior to using that term he used both MPD and DID, so like why'd he have to go and change the term when all Citan said there was "multiple personalities" in Japanese.

    I generally give ATLUS a bit of a pass with a lot of their rerelease practices because they as a company are really really loyal and supportive of their devs, and I personally enjoy seeing them take the game and push it forward or flesh it out in a new way. In the midst of thousands of layoffs, they gave company-wide ~15% raises to all their employees, which is such a massive win for the devs who have been pumping out these games. I never buy non-story DLC, collector's / digital deluxe / or whatever edition of games, so that stuff doesn't really affect me. Though, they should've absolutely given a DLC pass in the $200 version, but like I said, why purchase it in the first place...? For the day-one Soul Hackers 2 and P5T DLC, I just waited until they were heavily discounted as a way of protest. It also helps that ATLUS games are always polished and bug-free. Regarding Episode Aegis, I might wait until it's discounted a little bit. Honestly, I'm more annoyed with the brain-dead consoomers, who purchase $200 versions and then whine about DLC, than I am with ATLUS. If they want it to stop, STOP FUCKING BUYING IT EVERY TIME. They can get Aegis figurines and soundtrack CDs whenever they want. It's not going anywhere. I like new versions and quality DLC, therefore, I buy it. I don't like digital deluxe or collector's editions that give you a bunch of junk and alternate music(why would you even want to listen to the P4 or P5 battle theme when playing P3...?), therefore, I don't buy it. I don't care about costumes or any fluff stuff, therefore, I don't buy it. It's so easy to not support this stuff but for some reason these hypocrites just can't help themselves.

    Ayo wait is that a Raidou Kuzunoha with Yoshitsune profile picture? That's so cool. Amazing duology of games.

    I honestly wouldn't want a FF7 style remake. I'd prefer a remake in the style of Ever Crisis, without the bullshit of course. Great models, flashy turn-based battles, throw in some voice acting, and spruce up the world. It doesn't need to be full AAA. I'd much prefer a smaller scale remake with certain parts like the opera scene being given the full suite of FF7R quality cutscenes. The old guard have such great ideas and amazing creativity, that I'd rather see them make something new, while letting the youth prove themselves with an FF6 remake, with the old guard in a more supervising position like producer. Just like how ATLUS did with the Persona 3 remake.

      First comment I’ve seen regarding ever crisis but that’s a good idea with how they did the graphics and model.

      @@SnarfsSoldier17 I'm a huge fan of Ever Crisis in concept but it's such a disappointment as is. I yearn for an FF6 and FF8 with voice acting. FF8 especially, since it feels on the verge of being something more. It felt lesser to FF7 in every single way, but a remake could iron out everything that aged poorly about it.
