  • Just like with the M video, I had a hard time finding a way to word this upload without massively spoiling everything, which made me really sweat for a while. Okay, I put some text in the description before committing to it so let's get into it in the next paragraph.
    N is Noah. Mio has inherited M's body in a way that reminds me of Romancing SaGa 2 Inheritance Magic but backwards. And now N!Noah has to come to terms with what happened, which brings a beautiful plot arc to a close. The voice acting on both Noah and N himself were incredible and I loved it all.

Understandable that Jin lost his love/Driver, but wanting to kill all humans is a huge leap in logic that doesn't make sense even if you played Torna. He should have only wanted to kill Amalthus. Meanwhile the reason N became Moebius makes much more sense and is more relatable.

      @@LifeMushroom N only really cared for Mio and nothing else. Jin on the other hand not just cared for Lora but how Blades are treated. Remember that between losing Lora and joining Malos there were probably hundreds of years and trough out that time, Jin saw how people never changed and always repeated the same mistakes. Blades were nothing but slaves for most of the humans, nothing like Torna (the continent) was.
      Also I enjoyed Jin way more because he actually had a ton of screentime. Xenoblade 3, due to having 20+ villains wasn‘t able to properly flesh out N as a villain. He just sort of appears in a few minor scenes early on, talks some cryptic stuff and then get‘s his real spotlight during Chapter 5 and 6 (and Chapter 4 if we count those like, 2 or 3 cutscenes at the end of that Chapter)
      Also I just don‘t like some of N‘s lines like: „Don‘t you look smug with my woman on your arm“
      Really can‘t take him serious at times

    I think this scene flies over a lot of people’s heads. This is not meant to be a full redemption for N, nor is it complete forgiveness for him. Some people like to say that N is a failure of a sympathetic villain, and that he is “forgiven” far too easily, but I think this is an easy misread of his character. You as the player are not meant to sympathize with N, as his actions are undoubtedly evil and his motives are entirely selfish. You are however, meant to EMPATHIZE with him, in other words, to merely understand him. To understand what drove him to the deepest pits of despair. Future Redeemed further drives this point home. He is a broken man, unable to carry the weight of life and has to lie to himself and the world in order to cope with actions he knew full well were evil. He is plagued with guilt and regret to the point of it driving him borderline insane, and of course that is no excuse for anything he does. It doesn’t make it ok that he chose what he did simply because he felt bad about it afterwards. M calls him out on this when she sees the ruins of the city, (even if mio says “but that’s ok too” lol). But there’s a silver lining, and that’s Noah’s unwavering understanding of N’s point of view, and the world itself, and how the nature of both led them all to this point. This scene does not represent N’s forgiveness and all being well, no, it is meant to be completely starting over, getting a CHANCE at redemption, because there was once good in him, Noah’s existence is proof and evidence. Not once does the game ever act like what N did was ok, it only ever emphasizes the sheer difficulty of choosing between the future of the world and your descendants and the one you love most, and like most flawed individuals in the real world, N chose selfishly for his own love.
    What this scene is trying to say is, I think, in spite of your mistakes, it is never too late to start over and move on. It is never too late to make a change in yourself and the world, no matter how scary it can seem. Maybe things in the world around you are worse because of the things you’ve done in life, but that doesn’t mean you can’t try to move forward and do good again anyway. After all, that is one of the core themes of Xenoblade 3. And by joining with Noah and becoming whole once more, destroying Z and Aionios, he is able to redeem Noah’s future, even if not necessarily himself.

      I think Mio’s “but that’s ok too” thing is a callback to the lesson they learned from Ghondor about not just blindly sacrificing everything to get out of a bad situation, but having the willingness to “protect the now” and not sacrifice people of the present. Not to say N did that in the most morally appropriate way, but Future Redeemed goes to lengths to show how he opposes Alpha’s desire to just wipe the slate clean and sacrifice everything to send a chosen few people to a temporarily better world. Furthermore, Crys gives Noah (with the rest of the party in earshot) the lesson of being content with ones lot in life, and I think these lessons among others brought Noah and Mio closer to understanding N, without tilting them so far as to wanting eternal stagnation and hollow security.

    Future Redeemed really bettered my opinion on N. He was already a great antagonist in my eyes, it was just his forgiveness scene and defeating of Z I had a problem with.
    Come FR, going in depth with the destruction of the City finally got me to make sense of his motivations. Everything he has tried to do has ended in failure: From beating Z, to keeping Mio safe, to killing his Son by mistake. Once his Mio went through with the Homecoming, anything hopes he ever had of feeling like he did something right at all went downhill.
    The world that Moebius, that Z created, is a world where no one has the right to live a life of their choosing. Moebius has the world and life itself in the palm of their hands. And every attempts he made to protect anything has ended in failure and tragedy. It’s no wonder N became regret itself.
    Matthew’s words at the end of FR really came to light from Chapter 5 onwards. It’s no wonder why N hated Noah and want to savor his suffering. Anything he does to him is proof that there’s no hope for him or the world. It wasn’t until Noah showed N that he understood his suffering that N finally sees the error of his ways.

  • @FEKana
    @FEKana 9 місяців тому +14

    I really enjoy that Mio tells N it's okay for him to have chosen to want to protect what was. Sure, he chose wrong because in the end, he's only delaying that inevitable separation... but she doesn't demean him for wanting to stay in the now. They don't tell him he's an idiot, they acknowledge that it's a human wish. That it's something everyone wants to do and only a few stay to do that. They show him an understanding while also not necessarily excusing his villain like behavior. I never noticed that when I first beat him because I was too busy almost crying.

      It reminds me a lot of Celeste now that I think about it
      Spoilers
      In chapter 6, Madeline tries to get rid of her “other self” representing her doubts and anxiety, and her other self retaliates by sending her all the way to the bottom of the mountain when she was pretty close to the top. Then at the end of the chapter, she understands her mistake and chases after her other self so she can reconcile, understanding that her anxiety and doubt aren’t just some parasite to cut off but a part of her personality that she needs to work alongside in order to fully realize her potential. Doubt is just a means of processing information to help maintain stability and safety, and we need that to stay alive. We get stuck and can’t go on when we give in entirely to our worries, but we’re also incomplete without them. And that’s exactly why Noah and Mio, Ouroboros, fuse with their Moebius selves, and why only then do they free the world from its fear

      On one hand Z only dies because N/Noah finally chose the other path at the pivotal moment.
      On the other hand that literally could not possibly have happened unless N chose wrong first. If that specific Noah had not done this, he would've just gone back into the cycle with Mio and been given the choice again, each in an increasingly more broken mental state than the last. Seeing how far his previous self had fallen and to what unforgiveable lengths he would go to keep Mio forever is one of the small handful of factors that lead new Noah to become who he did.

      I would be on the same boat as you. Throughout Xenoblade Chronicles 3, I really thought it was the Kingdom Hearts 3 of the Xenoblade series. The difference is that Kingdom Hearts 3 took a long time to be released where as XC3 didn't take long to be released. So it's possible that they took some liberties from the KH series. But back to N and Roxas, both of them suffered greatly. Roxas is a tragic hero that did not deserve any pain whatsoever and N used to be the embodiment hope until he became Mobius because of Z. Both are similar but their paths that they take are different. In a way, it's why I like these characters very much.

      Because N is different, created through different means and for a different purpose, his strength came from the original lucky 7 and his eternal persistence, his base form was stronger than a base solo interlink, as FR has shown, able to stand up to the very 3 who split the worlds in the firstplace

      X and Y probably didn’t interlink because it goes against Moebius’s wishes to let the worlds come together, and I think X and Y represent the two halves of Aionios (yeah I know there O/P and D/J but they’re not PURE Moebius like X and Y, they’re still just “actors” in a way)

      No. It speaks to the strength of N. It’s because he is who he is the Noah develops and has the character he does. It doesn’t speak to the strengths of the protagonists as a whole rather it said all of the antagonists should have been tied to the protagonists like N was to Noah. But they aren’t which is why the antagonists are weak. And considering Noah and Mio’s side quests are the only ones required to be played for plot, you could get rid of the other 4 protagonists along with most of the antagonists and not lose much.

      By that logic, you shouldn’t forgive everyone in the main party for killing hundreds of people. The whole point of Aionios is that people lack the ability to make a choice, and that’s enough to break them. We’ve seen that with Joran, for example. The main party understands this, and they very much acknowledge that N fucked up big time. But they got another chance to make the right choice despite the circumstances of having to fight in an endless war, so why shouldn’t he?

To be fair, while it doesn't excuse his actions, he was also forced into a cycle of death, grief, and pain & subsequently given a seemingly impossible choice - he made the wrong one, & that choice led him down a snowballing path of increasing corruption and evil, but he never should've been put in that position to begin with. You can empathize with him without forgiving him, and you can see why Noah might be willing to offer him another chance - because he too had to go through the experience and pain of (at least seemingly) losing Mio & so could empathize with the level of pain N felt when he chose to become Moebius. The message is that we're all a few choices, interpersonal encounters, and/or losses away from going down a dark path - it doesn't excuse the actions of those who do but serves to remind us to be mindful of our choices, stick to our core values, and to choose to be with good company.
