Apparently there’s a massive explosion near the beginning of this game, and now with Future Redeemed (XC3 DLC), we have a cutscene that, through a radio, reveals a lot of information. Namely: Dmitri Yuriev from Saga is namedropped The Radio’s design features the logo of the Vector company from Saga It talks about Project Exodus from X It talks about several arks, one of which implied to be the White Whale
@@MeowBanti Not really, this is told from the perspective of those one the White Whale. It's like the XC1 vs XC2 experiment cutscene where we only really got one perspective from Alvis, while Klaus told it from his perspective in Xc2
@@catalyst539 well, 2 did retcon a couple of things from 1. They would also need to change some things either from 1 or from X to make a connection between the two. Mostly because Earth gets destroyed in X, in 1 it's only implied that the planet is earth (with the whole memory space section), in 2 it's never called earth and in 3 they just don't say anything about it except for "Klaus' World".
@@XenoVis Is most definitely Earth. They can explain the destruction of the planet as that is probably the way it looked from the outside when Klaus did the experiment.
Eight years. Eight years I have waited for them to connect X to the numbered games. I knew in my heart of hearts that it was connected somehow. I never stopped believing. My time is now.
now that the numbered games are complete garbage im sure it was all worth it, even then, they didn't really connect, since X's event on earth and 2's event on earth don't match
XC: Earth changed because of a guy with god complex XC2: Earth changed because the guy with a god complex thought he did it for the better of the planet XCX: Fuck Earth *boom*
There is no Low orbital Station in this cutscene, no artificial ring arround the earth, no sirens... Also in Klaus world, it was a rebillion who attacked the Gouverment, not an alien race, also the earth blowes up in X while in Klaus world it is still there and became alrest... The list of differends is endless
@@Annishark Planets are big we only see less than half of it, it's very clear that the later games are trying to retcon XBCX to fit in with the timeline the same way they did with XBC1.
@@Missiletainn The ring is arround the hole planet (and according to the art book there are multiple spacelift like the world tree), Sirens and all the other stuff are intredouced after XCX and we see the debris of the planet... Its nothing more then fans trying their hardest to put to pieces together who just dont fit at all
@@Annishark There was also no Conduit in the space station, a space rebellion, or Alvis core crystal in Xenoblade 1 but they did a few retcons to make it work with Xenoblade 2. For a while Alvis being Ontos was just a fan theory until definitive edition and future redeemed made the proper connections. There's many ways they can retcon Xenoblade X if they choose to tie it in to the trilogy in the future. From Xenoblade 1 and Xenoblade 2 we see how the events slightly change based on the perspective of who's recalling the past(Alvis in 1, Klaus in 2). In Xenoblade X most of the people were in stasis during the White Whale's voyage and we know the government was lying to the people about many things so Earth blowing up could have been one of those lies.
@@sentoworf Thats completly nonsensical, they would retcon the complete background lore... in XC2 they add lore, they didnt retcon (beside making a spacestation a spacelift) The technology is differend, the Lore is differend, everything is differend, its just fans who want to connect something wich realy isnt and They made it clear in XC2 that it is not the same universe, there is nothing to diskus
Well, there may be a little bit of referencing here. I mean, the purple ship certainly looks very organic and free moving, whereas the other ship looks much more mechanical, calculated, and organized. Except at this point we're being killed by both.
@@yagirlada Oh was there Saga stuff in Future Redeemed? I haven't played any Monolithsoft games earlier than Xenoblade 1. Gears and Saga are definitely on my list though, along with Baten Kaitos [the English dub specifically lol]
@AortaPlatinum Yes! The logo in the radio and the people mentioned are related to Saga, especially, so they're definitely worth checking out! Gears too! Both are peak!
It does, colors and format match. Thinking about it, we dont actually know how origin was created, exactly. Who made it specifically, and gave the knowledge to melia, nia and tora to help build it? Maybe it was an alien civillization, just like how Elma in X warned the humans beforehand that they should do something about the incoming disaster that would happen.
It's downright criminal that this game is relegated to the WiiU; I love when people would tell me "There are no good games on the WiiU", I'd just stare 'em dead in the eye and say "If there aren't any good games on the WiiU, then why are they all being ported to the Switch?" Besides, I'd also point to this gem. I know the creators said that a Switch port is not likely to happen, but I can only ever hope. This game NEEDS a port! It is TOO good to ignore! And I'm not just saying that because this game hits all the right notes for me.
+Deus Blade Ah, thought so. I'm quite pleased at how this dub is shaping up to be. The so-called "censorships" (which are really very minor compared to the rest of the game) ain't gonna stop me from buying it.
Turnajon one is lyn(which is alright since shes 13) and the bust slider which is kinda controversial since most character creators always have breast sliders and none are censored. but at least some of the more revealing costumes for other characters are untouched
+Deus Blade Honestly, it's not a major big deal to me, although I can understand why some would be upset. Hopefully the game will still do well in America, though; it's been a long time coming and I can't wait for it. The English voice acting sounds great to my ears.
+untamedwookiee I'm pretty sure she's also Airi from Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2 Overclocked. I love that game/series. She's a damn good voice actress. Elma also sounds alot like Makoto from the same game. Happy to know they used stellar voice actors for X.
Is it weird to say that everything within the first minute of this video is my favorite part of the opening? Two foreign ships of unknown but decimating power approach the Earth, our home, to exterminate the species of vermin called humanity. The foreboding and haunting absence of music reminds you of the emptiness of space, whose darkness engulfs an artifact of the soon to be extinct beings of Earth. It's as if you're experiencing the last minute before staring death in the eye, before feeling your flesh succumb and decay to the burns induced by the radioactive explosions on earth, before losing bits of your body to projectile beams from alien species, before hearing the shrilling screams of citizens and children with widened eyes and hanging mouths as they stare right into and being engulfed by their demise, at the hands of those who cannot be touched by anyone. And people say Nintendo's for kids, when in fact, their kickass developers are making awesome cutscenes. Seriously, this is beginning to be up there with Earthbound's final battle in terms of unsettling atmosphere.
@@notthatthenamematters6163 eh, actually no, it is explained that they do want to destroy humanity thats the reason one of the alien species actually decided to chase humanity on their interstellar journey Why? who know, the story leaves that question unanswered
Did you play through Xenoblade? Xenosaga was great, but the story and narrative for this game pale in comparison to Xenoblade. They're still really, really good, but people who've actually played it consider Xenoblade a God among all video games. How far did you make it into Xenoblade?
I think I played about half of Xenoblade, about 30-40 hours. I'll definitely finish it someday, but I was a huge fan of Xenosaga and preferred the story and overall style of it.
Sorry to rain your parade friend, but 30-40 hours is nowhere near halfway through. Its much, much longer than that. I'll agree that Xenosaga was good, and this is too. But the story and narrative of this game are about a fraction of Xenoblade's. This game is much more focused on exploration and customization, whereas Xenoblade focused on story and narrative. Most people who drop it halfway through will always find it lackluster because again, it's a story game more than a combat based one. "I'll definitely finish it someday" These words killed me inside. I really think you're missing out by not finishing it, since it hooks you more and more the farther you get. In the end it's your choice though.
Bucket Suu No need to apologize, and there is no parade to rain on, since this is all a matter of opinion anyway. I agree that Xenoblade is more story-driven than Xenoblade X, but Xenosaga is also heavily story-driven, and I preferred its story over Xenoblade. It is true that I should finish the game before making a final judgment, but I feel that I experienced a large enough sample of the game to make a judgment. If the story doesn't hook me after 40 hours, then it's not as good as Xenosaga (or Xenogears), which hooked me from the start. Lol, why would those words kill you inside? I said I *am* going to finish the game. Maybe we can chat more when I do.
I personally found it better than Xenosaga, but that's just me. I'm surprised you weren't hooked in 3 hours to be honest. Xenoblade's flaw though was how enormous it is (story and map wise). Sad to say, most people don't end up dropping it, but a lot do end up simply not having enough time to finish it. I hope you put more than 40 hours into this game though, considering that's the average time it takes to get a Skell.
@@oux3456 that could still be true from his perspective. Keep in mind that only a few people (such as those on the Earthlife Colonization Project board) knew about the aliens coming. The Rhadamanthus tower/space station was being bombarded by the rebels (presumably the Saviorites). There was likely enough chaos and confusion on that part of the world that those in the tower didn’t even realize that there was an alien war in another part of the world.
This is why the GotY is shit, because all the games who will get out in december will nevers participated. We should call it "Game of the firsts eleven month".
*Spoilers* I've heard from some people that THAT Ares Skell actually has a dual cockpit (According to art book). So, in theory, that "lone" hero could've been Elma and one mysterious person.
Oh yeah I remember someone saying that now that you are mentioning it. Do we know for certain that Elma was one of the operators in the dual cockpit skell? Or is it possible we have two unknown "lone heroes"?
YolmzWelra Could also not be Elma, but in a cutscene (The one where you obtain the Vita) Vandham mentions something about "Your [Elma's] Skell, the Ares." Can't remember the exact quote, but I remember Vandham, or one of the others important guys (Nagi, and the Director), mentioning something about Elma's skell being an Ares.
YolmzWelra Okay, I got the quote "If you ask me, that's time better spent studying that Ares of yours, Elma Ah right, you wouldn't know what I'm talking about, would you? The Ares is what Elma..." Chauson interrupts him with "Vandham" and Elma looks away, stopping discussion.
it's funny i thought this happens next right after Shulk just saved the world from a greedy god but still ends up getting destroyed anyways but later on i realized this whole story has nothing to do with Shulk's world not even related it's like Shulk's planet is in a other galaxy living in peace
SPOILER/POST-GAME REWATCH BONUS: You can spot the Ganglion's Vita in the fray at about 2:30 in, SMASH-DUNKING A HUGE CHUNK OF A SPACESHIP INTO EARTH WITH ONE STRIKE. Just as well that thing was 'crippled' during the game itself, otherwise it might have been close to impossible to beat (except maybe as some kinda special bonus boss). Damn thing was STILL a huge pain to deal with!
So wait, did the war took place all surrounding on Earth cos it look like the battle took place on one side on Earth? Otherwise the other ship especially the oppersite of the battle would had escaped?
I don't understand the story anymore all I understand is that a planet like earth was attacked by aliens that look like robots and the people on that plant have mechs just like the ones from the first game even though there from another planet and they crash landed on a new planet. How exactly is this Xenoblade Chronicles anymore ? And also is any of the old characters still in the game what? And finally did they land on one of the to robots from the first game?
J123Gamer The story we know so far is the Earth was caught in a crossfire between two alien races, and during the battle Earth began rotting away. To preserve their species, the humans built ships carrying the people of Earth along with cities, in order to find a new planet to rebuild on. Unfortunately, the aliens caught up with them, and many were destroyed, except for a few; one of which crashed lands on the alien planet Mira. You're one of these people, and your job is to find the others, and repopulate the planet. But the aliens forces have found you and the rest of your kind, and are prepared to destroy them. That's all we really know so far.
@@UCu5gjzXvp21vqXJOFrSiJkBXuw because its kinda is, monolith software is part of team that making Xenogear, but its because of rushing job and they prioritize the FF 7 first then the workload become unimaginable.
This doesn't sound as interesting as I hoped. The first one drew me in a lot more. This just seems like pretty standard alien invasion stuff. There's not even a cliff hanger or anything to make you wonder what's coming up.
+Venom "Punished" Snake uh, so you have a reason to want to play the game. There's not much incentive to do anything here beyond, "you need to survive"
+Tony Green The hell are you talking about? A) Why are you randomly insulting people for no reason? B) What does art style have to do with voice acting?
***** no, other ships. And yes, according to the narration here others made it. Which to me seems like a natural path for a sequel. Following other ark ships on their fight for survival, each on its own strange alien world. Perhaps one or two even still have their ship in tact, orbiting. That would be sick. And of course, have the arks slowly reach out and find each other. Would be another interesting source of potential conflict as they may not all agree on approaches to survival and negotiations.
@@Nuvendil well, considering that the universe is ever expanding and that those ships traveled for many, many years, the hope to find each other is really low
Final Fantasy, though there may be some connection. It's hinted and suggested though, not out right stated. Have you played Xenoblade Chronicles? I would explain the theory, but don't wish to spoil :P
Literally you kinda predicted Xenoblade 3 plot. However it's impossible because the war around rhamadamus was a conflict with a rebel faction called Saviorite
@@catalyst539 It doesn't disproves it. But the rebel part might have happened at the same time because of the chaos and panic as the aliens attack each other. And that would cause even more chaos. Fed up with this war nonsense, Klaus accidentally destroyed the universe and ripped it in two.
+atflaco Fire Emblem games have more dialogue than this game and they get dubbed to various languages. There better be an option for Japanese audio. There's no reason for there not to be.
Watch gamexplains video on their impressions. Andre played 40hrs and one of the first questions he answered was that it is only in english. No japanese option.
+The Elephant Nop, the purple aliens aren't the mysterious Samarians, first because they will not try to destroy the humains, second because they didn't just create a failsafe on us, they have still there's owns failsafe.
Mark my Words: *XC3 is gonna be a prequel to the entire franchise* Just think about it! Are they just gonna continue in the XC1 universe? Or the second? And probaly ruin them? ORRRR, are they going to give us a prequel and go more into detail on this "Saviorite Rebels" that were mentioned in XC2? And the ongoing war at that time. More of Klaus and Meyneth! Explore the land of Morytha before it was destroyed by war and Klaus! I'm predicting that XC3 will be the story of the events leading to Klaus' actions.. And a reveal of a 3RD alternate reality of when Klaus was STOPPED! What if there was a 3rd universe? WHAT IF Klaus made 3? The 3rd one being an exact copy of the original. The ONLY difference was, Klaus disappeared from THAT universe, and was in the other 2? An alternate reality where KLAUS DID NOT DESTROY EVERYTHING! But instead, sent himself and Meyneth to the other 2! And bcuz Klaus FUCKED with the universe in the 3rd one, PURPLE ALIENS GOT MAD AND CAME TO WIPE OUT HUMANITY AND DESTROYED EARTH. The beginning of XENOBLADE X! And XC3 CONNECTING XCX TO THE MAIN FRANCHISE! I remember in the XCX opening cutscene mentioning an invasion they saw coming and prepared colony ships ready to leave Earth. It was bcuz of Klaus' experiments! The "Saviorite Rebels trying to stop him, know the consequences! He tampered with that Meta Universe Manifold thing (Disappeared along with Meyneth into the other 2 universes) and the Aliens didn't appreiciate that and came to wipe out humanity and destroy the planet. XC3 ends where XCX begins! That'd mean XCX happened *A long time ago in a Universe far, far away* ITS PERFECT!! Note: I haven't played the XCX. I only saw the beginning cutscene. Which is why I made this theory. And pls don't spoil. Just tell me if the aliens had other reasons or whatever. And don't say why. I'm waiting for X to come to NS But this is ALL just a theory. A GAME Theory
Love this theory. I wonder how they gonna approach the fact that XC3 is a 3rd univers. Because if we see the scene with Klaus and Meyneyth, everyone is gonna know what will happen. And if Klaus is stop, everyone would go crazy, and will need some solid explanation that explains the univers splitting in 3 at that time. May be, Kosmos in Xenosaga who can jump from univers to univers, research the zohar find by Klaus, and stemble across different univers where Klaus use the power of the zohar, and finally a version where Klaus is stopped, and the Zohard goes with the lifehold. I've not finish XCX sooo, don't know etheir. But yes, it would be sooo cool to have a XC3 with Klaus as the protagonist.

Lol, why would those words kill you inside? I said I *am* going to finish the game. Maybe we can chat more when I do.
I personally found it better than Xenosaga, but that's just me. I'm surprised you weren't hooked in 3 hours to be honest. Xenoblade's flaw though was how enormous it is (story and map wise). Sad to say, most people don't end up dropping it, but a lot do end up simply not having enough time to finish it. I hope you put more than 40 hours into this game though, considering that's the average time it takes to get a Skell.
Before the Earth exploded I swear I see a tree like structure on the top of it...interesting.
Jorge Sanchez 👀
Where?
3:16. It's brief, but there is a tree.
as much as i wish it was a tree, its just the crazy purple alien mothership
This is a different Universe too. In this Universe humans suddently appeared out of nowhere... Klaus sent all these humans to these universe
Well now... this puts a whole new perspective on Klaus' motivations to use the Conduit/Zohar...
Yep. And the Conduit could be why the two alien civilizations showed up in the first place.
But in x2 Klaus said that it was a war agaisnt some rebels , no aliens mentioned
@@oux3456 that could still be true from his perspective. Keep in mind that only a few people (such as those on the Earthlife Colonization Project board) knew about the aliens coming. The Rhadamanthus tower/space station was being bombarded by the rebels (presumably the Saviorites). There was likely enough chaos and confusion on that part of the world that those in the tower didn’t even realize that there was an alien war in another part of the world.
@@oux3456 And Alvis didn't mention the other trinity cores and didn't have a core himself in the original xenoblade
I've 100% completed the game, but I'n still here. Strange
Loser.
Paul Wall Excuse me, I lost what?
@@Legacy309 you lost my respect
@@paulwall9282 for what? Viewing again the intro of one of my favorite games? I couldn't care less, sucker! Get a life
You get a life, Legacy! I'm good, you are not
so the origin is in xenoblade x ...
I played xenoblade x for like 350 hours
I literally remember nothing of this
Shame this game isn't going to make it for the Game Awards this year. =/
+XDarkEcho F*ck 'em!
This is why the GotY is shit, because all the games who will get out in december will nevers participated. We should call it "Game of the firsts eleven month".
it just got nominated this year tho
Please switch port pleeeease 😭😭😭😭
The one that got shot down was New Pyongyang, wasn't it
Once you experience Xenogears you will compare every other game to it LOL
At 3:49, who do you think the lone hero is, it might be Elma, but that is just a guess
+EnderPika I was wondering about that too. But didn't Elma at some point (can't remember where though >
*Spoilers*
I've heard from some people that THAT Ares Skell actually has a dual cockpit (According to art book). So, in theory, that "lone" hero could've been Elma and one mysterious person.
Oh yeah I remember someone saying that now that you are mentioning it. Do we know for certain that Elma was one of the operators in the dual cockpit skell? Or is it possible we have two unknown "lone heroes"?
YolmzWelra Could also not be Elma, but in a cutscene (The one where you obtain the Vita) Vandham mentions something about "Your [Elma's] Skell, the Ares." Can't remember the exact quote, but I remember Vandham, or one of the others important guys (Nagi, and the Director), mentioning something about Elma's skell being an Ares.
YolmzWelra Okay, I got the quote "If you ask me, that's time better spent studying that Ares of yours, Elma Ah right, you wouldn't know what I'm talking about, would you? The Ares is what Elma..." Chauson interrupts him with "Vandham" and Elma looks away, stopping discussion.
Wow this game is like an mix of xenoblade and halo
And so our story begins...
Is that a Space Odyssey reference I see?
I mean. That's one way to start off your game
it's funny i thought this happens next right after Shulk just saved the world from a greedy god but still ends up getting destroyed anyways but later on i realized this whole story has nothing to do with Shulk's world not even related it's like Shulk's planet is in a other galaxy living in peace
SPOILER/POST-GAME REWATCH BONUS:
You can spot the Ganglion's Vita in the fray at about 2:30 in, SMASH-DUNKING A HUGE CHUNK OF A SPACESHIP INTO EARTH WITH ONE STRIKE. Just as well that thing was 'crippled' during the game itself, otherwise it might have been close to impossible to beat (except maybe as some kinda special bonus boss). Damn thing was STILL a huge pain to deal with!
GETTTTT DUNKED ON!!!!!! *BOOM*
the dunk that summoned a continent sized vortex
So wait, did the war took place all surrounding on Earth cos it look like the battle took place on one side on Earth? Otherwise the other ship especially the oppersite of the battle would had escaped?
I don't understand the story anymore all I understand is that a planet like earth was attacked by aliens that look like robots and the people on that plant have mechs just like the ones from the first game even though there from another planet and they crash landed on a new planet. How exactly is this Xenoblade Chronicles anymore ? And also is any of the old characters still in the game what? And finally did they land on one of the to robots from the first game?
+J123Gamer It's a spiritual successor; not related in terms of story or characters at all.
+AshXXMayftw ok thank u that lights this up for me so where did the land though?
+J123Gamer This is just a spiritual successor. Not a direct sequel.
+AshXXMayftw by the by nice Chanel im gonna sub to u
J123Gamer
The story we know so far is the Earth was caught in a crossfire between two alien races, and during the battle Earth began rotting away. To preserve their species, the humans built ships carrying the people of Earth along with cities, in order to find a new planet to rebuild on. Unfortunately, the aliens caught up with them, and many were destroyed, except for a few; one of which crashed lands on the alien planet Mira. You're one of these people, and your job is to find the others, and repopulate the planet. But the aliens forces have found you and the rest of your kind, and are prepared to destroy them. That's all we really know so far.
So guys how we feeling after Future Redeemed huh
Hype!
This takes place in the xenogears universe, but unless the creators can get the rights from square Enix, it’s a ...spiritual successor
Why do you think that?
@@UCu5gjzXvp21vqXJOFrSiJkBXuw because its kinda is, monolith software is part of team that making Xenogear, but its because of rushing job and they prioritize the FF 7 first then the workload become unimaginable.
But if they want to "merged" up to the lore, I think saga has more chances to be merged with the blade series, rather than gears.
totally no xenosaga references here...........
This doesn't sound as interesting as I hoped. The first one drew me in a lot more. This just seems like pretty standard alien invasion stuff. There's not even a cliff hanger or anything to make you wonder what's coming up.
+Stephen Rivera lol ok
So we need a cliff hanger so you can wait for the beginning of the game to start?
+Venom "Punished" Snake uh, so you have a reason to want to play the game. There's not much incentive to do anything here beyond, "you need to survive"
+Stephen Rivera If aliens blew up the earth I would want to get revenge on them, I think that's enough for me to play the game...
Venom "Punished" Snake Yeah, this game has nothing to push you to wanna play it. The first one at least had the Monado you were learning about.
Are there Japanese voice options in the game?
@necropig: There is too much content on a single disc to include the japanese voices.
yes of course. in this cutscene gamexplan it has change the dub in american dub.
+mike “stone cold” Austin Xenoblade Chronicles X isn't dual audio. English VA only.
+Tony Green The hell are you talking about? A) Why are you randomly insulting people for no reason? B) What does art style have to do with voice acting?
+MarioFanGamer Ok cheers
The Covenant vs Hitmarker Ships
+William “xXDreadFighTa420Xx” Eden Correction; the Hitmarker Ships are the Covenant M̶a̶n̶t̶i̶s̶G̶h̶o̶s̶t̶ Skells?
2:32 spoilers*
That's the Vita!!!!!!!!
3:49 And that's the Prog Ares.
can you give me some context about? what it is?
"only a small handful"
So....where are the others?
+GalaxyLdragoX You have to find them throughout the game.
***** no, other ships. And yes, according to the narration here others made it. Which to me seems like a natural path for a sequel. Following other ark ships on their fight for survival, each on its own strange alien world. Perhaps one or two even still have their ship in tact, orbiting. That would be sick. And of course, have the arks slowly reach out and find each other. Would be another interesting source of potential conflict as they may not all agree on approaches to survival and negotiations.
Well, I'm not sure about you guys, but my hand would be full trying to hold even one of those ships, so maybe it's the only one that makes it?
@@Nuvendil well, considering that the universe is ever expanding and that those ships traveled for many, many years, the hope to find each other is really low
Der große Xeno Krieg
interesting game!!!!
Pokemon vs Zelda (One looks like a Pokeball and the other a Triforce)
Can we have Ridley in the game?
+Omni G he's too big
BlaizeTheDragon
bigger than the overworld of this game?
+Omni G Yes. He's fifty times as large as the overworld.
the game is in spanish?
+Benjamin Mella Nein.
I think Valerian may have plagiarised this scene...
the story is very...Macross.
Yup, agree . xD
Oh hey 2:31 - 2:35 that's the Vita.
so is this a secuel or a precuel of the original xenoblade?,or a final fantasy type secuel?
Final Fantasy, though there may be some connection. It's hinted and suggested though, not out right stated. Have you played Xenoblade Chronicles? I would explain the theory, but don't wish to spoil :P
+Nuvendil well i actually am replaying the game since 2 years so...your choice
July,some random number, things I don't give a shit about, legend of Zelda references
Kind of sad that the British voices are gone though
+Geronimo-Moonblast voice options
British or american
+kenneth kujala Wendee Lee confirmed that it will have some British voice actors in the game.
+Geronimo-Moonblast Wouldn't make sense though since the game's surviving city is Los Angeles. ... or New Los Angeles
And the Bionis and Mechonis were in an entirely different dimension, yet people still spoke English. None of this stuff makes sense, just accept it.
what if Zanza is working for Project Exodus attempt to create an alternative world for the humans consciusness stored in the Lifehold?
Literally you kinda predicted Xenoblade 3 plot. However it's impossible because the war around rhamadamus was a conflict with a rebel faction called Saviorite
@@oux3456
Xenoblade 3 Future Redeemed disproves that.
@@catalyst539 It doesn't disproves it. But the rebel part might have happened at the same time because of the chaos and panic as the aliens attack each other. And that would cause even more chaos. Fed up with this war nonsense, Klaus accidentally destroyed the universe and ripped it in two.
It's not bad... but there better be an option for Japanese audio.
there isnt. too much dialogue for two languages.
+atflaco Fire Emblem games have more dialogue than this game and they get dubbed to various languages.
There better be an option for Japanese audio. There's no reason for there not to be.
Thats the excuse they are using. To answer your question... no, only english.
+atflaco Sourse/proof? ;)
Watch gamexplains video on their impressions. Andre played 40hrs and one of the first questions he answered was that it is only in english. No japanese option.
🎶on that day when the sky fell away, our world came to an end🎶
By the way you never see those purple aliens in the game ever again because plot holes
Those "purple aliens" are the mysterious Samarians
This plot isn't over
+The Elephant Nop, the purple aliens aren't the mysterious Samarians, first because they will not try to destroy the humains, second because they didn't just create a failsafe on us, they have still there's owns failsafe.
This narration reminds me of Other M. Nintendo needs better voice actors and they need to learn to "show, don't tell" with games like these.
+Stephen Rivera Oh stuff it. What they did here is fine. The narration is only for the prologue anyway.
+Stephen Rivera They're both showing and telling in this video.
Mark my Words: *XC3 is gonna be a prequel to the entire franchise*
Just think about it!
Are they just gonna continue in the XC1 universe? Or the second? And probaly ruin them?
ORRRR, are they going to give us a prequel and go more into detail on this "Saviorite Rebels" that were mentioned in XC2? And the ongoing war at that time. More of Klaus and Meyneth! Explore the land of Morytha before it was destroyed by war and Klaus! I'm predicting that XC3 will be the story of the events leading to Klaus' actions.. And a reveal of a 3RD alternate reality of when Klaus was STOPPED!
What if there was a 3rd universe? WHAT IF Klaus made 3? The 3rd one being an exact copy of the original. The ONLY difference was, Klaus disappeared from THAT universe, and was in the other 2? An alternate reality where KLAUS DID NOT DESTROY EVERYTHING! But instead, sent himself and Meyneth to the other 2!
And bcuz Klaus FUCKED with the universe in the 3rd one, PURPLE ALIENS GOT MAD AND CAME TO WIPE OUT HUMANITY AND DESTROYED EARTH. The beginning of XENOBLADE X! And XC3 CONNECTING XCX TO THE MAIN FRANCHISE!
I remember in the XCX opening cutscene mentioning an invasion they saw coming and prepared colony ships ready to leave Earth.
It was bcuz of Klaus' experiments! The "Saviorite Rebels trying to stop him, know the consequences! He tampered with that Meta Universe Manifold thing (Disappeared along with Meyneth into the other 2 universes) and the Aliens didn't appreiciate that and came to wipe out humanity and destroy the planet. XC3 ends where XCX begins!
That'd mean XCX happened *A long time ago in a Universe far, far away*
ITS PERFECT!!
Note: I haven't played the XCX. I only saw the beginning cutscene. Which is why I made this theory. And pls don't spoil. Just tell me if the aliens had other reasons or whatever. And don't say why. I'm waiting for X to come to NS
But this is ALL just a theory. A GAME Theory
Thats kinda stupid, makes the land of morytha and the monsters there a bunch less impactful, as they're just copies and not the actual aftermath.
Love this theory. I wonder how they gonna approach the fact that XC3 is a 3rd univers. Because if we see the scene with Klaus and Meyneyth, everyone is gonna know what will happen. And if Klaus is stop, everyone would go crazy, and will need some solid explanation that explains the univers splitting in 3 at that time.
May be, Kosmos in Xenosaga who can jump from univers to univers, research the zohar find by Klaus, and stemble across different univers where Klaus use the power of the zohar, and finally a version where Klaus is stopped, and the Zohard goes with the lifehold.
I've not finish XCX sooo, don't know etheir. But yes, it would be sooo cool to have a XC3 with Klaus as the protagonist.
...I've got news for ya pal
And in the end, it turns out that NONE OF THIS WAS TRUE AT ALL!
