- Late night surprise video drop. I already wanted to play this game but Monolith keeps giving us trailers and I'm not complaining. I have no idea what I'm in for with this game but I'm excited to experience it!

it's personally very important to me to archive my entire xenoblade x experience so each trailer is getting a video lmao. i don't know anything about this game other than what the trailers have shown me so in order to avoid spoilers/foreshadowing/backseating i probably won't read any comments.
EXCITED TO PLAY THIS!!! see ya'll in a few months when i start the game.
9:15 😂 omg I can't believe how you said it. Definitely cooking with that comment & I like it 😂👍. I hope you have a great time playing it & it's online mode this march!
Quick note that this is not the same universe as the numbered Xenoblade games. Using Future Redeemed as a reference point isn't how I would go into X.
@@cameroncooper5941Although true, Xenoblade trio had an impact into the story of XCX (This is proven with the DLC of XCX1). Future redeemed I don’t think has anything to do in relation with XCX.
@PermanentViolet “Ryan” is not an actual character, but rather a character you created. XCX tried to go the general “You are the main character” route instead of you role playing a certain character.
@@mr.potato2399 I wasn't arguing X is completely unrelated. She just started talking about what year Future Redeemed's flashback takes place as if X contradicted it by being set in 2054. The Earth the X cast comes from is not the same Earth as seen in Future Redeemed, or the other numbered games. That was my point.
I love that most of the "new" content is just stuff from the original that they had to cut from the main game and only included in an artbook. Monolith really just making the Xeno X they originally wanted to make.
Honestly, the added cut content could change so many things with new context and such. I'm excited, especially with getting past the huge cliffhanger, lol.
I will say that the newly added cut content might not be as descripted in the Artbooks, as they used concepts originally created for Xenoblade X in Xenoblade 2 and 3.already. Then again, it might help to connect X to the main games if they are going for this
I think the plan for X was to bring more content DLCs like a MMO.
Nah they aren't, X is and will continue to be a disappointment. I appreciate the new additions and hope they include more than I think, but they sticked to the custom character instead of the proper protagonist X was originally intended to have. Almost all bosses don't have plot relevance and I doubt they are completely revamping the story which they'd need to do.
All for the sake of some crappy multiplayer experience that had you wait for minutes to land in a mission where the goal was completed in literal seconds.
@@herredgy not every game needs a huge focus on story, this is a game at the end of the day and it does its job very well
Moby Dick may be a story about revenge from Ahab's perspective but from the Whale's perspective, it's about survival. So maybe Humanity are the whale being hunted out of revenge.
As a fella that played through the WiiU version, you HAVE DUG TOO DEEP
Fun fact: There is no fall damage in Xenoblade X so you can just jump off anything and survive, it's pretty fun ngl
DUDE
THAT NEW ZONE PROVED THEY WORKED ON TEARS OF THE KINGDOM
They've been making stuff for Nintendo for years. They even helped with Splatoon 2 and 3 for some reason.
That was already confirmed. They made the open world land of Breath of the wild as well
They already worked on Skyward Sword and Link between worlds and also Animal crossing New leaf, New horizon and Pikmin 3
They're helping Zelda team with environment since Skyward Sword.
"Ryan" is a player-generated character. Also, it's not as much Blade as B.L.A.D.E. (iykyk)
They put so much effort into having the acronym spell out "blade" that it's hilarious.
Words can't express how excited I am for this video game. THE UI LOOKS SO NICE NOW. Oh, it's peak. 🙌
I have never been as hyped for a game as I was in 2015 but some of the original game features were just infuriating.
Ryan isn't even the name of the character officially. The characters name officially is Cross.
If I remember correctly, XCX's world is about 5 times bigger than Skyrim
2054 TC is the year Lost Jerusalem (Earth) disappeared in Xenosaga. Combine that with the blatant radio references to Saga in FR and the numerous references to Frontier Village in X, it makes me wonder if putting 2054 in the trailer name is foreshadowing some slight retcons to add X to canon.
Nintendo got a little confused what year we were in with that trailer title. Haha. All seriousness this game is one of my absolute favorites even among Xenoblade, so looking forward to this expanded revisit
Everyone: squeeing, theory crafting, and nerding out over this new trailer.
Me: "how tf does she go back frame by frame!?"

It’s good to know new Xenoblade fans are experiencing the same kind of wild conspiracies trying to put X and the rest of the series together.
8:32 That’s funny! I didn’t payed attention to the ear rings myself till she mentioned them and knowing why they coughed her eye, I got a little shocked myself. Where seeing Zohar’s shape objects where we don’t expect. That’s the xenoblade brainrot taking over us 😂
20XX or XX is often used to make a date not really specific.
It is a placeholder for everything between 2001 - 2099
What's playing in the background on the radio is more of a lore connection to the Xenosaga games that came out on the PS2.
Most of what is mentioned on the radio refers to things that happened in the story of Xenosaga.
However, things from Xenoblade X (Cross) are also more or less included, even if nothing is mentioned directly that relates directly to Xenoblade X.
my go to channel for everything xenoblade
Xenoblade X is cool. It is a systems game vs a story game for me though. Definitely made me cry a lot less. Also such a different pivot with the music, it really feels like an alternate universe Xenoblade with different things emphasized. Excited to watch you play it :-)
I'm so pumped for this! You should put this trailer and the original Xenoblade Chronicles X exploration trailer they made years ago side by side just to see the comparisons between the two.
Very excited for you to be able to experience the game fresh. Honestly, for a lot of us who played and loved the original, I feel like this DE will still feel like experiencing it for the first time
Take a closer look at the scene near the end with the mech(Skell) flying and blowing up enemies, they all seem to have a familiar circular object (The Skell has 4 atleast)
The characters of Xenonlade X aren't colonizers, the alien races are chasing down the humans to extinct the human race, they just crash on a planet after surviving an alien attack.
Protip: watch the UK version of the trailers because they're all subtitled!
Xenoblade x has some of the best battle banter in the series, I won't spoil why that is, but there's so many hilarious quotes.
This game was exactly why Monolith was chosen to make maps for Breath of the Wild.
As for Ryan, it's probably just a random player name. In JP trailer he's still クロス (Cross/X).
As far as I checked Luxaar is the leader of the Ganglion and the final boss in the original game.
Let's try not posting blatant spoilers in the comments of someone who hasn't played the game before.
One of the reasons people say that X can’t be canon with the other games is that in X they LEFT the original earth on the White Whale, while in the Future Redeemed cutscene it’s pretty clear that it’s supposed to be THE earth (also why it’s connected with Saga)
Obviously anything is possible with pocket universes being created/merged/ended, but so far most people believe X to just be a standalone story/world, and any mention of it in the Future Redeemed cutscene is purely referential
The universe where X happens is our universe, the white whale has an USA flag on it
I'll just say - if you're looking for direct connections to the rest of the Xenoblade saga, none of the 'obvious' ones (i.e. 'this event in Game A is the same thing as that event in Game B' level stuff) will work out, for certain reasons that should become obvious as soon as you get the full backstory. We have to get _creative_ (read: come up with our own ideas for how things _might_ work) to find direct connections in X, which is why its canonicity is still a hotly debated topic. But hey, we're here to have fun, right? And speculating is very fun.
so neat thing for all of us
base game of X doesn't cleanly fit in with the rest of Xenoblade more so since they seem to be brining in Saga stuff
so the extra content that is being added to this DE will be a real trip for all of us since if they are going to tie it in, it'll be there
so for all xenoblade fans old and new, we'll get to experience the answer to that mystery together
You saw only 40 % of the map on this trailer 😂
Very pertinent observation regarding Moby Dick.
It's incredible how we went from Xenoblade 1 with nothing to now all 4 releases plus docs all on one system ❤ AND THEY RUN PERFECTLY *cough* Pokémon *cough*
Yeah Pokemon needs to be worked with Monolith Soft and Game Freak. Make it happen Game Freak.
Have a happy new year PermanentViolet
Loving the new content, UI and better tutorial for the Overdrive system.
Hi!
I just came from your Ocarina of Time video (which was great by the way) and thought that, if you haven't already played them, you would probably enjoy Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2.
Very Zelda adjacent, though quite different tonally.
There are other Legacy of Kain games as well, but I only have experience with Soul Reaver aside from watching a let's play of Defiance which follows on from it. It works as a standalone quite nicely though and explains everything you really need from Blood Omen 1 which came before it.
If you do decide to play it then be sure to scour SR1 for secrets
If there's a mod, since she's not reading comments, could someone let her know that the character's canonical name is *Cross* ???
Someone must have name the character "Ryan" in the gameplay in the trailer. Basically you can name the character whatever you want. Just thought I'd say that if any mod or member of her trusted community wants to let her know later
I hope someone lets her know the official name of the character is Cross. She can name them whatever she wants but I think it's important she atleast knows the real name cause she's gonna end up thinking it's Ryan 🤣
Moby Dick and Obsession were good catches , you could say that the Enemies in the game are obsessed with killing everyone who was on the white whale.
But generally , im just happy that newcomers can finally play this game because its not stuck on a dead console anymore.
Music just like everything else is very different from the other XC games ... Music is made by Hiroyuki Sawano , you know , the guy who made the first couple Attack on Titan Soundtracks.
The music at the end sounds more in line with music from 2 and 3, so maybe they couldn’t get sawano back for the new content
@@oracle222 yeah i was thinking the same , what a shame
Originally, Xenoblade X has been mostly a standalone. In Future Redeemed there were a couple nod/references to X that could indicate that its somehow connected. And with the new content, theres always the possibility that it will connect in some way Who knows. But yes what you said about the Radio thing in Future Redeemed, that is something that could be a reference to a possible X connection.
We'll just have to wait and find out when we play 👌
Re: Moby Dick, wouldn't it be a story about survival from the whales perspective?
7:02 I hope so too cause I've already seen someone else reacting to the trailer and getting half the colors wrong 😅
Youre not really a colonizer, its more complicated and throughtful than that
Yes, though it falls into the same tropes.
@melephs_cap Nope, what you're doing is well contextualized in the first set of cutscenes
@@twincherries6698 That's not what I'm talking about. The premise very closely resembles colonial propaganda: an uninhabited exotic world that you get to be the first people to explore and mine for value - and when you do find intelligent peoples (unintelligent life gets killed indiscriminately in the field with no repercussions), they _want_ to join your society, and they don't need any kind of systemic accommodations to prosper. This, unfortunately, is exactly how colonial powers want people to think.
And while no, humans aren't colonizers exactly, a large proportion of them are unregulated military freelancers in an unquestioned statocracy. This is more like police propaganda, which is a more modern concern.
XC2 also marked the "destruction of earth" as 20XX
2054 in X is the year the earth was destroyed
I know people say it can't be the same event since we see Earth blow up immediately in X but that didn't stop them from retconning Alvis and his necklace in 1 DE, and the experiment in 2. So I'm excited to see if they do something similar here to connect X to the other games.
Xenoblade X was such an underrated game because it came out on the Wii U, which was one of Nintendo’s worst selling consoles. I’m glad more people are about to experience how fun X is
Fair warning though X main Story is the weakest part of the game however all the side missions is where all the character development the lore and a lot of of the story is the game really wants you to explore Mira.
The game is the embodiment of if you see it, you can go to it. For instance, you could literally go to the final area of the game as soon as you do the tutorial however it would be a long run though
Plus, just like any other Xenoblade game there are hidden areas and scenic areas. I had a lot of fun when I played it back when I was like 14…(God I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since Xenoblade X came out) so you’ll have a lot of fun exploring the map.
The combat system is more like Xenoblade chronicles 1 with the whole difference of being instead of chain attack you have overdrive and arts have a secondary cooldown, which can either in power arts (basically just increasing in one teir) or allow immediate recast, depending on the art.
The character Ryan it’s only a placeholder because you get to make your own character.
Skells are also super customizable you get to color it as much as you want.
Lastly, the last bit of of the trailer, which is the “ new content” is actually stuff from the art book which was cut off from the main game due to time constraints and mainly focusing on the online portion of X during the life span of the Wii U.
It's so funny to see how many fans are absolutely adamant that the world of x is non-cannon and not connected to the numbered series... When Monolith has done so much on the Switch Xenoblade games to more explicitly connect them all. And we know there's going to be extra content in X Definitive.
On Wii U, X was left out there all on its own because the game didn't do well and was abandoned. It wasn't brought into the numbered series, because it was considered to be a failure. Monolith didn't even like talking about it, let alone talking about the possibility of bringing it back.
I think fans who are operating on the same knowledge and assumptions They had in the Wii U days should probably hold off making any absolute assertions (e.g. it's not canon!) until we see exactly what Monolith has decided to do with X in this definitive edition.
For the algorithm 🙏
If they're adding on to the story of the OG and patch up some of the plot issues/gameplay, i'll be really excited.
Amazing to see that you are excited for this one!!,
Here's an idea: if you want please check on stream the cutscene from Future Redeemed, and make some noted about the transmission from the radio, this will help a lot to make theories, and I will gladly join to see what you have to say, Maybe, just maybe youre right about the year in this game and that cuscene 👀 (month of the project is key)
Also write down plenty of names and things you hear, just sayin'
They need to make another X just to bring back Sawano to compose 😭💙
Hey! Do you want to play the last of us? Or maybe did you?
Xenoblade comments X
Xenoblade x isn't in the same universe as the trilogy though :o UNLESS they found a way to fit it in the same continuity 🤔
We'll just have to wait and see 👌 Future Redeemed does subtly hint to the potential connection and the fact that there's new content gives us the possibility that the devs might try to find a way. Also, if even new fans are seeing the possible connections/similarities, it does make it seem like there's a chance it could be connected. We'll just have to play X and find out :)
It's gonna be soon don't worry
Lol why do people side with the bugs? I don't get it.
Ryan is a player created character fyi
Still no multiplayer co-op allowing players to play the game together. No coty building to expand on the empty city spots that never get built.
You never played X op?
Xenoblade X is about coexistence too, you don't play as a colonizer
Yeah, the people in NLA have friendly relations with the natives of Mira, and it's a recurring theme that humans, for the most part, try to treat other species as equals, while the Ganglion treat them as subordinates at best.
@@gregoryhayes7569 That's not true at all. There's no shortage of human racists in XCX and you can even be one yourself.
Even though we literally have a colony?
@Dharengo Yeah. New LA on Mira is the result of a crash landing, they're just trying to survive. They don't instigate conflicts and they work to coexist with the wildlife and any other species. Elma says it right at the start of the game herself.
@@LordlyWeeb But we have a colony. We colonized the place.
I'm mostly excited for The post game. We see this Black night figure appeared before Lao and we are not told anything about it and he says nothing. I'm assuming that they were originally intending to have DLC but it never fell through because the The Wii u did not sell enough units for that to be profitable but now that the Nintendo switches out and they finally decide to Make A definitive edition we finally get an explanation of who this guy is and what he is doing. I'm curious if this will tie x to May 19th and I hope we get an X2 kind of like how there's a persona Q2.
Who the hell is Ryan?😂
Now it's Ryan time
@sentoworf 🤣🤣🤣 whata joka!
Regarding your comment at the begining, did you not play xenoblade 2?
You actually visit klaus world as well there, earth
Ooph. Nla night music is the worst.
Let me tell you as a colourblind person, it really sucks
Why do people keep talking about Future Redeemed? This is a different game. God dammit.
Future Redeemed subtly hinted to the possible connection. It actually stands to reason that even a new player would think there's some continuity to that. obviously any connection or relation to the other games is just a theory so far, but imagine if the devs tried to connect the story to the mainline trilogy. It would only make the world of Xenoblade more interesting in my eyes. But as it stands, you are correct that its currently just its own game. But many fans hope that its connected, and if even new fans see the similarities too then its possible that it could connect. We shall see 👌
@@granddaddyotaku636 I saw no such hint. Believe me, I've tried to look for it. I've even tried to ask people for the hint they saw.
@@Dharengo there's a radio broadcast in Future Redeemed that literally talks about Project Exodus, the same project named in Xenoblade X.
While it can be brushed off as a reference, it seems very on the nose for some people. There's a few other things but that in itself is one of the big subtle hints. Now we could all be wishful thinking of course, but the reference does allude to possible connections. Anyways we'll just have to wait to find out more
@@granddaddyotaku636 It doesn't even have to be a reference. "Project Exodus" is a common name for a project that's about leaving earth.
@@Dharengo true, but it's Xenoblade and they wouldn't necessarily have such a reference there for nothing. But who knows. Right now it's not officially connected so everything is just theory and speculation 👍
