Velvet: Sheesh Laphi you get angsty and try to suppress all human emotion when you're hungry. Eat a snickers! Better? Innominat: Better! Snickers - You're not you, when you'e hungry..And trying to turn mankind into emotionless zombies.
@@HarmonicVector I get that they must cut it short. But I think they cut some wrong ends. Also instead of having that yuri ending maybe they should let it have an open ending, play the game to find out.
"Young, Malakhim. What do you wish to give to the world?" *Raises the apple* Laphicet: "This apple!" Empyreans: "Really? Are you sure? Just a piece of a bitten apple?" Laphicet: "Hell yeah!" Empyreans: "Dude, seriously?" Laphicet: "Seriously."
Even if I didnt play it, I was so into the story. It was beautiful. they did a great job with voices, character, designs, the system looked fun and that story... wow. Those "What could have been" sketches are pretty sad... starting adventures together, being rescued by Magilou and Bienfu, sailing with Eizen, uknowingly bumping into Rokuro, being helped by Eleanor, and coming home to their littlelittle Phi for some family playtime and hunting.
Unfortunately Phi, that day won't come for quite some time and even you will fall. But fret not, one boy that burns the same flame as you should pull you, and the world, back into the light.
No Mercy! Wounds that won't heal! Carved into flesh! LETHAL PAIN! Ready to Die?! Think you can dodge? Just try! PERFECT MAYHEM! Killing Flash! Behold the artes of my ancestors! RANGETSU STYLE: HERON! Here it comes! Resound, arise! Become the blade of destruction! LOSTFON DRIVE! Now! Army of Immortals, FORTY-NINE SOULS! Will you withstand their assault? Or will you fall before them? This is the end! Spirits release! I stand in the light of the heavens! Cower before the gates of Hell! Come forth, divine lightning! This ends now! INDIGNATION!
I believe 2 things 1. Along with knowing that he would destroy the world, Velvet decided to seal herself with Innominat (Laphicet), to make up for the pain she caused. 2. The pictures you see during the credits are the dreams that Velvet and Laphicet hoped to achieve. They both wanted to travel the world so it makes sense. Any other thoughts are welcome.
......And yet, Maotelus' wish was never fulfilled. Human is bound to make the same mistakes, and many, including Maotelus himself, experienced such sad truth himself, in the distant future, alongside some of his friend held dear, like Eizen. Also, I wonder if Laphicet had a crush on Eizen's sister all this time?
Possibly as a result of knowing Eizen succumbing to malevolence...... especially when Eizen, known to avoid any and everyone, turns into a dragon......
@@alexchow2728 Eizen doesn't avoid people, he said that he hangs around them because they inspire him to live with the best they have. Why else would he continue to sail with the Aifreid pirates before and after they could see him?
2:41 Artorius' sword has a pokeball on the end of the handle, and he's trying to get rid of all emotions like Cyrus. Pokemon Diamond and Pearl remakes confirmed
Tales of Diamonds and Pearls confirmed. In a world where demons/hellions now called "Pokemon" run rampant. One man to lead humanity to salvation, the "Shepard", seeks to catch em' all and end humanity's suffering.
Yuuya Nukisawa same man ... loved everyone in the game (for once......) I say tales of berseria is better than symphonia idk ... i love velvet and lauphicet, eleanor fuck the whole crew was developed
Anyone realize that Velvet managed to cut off Artorius' armatus with Innominat by biting him in the neck and ripping Innominat out when Sorey had to use Siegfried and sacrifice his friends to cut off Heldalf's armatus with Maotelus? I guess being a Lord of Calamity gives you benefits.
Well, to be fair, Phi (aka Maotelus) was in his hellionized dragon form in Zestiria. And the only way to purify a Seraph/Malak from their hellionized dragon form is by using Siegfried. There's a side quest in this game explaining the usage of Siegfried, which mentioned the experiment of using Siegfried to purify a Malak from their dragon form. Innominat on the other hand, was still in his Malak form so he can be separated from Arthur by just biting his neck.
You know, I gotta say, that's a pretty satisfying ending for a game. Everyone pretty much had their goals met (more or less) and while it's not really all that happy, or perfect of an ending, and they may have fucked things up royally for many future generations to come, all hope is still not lost. Helps put a lot of things into a different perspective when compared to Zesty. And the pictures we see during the credits make me happy and sad at the same time. If only. If only. :,)
i'm sad when i see the credits. the worst is that it shows that if velvet didn't become a therion, if laphicet didn't have the 12 year sickness, if celica wasn't sacrificed for inominat, and if arthur didn't go off the deep end due to said sacrifice, velvet would have still encountered everyone she considered and ally and probably would have let them come along on the journey she and laphicet were having, considering we see magilou, eizen, rokuro and eleanor with them.
Well, those credit pictures are supposedly what Velvet is dreaming about, since they're followed by images of her sleeping, so the others are most likely there only because they were important to her. I mean, look at Rokurou and Shigure. Rokurou wanted to kill him from before he became a Daemon so there's no way they'd just be drinking together at a restaurant like it's no big deal. I think that's just Velvet's opinion on sibling relationships bleeding through.
I went from "USE IMPULSE DESIRE PLZ" to "OOH INDIGNATION FINISH? YEEEEEE" so fast. xD And with this, Laphicet becomes the Big Good we gotta save from Heldalf 1000 years later, Rokurou's Rangetsu style transcends generations until it eventually becomes a fighting style Rose adopts in the Scattered Bones, Magilou settles in her role as a Storyteller of Time, Velvet is in a state I hope Zestiria the X will acknowledge if it ever makes it that far but in the very least, someone in her family becomes Lailah later... and Eizen eventually becomes a dragon. RIP. And given how she is actually the one who named Phi Maotelus, how she was once his vessel, how she's the one going to spread the word about Maotelus being a thing, *and* her green eyes and especially those fingerless gloves... I believe Eleanor is actually an ancestor of Sorey! o.o
Eleanor being Sorey's ancestor is something that I never even considered, but I think you're right. I was wondering how Sorey would indirectly fit into this, but Eleanor may very well be the answer to this. Her personality is much like Sorey's as well.
I think Eleanor can be the ancestor of Alisha because they are the same style and want to protect people !OR the professor of alisha because she has red hair like Eleonor and the same style as well
A huge thank you for this LP! I absolutely enjoyed and finally I know now the full content of the story. It made me to replay this game. It will be defintely my game of 2017 -despite I bought it in 2016.- First final boss phase: Gaius x Muzét II Second phase: Giant version of Duke with superb attack range. It was a great final boss despite the themes were way less memorable than the one in the final dungeon. Also the scene of Arthur's death is just bittersweet satisfaction for everyone. As bittersweet as Velvet's and Laphi's ending.
As well as her brother. Sleeping in each other's arms and dreaming of what their world could've been like if the daemonblight hadn't happened and Laphi never had the twelve year sickness.
I mean, this is probably the most depressing of the Tales Series protag sacrifices, because while Luke and Sorey can (and indeed DO come back), there's no indication Velvet ever will. I mean she PROBABLY will if/when the world finally sorts its shit out and she can go "Okay Innominat you can go now".
I feel that even though Laphi still said that he hated Velvet for the childish things, I feel more that he recreated everything that had happened and what they both were put through. He wanted to protect Velvet, but Arthur constantly in his head made him the way he was. And also with the power he had, he got cocky and drunk with power. He still cared for Velvet deep down inside. He thought if he took her hatred he would have truly saved her.... Damn Arthur. You deserve to rot in hell tbh
this boss fight on hard or higher can go die in a pit of fire. literally the first phase was just innominat spamming insubstantiality and second phase was artorious spamming his break soul (thank god its easy enough to dodge) thx for the playthrough omega :D
try playing on chaos, innominat one-shot everyone with insubstantiality in the beggining i personally used Eleanor 3rd MA and Laphiced 3rd MA since they're easier to do to take 60.000HP in the beginning. ALL THE 4 AT SAME TIME.
You pretty much have to max out everyone's BG before the fight, then immediately go ham on Innominat with a Mystic Arte chain because the little shit deserve it. -_-
3:02 THE ULTIMATE SHADE!!! 4:02 So COO COO, MOTHERFUCKER!! And so, the dove became a canary, singing a song of adventure for her brother in a melancholy cage for all eternity
Nice play man. I take it that you will cover cameo battle in the videos to come. Then we wait for Bandai Namco to release a Tales game that covers what happens after Zesty as in timeline. Shout out to all the amazing VAs especially the female protagonists :3.
Yeah, maybe a sequel to Zestiria, where someone meet Sorey, and intend to end this stupid endless cycle, knowing that the world would succumb to the same fate....
I went back and played zesteria after beating this I have made it all the way to the final boss. The story makes sense now after beating berseria a month back.
Good finale. Also a thing that the Elemental Empyreans decided to step in and stop the world from sliding into complete chaos like everyone predicted was going to happen. Guess that wouldn't have been a very satisfying ending. The thing that makes most Tales games stand out to me plot-wise is utilising huge collections of JRPG cliches before thoughtfully deconstructing, and then reconstructing them. In this case, it felt like it was taking on a conflict more often presented in the Shin Megami Tensei series- logic versus emotion, or order versus chaos. Also, 'revenge before reason'.
Man, first Zesty and now in Berseria.... well technically it's the other way around... they sure love sacrificing themselves. I wonder if Velvet will at least eventually be freed like Sorey though. The "what if" ending was sad too...
Hoping we get a sequel to Zestiria to conclude the story. I mean Lunarre still is alive and so is that one chick. I also hope Velvet gets free so she could meet up with Maotelus/Phi again.
Thanks for this playthrough, ended up getting frustrated by the end game and watched this for the ending, but also enjoyed watching some of your previous LPs
YES that finish on Armatized Artorious! always so satisfying when Indignation kills a boss. and that ending... Why is it always a tear jerker lately? oh well, at least Kamoana is even more adorable now that she's no longer a therion. Not to mention the credits prove that there is a reference to EVERY SINGLE MOTHERSHIP TITLE IN THE SERIES.
God damnit I love this game I love this ending I love the cast I love everything about this game BUT its exactly why it makes me hate Zestiria more, for it being such an all over the place project I think this, at least for me, will be the only time when a Prequel makes me hate the original.
Jesus christ i barely completed the first phase on hard mode (and i probably grinded way too hard, stupid ass instubstantiality being the cause of all the losses i had) and here you are doing this hard ass battle on chaos....bless you and your skill my dude
*Watches Velvet talk out her plan* Me: Wait a minute. This sounds familiar. *Remembers Central Fiction's ending* Me: Okay now you're really pushing Velvet The Bloodedge to be a thing -_-.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE the connection between Berseria to Zestiria. I just wish I knew what happened in between the end of Berseria to Zestiria that caused Maotelus to fall into his slumber in Zesteria (if I'm remembering the game right). I just love the connection between the characters. I wounder what Magilou, Rokurou and Elenor contributed to the world post-game, since we know Eizen became a dragon.
I mean, we technicaly know how (we just don't know the details). Heldalf, as the modern Lord of Calamity, tethered with Maotelus, robbing the world from its blessing. Making the world fall into a huge spike of Malevolence that had to be dealt with by the new Shepherd.
Magilou may have been the Mayvin that was buried in the cave in Zestiria. I mean she kinda fits what would like she's the Storyteller of Time before the Mayvin in Zestiria.
in the end, only small number of people really know what their so-despised lord of calamity (velvet) has done to the world. phi carries her wish (and his own resolve) for humanity second chance. really hoping someone from ToZ finds out the truth of ToB, someone like sorey. i think ToZ's mayvin doesn't seem to know about this, unlike his predecessor.
Dion Chesar Well, the second story teller might well aware the truth while magilou pass down the story teller role to him. But since Magilou is so full of shit most of the time, most her record is likely being discarded by her successor.
This isn't the first time a protagonist sacrificed themselves lol, Ludger from Xillia 2 and Sorey from Zestiria did it as well. ;-; They better not do that with the next game 😭
While not as cool as your Indignation finisher, my killing blow on Artorius was when he was about to use his break soul move, I used Velvet's Consume Claw to power through it and cross countered that shit. It was Anime as hell XD
Anyone who lives a life of no hope doesn't deserve to be called a savior, But look at the bright side. 1.Arthur isn't the only failure.(and not UA-cam Hitler.) and 2.The world will learn to do better because of this. Good sleeping this night,Velvet Crowe.
this end was soo good and sad that it hurts, ohmygad my grumpy heart.... but the ilustrations are like, "what if" version of the things... oh my god, it hurts litteraly TT_TT
Insubstantiality basically oneshot my entire party and had me popping the difficulty all the way down to Hard from Chaos. Fun fight, although spells with Iron Stance were the bane of my existence...
There is a reason why most people call that spell the "rape bubbles" lol Its the main reason why I went ham on Innominat, I don't want his sorry ass casting that shit on me, specialy with his high level of iron stance.
When I fought Innominat at Titania, he killed the whole party with that spell. I was baffled to the point I thought it was a fight you were supposed to lose. "Rape bubbles" indeed.
Okay hold onDid anyone else notice that the four Empyreans sounded like Oscar, Teresa, Shigure, and Melchior? So when their souls were used to wake up the Empyreans were they also reborn as the Empyreans?As a side note this is such a bitter sweet ending knowing what happens in Zestiria. Maybe we'll get a sequel to that, one that at the very least ends this cycle of malevolence once and for all.
I'm way too old for this, couldn't play it but got sooo entranced by the story, the characters and everything!!! Out of all the versions I've watched: Omegaevolution's is the best ♥
Thanks for another stellar playthrough, omega! I really enjoyed it. On an unrelated note - did you get your Verification Badge just recently? I've been following you for years and only just noticed it next to your name, LOL.
So.. the first battle is similar to Gaius and Muzet from Xillia eh? Good thing that Artorius's version of Save Wolf Fury cannot be overly spammed like Yuri from Vesperia. Then the second battle is like Mithos from Symphonia lel. And Holy Moly. The last battle in Chaos Mode sure is insane 0_0. And the end is somewhat similar to Sorey in Zesty about how he's "abandoned in the time."
Thank you very much for making this gameplay video Omega :) does this mean you will be focusing more on Nier Automata gameplay next? Also can I have your thoughts on the game please :)
For Zanza, I don’t have an explanation but I have a link between Artorius and Yggdrasil. Yggdrasil wanted to turn everyone into lifeless beings to prevent discrimination while Artorius wanted to suppress mankind’s emotions to erase malevolence. It’s similar, right?
nice! how did you set your AI? this has been quite frustrating for me on chaos. innominat's casting is hard to cancel, and when he throws insubstantiality only velvet survives due to R2 s
One thing I realized is, Velvet is the most appropriate character in the series to use Demon Fang, and she never does even once.
For shame, for shame.
I agree its too bad she never learns Demon Fang
That's because she has a demon "claw", not a demon fang.
Rokuro, too o_o
Rýgon She does have a sword. Not a traditional one but still a sword.
Velvet: Sheesh Laphi you get angsty and try to suppress all human emotion when you're hungry. Eat a snickers! Better?
Innominat: Better!
Snickers - You're not you, when you'e hungry..And trying to turn mankind into emotionless zombies.
Phi did everything for Velvet, but in the end they couldn't live a normal life together D:
Kurapica07 Maybe they'll cover that in Tales of Zesteria the X.
Malcolm Fitzpatrick I wish they did bud. Wish they did.
@@JamesTheTurnbull They did not :C Also feel like their anime was not as good story as the game sadly.
@@sandro5535 Probably because Zestiria the X rolls back a lot of sacrifices and removes many hard decisions made in the game's story.
@@HarmonicVector I get that they must cut it short. But I think they cut some wrong ends. Also instead of having that yuri ending maybe they should let it have an open ending, play the game to find out.
"Young, Malakhim. What do you wish to give to the world?"
*Raises the apple*
Laphicet: "This apple!"
Empyreans: "Really? Are you sure? Just a piece of a bitten apple?"
Laphicet: "Hell yeah!"
Empyreans: "Dude, seriously?"
Laphicet: "Seriously."
Actually, that Apple has a specific name in the game if I remember right. A Hope Apple I think it was. Meaning he wanted to give them Hope.
*FORTUNE APPLE*****
Death apple.
And then Sorey purified the hellions with apples.
Even if I didnt play it, I was so into the story. It was beautiful. they did a great job with voices, character, designs, the system looked fun and that story... wow.
Those "What could have been" sketches are pretty sad... starting adventures together, being rescued by Magilou and Bienfu, sailing with Eizen, uknowingly bumping into Rokuro, being helped by Eleanor, and coming home to their littlelittle Phi for some family playtime and hunting.
I interpreted those scenes as what Velvet and Laphicet/Innominat were dreaming about as they slept during the endless cycle
Unfortunately Phi, that day won't come for quite some time and even you will fall. But fret not, one boy that burns the same flame as you should pull you, and the world, back into the light.
No Mercy! Wounds that won't heal! Carved into flesh! LETHAL PAIN!
Ready to Die?! Think you can dodge? Just try! PERFECT MAYHEM!
Killing Flash! Behold the artes of my ancestors! RANGETSU STYLE: HERON!

Now! Army of Immortals, FORTY-NINE SOULS! Will you withstand their assault? Or will you fall before them? This is the end!
Spirits release! I stand in the light of the heavens! Cower before the gates of Hell! Come forth, divine lightning! This ends now! INDIGNATION!
Shoutouts to Dyle, the true MVP.
Squallou truly, none of this would of been possible without him :p
Did he and Medissa get together in the epilogue?
Yes, they got married and adopted Kamoana.
May I note that as a human Dyle is Sexy AF!
@Blazing Red Sauce plz
I believe 2 things
1. Along with knowing that he would destroy the world, Velvet decided to seal herself with Innominat (Laphicet), to make up for the pain she caused.
2. The pictures you see during the credits are the dreams that Velvet and Laphicet hoped to achieve. They both wanted to travel the world so it makes sense.
Any other thoughts are welcome.
Hey look. Uncorrupted Maotelus.
Erick Tanamal
Hey look a normal Eizen
Hey look a fully clothed Zaveid
Wait...
Hey look another annoying angel boss
Hey look a Zavied 1000 years younger....
Hey look a Maotelus before losing hope to humanity
......And yet, Maotelus' wish was never fulfilled. Human is bound to make the same mistakes, and many, including Maotelus himself, experienced such sad truth himself, in the distant future, alongside some of his friend held dear, like Eizen.
Also, I wonder if Laphicet had a crush on Eizen's sister all this time?
I guess that explains why he was referred to the Fallen Seraphim because he lost faith in humanity in Zestiria
Possibly as a result of knowing Eizen succumbing to malevolence...... especially when Eizen, known to avoid any and everyone, turns into a dragon......
But with the Silver Flame, the Flames of Purification, Humanity's chances for a better future are far brighter than before.
@@alexchow2728 Eizen doesn't avoid people, he said that he hangs around them because they inspire him to live with the best they have. Why else would he continue to sail with the Aifreid pirates before and after they could see him?
@@alexchow2728 probably due to his Reaper's curse

Yeah, it is not really hard to notice said Pokeball, even it didn't seemed intentional.

*raises his hand*
Yuuya Nukisawa Raised my hand😢
i loved the story and i did cry when i got to the ending, Berseria's story is definitely one of my favorites
Matthew Phu Same
Yuuya Nukisawa same man ... loved everyone in the game (for once......) I say tales of berseria is better than symphonia idk ... i love velvet and lauphicet, eleanor fuck the whole crew was developed
innominat you're not you when you're hungry... Have a Snickers.
Anyone realize that Velvet managed to cut off Artorius' armatus with Innominat by biting him in the neck and ripping Innominat out when Sorey had to use Siegfried and sacrifice his friends to cut off Heldalf's armatus with Maotelus? I guess being a Lord of Calamity gives you benefits.
I mean, when you can literally just EAT the bonds, you don't NEED a fancy do-whatever gun.
Well, to be fair, Phi (aka Maotelus) was in his hellionized dragon form in Zestiria. And the only way to purify a Seraph/Malak from their hellionized dragon form is by using Siegfried.

A huge thank you for this LP!
I absolutely enjoyed and finally I know now the full content of the story. It made me to replay this game.
It will be defintely my game of 2017 -despite I bought it in 2016.-
First final boss phase: Gaius x Muzét II
Second phase: Giant version of Duke with superb attack range.
It was a great final boss despite the themes were way less memorable than the one in the final dungeon.
Also the scene of Arthur's death is just bittersweet satisfaction for everyone.
As bittersweet as Velvet's and Laphi's ending.
R.I.P Velvet, rest easy beautiful
Those ending portraits were incredible (The Art Student in me) Thanks for the Playthrough....kinda wanna rewatch Zestiria again
I feel like the main character sacrificing themselves in the end is becoming a trend now.
In anti-hero stories, the protagonist rarely survives.
Well Velvet's still alive. She just taking a well deserved rest.
As well as her brother. Sleeping in each other's arms and dreaming of what their world could've been like if the daemonblight hadn't happened and Laphi never had the twelve year sickness.
It wouldn't have solved the problem about the daemons.
I mean, this is probably the most depressing of the Tales Series protag sacrifices, because while Luke and Sorey can (and indeed DO come back), there's no indication Velvet ever will. I mean she PROBABLY will if/when the world finally sorts its shit out and she can go "Okay Innominat you can go now".
I feel that even though Laphi still said that he hated Velvet for the childish things, I feel more that he recreated everything that had happened and what they both were put through.
He wanted to protect Velvet, but Arthur constantly in his head made him the way he was. And also with the power he had, he got cocky and drunk with power. He still cared for Velvet deep down inside. He thought if he took her hatred he would have truly saved her....
Damn Arthur. You deserve to rot in hell tbh
I just finish this game today. Best story since Abyss, and the darkest one yet. I love it. I wish they explained more about Magilou tho
Oh my goodness, purified Kamoana looks even cuter!
Farewell.
Velvet the Bloodedge
Time to watch Zesteria :P even sealed Velvet's hair is beautiful
Strigon Wolf Other one that will do after this
Rest in peace artorius. May you and si....i mean velvet find happiness in the next life my dear abyss wal....i mean shepherd.
this boss fight on hard or higher can go die in a pit of fire. literally the first phase was just innominat spamming insubstantiality and second phase was artorious spamming his break soul (thank god its easy enough to dodge) thx for the playthrough omega :D

And so, the dove became a canary, singing a song of adventure for her brother in a melancholy cage for all eternity
Even at the end, Velvet and Phi just can't stop being cute.
At least we know they finally admitted they cared for one another, which is kinda sad that they won't see each other again D:
I feel so sad for my ship now...
It's Blazblue Central Fiction all over again,
except no memory erasing.
will jace You think so too. The entire story is basically Ragna vs Jin, just on a smaller, admittedly easier to comprehend scale.
Nice play man. I take it that you will cover cameo battle in the videos to come. Then we wait for Bandai Namco to release a Tales game that covers what happens after Zesty as in timeline. Shout out to all the amazing VAs especially the female protagonists :3.
Makes a great theater.
great story
I don't see velvet having hope living a normal life
Maybe in a sequel? Say... a thousand years after zesty? (Let's hope after zesty seraph Sorey gets eaten by a dragon before then...)
I feel so sad for Phi to have deal with Sorey for a thousand years...
Yeah, maybe a sequel to Zestiria, where someone meet Sorey, and intend to end this stupid endless cycle, knowing that the world would succumb to the same fate....
Kurapica07 + Nah, probably just a few centuries... still... Sorey needs to become dragon food after he wakes up
Why all the hate for Sorey.
does the embrace of dark-haired Velvet and white-haired Laphicet reminds of Yang-Yin to anyone else?
dyak0 It does to me
Yep yep
3:12 Don't try to respond to that, Laphicet, no one other than you will laugh at that and you know it.
We all knew he is slightly phi... phi..... *cough* bi.
I went back and played zesteria after beating this I have made it all the way to the final boss. The story makes sense now after beating berseria a month back.

Thanks for this playthrough, ended up getting frustrated by the end game and watched this for the ending, but also enjoyed watching some of your previous LPs
STORMQUELL AND STORMHOWL NITORYUU NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!
Eizen: --Face your end!! *sends Innominat into the sky*
Inno: Too Slow!
I died laughing... XD
YES that finish on Armatized Artorious! always so satisfying when Indignation kills a boss. and that ending... Why is it always a tear jerker lately? oh well, at least Kamoana is even more adorable now that she's no longer a therion. Not to mention the credits prove that there is a reference to EVERY SINGLE MOTHERSHIP TITLE IN THE SERIES.
And the Escorts, too
God
damnit
I love this game
I love this ending
I love the cast
I love everything about this game
BUT
its exactly why it makes me hate Zestiria more, for it being such an all over the place project
I think this, at least for me, will be the only time when a Prequel makes me hate the original.
Berseria needs an anime too!
Kurapica07 Watch Tales of Zesteria the X.
Xellos Steelfury for me it make zestiria better
Jesus christ i barely completed the first phase on hard mode (and i probably grinded way too hard, stupid ass instubstantiality being the cause of all the losses i had) and here you are doing this hard ass battle on chaos....bless you and your skill my dude
picture from the credit made me cry, that's the life that velet and her brother cant never have
12:25 I thought this was a battle against Artorius not Yggdrasil
Hey! We’re only allowed to make P3 references with Zaveid shooting himself in the head!
awesome job completing the story, and wow at that pre-battle cutscene where everyone actually fights O=
Another epic final boss fight for the tales series,
and a finisher fitting for this one-armed badass! Thanks,Omega!
Remember that time Maotelus and Innominant faced off for control of being the fifth empryean.
I will forever find it interesting and amusing to read people's differing reactions based on which they played/saw first: zesty or Berseria 😁
*Watches Velvet talk out her plan*
Me: Wait a minute. This sounds familiar.
*Remembers Central Fiction's ending*
Me: Okay now you're really pushing Velvet The Bloodedge to be a thing -_-.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE the connection between Berseria to Zestiria. I just wish I knew what happened in between the end of Berseria to Zestiria that caused Maotelus to fall into his slumber in Zesteria (if I'm remembering the game right). I just love the connection between the characters. I wounder what Magilou, Rokurou and Elenor contributed to the world post-game, since we know Eizen became a dragon.
I mean, we technicaly know how (we just don't know the details). Heldalf, as the modern Lord of Calamity, tethered with Maotelus, robbing the world from its blessing. Making the world fall into a huge spike of Malevolence that had to be dealt with by the new Shepherd.
Magilou may have been the Mayvin that was buried in the cave in Zestiria. I mean she kinda fits what would like she's the Storyteller of Time before the Mayvin in Zestiria.
@adamantinum8168 that is her grave, yes.
in the end, only small number of people really know what their so-despised lord of calamity (velvet) has done to the world.
phi carries her wish (and his own resolve) for humanity second chance.
really hoping someone from ToZ finds out the truth of ToB, someone like sorey.
i think ToZ's mayvin doesn't seem to know about this, unlike his predecessor.
Dion Chesar Well, the second story teller might well aware the truth while magilou pass down the story teller role to him. But since Magilou is so full of shit most of the time, most her record is likely being discarded by her successor.
not gonna lie that's a bad ass ending kinda sad velvet had to give up up her owen life in order to make things end the way they did
This isn't the first time a protagonist sacrificed themselves lol, Ludger from Xillia 2 and Sorey from Zestiria did it as well. ;-; They better not do that with the next game 😭
Didn't expect Artorius to go out like Dhaos with the in-game battle.
Brilliant.
Dhaos getting smacked by Indignation is practically a Tales Series Tradition.
While not as cool as your Indignation finisher, my killing blow on Artorius was when he was about to use his break soul move, I used Velvet's Consume Claw to power through it and cross countered that shit.
It was Anime as hell XD
Is it just me,Or is Velvet a total savage in this fight?. Because she Literally BROKE GUARDS SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW!
Anyone who lives a life of no hope doesn't deserve to be called a savior,
But look at the bright side.
1.Arthur isn't the only failure.(and not UA-cam Hitler.)
and 2.The world will learn to do better because of this.
Good sleeping this night,Velvet Crowe.
*insert RWBY Vol 3 Music Divide here*
this end was soo good and sad that it hurts, ohmygad my grumpy heart....
but the ilustrations are like, "what if" version of the things... oh my god, it hurts litteraly TT_TT
Insubstantiality basically oneshot my entire party and had me popping the difficulty all the way down to Hard from Chaos. Fun fight, although spells with Iron Stance were the bane of my existence...
There is a reason why most people call that spell the "rape bubbles" lol
Its the main reason why I went ham on Innominat, I don't want his sorry ass casting that shit on me, specialy with his high level of iron stance.
When I fought Innominat at Titania, he killed the whole party with that spell. I was baffled to the point I thought it was a fight you were supposed to lose. "Rape bubbles" indeed.
Young boy vibe checks the whole planet
And thus another game has been added to my list of personal favorites.
Thanks for the LP, definitely a story worth listening to =)
Don't mind me just passing by looking for Heldalf.
Okay hold onDid anyone else notice that the four Empyreans sounded like Oscar, Teresa, Shigure, and Melchior? So when their souls were used to wake up the Empyreans were they also reborn as the Empyreans?As a side note this is such a bitter sweet ending knowing what happens in Zestiria. Maybe we'll get a sequel to that, one that at the very least ends this cycle of malevolence once and for all.
I enjoyed every part of this series. Thank you omegaevolution 😊
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching! :D
omegaevolution You are awesome. May God continue to bless you😊
omegaevolution Glad that I did watch it on your youtube channel
I'm way too old for this, couldn't play it but got sooo entranced by the story, the characters and everything!!! Out of all the versions I've watched: Omegaevolution's is the best ♥
Oh my god! Dyle is actually good looking!
It's endings likes these that make me think to myself.
34:51 Eizen and Aifread!
The feels are too powerful!
It a good thing how berseria explain zestiria story so it can be more understandable
35:45 is that Shigure and Rokurou in the backround??? lol
i hate the fact that i beat the game, but love the fact that it was a good one.
Mithos is that you O.O
To me this game is also about the dangers of revenge, If left unchecked it will consume you.
That was sad,but a great run of the game. nice work on beating the game,Omega-Evolution.
INDIGNAYSHUN.
Great playthrough!
Velvet could pass as a DMC character and I would play the game just to see her in the world.
innomi-not my fucking problem
Ranga The Bloodedge:Good for her...
Artorius looks so much coller than Sorey... Why does he have such an overpowered armatus? I bet Sorey'd look even cooler in it
Guess the crew can't see eizen
Man we either need a Xilla 3 or another Tales game in this world
27:38 XD
Damn Omega, you went all out on him.
for just one second there, I thought Hymn of Proof from Tales of Xillia 2 gonna play. damn the feels from these 2 titles man.
So, when the Black Beast... I mean, The Dragon of Light will spit Velvet without her memories?
Damn, omega always makes these fights look so easy. I died 16 times to these two...
I only died once and that sort of gave me a power trip while I was enjoying the post game stuff.
Then I arrived at the Heavenly Steeps...
I tried it on Hard, died twice, then just played on Normal and won. felt a bit easy on normal but still fair overall.
Thanks for another stellar playthrough, omega! I really enjoyed it.
On an unrelated note - did you get your Verification Badge just recently? I've been following you for years and only just noticed it next to your name, LOL.
Eating fortune apple.
So.. the first battle is similar to Gaius and Muzet from Xillia eh? Good thing that Artorius's version of Save Wolf Fury cannot be overly spammed like Yuri from Vesperia. Then the second battle is like Mithos from Symphonia lel. And Holy Moly. The last battle in Chaos Mode sure is insane 0_0. And the end is somewhat similar to Sorey in Zesty about how he's "abandoned in the time."
Thank you very much for making this gameplay video Omega :) does this mean you will be focusing more on Nier Automata gameplay next? Also can I have your thoughts on the game please :)
11:01 uhh
DualDuo Arthorius wasn't corrupted by despair, he was corrupted by pedophilia
To HR:LAWL
31:22 even bigger uhhhh
Laphicet is now Jesus
The second form kinda reminds me of ToS.
Mega Bakufun also reminds me of Zanza's first form in Xenoblade Chronicles
Yeah it make remember Yggdrasil !
For Zanza, I don’t have an explanation but I have a link between Artorius and Yggdrasil.
Yggdrasil wanted to turn everyone into lifeless beings to prevent discrimination while Artorius wanted to suppress mankind’s emotions to erase malevolence. It’s similar, right?
Just finished this game and now its time to play Zestiria tomorrow (well hopefully if my new laptop actually fucking arrives tomorrow)
nice! how did you set your AI? this has been quite frustrating for me on chaos. innominat's casting is hard to cancel, and when he throws insubstantiality only velvet survives due to R2 s
human dyle looks like arin hanson
