  • Hello! Thank you so much for watching my Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna - The Golden Country highlight / condensed playthrough video. This was originally streamed on Twitch and has been edited exclusively just for UA-cam. This is the final part and in this video, we continue our way to the Auresco, the capital. The group then attends a conference with the Tornan King, High Prince Zettar and Quaestor Amalthus. After the audience, Malos arrives and attacks the capital with his Gargoyles. During the battle, we are saved by Azurda and Malos says that he will be waiting for us at the Tornan Titan for the final battle, and of course, this video ends with a very devastating finale which shatters my heart.
    Thank you so much for watching this video and I hope you enjoy it! Appreciate if you could leave a like, comment and subscribe to the channel if you haven't to make your boy here happy! Have a great day, everybody!

    Yes, Zettar is the ancestor of Zeke. In the main game, his father tells him that they'r not descendants of Addam, but of a cadet branch. This means, the descended from a younger brother of the King of Torna, thus Zettar. We see the arrangements made between Stannif and Zettar at the end. So that's where Zettar sold his people to Amalthus and trade in himself being king for the isolation and coldness of Tantal.

      Actually the Japanese is ambiguous and can be interpreted both ways. Given the context that the previous sentence she says means “I don’t want to destroy” I think the official translation makes more sense here.

    The entire sequence between the defeat of Malos and Lora facing Gort is my favorite scene in all the xenoblade games (tied with 1 other scene). Most of xenoblade has a lot of dialogue and narration.
    But that sequence. It hits "show, don't tell" right on the head.
    They don't mention Hugo dying. They just show you Addam crying and the cores on the ground.
    When Lora hands the cores to the inquisitor, he hesitates. He was the one person who was supposed to be ready for Hugo to die. And it still hurt him.
    Mikhail has dead eyes when he turns towards the camera. No one needs to say anything. You can tell Milton died in his arms.
    When Mythra heads towards Milton, Addam starts stepping in front of her, then stops. He wants to be there for her, but he still doesn't know how to accept her. This was his problem that Rex was able to overcome.
    When Mythra reaches for Milton, Mikhail just pulls him closed. This was the breaking point for Mythra. Seeing her go through this, you really understand why she was so full of self-hate in the base game. It's heartbreaking.
    When Addam talks, he is more subdued. The death and destruction he had to endure has clearly taken a toll on him.
    And, of course, Pyra. The game never needs to mention the transformation, only show that it happened. That's because the player already has all that context from the base game.
    Though the dialogue in xenoblade is masterfully crafted, Monolith was able to make a beautiful scene with as few words as possible.
    No spoilers, but that scene is only tied with a scene near the end of chapter 5 in xeno3. A short sequence plays with no words from the characters, and it's beautiful.
    Wow, you actually read this far down? Sorry for rambling on, I just *really* liked those scenes (in case you couldn't tell) :P

  • @MrAuthor3DS
    @MrAuthor3DS 7 місяців тому +3

    - Malos's boss theme here is an acoustic rearrangement of Amalthus's boss theme. It's a nice touch, I'm saying.
    - Mythra was the one who convinced Milton to wait in Auresco - the way she saw it, (even though it was Malos who dealt the killing shot) his death was her fault. With that and the death's of the Titan and Hugo, it's no wonder Mythra generated Pyra and repressed herself.
    - I can scarcely think of anything else in Xenoblade 2 that's as horrifying as Blade Eater Gort! And boy, is he mentally out of it...! Still, worth it to hear the theme of "Lora is pissed off" (a rearrangement of "The Power of Jin", even).
    (Fun fact: Gort's HP is constantly whittling away in the battle, automatically. Stannif did say that Gort might not last long. Oh, and Team Lora can't be KOed in this one battle.)
    - "Things can change. There's always hope." After the tragedies that unfolded in the ending...it's comforting that the final shot in this campaign is Rex, a boy who truly embodies hope. I'd say Lora had a point after all.

  • @deathbyautoyt171
    @deathbyautoyt171 Рік тому +10

    What really caught me during my own playthrough of Torna is when Emperor Hugo died protecting Addam. Addam was seen crying. If I was in his place, the thoughts that would go through my mind is 'Why did you do it? Why did you risk your life to protect me, a powerless driver. Someone who can't save anyone. Someone who cant control his own blade.' Man, even if Addam is much cooler than Rex, he was still powerless to control Mythra, the Aegis. Really quite the contrast with how Addam was depicted in the main game, saying that he is a hero.
    Anyways, we're all just here to see you cry haha! Can't wait to watch your Xenoblade 3 videos

    Also i kinda feel bad for malos too, he does all this stuff because is his programming, and can't know better..until losing almost all of his powers and knowing jin.

    The depressing part about Mythra feeling so guilty is that they NEEDED her full power, Malos was toying with them, the only way to beat him was for her to be able to use her full strength. But she never seemed to get that, so fixated on the destruction.
    Which is why Addam felt he was the one that failed. He couldn't bring out her true strength because *he* was afraid, from the moment he resonated with her.

    It's nice that they talked about the golden eyes again. Malos said it to Rex too in their first fight and than it is never brought up again. I thought it would be an important plot point but maybe Malos was just reminded of Addam. Pyra said herself that Rex and Addam are very alike. there is still the theory that Rex is a descendent of Addam but i am gald they didn't confirmed it. I like it that some stuff is left open for interpretation.

      Malos definitely changed after the last battle in Torna. He was severely weakened in the aftermath of the fight and he seems to become more introspective and self-aware of the nature of his driver’s influence afterwards. In TTGC Malos was a vessel for the hatred Amalthus held for humanity, but in the years between that and the main game he comes to feel for Jin and, I think, and they see themselves in each other. That is their bond. Like Jin said, Malos was still searching for his own identity, independent of his driver’s influence. When Malos gives the impassioned speech about Jin wanting to die, but not being able to, it could be interpreted as Malos feeling that way too. There is still a part of Malos that does not want to be the destructive, evil force that the influence of Amalthus made him. The only way he sees to end his and Jin’s suffering is to wipe out their existence along with the rest of Alrest. An interesting thing to note is that before Malos extracts Pyra’s memories he is not aware of Aion. And in TTGC Aion awakes only briefly and it is for Mythra. Aion is the artifice capable of the destruction of mankind, so if Malos truly was ordained by the architect as the endbringer, like he claimed, then would he not be aware of Aion already?

    • @Nuvendil
      @Nuvendil Рік тому +1

      ​@@thebristolbruiser Well, Pneuma and Logos weren't supposed to *be* blades. So their memories in general seem fuzzy. Probably in part due to their drivers' influence.
      I think Malos also became...humbled in a way. In Torna, he views himself apart from humanity. Above them all. In the base game, by the end, you see he doesn't see himself above humanity at all. Everything he judged humanity for in Torna, he embodies. And realizing this, he views himself as equally guilty, equally worthless.
      But Malos also forms bonds, actual friendships, in his own way. He has something he cares about. And so, he takes on a curious role. He believes that the world isn't worth saving, but he doesn't WANT to be right. He WANTS to be beaten, in a way. Funnily enough, he kinda reminds me of Master Asia from G Gundam, who similarly took on a belief that man wasn't worth saving and fought for that but in the end, he didn't want to be right, he wanted to be beaten.

    I firmly believe that Jin’s final message to Azurda was telling him that if they ever met again, Azurda would have to kill him. Jin was no fool. I’m sure he could well foresee the toll living on would have on him. It is probably why, despite knowing how, at least 1 previous Jin had never become a flesh eater.
    If you watch the cutscene where Gramps saves Rex, you notice that as soon as Gramps and Jin recognized each other, Gramps came around for an attack and Jin gripped his weapon. Gramps fired a few blasts, the first ones creating a distraction for the final blast which was aimed directly at Jin, and which Jin had to deflect with his sword.
    I believe that blast was directly intended to kill Jin, and that it was fully capable of doing so had it not been blocked.

    Monolith Soft is fairly reluctant to kill off major characters permanently in the mainline games and often pulls its punches with the most shocking twists, for some reason. In particular, I've been a little sore for years about how XC2 snuck in a happy ending in the last seconds of the game, partially undermining the otherwise incredible final chapter. So imagine how delighted I was when they didn't hold back with Torna and allowed it to fully commit to the tragic consequences it was building toward!
    The game is also shockingly fleshed out for a DLC expansion as well.
    Torna has given me perhaps unrealistically high expectations for the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 DLC, as such.
