Everything Albedo has done in the story was always to help Rubedo develop. Not even once did he stray from that, he even intended on sacrificing himself to save him in 3 even though Nigredo stole the spotlight
I think his back story is alot more interesting compared to other villians in any game. He wasn't just your everyday evil guy who wants to take over the world. If it was up to me... I think they should make a game abou Albedo only... with the other U.R.T.V''s of course.... :)
For as insane as Albedo was his motivation was ultimately a very human one. He loved his brothers and as a being who was nearly eternal, every second with them, no matter the context was infinitely precious to him. So he did everything in his power to spend time with them. Even if it meant terrorizing them, forcing them to fight him. And if they somehow manage to take his life. Fantastic. They spared him an eternity without them.
If you haven't played the games you probably shouldn't be watching this. But anyways: They're artificially created humans. They were made using cells from a special entity (Or some part of him I forget exactly) which gave them both different powers. One the ability to slow/stop growth, and the other the ability to accelerate it. (There's a scene where Albedo cuts off his own hand and uses his accelerated growth to easily regrow a new one)
"Heeeeeeellooooooooo!! You've got it all wroooong!!!".....love Albedo. Favorite villan since Sephiroth. Going to start Xenosaga 3 today, can't wait to see how this great series ends!
Yeah, it's hard to get emotional for a villain but the backstory story combined with his brilliant voice acting did it this time It was hard not to be sad when he died.
Yeah, it's hard not to be blown away by his amazing and deep backstory and how it effects his personality and attitude. Anyone who doesn't love Albedo is nuts (no offence to anyone who doesn't like him). Merry Christmas or have an amazing day no matter what religion you are and no matter what holoiday you celebrate!
He's voiced by Crispin Freeman who's done alot fo roles in games and anime Do name a few things he's been in Xenosaga Episode II and III Blood+ Boogiepop Phantom Soul Calibur 3 Tales of Symphonia At this very moment i can't think of any more but there are ALOT more.
crispin freeman is also my fave VA. love the sultry voice he does on albedo and albel of SOTET. I also love his Nigredo voice... Love it. thanx kfor the info. I still love Albedo for his crazy personality, too though
Err-Why don't you just play the game and pay attention? URTV's are arctificially created living beings with special powers. Albedo and Rubedo were created as twins and both have special powers, aswell as Nigredo. When they were split apart, Albedo took the ability to stimulate growth (Like regenrating body parts in an instant by speeding up his growth rate) Rubedo took the ability to halt growth (That's why he's short) Haven't played it in quite a while so might be slightly off.
Hahah! I just found out that Crispin Freeman also does Nigredo's voice! He sounds like Nigredoo n the part where he said, " I...I can't stand you or Nigredo..." and like Balmung of.hack too...
That's kinda impossible. In the game they explained that he was overly attatched to Rubedo and he thought she was taking Rubedo away from him. That's why he behaved like that. He'd never to be type to actually fall in love with somone anyways. And i'm not sure how well an RPG would work because the younger Albedo didn't really do any fighting and didn't have "Party members" that's why i thought only a visual novel would work.
Yeah with a standard RPG, I'm pretty sure they can come up with something. Like you see the necklace that Albedo is wearing in the video? Maybe they can add a love story about that necklace.. like a girl gave him that necklace when albedo was in love with her back when he was young... which could explain why he was jealous 2 see Rubedo and Sakura always together and stuff because the girl that Albedo loved died from an accident. And since he was inmortal... he couldn't follow her. Or something.
Lemme think...for Episode II? get alot of stock, get the enemy down or in the air, and unleash hell on him with as many attacks as possible. remember to have a full boost count too. If you have the Team Attack between chaos and Momo? i'm not sure who does it actually but it sets Auto revive on the party, if you have that USE IT. Can't think of much else....My team on my second playthrough was: chaos, Rubedo and Momo and i found it to be quite easy.
Hey if anyone can help. I just finished the game, and am currently playing the post-game stuff. I'm trying to complete the GS No. 32 (the $10 million one) and since it's too late for me to farm orgulla and the other dude for awakenings, i figure I have to get it from the Patriarch. I'm supposed fight him again, but I'm going through Omega again, and I'm at the last console where I first triggered him, and I examine it, and nothing happens. Am I missing something?
I don't keep up with voice actors names except for my favorite so i have no idea who that is and i haven't played .Hack although i've been considering playing it
Well I don't watch it either, as a rule, but I've seen Yugioh abridged and Dan Green makes Pegasus sound almost exactly like him, so I'm guessing considering his voices sound like the main characters (mostly)... Can't find a good example on youtube of the real Pegasus speaking, I'm just guessing here.
Actually, yeah, that's not bad idea. I'd definitally play that. But i'm not sure how much they'd have to work with if they built like a standard RPG, i'd think it would have to be a visual novel or it just wouldn't work...I could be wrong though.
You should go to his site. It tells you almost everyone that he's done. {Albedo is not on there, so I say almost.} He might have done Balmung, I don't watch/play .Hack, but I recognize the name, so maybe. And Chrispin Freeman is my favoritist VA ever, he was the main reason I watched hellsing, and btw, he sounds just like Albedo when he says COME ON on Hellsing. {^.^ He's so awesome}
@Zeldarulah If you think that's trolling, you know nothing of the subject. Again: Blocked for not leaving well enough alone. If something's over, don't revive it.
@ragnarox16 You obviously don't know what the word "troll" means in any defintion if you think i'm a troll. You're going on videos of well-loved games talking about how the straight characters are gay. You sir, are the troll. Blocked.
not just a villan but he is the character that acts like it and behaves like it, the game does not let you know why he is like that, untill you see his past, and it's so sad that at the end he didn't gave a single F about albedo or negredo, he just wanted to be free from his curse, and this is why i was amazed when the devs, decided to pull chatholic jesus style of his release, it was not ment to offend christians or religious people but to deliver the message of a release with a certain art style, and this is why this scene is pure gold in gaming history and so underrated.
Albedo was so eccentric. Rubedo on the other hand....was lame. His story was just annoying and I just circle spammed whenever his dialogue came up. Just an annoying whiny kid.
Anyone who wasn't crying at this scene HAS NO SOUL. I wept unashamed, and I still tear up every time I see it.
Worry not- you are among friends.
Everything Albedo has done in the story was always to help Rubedo develop.
Not even once did he stray from that, he even intended on sacrificing himself to save him in 3 even though Nigredo stole the spotlight
Oh god, I cried so hard at this scene. I actually had the chance to meet Crispin Freeman (Albedo's VA) and I told him this scene made me bawl.
I think his back story is alot more interesting compared to other villians in any game. He wasn't just your everyday evil guy who wants to take over the world. If it was up to me... I think they should make a game abou Albedo only... with the other U.R.T.V''s of course.... :)

LOL "They'll name a holiday after me 8D"
If he can get into heaven then I got nothing to worry about.
dannthevan funny 6 years later
Im sure he get in
"Heeeeeeellooooooooo!! You've got it all wroooong!!!".....love Albedo. Favorite villan since Sephiroth. Going to start Xenosaga 3 today, can't wait to see how this great series ends!
This scene made me want to cry the first time i saw it...Albedo was the only video game enemy that i cared that much about
I love the one holding onto his LEGS. xD
you forgot sephiroth-Super nova throws every planet at you along with the sun
Yeah, it's hard to get emotional for a villain but the backstory story combined with his brilliant voice acting did it this time
It was hard not to be sad when he died.
Poor Albedo! He joined himself with UDO just so Jr. could kill him and so he wouldn't have to live alone without him!
Yeah, it's hard not to be blown away by his amazing and deep backstory and how it effects his personality and attitude.
Anyone who doesn't love Albedo is nuts (no offence to anyone who doesn't like him).
Merry Christmas or have an amazing day no matter what religion you are and no matter what holoiday you celebrate!
There is goes the absurdly best ficctional character ever written.
Yeah, it`s a really touching scene, i love it.
He's voiced by Crispin Freeman who's done alot fo roles in games and anime
Do name a few things he's been in
Xenosaga Episode II and III
Blood+
Boogiepop Phantom
Soul Calibur 3
Tales of Symphonia
At this very moment i can't think of any more but there are ALOT more.
He is Winston in overwatch.
I loved him as Kyon in the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. He also played as Hideki Motosua in Chobits. Freeman always nails the roles he plays.
God damnit Crispin! Another character you have turned into a real breathing creature!
I just love this insane, awesome man. I had a crush on him since I was 12.💓💓💓💓💓💓
Cheshire Cat dude me too! Lmaoo such a great series. So sad its over.
SAME D;
crispin freeman is also my fave VA. love the sultry voice he does on albedo and albel of SOTET. I also love his Nigredo voice... Love it. thanx kfor the info. I still love Albedo for his crazy personality, too though
I do like his work in Xenosaga, i might have to check out some more of his work, thanks.
Err-Why don't you just play the game and pay attention?
URTV's are arctificially created living beings with special powers.
Albedo and Rubedo were created as twins and both have special powers, aswell as Nigredo.

He refers to the man who created him as his "dad" but he has no real parents.
That's kinda impossible. In the game they explained that he was overly attatched to Rubedo and he thought she was taking Rubedo away from him. That's why he behaved like that.
He'd never to be type to actually fall in love with somone anyways.

agreed.
Albedo is the best Villian i have ever seen.
Xenosaga series FTW
I think most people are already aware of this lol.
Haven't watched Hellsing myself, just heard he was in it.
Alucard from Hellsing, don't forget that one.
he's scary
*gives you all shushpaps*
Yeah with a standard RPG, I'm pretty sure they can come up with something. Like you see the necklace that Albedo is wearing in the video? Maybe they can add a love story about that necklace.. like a girl gave him that necklace when albedo was in love with her back when he was young... which could explain why he was jealous 2 see Rubedo and Sakura always together and stuff because the girl that Albedo loved died from an accident.

LOL i'm not sure but it was an intrestion line that's for sure.
Haha, he's a sick little boy sometimes...
y did he talk about adding a holiday after him was that just some comedy they put in there XD
Sephiroth: Downward stab
Albedo: Regenerate
Albedo wins.
Lemme think...for Episode II? get alot of stock, get the enemy down or in the air, and unleash hell on him with as many attacks as possible. remember to have a full boost count too.
If you have the Team Attack between chaos and Momo? i'm not sure who does it actually but it sets Auto revive on the party, if you have that USE IT.

@Demongarra625
he can kick Kefka's ass also
Mmm What didn't you understand? It all made sense to me except for the random angels flying him away
Yeah Albel is awesome. Though, he says maggot more times than MJ says 'Beat it'.
Hey if anyone can help. I just finished the game, and am currently playing the post-game stuff.

is soooo hotttttttt
I don't keep up with voice actors names except for my favorite so i have no idea who that is and i haven't played .Hack although i've been considering playing it
i bow down to ure awesomeness of meeting him Caruiru. ^_^ he will always be the greatest sexy fantasy guy for us girls forever.
Carried off by lolis. What a way to go. :'D
+KaoshimaCheshire Carried off by Kirschwassers, his personal heaven. ;)
Lolis named after BOOZE if anything. Seriously look up what Kirschwasser is.
@ragnarox16 Maybe because not everyone's a pervert who thinks everything is sexual.
Well I don't watch it either, as a rule, but I've seen Yugioh abridged and Dan Green makes Pegasus sound almost exactly like him, so I'm guessing considering his voices sound like the main characters (mostly)...

@pinkpastelhearts and many guys alike.
Actually, yeah, that's not bad idea.
I'd definitally play that.
But i'm not sure how much they'd have to work with if they built like a standard RPG, i'd think it would have to be a visual novel or it just wouldn't work...I could be wrong though.
SPACE JESUS TO THE RESCUE

{^.^ He's so awesome}
Haha! I wouldn't know, i don't watch those little kid animes >.> i couldn't really see Crispin Freeman in a kids show though.
lol albedo's always surrounded by girls
It's probably somewhere, but if you remind me which it is i could upload it for you.
Ok I've never played any of this how the hell is rubedo young and albedo a grown ass man and the other one an adult. Please explain to me.
JESUS!!!! XDDD
What about Pegasus from Yugioh?
@Zeldarulah If you think that's trolling, you know nothing of the subject. Again: Blocked for not leaving well enough alone. If something's over, don't revive it.

Haha, there aren't many villains hat you really feel sad for when they die are there?
Albedo has got to be the best Villain ever created.
not just a villan but he is the character that acts like it and behaves like it, the game does not let you know why he is like that, untill you see his past, and it's so sad that at the end he didn't gave a single F about albedo or negredo, he just wanted to be free from his curse, and this is why i was amazed when the devs, decided to pull chatholic jesus style of his release, it was not ment to offend christians or religious people but to deliver the message of a release with a certain art style, and this is why this scene is pure gold in gaming history and so underrated.
@ragnarox16 Exactly, so why do you have to be one of those such people who sees to it that they have to be a dick? Just sayin'.
Why're we comparing him to Sephiroth? i mever liked Sephiroth.
Albedo was so eccentric. Rubedo on the other hand....was lame. His story was just annoying and I just circle spammed whenever his dialogue came up. Just an annoying whiny kid.
