Rex's glow up is directly caused by years of Pyra's cooking and Zeke's training. That is a man who can support three women going through pregnancy at the same time.
@@geraldthegoose1685oh definitely, did you notice he was fighting like Mòrag and he has those, waist cape thingies like Mòrag has, so he definitely spend lot of time with Mòrag and Zeke❤
It's amazing how even though Rex's VA is very different, he still sounds exactly like Rex. I don't hear "older swole guy", I hear "Rex, my dear boy, all grown up now".
Let's not forget this is also an achievement of the character writing! They didn't just write Rex, they evolved him but still preserved his the core of his character
1:23:15 imagine going back in time to when Xenoblade came out and telling everyone that Dunban is dead and 1000 years later a Nopon squatter is upgrading weapons inside his dilapidated house.
55:54: Super wild that so many things are happening to Shulk this very moment. Literally meets with - a guy who's praises were sung literally just moments ago - an old friend reborn - his son Calm Shulk XD
@33:14 those kids almost broke the fourth wall. I wish our queen Yoko Shimomura would compose for Xenoblade again in the future, but at least she got special thanks in the credits. And I definitely enjoyed the affinity scene in Dunban’s house. We also have confirmation that Shulk married Fiora. And Linka was voiced by Meghan Jette Martin. She’s been voicing Naminé since Re:Chain of Memories.
I thought it was a bit unusual that Meaghan Jette Martin was in the game, what with the games bein dubbed in the UK. Then I found out she's been living in London for a few years now. She moved there to live with her husband
@@ultramm9503Yeah she's literally listed as 'Music Special Thanks Yoko Shimomura' I wish she had at least composed one original song. Matbe she can come back for future games
Light spoilers for any who haven't reached Chapter 5 in the base game.. - - - - I was thinking...Glimmer was in Colony Gamma, which was Mio's home colony in the base game. If she hadn't been removed from the cycle (Her statue in the base game confirms this, so not a spoiler), the two sisters could well have been comrades. Though Na'el being descended from Mio (the one who became M) means she became a city founder alongside her great aunt while being similarly aged to the latter. LOL
There are lots of transfers back and forth between colonies. Even Noah's trio wasn't originally from Col.9. Same goes for Mio's trio. Mio & Sena were from Omega and Taion was from Isurd's Colony. Also, the Gamma of Glimmer's time is not the Gamma of Mio's time.
@@UltimateLordMonkey Indeed. All very true. That's why I said they 'could have been.' I didn't mean to imply that the only factor on the 'could have' was if Glimmer were in the cycle.

I'm picturing her saying Reyn's leyns now. "Oh yeah, baby! Now it's Shania time! Hahaha! In your face! When the going gets going, the tough get tough!" ...How do I pay her voice actor to do this?
@@celestia74 Considering Harry McEntire has no filter they should be fine as long as they don't break NDAs. I'll check out any future character she acts because she did such a good job, but I wouldn't mind Shania with a few seconds of happiness either...
I didn’t even catch the fact that Matthew and Na’el’s names were M and N gender swapped!!! You’re amazing! Considering how Matthew and Na’el’s personalities are more like N to Na’el and M to Matthew, it makes it even cooler!!! Damn Xenoblade is a great series!
Fun fact: Linka shares a voice actor with Namine in KH. Hearing 14 actors in XC is par for the course, but it's bananas to see KH and XC crossover a VA for once.
Can it really be or feel like "fanfic" if the creators themselves made it? At that point it just feels like the creators having some fun by crossing over their past creations
Love your videos Sarah! This doesn’t have to be the end, there are still the accession quests and the rest of the side stories in 3 if you haven’t done them yet…
N's child was grandad ghondor, we already know that the family is the vandam family from the statues, its just their last name, nothing mysterious to it.
There's a part of my brain that tells me Shulk and Riku messed with his prosthetic arm ( removing a the shim) to help his advice on the nature of tools ring more true and have a little bonding moment with Nikol
Future Redeemed is such a wild ride! Happy to see your reactions to it! Just finished up postgame cleanup and can finally put it down...but what a bittersweet feeling to know the current saga of games are over.
Melia's long since moved on. It's just some fake fans with their own insecurities who can't stand the thought of her not getting to make out with Shulk.
I find it funny how the chat is going on about Nikol's voice, he's on his 10th term, the equivalent of a 19 year old. He's a young adult. He's just short with serious baby face.
I hope al weaver knows we really loved his voice work as rex. Its a shame he didnt return, but the new rex voice def feels like an evolution to al weaver interpretation
"this is the best fanfiction..." 😂 best way to describe this, I love it! I'm so happy to see you playing this, I just finished it today and it really was like fanfiction come to life 🥹 Take care❤ Rex new VA takes little time to get used to and I wonder how have Al done, does he get so deep voice? but I love him so much nonetheless, he's still same Rex but grown up. "Nothing like wind in you hair!" o7
If you think about it. Mio has more of Pyra's personality, Glimmer has more of Mythra's. So whoever Mythra's kid is, that kid may probably be more like Nia. I guess the apples fell far from the tree and under another XD
Oh dear, I still need to catch up on the XC2 playthrough (And XC3...) (and finish FD...) yeah no way I'll get to watch these as you put them out XD I really hope you enjoy! I know I will enjoy watching them
Hey sarah! Just wanted to say i appreciate your hard work and genuine reactions to the games. Ive watched your compilations 2-3 times each and i gotta say watching the stories again coupled with your reactions made me appreciate these games even more than i already did.
I am supremely enjoying seeing people react to Rex. and now I need to go check how they respond to Colony 9 too From one superfan to another, enjoy this story for all it's worth!
Sarah I can truly relate to you…God bless always Sarah😎I was anxious also to start every xenoblade chronicles game…my first was xc2…and then torna and next definitive edition and finally xc3 with dlc fr…😁so sad though this is the culmination of Xc series😔lookin forward to the next😁
linka mentioned that glimmer looks like ‘them’ which could imply that glimmer is a mixed of a pyra and mythra’s daughter? just my hunch. i mean glimmer physically like pyra, acts like mythra.
56:16 subtitle error! W’s actor doesn’t say “the” here. I like noticing tiny mistakes that don’t affect anything like this Also he says “is this,” not “this is”
1:21:45 "Maybe Melia doesn't need love though. Melia is a strong independent woman" SarahKey, you are a QUEEN for speaking the truth like that. 👑 Whoever started making the "Putting the L in Melia" joke needs to get over themselves. Melia hasn't been in love with Shulk for decades. She's long since moved on with her life AND she's in open support of Shulk and Fiora's relationship. So maybe y'all should stop projecting your own insecurities onto this strong, beautiful character who's above that.
Best Trilogy. I love your reactions, I started to see them from the reaction to the xenoblade 3 trailer and your xenoblade 2 videos and I followed your gameplay on twitch of xenoblade 3, greetings and I love xenoblade.
I JUST did the cutscene where Rex shows up. I had the biggest fanboy reaction I’ve ever had in gaming history, I don’t know why. I think it’s just cause my boy was redeemed…
literally THE best purchaseable fully acted and playable fanfiction i've ever seen. the amount of times i stopped in game to stare at shulk was embarrassing LMAOOO9
Yep, definitely Blake Ritson. Actors provide additional voices for minor characters all the time. Often times they're hard to spot, but other times you can tell
@L yeah, there's also a character in Segiri's hero quest that is voiced by Jack Bardoe (Lanz), but it's a bit more jarring cause Lanz is in the same scene.
I don't know if you've played the games yet Sarah, but if you're looking for more Xenoblade-like experiences, you should really try playing Xenogears and Saga. Or you could wait for at least the Xenosaga games to get ports, as that is seeming more and more likely nowadays.
Rex's glow up is directly caused by years of Pyra's cooking and Zeke's training. That is a man who can support three women going through pregnancy at the same time.
And Morags discipline
Bro he's the queen husband so he's "king".his child are princess so support them not that hard😂

Rex's character was perfectly crafted in this dlc
Shulk, Rex and Matthew blowing up a Moebius to Weight of Life is the type of hype you could only dream of before, still can't believe this DLC.
Blowing a moebius is odd phrasing

well, he's probably not dead, just... spoilers.
@@Justic_
as far as everyone else is concerned, he’s dead
1:14:42 Biologically he’s Shulk and Fiora, but spiritually he’s Valdi.
I do wonder if Nikol and Valdi ever met each other in a past cycle and how they would have interacted
Yeah his backpack really reminds me of Valdi
He’s a shyer, more socially awkward Valdi
YES. Finally someone said it! Another cinnamon roll mechanic
Spiritually, Valdi is early-game Shulk, so we're back at the beginning
55:54: Super wild that so many things are happening to Shulk this very moment. Literally meets with

That does make me curious about how Ferronis recycling works. We see that Kevesi one at least three separate times throughout the game & FR
Assuming Panacea is Sharla’s kid, that means there’s a pretty good chance Shania is descended from Reyn

Your slow realization of the Colony 9 music hitting you is amazing
Fun fact: Linka shares a voice actor with Namine in KH. Hearing 14 actors in XC is par for the course, but it's bananas to see KH and XC crossover a VA for once.
I finished it the other day and I need to keep drinking Rum to take it all in, 1st rule of the Salvagers Code!
When I realized the battle music had changed around Tephra Hill, the nostalgia hit me pretty hard.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks this feels like a fanfic in all the right ways
Can it really be or feel like "fanfic" if the creators themselves made it? At that point it just feels like the creators having some fun by crossing over their past creations
@@thedoorman6940 it has to do with how much fan service it contains. This DLC has soooo much fan service in it

With the glance they shared, that’s more than likely what happened. Neither of them would’ve forgotten that part otherwise.
Matthew is such a great character.
Blushy-Crushy for Shulk

"Melia is a strong independent woman" I agree, Melia Antiqua is the Queen of my heart.
Melia's long since moved on. It's just some fake fans with their own insecurities who can't stand the thought of her not getting to make out with Shulk.
I was smiling the whole time playing this. Especially when they returned to colony 9 and shulk was reminiscing.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Matthew is my favourite Xenoblade protagonist. I can't describe how much I love him
Matthew is pure of heart and dumb of ass and I love him
Fergus O'Donnell as Rex

43:03 lol, I just remembered you saying you were bad at recognizing voices as this happened. That shriek as Shulk walked into frame was priceless.
I've been waiting to watch your playthrough. This one's going to be crazy!

Moebius battle theme playing when it pans to the aegis swords goes so hard
YEAH my reaction well Shulk and Rex appeared was pretty similar 😂
SO HYPE!!!
can someone confirm that she did the gem furnace sidequest?
Just did that quest and man it's great
The Xenoblade 2 expansion pack with other Xenotagonists was fan fiction. This is a culmination and prelude to a finale.

43:03 the fact that you didn’t recognize Adam Howden immediately, so your reaction was delayed…lol
The Rex entrance is the Xeno equivalent of Thor arriving in Wakanda - it brings the house down every time you see it.
I love how Rex and Shulk are friends in this! and thier father to father talk
"That's how you were able to kill a möbius."
