This game fxcked me up. NGL. It opened my brain tunnels to something more than just being human. The political/religious/psychological/commercial ideas, with the martial arts backing... fxcking beautiful. Along with the ost, anime shorts, and amazing cgi for its time. Nothing new beats this story-telling. It was a phantasm for its time. I still remember climbing the tower of shevat, and fighting Ramsus near the top, thinking this game couldnt get ANY cooler. And yet, it surpassed all of my expectations. Even at the end. What a beautiful and horrifying game. ❤
She's the GOAT, even after the years her voice is still as beautiful as ever Future Awaits starting to play as i finish Future Redeemed will remain as one of my peak moments in gaming Everything that needed to be good was perfect and she's even a fellow Christian, God Bless Joanne and may she remain giving us this gems of songs that became part of our lives
The Xeno franchise has such a great vocal soundtrack identity. It leaves a mark on you which how much weight it conveys with the lyrics and instrumentation
I can't believe I didn't know about this! This is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! 🎵💖 Omg The Memories!🥰 thank everyone who put this video together! 🙏 this I a Love Letter to al Xeno-Fans Around the world! 🌎
@@XenoLuxqaer I need a moment to watch the other MVs fully, but I adore what I've seen. The editing choices made with Pain in particular are very impressive. Are you thinking of the footage in the Stars of Tears MV in the game's data? That has an incredibly geeky explanation behind it that I won't go into here. EDIT: Game them all a watch. They're all phenomenally good.
iam a fan of xeno series since 2005 when I met one guy and he showed me a cd Xenogears. i just want to know how Mitsuda got to know Joanne? how come he managed to find and collab with Jo. if anyone knows some articles throughout net pls report

Haha. It was mainly made by me, but I am glad you enjoyed the video! 😁
@@XenoLuxqaer Outstanding Work my Friend! 👏👏👏👍
HUUH! HAAH! BOOOOTY-HOPP!!!
Awesome video, thank you so much for putting it together and for letting me contribute!
The Stars of Tears MV is good enough to pass for what the supposed removed opening credits would've looked like.
Yeah, I don't like the original opening credits. It is so unfinished looking. Did you like the video though?

@@XenoLuxqaer thx for an effort
Fantastic video, but I'm curious why you include ingame audio in some spots.
Sorry it took me a while to answer your question. I feel like it adds to the atmosphere of the video and the visuals itself to include them.
@@XenoLuxqaer Agreed! Especially during Pain. So good!
