Kind of ironic that a scene about AI going rogue and turning against humans is ... enhanced by AI.
AI?
The being that takes control of the ship is the same one we face at the end of the game.
Well considering Deus is a system fueled by a misunderstood Eldritch alien energy source, shit was bound to hit the fan
@@AlexanderPR2 yes. An AI named Deus
@@sonnieandjacobit was likelier the Wave Existence that orchestrated the whole thing in order for it to escape back to its dimension. A problem with slavery.
@@AlexanderPR2 Correct. The AI "Deus" was created to be a Super AI capable of planetary destruction used to end a long Intergalactic War that has been going on for hundreds of years. The main problem before it became fully functional was finding the energy to power it. An artifact, named the "Zohar", was found and apparently is an object that came before the universe was even created and basically takes energy from a higher dimension. Unlimited power. It was attached to the AI, however, the dumbasses in their hubris didn't think through giving an almost autonomous AI with Warlike capabilities the fucking power of god. So, the AI, eventually goes absolutely megolomaniac insane and goes to the logical extreme of its programming to not just end the war, but end all fucking life and becoming a God. That ship in the beginning of the game is a continent sized spacecraft that on the surface, is just a normal ship simulating a city life with civilians. What they dont know, is that the ship is actually on a Top Secret mission to fucking eject the fuck out the Deus AI that took millions to stop, out into the most isolated fucking part of space possible. This is basically the last days of that ship after one boy on the ship snooped around too much and found the fucking Zohar. After touching it, it re-activated Deus and the rest is history.
The game of my life, the best story ever told in a video game. If only takahashi had the funds and time to finish his masterwork...
Hey Fei! ur game is awesome! xdd
Well he’s busy managing the Xenoblade games right now. Probably working on the next Zelda knowing Monolith
Deadlines are annoying then as they are now. Just look at cyberpunk 2077. Companies at it again
Hey man, Xenoblade is turning into another attempt at making Perfect Works, so maybe we'll get there before long.
Chrono Trigger remains my favorite game of all time, but without any doubt... Xenogears is top 3 and probably my favorite story.
And then theres those soundtracks
Spoiler: Mitsuda is the true god here.
Sparked my interest in philosophy and never was I normal again.
same
- from Indonesia -
@@NikiWonoto26 wow my fellow countryman 👍👍
Being into philosophy is in no way not normal.
Even an anime about it would be satisfying.
My first true JRPG.
This is awesome. Thank you for this upscale.
you prolly dont care but if you are bored like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown =)
@Asher William yup, I have been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :)
I still get chills when the "you shall be as gods" appears on the screen
This is the most memorial and compelling opening scene in my gaming life, and remains No.1 on my Remake wishlist, unfortunately with the copyright and all kinds of business issues between the gaming director and Square Enix the chance isn't promising.
This is pretty amazing, thank you forgiving Xenogears a little love.
the AI handles animation surprisingly well.
The AI particularly enjoyed rendering the last scene.
Really hope something comes from this franchise... what an incredible game.
Xenogears, one of the few games that can change your life.
It really did, both in the way you imagine it could and also on a different level: Someone heard me say in 2002 that it was my favourite game, which led to him approaching me, which led to me connecting with his friends, and through that long friendships with wonderful people (as well as a sexual encounter with someone), all starting with that guy hearing me say it was my favourite game.
When I played for the first time, I was in grade school, the topics were there and made an impression on me but they didn't really register, I was only 7 or 8 at the time. I also did not finish the game, only stopping once I got to Shevat.
The second and third playthroughs in highschool and college, I was fully engaged and intrigued. Ethos as a corrupted religion, biblical tales like Babel Tower, panspermia theory (life originating from off planet crashing into earth), human experimentation, soylent green (haha nice one Citan...) an ENTIRE ruined colony of extincted, advanced civilization beneath the earth, multiple personality disorder that engulfed Fei... I'm sure all us Xenogears fans know there's so much more.
To say the least, I am so thankful for Xenogears, it was more than a game if anything it was an experience.
Wow! Parts of this are extremely impressive, especially the characters. However you can tell that the 'AI' that did the upscaling was optimized for large textures and geometric shapes, because while stuff like the hold where Deus broke out is jaw-droppingly awesome it was absolutely TERRIBLE with written words. (Except the opening "Alpha and Omega" that is.) They are actually far less readable then in the original low-res Playstation version. That's a shame because it was the words on the screens that I was really hoping to get clarified. Even my favourite typo, "scrumble purge" on the switch cover was unreadable. Overall DAMN nice tho! Thanks for posting, this is the greatest JRPG of all time in my opinion, and it can never get enough love.
You shall be as gods, repeated over and over. This turn of phrase (quoted from the Bible) was also present in Xenosaga, in the form of a password - Ye shall be as gods.
@@discoceris Thank you, but yes, I got that one as far back as the original PSX release. ;-) I was meaning the small writing on the screens where the bridge bunnies are speaking jargon about 'phase space logic being re-written' and 'ergo areas increasing'. It's rather anal of me I know but I love the small touches in shows and anime scenes that can sometimes teach you more about the story, or just be complete screen filler.
@@exidy-yt Have you heard of a book called Xenogears Perfect Works? A long time ago, someone was running a project which translated the entire book. I'm not sure if that website exists or if they had completed the project. I have a copy of that book somewhere and I wonder if they expanded upon what the operators on the bridge were analyzing.
@@discoceris I have a copy of the Perfect Works, and sadly no it dosen't, although there is a ton of info that cannot be found in game, pretty much all of it is about the game characters and gears and the background of the game with only a brief summary of when Deus took over the Elderidge and set off the story of Xenogears.
really wish Square enix and the Saga couple would make peace and collab on a remake. a man can dream.
I was pretty disappointed when they announced a Chrono Cross remaster - not because I don't like Chrono Cross; in fact the remaster is a great chance for me to re-play it - but because Chrono Trigger and Xenogears were two monumental RPGs they could have chosen to do instead.
Xenogear was way ahead of its' time as a game.
With the audio cleared up, this is actually the first time I noticed Awakening is playing during this. Damn is that a cool book ends detail
You're doing the Lord's work.
Seeing the passengers of the ship, the crew, the captain and the ship itself seems like it had a very massive story that begs to be explored.
I got surprised to find out that the planet the story/Game took place wasn't even Earth.
What a massive and deep world and lore Takahashi, Tanaka and Kota crafted.
This opening cut scene absolutely blew me away when I got this game for christmas in 1998. It still holds up to this day in my opinion.
Turly Epic , This channel need to have more subs.
OVERWELMINGLY AWESOME, sure there are some artifacts but the improvements is just too good.
If this video is 3 months old at this time. There is hope for this game.
I used to have a crush on the girl with short hair advising the captain back in the 90s
Thank you very much, you brought back to me marvelous memories !
I'm so glad I can download this. Thanks.
Imagine if Square actually cared and gave Takahashi's team more money and time.
Xenogears is like a Jon Stewart of the Xeno franchise. As an OG masterpiece before budget cuts and spiritual sequals, one would argue it's the most memorable, meaningful, and mature JRPG of that franchise. I miss Xenogears too.
Here's a challenge for any film maker/story writer/animator out there. Remake and upgrade the entire Xenogears intro movie from the ground up using unreal engine 5 or whatever animation software would work great for this. and I do mean everything, the Eldrich (the big capital ship) the people everything all CGI and new voiceovers. I would love to see this movie intro totally re-done, upgraded and improved like that.
Lol I think the guys at Square had just watched the Iruel episode in Evangelion when they made this.
A profound affect on me from about 8 years old.
This is really impressive...
best intros ever made, this game needs a full remake
My Village is Number One
You know, they never became like gods.
The shipwreck was mythologized by the descendents of Abel as the Fall of Man. The terraformer was mythologized as a god sleeping at the bottom of the ocean.
@@taylordiclemente5163 What was Deus' intent in communicting that way?
@@tryingtobebetter7235 good question. Maybe it was prescient of what was to come. Or, maybe it was not Deus, but the Wave Existence, who sent the message.
If Zohar is symbolic of the forbidden fruit in genesis (and I think it is), then Deus may be taunting the humans with that line. Those words are used in Genesis as those which tempted Adam and Eve to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Just as that fruit brought humanity sin in genesis, Zohar (and Deus, which it gave life to) brought ruin to humanity and controlled it, at least for 10000 years. I think Deus or maybe the Wave Existence may be referecing those lines from Genesis to essentially admonish or mock humanity for believing in its arrogance that it could control Deus and Zohar, just as Adam and Eve believed in their arrogance (as Genesis portrays it) that they could be 'as gods, knowing good and evil.'
Comrade Weeb announcing its intention... to completely remake the human race and turn everyone and thing into its components... and thus by doing so make them part of “god” ie “shall become as gods”.
I keep my ps vita around so I can always play it. Also have it on my ps3. Have to hold on to and always revisit the classics. This was a cornerstone of my childhood right here.
God damn the quality is beautiful
Seems like AI upscale needs a little work. I love this game but the lack of it looking properly at previous frames and making a stable decision on pixel placement makes the video look like you are looking at it in water. It's still nice that you took the time to do this though. I appreciate it.
th-cam.com/video/tdF6g9Ud2Is/w-d-xo.html New version
Need to play it after a long run on the 3 Xenoblade, the best jrpgs I ever experienced.
Hope to see this and Xenosaga coming our way one day, remaster or anything which make it possible to play
The opening of the greatest and deepest rpg of all time... perfect as rpg game and perfect as Anime too
1:54 and that 2% of there weapons is what the captain use to self destruct. God damn, imagine having to do this so you could have a chance of saving exists itself.
The most intense intro to a jrpg...played through the game for the 4th time...
Want to start another playthrough.
This scene reminds of the Klaus experiment scene from Xenoblade 2.
Not bad. The AI didn't do good with the textures on the hull of the ship and just made it look like random crumples, and when the camera was moving fast on the outside of the ship it didn't look good. It also seemed to struggle with how exactly to upscale objects that had bright flashes of white light from electricity on them.
This scene..... how all human ends.....😔
This would be great if i was one of the 8 people in the world that had a 8k TV
One of the all time greats of RPG
F#$k that's ultra clear quality. Looks like i just purchase it from the store years ago.
Wow this is seriously impressive!
Wonder how much cash they used to make this opening sequence, they way the character's shadows are rendered are impressive, is there any 2D anime movie with such a quality to the color render out there?
amazing, both the video and the game
YE SHALL BE AS GODS
If they ever have either a remake, or a remaster made, this needs better voice acting on the next go around. This wasn't horrible by any stretch, but it was done in a bland, robotic Star Trek type of way, (that I also love btw) which doesn't fit. The japanese version conveys the fear and desperation in the crew and captain as the ship is being transformed from the inside out.
Dat Spaceship Landline
That was a fucking rpg, i Love it
How did you do that. Did you use shaders or something in emulator?
Thanks for posting
Tem como fazer das FMV's de MegamanX4?
Com certeza!
Won’t square remake this, please...? We deserves a better part two...
Not gonna happen. The creator is no longer with SquareEnix.
@@budakbaongsiah so sad...
@@graviron
He went to greener pasture, though. Xenoblades are very successful.
my computer died when i watched it in 8k
This is amazing looking.
Watching this on 480p LOL.
I would pay $120 for the full-release of a FFVII:R treatment of this game in a one-shot.
FUCKING would do that gladly!
this one needs a remake
e pensar que essa cena acontece 10000 anos antes do enredo do jogo...
Can you do Monster Hunter Freedom Unite intro ? Would really appreciate it !
uuumnn,,, wow. updated ISO anytime in the future??
Thank you!!!!
How come no one has made this game into an anime yet?
my favorite rpg game in ps1
the text comes off as really blurry and illegible at points.. like the caution label when it cuts to the switch.
Ye shall be as Gods
I wonder what ever did happen to kosmos
Please do us all a favor and upload one with Japanese voice acting... please? :)
a good idea!
I'm really looking to make a new version with a model I trained.
pixelized remaster like octopath for this game please! with full content of disc2 and not the text type naration, anybody please...
I still think the Captain was fei´s father....
Wouldn’t that make Elly his sister?
@@thermite45 NOT ACTUALLY SHE IS MADE FROM HIS MOTHER ,, I mean constructed biologicaly to resemble her .. they all except for Abel died in the crash
I seen we don’t have enough altruistic billionaires in the world who would fund making a sequel to a great game like this. 😒
No good , nothing happend😂
Damn the english voices ruin everything
Xenogears.. My favorite RPG of all time.
Same here but the 2nd disc was killed due to Final Fantasy VII so they had to rush it.
Oh boy. This story... I know it's old as hell to say that, but imagine if part two was complete. Just imagine.
I'm grateful for Perfect Works.
If I had the money I would pay millions so they would finish and remaster this art work.
Never played anything this incredible
@@edhernandez4344 unfinished, like the portrait of Sophia
@@taylordiclemente5163 exactly, the story is like the game its self
Imagine à remake in the way of FF7 ^^
Possibly the greatest opening to a game I've experienced, watching this understanding the full context gives me chills every time now.
I had very fond memories of playing Xenogears when I was in high school. It had one of the most interesting and complex plots I've ever seen. I'm almost 40 now and there are still parts of it that I don't totally understand, especially the intro but watching the explanations on TH-cam by other fans who understood it better helped a lot.
@@Elly3981 This military ship in the trailer has come into possession of a biological weapon which they are attempting to activate and analyze. It turns out to be a super AI that begins to take over the ship and translate it to the nearest known planet that suits its development into a massive world devouring, terraformed, weapon. The machine is thwarted by the crew, which it begins to annihilate when they, a necessary component, begin to evacuate the ship. The captain, from his bridge, isolated from the rest of the ship, executes a self-destruct sequence that causes the ship to crash land into the planet the adventure takes place in. The AI, which resembles a gigantic brain, survives, but cannot operate at full capacity without the ships power, so it spawns human doppelgangers that will repair and enable the AI to realize its objective for which it was created.
What we don’t realize until late game is that when the bio-engineered super AI began to initialize it drew so much power from the ships artifact power system that it tore the fabric of reality and actually tapped the energy of God and subsumed the creator. When the ships power failed, that power was trapped inside this machine. Unbeknown to the AI, this trapped entity also created dopplegangers that would eventually work to destroy this machine and liberate it.
Apart from these 4 original new humanoids, many of the ships AI, normal androids used to service the humans and the ship, also survive, but are corrupted and recruited by the 2 AI dopplegangers. They become the masters of this world, immortal rulers over the mortal humans that come to procreate and fill the planet. The machine bides its time as the technology is recovered and recreated over the ages of its sleep by the agents it created.
@@Zematus737 Wow thankyou for this great explanation
@@Elly3981 I was three years old when this came out, just finished playing through it for the first time now when im 25 :D great game! some of the music was repetitive though.
@@Elly3981 Reading the translated Xenogears: Perfect Works will bring a lot of plot points to light.
This is the RPG game that was a big part of my life when it came out!! I will watch it later on my OLEDTV. Should be good, thanks for the upload.
Still the best under-appreciated game ever. Story, music, gameplay...everything...also it was a very hard game...this game brings back so many memories. This is the only game my sister ever enjoyed and she made me play it for 3 days straight. We beat it in 71 hours grabbing almost all the secrets along the way.
"Initializing FakeNet"
Shout outs to the Xenogears Monday Morning Podcast. Also, great video, friend! 👌🏾
holy smokes this looks amazing! lets get this game remade please!!
Subbed once I saw this. My most memorable game. God I love this game.
Still the best jrpg story I've ever come across.
The makes me wish we could get a Xenogears remake
For real
I wish
Proper remaster would be better. Sometimes, remakes are not as good but a remaster could maybe bring up resolution and load times could be improved.
Nice. Have you been able to recompile the iso file with higher resolution cutscenes? Just curious
The best game ever made, thank you for this beautiful restoration
I still don't consider the Xenosaga series to be as great as Xenogears. This game had so much potential. Wish it was completed or had a remake.
The animation is absolutely gorgeous.
3:01 Ever wonder why there are spacemen floating around and directing the shuttle with glowing batons, in what is obviously an automated launch procedure?
2:58 Or why the hallway is shaking like a magnitude 9 earthquake (juxtaposed between two scenes where everything is perfectly still)?
3:11 Tempted to complain about this, but it somewhat makes sense. Flying close to the hull might limit line-of-sight to the turrets until the shuttle had entered a blind spot, at which point they could turn away and escape. However, the hovering design of the turrets suggests they wouldn't be able to pivot to target anything away from the hull.
I don't even want a remake or so. Just please, Square Enix, release this game for modern gaming systems. I don't care if as the same version or a remaster (again, I'm not demanding a remake). This game is too good to be locked away forever. All other Japanese studios have realized that there IS demand for their old-school JRPGs. Final Fantasy is nice and all, but you're sitting on A LOT of IPs, Square Enix. For the love of Deus, DO IT ALREADY.
Thanks for making this, does justice to the amazing masterpiece that is Xenogears!
I remember being blown away when I saw this intro cinematic for the first time.
I had absolutely no clue what was happening, mind you, but it was very impressive. 😂
"You shall be as gods"
What is ironic is the humans created a computerized super weapon, saw how truly dangerous it was, carried it on that ship (The Eldrigde). Which eventually it became self aware, took over the ship and killed practically everyone until the captain decided to self activate the self destruct system.... the very thing man created turned on it......
This is beautiful! Thank you
god the shot of the engine room i find it to be so haunting, just cables contorting in a seemingly random fashion indicating how deus is propagating his will with maybe reality bending capabilities, leaves one to wonders what on earth may just happened to the crew at the engine room.
Sadly they've all but forgotten this game at monolith soft and released so many inferior games xenosaga, and chronicles weren't nearly what this was in term of scope.
I'm in love with this game, I like everything, the music, the gameplay and the story
