Best recap! Thanks for not covering the story beats. A few others (30+min) covered EVERYTHING and ALL CHARACTERS and deargod the human brain cannot process that level of infodump. Yours was easy to parse, thorough enough, and well laid-out. Nice job!
Hey I love your recap. I stopped playing a while ago and was left confused with the story for a while. I did watch few recap videos but they were still confusing. I love how you connected the timelines and it made so much sense without info dumping.
What a pleasant surprise stumbling on a video you worked on rob!! Did a double take when the video started! I finished 2 a couple years ago and only now beat 1 and desperately needed a recap of what I've played. Amazing work as always, I've gone through a couple summary videos by now and this by far is the most clearest and easy to understand, especially given how complex the lore and backstory can get. Keep up the great work, always a good time seeing your work.
this response is to the chart at the start of the video. i saw a theory that Shulk and co alongside Rex and co are still alive just that through Z and origin shenanigans were just not in Aionios, XC 3 probably wasnt that long after 1 and 2 and our original heroes are probably alive after XC 3's conclusion. but nonetheless this was a really nice recap of the first two games
Thank you for this. I just finished Xeno 3. Currently playing Future Redeemed. And although I have played 1 & 2, I still didn’t quite understand. 😅 I’ve watched other vids, this was the best recap I could understand. 👌🏾
Awesome video! Helped refresh my memory as getting xenoblade 3 in about 30 mins. Can't wait to play and this reminded me what a great game series it is
I had no idea both games took place at the same time. I always presume that the first game took place first which is why I thought half of Claus body was gone which was a result of being killed by Shulk already. Thanks for that clear up.
During one of the cutscenes with the architect in xenoblade 2, you can hear shulk’s voice coming out of the architects “black-hole” saying “I wish for a world without gods”
I want to play Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I've seen images and videos, and it looks beautiful. Sadly, I don’t have much time or money to play Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 2, so thank you.
Although I understand why you simplified it to just Torna - Pyra was created because Mythra caused the death of Milton with her actions, a child who had been traveling with her and Addam, not because she destroyed Torna. The mere thought that he was dead after an attack by Malos was what made her activate Pneuma's powers which is what led to Torna's destruction, then seeing him dead is what triggered Pyra.
I only just got 3 since it took a month to ship. I have always been curious about the series since I knew the 1st game the titans were large enough to be continents to other creatures but knew nothing of 2. I'm now wracking my brain thinking how 3 could be related to this since 1 and 2 were related by a split so with what I know so far in 3 I'm curious why life clocks are so important.
This story is so complex that I literally have to watch this multiple times to fully grasp it 🤦🏻♂️ I want to make sure I understand everything before playing 3
Thank you for the recap. I played 1 and 2 and loved them. Of course I bought 3 directly when it came out and played through it. My problem is that I didn't like it. Maybe your story recap can help me think better about Xenoblade 3. Time to watch a Xeno 3 story video. Maybe I didn't get it. I don't know... 3 was so flat and boring compared to 1 and 2.

Thank you!!
Hey! Which were the others that covered everything that youd recommend? Thanks!
How does this video not have more views? Absolutely great job, such a perfect, consice recap to prep me for XC3, thank yall for all the hard work!
The story is way cooler than I thought/remember, even more pumped to play Xenoblade 3
I picked the game up today, never played a xenoblade game in my life, great game so far
Bruh
Play the otherges too man
@@ikkon2909 I have since played 2
Just picked up XC3, and this recap was exactly what I needed. Thanks!

this is ridiculously hard to grasp, i'd have to watch seven more times to get it.

Fantastic summary. Takes skill to present such a complex story in such a short time, and you did it masterfully!
Awesome video! Helped refresh my memory as getting xenoblade 3 in about 30 mins. Can't wait to play and this reminded me what a great game series it is
Thanks for the recap, Im about to play xenoblade 3 and havent played the others so this has given me a decent idea on everything
Why just play 3?
@@ikkon2909 apparently it's the best so why not. And don't worry I watched some recaps so I understand the whole lore
great recap, just what i was looking for before i started the game. all other recaps were 30+ minutes lmao, this covered only the real meat

@@adelin081it's "Today, we use our power to fell a God, and then, seize our destiny" but I can understand the mix up
Agreed with @TboneMalone - most digestable summary yet. Thanks for the effort.

Awsome recap☺️🙌🏼
This is the best recap video I’ve seen on this
10/10 explanation
Just wanted to point out a few things: Egil isn’t Mayneth’s brother, he’s Vanea’s ; and a driver can have more than one blade!

Excellent recap! I'm getting Xenoblade 3 tomorrow so this was nice to watch 😁.
Good recap but you forgot about Future Connected.
That was great, hope you do one about XB3
Great video
This story is so complex that I literally have to watch this multiple times to fully grasp it 🤦🏻♂️ I want to make sure I understand everything before playing 3
I mean yeah, you're suposed to take this in slowly throughout the course of 2 60 hour long JRPGs...
good video!
why did the video do so poorly? as of right now theres 4 comments and 400 views. what happend?
I completed the first Xenoblade and don’t remember anything about what you mentioned. Africa, the conduit? Lol
Thank you for the recap. I played 1 and 2 and loved them. Of course I bought 3 directly when it came out and played through it. My problem is that I didn't like it.
