As the Switch life cycle slowly comes to an end, this game has still been my most favourite. The world design, story and characters is just so well thought out.
If Skyward Sword has taught me anything, when you see a girl that shares many design similarities to a sword, she is probably a sword. That red-headed girl looks a lot like that Monado-esque weapon. Definitely a connection.
@@DarknessIsThePath Wat? The Xenoblase 3 reveal was hype and there was so much going on, and so much crazy speculation. This reveal is tiny and humble by comparison without that much to say
1.4 million now. Fun fact, this now has the most views of any Xenoblade franchise trailer, even beating out the E3 2013 and announcement trailers for Xenoblade Chronicles X.
Super Bo its cherish that gamers over 30 who have family kids jobs etc actually really waits on this kind of deep existensial games. I mean i read Nietzsche in my college but damn his thoughts are so powerful and full of meaning that actually video games (as next art) wil great correspond with philosophy. I hope in next years (and maybe generation of next consoles) nintendo will bring more and more this kind of games cause ... damn ... this is it all about. Nintendo in my opinion must defeat Sony with his playstation to bring to life jRPG, action games that we gamers know it from NES and SNES. World of video games needs better and stronger Nintendo. It will bring games to their origins!
Remember when Square didn't let Takahashi create Xenogears 2, which is why he made Monolithsoft in the first place? Nintendo does what Square Enix don't.
Leaf Nah FE will still be running strong, simply because of it being a strategy RPG Xenoblade, though, feels like a proper counterpart to FF, both being a fantasy action RPG series 'n all that jazz.
Wouldn't it be hilarious if there ended up being 9 numbered Xenoblade games that, via absurd amounts of retconning, ended up making a story line that lead up to the events of X?
They're not like Final Fantasy, they're using Arabic numerals not Roman numerals to number their games. So they won't reach a problem when they reach 30.
Even 7 years later this trailer was so exciting. The gorgeous scenery, the amazing amazing music, the really cool lines in japanese, all building up to the reveal that the story or rather spirit of Xenoblade Chronicles was going to continue on in the form of a sequel. Still probably my favorite reveal trailer out of any of the Xenoblade games.
DigiBradChannel God I hope that's the case. Of the two, X definitely needs a sequel more after that cliffhanger ending. Still, I'm not complaining personally.
KnokaBrokaTowah To be fair Wind Waker was a style change, not a Downgrade It also didn't change links outfit to short shorts with a half thigh gap and give him the worlds bulkiest and small backpack
Jokes aside il buy the switch alone for this game. Xenoblade on the Wii was hands down one of the greatest story driven games i ever played and knowing theres a sequel to that masterpiece sends shivers through my body. "Swing the blade to your hearts content"
Deus Knight The Wii U didn't sell well but the games on it did get considerable attention proportionate to those sales. Mario Kart 8 for example is still one of the best selling exclusives of the gen, second only to Uncharted 4. And the Breath of the Wild trailer for Wii U has over 11 million views. XCX had big trailers in early 2013, E3 2013, and E3 2014. To beat all those trailers - which have had years to accumulate views, in one month is impressive. Especially when you consider this is a smaller trailer compared to the three just listed.
The franchise is gradually rising in popularity. Very soon it's popularity will match the franchise quality and when that happens I cannot see any other Japonese company being able to compete. Long live for Monolith!!!
Nuvendil I honestly get the impression that the average Xenoblade Chronicles fan was put off by how X deviated so much from the game before it. x is a masterpiece but I believe it should have had a totally different name. it starting with "Xenoblade Chronicles" made many expect it would be a sequel of sorts. and it simply wasnt
It is way up on the list and much better than most Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Phantasy Star games, but there are so many great JRPGs that it is really hard even to break the top 10 list nowadays. I would say Xenoblade might be in the top 10 though. It certainly is the best one of the last ten years.
TechnoBlast649 I feel as if Xenoblade isn't that good, in my opinion. Giant open world with nothing in it, long grinding, repetitive quests and a story that was amazing up until *spoilers* Dickson betrays you and the mystery of the world is ruined when they explain how the world was created in such a stupid way *end of spoilers* I really do hate the ending.
It's the best selling Xeno game yet! (Yes Xeno, not just Xenoblade!) It sold 1.74 million copies (that was before E3, I'm sure is going to be 2 million by the end of the year!)
BigRobit X is too new. Splatoon is the closest he has ever gotten to playing a game when it was new and it took him around a year to compile research on the weapons before he even started.
All of Splatoon's content wasn't available from the very start. After one year, all of the extra stuff was out, and chugga did his playthrough a few months after that.
Every once in a while I like to come back and watch this trailer, and remember how excited I was at the reveal of what would become one of my favorite games of all time
3 years later and the reveal trailer here still gets me all teary-eyed and happy.😭 This game is such a masterpiece; I'm looking forward to having it and Xenoblade 1 on the same console!💗
Tell your cousin and friends and everybody about and to like this game But use a camera that can show to screens everywhere around the world with subtitles in each country Because it deserves 5.5m likes
Of of the best RPGs ive ever played...slow start but grew to real love in my heart. The music the characters, the story, the fighting, the journey. Was sad when it ended.
I said to myself when the Switch was first announced: "The only game series I like so much that I would get a new game console just for them are Super Mario Galaxy and Xenoblade." I have no intention of taking that back.
What I was intending to imply was that *SPOILERS* Either this is the world that Shulk created at the end of Xenoblade Chronicles, or if you remember the conversation Egil and Arglas had about a world beyond the Bionis and Mechonis, it may be that. Come on, from what we see, this is the closest thing to a direct sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles that we're gonna get, so I gotta brainstorm some ideas!
That's an interesting idea about the 'world beyond'. Though I doubt it since since the setting is so much like the world on Bionis & Mechonis. If this was a different world than the setting would be vastly different. I think the game will be somewhere in the future. 50-1000 years. Either Shulk is alive and old or this is generations later.
Yeah! I dunno about the "50 years later" part, because X already takes place in 2054, but you may be right! Either way, the world Shulk creates doesn't visually look too different from the Colony 9 on Bionis. SO geographically, it still looks similar, just like in this trailer! If characters from Xenoblade Chronicles are appearing, I want to say it happens 5-10 years later. If not, then yeah, I like your idea of hundreds of years later! SO MUCH POTENTIAL!
Going back to rewatch the initial trailers, and I notice something extending past the World Tree, and even seems to extend into it slightly. GOD DAMMIT MONOLITH, IT WAS RIGHT THERE IN THE FIRST TRAILER! HOW DID WE NOT NOTICE YOUR FREAKING SPACE ELEVATOR?!
I picked this game up back when I was starting high school and my god by the time I had finished the story, my mind was blown. This game changed my perspective on gaming as a whole and has made me play a large plethora of games. When Xenoblade 3 got announced I was very excited but was also kind of sad too. I’d burried this game under hundred of other games trying to find a game like it and out of the whole journey of playing games I had only discovered two games that had given me great experiences. In the end I discovered that playing all these other experiences was me searching for another Xenoblade. And with that realization my desire to play more games shrunk to wanting to only play what I knew I could play in a timely manner (turns out not many). I am still in high school now, but I’m currently moving into the final years left. This game is hella important to me and the grander series has shown me that no matter how many experiences bury Xenoblade 2 my love for it is very much going be present for a very a very long time.
Xenogears is worth it just for the story alone. It's one of my favorite stories in fiction period. I played Xenogears when I started highschool and it was an extremely mind-blowing experience considering that this was back in 1998.
So, I've never played any game in this series but I had recently finished Odyssey to 100% so I figured I'd chance it and pick this up since it was another Switch exclusive. By the end of Chapter One, I ended up going back to the shop so I could return it. It's not that it was bad, I just needed to get the Special Edition before they ran out because holy crap was I not expecting it to suck me in so fast. It looks a bit odd in handheld mode and sometimes the English VO doesn't match the emotion the character is showing but that aside, my gosh is it so good.
The game isn’t without its flaws and the original is a little better but this game is still beautiful. And seriously that ending message is so important that everyone needs to know about it.
Damn. This is a best game bruh. Don't listen to theses dislike and hater. This game is a must buy if you own a switch. It's probably the best rpg game on the switch. It took me 137 hours to finish MY FIRST playthrought. And now there is the prequel dlc. This is 100% worth the money and the time.
It’s always so crazy looking back on things. I was still in school when this came out. Listening to this trailer, it feels different than my memories of the game. I more remember the feeling of not knowing and speculating what this all would mean. I was even younger for XCX, crazy. Also side point. I know Japanese now so that’s also retexturing my nostalgia
Same. Unfortunately I fell in with the crowd of people at the time that dismissed this game because of the more anime-like aesthetic. I was a big fan of 1 and seeing this trailer when it came out felt weird. I’ve come around since then though, 2 is absolutely amazing.
If you wanna live you sometimes have to sell your soul to the devil. It saved FE. Nintendo seems to appreciate the raw talent of Monolith soft, but i somehow doubt they are gonna keep this up if the franchise doesn't pick up.
That line actually wasn't very well translated. A better translation would have been "I love this world because YOU ALL are in it." She very distinctly uses the word "mina", which means "everyone". A literal translation would be "I love this world because everyone is in it." So far, we should be okay. She may yet turn out to be "that" sort of character, but we have nothing to base that on yet.
One of the main reasons why I wasn't sold into XCX - music there was huge step down, compared to Xenoblade Chronicles. I said to myself the same, when I saw the names. I'm sold.
S. Sz. I love XC's music, but XCX's is honestly better (except NLA). The overworld themes are infinitely better. Satorl Marsh is great, but it's got nothing on Sylvalum Night. Also the boss themes, like Luxaar's. Codename Z, Theme X, and so many more... The only theme I regularly listen to from XC is the Main Theme, which is one of my favorite video game songs
Alex Le Satorl Marsh is super peaceful, but it's kinda boring at parts. Sylvalum is peaceful at first but then becomes so.... powerful(? can't think of a good word). It's amazingly atmospheric. But then again, so is satorl marsh.... IDK how to describe my thoughts
Impossible not to be touched by this Gormott soundtrack, this game is incredible, congratulations to Monolith and Nintendo for making this work of art.
El Rocky Raccoon Too bad he didn't do much for the first Xenoblade, hopefully he'll get to compose more,I'm sad they didn't get Shimomura back, though.
The memories of Switch launching with this masterpiece is something I'll never forget and now we are nearing end lifecycle of the wonderful all-time great system. Monolith Soft have become my fav game developers and cannot wait to see what's in store going forward :-)
Y'know, a boss in X was called Yggralith, and in Norse mythology there is a tree called Yggdrasil, and that is like the tree seen with the giant creature in the background
I'm super excited for Xenoblade 2! Character art looks great and the environments are insanely beautiful. Knowing Monolithsoft, the scope of this game will be huge.
They shouldn't even bother with Treehouse or NA localization of any kind. Just do what they did with the first game and have a Japanese and Europe version only and it will be perfect.
The Switch is Region Free. My best bet is for people who want JP voice acting and english subtitles is to get the Asia version and import that. The asia version is usually made for Singapore and Hong Kong etc.
I’m hear after finishing the game a few days ago, and I still can’t stop playing. I knew since I heard the music in this trailer this game would be incredible. But somehow the game surpassed my expectations. I laughed, I cried, and I had tons of fun. I can’t wait for the next one.
voιd ѕтar Nothing announced about what Monolith is doing next. Rumors are a new IP, perhaps an action RPG, still open world. But they could do 3. Or they could do X2.
That music towards the end got me in the feels. *That* is what was missing in Xenoblade X. A superb soundtrack with some emotions in it. EDIT: They even got composers from the original soundtrack back! Just give me a good plot, likeable/developed characters, a playable Nopon, and I'll be good.
Never played the first Xenoblade. Never cared to. Only bought a wii for wii sports. I was young, foolish, the most casual of casual. My range was COD and Halo. So i have no bias towards the original, and all i have to say is, why do people not like the art style? It looks pretty beautiful to me. Is it more realistic than the original? Is it more cartoony? I need answers.
Shuriken dongle The art style of the first game was a lot more realistic than this one. I think this is going to be the Windwaker of the Xenoblade series: people complain how cartoony it looks, but when they will play it they will love it. It was always more about the story than the graphics after all
All we need is some new mechanic similar to Visions but even gradually better Medium to fast Chain attacks Classic Gameplay British voice actors Playable Nopon and or New Species Brand New Fresh Music Lots of areas and a great story or even better storyline than XC1 and it'll deliver.
Nah visions were cool (the way they implemented them was kinda intrusive though). Know what's boring in games? Easy enemies that all work the same. Visions gave a way to have stronger enemies be fatal and include ways to go against those fatal attacks. It made enemies feel more dangerous. Didn't like the music tho and I could live without them, I just want a somewhat slower, methodical combat back.
Quexlaw That's kinda what I said. The concept is awesome, but when going against a lot of enemies they're super annoying (one after another, after another..). I hope they develop a new, unique mechanic
Please, a new port/HD remaster to Xenoblade Chronicles. I won't buy a New 3DS for a portable port of the original Xenoblade. Xenoblade is so awesome, that's why it needs to be ported every generation of consoles.
Gefl Gabe *cough* Fire Emblem *cough* To be honest, I can live with it if it doesn't take the fire emblem route and actually implement shipping (God knows how that shaped FE)
Fire Emblem has always been anime. So was Shin Megami Tensei. What happened was they decided on an extremely Japanese theme to base the crossover on, and apparently it was a great game in the end anyway even if that theme did alienate a bunch of people due to being so foreign.
Fun to come here after Xenoblade Chronicles 3 closed out the latest Direct ...Also fun to realize jeez this version of Gormott's soundtrack is great with the more resounding drums
Thanks to these kind of games, the Switch became the console that we know today, in conparison with many other consoles, this is one of the greatest early console titles of all times.
Rafael Bernal Was the music that bad? I freakin loved the Ost for XCX. It was weird at first but it then it grew on me a few hours in. Now compared to the XC Ost of course thats debatable. Love them both in there own ways.
I like it I also think Nintendo should keep this approach Any games set in the original Xenoblade Chronicles should have an established main character And any games set in Xenoblade Chronicles X's Mira should let you create your own character Boom. You're covering both bases and playing to each world's strengths (Heavy story and narrative for Bionis-Mechonis setting, and total freedom in gameplay/character creation and a lot of exploration for Mira)
The character here looks really bland making me believe you create your own character which is disappointing to me since it usually takes away from the story
Charles .Firebird97 Erm.... no he wasn't? He got an amazing development as a character throughout the story and by the end of the game he's a completely different person than he was at the start. That's 'bland'?
Pikagal 31 Anthony Diecidue stated that this new character looks pretty bland. Design wise, Shulk was pretty bland. Sure he was cool story wise. But in design he wasn't anything special aside from the Monado. If we are talking about about just in story, I don't see how one can judge the character in Xenoblade 2 since we only got like 3 seconds of him talking.
I ve played XC on Wii, I ve played XC on New 3ds, I ve played X on Wii U, I ve played XC2 on Switch, I ve played XCDE on Switch, I ve played XC3 on Switch...several times, and it will always be 2 for me. 2 is the best XC for me.
Nintendo and Monolith Soft, thank you for giving us this beautiful, meaningful game. I'm a new gamer, and after playing it for 175 hours, it became the first game that I have ever finished. Thank you so much.
Major props to Nintendo for financing Monolithsoft and their crazy ambitious games.
Monolith helped them out on the new Zelda, so they're getting their money's worth
Ryan Hall Nintendo OWNS MonolithSoft, so they're one and the same
Nintendo owns Monolith Soft
Ryan Hall no wonder. It's owned by Nintendo. But Monolith is a little different that it still can work under its former employer, Bandai Namco. Hmm.
Monolith Soft is owned by Nintendo and is considered a subsidiary. Much like Naughty Dog is a subsidiary to Sony
That final shot of Rex starting at the world tree will forever be in my head as one of the nicest shots I've seen in a trailer ever.
This+ the song and the titan flying by with his voice.. Man this scene is legendary, u can feel something. greatest scene ever
I was literally crying when this was announced, I was so happy
Should have been the main menu screen
Well now I think the xenoblade 3 final shot is better.

My life is officially complete
Pete Indeed.
It feels like Xenoblade is going to 'replace' Fire Emblem in some way
nah
Leaf Nah

Jonah Simm same. I'm unbelievably hyped for this but kinda disappointed that this probably means no X 2. that open ending is gonna haunt me lol
ArtemisAddict it's still possible we'll get X2, they might be doing switched-up (heh) releases, XC release, XX release, XC release, etc.
ArtemisAddict i think they will switch between the to, and yes pun intended. sequel to X might be next
Jonah Simm sammmeeee
DigiBradChannel God I hope that's the case. Of the two, X definitely needs a sequel more after that cliffhanger ending. Still, I'm not complaining personally.
Man all this artstyle hating is really giving me some Wind Waker flashbacks, and everyone ended up loving it after a while...
KnokaBrokaTowah
To be fair Wind Waker was a style change, not a Downgrade
It also didn't change links outfit to short shorts with a half thigh gap and give him the worlds bulkiest and small backpack
How exactly is this a downgrade?
Just because the art style was changed doesn't necessarily mean it's a downgrade. The game still looks beautiful.
Shifting from pseudorealism to anime-style is considered a downgrade, now?
As long as changing equipment still changes the character's appearance, the base outfit really isn't that big of a deal to me.
Jokes aside il buy the switch alone for this game. Xenoblade on the Wii was hands down one of the greatest story driven games i ever played and knowing theres a sequel to that masterpiece sends shivers through my body.

So, this is now the most viewed Xenoblade trailer ever, passing the Xenoblade Chronicles X E3 2013 trailer. All in less than a month. Impressive.

Xenoblade for Wii is the best JRPG of all time. Can't wait to play this sequel! Hope the Monado mechanics return!

I would say Xenoblade might be in the top 10 though. It certainly is the best one of the last ten years.

HAHA! Oh you've got to be joking right? Kingdom Hearts is the best JRPG ever. Some much better combat system and story (I could go on) then Xenoblade.
2017 IS ALREADY BETTER THAN 2016. We're getting Xenoblade 2 THIS YEAR?! BROOOOOOOO.

Hope Nintendo fanboys will finally buy AAA games out of the "Nintendo core" (Zelda, Mario etc).

Arnold Eli, you won't regret it.
Good news this game preformed incredibly well selling 1 million copies in under a month
Good news its not, im from the future and i'm here to tell you it has sold really well.

Joseph Cruz in really feeling that this will be a good game. But I mustn't be careless putting all of my trust into it
Joseph Cruz
as someone who has never played this franchise, should I buy the first game, or will this sequel be more stand alone (if you know)?
Karen Thompson play the original. Either wii or new 3ds. Just a warning though the wii version is hard to find
You could always just get an emulator though
Unjo Gratis The Forbidden Monkey God thanks! Luckily I've got a 3ds not a wii so I'll try that
Of of the best RPGs ive ever played...slow start but grew to real love in my heart. The music the characters, the story, the fighting, the journey. Was sad when it ended.
I loved this RPG too. When I saw the trailer for the first time all those years ago, I was like yea, I NEED that.
I went completely blind into this game, and it became one of my favorite games ever along with other Xenoblade games
I said to myself when the Switch was first announced: "The only game series I like so much that I would get a new game console just for them are Super Mario Galaxy and Xenoblade."
I have no intention of taking that back.
It doesn't matter whether Super Mario Odyssey is close enough to Galaxy because Xenoblade 2 is already announced.
Prescott Yes. I'm not the only one who loved Super Mario Galaxy and Xenoblade Chronicles.
Encantadia AvatarHSM64 why on earth would you be the only one smh
Encantadia AvatarHSM64 a lotbof people loved those games. including me.
I bet you would love zelda too. Since you are buying switch try it at first chance.
"And so... what we wish for is... a world with no gods!"
Yeah. I wonder if Alvis could make an appearance again.
MrSleepyhead32 Alvis is a computer. These people live inside of him
What I was intending to imply was that *SPOILERS*
Either this is the world that Shulk created at the end of Xenoblade Chronicles, or if you remember the conversation Egil and Arglas had about a world beyond the Bionis and Mechonis, it may be that. Come on, from what we see, this is the closest thing to a direct sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles that we're gonna get, so I gotta brainstorm some ideas!
That's an interesting idea about the 'world beyond'. Though I doubt it since since the setting is so much like the world on Bionis & Mechonis. If this was a different world than the setting would be vastly different. I think the game will be somewhere in the future. 50-1000 years. Either Shulk is alive and old or this is generations later.
Yeah! I dunno about the "50 years later" part, because X already takes place in 2054, but you may be right! Either way, the world Shulk creates doesn't visually look too different from the Colony 9 on Bionis. SO geographically, it still looks similar, just like in this trailer! If characters from Xenoblade Chronicles are appearing, I want to say it happens 5-10 years later. If not, then yeah, I like your idea of hundreds of years later! SO MUCH POTENTIAL!
Going back to rewatch the initial trailers, and I notice something extending past the World Tree, and even seems to extend into it slightly.
GOD DAMMIT MONOLITH, IT WAS RIGHT THERE IN THE FIRST TRAILER! HOW DID WE NOT NOTICE YOUR FREAKING SPACE ELEVATOR?!
I picked this game up back when I was starting high school and my god by the time I had finished the story, my mind was blown. This game changed my perspective on gaming as a whole and has made me play a large plethora of games. When Xenoblade 3 got announced I was very excited but was also kind of sad too.
I’d burried this game under hundred of other games trying to find a game like it and out of the whole journey of playing games I had only discovered two games that had given me great experiences. In the end I discovered that playing all these other experiences was me searching for another Xenoblade. And with that realization my desire to play more games shrunk to wanting to only play what I knew I could play in a timely manner (turns out not many). I am still in high school now, but I’m currently moving into the final years left. This game is hella important to me and the grander series has shown me that no matter how many experiences bury Xenoblade 2 my love for it is very much going be present for a very a very long time.
Did you play Definitive Edition yet?
If you haven't dived into the other Xeno games (Xenogears and Xenosaga), I'd recommend doing so
@@TheSpiralProgression yea I finished it a month or two ago, haven’t finished future connected though.
@@BeeLy1011 definitely have been thinking of trying out Xenogears, but I don’t have any system to play it on, might emulate it
Xenogears is worth it just for the story alone. It's one of my favorite stories in fiction period. I played Xenogears when I started highschool and it was an extremely mind-blowing experience considering that this was back in 1998.
So, I've never played any game in this series but I had recently finished Odyssey to 100% so I figured I'd chance it and pick this up since it was another Switch exclusive.
By the end of Chapter One, I ended up going back to the shop so I could return it. It's not that it was bad, I just needed to get the Special Edition before they ran out because holy crap was I not expecting it to suck me in so fast.
It looks a bit odd in handheld mode and sometimes the English VO doesn't match the emotion the character is showing but that aside, my gosh is it so good.
July Jaziel Yeah I already finished the story cause I played so much. The ending song is so beautiful, I'm not ashamed to say I cried
You only cried at the ending song?
Zafran Orbian what do you mean? The ending made me cry, the song just amplified it
brennan weaver I mean there were plenty of times before the ending were I cryed a bit. For example when Nia finally stops hiding her true self.
The game isn’t without its flaws and the original is a little better but this game is still beautiful. And seriously that ending message is so important that everyone needs to know about it.
You know why you’re here.
Pyra nd mythra smash doc
Damn. This is a best game bruh. Don't listen to theses dislike and hater. This game is a must buy if you own a switch. It's probably the best rpg game on the switch. It took me 137 hours to finish MY FIRST playthrought. And now there is the prequel dlc. This is 100% worth the money and the time.
It’s always so crazy looking back on things. I was still in school when this came out. Listening to this trailer, it feels different than my memories of the game. I more remember the feeling of not knowing and speculating what this all would mean. I was even younger for XCX, crazy.
Also side point. I know Japanese now so that’s also retexturing my nostalgia
Same. Unfortunately I fell in with the crowd of people at the time that dismissed this game because of the more anime-like aesthetic. I was a big fan of 1 and seeing this trailer when it came out felt weird. I’ve come around since then though, 2 is absolutely amazing.
Making me feel old when people say they were still in school when this dropped
"I love this world because you're in it!"
Waifu confirmed?
Charmolution Oh God I don't want Xenoblade to take the Fire Emblem route.
fandom will screw it, it it becomes popular, sadly, life is.
If you wanna live you sometimes have to sell your soul to the devil.
It saved FE.
Nintendo seems to appreciate the raw talent of Monolith soft, but i somehow doubt they are gonna keep this up if the franchise doesn't pick up.
That line actually wasn't very well translated. A better translation would have been "I love this world because YOU ALL are in it."
She very distinctly uses the word "mina", which means "everyone". A literal translation would be "I love this world because everyone is in it."
So far, we should be okay. She may yet turn out to be "that" sort of character, but we have nothing to base that on yet.
well she just said "you". There isn't any context yet, so she could mean a bunch of people or just one single person.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Yasunori Mitsuda, ACE, Manami Kiyota
I'm sold. Thank you Monolith Soft
One of the main reasons why I wasn't sold into XCX - music there was huge step down, compared to Xenoblade Chronicles. I said to myself the same, when I saw the names. I'm sold.
S. Sz. I love XC's music, but XCX's is honestly better (except NLA). The overworld themes are infinitely better. Satorl Marsh is great, but it's got nothing on Sylvalum Night. Also the boss themes, like Luxaar's. Codename Z, Theme X, and so many more... The only theme I regularly listen to from XC is the Main Theme, which is one of my favorite video game songs
Matt16006 when have they ever disappointed us?
Course the music from the original is better, but missing out on a great game just for the music...
Alex Le Satorl Marsh is super peaceful, but it's kinda boring at parts. Sylvalum is peaceful at first but then becomes so.... powerful(? can't think of a good word). It's amazingly atmospheric. But then again, so is satorl marsh.... IDK how to describe my thoughts
Baby: Mmmm... mmm
Mom: Mom? Mommy?
Baby: Mm... MANADO LEND ME YOUR POWER
XD
made my day!!!
Impossible not to be touched by this Gormott soundtrack, this game is incredible, congratulations to Monolith and Nintendo for making this work of art.
Now it's REYN TIME
Kenn Reed yee
Kenn Reed I'M REALLY FEELING IT
Man, What a bunch of Jokahs.
You can't have a rainbow without Reyn, baby!
Don't give 'em an inch, Reyn!
Xenoblade 2 was a masterpiece. Will the reveal of 3, I am super excited
Very true, Zach lad. I concur.
I cried a little when I saw Yasunori Mitsuda's name. Someone that really knows how to compose.
Are you implying they would hire people who don't know how to compose?
No, no. I mean I'm glad they hired Yasunori because of the great stuff he did in the past, like Chrono Trigger and Xenogears.
El Rocky Raccoon Too bad he didn't do much for the first Xenoblade, hopefully he'll get to compose more,I'm sad they didn't get Shimomura back, though.
Guess it was too much to ask, for them to get Hiroyuki Sawano on board for this game.
And today we got Xenoblade 3 trailer, how fast does time fly.
I really can't wait to change those pants
That was my first thought!
The memories of Switch launching with this masterpiece is something I'll never forget and now we are nearing end lifecycle of the wonderful all-time great system. Monolith Soft have become my fav game developers and cannot wait to see what's in store going forward :-)
I had to come back to this after the reveal of Xenoblade 3
man its really been 5 years....
The game sold 2 million copies 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Congrats to Monolith Soft!!!
Y'know, a boss in X was called Yggralith, and in Norse mythology there is a tree called Yggdrasil, and that is like the tree seen with the giant creature in the background
and that looks like a white whale, which is the same name of the ark ship in xcx
Does that mean this all 3 games link with each other?
My mind is blown. Two links to X in one screen.
That is likely what they are referencing. The Yggdrasil was the ship used in Xenogears (Takahashi's first game back at Squaresoft).
the white whale...holy crap!! how i did not think of that!?
Yggralith
Yggrdrasil
Princess Yggdra from Yggdra Union confirmed for Xenoblade Chronicles 2!
Please I say as a fan, don't let this game ruin the perfect ending that was the original Xenoblade.
Then don't buy it. It's a sequel, thus a continuation.
Dr. Farewell >inb4 shulk is the final boss for some asspull about zanza still being inside him
the world looks completely different. It probably isnt a continuation, and lets hope that it isnt.
But the ending for Xenoblade was like the second worst thing about it. The first of course being THAT boss.
They could Final Fantasy is and have it be completely separate aside from a few things.
Still one of my favorites of all time. Controversial for some of the stupidest reasons ever honestly. Hope Rex finally makes it in Smash.
Doctor Minjinx definitely this. People just love making excuses to hate things for stupid reasons
With Min min coming to smash it’s now more possible for Rex or Jin maybe to join too
Most people agree with you. The ones who don’t just like wasting their time yelling at fans. The majority really loved the game!
Pyra's in smash lmaoo
@@acrdrifter5610 YEESSS!!!! SO HAPPY!!
This game is right up there with FF9 , incredible story
I finished both Xenoblade 1 and 2, and I was going to play Xenoblade x, Okami, or Final Fantasy 9 soon.
I'm super excited for Xenoblade 2! Character art looks great and the environments are insanely beautiful. Knowing Monolithsoft, the scope of this game will be huge.
Who's here for the 5 year anniversary ?
Pleeeeeaaase have Dual Audio.
Or at least get Nintendo of Europe to localise it. They did a fantastic job with the first game.
Now it's Reyn.......you get the picture.
It's being released in Japan and Europe before America so it's very likely
Good thing: no region lock on Switch.
They shouldn't even bother with Treehouse or NA localization of any kind. Just do what they did with the first game and have a Japanese and Europe version only and it will be perfect.
The Switch is Region Free. My best bet is for people who want JP voice acting and english subtitles is to get the Asia version and import that. The asia version is usually made for Singapore and Hong Kong etc.
One of my all time favorite games.
Still my favorite Switch game.
My second
favourite ost of all time
@@questionmarkquestionmarkques Great choice my dude. This game definitely has one of my all time favorite soundtracks as well :)
I’m hear after finishing the game a few days ago, and I still can’t stop playing. I knew since I heard the music in this trailer this game would be incredible. But somehow the game surpassed my expectations. I laughed, I cried, and I had tons of fun. I can’t wait for the next one.
Schu Fighters
Any idea about the next game?
voιd ѕтar Nothing announced about what Monolith is doing next. Rumors are a new IP, perhaps an action RPG, still open world. But they could do 3. Or they could do X2.
Hoooo boy, Xenoblade 3 looks even better!! So hyped!!!
@@CaptainCoolzCT- It's gonna be a masterpieve just like the other 2
Uraya is at the end of this trailer and Xeno 3 trailer
I think the devs got confused and accidentally made a Tales game.
Who's here after Xenoblade Chronicles 3 was announced? Such an epic game!
Sincerely,
I finished XC3, very nice( don't want to give spoiler)
That music towards the end got me in the feels. *That* is what was missing in Xenoblade X. A superb soundtrack with some emotions in it.
EDIT: They even got composers from the original soundtrack back!
Just give me a good plot, likeable/developed characters, a playable Nopon, and I'll be good.
Pit ピット Also, keep the gameplay from X!
DONT FORGET THE MECHAS PLEASE.
Pit ピット I would have cried if they had the original Xenoblade Menu music playing for pure nostalgia
Pit ピット don't forget mechas this is the Xeno series afterall.
I love that they have the same music composer team that was in the first Xenoblade. It has my favorite ost of all time :D
This game is so excellent that even its trailer manages to make me nostalgic
Never played the first Xenoblade. Never cared to. Only bought a wii for wii sports. I was young, foolish, the most casual of casual. My range was COD and Halo. So i have no bias towards the original, and all i have to say is, why do people not like the art style? It looks pretty beautiful to me. Is it more realistic than the original? Is it more cartoony? I need answers.
It's more anime-esque then the first one, but I personally don't mind it. It looks beautiful.
Newbius93 Thanks man
Shuriken dongle The art style of the first game was a lot more realistic than this one. I think this is going to be the Windwaker of the Xenoblade series: people complain how cartoony it looks, but when they will play it they will love it. It was always more about the story than the graphics after all
Jérémy Lauzon They look so... Anime though!
max brandsma you're playing a game for gameplay, why do you care about the graphics?
This game maybe 5 years old but it's still deserves even even more likes
Watching this as I pray for that Xenoblade 3 reveal today
GUESS WHAT?!
BROOOOOO
All we need is
some new mechanic similar to Visions but even gradually better
Medium to fast Chain attacks
Classic Gameplay
British voice actors
Playable Nopon and or New Species
Brand New Fresh Music
Lots of areas
and a great story or even better storyline than XC1
and it'll deliver.
and a mumkhar
and shulk
The visions were a cool concept, but I hate them in gameplay. I would actually be so disappointed if they were in this game
Nah visions were cool (the way they implemented them was kinda intrusive though). Know what's boring in games? Easy enemies that all work the same. Visions gave a way to have stronger enemies be fatal and include ways to go against those fatal attacks. It made enemies feel more dangerous. Didn't like the music tho and I could live without them, I just want a somewhat slower, methodical combat back.
Quexlaw That's kinda what I said. The concept is awesome, but when going against a lot of enemies they're super annoying (one after another, after another..). I hope they develop a new, unique mechanic
boy... this made me cry at the end
Please, a new port/HD remaster to Xenoblade Chronicles. I won't buy a New 3DS for a portable port of the original Xenoblade. Xenoblade is so awesome, that's why it needs to be ported every generation of consoles.
I still love this thing, specially after playing Torna Golden COuntry DLC.
*speaks in a heavy Shenlong voice: "Your wish has been granted"
Wish granted.
I got my eye on that art style... Anime killed the chosen crossover between my favorite 2 RPGs and I'll remember it.
Gefl Gabe #Neverforget Fiya Emberu
Gefl Gabe Isn't FE "anime" already?
Gefl Gabe *cough* Fire Emblem *cough*
To be honest, I can live with it if it doesn't take the fire emblem route and actually implement shipping (God knows how that shaped FE)
Fire Emblem has always been anime. So was Shin Megami Tensei. What happened was they decided on an extremely Japanese theme to base the crossover on, and apparently it was a great game in the end anyway even if that theme did alienate a bunch of people due to being so foreign.
Gefl Gabe FE was always like that and SMT is about demons and murdering said demons.
4 years since this and after playing and finish the game, i can says that I love the game it's one of my favorite games
Thank you Monolith Soft
Fun to come here after Xenoblade Chronicles 3 closed out the latest Direct
...Also fun to realize jeez this version of Gormott's soundtrack is great with the more resounding drums
Thanks to these kind of games, the Switch became the console that we know today, in conparison with many other consoles, this is one of the greatest early console titles of all times.
Huh guys... don't hate. But we still have a cliffhanger on the XCX ending... I need nintendo to fix that
Rafael Bernal Probably the next game or the one after
I mean i can wait... XCX was amazing and had one of the best stories i ever played.. the ending and the music were crap tho
Rafael Bernal Was the music that bad? I freakin loved the Ost for XCX. It was weird at first but it then it grew on me a few hours in. Now compared to the XC Ost of course thats debatable. Love them both in there own ways.
Rafael Bernal same
Rafael Bernal no music was awesome it was hype.
1:03 still gives me shivers
Every xenoblade is now on switch
This makes me super emotional, what a good trailer
I like it
I also think Nintendo should keep this approach
Any games set in the original Xenoblade Chronicles should have an established main character
And any games set in Xenoblade Chronicles X's Mira should let you create your own character
Boom. You're covering both bases and playing to each world's strengths (Heavy story and narrative for Bionis-Mechonis setting, and total freedom in gameplay/character creation and a lot of exploration for Mira)
Charles Carrera That's..........actually not a bad idea.
The character here looks really bland making me believe you create your own character which is disappointing to me since it usually takes away from the story
Dude, Shulk was pretty bland too.
Charles .Firebird97 Erm.... no he wasn't? He got an amazing development as a character throughout the story and by the end of the game he's a completely different person than he was at the start. That's 'bland'?
Pikagal 31 Anthony Diecidue stated that this new character looks pretty bland. Design wise, Shulk was pretty bland. Sure he was cool story wise. But in design he wasn't anything special aside from the Monado. If we are talking about about just in story, I don't see how one can judge the character in Xenoblade 2 since we only got like 3 seconds of him talking.
Screw the art style! We're getting a sequel to one of the best JRPGs EVER MADE!
I don't think there is anything wrong with the artstyle.
I personally like the artstyle its different but in a good way
I'll get used to it. :)
TheManiacZach You know you will like it!
TheManiacZach ehhh no its not one of the best
Square Enix became a joke. Monolith, you are the one I can rely on now.
I ve played XC on Wii, I ve played XC on New 3ds, I ve played X on Wii U, I ve played XC2 on Switch, I ve played XCDE on Switch, I ve played XC3 on Switch...several times, and it will always be 2 for me. 2 is the best XC for me.
OMG! NOPON AT 0:44
THEY WILL NEVER GO EXTINCT!!!!! EVER!!!!!!!!
Flowey The flower The only true Nopon is Riki :'(
Rival Wally no, Tatsu is best nopon
Labolas tatsu ist Just food heute doesn't Count XD
Labolas Please, you're killing me with these unfunny jokes.
Nintendo and Monolith Soft, thank you for giving us this beautiful, meaningful game. I'm a new gamer, and after playing it for 175 hours, it became the first game that I have ever finished.
Thank you so much.
I NEED TO PLAY THE 1ST ONE HYPE
Get on that Bro! 1st game is amazing
Donutgames00 It's so long but sooo worth it
Donutgames00 DO IT. The first one is literally perfect.
It's on the Wii U eShop for $20. Get it. You won't regret it.
Donutgames00 can I go into this game without having played the first one ?
4 years... I'm crying...
One of the best jrpg
Ending still gives me chills
Yasunori Mitsuda is back❤️
Monolith soft is about to make 15 look like a joke
This game is better than Ff 15 already
Every Xenoblade game is better than Final Fantasy XV.
lol they totally did.
