- I'm so sorry this video took ages to edit. I'll try to be a bit faster with Chapter 7 BUT I do want to put a lot of love into it.
Thank you for your patience! This series is so special to me, and I want to do this series justice. I've been so conflicted about the length of these videos, but ultimately I decided to keep them pretty long and do minimal cuts to the story.

“My therapist will be hearing about this.” 😂 fair.
What a move, making your therapist play through Xenoblade 1, 2 and 3 with the excuse it is relevant to the job.
@@foultarnished3134 To be perfectly fair, these 3 games have about as much psychiatric relevance through each character's emotion, reasons, and player empathy to equal a whole course is psychiatry.
@@foultarnished3134 it's true tho
The true chapter 6 experience: crying and debating over Mio's hair for far too long.
Basically what I did my first time through.
And then finding out you can change it whenever you want so all that deliberation was for nothing.
Don’t you just love when Xenoblade gives you a decision about something that really doesn’t need to be decide by you?😂
@@andytheawesome7592 IKR!? I was like, "Bruh, why make it seem like a big deal if I can change it whenever I want!?" Spent a good 10 minutes going back and forth because both look good on her!
I mean, I think the idea was to make it FEEL like a one-time decision. If people already knew you could change it whenever, then people wouldn't give it too much thought.
@@starflame34doesn’t help this was equivalent to the Pythra decision
@@lucasdunk2536this one’s definitely better tho. Xenoblade 2 could’ve given us the option to actually call her Pythra but didn’t
Mio passing away in the hospital and noah leaving his child alone in the woods broke me more then anything else in this game I cried for hours FOR HOURS
Having kids of my own, I felt Noah’s loss there. It was really moving.
@@allendelarosa0525 oh loard and there's gunna be another story later on this year in the DLCZ I CANT WATCH ANYTGING THAT SAD AGSIN
Same, I didn't cried when Mio died Even if I was heartbroken but this scène however 😢😢😢😢😢😢
And then his son founded the original City and he destroyed it as moebius, lol, father of the year
Same here.
a tall 32 year old grown man just bursting out in tears.
This was so freakin painful, even without having kids.
33:19 I NEVER NOTICED RIKU RAISING HIS EYEBROWS WHEN X ASKS WHERE NOAH GOT THE SWORD
I just got to this cutscene and i’m just like “Well who else? 😏”
After Future Redeemed, it gets sooooo much funnier
@@UltimaPhoenix-dx3kt Hm.
(SPOILERS, WAIT FOR IT)
Riku and the number seven go together like chocolate and bacon - surprisingly well.
I'm reminded of that last line from Jin in Torna the Golden Country, where he was talking about Lora and said he "never wished for forever, it was enough to be just with her." Just like what M wanted with N.
And in THAT case, it's the complete opposite. N wanted to live with her forever, and he was last alive. But Jin wanted to be with her no matter how, and he lasted longer. They are opposites
Oh I cannot wait till Harry Mcentire (Noah's VA) gets to chapter 6 in his stream of this game. Cause its probably where he expressed the most range.
He's about half way through chapter 5 so we'll see it either tommorrow (Thursday) or the stream after
And then N proceeded to have a second catastrophic breakdown over burnt toast
19:57 THIS MOMENT! The realization hits N right as it hits you yourself and it's just so insane! Then of course it's followed up by the best voice acting from N. Like goddamn, you can FEEL his despair
I love the moment when Mio reveals herself. When she gives Noah Miyabi’s flute, that was all the proof Noah needed that this was *his* Mio. Back in Chapter 4, when they swapped flutes, it was more than just a cute bonding moment; that was the writers moving a chess piece for later. If that was anyone else, even M, Noah would have been given his Kevesi flute. Such a masterful set up and pay off.
I think the breaking point for me during the chapter 5 ending was when N threw Noah his old flute. It was a slow realization, but when Noah couldn't hold it anymore it hit so hard
Yeah, what an amazing move on the story writers part
I'm so glad some other people have noticed! It took me a couple watches to catch that was *the moment* Noah picked up on something strange
The writers put a pawn past enemy lines so they could make it a queen
I have conflicting feelings on Shania. She’s had it rough, no doubt, and the only person she ever really talked to wasn’t the most stable relationship. That feeling of hopelessness about your situation no matter what you do really wears down on a person to the point of doing what she did. But at the same time, that doesn’t justify ending someone’s life to make your own better, especially when it’s an ENTIRE CITY. I guess that’s what makes N such a compelling villain. You don’t forgive them, but you understand why.
And about Shania, if we all think she's the worst for her treason, there's actually one character who is even worse than her. I won't say more in case either you or anyone reached "that part" (side quest), but truly, to me they are the worst, cruelest character of this game.
@@WolfiDemon SPOILER???

Pulipuli is truly the most despicable person in the xeno series
Shania is probably my favourite example of expectations create low self esteem in people, her entire upbringing was leading her on a downward spiral, from the only person in her life that saw her for herself and actually being supportive being her dead father, her abusive mother who even Monica wants to knock some sense into, for godsakes thats your only child and you treat her like shit and then get mad when she tries to kill you and everyone else in the city
Ghondor while she comes to realize later still doesn't change the fact that she's horrible at talking to people without coming off as rude and uncaring,
all these factors plus the weight of responsibility and family heritage took their toll on a girl who never had the ability to be a fighter in the first place
none of her backstory justifies killing innocents but it does make her worthy of sympathy because this wasn't an over night change, she wasn't a bad person to start but her insecurities mixed with a degenerating mental state took its toll on her until she came across mobieus and the rest is as we see, I see Shania as a tragic story of a monster that needed to be put down before it could cause real harm but never forgetting that monster was once human and needed support before she eventually broke and nothing could fix her
@@ilavain who's that again?
@@TimothyGod The one who ruins everything in colony 30
How lucky that D impaled Nia since she could survive as long as he didn't hit the core crystal, if that had been Melia intead Keves would've been short of one queen.
N's therapist is who really needs to hear about this... And Lanz's... Really, the whole cast is going to put someone's children through college...
I feel that N is so much more tragic than the game lets on. He clearly suffers from dependent personality disorder and obsessive love disorder. Beyond that, I think the saddest part is that, despite her claims, I don’t think M ever knew just how tormented N was before he became a consul. We are told and shown that trauma can lead to unblocking memories from a previous life and his trauma is the continual death of Mio, to the point that he relives her deaths in his nightmares - possibly every night. We have no evidence that he ever disclosed this information to her, likely wanting her to live a happier life unburdened by this knowledge, but because of how the reincarnation works, she would always die first (assuming she dies from reaching her term limit) having lived a full life, while N is always left to grieve over and over and over again. We are told the world is over 1000 years old and they can live at most 10 years at a time, I can’t imagine how many iterations it took before N finally couldn’t take it anymore.
I've played through 3 multiple times and still hadn't caught on to that in the whirlwind of emotions in chapter 6. Glad to have seen this comment and it made N from a depressing character to a soul crushing one.
@@BlazingBoltAeris I spend a lot of time thinking about N's character, because he really is tragic, especially when M confronts him in the city and tells him he has no right to speak of loss, it really hurt to see her disqualify his feelings and sacrifices when she likely never knew what he felt from the start.
@@Hellscream_9999 Not to trash Egil or Jin, but monolith absolutely nailed N (excellent ties to the main character, and an excellent character in his own right), he's easily one of the best tragic villains I've ever seen. In regards to that scene in the city, while obviously his pain doesn't justify his actions (which you're clearly not trying to say) it definitely hurts to see M's lack of understanding, and while in character, it doesn't make it hurt any less as a player. But the flaws of N and M make Noah and Mio's development both on their own and in relation to each other some of the best I've seen in fiction.
~~and yet we still see people claiming he's nothing but an incel.~~
@@BlazingBoltAeris Yes, N really got brought into his own with this game, whereas Jin I feel gets a lot of his issues buried beneath the philosophical topics the game was trying to broach, whereas in XC3 they just needed to show everyone was suffering from the endless now no matter whether they be villain or victim of the world.
@@Hellscream_9999 she had every right though, given the sheer magnitude of what he had done to their descendants, their people, and how he had violated her as well. No trauma he had could justify all that, only explain it.
On another note, the thousand years passed after N and M became Moebius, not before. We don't know how long Aionios existed before the original City was destroyed, but as far as we know there were not that many more incarnations than what we were shown, and in some of those lives M certainly had tragic ends as well. Not that it mattered, so long as there was enough trauma for Z to use.
Man... I didn't get a chance to talk about it since we were (rightfully) in Emote Only Jail, but Chapters 5 and 6 need to be in every literature curriculum in schools. Masterful storytelling. Noah and N are incredibly in depth and complex characters. It's physically painful to watch Noah lose Mio in every lifetime no matter what he does differently. While I don't condone N's actions, I understand him. Noah's VA absolutely went hard in his performances here.
The maternity ward scene and Noah and Mio's interactions at the beginning of Ch 5 hit so differently when you find out they did have a child together.
ETA: Noah screaming at N, "You're full of s***!" was BEAUTIFUL
Seeing Nia was amazing, especially with the Drifting Souls instrumental playing 😭
Chapter 5 and 6 are peak fiction honestly
@@linkalot7415 the later part of chapter 6 sucked though
Haha my class' topic was "Love and its forms", and we saw the story of Noah and Mio as part of that month's objective.
The writing is incredibly dull and lazy compared to 1 and 2, I would leave any class that uses this as an example
@@lilaclunablossom 1 is definitely stronger than 3 story wise, but no way in hell is 2 having a better story than 3. 2 had a horrible first half that took too long to open up. The great last two chapters don't make up for the the shit that came before that as well as the huge copout fan service ending.
Chapter six had a number of memorable moments, including some funny ones. Taion’s heart to heart with Eunie was heartwarming and also comical. Then there’s the conversation about Mio’s hair which I’m glad the boys weren’t involved in. And of course we have Noah being called a dummy for getting the wrong idea about the flute. Another one of mine is Sena being on board with Lanz’s swearing.
i've never seen the term dante be used in this way; what's the definition? [or connotation, even]
@@Highstar7331 sorry. Autocorrect did me dirty that time.
Noah literally wears his hair in a ponytail, and even then I bet he wouldn’t have known how to help Mio with her problem lol.
Cute dorks, I love them all.
I cried the most for N when we found out M was actually Noah’s Mio all along. This man lost everything is multiple lifetimes, and once again lost the only thing he ever wanted.
Heartbreaking honestly
Kinda deserved after everything N did to our Noah. Man was wallowing in his own sorrow and helplessness for a month straight
@@mx.e2176 Not really. I think that’s a rather toxic mentality to have against others. I think N suffered enough by becoming what he is. He IS living his punishment.
@@braydenleaderofthetirkins1143 he would have been suffering enough if not for the fact that he took that suffering out on countless innocent people
Not only that, but he CAUSED his own tragedy, making Noah feel the same helplessness he'd felt over countless lifetimes, even celebrating it before he realized what had happened. Practically a Shakespearean turn of events.
this is actually the best game series ever.
20:28 - yes, this voice acting!
Voice artist now playing this game and making voice for all lines that was without them.
IT’S BURNT
The music of Nia’s theme is amazing. It made me cry immediately
Isn't is drifting soul but without the words?
@@Not_aHorse it's a new rendition, way different than the violin no-lyrics version from XBC2 that plays during the Addam fight
@@ilavain I feel like the song fits malos more than nia tbh
@@Not_aHorse Malos' boss theme is already the best song in the game, he can share
@@ilavainas in the final boss theme or Incoming? Both are incredible you gotta clarify
I've always found it a little weird how people are so much more willing to sympathize with N than Shania. Both have reasons for doing what they did, but neither was justified.
Only two people actually ever died because of Shania's actions. One was herself, and the other was a guy during the prison break, who was actually killed by N. The same N who also slaughtered and entire city and likes to watch people suffer for fun.
Probably because we didn't really see why Shania became who she is until we do an ascension quest. With N, we see it in the beginning of chapter 6 before we defeat him.
Also it’s because N is Noah, who we’ve been controlling the whole game, so it’s much easier to relate to him, especially since we just lost OUR Mio the chapter before.
Hm... That's not quite right about "likes to make people suffer for fun"; like Riku pointed during the Agnus Castle prison sequence; "When people happy, they laugh. But N eyes are all sad."
N doesn't and never had real fun torturing people. He's torturing himself, literally so, as he does with Noah. They're the same person, Noah is the symbol of his hope and regrets.
N loathes to see his own image keep succeeding where he has failed; the thing is, N regretted what he did right after doing it. If anything, torturing Noah is a manifestation of self harm. The sequence of N lifting his sword to execute Noah is powerful because figuratively he's about to kill himself. Everything that N did, he hated it. He actually *wants* to have hope, but is horribly scared to fail once again, and hence another reason for him to try stopping Noah.
Legend says Sarah dies a little inside every time we get "Homecoming Mio."
it’s been so fun reliving xenoblade 3 with your play through :D
Mio is just a great actress. M switched with her in the prison escape battle and played the role of M the entire time until the homecoming ritual.
dont care what anyone else say xenoblade 3 is my game of the year for 2022 such an emotional ride
Wow, what mascara is that? The running is amazing! You got that "I was dumped on the limo ride to prom" look down perfectly!
In a world of waterproof mascaras you managed to seriously find the best one to cry in! I need to know what it is so I can share with GF.
I've watched the scenes at the end of Chapter 5 and beginning of Chapter 6 through various VODs and highlight videos numerous times. Never fails to make me shed tears.
The first thing I thought when I first played this part of the game and saw Nia get shot was "She's the strongest healer in the entire world, she's gonna be pissed when she wakes up after that"
1:22:40 as soon as I recognised the drifting souls leitmotiv I sarted crying so hard!
I'm so grateful you kept going with this. I've been wanting to see this reaction for awhile and I discovered a lot of your other content while waiting. So excited!
N is Anakin Skywalker actually well written
I love tragic characters like Jin and N, they're amazingly well written and pull at the heart strings just right.
The kid in the first 3 minutes is giving me Fayth vibes from FFX....I just kept thinking "You cried."
1:40:45 let's be clear here, any other flesh eater would absolutely have died there, it's only because her regeneration powers are so crazy strong that she survived at all, and even then it was not unscathed.
I always took it that all Blades regenerate as long as their Core is fine, and since she got shot in her "heart" and not her Core, she lived. Also that since she's the only "true" Blade in the game, Moebius didn't know how they worked and that's why D aimed for her heart. That's why Nia said "two cetris to the right," because that's where her Core is. Though I suppose her regen abilities would help with her human half, since she's only half Blade.
@@4137Swords yeah that makes a lot of sense, maybe I misinterpreted that. I just remembered that flesh eaters age like humans, but it makes sense that they all regenerate like blades.
@@byrontheusurper6505 I think it's only the true flesh eaters. Because cole said he lost his immortality, so any blade or fully made hybrid would probably have survived there.
@@4137Swords I'm pretty sure this is a more correct interpretation
I waited patiently and it was absolutely worth it. Thank you for the love and care that has gone into this. It shows, and it helps carry the emotion through to the viewer.
Chapter 6 was essentially a contest of which Noah was the most Noah, and since our Noah still has a Mio, he’s the most Noah-est of all, easily out-Noahing N.
I love the agnus castle theme, I'm such a sucker for choir tracks and this one's ungodly beautiful! Even tho it's such a traumatic Spot, I'd always stop and listen to the music when I was there!
Yay! Chapter 6 is finally here! I know why Elden RIng won the award, but Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is the TRUE best game of 2022!
the voice acting in this game is awesome, so much better than xenoblade 2
I just have to say that I love how the symbolism about hope, lucky seven, and the flutes come together in this scene. Watching Noah grab the flute when told to grab lucky seven was beautiful. He had been using a weapon to defend from hopelessness when he should have been trying to overcome it. Offseers give hope to those left behind. Not much else. That's what I think Noah realized with Jorans mud puppets back at colony lambda. Upon realizing that crucial detail he figured the sword was the same. This is all just the theory I agree with the most. There's plenty of ways to interpret it.
Finally!!!
Edit my hype is immeasurable
The reveal that Mio had switched in Chapter 5 made her words so much heavier. When she said, "MY Noah." Of course there was an "aha!" moment, but then it really hit me deep. The thing is anybody who has felt love that strong can't say they wouldn't do what N did. It's easy from the outside, but no matter how much crazy stuff he did, you can't say he didn't love her. After seeing her die so many times that kind of loss would add up. Just going through it once still wrecks me after so many years. To see it over and over would be enough to drive anybody mad.
The Cloudkeep introduction was fantastic, too. Seeing Dromarch's face and finally finding Nia made me so emotional. I echo the sentiments that this game, especially chapters 5 and 6 should go down in history books and be taught in schools. Superb writing and masterful storytelling. I'm sad I missed your playthrough live since our schedules can't really line up, but I'm thankful I get to watch here
It has also been so long since I watched the Chapter 5 video that I have no idea what is going on in the Chapter 6 video lmao
1:20:42 Ascension Quest. ASCENSION QUEST.
“Oh? Chapter 5 emotionally scarred you?
*Okay but what if we did it several more times*
The whole discussion around long or short hair was fantastic. What a great bit
ahhh yes finally the roller coaster chapter
harder then choosing between pyra and mythra
Thanks for the awesome content Sarah. I’ve been awaiting your videos for this playthrough lol. Anyways, take care and stay safe.
I went with long hair for Mio for most of the game after this chapter began, but I did switch back to short hair on time for the game's finale. :)
Nia's return was so sweet, even with the bait and switch making you worry at first...at least until you remember she's a Flesh Eater and she didn't get hit in the Core Crystal. Also, does anyone feel like Nia is Mio's mom. I really feel like Nia is Mio's mom.
Spoilers for Future Redeemed, the final chapter of this game, and Sena's Sidequest below for any who may be watching this and haven't gotten to any of those. If you go further, you've been warned. Also, a warning that the part below the spoiler area will be a bit of an essay. Sorry. ^^'''

I have complicated feelings regarding Shania. I think we can all agree that her wishing destruction on the entire city and being smug about Mio about to be gone in a way that she'd be dead forever like one of the City people or Moebius (the only other two who perma-die) was entirely unwarranted and terrible.
On the other hand, she had no support system, an abusive parent, and a best friend who went about telling her to be herself in the most vague, tone-deaf way possible to the point she thought that friend now hated her. That is also just completely awful. As much as Sena was robbed in that side story since she wasn't the focus among other reasons (it should have been Ghondor's or Sena should have played a bigger role so that it was about her kinship with Shania too as well as Ghondor's. Seriously, even this chapter had Sena kneeling mournfully over Shania when she took her life the first time.), it did show a very ugly side of the City's politics.
As much as we should give Matthew, Nikol, Glimmer, and the other characters who make up the City Founders their props, I think the Noble House system was a terrible idea and was always going to lead to at least one person being on such a status-seeking high (Shania's mother) that they'd do literally anything to gain more. Heck, I even feel like House Reid losing some of said status in the aftermath of Moebius S's attack on the city was quite lenient for how terrible of a person Shania's mom was. It's a real fall for a House founded by the direct descendant of Reyn and Sharla. :(
Though it also sucks that Shania's passion was art, which was seen as a less valuable occupation in a city based in wartime to the point she felt like she HAD to be a Lost Number. She's kind of a parallel to Joran (which Lanz points out during the Sena quest). Both were artisans (Shania with drawings and Joran with dolls) who weren't meant for combat, but they were both forced into it by the systems of the City's military and the Forever War between Keves and Agnus respectively. And both committed atrocities while having a super lowly image of themselves. Both even died with that acknowledgment, even though the context is different (Joran died taking down D with him whereas Shania simply died after her Moebius Core was hit)
But with how the City People are also uploaded into Origin's memory and the worlds rebooting/becoming one again in a proper manner and even former Moebius like Joran being rebooted with it, maybe what Ghondor said at the end of Sena's quest will be true. Shania will be fine the next time around...but yeah, as much as this comes off as a 'in defense of' argument, I do also condemn the bad things Shania did...even though I still can't believe we have a Nintendo game with someone putting a gun to their own head and offing themselves. O.O
On a more trivia-related note, Shania and Ghondor remind me of a similar dynamic between two characters in Xenogears. All the way down to the friend betraying the group based on a feeling of inadequacy and being regretful of it as they died. (Then again, there's quite a few Xenogears parallels in this game...and that is not a complaint. I quite love it)
The nervousness and excitement of running up the Cloudkeep to finally see Nia...man I wish I could experience that moment again, the music elevated it to a whole different level.
I’m watching this and I keep thinking: please play Xenogears someday! So many ideas here are refinements and expansions on ideas from the original Xenogears that I would love to see how you react to their raw, primordial form.
Oh my god, I’ve been looking forward to this video for ages!
Harry McEntire REALLY knocked it out of the park here. XB3's VA is honestly really impressive
I was JUST watching your Xenoblade 2 Ch7 video of Nia's transformation, spoopy timing.
I'm gonna call it then, I'm the reason this got uploaded today.
34:32 careful what you wish for….
This was an absolutely magical stream. We the chat willingly sat in emote-only mode for 3 hours as we watched Sarah experience this incredible moment. And the viewer count never dropped below 1000 for like the entire 3 hours. Just goes to show how incredibly well they wrote this chapter 5 -> chapter 6 sequence.
If there's 2 characters I desperately need as heroes, it's mwamba and kite. Kite's ether missile staff thing looks like it'd be fun as fuck to play, and mwamba is just best boy!
Mio has 2 girlfriends now. She's catching up but still doesn't beat nia's gf count! (Sword GFs and Skype Bird GF, plus protag BF)
Have you gone through Xenogears yet? If not, XC3 took a lot of inspiration from the OG, but more amplified. I honestly think it's still the greatest Xeno game
I adore Y's flavor of smug as fuck crazy "entertain me" type villain. I call them the desarm type, after my absolute favourite inazuma eleven character!
you can’t keep destroying your mental health like this
I should have chosen long hair mio, she's stupidly pretty!
Edit: YOU CAN CHANGE IT?
yes
2:03 you’re…not Taion.
didn’t win best music award btw
Chapter 5 into 6 is the biggest emotional gut punch in the entire game but it ends SO well! Honestly the game kinda peaked here, at least to me. Not that I dislike the ending but I think it couldn't quite top what happened here.
NOBODY EXPECTS MWAMBA!
Yeah, every game has its peak, and this part is XC3’s. A lot of people were surprised by how soon the game ends after here, but I think it’s harsh to see them say it “falls off”. It’s just that the protagonists have gotten past their darkest hour and are close to having all the keys needed to defeat the villain, simple as that.
Rewatching cutscenes/replaying the game with the knowledge that this is the peak makes it easier to appreciate what comes after it. I just rewatched the final boss and ending and my god, I forgot how freakin good it was.
@@emblemblade9245 Oh for sure, I enjoyed the ending. I've got some nitpicks about the conclusion but ultimately I think they finished strong with the cast as fleshed out as they could be. I'm mostly just curious what the story DLC is going to touch on; that might help clarify some things or flesh out what they might not have been able to do in the base game.
I still don't know who the child is tbh edit: fuck I totally forgot, it was Mio's Evaluation!
Finally! I know you've been having a rough go Sarah; I'm so happy you got the next part uploaded. Your playthrough has been so fun to watch.
Imagine not playing this incredible series, thrust into success through the admiration of its developers and fans alike. Xenoblade top video games
The scene with noah dying infront of his kid made me really sad and idk why
Chapter 5: Ruined Makeup
Chapter 6: “meh hair”
I chose short as that was the Mia I fell for❤️.
I really was looking forward to reliving the 20 minutes of debate over hair length lmao
God she's so pretty!
And nia's pretty too..
This makes my day, thank you for keeping continue this series.
Chapter 6 and 7 get a lot of flack, but they're are probably my favorite chapters right under 5 and 4.
They’re a lot easier to appreciate after knowing chapter 5 is the peak. It’s easier to slow down and take in the dialogue and scenes for what they are instead of wondering what comes next.
I JUST WATCHED YOUR CPT 5 VIDEO I'M SO READY FOR THIS! GOD I love your reactions to all this stuff!
god dang, the chapter 5 cliffhanger was so wtf, glad I could see your breakdown and confusion live
1:21:53 I didn’t notice the music the first time I played it.😆 I’ve been playing Xenoblade 2 since then, so I recognized it this time.😭 I didn’t notice the Dromarch statue either!!
Whoever said “PERSONA” in chat at 38:51, you messy for that 😂
best cutscene of all time!
I’m finally playing Xenoblade 2, and I love it so much! Harry’s performance in the scene where N finds out that his Mio is gone is so perfect. This series is so good.❤ I hope the DLC is about N’s son.
Why do the long hair gang and the short hair gang have to keep on fighting? I have to find out why?
This is easily the best response to picking Mio’s hair
Just traumatized us over and over with Mio, eh writers? 😂😢
And there are people calling Noah a boring character
Well I mean he is
Awww yeah! Here we go!
Awwwww Yis!*
1:14:12 careful what you wish for….
Notification gang where you at??!
I like that Nia can't be killed as long as her Crystal is in tact.
It's kinda basic knowledge
That, and the fact that she's an amazing healer, lol. So long as she can use her power, no wound is too serious for her.
I finish this game already 6 months to go and he cant exit of my mind.
And it still dazzles me, how this could NOT win Game of the Year or at least "Best Score" at the Game Awards 2022.......HOW?
12:22 the absence of Mio’s voice really tricked you.
Here's my thought process when approaching the Cloud Keep. Mind you, I'd considered the possibility that the writers might kill off Nia the moment we find her for a while now because it would make for great storytelling, and because I felt it was too early in the game for someone to hand us the key to defeating the Big Bad.
Are any of you wearing these nice eye patches you got so that you can't be tracked by Moebius? No? Idiots.
Did you just deactivate the castle's camouflage without reactivating it again? Yes? Idiots.
Oh, hey, nice song! * starts humming along * Oh, it's Drifting Soul! How fitting. Wait! People usually die when this song plays. They'd better not kill off Nia. I mean, it would make sense from a storytelling perspective, but this is Nia. They had better not.
Suffice to say, I wasn't too surprised when Nia then got stabbed, but was hoping that they might have missed her Core Crystal, which would allow her to regenerate. I could obviously not tell if that was the case because they didn't show us, and spent the entire fight in suspense.
30:47 no he’s not. You’re wrong. Just sit their in your wrongness and be wrong.
- As much deserved as they are, N's and Shania's meltdowns are...well, painful to watch in some way. But I guess that's a testament to their actual depths not just as villains, but as characters in general.
(On that note, when N is saying "My feelings haven't changed. They're the same as they've always been!"...that is the PERFECT broken face.)
- There are two ways Noah's Interlink form can use Origin Blade - either Interlink during Unlimited Sword mode, or use the Talent Art when his heat gauge is on the final bar.
- Once you've seen how Z strong-armed N into slaughtering his own descendants to revive M, it's even clearer why he snapped after M died to the Homecoming - he crossed the line for her sake, so without her, he has nothing left.
- 1:07:40 I think your past self forgot about the fact that Kevesi and Agnians get reborn.
- Both Joran and Dirk are like Mumkhar in some way. Joran envied that he couldn't be as capable as his friends, just as Mumkhar did Dunban. Dirk, meanwhile, embodies his heightened savagery as Metal Face. So in other words: Dirk is the negative side of Mumkhar, and Joran is his obscured positive side.
- Couldn't past-you guess what kind of "collectibles" would stare back at Dirk...?
- Heh, it's fun to see that Nia hasn't changed at all.
(Also, good thing Dirk didn't know how Alrest Blades work.)
Thank you TH-cam for the lack of notif for this. Really cool.
YAS I've been looking forward to this
1:23:20 OMG IT IS DROMARCH I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE!
I had to take a break when the game became playable after this boss fight cause I was so emotionally destroyed from chapter 5 lol
53:55 "too much change"
Oh so I see you're going with the Endless Now, then.
I kid i kid! But seriously I've been waiting to see this episode of your playthrough for months now, thanks for uploading it! Xenoblade Chronicles 3 truly is in a class of its own.
1:08:00 Whether Miyabi died and got reborn and aged up (just not all the way to tenth term as her role was to control the tenth termers), or somehow survived, is something of some debate among fans. I'd say that Y referring to awakening her, and a bit of dialog during a quest with Mwamba (where the party wonders why Miyabi got her memories back but Mwamba didn't), implies she was indeed reborn, which would mean Mio's words about her still being alive were perhaps misleading.
