But when he told Fiora that it was amazing, he also demonstrated how he matured and formed a will of his own. It's crazy how many subtle storytelling details are placed everywhere.
Melia was a half-Homs for this exact reason: so that when Zanza returned, she wouldn't be turned into a Telethia and could keep the High Entia race alive. They always knew about that risk, and that's why they had the royal family breed with Homs.
as far as I'm aware, the cigar was supposed to have greater cinematic impact, because from what I've heard the scene was originally supposed to show shulk bleeding as dickson walks up and throws his cigar into the pool of blood
It's not much of a love triangle, considering Melia never really expresses her feelings to anyone. Sharla kind of eggs it on, but it's really underplayed. Part of Melia's journey is having to reconcile with the fact that Shulk simply doesn't reciprocate those feelings. It's hard on her, but she doesn't let anyone in on it. It's not like an average love triangle, where two people are fighting over the third who can't seem to make up their mind. It's played much more realistically and focuses on Melia individually.
It seemed like she was projecting her dislike of other unrelated stories onto this one as soon as she realized Melia likes Shulk, rather than taking it as it's presented in the actual game
Thank you so much for sharing this playthrough with us. Being vulnerable on the internet is never easy, but it shows how much you truly care for these characters. Also, I knew barely anything about this game before watching this series, only tid-bits from Shulk's stuff in Smash Bros, as well as Reyn memes. These videos have made me want to play this series for myself now, so thanks for that as well!
Tbh... he would, actually, with how mysterious, whimsical and close to nature they are. Or he'd be a blade. I have multiple xenoblade/sonic crossover AUs... the brainrot be like that.
Xenoblade is a phenomenal series, glad to see someone get into the series. Are you gonna do Future Connected before heading to Xenoblade 2? Nice shirt btw!
Coming back and watching your xenoblade video series reminds me once again how GOOD this story is . Love your videos V, reliving your reactions is amazing! (fucking Dickson, maaan )
Like your genuine and emotional reaction to this, it's great to see whenever a stroy can move a person in such a way. Love Xenoblade for this, the story is one of the best I've ever experienced.
A Xenoblade style game starring the Sonic cast would be pretty good, actually - really give everyone time to shine through battle chatter, and have a story that really says something. If only...
I've been SAYING. Tbh Sonic Frontiers does have a good few similarities already ! Like the "side-stories" ( small heart-to-hearts ), the deeper plot, more rpg elements, open-zone level design... I even thought the general HUD looked a little bit similar ! I hope they keep going in that direction.
Shulk: I will get my revenge against the robots that KILLED my girlfriend...then turned her into my robot girlfriend...GOD I LOVE HAVING A ROBOT GIRLFRIEND...oh, what was I saying...oh yeah, LET'S FELL A GOD!!!!
@@MaxHP35 oh no, did she ?? that sucks. i'd've liked to still have the vods around... i mean it's pretty different from XC1 for sure, but... I dunno, I thought it was worth it, even just for the last few chapters. the lore, too.
She never should have played 2, just jump straight to XC3, that's what I tell everyone that wants to get into the series. The Xenoblade series is just so much better pretending 2 never existed.
No no it’s not disappointing you don’t need 2 to understand Xeno 1 one was perfectly fine by itself 2 is literally a BIG FAT A@@ UNIVERSE RETCON You don’t think so? ok Let’s look at the clear as day in your face examples Example RETCON 1 the ring Xeno 1 ending has a alienish yellow ring around the space station Yet Xeno 2 looks like a F orbital future elevator GUNDAM STYLE IN SPACE HOW DO YOU F THAT UP HMM? 🤨 Example RETCON 2 The GOD EGO Xeno 1 NO I WANT TO BE A GOD for selfish reasons Xeno 2 I want to help humanity survive WHAAA WTF 😒 Example RETCON 3 War chaos Xeno 1 there was no war going on around the space station Everything klaus did was done by his own choice Xeno 2 there is a War going on and klaus was forced to do the experiment Example RETCON 4 the people Xeno 1 klaus had assistance all around him Xeno 2 klaus and her are the only ones when he made that speech in the room that had no windows?

@@Rybread52 2 and 3 were confirmed to be planned around the same time but 1 very likely wasn't. It was gonna be its own thing originally and was only retroactively tied into the Xeno-series late into development and was then of course worked into the plan for the rest of this particular trilogy.
You called Dickson Dennis Hopper so many times I temporarily forget his name
So now that we learned that Shulk was never alive and was basically a walking corpse, gives a whole new meaning to why he has no sense of taste.
But when he told Fiora that it was amazing, he also demonstrated how he matured and formed a will of his own. It's crazy how many subtle storytelling details are placed everywhere.
"It can't Rain all the time but it does Reyn all the time" -Eric Draven, probably
Melia was a half-Homs for this exact reason: so that when Zanza returned, she wouldn't be turned into a Telethia and could keep the High Entia race alive. They always knew about that risk, and that's why they had the royal family breed with Homs.
So why didn’t they encourage all the High Entia to couple with Homs? That would’ve saved the entire race and deprived Zanza of soldiers
45:09 -Reyn and Dunban willing to just say fuck it and fight God for thier friend is absolutely amazing

Man I feel so bad for melia especially in Xenoblade 3.
“Why is the music so MUSIC?”
An eternal question when it comes to Xenoblade music
Man, I love so much how the whole revenge story gets turned around completely in this game
Experiencing the events of Mechonis Core is a once in a life time and I wish I could do it all over again

Its more of an unrequited love than a love triangle when it comes to Melia.
Dickson: "I don't have to explain anything!"
(1 minute later)
Dickson: "stop interrupting me, I've got more explaining to do"
if sonic was in xenoblade chronicles he would be a nopon

Comment for Sonic. Do it for him.
im always happy to see someone experiment my favorite game of all time. and you really feeling it
Comment for Sonic? I mean Shulk and Reyn are basically Sonic and Knuckles. They even fight machines! And gems are just chaos emeralds.
guys, i just realize that she's really like shulk

I only wish Dennis Hopper (actual) could have lived to see these videos.
let's gooooooo!! can't wait to watch!
Man, you coming to terms with the story makes me really want to hug you haha. Please be okay :D
Imagine if this game is forever stuck inside the world of nintendo WII
It's the passage of 480p!

Damn! Your dog knew whats up, good boi!
So amazing
Can’t wait for you to play 2, Torna and 3
2 hell no but torna and 3 yes indeed
For Sonic
perfection
Sucks to be a brother in this game

Man, ending soon. Next is XC2?
I wouldn't count on it. She basically hated it. Deleted all of her VODs of it for some reason.
@@MaxHP35 oh no, did she ?? that sucks. i'd've liked to still have the vods around...

@@halosaft , that's not right. In XC3 the best enemies, second best battle system and XC3 mostly doing references to XC2.
@@x149te Yeah, just references, you don't need to play 2 at all to get XC3. Basically just easter eggs if you did play XC2.
🌟 Promo-SM.
I love the game but it's a little bit disappointing that you can't understand the story until you play Xenoblade 2 to the end.
No no it’s not disappointing you don’t need 2 to understand Xeno 1 one was perfectly fine by itself
2 is literally a BIG FAT A@@ UNIVERSE RETCON
You don’t think so? ok
Let’s look at the clear as day in your face examples
Example RETCON 1 the ring
Xeno 1 ending has a alienish yellow ring around the space station Yet Xeno 2 looks like a F orbital future elevator GUNDAM STYLE IN SPACE HOW DO YOU F THAT UP HMM? 🤨
Example RETCON 2 The GOD EGO
Xeno 1 NO I WANT TO BE A GOD for selfish reasons
Xeno 2 I want to help humanity survive WHAAA WTF 😒
Example RETCON 3 War chaos
Xeno 1 there was no war going on around the space station
Everything klaus did was done by his own choice
Xeno 2 there is a War going on and klaus was forced to do the experiment
Example RETCON 4 the people
Xeno 1 klaus had assistance all around him
Xeno 2 klaus and her are the only ones when he made that speech in the room that had no windows? THE FUUUUU MONOTITH SOFT HOW DID YOU F THAT UP 😳🤨
Sorry Xenoblade 2 really is a MASSIVE Dead ON RETCON on inconsistencies like come now you didn’t think I wasn’t going to notice this MASSIVE CHANGES to the point Klaus in Xenoblade 1 and klaus in Xenoblade 2 seem like two different timelines instead of the same individual
Ugh sorry but I got done with Xenoblade 2 the other day as much as I love the space station segment I really didn’t like most of the game at all and don’t even get me started on that slow gameplay and gotcha systems AND IN YOUR FACE CONSTANT FAN SERVICE
IS THIS REALLY SUPPOSED TO BE A F XENO GAME 🤨
I thought it was called XENO 👽 F BLADE NOT BLADE BOOOOOOOOBS 😑
