I really loved the battle system at the time. It was so different from the usual turn based. I mean it's still turn based but the combo-attacks were super fun. I remember really enjoying the back to back (slightly annoying) battles at the castle.
Citan's voice is cracked up in US version. In US version, when using Hoten (one of the DB), Citan shouts like "Haar, SE~!" But in JP version, he shouts actually like "Haa, SHOo~!" (or "shuu!").
wow, this game looks like the grandfather of the new project X zone for the 3DS, really fucking awesome the game, even if this is a RPG, the sprites beating the shit out of the enemies are really something badass
Ik this is nine years late, but there's a reason for that. They were made by the same devs. Even though xenogears was made by square, the staff quit after it and formed a new studio, monolithsoft, that went on to make project x zone, among other things
man when i first witnessed Citan's new epic moves i couldn't stop myself gawking, and it was around the time we gave the element girls their final beating, but Citan's transformation (and sound effects) in it all was simply hilarious
You thought you was in beast mode for half the game, but once they released the limiters and you started doing those godly attacks, you knew shit got real.
(reply to the author) Citan's best sword is Mumyo Sword gotten from defeating Dragon in Duneman Isle (west of Bart's Lair) during end of Disc 2. You can also get Bart's best whip there. But the Dragon has to be fought ON FOOT! Make sure one of your party members has the Trader Card equipped.
Sigh, and SQUARE couldn't even join in to have made Project X Zone. I wanted to play as Fei Fong Wong. then again I would lOVE to see Kos-Mos & Fei Kicking Ass together.
OMG Citan is the most epic character in this game he pawn0r so much azz i mean his IQ rate is unhuman and his abily to fight with a sheath sword is just amazing no other charatcer in the game can stop him
Yeah, only Xenogear, SMT and Mother have managed to get me engaged so much in a the plot. Still have to try Xenosaga, I've high hopes it will be as amazing as Xgears
@@seth7726 xsaga 1 was horrible, my uncle and i are doing a full on xeno run, currently in xsaga 2 and already way more impressed with what the game has to offer
I remember how Citan was already the most powerful character already on the ground (gear was a different matter but his first one was still good.) by a huge margin. Amongst the highest HP Top notch damage Second fastest character in the game. Amazing heal spell and other utility ether. Cool sprite. My Citan solo'd Id gameplay wise, I'm still not sure he was supposed to do that. And THEN, after all of that, he gets a sword. And uses Iaido. And second gear is amazing. It's like almost unfair. lol At least it served a purpose story wise too though.
I really didn't care for the weapon. The moves were too long and every time he strikes, he put it back in and took it back out. But RENKEN, that move saved me a lit if times! Especially battling ID. Lol
I think the biggest highlights of the gameplay to me was when I learned all of Fei's moves and when Citan got his sword. I was too geeked. I wish SquareEnix would get back with the creator, do a remake and let him finish it the way he wanted to. I think the second disc would have been much longer and enjoyable. Still, it's on the top 5 favorite games of all time. A coin toss between this and Chrono Trigger.
@DW1014 actually they lost a lot of fundings (not bringing good titles over, cough cough) and so Namdai had to rush and finish Xenosaga Ep 3, which was to fill into several games apparantly.
RENKEN is easily my favorite of all. He just looks perfect. I've ALWAYS wondered if the ghost of Citan during the deathblow is because he moves too fast or able to design your spirit outside the body.
Thanks for posting this. Great playing too on your part. I love Fei above every character, I also love Citan, Bart, and Billy. I dont really care for anyone else.
always come back here o rplay the game and i must say its one of th ebest soundtracks but even the sound effects and bass hits are so saitsfying especially on the combos.
disc 1 was amazing in everything. disc 2 had very little development and wrap up. it was rushed because they had to finish the game to move onto a FF game so they just did anything. didnt you notice the huge drop in storytelling in disc 2?
To anyone who wants to play this game again: * Go to Google and type in 'Download Ps1' games. There's a website called 'Emuparadise' and you can download many great PS1 games from there like Final Fantasy 7, Silent Hill 1, Dino Crisis, Xenogears! * Download a PS1 Emulator. * If you have a PS3 controller you can use it as a controller! Go to windows control panel --> Game Devices --> from there you can set-up your PS3 controller to certain buttons on screen.. then make the emulator match it!
Go to where the light house is (ya know, it's on an island near babel and the orphanage) and go in there. You'll be taken to the underground city of Zeboim. explore it thoroughly and eventually a scene will play and she'll be older.
Yaimeki is a dark element DB and the one before it was his light element DB. I agree with you about Yaimeki stealing an enemy's life force, it's just unfortunate Fei doesn't actually recover any health from it lol.
U sure about that @gmoneygalaxy? Its part of the same time line. Abel was in xenosaga and xenogears. Hes abel originally and reincarnates into fei after a few lifetimes.
Yeah, but IMO, Citan with his sword is just as powerful, except he doesn't have the Light and Dark DBs that Fei has. Even so, Citan is a valuable asset all around in the game.
@XXXXNanoXXXxxx What I meant was: Wild Arms 2 is my favorite game from PS1 with an excelent storyline, yet it´s not so complex as Xenogears! Both are my favorite games from that console. Sorry my english is not very good.
I had a small yellow notebook and I wrote all the combos. When I used to play I pulled out my notebook and mixed and matched. I still have the notebook 💔
Move removed? Are u talking about big bang? Thats a chi attack. Un less you mean the attack with the two rocks grinding together which may be one of the girls. Bart had a few elemental deathblows. Did anyone max out citans deathblows before getting his sword?
While I love Xenogears, Suikoden 2 is a game I would consider to have a grander scale, and thus be 'more epic' -- whether that makes it a better game or not is debatable as I enjoy each title for different reasons. That said, I prefer Grandia to both of the titles in question. It's opinion, no more or less.
@heavengalvez Well you can always play it anytime you want you know? Just download a PS1 Emulator with few pluging and the Xenogear Rom and there you go you can play it on your PC for free...
Can we just talk about how freaking OP Citan is throughout the whole game?
@@XiloChannel ok...
The can point and obliterate something..
overpowered stats on foot. average gear
That's why he's the BEST and MVP of the entire story!!
Daily reminder that try as you may, you will never be as cool as Citan Uzuki.
Lyon Cobalt or as douchebaggy as him.
Chuuni Chewer citan is too cool
I'll never forget those sound effect when Fei start smackin' the enemies for good. its so original! lol
AntaresOmega LOL ME TOO. I used to yell with him SOYY HAAAA SOY!!!
Citans "Renken" was always my favorite deathblow. Just an ass beating and a half
Renken (@3:35) the coolest non-elemental deathblow in the game. Straight up can o' woopass.
Str8 Factz
Its funny how all of Citan's nonsword 7 AP Deathblows involves swordlike objects,
when he swore to never use a sword again ^^
Fei and Citan's deathblows are some eyecandy, they are
I really loved the battle system at the time. It was so different from the usual turn based. I mean it's still turn based but the combo-attacks were super fun. I remember really enjoying the back to back (slightly annoying) battles at the castle.
only frustrating thing about the deathblows is trying to get em, but it is soooo worth it
the battle system very unique and good
This and Nier Automata are the pinical of story telling in this art form.
Hagan was always a classic! Always wished I could pull that off in real life, too badass!
Can we be real for a sec... Citan just put pointed at the guy and a huge Fire Blade stabbed that fucker 4:36
Holy crap, those frogs got O-W-N-E-D!
this game needs a remake
YEAH!!!
Gus Guiller Calvo YES!!!!
Gus Guiller Calvo maybe in a couple years after they finish FF7. The only game they ever cared about.
Xenogears and Valkyrie Profile need a remake.
Most def
Something about the magic effects of Xenogears always reminded me of Final Fantasy Tactics. Wonder if it used the same graphics engine or something.
Citan's voice is cracked up in US version.
In US version, when using Hoten (one of the DB), Citan shouts like "Haar, SE~!" But in JP version, he shouts actually like "Haa, SHOo~!" (or "shuu!").

It seems that Miang, Krelian, Vanderkaum, Shakhan and Stone don't like this video.
man when i first witnessed Citan's new epic moves i couldn't stop myself gawking, and it was around the time we gave the element girls their final beating, but Citan's transformation (and sound effects) in it all was simply hilarious
7:28 crystal water looks so awesome
You thought you was in beast mode for half the game, but once they released the limiters and you started doing those godly attacks, you knew shit got real.
I miss the good old days of gaming..... really miss this.
Fukei is the best. I can watch that all freaking day.
Renken Hell Yeah! i love that move!
Its Citan moving at lightning speed
holy fuck the MEMORIES R POURING IN
(reply to the author)
Citan's best sword is Mumyo Sword gotten from defeating Dragon in Duneman Isle (west of Bart's Lair) during end of Disc 2. You can also get Bart's best whip there. But the Dragon has to be fought ON FOOT! Make sure one of your party members has the Trader Card equipped.
Renken is the best Deathblow.
You're not ready to talk about it!
Yes.
4:03 the most funniest move i ever remember playing this game LoL
Aq Zing I wish I could inflict pain by pointing at people
Psychedelic Zuki think he meant the move at 4:00.
this game is Remarkable and worth it if your will to give the game a chance.
my 2 best characters in the game, classic combos
COOL! That's all I can say, I miss this game so much.. and also tales of destiny 2
weird if I like Citans final deathblows without the sword
Not at all dude
4:16
Fei strait up knocks the fuck out loooooool
Sigh, and SQUARE couldn't even join in to have made Project X Zone. I wanted to play as Fei Fong Wong. then again I would lOVE to see Kos-Mos & Fei Kicking Ass together.
OMG Citan is the most epic character in this game he pawn0r so much azz i mean his IQ rate is unhuman and his abily to fight with a sheath sword is just amazing no other charatcer in the game can stop him
sigh they dont make games like these lately
Alastor Nightheart No they don't :( masterpieces
Xenoblade
llicaldo I loved it, but nothing will be marvellous as xenogears' plot.
Yeah, only Xenogear, SMT and Mother have managed to get me engaged so much in a the plot. Still have to try Xenosaga, I've high hopes it will be as amazing as Xgears
@@seth7726 xsaga 1 was horrible, my uncle and i are doing a full on xeno run, currently in xsaga 2 and already way more impressed with what the game has to offer
One of the best console games rpgs ever made,but torment and baldur's gate 2 say hi for the best rpg.
Citan with his katana is THE SHIT!
I remember how Citan was already the most powerful character already on the ground (gear was a different matter but his first one was still good.) by a huge margin.
Amongst the highest HP
Top notch damage
Second fastest character in the game.
Amazing heal spell and other utility ether.
Cool sprite.

loved playing this game back in the old days, same with legend of dragoon.
Citan:
High HP
High Speed
High Damage
Support Arcane (Useful with Renki)
I think the biggest highlights of the gameplay to me was when I learned all of Fei's moves and when Citan got his sword. I was too geeked. I wish SquareEnix would get back with the creator, do a remake and let him finish it the way he wanted to. I think the second disc would have been much longer and enjoyable.

Brings back some great memories, Thx for the post!
Along with Wild Arms 2, this the best and hardest and with the most complex story RPG of PS1!
LOL Fei was so bored that he sleeped in 4:17
citan was so op in this game lol but i loved this game
i miss this game
@DW1014 actually they lost a lot of fundings (not bringing good titles over, cough cough) and so Namdai had to rush and finish Xenosaga Ep 3, which was to fill into several games apparantly.

The intro music, I can whistle the entire song, i know it by heart but I forgot where the song is from and its killing me!
All the information you want is here, check the video description in th-cam.com/video/BmvEQb0aNmg/w-d-xo.html
Artificialraven Thank you so much!
always come back here o rplay the game and i must say its one of th ebest soundtracks but even the sound effects and bass hits are so saitsfying especially on the combos.
I would play this game just for Citan lol
i remember when i first play this game. im on level 82 and my mission is free nissan from aveh.. and my only deathblow on fei is senretsu. hahaha
BLITZ i cant believe that even possible.
Lmao, I didn't know too that I should have tried new combinations for learning the deathblows
I love Renken!
Citan is like a badass samurai John Lennon.
Jason Millington XD
they have a mix of anime, cg and ingame cutscenes.
disc 1 was amazing in everything.
disc 2 had very little development and wrap up. it was rushed because they had to finish the game to move onto a FF game so they just did anything.
didnt you notice the huge drop in storytelling in disc 2?
yes if the game had been completed it would have been atleast 4 disks and more music tracks. They started work on FF8.
To anyone who wants to play this game again:

back in the day this was perfect
Go to where the light house is (ya know, it's on an island near babel and the orphanage) and go in there. You'll be taken to the underground city of Zeboim. explore it thoroughly and eventually a scene will play and she'll be older.
2:23 Kokei SFX Is CRAZY!!
yeah that attack, it looks like something Heihachi or Kazuya in Tekken 2 would pull off
Yaimeki is a dark element DB and the one before it was his light element DB. I agree with you about Yaimeki stealing an enemy's life force, it's just unfortunate Fei doesn't actually recover any health from it lol.
Citan, the MVP of Xenogears!!!!
@GuitarJester89 Nah, they only used English dubs for the cutscenes. The fighting yells are their Japanese voice actors.
Goddamn i miss this game! GOAT
U sure about that @gmoneygalaxy? Its part of the same time line. Abel was in xenosaga and xenogears. Hes abel originally and reincarnates into fei after a few lifetimes.
the game is gorgous and the graphics are fantastic, it's awesome to play it on psp
Yeah, but IMO, Citan with his sword is just as powerful, except he doesn't have the Light and Dark DBs that Fei has. Even so, Citan is a valuable asset all around in the game.
can you imagine if they remade this game, omg i would be in heaven. when this game came out, i lost a few months of my life to it.
Fukei = Vegeta's Energy Ball rage + Big Bang attack xD
@XXXXNanoXXXxxx What I meant was: Wild Arms 2 is my favorite game from PS1 with an excelent storyline, yet it´s not so complex as Xenogears! Both are my favorite games from that console. Sorry my english is not very good.
Citan was a fucking badass of all characters
Been awhile since I played this, the sprites in combat totally look like Final Fantasy Tactics.
I had a small yellow notebook and I wrote all the combos. When I used to play I pulled out my notebook and mixed and matched. I still have the notebook 💔
That rare earth move looks like Agrias’ lightning blade.
Move removed? Are u talking about big bang? Thats a chi attack. Un less you mean the attack with the two rocks grinding together which may be one of the girls. Bart had a few elemental deathblows. Did anyone max out citans deathblows before getting his sword?
Just realized Weltall II (System ID/Hyper Mode) Goten X has similar animation to Fei's Kokei Deathblow.
Hoten and Suikei are the coolest looking ones out of all of them
CITANNNN OH GOD OH GODDDD IKUUUUUUUUU
Yay for 1:23. Fukei is my favorite Fei move.
Citan's poking attack always puzzles me
@epiphysis heh kokei was my fave too. short and sweet
THIS GAME IS FCKING AWESOME AND THE ROBOTS
Man I never got to play this. It was never released in Australia. No way I could play it now.
BuRnTmAsH or in Europ and yes you can. Just get an american Ps3 or emulate it on your computer or psp.
Yamikei is the best...
I love the sword sounds! Reminds me of rurouni kenshin
my favorite rpg very underrated.
While I love Xenogears, Suikoden 2 is a game I would consider to have a grander scale, and thus be 'more epic' -- whether that makes it a better game or not is debatable as I enjoy each title for different reasons. That said, I prefer Grandia to both of the titles in question. It's opinion, no more or less.
flarpman2233 all 3 are top 10 rpg games
i cant believe my bro traded this game for a scratched up ff7
@FreakNasty0814 If you have PS3 or PSP, you can get it from PSN soon next year.
2:20
Kokei is my favorite attack
4:16 fei is too tired to end this video, thats why he sleeping :D
hey man do u know if u can still keep playing after Deus? or u need to keep a save before going on him?
Alex Did you find the answer after 7 years? Hahah
Citan with sword is Great but his animations take too long after he acquires the sword
@heavengalvez Well you can always play it anytime you want you know?
Just download a PS1 Emulator with few pluging and the Xenogear Rom and there you go you can play it on your PC for free...
What's weird is that the battle grunts actually differ from each other in ENG/JP
dafuq, i didn't know that citan use a sword
um...ever heard Suikoden? then again our opinion may differ..
