Maybe next game we'll find out what a "Xenoblade" is / chasekip Games covered in this video: Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna - The Golden Country
Important and funny note: Nia has the power to give immediate terminal cancer to every living being and she used it to give Malos super cancer at one point. Malos did not care and survived anyway.
@@michaelepica3564 3 of the city founders are descended from Rex, (Matthew, Glimmer, Na'el) which means almost half of the city is of his lineage. That's not a family tree, it's a family forrest!
@@goatslayer3160 I was going to question that, until I remembered Mio is heavily implied to be Nia's daughter (read: all but stated outright), so that tracks.
I have absolutely no prior context to what Xenoblade was about before this video, could I please get the cliff notes on the situation between Rex & Nia?
@@redshyguynumber5567 Massive spoilers here but yeah. Two of his kids are playable characters, as is his great great grandson, who I MUST remind everybody is genetically at least 1/16th catboy.
@@TheBandoBandito Can't wait for him to reference how badly his old script aged 😅 He's probably also gonna include Future Redeemed and oh boy am I looking forward to seeing him describe Adult Rex
I still find it hilarious how every single xenoblade protagonist dies at some point Shulk: Dead before game starts and dies again near the end Rex: Dies at the beginning Noah: Dies literally hundreds of f**king times before the game even starts
@@sdtrawickif I rememebr, Cross and other humans are in coma, so dead kinda? but their corpes were destroyed but their fake body continued living, so we dont even know what is the mortality status
Finally!! After about 3 years you finally covered this game! Your video on the first game got me into the series as a whole, so this is the first time I am familiar with the game you cover before the video
15:08 For anyone who doesn’t know the context to this scene and why the note pops up, I’ll explain. Nia says how Rex show d her she doesn’t need to hide her true self and confesses her love to Rex. Rex says “Nia, I love you too” and after a gasp from Nia, continues with “I love you, and all you guys” in a sense friendzoning our beloved cat girl. However, thanks to the New Game+ title screens where Rex, the two aegis girls, and Nia get to hold hands, and the ending of the third game showing a photo revealing that adult Rex had a child with all 3 girls, it is known that Rex really did love “all you guys.”
@@JackMcGrail-mp3hcIt’s more likely that Nia is also with Pyra and Mythra because of of few cutscenes like where Nia says that Mythra has a “nice bod” and one of the title screens where Nia pushes Rex out from holding hands with Pyra and Mythra just for Nia to hold hands with them. I mean, Vandham’s blade IS nonbinary and two other blade are lesbian and nonbinary soooo
@cptain, go away with your woke agenda. It's confirmed by creators rex had children with all 3 and he married all of them and there is not even single mention about your lesbians it's your woke imagination and typical lies.
I am amazed at how you were able to manage to explain most of the core details without falling into the trap of explaining the "raison d'etre" for each character i.e. Jin wanting an answer, Almathus for revenge etc. As well as keeping it to your comedic story telling style. Great work! Can't wait how you will do Xenoblade 3 (apart from the pain of actually animating it XD).
23:25 from the perspective of character arcs this is the only satisfying way to end this story. Rex needed to learn that he couldn't do everything alone and sometimes he needs to let others handle things while pyra/mythras arc is about overcoming despair and learning to be ok with being alive so they need to survive the story.
That description of how to revive Rex was actually less weird than in the actual game, where all Pyra says is literally "now place your hand on my chest." Now there's only 1 more video to complete the trilogy, and it's a doozy! (Especially Future Redeemed, starring Rex, Rex's daughter, Rex's great-great-grandchildren, Rex's sibling-in-law, Rex's father-in-law's reincarnation, and Rex's father-in-law's reincarnation's son, with Rex's son-in-law also playing a major role.) I can't wait for it to come out in another 3 years!
@@etaquince5220 The tone might not be serious, but everything in the comment not pertaining to the future is accurate as far as I can tell. Some of it is debatable, but the interpretations used are not hard to come to.
@@angeldude101 So we have Rex, Glimmer (Rex's Daughter), Mathew and Na'el (Rex's Great-Great Grandchildren), A/Alvis (Rex's Sibling-in-law), Shulk (Reincarnation of Klaus, the architect and Pyra/Mythra's 'father' making him Rex's Father-in-law), Nicol (Rex's Father-in-law's reincarnations son), and Noah (his son-in-law also playing a major part).
I mean, he did mention that he was trying to synthesize a game series with about 15 hours of cutscenes into a 24 min. video. Loooots of stuff gonna be lost in the transition I'm afraid.
Every time you make a Xenoblade Chronicles video I have to watch it like four times just to get a basic understanding of what's going on this game is way more complex than has any need to be
@@abombernation3254 I've only played part of the first one. I never actually finished it but I'm sure if I understood all of Golden Sun and the tails of games I would understand this I just need all the contexts. It's really hard to do a summary video on a complex jrpg
Phenomenal. Been waiting for this video. Your video on Xeno 1 is superb and knew this one was going to be just as good. Hopefully you’ll be able to do a Xeno 3 someday
And Rex be like: And kids, that is how I met your 3 mothers..... XD Edit: Can you make a story about Rockman/Megaman series? I think that one is easy XD
oh boy i sure do hope it doesnt take 3 years to make Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Explained! (side note; take your time, these videos are really god damn good)
The second games story is so underrated. The first 4 chapters are off putting to alot of people because of the anime elements and confusing battle system, but around chapter 5 the games story starts to ramp up. The gameplay also gets better as you get more blades and understand the combat system better.
It doesn't fit anywhere. You could maybe stretch it and say it happen before Zanza activate the Conduit but even that's a stretch. It's pretty much it's own thing and at this point I think Nintendo is unable to make it work on Switch's inferior hardware (yes even compare to Wii U)
A lot of xenoblade x item are referenced to xenoblade 1. My theory was that Mira is a fusion of few planete new future redeemed post credit aionios and new worlds considering the old warth concept art. But I'm not so sure maybe it's just referenced. Not saying X is forgotten with all the references in just art names but maybe the plot will get heavy redcon to fit a bigger canon so x wii u would be no more canon.
man i first played xenoblade 1 after watching a bit of your xc1 video because i loved the idea of living on the bionis and mechonis and after that i played xenoblade 2 and i loved it and it is my favorite video game ever to this day. So happy to finally see you make a video of this game.
Your video of the first game got me interested in the series and I liked the idea of the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 story ever since the Pythra dlc in Smash Bros, but never brought myself to buy the game or watch all the cutscenes on RU-vid. Thank you for the summary. Really cool. Also I would like to request a summary of the Mortal Kombat series (original timeline, second timeline, and MK1)(also MK11 and MK1 are the only games where arcade tower endings are canon; even the crossovers)
YES I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! And it hits JUST when I get back into xenoblade as well! I know this game has its issues but it will always have such a special place in my heart for so many reasons, i love it so much!
i have been waiting for this if you have never binge played the whole game start to finish in one sitting what xenoblade fan are you. great video and animation another banger
Really love your content and i just realised you did all of pokémon except scarlet and violet i want to see arvens trauma without some weird new glich in-between
