I have done nothing but play Xenoblade for the past two days
Mainly focused on the story, did a couple of sidequests here and there
Gotcha, thanks
my final level was ||52||
Wish you spoiler tagged the level ngl
sorry
It's fine
I've mostly taken today off from xenoblading
Played it for like 13 hours in like a 24 hour span lmao
So, uh, I just beat the DLC just a bit ago and.. ||the mad lad did it. He made a solid canon connection to Xenosaga and actually made X canon to the main series. So happy we got that. As well as seeing Earth from before Klaus' experiment. That was crazy. And I never in a million years thought that we'd hear "Saviorite" ever again. And the worlds properly merging at the end... so happy we got resolution to the ending of base game. Though, I'm still a bit confused on why Alvis acted the way he did. Like, so the game said he became this way due to the Logos and Pneuma cores being gone. So he should've had that attitude at the end of 1 right? But then we see that the Logos and Pneuma cores are actually intact and reside within N's Sword of the End and Matthew's Ouroboros Knuckles respectively. So why is he still a "heartless machine"? What caused him to come to the conclusion he did? He has all the knowledge of the past yet Na'el didn't and got her mind changed after seeing what happened to Earth. And what happened to Shulk, Rex, and A? Did they die? Did they time travel to Xenoblade X2? And what was that light heading towards the planet? And what on earth are the FogBeasts!? We still don't know where they come from. But, whatever, I'm hyped for Xenoblade 4! I can't wait to see where the series goes from here.||
Started Chapter 4 today
||wowww that opening cutscene goes so hard, the first time we've seen all three xenoblade protags in one place (N may be bending some rules but whatever)||
i beat was good
||the biggest lore dump we got so far that tied the main trilogy with X and even Saga and it was from a radio in the background of the scene it was in||
I have to get the dlc music on my phone PRONTO
I’ve been waiting for the official soundtrack release before putting any XC3 on my phone
Needless to say I’ve been waiting a long time lol
I can confirm it doesn't cut off everywhere in Future Redeemed. In special cases they deactivate it, which we all know didn't work well in the main game
Why did they make rex so good
beyblade beyblade let it rip
It’s doesn’t help that shulk and nikol suck at their jobs as well
Literally just spam double spinning edge until rex gets hit once then get revived and repeat
I'm confused how do I make my Rex busted
Upgrade everything that has crit in it
unlock art cancelling and boost crit rate + crit damage
you may die a few times along the way, but such is life
ah I see
Other than unlocking everyone's arts cancelling I've been dumping my points into matthew
Yeah make sure your healers revive quickly because rex dies whenever an enemy looks at him
Matthew and Rex are both great unga bunga characters
Is Double Spinning Edge + Rolling Smash the meta combo
Cross blaze gives higher crit when paired with double spinning edge
Random spoiler??? thing ||I've noticed that whenever you defeat enemies in Future Redeemed the animation of them dying is them bursting into particles that look very similar to fogbeasts||
Seems plot relevant maybe
I'm in early chapter 4 though so they haven't said anything about that yet if it is relevant
Ur obviously not feeding your Nikol because I can’t get him to share aggro with his dad LOL
Me: I wanna play as Shulk because I love him
Nikol: 
Loved this whole DLC
And man
I don't wanna wait 5 years for the next entry
If we ever get anything
Rex kept dying on me all the time 😅
Just beat Future redeemed, and i share Thundertron's sentiment with how many questions i have
Questions aren't ending with this
Way too much open
||Especially with X tie in||
Can someone maybe spoil X's ending here?
(literall ending spoilers) ||like are Rex Shulk and A part of the new trinity proccesser now?||
Could be
gonna have to wait for luxin's video to fully comprehend this it's wild
Me instead right now: ||Who is whose predeccessor in Xeno 3. My guesses: Matthew: Noah, Na'el: Mio, Linka: Sena, Panacea: Lanz, Nikol: Taion, Glimmer: Eunie||
Also (ending spoilers): ||Alvis smh allseeing||
I am questioning one thing
||Did Klaus activate the Conduit knowing of the Alien Invasion?||
Okay yeah I understand the beyblade memes now
Nintendo when someone asks to discount their games:
oh man it's getting real (chapter 4 spoilers, maybe late)
I just finished watching the cutscenes. And I'm only going to say one thing: ||There is no rule #5 of the Salvager's Code :( ||
||Yes, I tried looking this up after to see if someone's found it. Nope||
||I personally think Matthew and Na'el are just the city versions of Cycle Noah and Mio. In other words, I don't think there's any connections to Noah and Mio, other than they are the offspring of N and M. Cycle Noah and Mio are elsewhere in the story, and since none of the city folk are connected to the Cycle, then they just die off and leave offspring of their own. So it leads to the city folk that main-game Noah and the party encounter. Perhaps the rest of the party members like Pancea and Linka went on to find houses, like Shulk and Rex did? Also, Glimmer and Nikol maybe started houses in honor of Shulk and Rex, since it was they who instilled the motivation to forge a future into them!||
One more thing: ||A IS CANONICALLY BI!!! WOOOOOO!!!!||
About the ending: ||are both x and saga canon to the main universe now wtf is takahashi cooking||
...
(major story spoilers)
WHAT THE HECK SPIOAHBIRHIOAHiOEHBHAB
|| EARTHLIFE COLONIZATION PROJECT!?!?!?!?!!??||
|| PROJECT EXODUS REOAJGOPAHJEAHJE9AHJBA09I ||
|| SAVORITE BILL!?!?!?!?' ERHFDEHFEAHJNAD||
yeah
||also THE FUCKING DMITRI XENOSAGA NAMEDROP||
||AND THE PLOT DUMP RADIO HAVING THE VECTOR INDUSTRIES LOGO ON IT DHGJKLSGHALWSK WHAT IS TAKAHASHI COOKINGGGGGGGGG||
||also apparently the philadelphia class spaceship detail is a reference to xenogears||
||man's out here saying "fuck you, everything's canon" huh||
||only thing missing is disaster day of crisis||
i am crying
oh my god xenoblade
(post game title screen) beaten in || 30|| hours, level || 57 ||
this is IMO the greatest story ever told in gaming
as a series
I have a lot of questions still but I'm sure there are answers to many of them in rewatches
rn I am just so content
these truly were, the Xenoblade Chronicles.
shut up, dw
(i'm just doing the meme)
I cannot believe that || a RADIO that was in the BACKGROUND of a scene that was supposed to be emotional confirmed Xenoblade X is canon ||
(Chapter 5 spoilers)
I KNOW RIGHT
Looking back on X: ||Aren't there kinda Core Crystals in that game, looking at how the humans data and DNA and such was saved somewhere?||
I haven't played X
What's also worth noting is: ||The radio mentions a Dimitri Yuriev and has the Vector Industries logo on it, both being from Xenosaga||
||(I have not played Xenosaga lmao)||
I feel the staff role song perfectly encapsulates ||the message of Xenoblade||

It really felt like it was sending off the series

gj to me for unlocking the scanner upgrades right after i found every container and relic

oh my gosh "his employee"

end of chapter 2 spoilers I think
Rex & His Employee Linka Realize That Glimmer Is His Daughter - Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Future Redeemed is the Wave 4 DLC expansion of the Award winning 2022 JRPG Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
I recorded this video from my Nintendo Switch via an Elgato capture card. Then, further edited this video in Adobe Premiere Pro to include on screen commentary...
||do shulk and rex get hurtled forward through time or something, since like no other past characters show up?||
Maybe the others all died?
Or are in the cycle?
There is many open questions that could be clarified in a later game
I think ||Z pulled their data out of origin because they would not have survived for however long it was since the endless now began||
||there's been several noahs by the point Alpha takes over origin||
This was actually explained in the DLC if you complete ||Linka and Panacea's community tasks||
If you just want to know: || When the two worlds were communicating, they made a plan to build Origin. As part of that plan, everyone would be "saved" to Origin as data and then once the worlds combined Origin would start up and bring them all back. However, since Z froze time the start never occurred - meaning everyone is still in Origin, save for a few key people. While the reason as to why certain people like Shulk / Rex were outside of Origin, it is not entirely explained but they do speculate it may have something to do with a role for them to fulfill. ||
I cannot believe I now have to legally acknowledge this series.
This is so ironic, Alexa play ||Godsibb https://youtu.be/VjPWTEtuv74||
I love the Xenosaga Series and Its music so here without any further ado is Godsibb from Ep. III.
after having not played anything xenoblade for months, this once again showed why these franchise is my favorite of all time
||the credits like almost brought me to tears||
I loved the DLC and the games so far in general
||but WHAT THE HELL comes next????????||
100% achieved 
AYEEE LET’S GOOO GODSIBB
basically what I'm saying is until enough material is out to give it a more proper name I am referring to whatever comes next as "The Radio Saga" because that is so out of context nobody's getting spoiled form it for sure
327
I only have a few high-level unique monsters to kill to 100% everything. I'll probably just finish the story first before committing to that.
Nikol:
Matthew upon meeting Glimmer:
||When that scene happened all I could think of was an owner breaking up a fight between 2 pets and putting them on timeout||
I am in shambles. Just finished the game. Speechless through and through
lmap
and || the whole xeno x and xenosaga maybe made canon thing was even more of a special moment ||
do not click unless you've beaten FR
yeag
welp now that i finished it. i dont even know what to do anymore.
totk is in less than 2 weeks
yeah but those are gonna be the longest 2 weeks of my life 
eh? did that give extra stuff. didnt go into ng+ in vanilla xc3
Don't think so
good. i dont wanna be broken twice in a week
Oh yeah. I wanna try the wave 2 content. looked super fun when mark streamed it to me
oddly enough the DLC does not support NG+
That was actually a hope i had. to support that one thing they added.
god I feel that hunnel
now that you finished future redeemed, go back to ||riku in dunban's house, there is some dialogue you should check out||

||wasnt the case for xeno2||
||they gotta be cooking something if it's just there||
Finished the Future Redeemed story last night ||and got Rex and Shulk to join Noah's group of heroes. It was cool seeing Klaus' world as it looked before he carried out his experiment. Also RIP Shulk and Rex.||

||Not sure what had me thinking this was Aionios being created at first lol.
Setting for next Xeno game maybe?||
Watched the entire thing and agree
So I've been trying not to spoil myself on whether ||Blake Ritson returned as Alvis|| or not
Decided to watch the opening cutscene again today and I didn't realize ||his name is literally in the big cast list at the start lol||
Brighid is the real hero of the xenoblade universe because her strength and discipline to not kill and atomize tora let him live long enough to build origin

||Black Mountains|| theme goes craaaazy dude (ch. 4)
Yessssssss
I finished the dlc 
I have a few bosses left to 100% it but man the heartache I’m feeling rn
Aelia do you want to talk about the affinity scene ||where shulk calls dunban his brother in law||

That one and the one ||with Shulk and Nikol at the park had me on the floor
||

aelia how do you feel about ||the radio||
||absolutely exciting as fuck but man they really did have me looking at two different subtitles at the same time huh||
It was supposed to this ||emotional|| scene
And I was just ||losing my mind|| the whole time because of this random || radio || LMAO
||Na'el: "We don't need any of this... old li-||
||Sienna Morgan + Barry Crow Li: LORE LORE LORE XENOBLADE X REFERENCE LORE LORE XENOSAGA IS CANON NOW MORE LORE LORE LORE||
i dont think anything that happened in the foreground of that scene registered with me
I was more confused and flashed then even remembering the context anymore
fr though that scene's awesome aside from that bc ||Na'el's going on about how Alpha's going to bring everyone to a perfect world like Klaus's whilst completely ignoring the lore dump radio that's describing the brewing conflict that would eventually result in the destruction of the old world, symbolizing how she's completely in denial of the situation||
Takahashi I kneel
I kinda want a brand new Xeno series after this one ngl tho
I need time to like, continue to process my grief lol
whatever comes next is most likely going to effectively be a new xeno series despite carrying the xenoblade name
every game since XC1 has kind of leaned into that game's lore and that has it benefits but I do think this is a good place to leave it before it gets a bit stale
well, other than x
….
my god
yeah
I was surprised ||FR did a lot more with XC1 than XC2.||
well to be fair ||we had a lot of XC2 fanservice in base 3||
Yeah I really was hoping we'd get to see ||a town from XC2|| with the battle theme etc
I'd say base 3 still pulls more from XC1 than XC2
I was honestly thinking we would walk through ||Theosoir and find like, another branch of Liberators or other freed soldiers or something||
It’s all good though, maybe it would have felt cheap after ||Colony 9||
tbh I was expecting ||Argentum or Torigoth||
I wish that ||Shulk and Rex did stuff in base XC3
|| post game
We also had ||Mor Ardain|| in the background, we could've gone to the ||Al Cavanbich ruins||
I think there is a challenge battle
Oh yeah I did it
||They’re just so limited, even more than other heroes||
||shulk and rex don't even have any interactions with other characters in the main game|| from what i can tell

rip
but it's understandable why they wouldn't
||Smh people didn't believe me when I said that Syra Hovering Reefs was Mor Aradain||
oh shit u right
they were so evil for that
esp since you literally play as ||her|| in one story segment
YES
||Well, essentially the last part||
||she doesn't even have the properties of a hero in chain attacks, you have to throw fiona's effects on her if you want to use her order||
I mean. it does have a reason to not expand that
wdym
||if you think about it. There is nothing after the last battle to do, then to yknow complete the map. atleast not that i have seen anything afterwards||
yeah but I'm not sure why that affects them being playable
Time constraints probably.
||you play as them at the end of chapter 4 flashback segment||
yeah but. it is basically scripted
So you have all in one party maybe?
Since there is only 7 slots and the last one is unplayable
data doesnt equal changing everything you script into it.
Happens a lot in games
that is something i def see the same way.
although.
i guess it could've been a hassle to program ||switching to a seventh party member||
||ig they were just done. Like. They shot you full of lore and probably wanted to leave it at that.||
anyway going back to what comes next after xenoblade 3
well we know there will at least one more patch for 3
to add the amiibo support
maybe they'll add it then
I expect they'll give ports / remasters for the xenosaga series bc ||they can't just tease us with all that on the radio and do nothing with it||
i think they will. there was a patent thing last year me thinks
then if xenoblade 4 shares a universe with the previous games it'll probably be a few nods in the background at most, otherwise they'll be unrelated
Well, that isn't up to Monolith moreso than it is to Bandai Namco
I mean. Baten Kaitos. A.k.a their first game i think. gets a remaster port
maybe it'll still be Xenoblade but the Chronicles part will change in the west
||they also added the Xenosaga trademark under Bandai Namco in XC3's Intellectual Property Notices (inside software information)||
||XC2, which had both KOS-MOS and T-elos did not||
that's worth noting
Copyright terms can change all the time so I wouldn't take that as anything more than It uses ||Xenosaga IP||
we can always cope
It could also just be an easter egg
but it is a fact that Kos-Mos gets references and appearances in so many games. They do love their ips
or in Project X zone games. which i found out is also developed by monolith
esp since people say the || Xenoblade X || thing isn't canon
heh. that aged well
Well people are still saying it
even with all of that though, Bamco and Nintendo seem to be on good terms with each other
Because what they describe doesn't seem compatible with || XCX's intro ||
meh. people can say what they want. to me all Xeno feels connected in a way ig
I think Bamco would be willing to sell the Xenosaga IP to Nintendo
nah not sell it to them. But it would probably do best on nintendo consoles
and if not that, at least lend it out to them for takahashi to cook
besides. Bandai is working close with like. almost everyone at this point
WAIT IT JUST HIT ME
||NOAH. NOAH WHY DID YOU THROW THE SWORD INTO THE OCEAN OG MY GGKFJDHSHSJKAAB||
||HE DIDN'T KNOW OKAY||
I don't get it
hmmm
|| The Sword is essentially just Origin metal and nothing super special outside the world of XC3 I think. And after the worlds seperate who knows what happens to it ||
No DW it’s ||WHO IS IN LUCKY SEVEN||
Oh my
i think it's implied that ||there's a whole bunch of souls inside lucky seven||
||including major peeps from 1 and 2||
||well given when it was crafted. it should most probably be back where it was before||
I cannot believe ||I didn’t see Fiora because she was in a sword that Noah then threw INTO THE OCEAND JFKDJDJDJSJSJWKSNS||
|| The sword itself is Origin metal and made from Melia's key to Origin but the sheath is probably Noah's glove ||
||and thus Pnuema ||
||I took it as all the XC1/XC2 peeps were in Origin itself rather than the sword ||
but I guess it could be possible
lmao
I assume
And this is just a theory but
|| when we see the worlds start to separate and then combine again that is when Origin activates and everyone in XC1/XC2 comes back to life ||
|| I mean it’s not explicitly stated but I’m not sure who else Melia would mean here||
Oh sorry hol up
Edited my b, could make it worse if we assume ||Riki is actually in the sword too 🥴||
noooOOOOOOOOOOOOO
nah but. how would that work. it makes sense if
||like core crystals are part of it. since the lifecycle is different. and like the people of mechonis / telethia cause they have the kind of power. but not homs||
||They kind of do. Noah has at least one mid-battle voice line where he talks about Rex. And I assume he has one for Shulk too. Don't think anyone else does but it's really hard to tell.||
To add onto this, my question to this channel is: How did people who ||didn't play or know about Xenosaga/X feel about the radio scene and dropped? Did it feel natural, or was it more like "wtf are they talking about" and then discussed it later online||?
I felt like it was rather important since it played during a rather impactful cutscene, could make some connections due to what they said, but ultimately learned the most later online
What Andi said
except buzzwords like ||exodus|| and ||saviorite||
Oh yeah same lmao
yeah same actually
or ||nene||
isn't ||nene also riki's kid||
yes
so then 100% related
I don't think it could be ||Nene because Nene would not be a "dadapon"||
||Kino is a possibility though||
dont forget that at least 10 years passed since then
that makes sense lmao
Chapter 4 complete
wowwwwwww what a cutscene
||I love how it connects back to M's view of the destruction of Hope's Rest back in chapter 6 of the main game||
Also ||Harry McEntire continues to kill it as N, you could hear small touches of emotion breaking through his usual stoic N voice and it was a really great performance||
Okay I was gonna go to bed but I saw the beginning of Chapter 5 and now I'm extremely intrigued
wtffffffffff
Is this ||the final boss||
ummmmm
Well I have no obligations tomorrow
L M A o
so I guess I'm doing this??
it was 4:30 AM when got done
It's 4:05 right now lmao
||I walked into the fight without preparing gems or redoing my accessory loadout||
Let's see how this goes lol
heh
sameee
I was brutally underequipped
final boss was me with only 3 second tier affinitythingies unlocked
only 2 characters had all skillslots unlocked, 2 had 1
(I was very undergeared and stuck for a while lol)
music spoiler ||THE GUITAR WOOAOHAOHDO||
Beat it first try thankfully
Not the ||credits spoiling all the Xenoblade games lmao|| credits spoilers
Okay all finished
Without spoiler discussion I'm ??? on the plot and character motivations, but the finale ||was cinematic and cool and I really liked that||
They namedropped this and that is satisfying enough for me
the ||radio incident||
Supposedly that's ||stuff referring to Xeno X? Haven't played that one so I wouldn't know||
its stuff ||making every xeno game (gear, saga trilogy, x) canon||
basically the story of ||xenogears, saga, x, chronicles are starting there, with Klaus doing the final steps (ending earth, creating different universe, etc)||
(postgame) Kinda disappointed that the ||title screen changed to look just like the postgame title screen of 3, which I also don't like||
In the tradition of Xenoblade expansions, Future Redeemed pulls no punches to close the series strong after 13 years... or is that 25 years?

Last chapter stuff ||you know it makes sense to me that xenosaga is connected to Xenoblade because in xenosaga a big plot point is that Earths missing||
Can’t wait to see what Monolith does next aaaa
📻
📻
📻
i am finally caught up with all the xenos (not X yet) wooowowowo
damn you finished xenogears and the xenosaga trilogy that quickly?
Xenos dragalia lost???????? (Real)
Real!!!
🥹

Matthew Xenoblade does a little trolling here.
I laughed at this more than I should habe
I showed it to irri and he just shook his head seeing me laugh at it
Did not expect that ending
Also hello I have sort of returned from the void

whatahdkfaj hello nice chapter 2 opening with the music existing in universe??? that's so cool???
This implies that during the Zeke fights in 2 everybody was able to hear electric guitar during the battle
Personally I cringed a bit as it felt a bit too on the nose but I get why they did it
lmao honestly fair
I am such a sucker for that kind of thing though lol I love when stuff made for the videogame also exists in the universe of said videogame
Was waiting on one of the kids to spell out z5m20i12r04a28
*XC3 FR spoilers
||Horrible Mother Reid|| 
🫵
*Minor FR spoilers, but major main game spoiler I think
lmao
Same
Guess who started and just finished the DLC 4 months late
Anyway, I think this was a great DLC. It finally gave the last piece of lore that we needed.
Honestly, them saying they won't do anymore games in the Xenoblade universe makes a lot more sense now. This game and its DLC is a great conclusion to it all
they'll probably continue in the same universe, it'll just be the previous games are largely irrelevant to the new ones
but anyway that radio huh
Well, it's true that they could make a new story in the same universe, but I don't think it will be about (spoilers for XC3, its DLC and the entire series ig) ||the creation of new universes anymore. It was made clear that Klaus split the universe in two, those two worlds got merged again, with Alpha wanting to create a new world from it and Moebius wanting the endless now. But then those two factions got defeated and we're back to two worlds again. At the end of XC3, Noah and Mio said they'll meet again, but I don't know how or who would be able to achieve that, given that all the key characters are gone.||
I did pay attention a bit to what's been said on the radio, but not enough. I should probably rewatch.
||we're back to two worlds again||
watch the credits of the DLC one more time :)
hmm, you're right, although I was confused when that played
so I guess that ||ship descending into the planet is the set for the next Xenoblade Chronicles||
I've seen a few theories about that, one that I particularly like is that was ||KOS-MOS coming back to Earth at the end of Xenosaga||
