And thatβs a wrap. This has been such an amazing game to play through and I am looking forward to playing through Future Redeemed as well! Thank you all for coming on this journey with me!
Also: I got a good look at the picture that I was confused about in the video while editing and grabbing a thumbnail andβ¦ Iβm still confused as to what Iβm looking at. Canβt wait to hear everyoneβs theories on that!

Moebius is a corruption of Origin, caused by the consciousness of the people within it, their fear gave rise to X, Y and Z, the embodiment of this fear, the desire for eternal permanence, the endless now.
This is why Mio mentions Moebius is everywhere in Origin, Origin IS Moebius, the metal itself is permeated by the emotions of the people of Bionis and Alrest, and this is also why emotions are the most powerful power in Aionios unlike ether in the original worlds, emotions actively sway the fantasy that Moebius created, they distort it, giving rise to "gimmicks" like Ouroboros and the Sword of the End, this power is the keys Nia spoke of, it's what Bolearis uses to will the Colony 4 Ferronis to move.
So in the end the message is simple: Our worst enemy is ourselves.
That picture was our boy Rex, now a gigachad. And yes, he married all 3 off them, which is a bit weird, but believable if you know them.
So, to kind of reiterate/add-on to what a couple of other commenters said re: the end picture – The fandom really ragged on poor Nia in Xenoblade 2 for getting "rejected" by Rex ("I love you…and all you guys" after she confessed to him) so Monolithsoft figured they'd be cheeky and imply that not only did Rex end up with both Pyra and Mythra, but Nia as well, and then had children with all three of them. I can't go into more details without spoiling FR but suffice it to say that they basically trolled the fandom and canonized it lol. Now the fandom is making the jokes that when Rex said "And all you guys" he REALLY meant he loves all of them lol.
Now only the DLC is left, which shows the conclusion, but also shows what happened before this game. It's an AMAZING story.
As for Riku… there is more info in the DLC about that
The hero reinforcement moment is random
I love when Eunie says 4th best at 2:31:27 because as we know lucky clovers mean a lot to her so the number 4 is really important for her
I love how when Melia and Nia join the fight, we see Melia pull off a proper Starlight Kick where she doesn't fall on the ground, and Nia is carrying Pyra and Mythra's swords with her. Also seeing Poppi again made my heart explode!
I also wanna mention that Noah's monologue at the end is very reminiscent of what Jin says at the end of the Torna expansion, but with a very different meaning behind it. Jin is talking about feeling essentially chained down to an obligation and having no other choice but to keep going through it in the hopes of achieving a futile end. Noah describes continually striving for what you desire in spite of all the trials ahead.
The picture is showing Rex having kids with Pyra Mithra and Nia. Mio os Nia and Rex daughter.
Also you missed the post credits cutscene. It shows another version of the very first Cutscene of the game with the kids going to watch the fireworks in Melia's anniversary. Theres a huge important filosophical thought that you can take out of that, that has been bellow your nose the entire game presented en many ways, that many won't perceive and even fight against the tought, like Moebius, If you want i can explain it for you.
I'll never forget the kiss of Noah and Mio. They're perfect together just like this game is a masterpiece.β€β€β€
It was a great game it really is.πππππ Say if you Nia as a Hero you load the save file of the completed game and go to a place where met her in the game then when you have her Class to Rank 10 to activate her hero quest and the same you get Melia as a Hero too just go to Keves Castle Entrance and you will her and go to the throne room in Keves Castle to activate her hero quest when you got Melias Class at Rank 10. So would really like you to make next lets play video about it please.π£π£π£π£π£
What an ending, eh? Satisfying, and yet so sad. Of course, Future Redeemed is next and I'm looking forward to see you playing it.
Hopefully you get a chance to properly see that ending photo ππ
Did she see the post credits scene? I don't see it in the video.
I finished this 2 years ago, still hurts like the first time
This game is such a masterpiece, Monolith soft really knocks it out of the park with anything I've played from them. Great playthrough! If you like this genre: have you ever considered playing the Trails series? It's a big commitment so I understand when people don't get into it (family's, life, etc) but it's such a great series if you were looking for a jrpg with great world building, incredible characters, all that jazz
It's my own little headcanon that the reason Eunie ranks Taion as her fourth best bud is because her favorite thing that she brings up again and again in the main story, side quests and side dialogue is "Fortune Clovers" which is the goofy Xenoblade name for Four Leaf Clovers. So by ranking him her fourth best friend, it's her way of saying that Taion is special to her. Or at least that's my hope.
Also this ending! It has been two years since I beat the game for the first time and I've seen the ending through replays or watching other people stream the game over and over, and every time it makes me cry. The game touches on so many personal and adult topics and, in my opinion, handles them so very well. I've struggled with so much growing up and there are so many subjects this game explores behind all the quirky video game silliness that it really really resonates with me. It's also why all the dialogue starting with the last N fight is just one punch to the gut after another.
Absolutely can't wait to see your reaction to the DLC once you've had a few weeks to decompress.
fun fact: If you skip Eunie's Side Story, X won't appear inside of Origin, because she needs to be alive for that side quest. You need to complete that quest before you can do her fight
Fun fact, if you pause at 3:34 you can see Tora standing next to Nia. So yeah, he played a key role in designing Origin.
That picture broke a fair few people, but for me, it was vindication! Big happy aegis family! Take your time getting to Future Redeemed, because while it's not as big as the base game, the story it tells is definitely something else. Also, for Future Redeemed, I would recommend not skipping the credits in your finale video. The song they chose is very special for Xeno fans & Monolith both.
Thanks for taking us along the ride and I hope you've enjoyed the game and story.
Still some way to go with the DLC, fortunately, until the very end has been reached. Wishing you fun with it.
Hey everyone! I had a few comments mentioning that I missed the after credits scene. Not sure how that happened. I will record a quick reaction video to that this coming week!
I think you might've misunderstood the whole Zanza/Architect dynamic, the architect dies in Xenoblade 2 because Shulk kills zanza in Xenoblade 1, not that his death somehow powers zanza up. I believe the exact line the architect says is "the time of my other selfs demise draws near" when describing why he'll die
Very nice reaction series! I can see how doing long letsplays is more stressful than other content, still, I hope we'll see you again for Xenoblade 4 ^^ And now have fun looking up the photo! π
thank you
Best videogame trilogy ever madeπ
Bought this game right when it came out because I thought the UI seemed pretty cool (and I heard there was mechs.) One of the few games I went in blind for and Iβm proud to say I cried like a baby during this game. Iβll never forget it. It was MY GOTY for 2022
Glad to see someone else enjoy it
The finale at last π did you go back and see the picture? Shame you missed it! But it's been a great series of reactions and I'll be looking forward to future redeemed π
2:35:20 ish, gets me every time, Taion just falling to his knees. He definitely grew on me over the play through
Great series. Thanks for posting it all!
I know this comment will age, but it's interesting and fun to get the perspectives of folks who played this game now as opposed to those who did so at its release two years ago. Most of the early players were diehard fans of the series who went into this game with high expectations and came away feeling mixed when they didn't get their Shulks and Pyras. Players who get into this game now and from here on out, I think, are of a more casual sort who don't let the gravity of the series' past weigh them down. They seem to enjoy it so much more, this way. I probably fall somewhere in the middle, having skipped the first game, put hundreds of hours into the second, and am considering this third instalment to be my favorite game on Switch. It's certainly the one that made me cry the most of all games! Still makes me cry!
Thank you for a clean, friendly, inquisitive, compassionate playthrough. Definitely one of my favorites so far.
