I bet you're a hammer main

Been recently just been getting into Monster Hunter, cool to see how older games were. If you’re into JRPGs I recommend Star Ocean Second Story R, it’s a remake of the og 1998 game

Chrono Trigger is awesome - definitely one of the top SNES RPG's! Big like & Sub!!!

i'm fairly sure this isn't xenogears

dude clicked on every addon for wow haha

It is more or less correct that Jugend means youth in German; but if you consider it in the context of the society of which Elly is a part of; i.e., the racism against Lambs and more explicitly that they, the Lambs, are to be controlled / managed, and that Elly is given the go ahead if not explicit order to kill any Lambs that she comes in contact with, it is more apt to infer that the creators were in no uncertain terms referencing the Hitlerjugend, or Hitler Youth, when they chose to call the organization that Elly trained under Jugend. Also, Geburah was originally called Gebler in the Honeywood translation. But neither is the correct term the original creators’ were likely referencing / going for. So even though the fan translation tried to correct the error, it still missed the mark. The correct transliteration of the Hebrew term should’ve been Gevurah; which in Jewish mysticism refers to the forceful left hand or the harsh protocol of divine judgement. Whereas the right hand, Chesed, is offered in mercy / extended in grace, the left hand hands down judgement / mitigates the mercy offered by the right. Gevurah is sometimes referred to as Din, power, but both Gevurah and Din occupy the same place in the divine cosmogony. As Gebler / Gevurah’s prime directive is to control (judge) and suppress (maintain a position of power over) the Lambs, in context of the game, this reading checks out. Also, I love your videos, but the audio mixing makes it really hard to hear you any time music starts to play. In the previous video it was quickly corrected, but so far in this video it continues to make it hard to decipher what you are saying or what you are reading when the chat is saying something to you. I will continue to try to watch as I really like how interested you are in delving not just into the plot, but into the character motivations as well which most LPs of this game don’t go into nearly enough. All the same, maybe the audio mixing improves the longer you play this game so I will continue to try to give the LP a chance as I really want to continue seeing your reaction to the story. I can only imagine your reaction when the story really gets going :-)

So I am seeing the first instance where, in a way, the Honeywood translation is actually a tad better. “To use power, or to be used by power. Is that not a matter of the heart?” It was a lot more concise and took up only one screen of dialogue versus the two screens in the fan translation. Citan saying mind instead of heart and the wordiness of the following dialogue box didn’t exist in the Honeywood translation which was more to the point and poignant; especially since “a matter of the ‘heart’” sounds a LOT more specific to Fei’s struggle than a matter of the ‘mind’. It may be closer to the original Japanese in the fan translation, but this time I have got to give the point to the Honeywood translation.

Sorry if this ends up resulting in more comments than necessary, but good for the algorithm so, yay for that? Anyway, in -Gears and the -Saga games, replace any mention of Lost Jerusalem with planet Earth. They are one in the same. It is never mentioned again in -Gears, but a huge portion of the backstory of -Saga is just how Lost Jerusalem ended up getting lost.

Finally, I am not sure if the Blade games cover this, but Monado is a reference to the Monad, a fundamental Gnostic concept, and is very similar to Kabbalistic concept of Eyn Sof or the indivisible “one”; the ultimate unseen / unknowable aspect of God’s “full” or put more correctly “unindividuated” presence. The game never makes mention of the actual term Monado or Monad, but there is an entity / object that serves as a sort of stand in for the Monad, which uses more Kabbalistic coded terms to describe itself. From what I have heard, Xenoblade II and Xenogears are, thematically at least, the same game. So you very well might get a lot more out of this playthrough having already played Xenoblade. I hope that I too will get a similar benefit when I eventually pick up Xenoblade II, as it would be interesting to experience another take on the Xenogears story, with different events and characters.

‘Son of man’, outside the opening cutscene, is the first of many of the countless biblical references / terms thrown around through out the game. “Son of man” is used interchangeably in biblical apocrypha with “son of Adam” to refer to humankind; generally by beings who are markedly non human (angels, daemons, et cetera). You previously might have heard the term employed, if you read any of the books or watched the films, by C.S. Lewis by characters in his Chronicles of Narnia series originating from the titular Narnia to refer to characters originating from Earth, our world. The other biblical references used so far in the opening cutscene are conversely spoken by Jesus in the Book of Revelations 22:12: “I am Alpha and Omega. The Beginning and the End. The First and the Last.” and in Genesis 3:5, spoken by the serpent (or in Christian tradition, haSatan disguised as a serpent ) to convince Eve to partake of the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil: “For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened: and you shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil.” So the opening cutscene / anime opens with an admonition spoken by Jesus in the final book of the Bible and ends with a temptation spoken by haSatan in the initial book of the Bible. Narratively speaking this is very apt as something both ancient and advanced has been “judged” and is coming to and end and something new has begun (a new Genesis as it were). Is the new Mother /new Eve, or the purple haired lady with big boobs as you referred to her, pure from mankind’s original stain or has she too been tempted by the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil to become as God. I have played all the Xeno games up through Also Sprach Zarathustra but have not touched the Blade games quite yet. In Xenosaga in particular, especially in the Episode I and Episode III databases, you learn that an encyclopedic knowledge of classical literature and biblical apocrypha is key to understanding the full meaning of the various references throw around throughout this series. At least in Gears and the Saga games, most references are not being made just to sound cool, but actually have some importance to the plot / theme of the game if you understand the reference being made. Also, the translation of this game is probably the wonkiest of all Xeno games and some glaring errors are made, even in the opening cutscene. For instance, “Omega 1, they are attacking; I cannot stop them” should have been translated as “Omega 1, it is attacking, I cannot stop it”. It sounds like they add talking to Omega 1 and Alpha 1 as if they are teams of people, but they are rather talking about two distinct objects / systems named Alpha 1 and Omega 1. The autopilot system is named Faust and is another reference to the fruit of “forbidden knowledge” in the opening cutscene; this time referring to a German legend of a doctor who sold his soul to a demon for “knowledge and power”. None of this is brought up again, so I am not spoiling anything per se. It is just some thematic foreshadowing that some form of knowledge might exist on this ship that is forbidden and we are to assume was worth destroying the ship over to prevent it falling into the wrong hands. Also, if you look at the art asset for the sign at Citan’s house you can see that his name was originally actually spelling Shitan which was likely a bad transliteration of / or maybe even purposely altered version of Satan, as haSatan is pronounced in Hebrew with a sh- sound in some dialects. So one might ask is the game foreshadowing here or not. Is he a Satan in a Christian sense or more of a Satan in Promethean sense (bringing knowledge / light) to the player. You are far enough along in the game now you might be already asking those types of questions yourself, so I figured I might show how the game was already foreshadowing them at the very beginning.

What? Fei has a cross equipped?!?! Call me crazy, but I’ve played this multiple times and I don’t think I’ve ever seen this in the vanilla game. Maybe whoever imaged the emulated ROM hacked it in? The description makes it sound like the item you need a lot of gold to buy, but that turns your magic user into a disc 1 nuke much later on in the game. Fei is wearing a cross in the anime cutscene, but it was never an equippable item in the base game.

Man, i hope one day they remove the labyrinth. And there wont be labyrinth in PoE 2 Prayge
