my xenoblade chronicles 3 ending reactions

[@skyeifer]

hello everyone! first of all, i'd like to say thank you to all of you for supporting my xenoblade playthrough all this time. i am aware that this is not the best playthrough since i missed a lot of quests. i also f'ed up some footages including some quests in chapter 6 and the finale which i had to wait for months in order to forget what was happening and redid it. but nevertheless, i still hope that you enjoyed witnessing my whole xenoblade experience. not gonna lie, i have finished future redeemed and i still have a couple of questions that remain unanswered. so i am hoping for them to surprise us with dlc wave 5 too lmao 😂😂😂 anyways, i just started editing future redeemed and it'll definitely be uploaded here. so, stay tuned! this goodbye is not the end, homies! 🎉

[@DarkDezhel]

I’m hoping too for DLC wave 5 😂 can you even imagine!?

[@skyeifer]

@@DarkDezhel lmao! but i honesty can't see the story would be able to continue after the conclusion in future redeemed though. but nevertheless, i'd eat any takahashi's work 😂

[@AlaiaSkyhawk]

Yeah, such a bittersweet ending. I bawled my eyes out also. As for the post credit scene, the 1000 years in Aionios was a frozen single moment in time. The moment before the clock reached the hour. So once Origin was allowed to complete the reboot, the two worlds continued on past that moment :)

That splitting of the world as they run was probably my favourite moment in story telling, and it still gets me now like 10 reactions later

[@skyeifer]

it's such a beautiful scene...

[@champansara]

Especially when you hear "Riku!", "Mananaaaaaa!," it always gets me

Small note: X can also show up at the end before Y and Z, but you have to do Eunies side story beforehand for her to show up.

[@skyeifer]

OH REALLY??? i didn't know that!

[@Nelsito99]

37:12 I like that they showed scenes that we never saw but that the characters did making their connection stronger imo

[@claudeernestbarcelona2465]

Before you started uploading XBC3 videos on your channel, you made a poll asking which game from the series is our favorite. I answered XBC3, and it is mainly because of this ending. It was just perfect for me, the perfect scene for the moment. “Our worlds in their current states are still young. If in passing, they do themselves harm, I suppose, even then they cannot but carry on.” - Melia There will come a time that realization just hits. We have clung for so long to this friendship we had, too long. The longer it went, the more toxic it bacame, from both side, it was. We could see both of us are hurting but we were so close that we can’t let go. Obviously, things were going downhill but we refused to acknowledge that and we stayed as friends even if people around us were already affected. That was our “endless now”. Recently, we cut ties, and we rarely talk. I’m still recovering but it’s getting better. We were not doing ourselves good by sticking together, so painful as it may be, we had to part ways. We just had to walk separate paths for our own good. “Still, I have faith. Even if now, we become separated for a time, one day we’ll surely get to walk hand-in-hand again.” - Nia But then, there is still that hope, that yearning of a better chance in the future, where both of us will be free of our own demons, where both of us are better person, where both of us can enjoy a box of pizza and talk about nonsense stuff without being conscious of the wounds we carry around; wounds that hopefully, by that time, are already healed. “This goodbye is not the end, I know, until we meet again…” But, until then, let’s just… walk on.

[@andriystashko-ziabletsov7893]

This is a very special game. With each rewatch of the plot my appreciation for it grows - it's truly a work of art. Also, what a genius Takahashi is. Many ideas and concets in 3 are refined/repackaged ideas from xenogears. To think that he released it 25 years ago and the gaming community just wasn't ready for it at the time is hilarious.

[@skyeifer]

ohhh now i can't wait to play xenogears!

[@SirJeffhog]

Some of your final statements leave me with a knowing smile in anticipation for your Future Redeemed playthrough. :) Can't wait!

[@skyeifer]

thank you so much! i hope you enjoyed my playthroughs so far :(

[@Varindran]

Now we can count all the times you said Nia got the friendzone after 2 during the playthough lol. Rex really did love all you guys.

[@Agefonduge]

I love the castles becoming giant mechs, it's such a Xenoblade things to do lol. This end is so good, their little moments with each pair, and the run. It's impossible to watch it without crying

[@spike2623]

1:22:37 I got soo hype when every colony from keves and Agnus teaming up against Origin

[@LifeMushroom]

N is such an interesting villain. Deep down he knows what he did was wrong, but attempts to pathologically justify his actions in order to convince himself that he did the right thing. And he also seeks to break Noah's spirit in the hope that if he does end up convincing Noah to choose despair, he would be vindicated in his own decision to do the same. A really cool character!

[@skyeifer]

agree! i think N has stronger presence than Z!

[@ianp5367]

Drifting Soul really broke me in the ending credits man! Goddamn!

[@skyeifer]

I love how suspicious you were of nia when shes just trying her best to act proper like a queen

[@skyeifer]

cos she wasn't acting like nia! 😂😂😂

[@JustRenVO]

The worlds went back to the point where time stopped, Xenoblade 3 is however many years in the future to the point where multiple generations passed so one way or another most of the OG 1 and 2 cast have already passed away, but by the end of 3 the world’s resumed passed the point of where time stopped so by proxy everyone should still be alive

[@DanPorterBridges]

I can't watch this ending without crying. It's literally impossible. I've seen it so many times and watched so many reactions. Kills me every, single, time.

[@skyeifer]

lanz and sena's fist bump aaaaaaa....

[@DanPorterBridges]

@@skyeifer I remember almost getting my composure back, and then I just see Poppi come running out and I completely lost it, lol. Full on ugly crying through the entire credits after that.

[@skyeifer]

@@DanPorterBridges AAAAA POPPI IS ALSO MY FAVORITE XC2 CHARACTER 😭😭😭 have you played the dlc or other xeno games??

[@DanPorterBridges]

@@skyeifer I introduced myself to Xenoblade through XCX on Wii U last winter. I kept hearing it was the reason to own a Wii U so I got it and instantly fell in love. From there I tore through Definitive Edition, 2 and 3. Future Redeemed as the first time I had to wait for story DLC, lol. I went from not knowing anything about Xenoblade to all of it in the span of a year. Now it's my favorite series of all time!

[@skyeifer]

@@DanPorterBridges it is now my favorite series of all time as well, replacing final fantasy! oh i'm so interested in trying xenoblade x and other xeno games!

[@Nelsito99]

28:59 based of the weapons that M and mio have the blade that person has will be the same when moebius and looking at Lanz blade and other defender blades its likely that Crys was a defender role as the blade looks similar

[@KingLAO2964]

Rex really showed them a thing or three

[@skyeifer]

i guess they've planned it from xc2 lmao.

[@LcJoker24]

This game is beautiful, the series alone is so amazing, this game alone made me cry, there were so many touching moments, god I love Xenoblade Chronicles.

"The game keeps Melia's curl" , mark of a true masterpiece game right there ! XDD I need more Xeno in my life !!!! Btw your reaction to Poppi and the photo was priceless xD

[@skyeifer]

[@ontoshere]

I just finished this last night aftwr buying it on release and procrastinating lol and had seen your xenoblade 2 reaction videos and had to come and see yours on this. Such a beautiful story! I would've cried myself if i hadn't sat there for 9 hours yesterday just completely dry eyed. Couldn't help it i was i so invested!

[@skyeifer]

hey there! love your username! and omg 9 hours in one sitting??? kudos to you! and yes the story in xeno games is absolutely phenomenal!

[@ontoshere]

@@skyeifer thanks! Xenoblade has been a favorite game of mine since I first played it in 2014. And yes! I'm bad at not spoiling myself by googling questions so I just had to power through lol I'll be watching your dlc reaction too once I'm done and I'll have to swing by your stream as well!

[@wonfsmacho]

thanks for the playthrough and reactions, i really cry a lot with this games too haha, xenoblade series takes a place is in my heart forever, your channel deserves more views honestly, see you in the next video

[@skyeifer]

ah thank you so much for the kind words! i hope you're looking forward to other videos besides xeno games as well hehe.

[@dtmuffinman]

Loved your playthrough, thanks for sharing your emotional journey with us! Speaking at the end of character development, I think that was a huge part of this game that made the characters so lovable. One of my favorite moments of growth, as someone whose favorite character from the start was Sena, was how at first early in the game, Sena called Eunie "Eunie-love" and Eunie reacted with disgust and was like "Do not call me that" or something along those lines, and I was so mad at Eunie at the time. But then later Eunie called her Sena-love, and then also during the camping spots seeing them eventually warm up to each other and having the girls do each other's hair when at first they were always segregated.

[@skyeifer]

oh yeah i didn't notice that eunie called sena love omg!! thanks for telling me!

[@TspriggZ]

I think this is my favorite reaction to the ending. So much emotions it started making me tear up again 😭

[@skyeifer]

aaaa thank you so much! 🥰🥰🥰

[@GCLU]

Shoutouts to the Zed battle theme final part 2. It's quite good as is the ending. Also that photo..... I Love You And All You Guys has a new meaning now.

[@pennyUSDReference]

the Klaus saga of xenoblade games will never stray away from being my favorite series of jrpgs of all time. these characters really speak to me and not to mention my bias with the character designs (me being a trans person) i get MAD gender envy. all the magic of 1, 2, and 3 and their respective side stories will never fade for me. i'm really glad you ended up loving this series! *footnote: Fiona is best girl and if anyone says anything else they are uhhhhhh wrong lol /j

[@skyeifer]

hi there! i'm so glad that you also love this series so much! oh yeah fiona's quest was absolutely amazing, i originally wanted to put it into my video but for some reason, i lost my footage 😭

[@Alfonso88279]

The core idea for Xenoblade 3 is fascinating. They created a super computer that was able to resist the big bang produced by two universes, one made of matter and other made of antimatter, colliding. That's why the sword of origin is also the sword of the end and that's why it's so impossibly sharp and hard. Then the super computer would control the particles to rebuild both universes. For that, it has to scan every thing, thoughts included. But when it scanned the thoughts of the living beings, it found their fear to the future, to what would happen after the collision. Success wasn't guaranteed. So, it created a form, Z, that would make sure to protect the universes by stopping time, by keeping them frozen. Of course it cannot work and they are slowly colliding, but it still tried to stay true to their fear. Mobius is fear. A few plotholes anyway: 1. How did riku get the sword of origin, and 2. How did Noah and MIo manage to be reborn after becoming mobius since they should be out of the cycle.

[@WillieG-jh6jz]

I will never not cry when I watch the ending. I’ve seen it for the Nth time (no pun intended) and I’m still bawling. Fuck me

The worst part of the ending… is that they all forget everything and return to the start… even if it means Rex, Shulk, and everyone is back to normal too

[@MrAuthor3DS]

- "Heartbreak", Samon was saying. - Since Core Crystals themselves are like ether computers, I imagine they would work similarly to Irises (for transmitting data and all). - Couldn't be Riki. Nia said that this Nopon engineer came from the Agnian world, which would be Alrest. - Yeah, Keves Castle even has the relief of Bionis's and Mechonis's battle. - Of note, Crys isn't presented as "C", but simply as "Consul Crys". - I'm guessing you didn't do Eunie's Side Story, if you didn't fight X? - Z really thought he could use the heroes' key traumas against them - but by now, they're ready to use their own pain as motivation to keep moving forward! - There was a scene where the Amphitheater glitched out, showing that it's merely an illusion that Z created. - Just before Melia and Nia join you for the final phase, if there are any fields active, you can see their indicators even as the camera follows the ships fighting in the distance - just to show off how big this battlefield actually is! - I guess it's best to describe Aionios as a mixed projection of the two worlds. And what Ghondor says suggests that the Citizens will either appear or be born in the two worlds. - Yes, Blade polygamy is a thing in Alrest, apparently. So can we finally stow away the "Poor Nia"s? Please? - One of my favorite parts of the ending has to be the part when the landmasses are unmerging, namely for that endless running effect that it creates. - Well, I mean...Nia's and Mio's names are both _cat puns..._ - The worlds and their inhabitants were restored, and time has resumed. They're back to where they were when the game started, sans the threat of Intersection. (Also, since Joran is alive, I imagine everyone else who was turned into Moebius is as well - though I doubt any of them will have their Aionios memories.)

Was it all the shulk's stupid desire's fault? Like, why would he ask for the world to be dictated by each person's desires? This is what created the "concept" of Moebius, the coagulated fear represented by Z. In a world dictated by the desires of each person and not by gods, the absolute fear of the future made time freeze. That same fear turned into an intense desire for the endless now.
