Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Ending and Credits 4K

This was a hell of a ride and I am glad to have recorded all of it. The story was riveting, the characters were really nice, and Nia's portrait at the end is just mind blowing.
The Xeno series continues to be a stand out masterpiece with enormous length cutscenes. I curated a few notable moments into shorter uploads so they can be enjoyed as well. This being one of them.

[@shigerumiyamoto9612]

​@@matmil5 I really really do not hope they do that. I see a lot of people wanting for it to happen, but the whole point of the ending (and the story itself) is that life doesn't stay still and keeps moving forward. It's like meeting people in real life. Friendships will last, but the day you must go a different path will come and there is nothing you can do to prevent it. In some ways its a good things because it forces you to try new things and meet new people. And just like this game, the worlds were never meant to stay merged, but I truly believe they merged for a reason. I think leaving the idea open for us player to decide if they'll meet again or not is a truly beautiful message as just like in real life, you too will have this decision.

At the end of Xenoblade 3 they unfroze time at the point where their two worlds were meant to collide. So they will meet again, maybe with not all their memories intact but you could always look at that as a good thing. No more memories of war and of the tragedies they experienced, a clean slate to start creating better experiences.

[@uncleshithole9127]

Idk if it's the least satisfying ending but it is bitter sweet and I think that's why the ending was great

[@benaffblack]

No. They did. That is the new merged universe, everyone got reincarnated.

[@thebakalord]

I think that both of their worlds were rebooted as one. Remember the interaction between Melia and Nia in the flashback of Origin, where it was 300 days until the intersection of their worlds begins. Both of them speculate on whether it would be a new beginning or a demise that would both of their sides would fight against each other, it must mean that Origin must have rebooted both of their worlds as one to prevent any further cases of their worlds longing for one another again. Plus the way they built Origin was 2 halves so that each half would combine and then reboot the two worlds and restore it to how it once was: one world.

[@pforgottonsoul]

[@komerihimura]

[@danielostrowski856]

He died for the rest of Aionios’s existence, sure, but that wasn’t very long. He should have been restored in whichever of the two separate worlds he originally came from after that anyway, just as Joran was. Really, every single character in the game should still be alive at the end with the worlds restored (except maybe city people? It’s a little unclear but I think they too will be reborn eventually).

[@prodigyweeb8986]

He didn't really belong to either Agnus or Keves so yeah he probably disappeared along with Aionios and other likely remaining Moebius

[@lukiia9854]

That's actually really powerful insight, I was aware of the string of fate but I'd never made that connection to the ending! The fact that Noah hears Mio's flute as well as this detail just screams to me that the DLC will be an epilogue where they meet once more

[@SuperiorSani]

I think the ending scene might be implying that the two worlds did somehow merge successfully in the end. If you go back to the last scene where Noah, Lanz, and Eunie are staring into the horizon you’ll notice that when the camera switches to their backs you can clearly see Mio’s flute hanging off Noah’s waist. This implies that Mio still has his flute and is possibly using it at the end which may be why it sounds like a Keves song at first. Technically this shouldn’t be possible since material from the opposite world would simply fade away as Eunie explained when Taion gave her the tea book. With all this the ending must be implying that Mio is using Noah’s flute which could only survive if the two worlds were merged in some way. I could be mistaken but the scene with the flute hanging off of Noah’s waist is the only time we actually see it when he’s not using it. It could be a scene error since it doesn’t appear any other time during the unmerging scene, but I highly doubt it is since this game like to foreshadow A LOT so I have no doubt the devs put it there for a reason. In the end this is just my theory and I could be wrong about some stuff.

[@SuperiorSani]

After some going back and looking at some scenes it's absolutely confirmed it's Mio playing the flute and the end. The song being played at the end is an original song Noah made himself and who else would remember it but Mio.

[@charles5212]

When you look at the trend of dlc that has been released for the saga, it normally detracts a bit from the main characters (xc1 less so) and so I feel that while everyone wants the dlc to be the journey of how noah and the gang meet up with Mia and the gang, some more likely routes are the creation of Origin or how the first people of the city came to be. What I want it to be is Lanz, Jorran, and Eunie searching for Noah as he dissapears at the end. Maybe a cross world distortion event like the fog king but instead they learn to harness it so the world are together as one while still being separate.

I would say up until the end that Melia and Nia are the only callbacks to the previous games.

[@shigerumiyamoto9612]

I seriously really really do NOT hope they do that. The whole point of the ending (and the story itself) is that life doesn't stay still and keeps moving forward. The fact that you want them so badly to return is just a testament to the overall themes that there is a mobius inside of us all (which desires the endless now). It's like meeting people in real life. Friendships will last, but the day you must go a different path will come and there is nothing you can do to prevent it. In some ways its a good things because it forces you to try new things and meet new people. And just like this game, the worlds were never meant to stay merged, but I truly believe they merged for a reason. I think leaving the idea open for us player to decide if they'll meet again or not is a truly beautiful message as just like in real life, you too will have this decision. This game was truly beautiful T_T

[@mediocreindigo9422]

The ending is bittersweet but I think it fits thematically. The message of the game is about accepting change and moving on with your life, even if it means parting with those you care about. Besides, while it may be sad to see the Kevesis and Agnians separated, the post-credits scene implies that Noah will reunite with Mio despite them being on different worlds and not remembering much of their previous lives, and if Noah and Mio can be together again, so can the other characters. Lanz will reunite with Sena, Eunie will reunite with Taion, and Riku will reunite with Manana. Nia says herself that she believes "even if now, we become separated for a time, one day we'll surely get to walk hand-in-hand again." I also believe that the people of the City are either still alive or will eventually be reincarnated, as Ghondor says at 8:26 that the party members don't need to worry about them as long as they get to be reborn. I recall a different point in the game in which someone says that the people of the City are "our future," so whatever happened to them, I think it's safe to say they'll be back. The ending isn't a goodbye, but rather a "see you later."

[@Bradman162]

This ending absolutely destroyed me. Everything in this ending was perfect, the references to the previous games and the ultimate conclusion and upset for our main characters. I loved the message of this game - to not give up even when life continues to get in the way. The imagery of our heroes running to be with each other only to fail hurts and the song is just awesome.

I love how each Xenoblade game has a distinct theme, xc1 was forgiveness, xc2 was hope, and in Xenoblade 3 those main themes are present but they are overshadowed by a far more heartwrenching one, grief. Grief over death, grief over not having a place in the world, grief over being separated of your loved ones. But in the end grief never goes away, it is a burden, grief is the weight of life, the only option is to accept it in you and then walk on without regrets. In the end Klaus got what he wanted, a new world, a new place, or places for humanity to thrive and not commit the same mistakes. But mistakes are human, but it is also human to acknowledge them and to mend them in order to build a better future. And one of the biggest mistakes a person can make is to live a life guided by regret and grief.

Because that's the only reason I could think of that would explain why Agnian genetics are so much more diverse compared to xc2 (blades carried genetics information from the original Earth before Klaus destroyed it, so their genes being added to the genepool would explain all races that weren't in xc2).

One of the best games ever made, a piece of high art of the utmost caliber, that provided a deeply meaningful message that is essential for humanity to understand if we are to move on from repeating history: That clinging to the now, by way of hedonistically indulging in momentary pleasure and staying within the bound of comforting familiarity, or by wanting things to remain the same at the expense of the future, keeps us and our descendants locked in unending conflict. If we want to move forward as a species we need to accept the sadness of separation, for all the people, habits and things we cling to, and embrace the future in the hopes of it resulting in something better.
