So glad you’re geeking out over this the exact same way as I when I saw this. I played the original 2 xenoblades and got to enjoy them again through your let’s plays, and played 3 along side your let’s play, sooo you were the first I thought of when I saw this release announcement. I was overjoyed to see you had already posted reaction to it. It’s like nerding out over something with your best friend. Anyway, thanks
I one-hundred percent agree, which just raises even more questions. Z seemed like he had the power to destroy the world, some thing Pnuema and Malos needed the assistance of a powerful mech to do, so how come Alvis seems so much stronger? It took the power of three Monados to rewrite the world, so I don't think it's just because he has his Monado.
@@vivalaglavii6736 xc1 world was made of ether while xc2 world had ether in the air so alvis could more easily manipulate matter. In theory they are all equally as strong and being connected to the conduit means they could not only destroy the world but universe(s) even without mechs. Z is so strong cuz he's in aionios and has control over origin basically like having access to admin
@@baked7423 I agree that in theory they could, but they've all needed the assistance of something to reach universal power. I suppose thinking about it, it probably means Alvis has taken over Orgin somehow since his being part of the Conduit likely makes him exempt from Z's world altering powers.
@@marche800 Right, but the Orgin is much more powerful than a single Monado, correct? So it could be possible that the Orgin could allow Alvis to gain world altering power.
Matthew, the great grandson of N and M. A, who could be an alternate version of Alvis akin to how Pyra and Mythra were, or something else entirely. Nikol, who might be Shulk and Fiora's son. Glimmer, who might be Rex and Pyra's daughter.
I was so happy that they confirmed it. I was a huge believer of the “The Vandhams are N’s descendants” theory so having that be the first thing revealed in the trailer was hype
@@СофияВихарева-ц2к Ah, you're right. It should have been that he let Mio name the child because he knew he had a bad naming sense. The focus is still the bad naming sense itself so it stll stands.
12:25 I can't believe Nico didn't noticed Riku just standing there like he wasn't, I don't know, supposed to be out of place hundreds of years before the main story. Gotta say, Chadapon aged as wine!
I am so confused now... I was wondering how Shulk and Rex are alive at all since this is clearly after N became Moebius which was much later than the foundation of Aionios, then add in Riku and im just plain confused...There is some timeline shit going on here.
Nico: *Starts new LP* *One week later* Nico: So hey guys unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances this LP has been cancelled, anyways, BACK TO XENOBLADE BABY! YAAHHHHHHHHHH! *Nico said calmly*
@@BlueCrimson10 It would be really funny though if he just started a new lets play with a game he knows he totally hates. Like he goes in saying something like "You know I've had my doubts about this game for a long time but you know what guys I think I'm ready to give it a try" *Does 1 Episode* "Oh my god guys I'm so sorry, I really tried, but the game just stinks, and whats worse, it stunk so bad I'm pretty sure it single handedly destroyed the channel. I don't know what to do I- Oh hey whats this? Xenoblade Chronicles 3 DLC?!!?!?! WE'RE BACK IN BUSINESS GUYS!
I’ve been a Rex fan from Day 1 and I’m so proud and happy to see him all grown-up and seeing his glow-up! Shulk also looks great and the new characters all look amazing so far!
In XC3 they did say that house Doyle (?) and house Vandham were *siblings* and the statue said she disapeared and was reunited later. So yeah. We know that Matthew had a sister since XC3 proper.
I think Z called Alvis “my god,” so he might be the administrator of Aionios like he was for XC1, or the merged world? In any case, Alvis definitely got up to some stuff.
I think Glimmer and Nikol are definitely the kids of Rex and Shulk, respectively, but it might be similar to how base game XC3 handled that type of relationship. Where the audience knows it but the kids themself aren’t really aware of who their parents are, due to the way Aionios brings all their data in. The few scenes here, especially the one with Nikol and Shulk, really seem like the parent is admiring who their kid has become while the kid doesn’t seem to really notice or care about the parental relationship.
I’m pretty sure Z is calling Alvis “My God” which means that he’s asking Alvis if he wants to wipe everyone out. This also makes sense as to why Z is on our side for this. His goal is to have the Eternal Now, the endless loop and he can’t exactly have that if Alvis just kills everyone. Alvis’ true name is Antos
I agree, and why are Shulk and Rex on his side? I mean it could be just red herring but when they show Glimmer those randoms guy say It's her the clockless and ask Shulk for advice, as if it was something wrong
Just a few minor details, Z was saying “Is this how badly you wish to erase us, My God?” to Alvis, not some random name Mygoth. Alvis’ original name was Ontos, Malos is Logos, and Pyra/Mythra is Pneuma.
The Kevesi boy is Shulk and Fiora's kid, if you look at his promotional art you'll notice he has both Shulk and Fiora's hair flips; also, his eyes are green like Fiora's. That green location is Colony 9, the location in which Matthew and A are fighting N is Prison Island.
OK so the cat earred lady is clearly na'el, the sister. similar voice and appearance and she's noted as "missing" in the character profiles so what I assume is that Matthew's looking for her and when he finds her she's like. that. as for why she's all alvis-ed up. no fucking idea. this dlc really is just gonna be the "everyone is alvis" get together. he's alvis, she's alvis, IM alvis! are there any other alvises i should know about? na'el: meow
Why? Because he's buff now? That's still the same screaming child from 2. He just went to the gym and started a polyamorous relationship. Outside of that I see no difference.
That thumbnail Nico LMAOOO that's an excellent head-shake photo, definitely keep it, it looks GREAT! Also, I'm pretty sure that when Matthew interrupted the bbs fighting, that's exactly what is described in the Founders' Monuments. Plus, with the term "Clockless" that must refer to the City folk, before the City was founded! ey? Ey?? It makese sense! Super hyped to get my mind blown by how Alvis and that catgirl and the katana-girl will all relate!
The liberator's base of operation that Shulk is talking about looks identical to the new Colony 9 we saw briefly at the end of Xenoblade 1 and at the start of the Future Connected where it was now located on a small continent or an island that was right next to the remains of the Bionis.
This DLC couldn’t have come at a worse time for me. All my possible plans for the next several weeks have been upended because NOW I need to drop everything and play this first to avoid spoilers. I would have almost preferred waiting another month or two. XD
Paranormasight: has a character named Mio Monolith Soft: YOU FOOL, You’ve activated my Curse “Shadow Drop”! You are now unable to play any other game but ours for weeks!
Rewatching, I think that scene with Alvis, Rex, Shulk, and Z is the first thing to happen chronologically and might be how Z hijacks the whole system, it is probably the convergence of the worlds, something I suspect Rex and Shulk tried to stop and unwittingly allowing Z to take over. Later on, we see Rex lost an eye, and Shulk lost his arm (things their statues in XB3 showed) but that is not the case in that scene, it might even be the scene they lose them, but regardless, it implies that scene is very early on. I suspect when they were trying to stop the end of the world, and when Z manifested, he also stated he wanted to stop the destruction, and unaware of what he would twist the world into, they defeated Alvis together leading to Z creating Aionis in the aftermath, leaving Rex and Shulk trapped in the ruins.
Either alvis piped or it's some sort of reincarnation, also nihal gets his own alvis makeover later so that might be kinda like zanza reincarnating into shulk's body...
It's so messed up that N probably killed his and Mio's kid for his Endless Now deal with Z. Also, Glimmer has 1000% got to be Pyra's daughter, which begs the question what about Mythra? My guess she has the Flame Clock tattoo depicted how long she's got so she's probably a clone of the original and maybe they're still in Origin as data? But what about Shulk and Rex? So many theories, but soon to be answered.
The catgirl with the Consul getup near the end is Na'el, Matthew's sister, so Noah and Mio's great grand daughter (the grand daughter of the old guy killed by N in the intro). She's a different person from "A", your party member, the healer with long white hair and a katana monado. As to why both Na'el and A have Alvis' Core Crystal on their getup, no idea. We'll have to play the game to see.
My thoughts extended from current popular theories among Japanese and Taiwanese fans of the series: Gondo: grandpa of Matthew (and probably the son of the original Noah and Mio.) A: the real (or remain of) Alvis. Gender is irrelevant due to the trinity processors not even being human. Homura also said she chose the look that would easily get along with people, meaning she can be a he if needed. Nikol: son of Shulk and Fiorun caught in the loop. Glimmer: daughter of Rex and Homura caught in the loop. Her original Japanese name is Kagiroi, probably derived from Kagerou, a Japanese mythological term meaning "flame of the Sun." What's more, her Japanese voice over was done by the same actress who did Homura, Hikari and Pneuma. Rick: WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I don't think the figure in the end is Consul A, I think it's just some fusion between Na'el and Alvis somehow. Na'el being given Alvis's powers or something. Because she doesn't just have a 'Consul outfit', she's got those little Monado-looking intrusions on her back. The OG Monado, like what Alvis uses.
A becomes Consul A and transfers her core crystal to Nael. The statue says that she eventually commits fully to the fight and she is the actual Ouroboros pairing with Matthew so it makes sense that she replaces A in the battle party slot.
Also like how Riku is right there, as Nikol is fixing up Shulk a robotic arm. Common variety Nopon btw. Pfft, my ass. Also Pyra and Mythra amiibo release dates announced, and Noah and Mio amiibo coming as well.
Isn't Nile (the girl with cat ears) the Founder of House Doyle? In the plaque under her statue it did say that her and the Founder of House Vandham were like siblings but they never specify if they were actually siblings for sure. Because you know, after centuries that kind of information gets lost
It looks like the order of combos are now Break > Topple > Launch > Burst. All of the “combo move” arts are Burst. Unless Glimmer has both Daze and Smash, no one has those two arts. We also see the enemy get Bursted shortly after Hellstream finishes.
There is still the recent champion from the prior update that I believe you didn't do a video of. Given how this is looking to be a separate story mode from the main game, like with the prior games, you would need to cover the new champion separately from the story DLC, which for us will be only an hour tops, but for you will be much long due to all the grinding you will have to do to get to the ascension quest, that is if you will try out the new champion and record it.
I think the part I’m confused about is that there seems to be like… 3 people who could be Ontos just running around somehow, Winged Alvis, A, and what seems to be masked Na’el? I DONT get it
Okay, what in the FUCK is happening with the red aegis core? Alvis has one around his neck, A has one as an earring, and at the end Na'el has it IMBEDDED in her chest where she normally has a flesheater crystal. Alvis and A's are identical and more ornate than usual, the one Na'el has looks straight from the trinity core...
I hope there's still some kind of epilogue thing where we see Noah, Mio, and everybody because I still really care about them. That being said, everything about the story DLC is looking FIRE.
Mathew looks a ton like N and Nael looks like Mio they could very well be related also that scene you were asking about is clearly the remains of colony 9.
all I want is an eventual lets play of Xenoblade Chronicles X so Nico can experience my personal favorite XC game but sadly this while distract him a while yet
Everyone missing Sharla's kid. Same, skin, eyes, hair and color clothes so related for sure. She's the one pointing a sword at Pyra's kid and says "the clockless". That's Fiora's kid for sure because same color hair and eyes (Fiora's hair is a different hue from Shulk's) and he looks like Shulk with his old goggles. So many questions and can't wait
Hopefully people will also soon notice that she’s alive at one point, destroyed in another, absent during all of the combat, and then returns in a new get-up. :) And maybe after that they’ll notice that the trailer includes zero makina or high entia. AKA we cannot yet tell when this happens in their evolution.
A has the Shaker Edge art which is something Malos uses, 'Vision' as a Talent Art, and Cross Ray which is one of Alvis' arts in the limited time he's controllable in Makna. There has to be some connection between A and Alvis/the Monado. But oh man, I wasn't expecting this to drop so suddenly, and so SOON! I'm gonna have to finish off my XC3 postgame file all quick-like!

Because she doesn't just have a 'Consul outfit', she's got those little Monado-looking intrusions on her back. The OG Monado, like what Alvis uses.
A becomes Consul A and transfers her core crystal to Nael.
The statue says that she eventually commits fully to the fight and she is the actual Ouroboros pairing with Matthew so it makes sense that she replaces A in the battle party slot.
@@westonmeyer3110
Na’el and Matthew both have Agnian irises. They can’t be Ouroboros pairs.
The third aegis is named onthos, mygoth is a name I've heard before but idk if it was in the context of alvis...
12:24 RIKU? WHAT IS RIKU DOING HERE? IS HE GOD?
Also like how Riku is right there, as Nikol is fixing up Shulk a robotic arm. Common variety Nopon btw. Pfft, my ass.
Also Pyra and Mythra amiibo release dates announced, and Noah and Mio amiibo coming as well.
Isn't Nile (the girl with cat ears) the Founder of House Doyle? In the plaque under her statue it did say that her and the Founder of House Vandham were like siblings but they never specify if they were actually siblings for sure. Because you know, after centuries that kind of information gets lost
It looks like the order of combos are now Break > Topple > Launch > Burst. All of the “combo move” arts are Burst. Unless Glimmer has both Daze and Smash, no one has those two arts. We also see the enemy get Bursted shortly after Hellstream finishes.
Smash still exists.
It just wasn’t shown.
@@catalyst539 it just seems like daze is gone tho?
There is still the recent champion from the prior update that I believe you didn't do a video of. Given how this is looking to be a separate story mode from the main game, like with the prior games, you would need to cover the new champion separately from the story DLC, which for us will be only an hour tops, but for you will be much long due to all the grinding you will have to do to get to the ascension quest, that is if you will try out the new champion and record it.
You laughed at Rex and his pants, now Rex laughs at you and your pants.
Thanks for this video. I did not know the DLC announcement came out, so I know what I have to buy soon.
Xeno3 DLC and Tears of the Kingdom all releasing within the time I have to take my college finals.
I'm finnished, lads. Hold a funeral for me lmao
This has truly been the pants redemption arc for Nico
The new song is being sung by Joanne Hoegg who sang the Xenogears theme song
I think the part I’m confused about is that there seems to be like… 3 people who could be Ontos just running around somehow, Winged Alvis, A, and what seems to be masked Na’el? I DONT get it
Okay, what in the FUCK is happening with the red aegis core? Alvis has one around his neck, A has one as an earring, and at the end Na'el has it IMBEDDED in her chest where she normally has a flesheater crystal. Alvis and A's are identical and more ornate than usual, the one Na'el has looks straight from the trinity core...
I have almost no idea what is going on in this trailer, yet loved every second of it anyway.
THIS IS SO CRAZYYY, HOW DID THEY SHADOWDROP THIS!
I come home to find the DLC releases on my birthday that's a pleasant suprise.
OMS IM SO HAPPY YOU RECORDED UR REACTION
Man, with how much Nico loves the Xenoblade series, I'd love to see him play its predecessor, Xenogears
I AM SO HYPED FOR THIS I CAN'T WAIT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I hope there's still some kind of epilogue thing where we see Noah, Mio, and everybody because I still really care about them. That being said, everything about the story DLC is looking FIRE.
Mathew looks a ton like N and Nael looks like Mio they could very well be related also that scene you were asking about is clearly the remains of colony 9.
"I cant curse yet because its too early in the video"
That had me Rofling.
There’s a good reason why Rex is another name for “King” good god look at dem legs
all I want is an eventual lets play of Xenoblade Chronicles X so Nico can experience my personal favorite XC game but sadly this while distract him a while yet
I checked the Japanese version.... Z was calling Alvis as "Kami" so therefore My God.
Nico at 12:23 you can see Riku.
Can't believe Monolith soft just used Shadow Eye and Then Back Slash with this sudden trailer drop.
Everyone missing Sharla's kid. Same, skin, eyes, hair and color clothes so related for sure. She's the one pointing a sword at Pyra's kid and says "the clockless".
That's Fiora's kid for sure because same color hair and eyes (Fiora's hair is a different hue from Shulk's) and he looks like Shulk with his old goggles. So many questions and can't wait
Niall was also the name of the ardainian emperor in xc2. I wonder if there is a connection there.
OH
OH OH OH
NA'EL'S KEY ART SHOWS HER USING THESE BRANCHING SYMBOLS
IN THE SAME SHAPE AS MEYNETH'S MONADO
Hopefully people will also soon notice that she’s alive at one point, destroyed in another, absent during all of the combat, and then returns in a new get-up. :) And maybe after that they’ll notice that the trailer includes zero makina or high entia. AKA we cannot yet tell when this happens in their evolution.
0:46 you just unintentionally created a new meme.
The area you described as Mor Ardain and Colony 9 is just Xenoblade 1 Colony 9 by itself.
The figure in the end is Na’el seemingly combining with A. A IS Consul A, Na’el is not Consul A.
Remember that most of the Aionios locations are fusions of 1 and 2 areas.
Shulk and rex became dilfs.
Imo.
AWOGHEWOIHGEPAWOHGW NICOB I'M SO EXCITED NINTENDO PLEASE STOP SHADOW DROPPING EPIC STUFF THOUGH?!?!
There is SO much to talk about, fuck!
I think what Zed said Alvis said My God?
Well it's a good thing nico just finished a playthrough huh?
I can’t get over that no one notices Riku just being there
A has the Shaker Edge art which is something Malos uses, 'Vision' as a Talent Art, and Cross Ray which is one of Alvis' arts in the limited time he's controllable in Makna. There has to be some connection between A and Alvis/the Monado.
But oh man, I wasn't expecting this to drop so suddenly, and so SOON! I'm gonna have to finish off my XC3 postgame file all quick-like!
Malos doesn’t use Shaker Edge, he uses Striker Edge.
Shulk uses Shaker Edge.
@@catalyst539 Oh, you're right, good call! My memory must be a bit rusty :p
