      What I love about those names is they reference something similar about the characters: Melia hid her "Brilliant Wings" from the party so she could interact with her people, as she loves to do. Nia hid her "Kaleidoscopic Core" from the party because she was afraid of them rejecting her for being a Flesh Eater. Couldn't have thought of better names myself.

    Since people are giving their input, I like Brilliant Wings more overall. Drifting Soul was an amazing track, and turning it into a battle music is amazing, but Battle! Bionis Shoulder was probably in my top 5 of all Xenoblade battle music before this and that saxophone may have made it my number 1. And also it feels liberating using Melia and having the music go off like that.

  • @24hr-Gaming
    @24hr-Gaming Год назад +5

    I think the themes chosen are ones that define Melia and Nia. Melia is the protagonist of Future Connected, so that battle theme is hers. And for Nia even though this is more the overall theme of Xenoblade 2, all the points where it plays are tied to Nia's own journey of learning to accept herself. It's a very nice touch.
    I also hope the DLC is a proper conclusion to the Klaus arc. While I appreciate that they wanted 3 to be a self-contained story I also really wanted to see a solid conclusion of what started with XB1 and XB2.
    With XB3 I think idk, it probably would have been hard but if it did it's own contribution around the lore behind the Conduit then it would have been more interesting. Origin is supposed to mimic the Conduit and the Trinity processors but we don't get much more than that.

    I wish we got more stuff similar, like Secret Areas being untouched part of biomes from 1 and 2, but with a shinobue arrangement of the OG theme. Like Valak Mountain, Satorl Marsh, Bionis Shoulder, Uraya, Leftheria and The Turqos Plateau. Something like that.
    And yeah If only we had more heroes from 1 and 2 as DLC... Like, we had Melia and Nia in base game, then Shulk and Rex as non canon heroes in DLC later when the DLC Story did release, yeah. But now I just wish we had more non canon heroes, give us the whole cast from Future Redeemed! Give us Matthew. Nikol, Glimmer. Na'el! I want A, she could even be the only canon hero unlocked from Future Redeemed, as an overseer or something! Linka and Panacea are underdevelopped, I guess they intended to make them heroes at first, but probably decided to focus on their other productions instead (and I can't wait to see them)
    But yeah now that the art/lore book for 3 release and that we do know that basically every origin metal piece is someone from 1 or 2, I guess we couldn't get more character, like an adult Reyn with a big Beard or something like that, sadly. But they could have at least given us Poppi 😭
    And not returning characters, but we were a lot to expect to see Mwamba, Nimue and Joran at least to be NG+ heroes, but no. I'm really looking forward to a Xenoblade 3 DE in the future, maybe we could get a few more heroes as mentionned before, give clear indications as to what piece of origin metal is who, and maybe even an epilogue ending with the cast of 3 reunited in the new Earth along with adult parties of 1 and 2 + friends, like an adult JuJu, etc. That could probably cover the moment KOS-MOS arrives and shit, leading to Xenoblade 4 that we'd have already played a long time ago by then (hopefully). And on top of that, add a few remixes of older musics from 1, 2 AND 3, as well as xenosaga. just do the ultimate fan service game.

    “I wish we had more characters from the previous games in here.”
    Absolutely not. Xenoblade 3’s plot has, quite literally, nothing to do with the previous two games’ characters or their choices. The whole conflict is nothing more than the aftermath of a cosmic natural disaster and an engineering oversight. We don’t even know for sure if they were even alive when the two worlds collided. Melia and Nia are here cause the writers deigned them to be the ones with control over Origin. And they’re barely in the game because, again, they don’t actually matter much to the plot of the game. They’re just lore. They could have been long dead and still served the same function.
    The cast and plot of XBC3 needed to stand on their own, otherwise it might as well have just been DLC for the previous games.

    • @darkmagic853

      Agreed. Otherwise 3’s defining scenes would basically be “introduction of previous game’s character” or “Ouroboros interacting with past character” which would undermine the main cast and their development.

      I really love this take! I 100% agree. I’ve also seen some people say that they think that 3’s plot undermines 2, but I don’t think it does. Spoilers for Xenoblade 1 2 and 3 going forward. Both shulk’s and Rex’s party’s defeat the biggest problems in their world and set it up to move forward. 3’s plot is both respective world actually going through the process of moving forward and trying not to mess up. The endless now really encapsulates the unwillingness to repeat the mistakes of the past. That’s why Noah’s party is so impactful to me because they want to take that step forward and I love that

    Nia's theme is so good. I mean Melia's is alright, but Nia's is like kicked up to level 10+. The only other XB3 theme i like more than Nia's is the Agnus Battle theme. That intro with the drums just kicks.

    Wait did people really not know that you could pause and retry battles?! I feel so sorry for you guys! On another note, I love both of the remixes! I didn't recognize Drifting Soul until it kicked in and the lost it, and now that you mention it, the remix for Time to Fight does sound like something out of Mario Kart! I feel so dumb for note thinking that the piece could be from the added Definitive Edition story content. I should have known! Dude Xenoblade 3 is the best soundtrack in the series by quite a large margin in my opinion! There's only one or two pieces that I don't like, and none of them I dislike. There's always been that one or two pieces that I don't like in the past Xenoblade games. Funny I might have beat Xenoblade 3 the day that you uploaded this. Haha! It's a big shame that both Nia and Melia's class are underwhelming. There's no reason to use any other healer other than the Troubador and Signifer class because of how broken they are unless you want to have a fair fight. As far as attackers go, the Incursor, Orge, Flash Fencer, and Soulhacker for after beating the game are by far the best ones. My biggest complaint with the game is how inbalanced it is after a certain point and how they threw away the fusion mechanic. There's pretty much no reason to use fusion arts anymore after being able to art cancel with any arts.

    *********SPOILERS************SPOILERS*****************SPOILERS******************* I'm 100% with Roger on the being disillusioned by how little of 1 and 2 we got in 3. Especially considering how it's supposed to be a combination of 1 and 2's universe. It just made me feel like our previous heroes failed and it would have been cool if they included more of 1 and 2's cast into the game. It's also annoying how we can't get Melia or Nia in our party until after the end of the game. Really off putting for me. It's not a bad game at all but I went in with different expectations coming from 1 and 2 and seeing how they clearly showed how 3 was interweaving 1 and 2's worlds. The whole time I was like "please get to the part where you explain what happened to everyone from 1 and 2" and they sort of only hint at things and glaze over them until the very very end. Now we have to wait for DLC to actually touch on the events that show Rex and Shulk etc together and they show Alvis. It feels like that should have been in the main game story line, not DLC.

      Also, Harry McEntire (Noah and N) and Aimee-Ffifon Edwards (Mio, M and Ranni) NEED to win best performance. I'd nominate the entire XC3 cast but god we're lucky if even the protagonists get nominated.

    9:10 I think a big issue with the DLC is that no matter what it does, something is going to be left unfulfilled. The base game brought back the worlds of 1 and 2, robbing those games of their closure, but left so many unanswered questions. The ending also left a lot of unanswered questions, probably to spark debate on what actually happens. It's fine to have one of these, but as a writer you gotta commit to fleshing out one of them. Founders DLC will provide context but miss out on saga closure (something the base game lacked and needed, being the end of the saga) and vise versa. I think that's one of the major reasons why there were a lot of people left fairly "whelmed" by this game.

    • @Megaelixer2
      @Megaelixer2 Год назад

      Completely disagree. 1 and 2 have had their closures with both DLC and Future Connected. I think too many people had too many preconceptions of what the game they liked would be and projected it onto the final product. Much like Xenoblade 2, 3 as a game can act as a standalone even if you haven't played the previous entries. Blatantly shoving in a bunch of fan service and unnecessary cameos from 1 and 2 would not only have been tacky, but would devalue the core themes of 3.
      3 is the most consistent in terms of quality throughout the game, which is why so many people loved it. While I like 2 more than 3 personally, the lows in that game were really bad. 1 had very much of the same problem.

    • @ClawlessnessScizor
      @ClawlessnessScizor Год назад

      @@Megaelixer2 To be told that the characters from 1 and 2, who finished out their stories and arcs of escaping a world controlled by gods or a world where living space was dying out, only to have them endure that same fate in Aionios (a world ruled by Z where the land can be destroyed by annihilation events) is deeply unsatisfying. And to be told that those same characters lost to the Moebius and spent the rest of their lives in Aionios fighting them when the characters of 3 beat them so easily is also unsatisfying. And to know that Melia was somehow just captured by Z despite her allies and power and that Nia was forced into hiding is also just annoying to hear.
      I wasn't expecting many connections to 1 and 2, in fact I'd rather the game not been connected at all to allow those stories to have been done rather than be given an addendum that they lost to the Moebius, even if it was all undone in the end. Also 3 is absolutely not the most consistent in quality. The Li Garte Prison is literally the worst written section in all of Xenoblade and it's not close. Nothing about that section works when you considered the established rules set by the game, it's very much an "and then" story. And that section leads into one of the most emotionally cathartic sections in Xenoblade. I really hate the idea that people say this game's lows are higher than the other two, because if we're talking about coherent writing or writing that follows any sort of logic, 3 definitely has the lowest lows. Really hoping people will start using some critical thinking on some of this game's sections.

    I wish i could like Kaleidoscopic Core but my brain wont let me. I like the original song but it just does not work for me as a combat song, I'm gonna guess it's similar to why I dislike Kass' theme in smash. I'm 100% ok with saying that I'm just wrong on this one tho haha
