@@wesnohathas1993 Yeah. I'm planning to stream the three games to friends at some point, and while I can happily skip all the sidequests in 1 and most of the ones in 2, 3's side quests are so plot-relevant and integral to character arcs I can't think of many I can skip, if any.. most of the less important ones are parts of chains

I waited patiently for your review of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 but I didn't expect this. I'm glad I fell down the rabbit hole and discovered your channel
I loved Ashera's ascension quest, which was never brought up in this video. Basically, her constant wish to die on the battlefield actually has a good reason, and wishing her to survive to the end would actually be cruel.

Homemade FlyFX, Awesomely goody Character art, Mechonis CAKE (4:40), sick environment sketches, a whole ass 35 min animated masterpiece, and a Flyann video all in one??!! Thank you and it was a truly wild ride :D
12:33 actually you can see him reaching upward trying to gain control of his body before it happens. the GOAT literally rips his frickin eye out, i was like holy spark
Fun fact about the hero biter: The thing its standing on isn't a pedestal...its actually Riki's grave and the Dragon was actually protecting him, in other words...you invaded his sanctuary ~>~
@Arin Jäger if you think about it, that dragon is likely a baby of avalanche abaasy. That superboss in xenoblade chronicles was the strongest in the game and was part of a sidequest involving the nopon archsage. You had to beat it for riki to become a heropon.
This was my first xenoblade game and Nintendo planted the series in my mind with a side quest in breath of the wild. Over 100 hours in and still enjoying it
Great video! This game was hell of a journey and i enjoyed every second of it! To the picture Nia showed at the end i just gotta say one thing... My reactun was: " Huh... he really loved all of them in the end..."
I’m glad you brought up how sus Riku is because he’s somehow the most mysterious character in the game after the credits roll. I’ve somehow convinced myself that Riku is Alvis from Xenoblade 1 reincarnated. It’d explain how Riku could know Melia, who’d been locked up for centuries. Plus, it’d explain how Riku got the plot-convenient sword Lucky Seven which has some interesting similarities to the Monado (aka Alvis).
I've seen a lot of people theorizing Riku as Alvis but I just can't see it. That lad is 100% Nopon. He's pretty proud of his Noponness ("Everyone knows that Nopon still run deep!") and he absolutely holds a candle for Manana.
@@1Thunderfire The recent trailer is a huge piece of evidence against the riku=alvis theory. Alvis may have been responsible for the creation of moebius, or at least something horrific that made Shulk and Rex absolutely pissed. If Riku were Alvis, Melia wouldn’t have been so nice to him.
Good Sir, this is hands down one of my favorite xenoblade chronicles 3 videos, hands down. Love the animation style and the humor. I collectively lost it when you covered the Queen Nia/Mr. Wildride moment. 😂😂😂 Chef's freaking kiss.
It's been a while since I've heard anyone talk about chad Rex, so when you mentioned Rule 5 of the Salvager's code, I was so confused... until the very end. Well played!
YESSSS DUDEEE! WHEN I SAW GOOGOO! Legit was a highlight of the game for me ahaha. I honestly feel like that had to be intentional, and if not is a hilarious coincidence. Immediately thought of your Gears playthrough! 🙏
finally got around to finishing the game and watching your video and damn it was worth the wait! even talked about little things that i missed reference-wise. This style of video is super dope and cant wait to see more content from you big dawg 😤💚
This video must’ve taken a lot of worm to do. I hope this video becomes very successful and even if it doesn’t, I appreciate the dedication to the people. Also that statement at 32:47. I felt that. Definitely didn’t die during the last phase just to start over again but over leveled and with rage. Gigachad Rex brought me back so overall 10/10 ending
This game was planned for years alongside XC2 only to be released right when Morbius was about to die as a meme, thus finding a way to make Morbius a part of its lore. This really is the best timeline.
A couple things to point out (spoilers for lategame stuff) (please be enough room to hide everything) Valdi was never mentioned, but he is a good boy who just wants to build a friend. His class is Sharla but without the kill button, so protect the child pls. I kind of wish his massive quest chain to get Dorrick finished had more reward to it at the end, though. Shania comes back as Moebius and attacks the city. Ghondor punches the life out of her. Sena gets a class upgrade from this event. I don't know, either. You missed out on coverage of the post-credits scene, which is a continuation of the opening cutscene. Everyone is back to being kids again, living in their original worlds. Noah is called to by his familiar friends and starts to follow, only to get distracted by a very familiar sound: the Agnian off-seer melody. Good video, and I hope you enjoy the DLC.
Ah, don't worry. Ghondor's class upgrade comes after she meets a giant friendly Tirkin...who then dies protecting his children. Being Ghondor is suffering.
Rotbart ain't gone, he just got sick of being bullied at the end of the game and is trying to get as huge as possible, also changed his name because of it
I was wondering why you had no Xenoblade 3 content coming out but now it all makes sense. This game was an amazing journey, it is understandable that you'd want to play it on your own time. Glad to see you enjoyed it so much. LOL @ becoming level 50 around chapter 3 man, that must've made the rest of the game a cakewalk haha.
the sad thing about the punch that Mio pulls on Moebius O and P is that, she's most likely only able to do it because she no longer feels things through touch; which is foreshadowed at the scene on a camp before the fight, where she struggles to rehearse her tune because she's losing feel in her hands
@@jesseallen3109 it is absolutely epic! knowing why Mio didn't even wince after the fact only makes her thought process even more so, she basically went "these fellers talkin' crap 'bout us, snuff this, not like am gonna feel the impact." it's delightful
God I still remember chapter 5, that damn line where mio was like "if I could do it again I'd just spend more time with my noah", and then i cried for like 10 minutes... And not like a little sniffley cry either, dawg I was straight up bawling and in pain😂. Then you get the actual context/plot element in chapter 6 that happens, and that made it somehow hurt EVEN WORSE. God I hated how chapter 5 completely crashed in on itself with the whole prison part being really dumb IMO, but MAN that's easily the most emotionally invested I've ever been in a game. Easily my fav xenoblade character now and honestly prob my 2nd fav Nintendo character just behind midna.
Chapter 5 broke me. The longer it went on, the more i felt like: soemthing HAS to happen! They can't just kill off Mio! My bet was, that Monica and co would stage some epic rescue upon learning that we've failed. The whole thing was a ride i definitely won't forget for a good while.
I had to wait until May 2023 to watch and enjoy this amazing video, and it was nice to relive this game. My 200 hour playthrough (which is now 300 postgame) took me nearly 10 months to play. Just…so good.
you thought you bit off more than you could chew but you chewed this up with moxie and spit out this masterpiece with some of your best humor and storytelling to date. its clear xenoblade 3 meant a lot to you and in turn you put out what is probably the most entertaining video on it on this platform. phenomenal effort ‼
17:00. See. I int-ed my boat ride experience by taking the time to literally map out the entire ocean on the minimap. Yeah I shouldn't have done that, but boy did i feel accomplished.
This is, like, exactly how I played the game. I spent like a full ten hours doing sidequests and exploring the Erythia Sea when I got there because God I love the boat
Never went 100% on the other two but I fiended sidequests so hard in this game before beating the game because I didn't wanna be roo overleveled for anything that I'm basically already done with most non-postgame content, so might as well right? I am struggling with finding the way to complete nias memories and dorrik Phase 10 tho, but I'll figure it out. Also, this game has some of the best sidequests ever made, literally, the Zeon upgrade quest with kite and juniper and the spongey spuds is THE BEST sidequest I have played in my LIFE, it's so well set up the writing's on point, kite's character arc is so amazing and earned, kite and zeon have such a great dynamic and I am OBSESSED with the kite zeon juniper trio, I accually cannot stop talking about how much I love them and appreciate them and how much I want them to be together!
Thanks for making this video and giving me catharsis and a platform to voice some of my frustrations with this beautiful gem of a game! xD Will keep it brief, but the insane ending to chapter 5 DESTROYED me, the big revelation of Chapter 3 at Colony Ligma (or was it Lambda?) was a real point-of-no-return moment in the story for me, and the final boss battle is exactly what you describe it as: a 13 phase boss fight with unskippable cutscenes xD I ended up clearing it in my third try, after I had leveled my squad from lvl 72 to 74 and equip them with a bit more survivable kit, but there was no doubt I REALLY wished I could skip some of those cutscenes when I tried my second attempt out of sheer stubbornness xD In general, great recap and great animation, always a joy to watch your stuff dude!
It wasn’t until swordmarch that I realized just how massive the titans of XC1 are. Like yeah I know Sword Valley is absolutely massive but I just never really noticed
Lucky 7 + Capable Hands. Got it. I already beat all the super bosses thanks to the DLC hero class. I haven't used Noah as sword fighter for awhile since I've been trying to get all the classes to at least level 10. This was a great video by the way
Been seeing this in my recommended for like a week been slowly going through the game and finally finished last night and not gonna lie "daft punk succubus" got me good
Found your channel through this video, and I gotta say - I like what I'm seein'! All jokes aside, great video, and great game, sank over 120 hours into it before the dlc with the challenges dropped, and just like you said, really like that they explore some darker themes - I mean even the certain character aging up wasn't completely out of nowhere, and has a weird sadness to it, as they just lose out on living those inbetween years (trying my best to be spoiler free)
Great video. Def agree with most of your thoughts as xenoblade has been a fav franchise. The emotions brought out by this game has been a ride for sure.
damn, you missed all the postgame sidequests with nia and melia! and also i dont think you talked more about triton's miso soup like you said you would earlier in the video? other than that great work!
"Hear that Noah? Lanz wants something meatier!" Shut up Eunie! God damnit! You've said that like 20 times in a row uninterrupted by ANYONE else's lines!
Funnily enough Riku is explained in the dlc side story future redeemed. Theres a cutscene where Riku states his Dadapon was a companion with melia, which most likely means Heropon Riki is Rikus Father.
pausing for now thank for making this video , really fun too relive the events! i ran thru the story and the content is almost endless, Costumes from challenge battles,upgraded weapons of the main cast, THE LOREEEE ughh such a good game i just wish the story was lonnger haha
My favourite classes to play are fiona, gray and Alex, but I also haven't rlly had the chance to mess around with nia or melia yet, those are just the ones I used in my playthrough and the ones that feel the best to me.
The bath scene where no one reacts and later when the guys react to the gals changing.... It's speculated that this is a reference to Adam and Eve. The cast eat the forbidden fruit from the snake; the power of Ouroboros. They leave the Garden, their Colony and all they knew, and learned shame. People think that the Flame Clock suppresses sexual urges as they only react after being freed. The swearing is also a neat way to reflect world building. Snuff, spark, and ashes refer to the states of the Flame Clock. Naturally, snuff and ashes are bad and spark is similar. Calling people mudder may refer to colony ranking, where the lowest is dirt. So calling them garbage or worthless, essentially. Queen is obviously their version saying God. Some speculation I've heard on the side.
The fictional swears work so well in the fictional accent of most of the VAs. Alexandria’s quest got me over leveled that I didn’t grind at all until I beat the game. Chad Rex made me keel over since I just finished a NG+ of 2 before 3 came out
Wonderful video flyman, having just beaten the game myself I thoroughly loved it overall and I'm in the post game now. Can't wait for literally anything Monolithsoft is cooking up next. YIPEE👏
I just finished the game after 120 hours and i only did the all the quests to do the ascencion quest and some postgame but was not as devoted as u but still, so much to do. I honestly found the side and hero quests to be better then the main story after chapter 5 though the ending was epic if very lengthy. Lets hope the expansion will show us what they are all up to after the seperation of worlds.
Can someone please tell me what song plays at 18:40? I've went through the entire soundtrack but didn't find it, I probably missed this part in one of the tracks, so please if you know, which one is it?
Hope you guys enjoyed the video as much as I did making it!!

Homemade FlyFX, Awesomely goody Character art, Mechonis CAKE (4:40), sick environment sketches, a whole ass 35 min animated masterpiece, and a Flyann video all in one??!! Thank you and it was a truly wild ride :D
12:33 actually you can see him reaching upward trying to gain control of his body before it happens. the GOAT literally rips his frickin eye out, i was like holy spark
It's implied he cut it out and cauterized it in one swift motion with his spear.
@@samreddig8819 with how he was holding his hand, looked more like he ripped it out
@@tylercoon1791 the motion he used looked like he thrust upward with his spear. The camera even focused on his ferronis doing it
Pro Tip: After choosing Mio's hairstyle, you can toggle it either way in the Settings menu, so your choice is not permanent.
Your humour is throughout this video is amazing, this is a work of art. I'm saving to watch again later because I know I'll be back
Fun fact about the hero biter: The thing its standing on isn't a pedestal...its actually Riki's grave and the Dragon was actually protecting him, in other words...you invaded his sanctuary ~>~
Where was anything implied that it was a gravesite?
@@Doomerang01 well one, why else would the hero biter be there?
graverobbing AND murder of a pet dragon guardian of said grave... that's pretty metal, ngl
@Arin Jäger if you think about it, that dragon is likely a baby of avalanche abaasy. That superboss in xenoblade chronicles was the strongest in the game and was part of a sidequest involving the nopon archsage. You had to beat it for riki to become a heropon.
Which boss is that? I haven’t seen anything like that
This was my first xenoblade game and Nintendo planted the series in my mind with a side quest in breath of the wild. Over 100 hours in and still enjoying it
That Gigachad Rex at the ending is the one thing I looking for in this video.
Great video! This game was hell of a journey and i enjoyed every second of it! To the picture Nia showed at the end i just gotta say one thing... My reactun was: " Huh... he really loved all of them in the end..."
Though he forgot about rule of the Salvager's code
@@Fermin-hw5pd there's a new salvagers rule now: "when there's 3 ladies you've married, give them your children to carry"
If you remember anything about Nia in X2, you know she has godlike healing powers and that shot to the heart was just a nuisance for her lol
I remember her dying very easily in fights.
“Fucks sake, I… I-I have to fix this, don’t I.”
Skill issue by D, didn’t know that the heart means Jack to a flesh eater
@@yoshifan2334 Tell that to Jin.
@@joelsasmad Jin is a special case though, he is the only flesh eater with a human heart
I’m glad you brought up how sus Riku is because he’s somehow the most mysterious character in the game after the credits roll. I’ve somehow convinced myself that Riku is Alvis from Xenoblade 1 reincarnated. It’d explain how Riku could know Melia, who’d been locked up for centuries. Plus, it’d explain how Riku got the plot-convenient sword Lucky Seven which has some interesting similarities to the Monado (aka Alvis).
Riku can't be Alvis, he has a personality!
@@jacobmonks3722 also, Riku ain't a twink like ALvis
I've seen a lot of people theorizing Riku as Alvis but I just can't see it. That lad is 100% Nopon. He's pretty proud of his Noponness ("Everyone knows that Nopon still run deep!") and he absolutely holds a candle for Manana.
@@1Thunderfire The recent trailer is a huge piece of evidence against the riku=alvis theory. Alvis may have been responsible for the creation of moebius, or at least something horrific that made Shulk and Rex absolutely pissed. If Riku were Alvis, Melia wouldn’t have been so nice to him.
Easily one of if not the best vid on your channel. Absolutely worth the wait and effort - hope to see even more animations!!
Good Sir, this is hands down one of my favorite xenoblade chronicles 3 videos, hands down.
Love the animation style and the humor.
I collectively lost it when you covered the Queen Nia/Mr. Wildride moment. 😂😂😂
Chef's freaking kiss.
I love the narration for this video. Ive watched this multiple times at this point.
16:20 i love how we now know that it is actually Shulk and Rex are the ones depicted in the statues
After playing over 200 hours of this game, I can confirm this has most definitely been the true xenoblade chronicles
It's been a while since I've heard anyone talk about chad Rex, so when you mentioned Rule 5 of the Salvager's code, I was so confused... until the very end.
Well played!
YESSSS DUDEEE! WHEN I SAW GOOGOO! Legit was a highlight of the game for me ahaha. I honestly feel like that had to be intentional, and if not is a hilarious coincidence. Immediately thought of your Gears playthrough! 🙏
11:04 Juniper smokin' the good weed.
25:24 Consul Y looks hilarious, especially his grin.
finally got around to finishing the game and watching your video and damn it was worth the wait! even talked about little things that i missed reference-wise. This style of video is super dope and cant wait to see more content from you big dawg 😤💚
This video must’ve taken a lot of worm to do. I hope this video becomes very successful and even if it doesn’t, I appreciate the dedication to the people.
Also that statement at 32:47. I felt that. Definitely didn’t die during the last phase just to start over again but over leveled and with rage. Gigachad Rex brought me back so overall 10/10 ending
This game was planned for years alongside XC2 only to be released right when Morbius was about to die as a meme, thus finding a way to make Morbius a part of its lore. This really is the best timeline.
A couple things to point out (spoilers for lategame stuff)
(please be enough room to hide everything)
Valdi was never mentioned, but he is a good boy who just wants to build a friend. His class is Sharla but without the kill button, so protect the child pls. I kind of wish his massive quest chain to get Dorrick finished had more reward to it at the end, though.
Shania comes back as Moebius and attacks the city. Ghondor punches the life out of her. Sena gets a class upgrade from this event. I don't know, either.
You missed out on coverage of the post-credits scene, which is a continuation of the opening cutscene. Everyone is back to being kids again, living in their original worlds. Noah is called to by his familiar friends and starts to follow, only to get distracted by a very familiar sound: the Agnian off-seer melody.
Good video, and I hope you enjoy the DLC.
Ah, don't worry. Ghondor's class upgrade comes after she meets a giant friendly Tirkin...who then dies protecting his children.
Being Ghondor is suffering.
_-Thanos-__ Shania was right_
Congrats on finishing this beast Flyann!! Looking forward to watching it all :]
Goated vid a good amount of laughs out of me great job flyman
Rotbart ain't gone, he just got sick of being bullied at the end of the game and is trying to get as huge as possible, also changed his name because of it
Loved the video!
I am also incredibly in awe? intimidated? dby you doing every bit of side content before the end like hot damn
Idk if you forgot to get Nia and Melia in their post game quests, but they are a ton of fun and add a small bit of world building we needed.
I was wondering why you had no Xenoblade 3 content coming out but now it all makes sense. This game was an amazing journey, it is understandable that you'd want to play it on your own time. Glad to see you enjoyed it so much. LOL @ becoming level 50 around chapter 3 man, that must've made the rest of the game a cakewalk haha.
finally finished xenoblade 3 and this video is so funny, i watched it 3 times and plan to rewatch it again
"I'm gonna do it, Shulk!! I'm gonna Xenoblade this Monado!!!"
This is my first time watching a video of yours. It was a trip! Cat box Mio ended me! Great job encapsulating such a massive game!
the sad thing about the punch that Mio pulls on Moebius O and P is that, she's most likely only able to do it because she no longer feels things through touch; which is foreshadowed at the scene on a camp before the fight, where she struggles to rehearse her tune because she's losing feel in her hands
eeh.. maybe. but I do hate that I didn't connect those two dots together. still was an epic move to just punch this towering beastly asshole.
@@jesseallen3109 it is absolutely epic! knowing why Mio didn't even wince after the fact only makes her thought process even more so, she basically went "these fellers talkin' crap 'bout us, snuff this, not like am gonna feel the impact." it's delightful
Pfp (Profile picture) and / or Banner Sauce (Source [Artist])? 🗿🗿
@@GrimmShaneWhat did the coward say?
God I still remember chapter 5, that damn line where mio was like "if I could do it again I'd just spend more time with my noah", and then i cried for like 10 minutes...
And not like a little sniffley cry either, dawg I was straight up bawling and in pain😂. Then you get the actual context/plot element in chapter 6 that happens, and that made it somehow hurt EVEN WORSE. God I hated how chapter 5 completely crashed in on itself with the whole prison part being really dumb IMO, but MAN that's easily the most emotionally invested I've ever been in a game. Easily my fav xenoblade character now and honestly prob my 2nd fav Nintendo character just behind midna.
Chapter 5 broke me. The longer it went on, the more i felt like: soemthing HAS to happen! They can't just kill off Mio!
My bet was, that Monica and co would stage some epic rescue upon learning that we've failed.
The whole thing was a ride i definitely won't forget for a good while.
I had to wait until May 2023 to watch and enjoy this amazing video, and it was nice to relive this game. My 200 hour playthrough (which is now 300 postgame) took me nearly 10 months to play. Just…so good.
you thought you bit off more than you could chew but you chewed this up with moxie and spit out this masterpiece with some of your best humor and storytelling to date. its clear xenoblade 3 meant a lot to you and in turn you put out what is probably the most entertaining video on it on this platform. phenomenal effort ‼
17:00. See. I int-ed my boat ride experience by taking the time to literally map out the entire ocean on the minimap. Yeah I shouldn't have done that, but boy did i feel accomplished.
This was amazing and really funny, and I cant believe you animated the whole thing!
This is hilarious. Gonna have to binge your content!
Love the use of the HaKox music from Xenosaga 3 during the flytuber explanation
Loved it when mwamba said "It's mwambin time" and mwamba'd all over everyone
So glad I finished the game in time to be able to watch this when it came out!
This is, like, exactly how I played the game. I spent like a full ten hours doing sidequests and exploring the Erythia Sea when I got there because God I love the boat
Never went 100% on the other two but I fiended sidequests so hard in this game before beating the game because I didn't wanna be roo overleveled for anything that I'm basically already done with most non-postgame content, so might as well right?
I am struggling with finding the way to complete nias memories and dorrik Phase 10 tho, but I'll figure it out.
Also, this game has some of the best sidequests ever made, literally, the Zeon upgrade quest with kite and juniper and the spongey spuds is THE BEST sidequest I have played in my LIFE, it's so well set up the writing's on point, kite's character arc is so amazing and earned, kite and zeon have such a great dynamic and I am OBSESSED with the kite zeon juniper trio, I accually cannot stop talking about how much I love them and appreciate them and how much I want them to be together!
I picked short hair for Mio because I’ve seen her with it for 120 hours already and change is scary
I played the game with her hair long for quite awhile but ultimately decided I prefer the short hair and changed it back
Change is scary but you can’t live in the endless now!
I made it long because she looks way better that way and she doesn't just look like Great Value Nia anymore.
Thanks for making this video and giving me catharsis and a platform to voice some of my frustrations with this beautiful gem of a game! xD Will keep it brief, but the insane ending to chapter 5 DESTROYED me, the big revelation of Chapter 3 at Colony Ligma (or was it Lambda?) was a real point-of-no-return moment in the story for me, and the final boss battle is exactly what you describe it as: a 13 phase boss fight with unskippable cutscenes xD I ended up clearing it in my third try, after I had leveled my squad from lvl 72 to 74 and equip them with a bit more survivable kit, but there was no doubt I REALLY wished I could skip some of those cutscenes when I tried my second attempt out of sheer stubbornness xD In general, great recap and great animation, always a joy to watch your stuff dude!
This video worth the wait man. Love the work, the quality is top tier.
It wasn’t until swordmarch that I realized just how massive the titans of XC1 are. Like yeah I know Sword Valley is absolutely massive but I just never really noticed
Lucky 7 + Capable Hands. Got it. I already beat all the super bosses thanks to the DLC hero class. I haven't used Noah as sword fighter for awhile since I've been trying to get all the classes to at least level 10. This was a great video by the way
Swordfighter Noah routinely hits the damage cap if you build him right. His smash attacks _hurt._
Been seeing this in my recommended for like a week been slowly going through the game and finally finished last night and not gonna lie "daft punk succubus" got me good
Found your channel through this video, and I gotta say - I like what I'm seein'!
All jokes aside, great video, and great game, sank over 120 hours into it before the dlc with the challenges dropped, and just like you said, really like that they explore some darker themes - I mean even the certain character aging up wasn't completely out of nowhere, and has a weird sadness to it, as they just lose out on living those inbetween years (trying my best to be spoiler free)
Insane project Flyann, very good, we will watch your career with great interests 👏
Great video. Def agree with most of your thoughts as xenoblade has been a fav franchise. The emotions brought out by this game has been a ride for sure.
damn, you missed all the postgame sidequests with nia and melia! and also i dont think you talked more about triton's miso soup like you said you would earlier in the video? other than that great work!
"Hear that Noah? Lanz wants something meatier!"
Shut up Eunie! God damnit! You've said that like 20 times in a row uninterrupted by ANYONE else's lines!
*Far off in the background* I’m the girl with the gall
... and I was the MVP! Y'were all thinking it!
Man a video hasn’t done that to me in awhile keeping my full attention for 35 whole minutes? Way to keep it entertaining and freaking cool man.
God I miss the xenoblade content so much. Flyann content is top notch as per usual
Funnily enough Riku is explained in the dlc side story future redeemed. Theres a cutscene where Riku states his Dadapon was a companion with melia, which most likely means Heropon Riki is Rikus Father.
you're funny as hell and your animations are amazing! great work!!
pausing for now thank for making this video , really fun too relive the events! i ran thru the story and the content is almost endless, Costumes from challenge battles,upgraded weapons of the main cast, THE LOREEEE ughh such a good game i just wish the story was lonnger haha
CRASHING THE MOBILE ARTILLERY!
My favourite classes to play are fiona, gray and Alex, but I also haven't rlly had the chance to mess around with nia or melia yet, those are just the ones I used in my playthrough and the ones that feel the best to me.
The bath scene where no one reacts and later when the guys react to the gals changing.... It's speculated that this is a reference to Adam and Eve. The cast eat the forbidden fruit from the snake; the power of Ouroboros. They leave the Garden, their Colony and all they knew, and learned shame. People think that the Flame Clock suppresses sexual urges as they only react after being freed.
The swearing is also a neat way to reflect world building. Snuff, spark, and ashes refer to the states of the Flame Clock. Naturally, snuff and ashes are bad and spark is similar. Calling people mudder may refer to colony ranking, where the lowest is dirt. So calling them garbage or worthless, essentially. Queen is obviously their version saying God.
Some speculation I've heard on the side.
holy shit this animation must have taken a REALLY long time
27:00 also she is able to out heal a full power malos's designation power!
Great video! I've been loving the P5 streams too, keep up all the awesome work dude :)
Congrats on finishing this video dude it looks amazing so far
I laughed so hard at this 🤣 great animation and commentary as well 👌 godlike content
The fictional swears work so well in the fictional accent of most of the VAs. Alexandria’s quest got me over leveled that I didn’t grind at all until I beat the game. Chad Rex made me keel over since I just finished a NG+ of 2 before 3 came out
British is my favorite fictional accent
@@samreddig8819 Britain doesn’t exist
Its so refreshing to see someone with a similar play style to me! I was 70 hours in before leaving Fornis. Love the video!
Idk how you could spend 70 hours in one map
I was pushing it at 40, but 70?!
@@emblemblade9245 yeah! Got valdi, went back to gamma, hit dannagh dessert before getting Alexandria :3
Never seen you before but what a banger video!
YOOO FLYANN got the Juniper being They thing right, LIT
Wonderful video flyman, having just beaten the game myself I thoroughly loved it overall and I'm in the post game now. Can't wait for literally anything Monolithsoft is cooking up next. YIPEE👏
I just finished the game after 120 hours and i only did the all the quests to do the ascencion quest and some postgame but was not as devoted as u but still, so much to do.
I honestly found the side and hero quests to be better then the main story after chapter 5 though the ending was epic if very lengthy.
Lets hope the expansion will show us what they are all up to after the seperation of worlds.
Can someone please tell me what song plays at 18:40? I've went through the entire soundtrack but didn't find it, I probably missed this part in one of the tracks, so please if you know, which one is it?
The Great Sea Stirs
11:13 the failed opportunity to add in Sena's yippee here.
9:40 it was such a big reveal that i spat out my cereal.... and I wasn't even eating anything at the time! :)
