As someone who hasn‘t played Xenosaga, the fact that Jesus is Canon in this Game is so weird.
Edit: I finally played the Xenosaga Games and gonna be honest, I‘m still confused
Fun Fact. chaos was suppose to be Jesus. He was the second coming. But they chickened out and made him an apostle in episode 3 instead.
@@MugiwarasNakama I thought it was because they had to cut the series short since they weren't getting all six parts they wanted.
@@MugiwarasNakama not true. it follows gnostic Christianity where jesus is actually split in two, the spiritual side and the physical. chaos is the spiritual. hence why Wilhelm says "For those were the words of Yeshua." chaos was speaking through Jesus, the man, who was oblivious to all of this.
@@MomoTTV It's just "Gnosticism", gnostic theology rejects the principles of Christianity by denying what Christ is to follow neoplatonic ideas. It's the same in Xenosaga, where U-DO doesn't follow the same concept of God in the Torah and Gospels and rather follows a weaker concept of the Monad
With Future Redeemed connecting Xenoblade and Xenosaga that means Jesus is now canon to Xenoblade as well
So Mary Magdalene has technically met Vergil, Kazuma Kiryu and Heihachi Mishima, then, to an extent-
Somewhat what happens at the end of 3 Mary and kosmos fused together sort of because when Wilhelm calls her Mary she says I am not Mary I am kos mos
Also Aty, Zero, X, Phoenix Wright, Morigan and Chun Li among the rest
@@ChrisTian-sd5yq and Alpharius. Don't forget Alpharius.
The fact Mary Magdalene technically has met Segata Sanshiro makes me feel conflicted
Jesus is now canon to Smash since XC3 Future Redeemed dropped.
I feel like if we dig deeper you can find some smash characters who are actually christians
Actually, Persona did it first
@@heyyodude8637Actually, Castlevania did it first, arguably Zelda did it first since in Zelda 1 concept arts there was Link praying to Jesus and he had a Cross Shield.
Did you not notice Simon Belmont?
The Xeno series is the best Series!
Still the best series
Yes
Definitely one of my favorites
I love this series so much. I cried so much during the third game and especially during that ending sequence. I loved that they had gone through it so many times and finally found the power to break, "The Eternal Circle."
The number of this cutscene had to be deliberate.
Why?
@@ceoofthen-word8849 Jesus and 3:16.
This game is a masterpiece..I love this game
6 years later. Have a like.
@@uncoolike549 lol
@@neoarcadezr 7 years later… It is. Problem is you have to play 2 first. 😂
Such a moving scene.
Here’s hoping Big J makes a return later.
Xion sound almost like Yuna from Final Fantasy X. They are great voices! Really pull me into the story
I never noticed, but Shion's voice does sound similar to Yuna's. Too bad Yuna's va doesn't really do much voice acting
You got your Jesus Christ in my Xeno game
Thank you for the upload my good man.
If I remember that scene was censored with a sort of light in the regular version. We could distinguish the Jesus face.
+Xiao Bayui I too remember a bright light veiling Jesus face in my English playthrough
Not on my copy.
This is a emulated copy the original has a black and white filter. You can easily tell who downloaded and played the game illegally by the missing filters in emulation @@ryansmith4494
They should have never chickened out and made chaos an apostle. lol.
I like be this game it made my teens and it made me who I am
What ur thoughts guys, can we expect an story continuation after recent DLC 4 ending in Xenoblade Chronicles 3?
After nearly 20 years and with most of the team gone? I'm not sure if I even want them to. I don't think it can be recaptured.
2006 on PS2? Monolith is the best.
This scene will forever baffle me. Is the dude preaching Jesus, or is chaos Jesus? If the latter, the game suggests that Jesus (chaos) learned from another and the man preaching is, perhaps, John the Baptist. This for me works logically, as the Bible expresses that Jesus did feel some sort of despair after the baptist's execution, which would explain the next scene of Mary pleading with chaos.
I have absolutely no doubt that the preaching man is supposed to be Jesus (they call him the Messiah, after all) - and chaos one of his disciples (I don't think it's just a coincidence that there are exactly 12 people listening to the Messiah). What's dubious is how this is supposed to fit in with the gospels. Maybe the game presumes that the gospels were wrong about the identity of the twelve disciples. For example, Mary Magdalene was not one of the twelve disciples in any canonical Gospel, but in this game, she is definitely one of them. The game even references Rennes-le-Château, a real-world location that is connected to theories that Mary Magdalene was one of the disciples, or even the wife of Jesus.
Helsionium great reply. My only question then is, why is chaos called Yeshua?
I don't know about the name... It's actually "Yehoshua" in the original Japanese version, but that too is just another form of "Jesus". I remember reading about a theory that chaos was actually the one who worked Jesus' miracles and people eventually started to mix up or conflate their identities because of the similar (or identical) names. Don't remember if there's anything in the game to support this theory, though.
From what I remember, Jesus is two people who worked together and were remembered as one person in the Xenosaga universe. Jesus did the preaching and chaos/Yeshua did the miracles. It's kinda like Hjalti and Wulfharth if you're familiar with Elder Scrolls.
@@Helsionium I know I'm late to he party, but that ironically means Xenosaga seems to have an Islamic interpretation of Jesus (Isa) who is a prophet in Islam, but not the son of God, and had miracles done with the help of an angel or some sort of spirit associated with God. I'm not Muslim myself, but as I was born in the Middle East.
Takahashi's comment in XB3 artbook give a hint about certain processor that's allegory for Jesus and have a chance to "return"
INDEED!
1:44 da na na na, na na na na na, da na na na, na na na na, da na na na na na.
His abilities may have been exaggerated a bit.
we got Jesus as a video game character before GTA 6
Jesus for Smash! Who's with me?
One thumb down? Show yourself!
I think monolith soft made the bible to explain more about Jesus and lost Jerusalem
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Instead of following his message, you worship him which is far from what he is teaching.
His teaching is the kingdom of heaven is within you.
so we have jesus christ in xenosaga 3 & adolf hitler in persona 2. who's next, genghis khan???
I have a question about this games, the xeno games in general. Are this games antichristian or somewhat disrespectful to God?
Because people have told me they are great games but I'm doubting, since one of the things I saw was the mary magdalene's corpse being transformed into an android with revealing clothing.
Not specifically antichristian or "disrespectful to God". But they are broadly based on the religion or religious school of Gnosticism which holds some views contrary to mainstream Christianity. Evil "deities" always turn out to be false gods, defeated by or with the assistance of the "true God". Like in many Japanese games, religious organisations are typically portrayed as evil because they are used by a corrupt leadership to control the masses or push another agenda. Genuine religious and spiritual belief is portrayed as something positive, though. If you're sensitive to that kind of thing, you probably shouldn't play these games.
But that's just the general idea. Xenosaga directly references Christianity, especially the Catholic Church. Xenogears and Xenoblade don't do that and real-world religions don't have any role in their stories, so there's a much lower chance they could be considered offensive.
Xeno is the NUMBER ONE hope for passing on religious values both to this generation and past this generation. Every protagonist ultimately emerges triumphant not because they were stronger than the rest, not even because they were "better people", but because they had faith. They quite literally spread their faith too, by leading by example with good deeds and surprising everyone with their justification of why. I don't know what organized sect you might belong to, but I think you'd find it both personally enriching and a strong vindication of God's benevolence.
@@Helsionium Thank you for clarifying... 7 months later. Because RUclips hasn't told me.
@@pasalasagaFrankly i think that Xeno is more Nieztchean and Pro-Spirituality but not much for religion.
Mainstream Christianity is literally a false religion on Xenosaga and Jesus is just a normal dude that preaches the words of God and uses the powers of Anima/Animus to perform miracles, Lemegeton is the name used for the word of God in this universe and Lemegeton is actually the name of the "Lesser Key of Solomon" a book about summoning demons.
Xenosaga has a more Christian-Gnostic word, God (Or U-DO) is not necessarily evil but he's also not pure good he's a neutral deity and the Catholic Church is the villain team of the game with the big villain being their leader behind the screens and Pope being the final boss of Xenosaga 2
In Xenogears the good church worships Sophia (Knowledge) which is a Gnosticism thing
In Xenoblade you have less directly Christian references(especially in the localization that switched things to Greek symbolism), the evil god is actually a scientist that recreated the universe with an experiment and messed up with everything splitting his personality into two for two different worlds, in one of them he's evil in the other one he's good and Xenoblade 3 doesn't really get into religion.
Xenoblade 2's main villain is Logos (Malos) which is one of the Aegis(in JP the Holy Grail) but with Amalthus/Marubeni as his driver and he's another evil Pope that is a bit of an Anti-Christ figure.
@@renren47618 I probably would not like them, I think.
Now I used to play this game when I was a kid and of course I never realized the Christian Symbolism that they added into the franchise. I like the fact that they added Christian Symbolism into the game but I must say adding in mythology that contradicts Biblical Scripture is something that can not be tolerated. Yes the author who wrote the Xenosaga story has my gratitude for showing the audience Christian Symbolism but adding his own mythology into The Word Of God is not right, if that was his intention which it does look like it to me in my perspective 1 Timonthy 4:7-16. We are stay away from mythology when we are presenting the gospel to the public and we are not to add to the word or take away from it, Deuteronomy 4:2 and Revelation 22:18-19. I don't know what was the intention of adding Chaos into the scene of Jesus Christ but I'm must say if it's for the mythology of the game rather than for presenting Jesus Christ and his teachings so that the public may learn who he is and why he came to the world for; then that is a problem and unacceptable. So I hope that the author of the game have a good intention for showing Jesus Christ in the game and not a bad intention. If anyone knows why the author/game maker added Jesus Christ into the game then feel free to let me know.
Japanese people tend to add Bible characters/references into their games because they don't believe in christianity but find it cool and interesting
They see Christianity in the same way we see Nordic/Greek Mythology, basically
@@renren47618 Well, that is why we need to spread the Gospel. Mark 16:15
@@ladshawn4534 i'm not that Christian, honestly i Lean more into Aghnosticism or Theism(believing that there is a God, but not a religious God, just a creator that no human knows about it at all or it is capable of understand, i just don't believe that a explosion came out of nowhere and started the world, that is it, i'm also not against the Bible being real, besides it personally not making sense to be real untill science/a divine sign proves the contrary)
@@renren47618 What did Lord Jesus Christ said in Matthew 6:33? "Seek and Ye Shall Find" You saying "I am agnostic/theist or saying I'm not that religious means nothing. Wisdom says in Proverbs 8:17 "I love them that love me, and those that seek me early shall find me" God loves everyone but those who seeks out God with all of their heart are wise because they take Moral Responsibility to understand Who God is, What does God want, and How does God wants us to live our life. Objectively you are to take Moral Responsibility and seek out God with all your heart. By Believing and putting your Faith(To Trust and Obey) In God. Romans 10:10 and
2 Corinthians 5:7. Now ask yourself this question, Am I Really Taking Moral Responsibility To Seek Out God?
@@ladshawn4534 I thought that your comments were aleardy going slowly to fall into fanatism, now i'm certain that this is the case
