![One Last You (Ending Theme) - Xenoblade Chronicles 2 OST [041]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/R6WKA_7LZHI/mqdefault.jpg)
These credits weren't just for Xenoblade 3, or Future Redeemed. These credits were for the entire trilogy. Beautiful ending.
And the entire Xeno series, at that, if who ever is coming down to the remerged Lost Jerusalem- I mean, Earth, is who I think it is. ;)
@@godzilla4189 It lines up too well for it _not_ to be KOS-MOS coming home.
@@godzilla4189 Not the entire Xeno series, we still need X2.
@@ltb1345 it references Xenoblade X Xenogears and Saga so this is probably the best we're getting for awhile
Not only for entire triology, but also for Xenogears, Xenosaga, and Xenoblade X.
when the flute kicks in and you realize its not the xc3 one but the gears flute😭😭
We‘ve come full circle (like an Urobo- eh, Ouroboros of course!)
It‘s so satisfying as a Fan of the entire series to get acknowledged like that. Even without the licenses and after all that time, they never forgot about Xenogears. Thank you Takahashi, Soraya Saga and Monolith!
"I Am The Alpha And Omega. The Beginning And The End. The First And The Last" indeed.
The way I realised that detail in the first listen but I just wondering who was the singer voice because the voice was so familiar then I played Small two of pieces and it was her... Joanne Hogg. They brought her back for one last goodbye.
In this song it was Joanne Hogg who sung from Xenogears, but Soraya was a queen singing for this marvelous and brilliant saga... @@ElehayymVanHouten-di8pj
I still remember when my grandpa bought me xenoblade 2 for my birthday. This series legitimately changed my worldview and taught me to see the good in everyone i meet.
I'll miss you forever papa, you were and will always be my hero. Thank you for everything, I love you
R.I.P. 😢
Going by the theme of the games, he left you something really important, his memories, dreams and will. And the lesson you learned from the games is thanks to him.
@@xenocross5129Yep, exactly! I ain't @exoticfishdance4464, but i appreciate the wholesome comment regardless!
To all the Xeno- fans who are no longer here... Monolith Soft has redeemed Xenogears's future at long last
It really is beautiful in a sense that Monolith not only never forgot about Gears but they're using the success of Blade to resurrect it, as for what they'll do with it going forward I guess we'll just need to be patient and wait
wait is it coming back what do you mean
@@ultramm9503 Nothing is confirmed but since Saga has been brought back into the canon now with Bandai Namco's blessing (their name is in the credits) it's pretty much certain that Klaus' earth was Old Jerusalem and by extension it's extremely likely that the light floating towards the newly fused world is KOS-MOS
@@Jotunn96 I really hope for a reboot of xenosaga and not a continuation, xenosaga has a lot of themes, concepts, and ideas that don't fit at all with the Xenoblade canon, not only lore wise, and they don't make sense. Even in my day, I didn't like some of them... Its not a bad thing to make the game lore more fit to Xenoblade, to remake the combat system and the graphics...
@@pablotg1566 Xenogears and Xenosaga were both heavily criticized for things that Xenoblade improved on e.g. Amalthus and N are viewed as Krelian and Kevin Wincott done right.
I love how the whole song can be viewed as all the protagonists pov
Shulk, Alvis, Rex, Pyra/Mythra, Noah and Mio
It can also be a P.O.V. from Takahashi himself, since the dude could only finish a saga that he planned upon only 25 years after Xenogears.
Works for a lot of other party members too. Reyn, for example.
Don’t forget cross

Well said 😄
Enjoy the journey we all had together. They took their time but we enjoyed it!
Yasunori Mitsuda actually got Joanne Hogg back, the absolute madlad. 😭
I'm thankful she is still around to do this. The ultimate culmination
@@celviceklein8536 that's even more amazing.
@@celviceklein8536 what did he say?
@@ellenrahman1462 Something along the lines that he was contacted by an artist to do vocals for a song in the game and that he cried.
Joanne Hogg is 63 years old and still sings as angelic as she was 23/24 years ago. I’m happy they brought her back.
Damn that was her?! The song reminded me a lot of that one song from Xenosaga down to the voice. She really is amazing
The fact that they got her back for the finale makes it so much more meaningful, what a way to send off the saga
WTFFFF SHE SOUNDS LIKE 25 MAX. I knew she was kinda old bc she did the earlier Xeno games obviously but goddamn she sounds so good
@@rhettmitchell some people just retain a young voice throughout their entire life, it's quite amazing
It has been so long I didn't even consider the possibility she might have been the singer.
this song has
-Xenoblade 1 guitar notes that plays during that ending theme
-Xenoblade 2 piano notes that plays during that ending theme
-Xenoblade 3 flutes that plays during that ending
Timestamps?
Some said the flute part was from the xenogear
@@MarioFan-qe9icthe flute was definitely used in the xenogears credits. However this time it plays the theme from 3 :)
@@Donban_ dann,
Etika woulda been so proud
@@Donban_ yeah the exact flute (idk the exact instrument, actually) melody in this near the end is straight from one of the Xenosaga endings
We're back on peak late 90s/early 00s Mitsuda. Flute, electric guitar, PHAT bass, Joanne Hogg. The golden combo.
(Have since been corrected that the flute is in fact a low whistle).
Actually, it's not a flute, but a low whistle.
makes me want to relisten to my old Xenosaga CD's I listened to in High School.
HOW DID I NOT REALIZE IT WAS JOANNE
@@B03DYXmy bad! What a beautiful instrument, in any case
@B03DYX it's a flute, can confirm
At long, long last, we can finally say it for real:
These truly have been the Xenoblade Chronicles.
Something something "shut up Reyn"
"WELCOME TO AXE TOWN, POPULATION, MY TEARS!"
From lifesaver to lifesaver, this has been the Xenoblade Chronicles indeed
This meme comment made me tear up
@@RedBull528 I wrote this comment in tears
When Na’el said “in the end people always kill people “ Hit really hard
Just commented the same thing
Na'el: "Did you know that everyone who drank water has died? What is even the point anymore?"
stupidly cringe. its like she watched 28 days later
I immediately thought of Jessie saying "Guns don't kill people. People kill people." in Xenogears and that kinda lessened the impact for me
Yeah it does fr hit on the trailer
Sometimes listening to xenoblade soundtrack at 2 am is just the right thing
Bringing back Joanne Hogg really makes this feel like the end of an era
We've come full circle folks.
An ouroboros, you could say 🥲
Like Urobolus (or Ouroboros, depending on what translation you prefer)
Thank You, Satoru Iwata.
Without your Kind Suggestion to have Monado: Beginning Of the world be named after prevous Xeno Entries, Takahashi would never have been able to tell the type of grand story he always wanted.
A true GOAT that keeps on giving, even after almost 10 years since you've been gone.
Indeed.
And yet another "Bleep you" to Reggie and the other goons at NoA who tried their best to make sure it never happened.
@@vainezaiven6677 NoA is such a joke. Been holding NoJ back for decades and im glad more people realize this
@@-lord1754 Whats NoA?
@@sorasun7757 Nintendo of America
@@-lord1754 Then whats NoJ
I'm 37 years old and I was 12 when i beat Xenogears and around my late teens I beat the Xenosaga. Joanne became one of my singing muses since "Small Two Pieces" and even wanted her to participate in a album I wrote.
I'm so nostalgic right now listening to her voice sounding still so youthful and angelic as I always remembered.
From an olden one, I pass this world to you, the youngen fans of Takahashi and the Xeno universe.
The end of causality fulfilled from Fei to Matthew.
Bro, I’m not even getting post-game depression, I’m getting post-series depression.
This song is definitely about people that have been with this series for a long time learning to let go after so long, and how Takahashi feels the same way as us.
Ugh, it’s hitting hard.
I don't think we're quite done with Xenoblade yet. That radio exposition dump during the origin memory segment, along with the ending, makes me feel like an X2 could be on the way and honestly, I'm here for it. If this is the end though, I really hope we get more Xeno games at the very least
@@mr.frigid8102 I think they might be planning XenoSaga remaster or probably remake next based on the dlc
They need to get the rights for their previous games. And while I would like to think that the radio is foreshadowing, it did take place in the past before the division of the world. Unless they are able to incorporate it that into Xenoblade x. Like they did with Xenoblade 2 with Klaus motivation in using the conduit
@@michaelreyes9283 they don't need to fully own the rights though, Nintendo and Bandai might have an agreement about it and it's not to unrealistic considering Saga characters in XC2 and these references in FR. Even license page for FR mentions Xenosaga IP. They're also on good terms with Bandai helping Nintendo to develop games.
We already have a similar case for Bayonetta series where SEGA holds the IP rights but still allows Nintendo to publish new entries
@@stealth0n hopefully you're right, I haven't played the older xeno games but I plan to. It would be great if they can use their old properties. From what I understood that's the reason they kept revamping and never able to complete what they set out to do in the old series.
Getting Joanne Hogg back to do the final Klaus-era Xenoblade song to tie all three Xeno franchises together with her voice is just perfection.
Takahashi and Mitsuda are geniuses.
I'm a Guy who almost never cries
I've cried more in Xenoblade than anything else in my Life
If it's when Fiora remembers Dunban and the Gang.
If it's where Lila and Poppi get to love each other as Sibling or Nia showing her Love to Rex or the ending grom the Torna DLC
The things that happen in Chapter 6 of XC3 or the End of Future Redeemed
It doesn't matter if I watch these Cutscenes for the first or the 10th time, they always get me.
I Love the Xenoblade
I love how Joanne Hogg returned after +20 years of her last work in a Xeno game.
Also I love that not only the lyrics were displayed ingame, but also were translated in every language for the people who don't understand English.
I still can't get over how Takahashi completed Perfect Works. What a crazy guy.
Perfect works is not complete yet. But if that ending is anything to go by were about to bear witness to what episode 6 is
@@Yoshiedude My guy Xenoblade 3 is episode 6
@@The_Pikaboi yea 6 of 9
Takahashi has never completed more than episode 1 and episode 5 of perfect works.
@@As_Expected_of_Pieck Episode 1 (Era of interplanetary war) is the Planetary War and the Klaus' experiment
Episode 2 (Time of the Genesis) is Zanza and Klaus giving birth to life on the new world
Episode 4 (Solaris war) is the battle of the Bionis and Mechonis / Torna
Episode 5 (Xenogears) is Xenoblade 1 and 2
Episode 6 is Future Connected, Redeemed and Xenoblade 3
The only one thats super ambiguous is Episode 3, which I interpret as the Giants, High Entia and Machina evolving and Alrests developing the culture of Blades and caring for titans
Spoilers for credits of the dlc:
Hearing this play while seeing a compilation of all 3 Xenoblade games in the background is something else man...
It made me cry like I have never before cried over a video game.
I've never really cried in a game but the Xenoblade games are sometihng that I hold close to my heart. To see the end of the road to the journey I started years ago made me cry harder than I have in years
It actually brought some tears to my eyes, realizing that this was actually, finally the end. These games always succeed in wringing some tears out of my eyes. What an incredible, unforgettable journey they have taken us on.
I finished it last night… and I think I cried for 30 minutes straight
Ive only been here for 4 months.. and i still felt it.
They absolutely nailed it. This song perfectly represents Xenoblade.
Xeno*
The credits refer to this song as "Future Awaits." Composed by Yasunori Mitsuda and voiced by Joanne Hogg.
You seem to be likely to understand this...
Alvis looks identical to Lee Chaolan. I don't know why, but I love it.
@@Kookos21 He does, yes. 😄
The memory of a Small of Two Pieces is hitting me with this song omg..
Not only did Takahashi connect Gears,Saga and X into the main line series he finally got to complete the story he wanted to tell and I think this song embodies that perfectly.
This song encompasses all of what I believe to be the most major themes present in each Xenoblade Chronicles game:
XC1 and FC: Optimism
XC2: Purpose
TTGC: Community
XC3: Hope
FR: Legacy
This series means so much to me, and I thank God for giving human beings the creativity to craft such marvelous stories. Tetsuya Takahashi, Soraya Saga, Yasunori Mitsuda, Joanne Hogg, and the rest of the dev team at Monolithsoft poured their heart and soul into Xenoblade, and their effort shows.
100% man and it's stupid that a montage of cutscenes teared me up.
X is not part of this lol. that project exodus is not the same as in the chronicles X
@@mr.leroysmith7012 It actually is. They even point out the same class of transport ship leaving the planet.
@@mgreen7804 I'm sorry, man, but it just doesn't line up. There's not enough for it to be x that links back up, but a lot for saga
This song is so perfect for the story of Xenoblade, Xeno, and Takahashi himself.
All of these journeys coming to an end, but what comes ahead is a boundless world of bright possibilities.
"This New World is Boundless"
What comes ahead is being stuck on a whole different planet
Monolith Proudly Stood tall and Shook the Heavens
With the Klaus trilogy done, we cannot truly know where Takahashi will take us next. But there is one thing we can say for certain…
*It’s been a wild ride, this passage of fate.*
It saddens me how many people didn't experience this incredible series. It was a great journey.
People would rather play fortnite unfortunately. It’s too methodical and slow paced for the average zoomer or modern gamer to appreciate because it’s not shooting their brains with dopamine and stimulation every 5 seconds. Jrpgs are old school experiences that aren’t really appreciated anymore by the modern gaming mainstream audience.
@@jairekambui7738That's more true than i'd like to admit... 😭😭
@@jairekambui7738
I was one of them a few Years ago, always skipped the Cutscene, cause I wanted to continue
Then I became curious and cried at least thrice each Game
This song playing during the credits while footage of the trilogy plays was so emotional 😭😭. The xeno series has come full circle
Just like an Ouroboros fr.
Out of all the ending Xenoblade songs, this one cuts straight to my heart. The fear of taking a first step and moving to the future is articulated so well here. At the same time, there is this loving and nurturing encouragement that pushes us forward. It's beautiful. Knowing Takahashi writes the lyrics too, this feels like a personal letter from himself to the Xenoblade fans about the journey we've been on together.
I know that fear all too well. Once, I blindly rejected this series over that fear. But in my insecurity with my stance, I stepped through that door, and was rewarded with innumerable experiences better than I could have hoped for on the other side. Listening to this as the most potent vignettes of the series flashed before my eyes from behind the credits, I felt congratulated for endeavoring to broaden my horizons when I could have stayed stuck in place and ossified in my interests.
Given how much he almost gave up and struggled to tell his story i think hes also speaking directly from experience
After sitting on it for a while, I feel this is a perfect ending to Xenoblade.
(Spoilers below)
Sure, folks probably wanted to see all their favourite characters hanging out after the worlds merged, and so did I when finishing the DLC. But now that the trilogy is finished, we're leaving this world behind to go and see new ones; there's no reason for it. We know from context clues that everyone is alive; Noah and Mio meet up again after Bionis and Alrest fused together, the world has been reset to a time before Aionios was created so Shulk, Rex and the other party members are still around, and everyone is happy.
Shulk and Rex even say at the end of Future Redeemed that they're not dying, they're just going to become a part of Origin. They'll return to life once Origin restarts and they'll meet Nikol and Glimmer again someday.
I feel as though showing how life is getting on would have been WAY too fanservice-y, even for this game. This DLC only showed the cards it absolutely had to play for the story to make sense. We know that everyone is happy, there's no reason to show it.
And now it's time for something new. One final shot of the combined world; one last goodbye to this amazing trilogy before we depart for whatever Monolith has in store for us next.
Also, as I said (Spoiler for Xenosaga Episode 3)
KOS-MOS finally came back home. :)
Yeah, I mean the whole point of Xenoblade 3 is moving towards that uncertain future even if the now of everyone together seems like such a picturesque ending. Showing everything that happened would kinda sully that point, we don't need to know everything that happened, just look on towards a happy future for these characters. 3 base game already says this, but this really sells it home, I absolutely love the final shot.
Plus, leaving the question of *what* happened to everyone in the combined worlds open leaves the possibility for fics and headcanons to happen and give us that even bigger crossover of fanservice I will so proudly eat up
@@JlBUNROCK This guy knows what's up, absolutely based
Im still left with alot of questions but i am happy that everyone got their happy ending now and can live in peace
As a long time fan, thank you Takahashi for completing Perfect Works. For people who are just fans of the Xenoblade franchise, Tetsuya Takahashi has had this absolutely bonkers and massive story planned out for almost 30 years and recorded it in a book called Perfect Works. He was never able to complete it with his previous works. Xenogears was time crunched by Square Enix and overshadowed by FF7. Xenosaga didn't do very well as a series and was canned by Bandai Namco. Then was Xenoblade was originally supposed to be a stand alone game and not released in the west, but then it did release in the west due to fan demand. Then Xenoblade 2 was the core groundwork for a giant roller coaster that ended with the Future Redeemed DLC.
Xenoblade wasn't going to be released in the U.S because Nintendo of America. But it was getting a release in Europe
Little correction on the Xenoblade part. It released in Europe in 2011 but with no infos on a North American release.
14 years ago. On a whim, my dad and I bought the first game on the wii. 8 year old me was blown away from it, I didnt know why, it was just so vastly different from everything else. The music, world, designs, everything. I have grown with this series. Im 22 now, an fuck man, I rarely cry at anything, except this series. Thank you Monolith Soft.
I bought the Definive Edition on a random recommendation from a friend, and the series ended up becoming my favorite of all time.
Well, Ouroboros has bit its own tail. Xenoblade and Xenosaga have come together, Joanne Hogg going on in the back of another Xeno game.
Perfect works is over, and the first 25 years of Xeno have exited their Endless Now. Welcome to a fully unknown future, where all is possible.
Just pointing out that this is the 7th vocal track across the main trilogy and its expansions (Beyond the Sky, Drifting Souls, One Last You, A Moment of Eternity, A Step Away, Where We Belong, and now this)
Really interesting detail considering 3’s apparent obsession with the number 7 (7 party members, Lucky 7, etc.)
I mean, 7 is considered a holy number in a lot of religions, alongside 3 (3 games each with one major expansion (so 3 plot-centric expansions)).
Love all of them! Would love to see what y’all’s favorites is out of all of them. My personal favorite is a moment of eternity!
TAKAHASHI!! Calm down, sir! You’ve been cooking for years!
YOU FORGOT ABOUT TOMORROW WITH YOU
@@awsumsas Tomorrow with You doesn’t have vocals?

OFFICIAL Lyrics (Line-by-line as they appear in the credits subtitles)
You're standing at a loss
In front of a door
That's been closed for so long
With your foreseeing eyes
What do you see?
Until you open it, you cannot know
Afraid to see
What could be on the other side
Oh can't you see...
How much I feel the same as you
It seems...
We just need to let it all go free
I've seen that look before
The stare of your fearful looking eyes
That quiet voice inside, what do you hear?
Will you give up
And stay where you belong
Afraid your time
It just might take too long
And you won't know
Unless we keep on trying
Now we need the strength to carry on
[Instrumental]
Our voices might not be heard
And it doesn't matter if we fail
But if there is a future
That's where we'll set our sights
From one sure step,
We'll walk hand in hand
Just the two of us
If you feel you've got no guidance
I will always be near, right beside you
If you think you've lost your way
We will walk this path together
For our future awaits
I see you by the door
So... Just walk through
Don't take too long
'Cause everything you've said
You'll find it there...
in our future
Thanks, you truly are the bestest :)

The End of Xenoblade. It does not matter which game is your favorite or which one you hate. We must come together for this once in a lifetime moment, and see the grand finale to what is possibly the greatest jrpg series of all time. I love Xenoblade. It has taught me so much and influenced me more than anything in my journey of life thus far. I want to thank Tetsuya Takahashi for these experiences and these stories and characters that mean so much to me. I look foward to what is next in this series but, im also fine if it just ends now as it is. Together we walk foward towards the future, Finding our role in this world and moving on, even if the future seems uncertain.

The ending spiralling through the 3 games hit me so incredibly hard. It really drove home that this was the end of such a masterful trilogy.
This song puts me at ease. It's telling me that the future that is unknown can be scary, but we will not know if we don't open the door. We just need to let it go free. Face your chosen horizon, and just walk on. The entire message of Xenoblade 3 is to keep moving forward, even if we are scared, and it is okay to be scared, because everyone else is too. We are not alone. Our future awaits.

XB3's theme is actually Life, as confirmed by Takahashi.

Young and bright people will be able to change the world for the better. If they aren't given the chance, then they will fight for the opportunity.
I was 13 when I first played Xenoblade Chronicles, I'm almost 26, these game have been with me for half of my life, thank you Tetsuya Takahashi
I was 16 when I played Xenogears, and it was a completely unknown game, yet alone upcoming franchise. Blew my socks away, and was more impactful than any game prior. Only Chrono Cross came close. Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy Tactics rivaled it as well. Very cool to see Joanne Hogg back, I think the Xenogears ending theme was one of the first songs I asked my wife to listen when I met her (I was pretty drunk!)
I'm still waiting for the 60fps version to play the third Chronicles title, watched my wife play the first one (I played 75% of it, but could not take the constant battle screams, story was interesting though), she could not finish the second due to the immature concepts they had. Looking at the third one, it seems they learnt their lessons and this is the real sequel to the first Xenoblade.
@@MadViking82 XC2 redeems itself at the end when it ties in the XC1 but imho the best part of XC2 is the Blade quests, the more you do, the more colorful the cast becomes. That's the strength of the Xeno series, interaction between characters. the expansion Torna The Golden Country is also arguably better than it base game at storytelling, but yeah the third installment is a level above
Wildly cringe comment@@MadViking82
@@-lord1754 Cringe away mate! I'm solid with my own silly comments.
I respect the not giving a shit@@MadViking82
What a beautiful piece to reflect the end of the DLC and the base game, and the series. After all the struggle, all of the sacrifice, it’s all come to completion. Klaus has finally been redeemed, his error corrected at long last. And now these characters we love can live their lives with the ones they love, masters of their own destinies.
Spoilers!!!
What about Shulk and Rex? My theory is that given the fact that Joran survives the events of the base game, Shulk and Rex do as well because ultimately nothing happens in Aionos. Same could be said for Pyra and Mythra as the Oruoboros Knuckles didn't need to be made.
@@conallohaodain7921 Everything that happens within xenoblade 3 essentially happens inside a simulation of sorts made by the origin right? So the shulk and rex here are also simulations I think? That should mean their real selves will be remade as planned right after the worlds separate and merge again.
Both shulk and rex said they would meet nikol and glimmer again. That they were just going away for a short bit. It's been confirmed that they will also get their happy endings with the people they know and love.
@@conallohaodain7921 Yes. They all are asleep on Origin.

Mitsuda is out here making music like their life depends on it and it's winning zero awards.

The way each verse represents the game being shown in the credits while also perfectly referencing the ending of the trilogy as a whole is so perfect
I love Xenoblade ... I love Xenoblade so much
What an amazing ribbon to tie up the trilogy, the messages it sent, and the way it sent them were so fantastic.
We were told that Choice and Unity are the foundations of Change
We were told to never forget the past, but never fear the change that comes from trying to make life better
We were told that individual purpose is the best way to treat our own selves better, and to make the world a better place means not to strive to change the lives of a million people, but to reach the personal dreams, and changes you wish to see in your life
And we learned that there's nothing that could be done alone that couldn't be done better together, with the perspective of our own merits.
This game series has carried so many of us through hardships, it's followed us for decades now, and has stuck close to many of our hearts. We couldn't have asked for a better director than Takahashi, nor is there a better team of people to give this story to than Monolithsoft.
From the bottom of our hearts thank you to everyone who worked on the Xenoblade Chronicles games, we are so lucky to have had you, and we cannot wait to see what's in the future ❤
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and dine with him, and he with Me.
To the one who overcomes, I will grant the right to sit with Me on My throne, just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne."
- Revelation 3:20
Growing up I was always fearful of the future. I was surrounded by a quite mean spirited southern baptist/pentecostal/eschatological rhetoric for a very long time. I've had my fair share of trauma as well. This series has always resonated with me and just hit those spiritual notes on my heart the phony feeling religion around me could never quite touch upon. I'm happy to be at a place now where I can let the past go, learning what I can from it, and embracing the future, fulling realizing I could never fathom all it could have in store for me. Thank you for such a wonderful series of games and music. It has been the only therapy that has really worked for me.
This IS Joanne Hogg, it was confirmed by the music production company
Crazy how she was at the beginning and now she’s at the very end. Man….😢😢
@@chedderman101 really fits the game's theme of Ouroboros, going full circle
@@chedderman101 end of the Klaus saga at least.. Xenoblade isn't ending.. but we will miss the cast from the first three games
She was there at the beginning, and she had proclaimed the end.
It's rare a game of massive quality ever sees the light of day.
It's even more rare when this spans to a decade long journey that never gives up to amaze us.
And it's the very most rare when all this also culminates into one perfect ending point for the whole tale.
The Xenofranchise managed to just do that. An achievement that probably doesn't even occur once in a lifetime, but only once in a millenium.
Bravo and kudos to that, Monolith Soft and Tetsuya Takahashi for achieving this!
And I will be forever grateful you shared this epic journey with the rest of the world!
got into this franchise because of XB3, when it got announced I was interested for sure. I knew about these games before XB3, by seeing them on RUclips and such, I had money to spend and bought XB1 and XB2+Torna and fell in love with the beautiful worlds before me. I tried my best to beat each game before XB3 came out, and my hype just kept getting higher as trailers came, and as I progressed through each game. Before Xenoblade I was having a really tough time, One of my Grandparents died, I was going through a breakup, and my best friend was moving away indefinitely, all this led to my grades in school going down and it was just horrible especially since I failed to give a proper goodbye to each. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 came out and like usual I loved each moment of it, I actually cried during the cutscene when they're all interlinking against Moebius K while "The Weight of Life" played. During the fight with O and P, when Mio had her speech I was left really impacted by it. Chapters 5-6 had me bawling and had me depressed the rest of the night, still can't ever watch the prison cutscene without crying, I actually remember calling up one of my friends while not thinking and crying to them. I beat the game the next day, the fight against Z was very fun, and then being hit with the emotional damage of everyone saying goodbye to each other.
I beat Future Redeemed two days ago, I loved it, seeing Shulk and Rex was very good, I warmed up to Matthew really early on, and loved A from the start, I loved all the characters to be honest.
The ending had me smiling from ear to ear, I cried a bit when Shulk, Rex, and A left off to keep Aionios afloat. When the credits came on and I saw cutscenes from all the games, it was safe to say there were tears to be had!
I love Xenoblade Chronicles so much, it is my favorite videogame franchise without a doubt!
It has become an inspiration for me, and it has definitely helped me through my toughest times
Thank you, Shulk, Rex, Lora+Jin, Noah, Matthew, and even Elma (even though I haven't played X)
for bringing me on these wonderful journeys, you've really taught me valuable lessons
a real thank you goes to Takahashi for making these games happen, his stories will always make me emotional,
I am so excited for what he has in store for the future that awaits.
A beautiful end to the best RPG series of all time. Thank you, Tetsuya Takahashi. For everything.
Well, one saga of the best RPG series of all time, anyway.
The flutes went so hard when it got the XB3 section. Like the game hasn't been a year old, yet it feels like it's been a long time. And now it's time to send it off towards a new, unknown future.
This has to be one if not the best ending theme...
I haven't had time to finish the DLC yet, but I just read today that Yasunori Mitsuda brought back Joanne Hogg for the ending theme. I knocked over small children and old ladies as I rushed to RUclips to hear it.
Tears streaming down my face. It has been 25 years since Xenogears and 21 since Xenosaga Ep. 1, and hearing her once again is the most perfect and fitting sendoff for the Xenoblade trilogy imaginable. Thank you, Takahashi! And thank you, Yasunori Mitsuda and Joanne Hogg!
Wait until you see the ending.
A good advice: A box full of handkerchiefs won't be enough. Keep a towel at the ready....or better yet, two. Big ones!
I heard that Mitsuda even cried when he got Joanne Hogg to work with him again
God DAMNIT DUDE, I wish Etika was still alive to cry to this... It's all he could've ever wanted... 😭😭
Looking back, this song and the game as a whole really got me through tough times. Rarely does a game give me such impact.
Never has a videogame series made me feel the same way that Xenoblade has. Such an incredible franchise.
Even after creating the perfect world for themself, human yet desired beyond...
I feel that this song is not about the story of the game, but about Takahashi and his Perfect Works finally being told as he always wanted since Xenogears.
I get the feeling that it’s a bit of both.
Takahashi’s 25+ year long struggle is finally over, but at the same time.
The future is now very bright for both him and the people of Xenoblade’s worlds.
Takahashi’s journey is a real life example of how perseverance could move mountains.
I literally cannot respect him more than I already do.
The flutes go so hard in the second half of this song jesus christ. I love it
I cannot express how happy I am that Joanne Hogg came back. It feels like we’ve come full circle from Xenogears.
The fact that this song is a capstone to the xenoblade series and kind of one to the xeno series as a whole, its crazy that Takahashi got the ending he wanted. I guess you could say it was the culmination of years of t̶r̶a̶i̶n̶i̶n̶g̶ storytelling.
3:27 Straight from Xenogears
I’m eternally grateful to this trilogy. Thanks for the memories.
Those flutes make this my favorite ending theme, the voice of Joanne Hogg paired with woodwinds again after so long touched my heart 1:50
those first 6 seconds are absolutely a reference to “Kokoro” melody as well, when the uilleann pipes kick in.
hi oomf
@@faefulmelia1621 OMG HIII
Melly jumpscare
"If you feel you've got no guidance, I will always be near, right beside you"
This specific lyric right here just hits so hard for me, every time I get to it its like a shotgun blast of good emotions. As someone who tries my best to be there for the ones I love and very much appreciates anyone who does the same in return it just hits a little close to home.
The flute plays the off-seeing theme from the main game of Xenoblade 3.
They are literally doing an off-seeing for the entire trilogy.
my favorite part of Joanne Hogg singing this is it makes Xeno itself an Ouroboros. which is even more fitting when what Fei and Elly wanted was their own Endless Now together and that's what was obtained in Xenogears, why else would the ending song be called "Moebius"?
Noah and Mio did the thing the Contact and the Antitype couldn't do, let each other go.
I just finished playing Xenogears....I thought that flute was a reference to offseers when I first heard this, boy was I wrong🥲 I love this series
Tears in my eyes listening to this. It's been an amazing ride through 3 awesome games. Can't thank monolith enough for making these, the english voice cast for giving the games their own (very british) charm and the community for fighting to get them to the west. The story and characters in Xenoblade Chronicles will always stay with me.
They went all out with this ending
Fitting for the end of the trilogy
That leitmotif from Xenogears at the end....fuck....
Xenoblade 3 itself had an overlaying theme of circles with the flame clock design, the Ourobouros theme, the tutorial battle music showing up again in the final dungeon, the world map being one big circle...
...and then they even connect the ending with the VERY beginning of it all again....in the music as well as in the ending scene....
@@Justforvisit God.....
I'm gonna miss these characters, man. From here on is a new beginning for Xenoblade.
we reached 1M guys, be proud
When I saw moments from all 3 games appear with the main swords of each game in the background when the credits started rolling, I couldn’t control my eyes from leaking..😢
Not only did this song made me tear up, but it made me think about the memories I have around this franchise. Xenoblade 2 was my first game, but it also came in a point in my life where I was literally really just unhappy. Unfortunately, I’m experiencing this again, but this time, I am strong enough to keep going. Xenoblade has helped me learn many valuable lessons. Thank you MonolithSoft and Nintendo. 💙
Kokoro from Xenosaga I was one of my favorite songs of all time, so hearing Joanne Hogg again, especially with the flute! Man, this really brought my childhood back.
The track build-up at 2:25 reminds me of Kokoro, just when KOSMOS is back on the Elsa after saving it.
I feel I haven't said it enough so....
Thank you Monolith Soft.
Oh yes, damn right!
Thank you Monolith Soft for this outstanding masterwork and that Tanaka-san never gave up on his vision!
It payed out massively in the end!
Ending credits felt like KOS-MOS reviewing the events of xenoblade chronicles while hanging out in space.
To think if I never picked up Breath of the Wild, I would have never realized Xenoblade 2 existed…
Thanks for the wild ride Takahashi.
Xenoblade Chronicles has accompanied me through so many hardships, my time with this series have been some of my dearest memories, seeing this finally come to an end is such a bittersweet feeling. Thank you Monolithsoft for 13 years of service, I look forward to what they do next with the series
i fucking love xenoblade, thank you takahashi.
I can't stop listening to it despite feeling like crying every time.
After all this time
We can truly, definitely say that these really were
The Xenoblade Chronicles.
Shut up Reyn..but yeah you're right.
@@neopolitan2826 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Its sad to see this trilogy end, but with every ending comes a new beggining, maybe we will see some of these characters again, maybe not (canonically at least) but we can all be certain it was worth it, thank you takahashi, for the game that made me get out of my comfort zone and try new media i would have never given the chance before, to experience so many other worlds i would have never known before, thank you for these wonderful memories, thank you for this franchise, and most importantly, thank you for playing a part at making the person i am today, however small. Onwards towards the future, whatever it may bring
This song combined with the montage of all the games as well as the fact this is the end of Xenoblade thus far made me cry the hardest I have ever cried. And that's saying something considering how high the bar has been set with the previous games, especially 'Where We Belong' from 3.
I just love Xenoblade so much.
The reveal at the end of the final cutscene, that Shulk ,Rex, and A got to set the worlds to rights because the efforts of Matthew, Glimmer, Na'El, and Nikol, that the Queens Melia and Nia gave their hope to Noah, Mio, Lanz, Sena, Eunie, and Taion, and that all the effort of Reyn, Fiora, Sharla, Dunban, Riki, Morag, Tora, Zeke, and even the Vandhams all got to pay off... too perfect.
The melancholy of this song feels less like the Xeno title songs that came before and more like something even further back in time, something that feels almost primeval, like a memory of your early childhood that words cannot even describe.
I can see it clear as day
"You knew it all along, didn't you?"
This song was perfect it in bodies everything happened. I cried though the final cutscene and credits. It was a tearful ending as per any XBC
Spoiler below
I went back to the Main story and went back to the statues of the 6 founders. It was heartbreaking and heartwarming to fully understand how glimmer and Nikle lived to age 80 despite there origins. Rex, Shulk, and A will always live in my heart. A will always be a founder to me 😢
After the reboot of Origin, Shulk and Rex would meet them again. They kept their promise.
@@TheSpaceking12 tears of joy 🥹
@@kittymae7019 A didn't do any tinkering with the Ouroboros Stone though. It's pretty heavily hinted at that the 7th Founder is Riku.
@@Justforvisit yeah you mean the ending scene where Matthew says all their names right?
@@Justforvisit Riku probably in part chose to not have his statue because of A. The obvious explanation of course is "devs hiding Riku lived that long," but in universe one of the reasons is likely A's contributions.
Just finished the game, and this is the perfect capstone to it all.
You mean like a Perfect Work?
i really like how this song and dlc not only concluded the blade series, but gave nods and redemption to gears/saga whilst still leaving the future open to many different things whether its xenoblade or another xeno game
This is my favorite Xenoblade Ending song.
You can just feel the emotions this song is trying to convey and it makes your eyes water if you think about it too long. it starts slowly without much impact then it begins to slap you, VERY HARD TOO, its like a series of waves that get stronger and stronger, each toppling you down.
This is the perfect ending to end the Klaus saga.
I'm so interested in what comes next
...No matter what Comes next, whatever it is that Monolith Soft will make that will tug at my heartstrings once more...
The Klaus arc of the Xeno franchise will stay near and dear to my heart.
This has been an amazing journey and I'm glad I have been here to witness it.
This song is perfect when you need to have a good cry... then feel hopeful about the future.
I just finished this last night. Wow, I had a blast with XC3 (all Xenoblade games really, but 3 was by far my favorite) and FR was all and more than I could have imagined. What an incredible journey, and a powerful way to end it. Mind blown. Hats off to you Monolith.
100%'d the game. I feel like this dlc made me appreciate the base game a lot more. The core themes of the status-quo and who decides the future and whether thats right or not. Takahashi Finally got to tell his perfect works. Ties all the games, and I do mean all, with a nice bow. It answered a lot of continuity questions and even gave slight nudges as to what happened to and what was certain things in base 3.
Also, if you sync up base game + dlc ending credits they match almost 1-to-1. Klaus saga was great, cant wait to see if the next is a direct continuation or takes place millennials in the future.
Plus the theme of what people leave behind when they die in 3 hits so much harder
It's not as good as it could've been but Takahashi and his team finally made something special and made it a strong commercial success, they learned from their failures and now the future for them looks brighter than ever, just like in their Xenoblade games, fittingly enough.
I'm super happy for the people that have stuck around since Xenogears.
I was in the apparent minority who didn't care much for the base game. There were just too many unanswered questions about how it fit into the trilogy. But this DLC focused entirely on everything I spent the base game wanting to know more about, and now everything feels complete and cohesive and satisfying. I did not expect to enjoy the DLC so much more than I enjoyed the main game, but I agree with your comment; it definitely helps you to appreciate the main game a lot more.
@@patrickprevenas7018 YES, exactly my thoughts too. Future Redeemed is exactly what I wanted Xenoblade Chronicles 3 to be. I'm glad that we have both though, makes me appreciate the base game more after this DLC.
@@ultimatedumbass4640 In hindsight, I definitely think they made the right call saving the fanservice and lore connectivity for the DLC, since XC3 wouldn't have had its own distinct identity if all that stuff was in the base game.
I dunno why but that last part with the shinobue flute hit hard
Because the final song of Xenogears just ends with the very same tune....and the lyrics are sung by the same singer....
...now if that's not completing the circle to its fullest then I don't know what is
@@Justforvisit Yes, it hadn't dawned on me that it really is the end of the "Klaus" saga. We might not see XC1-3 gangs in future games, and that's a bittersweet thought. Seeing the worlds properly merge and Kos-mos arriving to new Jerusalem (maybe) is enough closure.
