Hello there, my name is Gabriel and I play the character of young Noah in Xenoblade 3. It's AWESOME to see my character, to actually hear my voice and, to see the finished product! It's been an absolute privilege to be involved in this and it's VERY exciting to see everything come together in this way.

At the end of the day, the only thing you truly need to know is: Let's begin the experiment

To clear up a few potentially confusing points, Mumkhar was originally a ally of Dunban during the original Mechon invasion and abandoned his comrades in the middle of battle due to cowardice. He was apparently killed by the enemy not long after. Also, the reason that the Monado was unable to harm Face Mechons was due to them having sentient beings piloting them and until Zanza unlocked it’s full power it could harm sentient beings

Man, seeing the recap of XC2 after not remembering much and not playing it for nearly 3 and a half years reminds me how much I loved that game when I played it

You included the "That's Dumban over there!" meme, you absolute legends.

That's a nice summary of everything. But this is probably better for people who have already played the games and want a recap, rather than someone new lol. Just a lot of information to take in, yet at the same time not enough to fully understand it all. But it's great as a refresher

This is great. A few minor things: at the end of XC1 Zanza isn’t floating in space. He’s in a memory world of sorts built with memories he holds from the world he originated from. When the party runs by our familiar Solar System planets, it’s because they’re part of Zanza’s memory. Also, Zanza is technically a demiurge character rather than a god. A few recaps like this suggest that the AI Ontos just wandered into the XC1 universe once all the adventuring had already started and people were living on Titans. Actually Klaus and Galea’s souls were just existing in that world until Ontos arrived and allowed both of them to access some of the power of the Conduit/Zohar through him. That’s the whole point of the Monados. Yes it’s all about Gnosticism but they’re also literally access keys to Ontos power. So in summary, conduit can access other universes and can provide extremely high energies and essentially shape the world. Ontos can tap into that power. Ontos gifts the two souls of the scientists with a Monado each, a key that lets them access power through Ontos. This allows them to create Titan bodies, create life in this world, and act as though they are gods. The recap suggests that Klaus became a god simply by finding himself (or half of himself) in that world. Ontos gifted them the power of gods. Ontos then lived alongside many characters as Alvis.

The main thing you need to know is that that's dunban over there.

I already know absolutely everything about this incredible series but I'm gonna watch this anyways because these games mean so much to me

I already know every single detail about this series but I’m going to watch this anyways because I can’t get enough info!

Thank you for making this video. I had planned to play XC1 and 2 again for a refresher before diving into 3 but never having the time to do so. But with you getting out of your way to make this video, you made it easier to dive into it and get myself reminded on all of the events thus far. Amazing video and thanks again.

Something interesting to note as I play through 3: The arts used by classes native to Keves have timed recharges and circular icons like arts from the first game, while the arts used by classes native to Agnus have triangular icons and recharges based on auto-attacks like in the second game. This leads me to believe early on that Kevesi are the descendants of the Homs, High Entia, and Machina (Noah looks like a Homs, Eunie a High Entia, and Lanz sort of like a Machina), while the Agnians are the descendants of humans, Gormotti, and Blades (Mio's cat ears, Sena's fiery hair i guess). I type all this out knowing full well the ending of the game might reveal the answer to me. But still this is my hunch so far

They say the Xenosaga games arent involved and they are in their own universe. Which makes sense. But the discovery of the conduit(Zohar) in Africa is literally the first scene in Xenosaga 1

THATS DUNBAN OVER THERE

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is suppose to be a lot more serious with a little laughter here and there but I'm to cry all the same especially if Mio Dies before/around the final battle 😢💔😭. Mio has already touched my heart even before the game releases.

Xenoblade 1 and Xenoblade 2 are probably my fav games of their respective generations so to say the least I'm looking forward to 3.

That sure was Dunban over there

The Monado is red, Mythra has golden hair, 27:20

27:20 its funny how he left *thats dunban over there* in the video

27:20 YESSSSSSS THE MEME! “That’s Dunban over there!”

That’s a good recap over there! :)

wow good job I've seen plenty of these recaps that are not as in-depth as this be over an hour

Rip Xenoblade X, your only problem was that you were on the Wii u

Based on these summaries, I expect to be very confused when I play 3.

This recap was seriously in depth with how much content was gone over, like 200 hours of gameplay. Amazing work !

Coming back after I'm done replaying this amazing series in its entirety almost done with 2 :D

This’ll be the first time I watch a series recapped video when I’ve already played the series. Hyped to finally be on this side of the comment section

Man, truly some of the finest storytelling out there. Currently playing through the third one and loving it. I'm so hyped to see, how it all connects

Amazing recap although you should had at least mention that Alvis is Ontos somewhere or connect him with Malos due to both of them having a Monado or explain how Ontos is basically the universe for Xenoblade Chronicles 1. Yet again it not that hard to connect the dots lol. Thanks for the beautiful recap.

Riki, this year's heropon, somehow all-time best dad

I need chronicles X on the switch asap

PRO TIP: this is REALLY nice, but not a substitute for playing these AMAZING GAMES please, if you want to experience an incredible journey, do yourself a favor, and PLAY THEM. come back to this video when you have, we will all be waiting for you, with open arms. the xenoblade community loves new people, “and we’ll walk together, hand in hand, towards a new future:” xenoblade 3.

Excellently done video! A great summary of everything that's happened in the series so far.

Man, I love these stories. Great job with this recap, can't wait for 3!

Truly impressed by this summary. 👏 amazing! Even though I'm caught up, I really enjoyed this video from a "previously on" perspective so very much. Thank you!

That’s Dunban over there!

Great video, this review was very well made and helped me refresh my memory. Wanted to have a recap of 1 and 2 since I just finished Xenoblade 3 and am now anxiously awaiting futures redeemed.

This was a really good recap. I really enjoyed how informative it was because it's been so long since I last played XC and XC2. Thank you so much!

That's Dunban over there lol

27:20 I can't believe you guys did it

Frickin Garbulio

I need the Aegis in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, it would be incredible to see Pyra, Mythra and Alvis again.

Got the game today and had to watch this first. Kept up for the most part. Got kinda weird with 1, but I'm good to go now. Thanks!

Great and very much appreciated recap in preparation for XC3! I replayed all of the games when Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition came out a couple years ago.

Much needed. Thank you! Torna is soooo good.

The most shocking part in all these games is seeing Tyrea fly away using her high entia head wings in an end game side quest. I swear I was like 95% done with the game when that happened and it blew my mind. I still haven't recovered from the fact they can actually fly.

I love how, throughout the video, there was no game audio whatsoever... except Shulk saying, "That's Dunban over there!"😂😂😂

One day, Xeno series recap, one day.

A small point, Xenoblade Chronicles X makes very specific references to the Heropon, the Monado and Frontier Village. It’s also said that the Nopon in X are the only true natives to Mira. With Xenoblade 3’s smashing together of worlds (and what’s, for all intents and purposes, a Lifehold) I wouldn’t rule out that X is a lot more connected to 1, 2 and 3 than we assumed.

So many great memories...I want to replay X2 but doubt I can spare 100 hrs before X3. This recap is perfect !

Awesome video! I never did beat XC1, but played and beat XC2 + DLC. So this recap was perfect for getting all the facts straight to play XC3!

Perfect vid for me. Just wanted a brief recap to remind me of these amazing games.

Was waiting very patiently for this video

This is the youtuber macca! Discussing this video 😱

I dont know if Im the only one, but I have over 200 hours in each Xenoblade game and I still learned so much from this video! Thanks

27:21 THAT'S DUNBAN OVER THERE

Was nice to hear all the beautiful music again

i really needed this refresher, specially for torna. its been a loong time

Jesus, that's alot of names to remember.

I'll give this a listen before XC3 I'm looking forward to jumping in!

Thanks Macca!

This video is right on time!

26 hours in and now i started to slow down a bit and take a closer look on everything. grass land armus and frogs blow me away. this game is fking beutiful

Thanks, that was a much needed refresher on this series

I've watched about four of these in an effort to understand what the hell I just played, and this is by far the best one.

Perfect video for me;never finished the 2nd one,and got 3rd preorder 🤣

Just a few days remain till we can play xenoblade 3 and I seriously can't wait! I'm excited to try out all the new technics and whatnot. I'm still not quite used to Lanz voice though ngl I thought it'd be alot deeper but I'll get used to it as I play through

Xenoblade 3 is hitting HARD after playing the other titles. I highly suggest to everyone to finish 1 and 2 before playing 3

Good idea!

Thank you!

Great summary and thank you! I wasn’t able to finish Xenoblade Chronicles 2 because I wound up in a place in the game I just couldn’t get out of. And then other games came out and I just couldn’t get back in to it. I didn’t even bother getting Torna: The Golden Country because of that so it’s great finally getting to see the endings to those and how everything fits together! Looking forward to XC3 coming out, was able to get the Special Edition after a lot of stress the second time around. Hopefully I won’t get stuck this time around.

The most peak franchise to ever grace the gaming industry

I played through XbC1 on Wii back in 2012, then played XbC2 in 2022, Torna right after, and then just finished XbC3 this month of June 2023. Now i am starting Future Redeemed, and this video is the perfect refresh of the whole storyline.

Thanks for making this! This was a great refresher!!

Great video! I’m loving XB3

I couldn't stay interested in XC1, thank you for this.

The 29th is making this month LLOONNGG 😂. I need it NNNOOOWWW!

Played XBC1 and this video has me thinking that XBC2 (and games) are incredibly more complex than the first.

I wasn't expecting a KZfaqr mostly known for Megaten to do this, but good job nothingless

Wow I wish I had played Xenoblade 2, that was so dope! Will go backwards and play the others if xenoblade 3 clicks with me.

Hey, the guy who did this video is a friend of mine! So cool!

Wow That's Amazing! Information just coded into my brain 😂 so XBlade2 is before the first game?!

It's sad that this video has so few views. It deserves Millions of views

I went into gamestop to get my physical copy of live a live when I first saw Xenoblade 3 trailer on their tv, I got such final fantasy 7 mixed with 10 vibes with using 12 combat down to how you control other characters in your party during combat. The trailer sold me I preordered 3 and bought a physical copy of 1 and 2

thanks for fantastic recap. really awesome.

The date is getting closer and closer and my hype is at an all time high I need to know what's up with thoes characters that look like melia and nia

Thank you for this refresher. I finally finished XC1 but needed to be refreshed on XC2 because that’s the one I finished first.

I arrived after playing xenoblade 3 and...OMG

Watched this mainly because I could not get into the gameplay of 2 but wanted to try 3. Holy crap this world is amazing.

Great summary!

metal face is black face in japanese for anyone wondering

One Last You still makes me cry like the first day I listened to in the ending...

0:25 man i can relate cause whew it’s such a gem

XC1 could be described as FFVII meets Evangelion. :'D

Perfect recap tbh

In this video it talks about some side quest being important to the plot do certain games but how many of these kinds of side quests are there in the games.

thx man!

Thanks, I never finished 2 so that’s great for me !

Actually there is a connection between xenoblade chronicles X and xenoblade 1 and 2 one of the main characters from X is in 2 and so is character from 1, 1 and 2 are connected and seeing as how there are mini storyline and affinity with that X character in xenoblade chronicles 2 the connection lies in simply where they warped from her world to xenoblade chronicles 2 world, if your friends comrades or aquaintance there's your connection. Kind of like if i appeared as a cameo on a tv show and became friends with the main character of that show there is my connection, even in the main storyline your there in xenoblade chronicles 2 but as a nakama comrade like all the other rare blades that weren't exactly in the main storyline but had mini storyline of their own.
