And they hardly ever say much, it's nice to let so much of the dialogue be from the Citizens, even the couple with the baby get to be in the drivers seat over our protagonists who have been driving the story forward, it's a very nice subversion

If it weren't for the Miyabi scene, I definitely would've had the flashback with N and Ms child as the favorite, 100%. Especially with more Future Redeemed context it hits harder. Part of me wishes Sena's Side Story was mandatory for the Shania content because I for sure would've had her. Shania's been my favorite 3 antagonist for the longest, only difference now is that N is tied with her

I totally get how Mio could be your favorite character. She's super in-depth and potent in just all areas. Extremely compelling and well-writtien as well without having to be so heavy-handed or disturbed by weird dev desires to only make female characters shine when people with sense know that they shine when you just write them well and naturally like any other character needs to be and they'll get the proper appreciation lol. Chapter 5 I was REALLY close to choosing the jail sequence, but I really highly hold the impact of The City on the characters and that moment was just precious all around and so many new expressions, emotions, spoken and unspoken were shown off in a manner it was too hard to pass up, plus all the things I mentioned in the video. Similar deal with the Miyabi scene but I really think Miyabi is so incredibly important not just to Mio but to the whole concept of the Offseer, view of the world, and so much more. 100% the greatest Offseer to ever live in my eyes. And I also see what you mean about N's breakdown being an honorable mention, I would've but I really had to hold myself back because I could rant so long about so many of these scenes LOL, so I had to give myself some kind of limit so the video also wouldn't be an hour long 🤐

@@MetaSF_ yeah that's fair. N's Breakdown and the end, there's no contest that Z's defeat would be the best. The ending to XB3 is my favorite moment in the entire series. Unfortunately chapter 7 could have been better written as there was just those two scenes listed and somehow X and Y don't have a cutscene after their defeat. Btw I discovered your channel yesterday because you make very good xenoblade content, as xenoblade is my favorite game series :)

I know some people didn't care for the "daily prison life" part and I'm always like, duh you're in prison it isn't supposed to be fun LOL. But I agree that whole section is super good, I'm a big Ghondor fan so even all of her words to try and inspire them even if harshly, were a treat for me. And you're completely right, this game does an excellent job not only in its characterization and expression of their selves, but also it's bigger and smaller themes that all show so well in all aspects of the game's integration whether it be main story, hero quests, side quests, or straight up battle quotes. Such a treat. Playing it I really just was hoping that by the end I'd be happy, and I really was

It means a lot to me you say so, I really put in effort to all this and I'll continue to. Really, thank you

Trust me I get where you're coming from 100% and thats absolutely an S tier scene but man, I had to follow my heart on this one 🤭. The level of respect I hold the entire concept and importance of the Offseer and their impact on the world and people are so high, it extends beyond any singular strong character or moments, it was too good to pass up. Dont worry I feel you though lol

The hardest part about this video, was trying to keep it down on the ties lol, I had one more set of a tie but cut it down, would start to put a damper on the concept imo with so many you know. But glad you like the choices and chapter 4 for SURE is dense with a myriad of moments, it's a fantastic turning point in the game. I can't blame you for the chapter 6 pick either, Noah was NOT having any of that after he got Mio back. I just got his so hard by that Miyabi scene cause I have such a high respect for the concept of the Offseer, but Chapter 6 has so much I'm surprised the Nia fanboys haven't come in the comments yet 🤐

I really would like to, I thought about doing 2 next a little differently by having what I think the best scene in the whole game is as a separate video and if people like it enough do one for every chapter like this video is formatted, 1's would for sure be the same way if people end up liking that format better. Still thinkin about it though, might do a poll

You know tge funny thing is...I had chapter 6s still set as 5 and caught it but didnt catch that one LOL. Dont apologize I appreciate you pointing it out. But I'm glad you enjoy the breakdowns, I really loved the Miyabi storyline and how much she meant for the figure of the Offseer in their world. But I totally understand still reeling from the ch5 close right into ch6 intro 🤭

@@MetaSF_ Miyabi was the hero I brought to Z so I was already fond of her but you've fully converted me into a Miyabi fan gg

@@Cochu GG, for me I had Fiona with me against Z. I love Miyabi so so much but I honestly am just as big a fan of Fiona. They're both tied for my #1 Hero. It used to be Fiona uncontested but over time Miyabi rose even more and now here we are lol

When you realize Mio having a good punch makes sense cause she's Matthew's great grandmother (well M is but you get what I mean)

@@MetaSF_ …huh.

I actually never watched Harry play XC3, I knew he streamed it but I honestly wasn't interested but I know he had to have a lot of interesting things to say. And I completely forgot I watched that trailer with the baby scene LOL, I'm pretty good about getting rid of memories if I want to. I just really appreciate them taking their time with the relationship of Noah and Mio and even others in this game, so much care
