>Such beauty they hold, these tears of sorrow. But are you worthy to shed such tears? The act of mourning the dead belongs to the realm of humans. The human race, fearful in its weakness, built this world in a futile attempt to elude the abyss they call mortality. Culture…civilization…all delusions created by a powerless race, and of little use, like a barren woman. But amidst all this, you continue to exist as an unfettered soul, free from the shackles of flesh and blood… A completely pure consciousness… An eternal spiral, undefiled by impurities… a fusion of fire, breath, and spirit… What can we call you…but angels? New, unadulterated psyches… But what you lack is reality. And that is what I shall provide you with…!
I still to this day never fully understood Xenosaga
Asher Morgan
He wanted that Momo pussy.
Ryan Bell
Some parts are for free interpretation, others are fiction tributes and even when Willhem was the puppet master, he did nothing wrong.
Camden Nelson
so was his plan to get them to cancel eternal recurrence?
Was there no villain at all?
David Rodriguez
>had all 3 >3rd was still shrink wrapped, was playing through the 2nd >went to hang out with my cousins for a while >come back, some mother fucker had broken into my house and stole my ps2 and a bunch of other stuff, never finished xenosaga series, good bye Ico and .hack collection
I will never not be pissed
Brayden Lee
Of course
Jeremiah Jenkins
just emulate them lol
Thomas James
1 and 2 are cheap, good luck with the 3rd one. If I remember correctly, Ico runs better on the HD collection.
Colton Gutierrez
I'm still surprised they got away with that for two games, considering how fucking young they made her look and act in the first one. That fujoshit smokescreen from Albedo/Gaignun/Jr in front of it didn't seem nearly strong enough to divert the issue.
Shit, right after he's done with all that rape allusion in the first game, she's talking about him leaving pieces of himself inside of her. What other games have such blatent actual pedophilia going on in them?
I just emulated all 3 on my medium level laptop last summer with increased resolution 60 fps
Thomas Ramirez
She is Kos-Mos reconstructed?
Gabriel Perry
Its not about just playing them, it's about having them And I do have the HD Ico, they are based on the pal versions so the physics are off, it's not so bad in Ico but makes time attack in SotC a pain in the ass and a matter of luck
Ryan Gomez
no
not yet at least
Julian Ward
Power wise, any modern computer can do it just fine. Quit that PS2 TOO POWERFUL meme bullshit.
The official PCSX2 releases still have those problems with the shadows and battle stutter in XS3 IIRC though. I think it's actually straight on the dev builds though, or pretty close.
Tyler Stewart
No way. What's your PCSX2 build? I get stuttering, graphical and audio problems.
>Have Xenogears >Have Xenosaga 1 and 2 >Have both Xenoblades >Have both figmas >Still can't get a copy of Ep3 Someday a clueless bastard will sell it to me, I sware or probably will get a japanese copy.
David Sanders
That's fine I'd rather lick T-elos's thighs
Kevin Thompson
>of little use, like a barren woman Red pill as fuck, is Albedo our guy
Ethan Martin
user, she's a robot. She has no age.
Cooper Gonzalez
>Frailty, thy name is woman... um wow like it's 2016?????
Zachary Davis
Those aren't a function of lack of power, but problems with the emulator itself. Even then, it depends on your settings. Xenosaga 1-3 performance especially changes pretty sharply between renderer types you pick.
Adam Thomas
1 > 2 > 3
Christopher Edwards
She's a transgenic lifeform, actually. It's even stated she'll grow capable of bearing children in XS3.
Logan Ortiz
She is a realian with girl memories and emotions, also, she can age like a normal girl.
Gabriel Nelson
...
Parker Myers
I played Gears, Blade, and Blade X
How long are all three games together? Is it worth playing all of them? I heard 1 and 2 are pretty mediocre, and 3 was good.
Gavin Long
...
Isaiah Phillips
>Delusional as all hell
Yeah he is.
Hudson Gomez
Good luck nerd she's been my sole waifu since 2007
Leo Morales
>capable of bearing children in XS3 Hot.
Cooper Hernandez
Overall, 3 is the best one even if I don't really like how they abandoned ep1 and ep2 battle system and how fast shit happens.
Jose Murphy
"no"
Easton Thompson
1 is good 2 is pure shit 3 is the best
300+ hours.
Jack Edwards
wtf? when did episode 3 get expensive? i remember buying it for like 20 bucks 3 years ago.
>How long are all three games together? Without sidequests, like 100 hours >Is it worth playing all of them? of course >I heard 1 and 2 are pretty mediocre, and 3 was good. The series is not perfect and 2 has a lot a of issues but if you follow these suggestions, becomes a better game >Look for a FAQ to really understand how the battle system works >Get Medica 2 as soon as you can >Some sidequests have pretty cool rewards, read a FAQ >You can use ether when you're on a E.S battle, just change characters on your menu screen. >Never get more than 8 skills per level, is a waste. Done, 2 is now a more enjoyable game.
Caleb Foster
you have autism
Robert Ortiz
With the power of the pure black soul within me, Erde Kaiser Sigma has arrived!
Parker Ross
But were you introduced to the concept of waifu by that point? HRRRRRRRRRRM?
Jayden Long
No, but my dick was.
Mason Gray
Not him but I remember early 00s forums talking about "would you marry X character?"
Lucas Foster
Only an idiot wouldn't marry Kosmos.
I still remember the Telos Kosmos war.
Nolan Green
>I still remember the Telos Kosmos war. I still maintain the correct answer is shoving KOS-MOS's mind and soul into T-ELOS's body, as God intended.
Dylan Peterson
Well yes obviously. Our dicks are decades ahead of our silly "culture"
But that's not the exact term. Thats more of a proto waifu. Otherwise I'd have to split waifus hip between ryoko and kos-mos
Luis Collins
KOS-MOS Fiora Elma
Who is best Ro-butt?
Ryder Gomez
No you bastard. Shion made her perfect.
Austin Smith
T-elos
>implying Elma is robutt
Kayden Gomez
You know what I fucking hate? I hate it when you click an image and the size doesn't increase, shit I am surprised it didn't become smaller.
Lincoln Ward
>Kevin made her perfect. ftfy
Justin Baker
Is Kevin the most cucked man in the universe?
Luis Diaz
Elma's an ayy lmao brown sugar robutt
Anthony Morris
Longer that, user. Longer than that.
Google "anime marriage prospects". See just how deep the waifu hole goes.
Lucas Reyes
No, he only lost to KOS-MOS
Colton James
>leaves his woman with Allen fucking Ridgeway >loses his woman to Allen fucking Ridgeway of all people >kills himself after to save them
p. cucked tbqh
Matthew Bell
So we're all agreed that Xenoblade Chronicles > Xenogears > Xenosaga, right?
Nathaniel Nguyen
Gears>Saga>Blade
Aaron Russell
no
Isaiah Mitchell
I'm a Rabbi with a degree metaphysical biology, ask me anything you didn't get regarding Xenosaga.
Dominic Carter
Can we just have a peaceful Saga thread for once?
Aiden Lopez
How do I make a KOS-MOS
David Thompson
Blade Chronicles, and X, had the best battle system.
And music and story
Zachary Gray
>a Rabbi Isn't Gnosticism a sect of Christianity? Wouldn't a Priest be better for answering questions?
Ryder Carter
saga 3 had a better battle system than blade imo
X is obviously the king in that department, at least on foot
Connor Collins
You would need the soul of Mary Magdalene, an Artificial Zohar and a Android Body.
Luke Ward
I love all of them Saga has my waifu Chronicles has the best eyecandy Gears has some of the most badass moments in vidya history
Parker Perry
What would happen if Gnosis touched my wee-wee?
Mason Ramirez
You'd experience chemical castration the hard way.
Ryan Robinson
>He lost against Allen in front of everyone, included his boss >His creation killed him and them, Allen and Shion took the credit of his creation >His plan was shit and he was the most naive testament At least he wasn't Anthony Burch
Gabriel Miller
Xenosaga is filled with references to Kabbalah and the Torah. Actually, I hardly think there is a single given name to places/characters/objects that isn't a reference to religion or philosophy.
Aaron Parker
The name Allen is a reference? And Mary and Shelley took their names from Frankenstein's author.
Sebastian Green
Skell combat is pretty great, too. It's not as complex because of how some arts are can be completely missed for it, but there's a ton of strategy involved when you get flight.
Daniel Kelly
He was questioning whether Realian's as AI had the right to have the same feelings as humans.
He then went on to say that Realian's having been created outside the natural order were pure in a sense that they had not come about because of the instinct to procreate and transcend morality.
They were consciousnesses that were created to just fulfill roles and not have wills of their own, which makes them akin to angels, that existed only to serve god and lacked free will.
But because they were simply created to fulfill roles, their consciousnesses lacked the ability to comprehend the full scope of life, despite having life, since they lacked the fear of death
tl;dr AI AREN'T REAL PEOPLE, BUT BECAUSE THEY AREN'T REAL PEOPLE THEY'RE MORE PURE, SO I WISH TO DEFILE THAT PURITY
tl;dr version 2 : It's a fucking metaphor for how he wants to defile her
Anthony Phillips
>I am the infinite telomerase! I am not an anti-existence! I am the perfect chain!
What did he mean by THIS?
Thomas Long
He meant that his role wasn't that of being the destruction of UDO, but that he and UDO were intertwined. That Existence and Anti Existence do not cancel each other out but are meant to function together to form a perfect harmony.
Thomas Roberts
They censored the western release, original he cut his head off with a knife. Changing it to him violently ripping it off is just so much more confusing and brutal.
Connor Adams
Why, exactly, do most people like 1 more than 2? Is 2 just more complex?
Gavin Lee
It alludes to Andrew Ridgeley the artist behind works such as; wake me up before you go-go.
Kayden Wright
I loved the moment where he was like: What?! you mean you guys CAN'T blow your head off and regrow it???
Dominic Rivera
>I'm still surprised they got away with that for two games, Iirc they didn't, there was a huge controversy and the game got censored in the us so his hand wasn't up her pussy
Andrew Ross
That's, odd...
Joshua Sullivan
I'm surprised by how good some the VAs were in 3. Yuriev and voyager were great
