It is technically a bit more complex then that, those worlds were never meant to exist in the first place if my observation of the basics of the plot is correct. Nyu
Precisely. The "heroes" were being pragmatic for once. They chose the harsh choice and sacrificed the worlds never meant to exist in order to secure the continued existence of mankind as a whole. Also, I believe that if they failed the test Origin was going to kill all humans anyway since he was gonna purify all the Miasma (and humans are what makes the Miasma to begin with). So they only had two choices,destroy all alternate worlds, or let every single human in existence die. And yes, the creation of the alternate worlds was humanity's faultto begin with. The Three Elder Spirits gave the Kresnik family the power of Chromatus and toldthem to Find Canaan and gain their one wish. The test was made to see if humanity could resist greed and temptation, since CHromatus users eventually go beyond their limits and end up creating an alternate world. If they had never used the power to begin with the test would have been cleared. It's similar to the whole "blood sacrifice to reach Canaan" debacle. Namco's extended information for Xillia 2 revealsthat all you had to doto reach Canaan was bring the 5 magical thingies and call Chronos. No human murdering required.
I honestly only see a bunch of snobby and board gods. They willingly created an omnicidal test that wrapped countless innocent people into the mix, creating an ever growing circle of pain... all for a test that meant absolutely nothing.
@@Blub31 I'm convinced Origin is a sociopath and maybe a pathological liar. Not only did the incredibly brutal test not make sense and mean nothing while being stacked aganist humanity (which was arguably not Origin's fault, but was something he could've predicted and he gave 0 fucks about it when he came off his sphere), but he blatantly disregards it's rules for no apparent reason. More than once. And then he says Ludger and Elle have to decide together but doesn't respect this either. Then the true "win" condition of the whole thing is to obliterate hundreds of thousands of universes. Oh, and every dimension gets to participate, but only the main one can win, everyone else can only go fuck themselves.
@@TenaciousDingo it's also ironic since Beasley's actions is not entirely bad nor good he only wanted humanity to live in peace and not be chained by divine fate wanting humanity to choose there own destiny however in return he was planning on enslaving spirit and converting them into energy and will go to great lengths to achieve his goals even if it means killing his own son speaking of which. Ludger: F***K YOU. Beasley: You. Ludger: You feel like accepting me yet? Beasley: Of your existence? Or your strength? Ludger: Both you F***king A**hole.
This game had some of the best character interaction and bonding in the whole series, especially with characters having their own episodes and stuff. Kinda felt like Symphonia's bonding. The Vesperia gang is still my favorite heroes, but the Xillia cast is also up their as my favorite tales heroes.
the one thing I liked about the ending is, right before Ludger dies, he hums the Hymn of proof to Elle, as if a father would hum a lullaby to his daughter.
UNKNOWN 666 Yeah, she came from a fractured dimension that was set far off into the future. In that timeline, ludger killed Julius and the entire party for trying to use Elle as a sacrifice, then he moved and changed his name to Victor. The beginning scene was him sending Elle to the prime dimension.
UNKNOWN 666 Yeah, ludger is definitely my favorite protagonist in the tales of series. And that’s a tough role to have with protagonists like Yuri and Velvet existing.
Im happy that Elle gets to live her life. I love the music and the drawings during the credits too. Overall this was a great game. Thanks for the playthrough, Omega!
The Tales of Xillia 2 Feel train has now docked. Please pick up your shattered emotions on the way out. Get home safely and have a nice day. For the next stop IS WACKY HIJINKS CENTRAL!
Wow, she's dressing like Ludger now.... You know, if there was a Xillia 3 with Elle as an MC, I'd play it. Even better, I hope Zestiria has Future Elle as a cameo boss.
Xillia/2 make multiple cameos in Beseria strangely. I wish they would just remaster these games and re-release them while PC games are on their new renaissance; before we lose them to the pages of obscurity.
I never truly felt connected to the Tales series until I started Xillia. I loved everything in the first game, and when I got the sequel, I couldn't be any more excited. What I didn't expect was how much I would care about Ludger and Elle. I laughed with them on good occasions, I empathized with them when they were faced with tough decisions, I wanted to keep them together, at all costs. So the ending really hurt. I wanted to cry when fractured Milla sacrificed herself, but couldn't. I wanted to cry when Victor hummed to Elle, but couldn't. I wanted to cry when Julius died, but couldn't. The only ones I felt truly mattered were Ludger and Elle. But in the end, I couldn't have both. It forces you to choose. And I chose Elle. I cried so much all throughout the credits, and cried some more when I saw her, all grown up, and everyone had moved on. I wanted Ludger to come back, somehow, even if it meant undoing all the good he did in the world, but deep down, I knew... He made the right choice. Thank you, Omega. Thank you for sharing their story for those who can't get the game. I hope you felt just as connected to the characters as I did.
When I first saw this ending... made me cry. ;_; The fact that Ludger is willing to give up his life to save Elle just made my heart melted. This is easily one my of the best, but sad, endings.
It's a choice I could never fault ludger for either. Because I would make the same one for those I love. To give them the chance at living a life worth every minute, and know it was worth making in the end.
Kinda hit me there in the heart a lil...lol Master Rollo is like "yeah I'm done with traveling with yall I pass you the VIP torch to pollo" all of that in one yawn
I got this ending yesterday. So sad :( Milla's gone, Ludger's gone. I love "happily ever after", but I think the endings of Tales of Xillia (1 and 2) are the most "realistic". So I appreciate them, even if they are so sad :'(
this was a very well done game, the story felt darker than the other games but it gave so much feeling into the characters that it made me very attached in their wellbeing, it has alot of heart and made me sad when things didnt end like i hoped it would, hope for xilla 3 but dont think they will 10/10
I just realized why I waited until Now to finally watch this ending and conclude one of my favorite stories. This WAS the end of my childhood, the timing of release, the emotions and character development that took place for all of heroes. This was the end, and I couldn't let go until now. Thank you Tales for all the memories.
Still bawling, and still would pick the normal ending over this. I understand this ending completes Ludger's character arc, but c'mon! At least in the normal ending Ludger lives and meets the woman who'd be Elle's mother.
Serious comment, thanks so much for playing the game, Omega. I don't think I'll ever have an opportunity to play any of the recent Tales series games, so being able to watch these videos, at least, really makes up for the lost chance. So, thank you.
It would be too painful at the moment. They know they can't be together until the humans and spirits have united and they've both accepted that. Jude said all he needed to when he touched his heart in that last scene.
A very sad and bittersweet ending, which in a way leads to a possible Xillia 3. Ludger, while some might now like him as a semi Silent protagonist, made a noble deal for everyone and Elle, fitting the reverse of tagline when this game came out. I like to see this return to the Xillia world again, With Xillia cast old and new, maybe find a way for Luger to come back. After finishing Xillia 1 and watching Xillia 2 in English, I hope we return to this after the next game coming out next year. So I'll be keeping a look out for Zestria next year.
I have never connected with a game as much as I have with this one. I cried so much tears for these characters. I feel so emotional and yet dead on the inside. ;______; I. Love. This. Game.
This is one of these endings in a game I just keep coming back to. It's so freaking painful, but so beautiful, and it certainly left its mark on my heart. I hum the song all the time, even 8 years later. My husband will hear me every now and then humming it to our cats when they're asleep next to us. God, I loved this game.
Bittersweet as hell but...it still gives me that warm feeling that I just can't explain. Hmmm I wonder if its because I'm an old man now with a kid? But check out God Emperor Rolo he has a heir to go along with his vast kingdom XD.
Best ending as far as I'm concerned. Usually self-sacrifice isn't handled well in games, but the choice leading to this one is very appropriate and makes perfect sense considering the events leading up to it. Julius would be proud.
I wish they will make Tales of Xillia 3 . The story is about, Elle grown up and attempts to find a way to get back the alternative Millia and Ludger~ NAMCO, just do it !!
@@Tython82 Yea my perception has changed. Next game we will have every character from Xillia 1 and 2 and Ludger somehow helps them in the final battle.
I had to stop watching the last few episodes, I have a tendency to never finish games I watch a walkthrough of.....so I grabbed as much money as I can and bought and beat this game last night. I'm glad I was able to experience this game, it was so freaking good. Thanks for the walkthrough though omega, it did entice me more to get it :D
yeah i always buy the game and watch the play through and then finish the game, my first game i didn't watch a play through in is this game and the first one, i have to say i have never felt so emotionally attached to the characters to the fact that when the fractured Milla had to be sacrificed i got a bit tear eyed, but when it came to Ludger, man the feels hit too hard, you would never imagine the main character dying that rarely happens, it was not something i expected... i thought it would end happy, but it did... just with a sacrifice... That's why i love this game!
Sooo, did Alvin take over Spirius? By Elle talking about jobs, I guess she's taken over for Ludger and is now destroying fractured dimensions, but why would Alvin be giving her those jobs? I hope we see an OVA or something for the Xillia cast set in the future after Ludger's sacrifice. Anyway, thank for the excellent vids as always, Omega!!
Alvin mentions at some point that he's thinking of trying his hand at the "Young Idol" business, and Elle's new attire does look a bit... skimpy? Could also explain why Elize was coming along too. It could also just totally be what Kurokurokun said, that Alvin takes over Spirius, I'm guessing as a sort-of "godfather" to Elle.
I wish there was an option for the wish to be '...'. That way, Ludger would stall for time until catalyst 1,000,000 formed in a fractured dimension, reversed Elle's transformation, THEN wished for no fractured dimensions.
It’s been all these years and I STILL hum The Hymn of Proof sometimes. It even makes me tear up. That’s how much this ending impacted me all these years later.
I was completly satisfied when I finished playing this, it didn't leave me with unanswered questions or a feeling that there should be a sequel. This is the best, most heartwarming and satisfying ending to a Tales game ever, and in my opinion one of the best game endings overall.
Probably the Tales series with the story that really brought out the most from each of the characters. I guess it was refreshing that TOX2 just mildly touched the usual conflict between the two territories, and focused into something new (space-time), because I've had enough of Exodus from TOX!
Shit man Ludgar had a hard fucking life. He deserves some happiness. This is probably a lot to ask, but I hope in a future tales games that they reincarnate Ludgar as the main character.
Such a sad, yet fulfilling ending. And looking at Elle, 6 years later, carrying on Ludger's legacy as a mature pre-teen. Heck, her new clothes somewhat resemble his own!
It can technically happen, make it Destiny 2 style with a mature Elle and mostly new party members. Maybe Elize can join (though she'll also be quite old for a JRPG party member), but Jude, Alvin and Leia will be too busy with their careers, Gaius will be too busy ruling, and Rowen will probably be too old.
this game was a roller coaster of emotions that i never felt in any other tales game before. im so glad i bought collectors edition of this game, but i still harbor love for symphonia (also got the collectors edition of that game) now lets hope zestiria is amazing as always. (and ill get the collectors edition of that game if possible
So I beat the game and got the normal ending because I misremembered the choices I had to make at the end. (I thought it was spam L1 and not R1) Now that I've seen this ending, I do think I like this ending much better. The game kinda forces me to since its the only ending treated as even remotely happy. But still, I do find it fitting that a game that's made a big deal about making sacrifices ends with the main character sacrificing himself. And as for the idea that saving Fractured Elle was hypocritical due to all the fractured dimensions Ludger destroyed previously, the story basically treats destroying the fractured dimensions as something that must be done. If one refers to the Earth Prime theory trope that appears in media involving multiverses, if the fractured dimensions were left alone, the prime one would die and the fractured dimensions die too with it. So it was only a matter of time for them. But saving Fractured Elle was essentially Ludger managing to save at least one person from these doomed worlds. And that, to me, is why I think this ending clinches the themes and character arcs being built up until now. Of course, once again, the game essentially forces me to think this, but looking at what I've got, I'm happy.
I prefer the normal ending where Ludher meets his future wife and they give birth to Elle, implying they can live out a normal and happy life together.
I was just watching through the last episodes just because I'll probably not play this for a good amount of time. ...Seeing Julius hum that theme hurt me a bit. Then I blew up into tears hearing Ludger singing the same tune. I cried more tears when finally Elle hums it at the end of this ending.
Honestly if they do make a sequel (and I hope they do because this story still doesn't feel finished quite yet) it would probably focus on Milla and Jude again. With Exodus dealt with the only major issue left to solve is uniting the humans and spirits. That's Jude and Milla's department.
This is the first game that ever made me feel so many feels in my WHOLE LIFE!!! I always watched playthroughs of games, but i didn't for Tales of Xillia 1 ( my laptop was broken... ) so i played from my experience, it was a nice game with a nice ending, but i actually thought that this was not gonna be as good as the first one... TOX2 is now the best game i have ever played, i have never felt so emotionally attached to the characters like this before, when fractured Milla had to be sacrificed to get prime Milla, i got a bit teary eyed, when my brother sacrificed himself to help me, Elle and the gang, i was a bit sad considering he raised Ludger... ( i mean if i was in his shoes and my sister had to sacrifice herself, that would be a damn hard decision, but also worth it to save the world ) But when Ludger had to die in this ending, i lost it.... I had more of an attachment to Elle and ludger more than anyone else, so when one of them has to die, i couldn't stop crying, i had to pause the game because the feels were just too much... i chose Ludger to die since i love Elle and i also want her to be safe, i didn't protect her just to see her die in the end, Ludger risked his life to protect her and I'm not gonna let him loose her..... Even though my mother kept telling me "You are a women, and this is just a game, GET A GRIP!!!" i literally just can't... it's just human feels right? I'm actually really happy that Elle grew up to become a wonderfull woman, she even has similar clothes to Ludger, eats tomatoes like she promised, and kept the pocket watch for god only know how long, from an 8 year old to probably 20? 18? Ain't it time for Leia, Elize, and Rowen to open the time capsule? Am i the only one that remembers?
***** This is called "True Ending" the developers are essentially telling us that this is the ending they wanted the game to go out on and all the other endings are non-canon. The rest of the choices are so inconsequential that they don't really change anything. It would be very easy to make a sequel from this.
+redoutlaw117 I don't think we need to continue this series, the ending was really well done and concluded the whole series perfectly. Anything more would only take away from this great story. Although, I wouldn't have anything against a game in the same world but with different characters, maybe with an occasional cameo from the old ones.
In retrospect, since I saved over the data from before I got too far to get this ending, I should have done this ending first. Because I want to horde grade in the easiest way possible. :X
i was challanged by a friend to watch the true ending (Aka this part only) and while i was watching it he was watching (me) how at the end tears started pouring like lakes from my eyes... it made me watch the whole thing! and it made me even more sad! Tho am not sad (i still cryed) and i can really say that ive never been happyer!
In the end luger and Julius were martyrs, we never seen elles mother, and all this for what? They should've tried to kill origin or something or the fractured dimension Victor should've killed luger and been happy with Elle Idk it's a little to sad to live luger life
i really love playing this game. i havent felt this happy to play jrpg since i saw persona 3 fes. i just a sucker for the main protagonist who willing to sacrifice his life for the world.
I guess dying is one way to get out of your giant, soul crushing debt lol
Lol,perhaps when he said i'm afraid of something else,it's his debt XD
Elle would've inherited the debt tho, sooo, poor Elle lmao
she isn't his real kid, she would inherit nothing. Not a single document of their relation exists in the prime dimension.
Considering Bisley, Rideuax, Julius and Ludger are all dead and Spirius was taken over by the united goverment... yeah I think the debt was forgotten.
Are you people saying you didn't pay off the entire debt? Well don't I feel silly.
It takes a man to painfully die and one million worlds to disappear in order to get a roughly 10-year old to eat her tomatoes........what?

Best ending as far as I'm concerned. Usually self-sacrifice isn't handled well in games, but the choice leading to this one is very appropriate and makes perfect sense considering the events leading up to it. Julius would be proud.

Alvin mentions at some point that he's thinking of trying his hand at the "Young Idol" business, and Elle's new attire does look a bit... skimpy? Could also explain why Elize was coming along too.
It could also just totally be what Kurokurokun said, that Alvin takes over Spirius, I'm guessing as a sort-of "godfather" to Elle.
All aboard the feels train!
I wish there was an option for the wish to be '...'. That way, Ludger would stall for time until catalyst 1,000,000 formed in a fractured dimension, reversed Elle's transformation, THEN wished for no fractured dimensions.
Andrew Smith If he waited, humanity would had lost as if counter hits 1000000 before the wish is made it is considered a lost for humanity.
It’s been all these years and I STILL hum The Hymn of Proof sometimes. It even makes me tear up. That’s how much this ending impacted me all these years later.
I was completly satisfied when I finished playing this, it didn't leave me with unanswered questions or a feeling that there should be a sequel. This is the best, most heartwarming and satisfying ending to a Tales game ever, and in my opinion one of the best game endings overall.
Elle's humming "for the sake of mutual proof" was a perfect close.
Probably the Tales series with the story that really brought out the most from each of the characters.
I guess it was refreshing that TOX2 just mildly touched the usual conflict between the two territories, and focused into something new (space-time), because I've had enough of Exodus from TOX!
The only ending of a game that made me shed tears :( thanks for vids Omega!
This game has actually made me feel pain in ways I wasn't prepared for.
T.T Ludger...... damn it! I promised I wouldn't cry!!
Me too dude BECAUSE I MISS my old friends from BATON ROUGE and the CHURCH WAITING FOR me
Just when I thought this game couldn't make me cry anymore, I go and watch this ending again. ;-;
25:14 fucking bursted into tears.
5 years and I know what's going to happen but this scene still makes me cry
2 years ago wtf feels like yesterday . this game is great
yeah but what would it be about? XD
yeah but it wouldnt be the same really
And now its 6 years
It would be awesome if elle had her own game.
omg she has his outfit
now i want to play as her
oh the feels are real, kinda sad though, i'll miss ludger
Shit man Ludgar had a hard fucking life. He deserves some happiness. This is probably a lot to ask, but I hope in a future tales games that they reincarnate Ludgar as the main character.
a cameo maybe
Such a sad, yet fulfilling ending. And looking at Elle, 6 years later, carrying on Ludger's legacy as a mature pre-teen. Heck, her new clothes somewhat resemble his own!
*I'M NOT CRYING I SWE-*
XILLIA 3 WHEN?
Honestly the Xillia games need another game to finish things.
@@montelhelem8707 Honestly
It can technically happen, make it Destiny 2 style with a mature Elle and mostly new party members. Maybe Elize can join (though she'll also be quite old for a JRPG party member), but Jude, Alvin and Leia will be too busy with their careers, Gaius will be too busy ruling, and Rowen will probably be too old.
This ending makes me want a ToX 3 è_é
So many tugs on my heart strings ;w;
this game was a roller coaster of emotions that i never felt in any other tales game before. im so glad i bought collectors edition of this game, but i still harbor love for symphonia (also got the collectors edition of that game) now lets hope zestiria is amazing as always. (and ill get the collectors edition of that game if possible
. . . Now I wonder what Elle's Chromatus looks like.
I predict a Sailor Moon-like transformation sequence.
Like Bisely's?
Insert Typical Username Here
Technically Bisely's was the same as Ludger's first transformation. XD
It's a joke from one of the previous videos--someone said that Bisley's transformation looked like some kinda Mahou Shoujou schtick.
She'd have armor on her twintails
just finished this game last night and got all of the endings but really though the true ending made me cry like a baby!
Rollo's being all "Man, I'm getting too old for this shit", lol.
The feels in this ending ;-;
Great playthrough as always Omega. Can't wait to see the extra stuff in english o/
So I beat the game and got the normal ending because I misremembered the choices I had to make at the end. (I thought it was spam L1 and not R1)
Now that I've seen this ending, I do think I like this ending much better. The game kinda forces me to since its the only ending treated as even remotely happy. But still, I do find it fitting that a game that's made a big deal about making sacrifices ends with the main character sacrificing himself.
And as for the idea that saving Fractured Elle was hypocritical due to all the fractured dimensions Ludger destroyed previously, the story basically treats destroying the fractured dimensions as something that must be done. If one refers to the Earth Prime theory trope that appears in media involving multiverses, if the fractured dimensions were left alone, the prime one would die and the fractured dimensions die too with it. So it was only a matter of time for them. But saving Fractured Elle was essentially Ludger managing to save at least one person from these doomed worlds.
And that, to me, is why I think this ending clinches the themes and character arcs being built up until now. Of course, once again, the game essentially forces me to think this, but looking at what I've got, I'm happy.
I prefer the normal ending where Ludher meets his future wife and they give birth to Elle, implying they can live out a normal and happy life together.
this always leaves me in tears
I want to see what Elize looks like grown up
The FEELS, oh god, all of the feels! Thanks for uploading this game Omega. I had a wonderful time experiencing it.
Just beat this game yesterday and got this ending. One of the best endings to any game I've played...they really brought the feelz with this one!
I was just watching through the last episodes just because I'll probably not play this for a good amount of time.
...Seeing Julius hum that theme hurt me a bit. Then I blew up into tears hearing Ludger singing the same tune. I cried more tears when finally Elle hums it at the end of this ending.
It would be great having a Xillia 3 either starring Elle as the Protag or one of the main characters along side with Elize a new set of cast.
Still patiently awaiting for Tales of Xillia 3 where we can play as Elle
This ending makes me cry a lot every time i see it
God. Now I want a sequel to this where Elle gets playtime. She would be such a fun character to play as.
Honestly if they do make a sequel (and I hope they do because this story still doesn't feel finished quite yet) it would probably focus on Milla and Jude again. With Exodus dealt with the only major issue left to solve is uniting the humans and spirits. That's Jude and Milla's department.
This is the first game that ever made me feel so many feels in my WHOLE LIFE!!! I always watched playthroughs of games, but i didn't for Tales of Xillia 1 ( my laptop was broken... ) so i played from my experience, it was a nice game with a nice ending, but i actually thought that this was not gonna be as good as the first one... TOX2 is now the best game i have ever played, i have never felt so emotionally attached to the characters like this before, when fractured Milla had to be sacrificed to get prime Milla, i got a bit teary eyed, when my brother sacrificed himself to help me, Elle and the gang, i was a bit sad considering he raised Ludger... ( i mean if i was in his shoes and my sister had to sacrifice herself, that would be a damn hard decision, but also worth it to save the world ) But when Ludger had to die in this ending, i lost it.... I had more of an attachment to Elle and ludger more than anyone else, so when one of them has to die, i couldn't stop crying, i had to pause the game because the feels were just too much... i chose Ludger to die since i love Elle and i also want her to be safe, i didn't protect her just to see her die in the end, Ludger risked his life to protect her and I'm not gonna let him loose her..... Even though my mother kept telling me "You are a women, and this is just a game, GET A GRIP!!!" i literally just can't... it's just human feels right?
I'm actually really happy that Elle grew up to become a wonderfull woman, she even has similar clothes to Ludger, eats tomatoes like she promised, and kept the pocket watch for god only know how long, from an 8 year old to probably 20? 18? Ain't it time for Leia, Elize, and Rowen to open the time capsule? Am i the only one that remembers?
Given how weirdly anime characters age, I wouldn't be surprised if this was only 2 or 4 years later to be honest.
***** This is called "True Ending" the developers are essentially telling us that this is the ending they wanted the game to go out on and all the other endings are non-canon. The rest of the choices are so inconsequential that they don't really change anything. It would be very easy to make a sequel from this.
God this ending is so cute. Definitely made the game feel better to me. Having rollo with her, and pollo the kitty is so wholesome. 😭
Wow this was an emotional game.
Geh... urrrg... FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELS
I love this game, and admittedly, I came here because I had the idea of putting "may I stand unshaken" here over ludger's death.
i thought i preferred the "normal" ending story line but they put so much more into this ending i now cant decide... some tears though for this one.
This is one of the most bittersweet moments I've seen in any Video game.
So now Elle is the one who has to pay Ludger monster debt??
M-my heart.... is tearing ITSELF APART!!!!!! OMG THE FEELS!!!!!!!! I CAN'T BREATH!!!!!
Me too GIRL BECAUSE I MISS my old friends from BATON ROUGE and the CHURCH WAITING FOR me
Forgot to say thanks for the play through Omega! Its been fun watching you play through this and I'm excited for when I get to play this myself :D
Man make you wonder if they make a tales of xillia 3 with Elle and a few new characters
+redoutlaw117 I don't think we need to continue this series, the ending was really well done and concluded the whole series perfectly. Anything more would only take away from this great story. Although, I wouldn't have anything against a game in the same world but with different characters, maybe with an occasional cameo from the old ones.
+v2DaBa I agree it concluded with no need for more
+redoutlaw117 I would take a sequel back to Jude and have him go through a quest to get Mila back.
Would play the hell outta that.
Or one of the Chimeriad's backstory and shtuff
redoutlaw117 i hope
The feels were too great in this game
This part made me cry .
Best character development in an RPG, Elle FINALLY respecting tomatoes
Thanks Omega, for this awesome playtrough!! Best one if seen in a while!!
In retrospect, since I saved over the data from before I got too far to get this ending, I should have done this ending first. Because I want to horde grade in the easiest way possible. :X
If Elle said, "daddy," around 17:10 I would've lost it even more, even though I know this Ludger wasn't Elle's father.
i was challanged by a friend to watch the true ending (Aka this part only)
and while i was watching it he was watching (me) how at the end tears started pouring like lakes from my eyes... it made me watch the whole thing! and it made me even more sad! Tho am not sad (i still cryed) and i can really say that ive never been happyer!
Always hits in the Feels..HARD!
In the end luger and Julius were martyrs, we never seen elles mother, and all this for what? They should've tried to kill origin or something or the fractured dimension Victor should've killed luger and been happy with Elle Idk it's a little to sad to live luger life
None of those options would have solved anything. Humanity would have been doomed if they made those choices.
i really love playing this game. i havent felt this happy to play jrpg since i saw persona 3 fes. i just a sucker for the main protagonist who willing to sacrifice his life for the world.
I gotta say, I prefer this ending then the normal one.
I'd only want an Xallia 3 because I really want to see how everyone has grown, I need answers to these questions.
i really woulda enjoyed a third game based on elles pov
