  • Title: Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition
    Composed: Yoko Shimomura
    Console: Nintendo Switch
    This is directly captured with a high bitrate. It's also blurry in-game.
    The title theme isn't remastered in this game.
    None of that really matters...

      I never played the original but one thing I was always fascinated with in this game was the title screen. It's so simple yet entrancing, from the music and it's progression to the changing time of day. If this was just the Wii version but upscaled, I wouldn't have even suspected anything different.

    You know a game is good when you can see the amount of love that went into the title screen alone. Xenoblade Chronicles’s title screen is so simple, yet so powerful. The Monado remains idle, sheathed to the ground while time passes, and an amazing soundtrack plays to tie the whole thing together. So, what are you waiting for? Wield the Monado and we can change the future together

      I agree with what your saying, but for me This seems less like the game wanting you to pick it up...and more showing you what happens after it was put down for good. Perhaps its just me, but with the music telling the story in such a heart-tugging way full of emotion but none of them really... "Positive"? It almost feels like this is the Monado's final resting place. After everything that happened, after the world was changed and everyone moved on...this is where the monado was hidden away to sleep forever. A quiet, empty field that stretches beyond the horizon with naught but a quiet breeze and flowers...along with small parts, the remains of the Monado's only true friend in the world, the one thing who believed it could be better until the very end...buried alongside it to rest together. I dunno...maybe the Monado, the True Monado...perhaps it did care for the two after all, in a way we will never understand.

    I'll admit, I got into xenoblade 6 almost seven years ago, I was 10! I never got to play the game which sucked, but I talked about it all the time with my closest friend at the time, when the 3DS remake came out I couldn't play it (didn't own the New Nintendo 3DS only the regular one) but he did. I eventually got a switch like 2 weeks ago and got the DE, and I literally had to stop and process that after all these years I had managed to get this game and I actually cried a little, So far this game is literally my favorite game I've played.

    For anyone still looking at this comment section: Xenogears was originally a final fantasy 7 story pitch. Square thought it was too dark, so they let the wife&husband couple who pitched it turn it into Xenogears. After they made it, they left square and went on to found monolith soft together and make xenosaga and Xenoblade! For bonus points, they met while they were both working on the graphic design team for Chrono trigger. Bet you didn't think you'd see this today did you?

    How?
    It's been a year and a half since I started Xenoblade Chronicles, and almost a year since I beat it, and all I can ask is "How?". How can a game with such a peaceful, simple title screen, accompanied by serine, beautiful music, turn into such a powerful, grand, and epic journey? How is it possible that music can simply make me say "That's really cool.", and then months later when I see the title screen again after beating the game, the same music that game me only a surface level reaction actively make me cry upon realizing what I had just finished playing? How is it possible that one single game hit me at with all the emotions I had felt from entire game franchises? How can I possibly look at gaming the same ever again after experiencing this game?
    No, not even this game, this trilogy. How can all three games make me say "I hate this" for the first few hours of actual gameplay, and then have me proclaim Xenoblade Chronicles as my favorite series of all time by the end?
    How?

I never finished a video game so fast, nor hsve I ever played 2 games from the same series back to back.

    The world ahead is vast - full of life and tranquility, stretching as far as the eye can see. It seems unending, which much to explore beyond its mist.
    It all seems at peace, though you may notice some flaws in its perfection. Scraps, armour...the remains of a war long past, forgotten as its remains became one with the world.
    At the heart of this world is a sword - a holy weapon, flowing with life day in and day out. Although the world moves forward, although the armour remains still, it never quite dies. It's still connected to the earth, waiting for someone to unsheathe it once more.
    Are you ready to pull it from its resting place? Are you prepared to weild it as you walk forward, through the fog that's covered the world beyond this ancient battlefield?
    There is still much to find and learn here, and this sword's lifelight may be your only guide in the fog trying to hide it all from you.
