- Xenoblade Chronicles is an amazing game, but you know what would make it better? If we turned it into Halo. Recently, I streamed an entire playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles, but in first-person mode. How did it go? See for yourself!

I used first person mode ALL the time in this game! Not for combat, because I don't hate myself, but when I was just exploring the world, it adds so much immersion to the experience. Everything is just so huge when you do it!
You see it actually makes thematic sense sense for Riki to face off against Dickson, his weapon in phase 1 is very similar to Kino’s gunberry in Future Connected, what is this “backstory with Shulk and Dunban” you speak of?
Oh is this what those “Xenoblade but if it were actually Halo” Twitch notifications were? I just assumed it was a meme and you were literally just playing Halo
You know, I'm now realizing that my meme-y stream notifications might have a greater effect than I originally thought LOL
Editor’s Note: I actually tried disengaging, just standing there, and letting the M-71 kill me, but it just refused to do so! I think Sharla got all the aggro and I couldn’t take it back, so she was unkillable because of her armor. Consider that one Plan K!
Hey everyone! Thanks so much for watching! This challenge run style video is new for me, but I had a lot of fun piecing it together! If you'd like to see more videos like this, let me know. I could mayhaps tackle Xenoblade 2 in first-person in the future if people are interested!
I was about to say “ok now do 2”.
I would love to see both 2 and torna… and if you can maybe even X👀
@@AwakenedRAGEJustin X's mobility with first person? Zanza above that would be disorientating
Did you try to call sharla to go behind you and not attack or use arts using the battle commands by pressing ZL then down I think
@@Nelsito99 Nah, I didn't try the battle commands out. Admittedly, I'm so used to Shulk saying, "Everyone, make a run for it!" when fleeing that I didn't even think the commands would affect anything lol
Shouldn't chain attacks technically be banned as it's a gameplay section that zooms the camera out?
This was something we actually did talk about briefly in the Tephra Cave area, but I shot it down because I needed my chain attacks LOL
Also akin to Halo, assassinations in the halo games bring you to third person, so consider the chain attacks as assassinations?
Well by that logic, all cutscenes should be banned. Sure they're skipped usually anyways, but I think it shouldn't be an issue.
Kay: Oh no, I'll just get two tanks for Lorithia.
Also Kay: "IN THE EEEEEEND IT HAS TO BE THIS WAAAAAAAAYY!!!!!!!"
Melia: Making the mother of all nebulas here, Lorithia!
LOL that last line got me
You know I wasn't really feeling this new Halo Infinite campaign when I saw the announcement, but after being there for the streams I gotta say setting it on 2 titans works surprisingly well. Good on Microsoft for giving you early access. I can't wait for it to release on April 1st 2023
I'm thankful they gave me access and I think the devs really knew what they were talking about when they promised a lifespan of 10 years for the game.
lol April 1st
No way!! 2 years ago I made a video titled “why you should try Xenoblade Chronicles and in first person” - it was only a short and easy video to make, but I massively loved the extra perspective (hah) that the mode gave you as you looked at the game in an entirely new way. So this kind of video is so damn awesome for me to see!
Yeah, when I played in this manner, I tended to add what I call "the Samus strat" when in battle. Meaning, I would press whatever camera centering button combination I had to to essentially "lock-on" to the enemy. It did not take me out of first-person view at all. Oh, and I did it without a New Game + mode, so it was probably far more time consuming for me.
The true Metroid Prime experience right there. Yeah, I honestly knew that I wouldn't have the patience to do a regular, non-NG+ playthrough of this, so kudos to you for sticking that out.
I just finished Octopath recently so I appreciate the use of the music :p Didn't think the game was amazing but the music and graphics were great and the fights were kinda fun
Dude! Loved the playthrough of Haloblade, wouldn't mind more of these 'challenge runs'! Also, frontier Village in NP (Nopon-person) is very fun to see the details like how the pollen is created, transported and collected. Thank you for the great video :D
Thank you so much and agreed! One thing we noticed was how HUGE Riki’s house is, which makes sense because of all his kids. The house even extends downwards below the platform, so Riki was loaded at one point.
@@KayJulers Or maybe he took many loans 😭
It's really cool that this is possible. I immediately wondered if anybody would do this when I learned that the weapon models don't cull out when you zoom in its just so neat.
Agreed and also happy that DE allows you to get rid of practically all of the HUD elements outside of battle too, so you can take some great screenshots.
Appreciate all the editing and various games’ music clips you put into your videos! My favorite was Ace Attorney music over the plan lol
Thank you! It feels weird barely using Xenoblade music in a Xenoblade video, but I like having the songs cater the mood. Plus, it subtlety tells people what games and series I like lol
HOLY SHIT. ME AND MY FRIENDS CALL THE ENERGY SWORD THE "XENOBLADE" AND SEEING IT IN THE THUMBNAIL HIT ME LIKE A BRICK
This just popped into my youtube recommended and now I'm subscribed to your channel. This video is really well made and I hope it blows up!
i thought there was no one but me that fit in the "both obsessed with Halo AND Xenoblade" group of people. guess i was wrong and this made me very happy
Something about this video’s style struck me as somewhat familiar. Then I saw the description. All I can say is that you nailed the DougDoug Classroom vibe! Great work!
DougDoug has to have some of the most entertaining videos on the platform. I love his content and wanted to try the format with my own flavor, so I'm glad I did it justice!
Awesome video man!! Just disagree with how you say it isn’t immersive, dunno if we are playing the same game if that’s what you think
ah, this is the energy i've been looking for since Scruffy's Pikmin 2 In First Person, years ago...! this'll be a treat
"the pistol was shulk" is possibly the most Xenoblade 1 thing I've ever heard
Awesome video, greatly enjoyed the run, the editing and the use of background music (you have really great taste especially there).
In general I just wanted to say thanks for the awesome videos you are putting out, especially on the Xenoblade series. Always a treat to watch, thanks for the great work!
can you please tell me what most of them are? The background music i mean. He does have great taste but since he doesn't put the song names in the description it becomes very difficult to find them
Hey, thank you so much for the kind words! Comments like this are motivating and remind me why I enjoy doing this!
@@gustavoduarte3507 I was only able to identify some of them, leaving out all the Xenoblade music which was obviously in there.

@@KayJulers That's great to hear. You are definitely my favourite Xeno-CZcamsr out there. Glad I could motivate you a little. One can really tell how much love and afford you put into these videos!
@@uzi98mc 27:02 is It Has To Be This Way from Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
Best part of Ng+ is that you get to use whatever Monado Skin you want now. and most of all, JUNK SWORD
29:54 he says "Andrew, NO! What have you done!?" when he realizes he cheated... is KayJulers real name Andrew!?!? If so, that is AMAZING!! One of my favorite Xenoblade content creator's shares my name!? LMAO that made my day!
Xenoblade chronicles really makes you *feel* like you're really feeling it
This was worth the editing time for sure. So good
This was really entertaining! Great content as always Kay.
This is a great video! I’d love to see more of these in the future.
The editing in this video was great. Thanks for the very entertaining video!
Have been doing this on my current 100% run and I've seen so many cool details I never noticed before! 😁 Once you get used to it, I honestly think it's pretty well playable :)
interested to hear an example... do you think it helped general exp w the worldbuilding
@@nevercanyoucant I would assume so, but the battling not as much
Oh my god goats in Xenoblade. I was not expecting Overwatch League in my Xenoblade content. Lol.
If it was enough to kill the meta, surely it would be enough to kill Dickson.
@@KayJulers He never stood a chance.
Really funny and well-edited video! :D
This was essentially just a regular NG+ playthrough, so I wasn't expecting it to be worth much time... but the jokes and editing were great and I thoroughly enjoyed the video!
Eather Mines may be a weaker Area but the Boss Battle, Story and Climax were soooo freaking good 10/10 would play again
I litterally just finished rebeating this game on new game plus, seeing this at the perfect time feels great.
Zack and Wiki music holy shit man of culture
Tbh the first time I played Xenoblade it was DE and I played the first fight with Reyn and Shulk, put the camera in first person, and then put the game down for a few months
When I started playing again I didn’t think anything of it and didn’t realize until the mechonis you could adjust the camera lmaoooo
So this reminds me, I just preordained Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and a VR headset, and I'll be picking them up on the same day. It would hecking neat, seeing majestic Xenoblade areas in VR, but alas, it is not to be.
I tried a bit of this for fun in XC3 and lemme tell you, using FMJ makes it feel like a vr shooter
I beat the Lorithia fight using Dunban, Reyn, and Riki. I actually played as Dunban and just chipped down Lorithia's HP while Reyn and Riki supported each other and drew aggro from the summoned elementals. It did take a very long time though since I wasn't dealing much damage.
ah yeah I love playing in first person. Love seeing the Monado flailing around
You’re not supposed to feel like shulk which is why you can switch characters
Excellent! I love stupid challenge runs. I did a "shulkless" NG run as far as it's possible, definitely scary to not have the Monado for some fights (Makna Forest Telethia was AWFUL).
I wish you could take out party members during segments where you only have 3 or less people, otherwise I would have probably had some more interesting experiences early on.
Wow that sounds fun, but also absurdly hard. I don't think I could've pulled that off with how much I use some of the arts like Purge and Shield.
When it's just Shulk and Reyn, you could have just made it so Shulk doesn't attack. There is a down arrow on the D-Pad.
@@KayJulers Yeah the first telethia fight on the beach was nasty, had to just beef up Shulk as much as possible and wait for the mind read to wear off. Turns out the Makna boss fight Telethia has insane regen, but you can use Mind Blast and then go ham on a Melia chain attack.
It's a lot easier after those fights though! I think you could do it, you've beaten the superbosses, right? I still get stuck on those...
Congrats! My challenge is beating the game with spike damage lol. I was able to lvl 99 at chapter 7 before getting riki & then having some early powerful gear etc early on when I went to back track to fight immovable Gonzalez & Territoral Robert etc.
Definitely take that challenge as it was one heck of a good time becoming very powerful early on. I hope to find spike damage in XB3 to see if I can max early on.
I had NO idea the camera could raise. I was always annoyed at how first person views were from the character's belly button lmao.
It-it literally says on the camera controls on the side...
@@saltyralts I am illiterate, okay.
The Shulk Sword is capable of slaying god and the very mechanics of New Game+
I was playing first person in Xenoblade 2 all day yesterday... Funny coincidence~
It's admittedly a great way to view some of the smaller details in the world or just see some sweet sights!
Kay, my man. That must have been a really interesting experience. Combat must have been really annoying for positioning. But, now I almost want to do this myself. Almost. Really gives you a different sense of scale though, eh?
Funnily, when you were in Tephra Cave it almost looked like you were playing Skyrim.
I want a halo crossover with xenoblade one and two now
this is awesome! are you going to do xc2 as well?
Beautiful choice of music with the sonic, ace attorney, deltarune music etc
Also you already know i liked the vid the moment i clicked it
Looking forward to xenoblade 2 and 3 fps
I found this in my reccomended, and this is really funny because i was just planning on doing this, but then XC3 was announced so i decided to finally get XC2, and thats been using all my time, i guess i should try w/o chain attacks, or somthing else maybe, any ideas? Im thinking maybe no gems
You can do this with xenoblade X as well, you just won’t see the weapons (and can’t use skells lol) Also make sure to set your camera height to align with your head, because at that point you really understand how massive literally everything on mira is
Amazing video Kay
Not gonna lie though, seeing the Flamii... "react" to your comment about its eyes (8:42) made me laugh waaaaayyy harder than I'd like to admit
P.S. Glad to know that you've begun to understand why the Legendary Riki is truly _BESTEST Heropon_
(and that's not even counting his comically OP "stack a ton of debuffs then nuke 'em with a Say Sorry" method)
Thank you! Perhaps I have been sleeping on Riki for too long considering that I like playing the other two tanks.
I can’t wait until July 29th. Just as I did with Xenoblade 2, I will buy the expansion pass the moment it goes up for purchase on the e shop on day 1 which will allow me to install the day 1 update so when I get my physical copy in the morning, I’m fully ready to go.
I have tried this actually, up until about colony 6. Really weird fun it is
It Xenoblade had a proper first person mode I would have probably convinced my dad to try it now lol
I wish new game plus unlocked 200% movement speed.
For the Mechon M71 fight, couldn't you have just ordered Sharla to come to you and not do anything? Or does that force you to zoom in?
Finally! xenoblade content that isn't a xenoblade 3 spoiler!
Truth.
King's Field Chronicles
10:49 POV: Stanky leg
The Elder Scrolls VI: The Xenoblade Chronicles
I am a simple gamer. I hear Mystery Dungeon music, I like the video.
Love the skyrim anime mod
You know what's funny it might be strange but xenoblade and other JRPGs usually make feel more immersed. Not necessarily as the characters but I feel the environments and adventures they go on. In Xenoblade I was enchanted by the environment and felt idk weirdly immersed in it. The environments felt alive to me.. In dragon quest I always get the feeling of like being on an adventure. I can never really relate to self-inserting into a game.
May I ask why Master Chief made himself a Driver of a Trinity Core processor?
Ok it took a little while to watch the whole thing but Xenoblade FPS ft. The Beach Boys was really fun haha
It's a shame my only challenge run recommendations are for Fire Emblem Echoes, I feel like I have very few ideas for Xenoblade 1 or 2 (or even X)
I suppose you could call it the endless now 5:52
I haven't played Ethrian Odyssey but I guess this how it could be in open world. (I mean the fantasy world, monsters and so)
The SAO games even have a button for first person view. I didn't used it more than few seconds in battle because it has the same problems with this.
20:59 raisin? Lmao
Ohh that’s what you were doing on stream. I thought you were literally playing Halo
What's chapter 5 beginning ost plz
Now I don't give a shit about this game _especially since Xenoblade 3 is coming out before breath of the wild 2_ but beating a massive open world game in first person sounds epic so I will watch this video.
Does anyone know the music that was playing from 1:16 to 1:55? I can't remember where it's from and it's eating my brain
Dr. Light’s Lab from Mega Man 8!
@@KayJulers Thank you very much!
I was just thinking... "Isn't titan bazooka AOE" then YUP LMAO
That scared the hell out of me lol. I think the only reason I survived is because I activated the chain attack right before the move went off.
(Before watching) a video on a challenge run of Xenoblade Chronicles, but it is only 34 minutes. Okay, is this part one of 10 or something?
Local man uses halo as an excuse to explain xenoblade to xenoblade players
Using Zach and Wiki's OST I see!
7:00 should I put my weapons away so sharla doesn't heal me and I can die? no that would be silly
We tried, but it still couldn’t kill us for some reason! My assumption is Sharla had all the aggro from her constant heals and cause I couldn’t hit the Mechon. That was Plan K, which stood for Kill Me Please.
@@KayJulers oh dear lord
Couldn't you die to M71 by "running" but staying in attack range?
Running would have stopped the healing!
(I'm still watching, so if this gets addressed later... Wooo!)
We actually did try that strategy at one point, but for some reason it still couldn't kill us. I gave it a good few minutes, so that probably would've fallen between Plans F and Q.
I've tried playing it in first person before but the FOV is just too low to justify it.
i know you probably said it for the introduction but saying that isn't immersive is just wrong lmfao. just the music alone makes me feel like im walking on a leg, not many games can do that!
xenoblade 2 ; )
My junk… it did not cut deep enough
Since you were essentially unkillable due to Sharla, couldn't you have beaten the M71 by simply casting Speed? From watching the footage, you were able to slowly obtain Talent Gauge so you would have been able to cast Speed then use that to start damaging the M71. It might have been extremely slow, but wouldn't that have been possible?
Also Riki is the most overpowered character throughout the majority of the story. Choosing not to use him is blasphemy.
this would be a lot easier if you weren't so underleveled
I'm not gonna lie, but I kinda feel like the point of xenoblade is NOT to be immersed. Based on the story, I mean (won't spell it out bc spoilers but you know what I mean)
When you're a Nintendo fanboy and don't know jack about Halo :(
So you made the game easy just to cut "hours of grinding" that only take place at the end of the game. And it only created more problems. Okay.
