Rex: What is this? Mythra: It' called Internet lag. It makes the enemy lag for the entire fight, It only works in this scene and no implemented in the game at all. (Breaks character) THANK YOU DEVELOPERS!!!
@@filthyweebs759 I saw the cutscene, got hyped and said : "HOLY SHIT DO I GET TO USE MATRIX TECHNIQUES NOW ?" and then got dissapointed when i didn't see any tutorial.
This man proceeded to stab himself with magical scythes from his bird stand/weapon to roid himself out with life energy and then started to fisticuff some edgelords before dying in the end. If that's not a badass way to go, I don't know what is.
*Vandham dies* Akhos: "Oh please.... what a clichè *Akhos' blade loses its memory and doesn't permanently die* Akhos: "ReEEEEEE WAAAAAH U KILLY MY BLADEY WAHHHHHHHHH REEEEEE"
What? It's known at that point that blades can take anything and they'll just recover... then Mythra comes on and not only makes a blade go back to a core, but a cracked one.
Honestly, the actor fits Rex’s role perfectly, it’s just the terrible voice direction and timing of the lines that really held most of the cast behind.
Leonardo Pantano what,you dont agree that the guy you knew for less then a day(story wise) was an amazing character on par or even better than the xc1?For shame.
I think the problem people have with that is that they introduced it as something you could do and then completely forgot about it Never putting anyone into a situation where they had to do it.
Rex's VA does have a lot of eh lines, especially since we have Adam Howden as a standard, but that freaking crying, man... That shit just felt so genuine I almost cried myself.
@@maxrichards3881 its funny how Rex cant scream as well but Adam Howden's are so godlike (heh) that its way too good for the actual game models sometimes imo. But for me Rex has the better emotional moments, like when he sounds like he's crying
The dialogue was amazing but its tragic to see such powerful lines with editing that was worse than a game played in the 90s. The lip sync was so lazily done in this. Thank god for subtitles though!
A props to Malos. He is really a great antagonist, and not just another psychotic crap like other rpg villains. He showed in this scene to be very intelligent in battle, he actually gives a crap about his mates and fought vandham with respect.
i am sorry i fail to see MALOS as a great vilians, for fuck sake his name is literally EVIL, MALOS en espanol significa malo, malvado, una mala persona AKA a BAD PERSON thats so fucking dumb.
Honestly, I started tearing up because I really liked Vandham... I had a feeling someone would die during this scene because of the vocals, which are amazing. I kinda figured Vandham would be the one to kick the can, he was too much of a mentor to Rex. I actually shed a tear... * * * * * * Until Rex screamed.
I played the original Xenoblade, a true masterpiece, so it took me awhile to get used to the characters of this game, especially Tora. I was kinda forcing myself to play. They just weren't relatable. Then Vandam joins the party, and this scene happened, and finally the characters started showing some real emotion, and I enjoyed the game the rest of the way. Thanks Vandam, sorry it took you dying for me to realize how great the other characters were.
I’m currently doing a second attempt at this game. I just could not get through it the first time. Rex was boring, the voice direction was overall annoying, and the battle system wasn’t that appealing to me. I didn’t start back until Pyra/Mythra were revealed in smash. I didn’t make it far enough in my first play through to know about Mythra, so Ig I got spoiled. But this scene made me like these characters a little more. Pyra screaming Rex’s name and transforming really gave me goosebumps, even when I already knew Mythra was coming
Thank you between Vandham and Haze it's like Pyra would literally let the world end before opening up to Rex a bit...ya know kinda like later in the game.
As much as I hate rex's voice actor this scene was still pretty heavy, I was so shocked by vandham stabbing himself that it took a full 2-3 seconds before I realized what happened, almost cried too
@Muhammad Agil Ramadhan HRP i respect that i suppose, i just cant help but compare it to shulks voice though which was like perfect. Rex really struggles in emotional scenes
Bits like 9:41 are why I adore Torna's members so much. Pay attention to Malos' strike and then Akhos', if Rex decided to block instead of dodge, he would have been facing far left, with his sword in the same area and most likely locked up against Malos' weapon, and given the angle Akhos would have a very safe and easy opening. Stuff like that is something well coordinated *allies* do, and Torna is really just a bunch of friends being the bad guys and I love it.
I actually teared up after witnessing Vandham's death, on top of it he looked just like my grandfather who passed last year and was a war veteran with such a kind and disciplined heart. Even though he was framed and defamed by my former mother (his own daughter) used fake evidence and falsified and got him registered on a list in law... He forgave her despite being backstabbed, malos is just like my former mother, nihilstic and toxically selfish like this. Vandham's death is symbolism to me.
The voice actor for Vandham was amazing in this scene. I’m not sure how many times I’ve watched this scene. I havent played this game, but I am playing the dlc. This one scene made me love a character I knew nothing about. Vandham probably one of my favorite characters now.
Every last bit of this scene is amazing. From Poppi and Tora boosting out of the smoke, from Vandham's noble sacrifice, the shake of his voice as be realizes his seconds are numbered.
With certain parts from Rex, I don’t see why people say the voice acting is bad. Its the direction (or lack there of) thats awful. Nia imo has an outstanding voice, but she has no direction and her lines almost never potray how she should be feeling, thus making it sound awful. Rex has some flaws, but Im willing to bet with proper direction, some of his moments would be better. He does seem to get better as the game goes on at least.
@@heechoonyeo4762 also "and that's my role in this world!" is an amazing scream too. Honestly Rex's VA does a great job in emotional scenes, and he got so much better as the game went on. Plus, you cant tell me the dub is bad when Malos and Zeke go HARD in the dub. Honestly Rex has some bad screams here and there but I felt that he's for the most part a pretty solid actor.
It's not the voice acting I hate. It's the personality. Rex just feels like a simp and his facial expressions look cringe. Also botw link could beat him in a fight.
i automatically assumed she was a blade since she's a female character that is all covered up. blades glow a ton ya, need to cover her crystal morag is the exception
A nerd is the villain!! I can't lie I came here after seeing the Smash Brothers trailer and never really been a fan of Xenoblade but this scene makes me want to play this game
I was q little pissed because I have the original xenoblade 2 but the dlc that also had a physical release is hard to find now. And its going for 150 dollars on ebay. I feel so dumb because I had the chance to get it for 25 bucks at one point lol Anyways I do recommend them. The game can get hard to get used too but it's massive with content so it will be a good buy
The game has multiple instances of swearing. They're far and few between, but they're there. Most notably, Morag exclaims "Shit! Who gave that damn order?" at one point.
Came back to this cause felt like crying again. Vandham’s death scene is one of the all time greatest moments in the entire Xeno franchise. And then they killed yet another Vandham in XC3. Man this family deserves better.
Okay anyone saying the japanese dub is better can fight me. Sure Rex isn't that good(his main problem is he can't scream), but atleast he has his moments every now and then and he actually sounds like a 14 year old boy. Everyone else is great, Vandham's dubbing is ESPECIALLY wonderful. You can actually FEEL the emotion from him in this scene as he's begging Rex to run away.
I listened to english and japanese Tora...that made me choose english over japanese. Sure, Rex VA isn't the best but all the others are awesome...especially Nia.
i think the reason mythra can only use her beams in outdoors is because she is actualy tapping into the mechs in space and using them as a beam weapon.
Mythra has her own arftifice, “Siren” that she’s able to control at will. It’s too dangerous to use siren indoors, That’s Why you never See her use siren inside buildings.
Vandham: a character who has gone through several different selves and Xeno properties to finally manage to get into the player's party. And then he dies. A true badass.
Are you referring to Vanderkam from "Xenosaga" as one of Vandham's inspirations? I definitely see that, but in no way are the two similar in personality. I can't recall any character similar in "Xenogears" but please let me know if I'm forgetting someone...I haven't been able to actually play "Xenogears" in eons. If you care to, please enlighten me. Discussion of "Xeno" titles, especially previous ones, are far too few these days...
WAIT, you mean the other "Van"s in the "Xenoblade" titles, don't you? I'm not huge on "Xenoblade" as a successor to the other titles, but damn if this part didn't get me invested in finishing XC2 even though I bought it simply to simp for KOS-MOS. Vandham is actually quite the character. I just got through this part and sobbed. The sparse list of games that have gotten me weepy just grew....and of course it's another "Xeno" title...
This scene hits me like a ton of bricks. I knew it was coming. The guy had death written all over him and had big "temporary party member" energy. I just didn't know it would hit so hard. This one early game scene made me feel things that the entirety of XC1 didn't. I didn't think I would like this dude as much as I did and giving his life to protect some kids he just met really touched me. In that moment, that was his war. And he won. Farewell, biggipon. You may not have been with us for long, but you will never be forgotten. You were too cool for this world.
Vandham became my favorite character throughout chapter 3 and kept him in my party the entire chapter. Watching him fucking die like that pushed me on the verge of tiers. Every time I watch this cutscene makes me want to cry.
Mythra's Awakening... one of my favourite scenes in the entire game. ♥ Edit: 3 years later. Still gives me chills and makes me shed tears.. Such intense moments.
Pyra's awakening, Mythra's awakening, and her 3rd form's awakening are some of my favorite cutscenes. They seem to have parallels to the scenes in Xenosaga where KOS-MOS swoops in to save Shion at the last possible second.
@@TianarTruegard Unfortunately the Xenosaga series - with all parts that is - has never been released in Europe, which is quite funny regarding its German titles. XD So I can't comment that comparison, though it makes me long even more for a remaster. 🙈
Yes,we get it. You all don't like the voice acting. Can you shut up about it now? I opened this video to maybe find some emotional comments regarding Vandham but no,90% of it instead is "Omg,the voice acting is sooo bad."
how do you expect to people fill any fucking emotion when the game has this so fucking LOW quality DUB? this is as bad as " That whats too close, you were almost a jill sandwich" yeah is as BAD as RE 1 VA which is from fucking 1996!!! and there arent any fucking excuse when you have games like FF 15 and Persona 5 that have from perfect to good VA, heck EVEN FUCKING TALES OF Franchise have better VA than this shit, no even worse Xenoblade X has BETTTER VA and thats a game from the same company/franchise as this one and you expect people to not fucking COMPLAIN??? are you fucking DEFT or something godot?
Raul Rojas first of all you’ve done nothing but rant your view without any evidence or even specific details. Secondly, calm the bloody hell down. Unless you are one there’s no reason to be acting like a child.
Raul Rojas the dub isn't really as bad as you make it out to be. Sure it's not on the same quality as something like Persona 5, and there are definitely consistent problems with lip syncing (though to be fair that's kind of a problem with JRPG's in general rather than just this game), but there were some legitimately great performances in this game. I'm no fan of Rex by any means, especially in the more emotional scenes, but in the more laid back scenes he does a fine job. Nia has a problem with getting emotional too, but to a lesser extent, plus I like the sass the dub adds to Nia's voice (plus I find Nia's voice in Japanese to be a little too high pitched and annoying so that's an improvement). Other than them, the only legitimately bad performance is Patroka (seriously, she just REALLY doesn't know what she's doing with her lines), but at least she doesn't pop up too often in the game. Everybody else had some really good performances. Tora's dub brought youth, joy, and jolly to the character; Poppi's dub brought a great sense of innocence, dead-pan, and curiosity; Morag's dub was strong and stoic, yet also gentle and understanding; Malos' dub was wrathful and maniacal without being too over-the-top; Jin's dub was menacing, yet also distant and depressed. I could go on and on about the various performances, and I was especially impressed that Pyra and Mythra were voiced by the same VA, because even though they sound similar they have a pretty distinct feel to them. I haven't even mentioned Zeke or Vandham, two of my favorite performances by far (the energy and passion in Zeke's voice is really contagious, and Vandham absolutely NAILED that one scene at the end of chapter 3). You guys can point the finger at Rex all you want, but for every example you can give me of bad voice acting in the game, I can point to about five other instances where they did well, so people really need to chill out.
The voice acting is fine. Rex is a tad awkward here and there but other than that the only issue is the lip syncing. All of these issues probably stem from the voice actors not having a video feed and just a script to read from.
This is the first video I ever watched of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and I'm already getting nostalgia even though I started watching when Quarantine happened.
Rex: What is this?! Mythra: This is foresight, basically let's you see into the future. Rex: Wow that's really coo- Mythra: This will be the last time you use this. Rex: wtf
If i had 2 nickels for every time a Vandham with an X shaped scar dies really early in a Xenoblade game, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice
Every time I watch this, the buildup to mythra is cheesey but the ending of this battle makes me cry everytime. I love long and difficult video games that have cheesey moments, awesome moments and then moments that make you want to cry your eyes out. Graphics for the cutscenes I give a 110% out of a 100.
This was the moment I really started to get invested in the game (Well, this moment actually sealed my investment, because the moment you get in Uraya the game gets a high note). Basically this game has a very slow start, with some few things that are interested, but you're not really invested yet, at least I wasn't, until this moment that made the whole adventure in Uraya a great and enjoyable one.
Why didn’t we at least get Olethro Ruins as a stage in Smash Ultimate? It’s perfect, not spoilery enough to avoid getting in, it’s where Addam first resonated with Mythra, and where she finally broke her seal

Wow Nia at 4:55 , her true form foreshadowed, but she was too afraid to use it.
also love the part of the song in which Nia's scene played as well. it matches up perfectly
She could have took Vandham’s body, hide somewhere to save him quickly
@Colin Lange me too
No, she just couldn’t use it. Not even Poppi could rely on her ether flow with Obrona in play.
Max Richards shes a blade*
That look on Nia's face when she realises she could save Vandham, but then the fear when she realises she'd have to reveal her secret breaks my heart

He sounded so calm when he said *What?* vandham said Rex here’s another lesson for you and proceeded to stab himself
Sounds like he’s trying to be shulk

One word to describe Vandham:
Badass.
Probaly the best from 2 but nowhere near as good as anyone form one
"Another lesson for ya! Something else you can do with a blade!"
Even though this is the only time we ever see this.
Grammel12 plus it wasn't really needed for the rest of the game. There really isn't a time outside of tantal where the ether was disrupted
The Kengeki Goomba yeah and in tantal that was solved by morag and poppi having extra ether stored up
Grammel12 yeah, so really it wasn't needed. I don't think a lot of people are willing to stab themselves for a situation they can possibly avoid lol
Also, Mythra/Pneuma doesn't use Ether energy, so it wouldn't affect her.
I think the problem people have with that is that they introduced it as something you could do and then completely forgot about it
Never putting anyone into a situation where they had to do it.

I was q little pissed because I have the original xenoblade 2 but the dlc that also had a physical release is hard to find now. And its going for 150 dollars on ebay. I feel so dumb because I had the chance to get it for 25 bucks at one point lol
Anyways I do recommend them. The game can get hard to get used too but it's massive with content so it will be a good buy
I actually downloaded the game because of this scene, and music.
They actually put the word.."shit"in a Nintendo game...wow
Never mind the " Son of a bitch" in the previous scene
or malos calling vandam a bastard :P
Ruby red Rose they also say ass a bunch. This is a monolith game, it's just on a Nintendo console.
YOU LITTLE SHIT!!!
The game has multiple instances of swearing. They're far and few between, but they're there.
Most notably, Morag exclaims "Shit! Who gave that damn order?" at one point.
this game is a freaking masterpiece and yes i still get chills whenever i watch this part, so effing awesome
Bad guys: *are winning*
*Counterattack plays*
Bad guys: "Guess I'll die."
This scene made fall In love for the game. Very underrated and 100% one of the best games on Switch.
Came back to this cause felt like crying again.
Vandham’s death scene is one of the all time greatest moments in the entire Xeno franchise.
And then they killed yet another Vandham in XC3. Man this family deserves better.
Okay anyone saying the japanese dub is better can fight me. Sure Rex isn't that good(his main problem is he can't scream), but atleast he has his moments every now and then and he actually sounds like a 14 year old boy. Everyone else is great, Vandham's dubbing is ESPECIALLY wonderful. You can actually FEEL the emotion from him in this scene as he's begging Rex to run away.
Le Dapper Greninja I think the yelling is justified because Rex is still a kid and his voice isn’t fully developed
I listened to english and japanese Tora...that made me choose english over japanese. Sure, Rex VA isn't the best but all the others are awesome...especially Nia.
The english voice acting overall is horrible. I never play games in subs but i may for this game just because the voice acting is just atrocious.
Rex actually can cry pretty well
actually, i cant feel a single emotion from this pile of shit dub
Malos: "So long, kid!"
Pyra: "Reeeeeeeeeeex!"
That scene still gives me goosebumps to this day 😭
I loved the way Pyra screamed for Rex! It was so good.
i think the reason mythra can only use her beams in outdoors is because she is actualy tapping into the mechs in space and using them as a beam weapon.
sir Reinhardt yeah pretty much
Mythra has her own arftifice, “Siren” that she’s able to control at will. It’s too dangerous to use siren indoors, That’s Why you never See her use siren inside buildings.
That’s basically it. It’s like trying to fire the Hammer of Dawn indoors…literally.
Vandham: a character who has gone through several different selves and Xeno properties to finally manage to get into the player's party.
And then he dies.
A true badass.
BetweenTheFog wait what now
Are you referring to Vanderkam from "Xenosaga" as one of Vandham's inspirations? I definitely see that, but in no way are the two similar in personality. I can't recall any character similar in "Xenogears" but please let me know if I'm forgetting someone...I haven't been able to actually play "Xenogears" in eons. If you care to, please enlighten me. Discussion of "Xeno" titles, especially previous ones, are far too few these days...
WAIT, you mean the other "Van"s in the "Xenoblade" titles, don't you? I'm not huge on "Xenoblade" as a successor to the other titles, but damn if this part didn't get me invested in finishing XC2 even though I bought it simply to simp for KOS-MOS. Vandham is actually quite the character. I just got through this part and sobbed. The sparse list of games that have gotten me weepy just grew....and of course it's another "Xeno" title...
Watching this back, I still miss Vandamn, but I surprisingly also [Chapter 9 spoilers] miss Akhos. He was a good character
THIS
Oh, God, my insides twisted once I saw Tora and Poppi get launched by Malos. I find Tora very innocent and I can't bear to see him get hurt.
Poppi is way more innocent and hurt way worse considering how hard she hit the walls
When either of them get hurt it hurts my feelings. I love that pair so much
Me too. Must protecc Tora at all costs.
Innocent. Yeah. Don’t your REMEMBER Poppi’s original purpose?
I was a bit sad when obrona died
And vandam Died like a legend
Mythra scene=EPIC
Obrona voice was annoying tho
I celebrated when Obrona died because I was tired of listening to her raspy ass voice
This scene hits me like a ton of bricks. I knew it was coming. The guy had death written all over him and had big "temporary party member" energy.
I just didn't know it would hit so hard. This one early game scene made me feel things that the entirety of XC1 didn't. I didn't think I would like this dude as much as I did and giving his life to protect some kids he just met really touched me. In that moment, that was his war. And he won.
Farewell, biggipon. You may not have been with us for long, but you will never be forgotten. You were too cool for this world.
"To descend upon the world and rid it of these pests." Ironically, Aegis is latin for "protect"
I was playing this at 12/1 A.M. and I got to this part.
I cried so hard.
That part made xenoblade 2 my favorite game
Still one of the best jrpgs in history, along with the original. One day, I'll have the time to play part 3.
Vandham became my favorite character throughout chapter 3 and kept him in my party the entire chapter. Watching him fucking die like that pushed me on the verge of tiers. Every time I watch this cutscene makes me want to cry.
Here before the smash fans complain about Mythra foresight
Mythra's Awakening... one of my favourite scenes in the entire game. ♥
Edit: 3 years later. Still gives me chills and makes me shed tears.. Such intense moments.
Pyra's awakening, Mythra's awakening, and her 3rd form's awakening are some of my favorite cutscenes. They seem to have parallels to the scenes in Xenosaga where KOS-MOS swoops in to save Shion at the last possible second.
@@TianarTruegard Unfortunately the Xenosaga series - with all parts that is - has never been released in Europe, which is quite funny regarding its German titles. XD
So I can't comment that comparison, though it makes me long even more for a remaster. 🙈
this was the ONLY video game scene I ever cried at.
I reached this point a few days ago. And after actually witnessing Vandham's impact on Rex, it made this moment even more heartbreaking.
This was the first time I actually dropped tears in a videogame, the emotions of the characters and the music are so amazing in this scene
I love how The Hilbert Effect is combined with Foresight :-) so many parallels to Xenosaga/gears
Woah nice catch! Im watching this a year later and I'm just realizing this after playing the Xenosaga games.
Real men cry about this part. Rest in peace Vandham…we won’t forget ya, big man. You did good. Real good.
Yes,we get it. You all don't like the voice acting. Can you shut up about it now? I opened this video to maybe find some emotional comments regarding Vandham but no,90% of it instead is "Omg,the voice acting is sooo bad."
Jojo Stark stfu
how do you expect to people fill any fucking emotion when the game has this so fucking LOW quality DUB? this is as bad as " That whats too close, you were almost a jill sandwich" yeah is as BAD as RE 1 VA which is from fucking 1996!!! and there arent any fucking excuse when you have games like FF 15 and Persona 5 that have from perfect to good VA, heck EVEN FUCKING TALES OF Franchise have better VA than this shit, no even worse Xenoblade X has BETTTER VA and thats a game from the same company/franchise as this one and you expect people to not fucking COMPLAIN??? are you fucking DEFT or something godot?
Raul Rojas first of all you’ve done nothing but rant your view without any evidence or even specific details.
Secondly, calm the bloody hell down. Unless you are one there’s no reason to be acting like a child.
Raul Rojas the dub isn't really as bad as you make it out to be. Sure it's not on the same quality as something like Persona 5, and there are definitely consistent problems with lip syncing (though to be fair that's kind of a problem with JRPG's in general rather than just this game), but there were some legitimately great performances in this game. I'm no fan of Rex by any means, especially in the more emotional scenes, but in the more laid back scenes he does a fine job. Nia has a problem with getting emotional too, but to a lesser extent, plus I like the sass the dub adds to Nia's voice (plus I find Nia's voice in Japanese to be a little too high pitched and annoying so that's an improvement). Other than them, the only legitimately bad performance is Patroka (seriously, she just REALLY doesn't know what she's doing with her lines), but at least she doesn't pop up too often in the game. Everybody else had some really good performances. Tora's dub brought youth, joy, and jolly to the character; Poppi's dub brought a great sense of innocence, dead-pan, and curiosity; Morag's dub was strong and stoic, yet also gentle and understanding; Malos' dub was wrathful and maniacal without being too over-the-top; Jin's dub was menacing, yet also distant and depressed. I could go on and on about the various performances, and I was especially impressed that Pyra and Mythra were voiced by the same VA, because even though they sound similar they have a pretty distinct feel to them. I haven't even mentioned Zeke or Vandham, two of my favorite performances by far (the energy and passion in Zeke's voice is really contagious, and Vandham absolutely NAILED that one scene at the end of chapter 3). You guys can point the finger at Rex all you want, but for every example you can give me of bad voice acting in the game, I can point to about five other instances where they did well, so people really need to chill out.
The voice acting is fine. Rex is a tad awkward here and there but other than that the only issue is the lip syncing.
All of these issues probably stem from the voice actors not having a video feed and just a script to read from.
This is the first video I ever watched of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and I'm already getting nostalgia even though I started watching when Quarantine happened.
At 5:03 Nia seems to be holding something.... then you only find out way later the reason
6:41 "We at Team Four Star do not condone child violence. We do however, find it extremely funny."
5:05 it's so cool seeing them hint Nia's secret
Its honoslty sad how Roc's memory of Vandham just disappeared
the music in the background make this scene so dramatic i love it
Rex: What is this?!
Mythra: This is foresight, basically let's you see into the future.
Rex: Wow that's really coo-
Mythra: This will be the last time you use this.
Rex: wtf
9:24
Rex: What is this?
Me: EPITAPH!
"behold the power of King crimson!"
I can only image daddy Rex here
I wish vandam stuck around longer and roc had more significance. Roc basically just became a glorified smash art for rex afterwards
Spoilers
*Rex is a race car*
i cried in this part of the game RIP vandham may he rest in our souls
Oh god I just noticed. 5:02.
Yea she was thinking about healing vandham
7:01 attacking in slow-mo, talks in real time.......oh shouen anime logic at its finest
If i had 2 nickels for every time a Vandham with an X shaped scar dies really early in a Xenoblade game, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice
Where women cried: titanic
Where men cried: vallient hero
where real men cried:
Vandham:run away now
Rex:proceed to attack
im glad they referenced this masterpiece of a cutscene in her smash splash screen :)
Every time I watch this, the buildup to mythra is cheesey but the ending of this battle makes me cry everytime. I love long and difficult video games that have cheesey moments, awesome moments and then moments that make you want to cry your eyes out. Graphics for the cutscenes I give a 110% out of a 100.
I think I literally can’t get over this death .
This was epic lol the music makes it even more epic
BEST SCENE in the whole game, and one of the best scenes EVER in video game history.
This was the moment I really started to get invested in the game (Well, this moment actually sealed my investment, because the moment you get in Uraya the game gets a high note). Basically this game has a very slow start, with some few things that are interested, but you're not really invested yet, at least I wasn't, until this moment that made the whole adventure in Uraya a great and enjoyable one.
I feel like this scene still should’ve been called, “Vandham pulls a Fiora!”
XD
spoiler for both games
but vandham doesnt come back like fiora
Well thanks for the spoilers😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒
EGS 2 it literally said “spoiler warning” in the first line
The9 TailedGamer not fire waifus comment
This is the scene that made me love this game
"Akhos, I don't feel so good..."
Her awakening has led her to SSBU DLC.
0:47 masterpon I don’t feel so good
when I played this game and got to here, I cried so much. 😭😭😢😖😞
The sad look on Mythra's face when she uses Siren adds so much more to this scene knowing what happened in Torna
Why didn’t we at least get Olethro Ruins as a stage in Smash Ultimate? It’s perfect, not spoilery enough to avoid getting in, it’s where Addam first resonated with Mythra, and where she finally broke her seal
I actually felt just as sad when Akhos Lost Obrona 10:32
i acutaly dident notice her core Crystal was cracked.
PennilessImp749 same
Me too
After what happened to vandham I was I really happy about that actually. Plus Akhos's Blade's VA was annoying as hell.
same here
This will *always* make me cry no matter what
I miss you Vandham, rest in peace.
