Xenoblade Chronicles X - Chapter 12: Into the Core
At long last, we have reached the ending. There is a prerequisite mission for this, which is getting the flight unit. Since we did it way back then, we already had it for here and could go directly into the story. Sadly, recording this was an utter nightmare due to something in the game messing with the capture card, causing repeated crashing when recording the ending. As a result, I recorded it in small sections and spliced it together. Ultimately, I think this is one of the best twists I have seen in a game in a long time. And until recently when we learned of the upcoming remaster with an expanded ending, it may have remained unresolved.
As for the section itself, the final boss has a few different potential phases, so what you see here may differ from what I had. I will revisit this fight in the final video to show how much of a breeze it is when you have half decent armor. Due to the shutdown of the servers, I did not put too much effort into getting ultimate end game equipment and settled on passable stuff.
Otherwise, I was completely impressed by this game. I don't know if I can go back to the mainline series after this as the mechs made this game amazing. Sometimes traveling can be extremely tedious, but they remedied this with the flight of the mechs. For extremely sensitive areas, they could block it off with strong enemies that would require specialized gear to resolve so it can't be too game breaking. In the end, you can only break the game as much as you are willing to grind, especially since the servers are offline and I suspect there will not be fan servers rising up to replace them. I will be watching the remaster, hoping that they do not butcher things any further than they already did, and some of it may even end up being undone in the end.
