You'd like trails in the sky. The plot is slow to start but the world building is fantastic. Every npc feels like a real person much like xenogears. It's not as larger than life ad xenogears yet(I'm only partway through 2) but I'm loving it for all of the same reasons I liked xenogears.

Xenogears probably had adventure and philosophical bullshit in mind from day 1. Saga was heavier on PBS and less on adventure. Blade was heavier on adventure than on PBS.
>>
>>381130332
Product of the time. When you look at blade and especially sagas story they're pretty good. Everything else though.. the character design, music, aesthetic everything, execution, it's all fucked. Every xeno game also gets more and more afraid of adult themes and has no idea how to balance it all.

It's been a few year but I think it goes like this, Grahf is a split personality of Lacan must like Fei's Id, When Lacan made contact with the Zohar the identity Lacan died and was reincarnated as Fei. That meant Grahf was free from Lacan but was also no longer the contact which he'd need to be to kill god. When Fei was located Grahf tried to body snatch him so he could be the contact again, but Fei's dad Kahn tried to stop him, during this Fei went supernova using the Zohar's power and killed his mother who was under control by Miang and Grahf body snatched Fei's dad Kahn instead. Grahf!Kahn then dropped him off in Lahan village and the game starts like 10 years later.

Miang was the first artificial human Deus made to create life on the planet so it could eventually reap their biological mass so it could repair itself since Deus is made of biomass rather than machinery it apparently need lots of human bodies to do this. Miang was like Deus' agent who would make sure people weren't retarded and they all ended up infertile due to genetic fuckery because again all life on this planet is artificial and exists solely so Deus can fix itself. So she'd work behind the scenes and cause mass extinctions if things weren't going to plan. She can jump bodies because every woman in the world has their DNA imprinted with the sequence that allows them to become the next Miang if the current Miang should ever die. Elly on the other hand was the counter existence, the one created by the wave existence for abel so he wouldn't be alone.

Deus made humanity ~10k years before the game started after he busted out of the ship over the planet. That's why there are no fossils or evolution path found when Balthasar brings it up.

He needed bio-organic shit to reform himself into a big scary monster and I believe had God trapped within him as a power source or something. Anyway, people had Limiters inside them which kept them from becoming little monsterlings, except for Wels.

Fei and the merry band shut off the Limiters they believed were holding Humanity back or something, but fucked over like 90% of the population and resurrected Deus

I think Solaris made the limiters, which is why the heroes thought they were bad. And since the heroes had theirs removed so they could Omnigear the shit out of things, they thought everyone should have that right.

It turned out that Solaris and mostly Cain put them in so they could not fulfill humanity's true purpose of being God chow.

>and I believe had God trapped within him as a power source
Deus was disconnected from the Zohar. When they crashed the Zohar was buried deep in the arctic region of the planet while Deus was buried deep under the ocean around the equator. That's why Deus had to come up with this exceedingly convoluted plan to fix itself. So Deus had to put himself in sleep mode because it's infinite battery was on the other side of the world and a bunch of essential bits inside it were broken.

Miang is the mother to all life.

Abel and Elly were hunted down and killed by Miang and Cain (the artificial Deus created contact) so never had a chance to breed. Everyone alive now is descended from Miang. The wave existence just alters reality to reincarnate them over and over again just so they can suffer as a joke.

but how, is what confuses me
>>
>>381136561
Grahf is literally Lacan. Because Lacan was an imperfect contact due to the death of Sophia he could not fully link with the Zohar. So his body died but his partial awakening gave him the ability to possess other people among other things.

Same reason Abel and Elly were killed. He is the contact and she is the anti-type they exist in opposition of Deus will and as such must be killed.

then what's the point of using Elly at the end? sorry I forgot so much, I just tlremember Miang going gooey god form.

The anti-type is a part of the Zohar, which is Deus's power source. You need both Elly and Miang to merge with Deus to fully revive the weapon.

Part of what makes Xenogears fantastic is there are like 3 or 4 "main" antagonists/factions all out for themselves and plotting against each other. Then as the story goes on they engage in a Darwinian conflict where the stronger destroys or absorbs the weaker until in the end there is one major baddie to focus on who has risen above the others to enact his particular plan for the world.
This is a big problem with every other game that came after with "Xeno" in the title, they dumbed their stories down way too much. Never recaptured the feeling of the original.

Look, the revival process for Deus is a bunch of contrived bullshit made to flesh out the game's world and the backstory of a few main characters. It's really dumb and pointlessly convoluted when you factor in all the variables and constraints. Things start making even less sense when you realize that Deus was DESIGNED to be able to revive itself like this. Like, what the fuck? What kind of Lovecraft-worshiping lunatics made up the Galactic Federation's chief weapons engineering division?

>>381141246
What I kind of hate about Xenogears is how the villain plot lines start to suck up all the screen time in the game and lead to the mess that is disc 2. You have very few world building moments in the second disc compared disc 1 - which would be fine if most of the cast in this games wasn't so underdeveloped.

How the fuck did no one come and get their weapon after a few thousands of years of disappearing? Didn't the ship send any distress signals for help?

Deus was incredibly dangerous as witnessed in the game.
I'm guessing the Eldridge was sent to some far corner of the galaxy where Deus would be disposed of quietly.
Plus if the locations of a weapon that dangerous was publicly known someone might wanna use it for the wrong reasons.
>>
>>381143338
Maybe they thought it wasn't worth it.

Or they just decided to watch how Deus works.

>>381143529
What's it going to be like when all of a sudden an artificially generated branch of humanity fathered by some rogue super weapon that would basically be apocrypha by then suddenly develops space travel and wants to say hello to the rest of the galaxy?
>>
>>381144053
That's a great question.
>>
>>381143529
I think a space colonial expedition would have at least found the planet they've crashed onto eventually since it took 10,000 years since the crash for the in-game event to occur unless some shit happened in the interstellar world. Nobody would think someone would be hiding shit there to prevent such people to explore in that region of the galaxy.

>>381143791
This may be plausible but >>381143529 has a point of having public knowledge of the weapon being dangerous.
>>
>>381144053
Well, Deus keeps pulping them so they don't

I was hype for this, too.
>>
>>381144053
Now that you bring it up I was thinking about something similar the other day.
Xenogears never really did directly state if Deus-made Humans were any different from natural Humans like those on the Eldridge.
The only distinction I can conclude is that something must be different in the biology of Humans in Xenogears since they were created as parts for Deus and could potentially mutate.

I remember emulating it and stopped playing after about 30 mins. I always hear how good the game is but it just seemed like a run of the mill JRPG to me.

Was it good for its time or is it still good today?

The JRPG part of it isn't stellar or anything but it's high concept and goes places that few games ever touch.

>>381146882
I don't think the combat was really enough to carry the whole game. Since it does kinda boil down to using your strongest deathblows every turn for most of the game. JRPGs are a bit of an acquired taste and I really wouldn't recommend Xenogears to someone who isn't already a fan of them. Especially with all it's eccentricity. It's a great game and very unique, but I wouldn't exactly call it graceful.
>>
>>381146575
The plot starts run of the mill (doomed starting village, giant robots, wanting to kill gods) then proceeds into what the fuck is happening level about 3-5 hours in or so. Combat system is pretty good and the music but probably the only 2 saving graces of the game which carries it pretty far.

Be aware, the game takes a sharp turn in pacing into Disc 2 because of either strict deadlines or budget cuts, perhaps both or more corporate fuckery. It is essentially the best example of an unfinished game that shipped too far ahead of schedule during the PS1 generation. But man that combat design is good shit at least.
>>
>>381147146
Emulation and speed up are your friend. I don't know how anyone plays old JRPGs without them anymore. Also with this game's encounter rate it's basically a necessity.

How do you guys think an adaption of Xenogears other episodes would work?
I just can't see this one >>381137620 working too well as a regular jrpg for some reason, I think it's because Kim doesn't seem like he'd be the kind of character who would be constantly fighting in random battles.
There's also the fact that the setting is essentially WWIII which is pretty different from most jrpgs.
Maybe it would be a VN? Or an interactive adventure game with minimalist gameplay like something from telltales or project ICO?
Another good idea is a Disaster Report(Zettai Zetsumei Toshi) simulation type game with Fei and Elly trying to survive the war along with Esmerelda.

However this clip also made me feel it would've been perfect as part of a Xenogears multimedia project, and I could easily see this being made it into an OVA format.

It was more Takahashi being a first time game director biting off more than his team, mostly comprised of rookies, could handle by dreaming up this super ambitious project and then realizing half way through they wouldn't be able to pull it off. Square higher ups recommended just ending it after the escape from Solaris (When Ramsus destroys Weltall), and spending the rest of the time/money on polishing up the game, Takahashi decided he wanted to tell his whole story dramatically reduced the scope of disc 2 while keeping the story mostly intact.
>>
>>381147824
>you forgot
I didn't know, though that's not really going to help with slow load times in and out of every fight or whenever you try to open the menu. I couldn't play Xenogears without having the speed up key bound to R2 or something. Way too many 3-5 second load times just add up and start to aggravate. I feel the same way about most PS1 JRPGs.

Ah okay, that seems plausible as well. The prevailing theory I heard was pulling devs from Xeno to push FF8 out the door. Either way, I'd love to see a remake with a proper disc 2 but no in hell will ever see that within our lifetimes.
>>
>>381148625
Yeah but just tapping the speed up key and the game suddenly running at 10x speed accomplishes the same thing and it makes random encounters far less monotonous. If I were to ever play Xenogears again I might try it but then again I might also forget it exists.

He was meant to be the artificial Contact but then they found the genuine one and he was aborted.

Hence the obsessive inferiority complex he has with Fei.

Now let's talk about Billy.

Abandoned by father.

Raped as a kid. AKA 'Selling your body."

Becomes an Executor.

Wears cowboy boots.

His gear has a fucking cape.

Operator tier with firearms.

Billy was based as fuck.

Wrong.

Miang became the first human created by the Zohar out of the feelings, missing his mother and need for a companion for the lone survivor of the crash, the boy who's descendents of Fei.

Xenogears was well ahead of it's time; at least for a JRPG released here in America due to all the religious and blasphemy involved in the narrative.

Sure the 2nd disc wasn't what was originally intended but it was either that or the game ending with 1st.

I'd rather have a mediocre orgasm after a great sex session than no orgasm at all.

considering the day and age, that shit would have fucking flipped out people hardcore due to the strong religious foundation when the game came out.
