Xenoblade 2’s challenge battles had been something of a gamechanger, not only radically ramping up just how hard Xenoblade 2 bosses could be (the base game Superbosses were generally underwhelming), but introducing various brand new mechanics like the Awakening status, as well as the ability of certain bosses to straight up shut down your party gauge (not only disabling chain attacks, but also your ability to revive fallen party members). And beyond a much-needed difficulty spike, XB2’s selection of Challenge Battles were quite memorable, ranging from taking on Xenoblade’s infamous giant monkeys and an absolutely BRUTAL showdown with Xenoblade X’s Elma + her Ghost Factory (the true version of this fight took me 59 minutes to beat, and then battle had a 60 minute time limit!) to getting to reenact Jin’s assault on that Ardainian Titan Battle Ship, and a lengthy gauntlet of Nopon battles to prove that Tora is the bestest Heropon ever! Sadly, the Time Attack battle mode added to the Xenoblade 1 Switch remaster was not anywhere near as good. The battles were way easier, way less interesting, and the whole mode just felt like an afterthought. It of course didn’t help that Xenoblade 1’s combat system just isn’t nearly as good as the one its sequel boasts. But as I’ve mentioned numerous times by now, Xenoblade 3’s combat is thoroughly excellent, so how do its Challenge Battles fare? Well, overall I’d argue that they occupy something of a middle ground between the mediocre (Xenoblade 1’s mode) and the masterful (Xenoblade 2’s mode). The first few challenge battles are certainly forgettable affairs, that have you fighting wave after wave of weak trash mobs, but later battles do deliver you some good matchups, like having you take on Consul N and Consul M at the same time (in the base game you only had individual battles against them), as well as fights against the likes of Shulk and Rex, and Segiri and her twin. Hell, there’s even a massive, multi-wave battle against almost all your Hero allies, only this time their special abilities are supercharged! But by far most creative is the battle that forces you entire party to utilize the Soul Hacker class – you know, the one that can steal Arts and Skills from Unique Monsters (of which this game has tons of). I played around with this super neat class a fair bit more during my second playthrough than I had during my first, and came away really impressed by the dozens and dozens of new and unique attacks that it gives you access to. It’s also by its nature a class that offers crazy levels of customization, including the ability to have the class function as an Attacker, Defender or Healer, so you absolutely can construct a viable party consisting of ONLY Soul Hackers, and have all 6 of your party members play completely different – and this challenge definitely acted as a skill check to make sure that you hadn’t been neglecting the class. However, one undeniable weakness of Xenoblade 3’s challenge battles has to do with their, well, challenge. Simply put, they’re really fucking easy! I was playing on Hard Mode, and yet even the toughest challenges only took me a handful of tries to overcome. They might actually be easier than the base game Superbosses – and they’re DEFINITELY weaker than even the slightly souped up versions of said Superbosses that you can choose to rematch after beating them the first time, let alone the strongest possible version of them (again, the strongest Superboss can be rematched at LEVEL 200!!). Sure, I get that Xenoblade 3 didn’t have the same kind of power creep that Xenoblade 2 had with its DLC content, and I’m not asking for Bringer of Chaos-levels of difficulty here (that difficulty setting is stupid as hell anyway) – but when your DLC Challenge Content is less challenging than battles already found in the base game, somebody somewhere absolutely did fuck up. Thankfully, Xenoblade 3’s DLC does have one final ace up its sleeve, because in addition to the Time Attack challenge battles (the direct equivalent to similar bonus battles in Xenoblade DE and Xenoblade 2) its Expansion Pass also introduced a brand new type of battle mode, called the Archsage's Gauntlet – and this one is actually VERY interesting. Basically, it’s a rogue-like (yeah yeah, I know, that’s something of an overused and arguably played out gimmick at this point, but hear me out) mode where you pick one of you 6 party characters, who will be the ONLY character who you can control throughout a long series of battles. But here’s the actually cool part: As you go through this gauntlet, you keep getting opportunities to recruit randomly selected Hero characters to fight alongside you. Your first few battles guarantee you a small selection of affordable Hero characters so you can quickly get a viable (if small) party up and running, but from then on they quickly become way rarer and more expensive. What this means is that you’ll usually end up with some makeshift, often unbalanced party that’s RADICALLY different from anything you can normally have access to in Xenoblade 3. In every other situation, your party only has room for a single Hero character – but in Archsage's Gauntlet, it can contain up to 6 of these guys. And why yes, this DOES mean that you can make yourself a Xenoblade 3 party that includes Shulk, Rex, Melia AND Nia! Sure, it’s a shame that you can’t actually take control of the Hero characters, but I still greatly appreciate how this mode opens the door to countless new team configurations (remember, with the DLC Xenoblade 3 now boasts a whopping 23 different Heroes!). And there’s way much more to Archsage's Gauntlet than experimental team compositions – as you beat stage after stage you keep getting new opportunity to spend the money earned from your battles to buy all sorts of random upgrades, both straightforward improvements to your combat capabilities as well as more risky Curses, which sharply improve certain attributes of yours at the cost of making you worse off in other respects. And even beyond that, there’s time management to consider: as you battle you’ll have to ensure that your ticking Nopwatch doesn’t fully deplete, because if it does you’ll be hit with a number of absolutely crippling penalties, including Arts recharge slowing down to the point that you’ll practically be limited to just your auto-attacks. So just pay to have your Nopwatch refilled whenever the opportunity arises, right? But the problem is that refilling your Nopwatch becomes more expensive the more times you pay for it – so if you still have like 40% of the Nopwatch time remaining, won’t paying to have it refilled be something of a waste? At the same time, you REALLY don’t want to be leave the refill to the last minute and thus place yourself at the mercy of RNGesus. And this is why the roguelike aspect of Archsage's Gauntlet works so well for it: since it’s random which Heroes and upgrade opportunities you get presented with, no two playthroughs will be the same, some runs will feel Blessed while others will feel Cursed, and you’ll keep having to change up your tactics depending on the opportunities and obstacles you’re presented with. And there’s just so many different ways to approach this mode: do you play it safe or do you play it risky in terms of waiting for the perfect Heroes and upgrades? Do you go for longevity or DPS, do you min-max like crazy even at the cost of suffering a few Curses - or perhaps you come up with ways to take advantage of High-risk Nopwatch strategies, by for example investing in the skill that increases your damage output the less time you have left, while simultaneous buffing your auto-attack at every opportunity so that you can keep fighting even if the watch runs out of time? And all this doesn’t even cover the actual battling and all the strategies you can employ there, both team-based and individual ones. One really nice combination for dealing with mobs of enemies was Ethel’s Flash Fencer class (which very quickly charges up your Talent Art *and* has a Power Charge Art that boosts the damage of your next Art used) and Gray’s ranged Violent Streak AOE Talent Art, but I’m sure there are tons of other cool combos you can come up with just for your player character – which of course plays into what kind of Heroes you will want on your team. Oh, and it’s not like you’re just fighting waves of trash mobs – there’s mini-bosses and full-blown bosses to fight as well, and the hardest gauntlet even throws in a bunch of additional random elements and surprise boss battles to REALLY keep you on your toes. As should be obvious by now, I really dig Archsage's Gauntlet, and think that it elevates Xenoblade 3’s Challenge Battles from a disappointment to something that’s at least as good as what Xenoblade 2 offered. My big problem with it simply comes down to length: the Gauntlet: Pro took me several hours to complete, and that’s only because you get credit for beating it just by clearing the first 70 stages; in actuality, there are a total of *140* stages that you can go through! And it’s not like you can save in the middle of these gauntlets either, so this daunting time commitment that a single session of the Archsage's Gauntlet can demand does undermine its otherwise excellent replay value. I very much wish Monolith Soft had come up with ways speed up the Archsage's Gauntlet experience, by for example ramping up the difficulty more quickly in exchange for letting you earn more money and be presented with more upgrades to buy. But again, Archsage's Gauntlet is on the whole a brilliant addition to Xenoblade 3, and it even makes for a really good time sink, since there’s just so many things you can spend your hard-earned Challenge Mode money on. The same also goes for the Time Attack battles btw, and in this respect it’s actually quite a bit better than Xenoblade 2’s Challenge Mode, where you didn’t really have a lot to work towards after buying all the DLC outfits that you fancied. If it hadn’t been for the fact that I’d already sunk more than 200 hours into my second Xenoblade 3 playthrough outside of the Challenge Mode, I’d probably have devoted a lot more time to it than I actually ended up doing. Without Future Redeemed, would the Expansion Pass still be worth 30 bucks? No, naturally it would not – Future Redeemed is obviously the main reason to buy the DLC, and that was always gonna be the case. Still, the non-Future Redeemed DLC does have a lot to recommend it, and if it was priced at 15-20 dollars I would have considered it quite reasonable. Xenoblade 2’s selection of non-prequel DLC was still substantially more impressive (and a lot of it was even free!), but that speaks more to just how strongly XB2 was supported after its launch than to any inadequacy with XB3’s downloadable content, which is very solid in its own right. Conclusion Replaying Xenoblade 3 didn’t really produce any breathtaking new insights, but it did confirm that it really is an incredible game despite its shortcomings, and didn’t rely on Hype (and the accompanying Cope) to be a great experience – if anything, the hype-factor held it back somewhat. Ultimately, I’m just tremendously pleased that I got to enjoy another modern JRPG of this caliber, and that Xenoblade still manages to maintain sky-high standards – and of course, that the Xenoblade 3 journey would end on such a high note with the release of Future Redeemed. https://s3.poster.place/drc/7c7009f130658ef3c4994cedb3f3aed7a0b3acb57c22800a47032cccb8c11b2a.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 7/8 Masha, the second DLC Hero, unfortunately ended up being quite overshadowed initially – but not necessarily by Ino! Sure, I’m quite confident that the adorable robot girl was the more popular Hero overall, but what *really* caused Masha to initially get overlooked was the fact that the very same Nintendo Direct segment that first showed her off also revealed the new DLC Challenge Battles and, oh yeah, MOTHERFUCKING FUTURE REDEEMED! That 10-second clip of Shulk and GigaChad Rex facing down Evil Alvis caused mass freakouts within the Xenoblade community, and ensured that Masha was pretty much the last thing on the minds of Xenoblade fans. That said, Masha would eventually go on to become a respected and appreciated addition to Xenoblade 3’s Hero roster. Not only is she very pretty, but her class is quite potent as well. Xenoblade 3 did a fantastic job coming up with a number of unique Healer classes that represented fun and fresh takes on the healer role, and Masha’s Lapidarist class is yet another successful example of this. An offensively oriented healer, Masha specializes in healing damage when hitting enemies, especially when those hits are critical, as well as putting down fields that heal allies whenever they use an Art. As such, she obviously incentivizes Arts Spam and high-crit strats reminiscent of Xenoblade 2’s crit healing, though not as overpowered and braindead – though that’s not to say that her class isn’t very good: effects like boosting critical hit rates, massively boosting critical hit damage AND greatly boosting damage when in range of a field are all obviously extremely desirable, especially when the character heals the party as well. All I’m saying is that Masha is not nearly as busted as somebody like Xenoblade 2’s Fiora, a DLC Blade who deals some of the highest DPS in the entire game *while being a Healer who can casually restore the party back to full health just by using her Lacerate special attack*. Though I guess it did nicely foreshadow just how devastating Lucky Seven would end up being… In addition to their uses in battle, Ino and Masha both come with a couple of Hero Quests each. The first round of quests are quite Meh, while the later two quests are a lot more interesting, though still probably less compelling than the majority of base Xenoblade 3 Hero Quests . That said, Ino’s second quest does feature an extremely hype instance of Xenoblade 2 memberberries, and Masha’s second quest includes some surprisingly poignant world building for the City (from which she hails), so they’re hardly bad, just somewhat underwhelming overall. On the whole though, I’d definitely say that Ino and Masha are worthy additions to Xenoblade 3 that enrich any playthrough, whether your first or your fourth. Their inclusion does wonders for early- and mid-game teambuilding, and they’re actually properly balanced so that they don’t singlehandedly lower the game’s difficulty level. Of course, there were another two additional DLC Heroes added to Xenoblade 3 besides Ino and Masha – though these are extremely limited in scope, and can basically just assist you in battle. Which is a shame, because they could have potentially been the most awesome inclusions of them all, considering how it’s Shulk and Rex we’re talking about here! However, given how these Heroes were never advertised as becoming available outside of Future Redeemed in the first place, they’re very clearly here as pure Bonuses – and given just how insanely OP our boy Rex proved to be in Future Redeemed, maybe it’s just as well that we don’t gain access to his class in Xenoblade 3, since it would presumably render the 10 other Attacker classes obsolete. It IS a bit shocking however just how rushed of an addition this pair of legendary heroes obviously was – hell, you don’t even get any unique dialogue from Shulk when visiting Colony 9 with him in your party! But even so, it’s still nice to have them here in Xenoblade 3’s main world, especially since the DLC’s single biggest addition (outside of Future Redeemed) DOES find some good user for them. https://s3.poster.place/drc/c5c3e5845ad2415d978e5a0d77960a6d67bb7ddd7de8864a6b32ed6fd58657d3.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 6/8 Paid DLC - New Heroes That’s enough coomer talk for now tho, it’s time shift our focus over to something of significantly more substance, namely the two new Hero characters that the Expansion Pass brought us. And I must say, they’re quite well integrated into the base game – in stark contrast to Xenoblade 2, where I’d strongly urge everyone to avoid using DLC Blades like Crossette and Corvin until well into the postgame, since they straight up invalidate all other Blades of their kind (Bitball- and Chroma Katana users respectively). I have no fucking idea what Chuggaaconroy was smoking when he decided that it was a good idea to awaken Crossette something like 10% into his Xenoblade 2 LP, because the DLC power creep in Xenoblade 2 was insane, and Crossette on her own can pretty much trivialize all of the base game. It’s pretty damn obvious that the likes of Crossette, Corvin and Fiora were designed for the DLC-exclusive Challenge Battle Mode, which dramatically ramped up the difficulty (more on this later). Meanwhile, the Xenoblade 3 DLC Heroes are actually not only properly balanced, they even complement the existing roster of Hero characters very nicely. Wisely, Monolith Soft decided to not add a new Attacker, since Attackers already comprised a MAJORITY of all Hero characters (10 out of 19), despite only being 1 out of 3 main class roles in the game. Sure, offensively oriented characters are fun and all, but such a lopsided focus on a particular class role and playstyle is still not ideal – and it was made all the worse when you consider that only 3 out of 19 base game Heroes belonged to the Defender class! Of course, you also had Lanz and Mio’s Defender classes, but still, the tanky boys and girls really did get snubbed hard. All of this is to say that Ino is a very welcome addition to the game – all the more so because she becomes available quite early, not all that far into Chapter 3. Having another Defender be available for the bulk of the main adventure really does help round out the Hero selection and gives you a lot more options for team building. Moreover, Ino’s class is actually really fun, her being a dodge tank with some nice tricks up her sleeve. Sure, we already had one type of evasion tank in the form of Mio’s original class, but I see nothing wrong with Xenoblade’s perhaps most iconic defensive archetype (previously repped by fan favorite characters like Dunban and Morag) getting more love. And Ino does come equipped with some tools that help her stand out, like a Break art, and various ways to massively increase her damage output each time she gets revived after being incapacitated. This is a very neat comeback mechanic that a Blade like T-elos from Xenoblade 2 utilized to stunning effect, and while Ino (being a tank rather than a glass cannon) doesn’t quite achieve the same level of face-melting damage output, this skill definitely helps patch up her offensive- and aggro-grabbing shortcomings, meaning that even if she fails to heed Piccolo’s command, she can come back stronger than ever and quickly reclaim the enemy’s attention – an essential quality in a tank. So I’d say Ino is a good and well-designed Defender, without being crazy fucking busted like Xenoblade 2’s Corvin. Speaking of design, we do need to talk about how Ino looks – she’s a super cute robot girl, and her connection to Nopons and blatant Xenoblade 2 references make it extremely obvious that she’s meant to be Xenoblade 3’s answer to Poppi. Hell, you can even upgrade her over the course of the game, in a manner similar to Poppi (no Tiger Tiger grind tho, thankfully!). Fun fact, Poppi Alpha is actually my favorite character in all of Xenoblade – bet you wouldn’t have guessed that! Yeah, I really don’t post nearly enough Poppi content… Now, initially I found it kinda bizarre that Monolith Soft would go out of their way to add Not-Poppi to Xenoblade 3 as a Hero, when they could just include, you know, Actual-Poppi instead? I mean, both the postgame AND the DLC adds characters from previous games as Heroes, and we know Poppi is actually not trapped within Origin. On closer examination tho, I get it: Ino is meant to be a Hero that you can use from pretty early on during your very first playthrough, and if you tried to fit Poppi into that role it would not only create minor plot holes, it would also open one big ol’ can of worms when it comes to Xenoblade 3’s connections to the past games, which is a mystery that’s supposed to be explored slowly and cautiously. As such, I appreciate Ino even more now that I understand why she’s here instead of Poppi. Robot girls are almost always a hit with me, and while Ino offers very little of the depth and understated, yet brilliant character development that made Poppi such a phenomenal character, she’s still very lovable – and in terms of design, I might actually PREFER her to all 3 Poppi forms, she really is exceedingly cute. Overall, an excellent addition. https://s3.poster.place/drc/122e0d6501e16385aa63edd697deed2b5846d80b8764262366acde834ebd9706.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 5/8 Paid DLC – Costumes Of course, for my second playthrough of Xenoblade 3 I didn’t just bring with me all of the additional knowledge and new perspective that I had acquired, I also changed up the actual game a fair bit with new content added by its 30 dollar Expansion Pass. Now, in these tempestuous times of video game pricing controversies (ESPECIALLY with regard to Nintendo games), this section of the writeup might seem tailor-made for an in-depth discussion of whether or not the Xenoblade 3 Expansion Pass is actually worth the money – but I’m not actually gonna do that. Why? Because it’d be an extremely uninteresting discussion, that’s why. Xenoblade 3’s Expansion Pass just so happens to include the Future Redeemed prequel to XB3, which was literally my 2023 GOTY. So yeah, no shit the Expansion Pass is worth 30 bucks, hell, Future Redeemed on its own would be extremely good value for that price. So unless you absolutely hated Xenoblade 3, the Expansion Pass is a no-brainer. However, Future Redeemed was such a great experience that I found it worthy of its own separate writeup (which I’ll at long last get around to sharing on Varis, seeing how THIS writeup has now finally been completed), so it won’t actually be covered here. Instead, I’ll be dealing with everything else that’s included in the Expansion Pass. First of all, you do get a bunch of new outfits for your party characters. The first set of outfits released were the least interesting ones, only consisting of recolors of the canon outfits (though I will say, I actually much prefers Taion’s recolored outfit to his regular fit). The later waves of outfits however included a bunch of neat Xenoblade 1 and 2 throwbacks, and most importantly, the motherfucking swimsuits! Now, I’ve been somewhat down on these swimsuits in the past, mainly because my girl Eunie’s bikini is fucking RUINED by that goddamn sarong that covers up her butt! As an ass-man, that instantly turns what *should* be the best outfit of the lot into the worst. That said, Mio and Sena’s swimsuits are quite good – Mio’s skirted bikini shows a fair bit of skin, while Sena’s skintight wetsuit accentuates her lovely buttocks like crazy! Seriously, this might just be the best of the lot – just have our girl with the gall climb a ladder, then zoom in the camera and position it strategically and – oh boy, is it getting hot in here? That is something I’ve come to appreciate more about Xenoblade 3’s fanservice as of late – admittedly, in response to the bullshit Xenoblade 2 fanservice controversy, Monolith Soft had clearly been told by Nintendo to not have the girls in XB3 be too scantily clad (despite Xenoblade 2 being by far the most successful game in the series, and both Xenoblade 1 DE and Xenoblade X DE on the Switch getting away with more gratuitous fanservice than even 2 boasted), which is of course a crying shame. However, you can definitely tell that Monolith Soft was still committed to celebrating the female form even within these constraints – hence the marked rise in tight, form-fitting pants and shorts that our 3 main girls can equip. Again, I’m an ass-man, so I can’t help but take note of and applaud this development. Mio especially gets some genuinely good DLC fanservice outfits – not just due to her cute bikini, but also because her Consul M outfit (not technically part of the Expansion Pass, but part of a later free update that enables you to unlock her M look in the postgame even without the Mio Amiibo) has her caked up like crazy! This is *slightly* unfortunate, because I personally tend to sexually Mio LESS than the 2 other main girls (and yes, Chapter 5 is a big reason for that), but the catgirl is of course still very cute and desirable, and less of course does not mean never, so I still very much appreciate the Mio fanservice – I just wish we weren’t denied Eunie’s beautiful bikini bottom… https://s3.poster.place/drc/8d5a20f1a13b0a661f74a2f4c3fbab58ee1244706f14259df97347d8c0d87215.png npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 4/8 Based Morality Revisited Of course, another major aspect of Xenoblade 3’s writing has to do with the extent to which it was contaminated by Global Standards – as well as how much it actually ended up promoting positive and refreshingly countercultural ideas. On the whole, I definitely feel that what I wrote back during the original writeup still holds up – in part because me starting to replay Xenoblade 3 while working on the writeup did save me from committing a real boner when commenting on the game’s marked increase in dark-skinned characters. Sure, I still kept my original rant in the writeup simply because I found it amusing, but I did corrected myself towards the end. As I concluded, the game’s share of dark-skinned characters is probably not even 10% - still a very noticeable increase from past Xenoblade games, but not nearly as egregious as I remembered it. I suspect my memories might have been colored by Fedi and Varis outrage about Xenoblade 3 supposedly being pozzed (many of the people complaining never actually having played the game, naturally). During my second playthrough I did wonder whether the relative paucity of darkies was something limited to the soldiers and their colonies, but no – despite a couple of notable City characters being of a darker complexion, the City as a whole actually remains very white! Hell, even Ghondor, who you’d be forgiven for perceiving as the ultimate Sassy Black Girl is only mixed-race, so the lone “major” City character who’s unambiguously black is Garrett, the leader of the Conservative faction, who is pretty much a non-factor in the main story. Oh right, the City Conservatives, how come I didn’t actually mention them during the original Writeup? On the face of it, one would certainly think that the game labeling a group opposed to the heroes as “Conservative” would be an example of blatant shitlib propaganda, but in reality it’s not nearly that simple. Even on a purely superficial level, the fact that the Conservative leader is a black man already makes direct comparisons to the political scene of *most* industrialized countries somewhat awkward (the exception being the absolute disgrace that is the UK Conservative Party), but much more important is the fact that the word “conservative” in this context seems to be used very literally: the focus of the City’s conservative faction is literally to Conserve the status quo, to avoid provoking Moebius to the point where they decide to Morb all over the City and raze it to the ground. And these are hardly unreasonable concerns – Moebius destroyed the City a thousand years ago, and came EXTREMELY close to doing so again during Chapter 6. And of course, I’ve already gone over in the original Writeup how Xenoblade 3’s ending seems to represent the ultimate vindication of the Conservatives – again, if you’re a City resident, why WOULD you want to end your relatively normal and peaceful existence in Aionios (no 10 Year Curse, no Forever War) just for a *chance* to be reborn outside of Origin? And while base Xenoblade 3 on the whole remains relatively unsympathetic to the Conservatives and their hostility to change (even though, as explained, they legitimately have way more to lose than to gain from said change), the later sidequests do actually make it quite clear that Garrett is a legitimately reasonable and compassionate man who effectively serves at Monica’s loyal opposition. And then later on we even got Future Redeemed, which gives us an actual main character representing and expressing the Conservative view, and not on accident either: Matthew’s sister, the buxom catgirl Na'el, literally ends up being the founder of House Doyle, the wellspring of City conservatism. So to sum it up, I really don’t think the presence of Xenoblade 3’s Conservative faction is meant to be a “dig” against IRL rightwingers – and if it is, it actually backfires pretty badly! There WERE however some culture war issues with Xenoblade 3 that became more glaring than ever over the course of my second playthrough. First of all, the game’s use of singular they was significantly worse than I remembered it, almost on par with how bad it is in modern Fire Emblem. And on the note of singular ghey, we unfortunately need to again return to our old friend Juniper. No, I still didn’t find any hint of actual “non-binary” identity in her dialogue, so the uses of singular they for that characters remains nothing but superficial cultural vandalism by the trannylators, possibly conspiring with Juniper’s English-language voice actress (who’s supposedly “non-binary” herself). However, this time I did make note of a potentially pernicious Colony Tau sidequest chain, which had somehow escaped my notice during my original playthrough, to the point where I legitimately had no idea what RehnSturm was talking about when he rightfully called it out on Fedi. Essentially, the sidequest chain in question involves the realization that Colony Tau’s peculiar customs and traditions are nothing but the inventions of Moebius, more specifically the twisted Consul U. After this awful truth is exposed and we press F for U, naturally Colony Tau needs to turn a page on its backwards past. Now, in-universe this makes perfect sense, but in terms of how the “media literate” types will read it…you can probably see the issue here. And as much as I would like to say that ANY kind of long-lasting tradition being the product of malevolent conspiracies is an idea so obviously outlandish that nobody would try to apply it to the real world, my experience with left-liberals suggests otherwise – these are ABSOLUTELY the kinds of people who will unironically claim that groups of old, White men have from time immemorial used religion and tradition to keep women, nonwhites and sexual minorities down, rather than acknowledge the obvious – the whole reason that enduring traditions and ways of doing things endure is because they WORK, even if shortsighted people whose whole morality is based around the Current Thing can’t grasp that. So giving these mental midgets a storyline like this to latch onto is quite unfortunate. It doesn’t help that the foremost character to cling to Colony Tau’s antiquated and dangerous traditions, the colony’s lieutenant Raine, will invoke all the sacrifices of the past and the will of fallen comrades – classic rightwing and conservative rhetoric – only for his intention to follow that path very nearly being the death of him, and his failures eventually causing him to abandon his old ideals. Again, in-universe this all makes sense, but the way it reads in a wider cultural context definitely leaves a bad taste in my mouth. In today’s cultural and political climate, where Cultural Marixists trample over all sorts of “oppressive” and “irrational” traditions (ultimately with disastrous consequences) because they are oblivious or contemptuous of the Chesterton’s fence maxim, the last thing we need is a storyline that pushes the idea that quaint customs and odd traditions that outsiders fail to understand really were just stupid and evil all along. And I’m honestly puzzled by just how I could have missed the disturbing implications of this quest chain the first time around. On a more positive note, a problem with the game’s writing that I considered bringing up in the original writeup, but ultimately left out, actually ended up being subverted by a late Hero Quest. See, one thing that I during my first playthrough noted to my dismay was the game’s seemingly consistent use of “partners” rather than married, husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend etc. So another example of faggy genderblob language, right? Actually, no! Keep in mind, the characters stubbornly using this kind of language are talking to our party of former Keves and Agnus soldiers, for whom the likes of romance, sex and family are foreign concepts – so referring to your wife as your “partner” when talking to these characters, even though it falls shorts of conveying the true meaning of your relationship, does actually make sense in this context. And this isn’t just some charitable interpretation a Xenoblade fanboy is pulling out of his ass to defend one of his favorite games – there’s a Hero Quest that blatantly backs up this idea! See, one of your earlier Hero characters actually turns out to be from the city, and is even revealed to be married (to a woman half his age, lol). Once the party first learns about the marriage, they simply perceive the man and wife as “Partners”, and the registered affinity link between the two characters is registered as somewhat neutral, as if the two are not actually all that close – reflecting that our main characters don’t really understand the true nature of this relationship. Later on however, after the Hero’s Ascension Quest (aka his second Hero Quest) in which his wife plays a major role, the party actually ends up gaining a greater appreciation of what it means to be married, and so the recorded relationship between the Hero and his wife goes from “Partners” to “Married”, the affinity link between them now being maxed out. A pretty neat and telling demonstration that language matters, and of how imprecise and “inclusive” language ultimately fails to convey reality. Returning to the negatives for a moment however, Ghondor Vandham is definitely more of a Mary Sue than I was originally willing to admit. The real clincher for me was Nia’s Hero Quest, where the Queen of Agnus spends a solid paragraph gratuitously glazing Ghondor, to the point where even the moody mulatta finds it hella awkward. There’s also the fact that Ghondor barely ever receives any real pushback in response to her constant rude and disrespectful behavior (she’s very lucky Monica is White, because a black or Latina mother would surely have responded to a nickname like “Bitch Queen” with a resounding ass-whuppin’), and how she’s randomly depicted as super-smart (Ghondor having 35 TP is some real bullshit) in addition to already being the City’s finest warrior. Oh, and as various people pointed out in the replies to my original writeup, Ghondor straight up hijacks what’s supposed to be Sena’s Side Story! While that IS a very compelling quest in its own right, it would obviously have been much more appropriate as Ghondor’s Ascension Quest. I don’t even personally dislike Ghondor, unlike quite a few other Xenoblade 3 fans (again, she’s like a Boondocks character plopped into Xenoblade, and part of me gets a real kick out of that), but she definitely gets shilled really hard by the game and enjoys some blatant favoritism, and it’s naïve to assume that this is completely unrelated to the Diversity quota that she fills. On the whole, while I did observe some new negative elements throughout my second playthrough, I still think Xenoblade 3 qualifies as a +2/-2 game on my Based Morality Scale – and keep in mind, the points I’ve discussed for the past few pages are relatively minor in the grand scheme of things, certainly in comparison to what I went over in the original writeup. That said, given how this is the kind of stuff you definitely won’t see critically discussed in any normiespace Xenoblade 3 review, it was still nice to get a chance to go over some of my more recent observations, as well as address issues (primarily about the Conservative faction) that I originally left out because my writeup was already fucking ginormous. https://s3.poster.place/drc/8a96582ff2cd71b9faca0d177af15d0a798f2f9c97e1e7dc5328e8010476f213.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 3/8 Keep in mind, I actually did my second playthrough of Xenoblade 3 before learning about any of this stuff, so it didn’t color my perception of the story as I re-experienced it, though of course I still brought with me my knowledge of what ends up happening over the course of the game, as well as the various revelations from Future Redeemed. That said, all that knowledge wasn’t necessarily as impactful as you might think; Xenoblade 3 doesn’t boast the crazy levels of foreshadowing that the first game had, which just recontextualizes SO many moments throughout its story once you revisit the game, nor does Future Redeemed transform your understanding of various key characters the way Xenoblade 2’s Torna DLC did for the main game (you’ll feel slightly more sympathy for N, that’s about it). Sure, Xenoblade 3 does boast its fair share of nice foreshadowing, and obviously some really effective twists, but even back when I first played through the game completely blind it was quickly made clear that the whole stinkin’ war between Keves and Agnus is one big scam cooked up by Moebius, and that Aionios is a dysfunctional world hiding a dark secret, and so while the final reveal about Aionios might *seem* like the kind of earthshattering bombshell that changes everything, it actually, kinda doesn’t – at least not in a good way. Indeed, a number of Xenoblade 3’s big twists effectively serve to undermine the story that preceded them, primarily by making death feel cheap and temporary, and many of your actions ultimately seeming inconsequential. Ultimately, the game’s final chapter and ending being so thoroughly flawed essentially ensures that the prior (and superior) chapters aren’t really enriched or elevated by you knowing how it all fits together and how it eventually turns out, because Xenoblade 3 didn’t stick its landing. But all of this does make me sound way more down on the story than I really am – Xenoblade 3 isn’t another Attack on Titan situation, where the ending is so bad that it greatly diminishes the entire story, and utterly ruins major characters. In fact, replaying Xenoblade 3 I found myself thoroughly engrossed and invested throughout the journey, again being blown away by just how good so many of the cutscenes and big story moments are, loving the characters (I’d partially forgotten just how awesome Eunie is) and, holy shit, does Chapter 5 still hit insanely hard! It turns out that while the way Monolith Soft wrapped up Xenoblade 3’s story was somewhat unsatisfying, it wasn’t nearly bad enough to undo all the good work that the game had done prior to that point. Replaying Xenoblade 3, especially after already having completed my colossal writeup, did however help clarify my thoughts on Chapter 7 and parts of Chapter 6, and exactly HOW I feel they fail to live up to the rest of the game – despite them undeniably having a lot of good individual moments. Basically, the final stretch of the game’s story is weak because it essentially ONLY works due to all the momentum the prior chapters had generated, and all the good character writing already in place. When it comes to resolving existing conflicts, late Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 range from good (how Consul J’s character arc wraps up) to underwhelming, but okay (N’s eventual change of heart) to TERRIBLY rushed (X and Y, ‘nuff said) – not a stellar record overall, but the drop in quality and consistency is somewhat obscured because of just how invested you are in the story and the characters by that point, which means that plenty of good and memorable moments are still naturally produced due to the sheer the number of important storylines being revolved at this point. Meanwhile, the last few NEW twists being introduced are generally of questionable quality or at least seriously lacking in some way or another, while the closest thing Chapter 7 has to a self-contained storyline (the Consul C side story) features storytelling that’s drastically inferior to pretty much everything that preceded it. Looking at Xenoblade 3 as a whole, it’s pretty clear that the story is running on fumes at this point, with the game barely being able to cross the finish line. By contrast, Xenoblade 1 pretty much paced itself perfectly, while Xenoblade 2’s final chapter represented the absolute peak of that game’s storytelling. Of course, I also do want to give Xenoblade 3 its due: for the vast majority of the game, we’re talking about a narrative that’s both far more consistent and consistently good than what’s found in Xenoblade 2, while also boasting a significantly better cast of character and much more powerful emotional moments than Xenoblade 1. Purely in terms of individual scenes and moments, I still believe that this IS the single greatest Xenoblade story ever – it’s just a shame it stumbled towards the end. I will however say that after replaying the game and reading up on Aionios and Origin, the whole convoluted origin (heh) story and state of Xenoblade 3’s world does gradually seem to make more sense, albeit with some major parts of the puzzle still missing, or not seeming to quite fit. But at least I do think I’ve finally figured out whether or not the party knew that defeating Z would mean the end of Origin and their current lives: Yes, they did know, because Nia eventually told them – not during the main story, but at the end of her Hero Quest. While this quest is reserved for the postgame, there’s actually nothing in it that couldn’t plausibly take place between Nia’s awakening and the Ouroboros entering Origin (as opposed to Melia’s Hero Quest, which is obviously non-canon). And at the end of this quest, Nia DOES explain that the final battle will spell the end for Aionios, and that their memories of what has transpired will be lost. While I definitely think this quest should have been available before the postgame, it does at least help patch up a potential plot hole once you finally get to it. Another question that I might just have figured out the answer to has to do with the seemingly odd behavior of the Ouroboros pairs once they’re about to part, where they act like they’ll still live on in Keves/Agnus with their memories intact after the big separation. While the exact details remain hazy, Mio’s final diary entry DOES at least give you some idea of what happens after time again starts moving and the two worlds drift apart: As the morning sun rises, my lingering memories fade. I no longer see your silhouette. It's too far gone into the haze. But, hey... it's all right. I won't forget you. Not until we can meet again... I swear it. This tells us at least a few things: Agnus and Keves don’t instantly fade away the moment they separate, and life does seem to go on for at least a short while afterwards – meaning that Eunie probably DOES get the chance to try out Taion’s herbal tea recipe after all! The way these worlds come to an end also seems less abrupt than I had imagined, which I actually do find a somewhat comforting thought – it’s less like a switch being flipped to snap Agnus and Keves out of existence, and more like the characters are slowly waking up from a long dream. First the memories of the other world will fade, and then the world the characters reside in will itself gradually start disappearing, along with its population. The process ultimately seems…kinda peaceful? At the very least the dying moments of these worlds do seem less abrupt and brutal than I imagined them. I still have plenty of problems with both the ending and the backstory, but I am increasingly coming around to the view that Takahashi does have a clear idea of what’s actually going on here, even if the way it’s conveyed in the actual game leaves a lot to be desired. https://s3.poster.place/drc/204089c8f65c25e9d56d5ffcf23813376595741f116c9f16c1753ceb87aa4bb8.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 2/8 In less encouraging news, during this playthrough I actually got to test out the Disable Overkill option, and I had been hoping that not being saddled with a bunch of unwanted Bonus EXP from accidental overkills would at least somewhat ameliorate my issue with overleveling – but if anything, that problem became WORSE in this playthrough! Now, this wasn’t due to the Disable Overkill feature being glitched or anything like that, it worked as intended – it’s just that my improved skills enabled me to defeat more Unique Monsters, and defeat them earlier than when I first played through Xenoblade 3, and all the additional EXP that those victories netted me more than cancelled out the EXP reduction that a lack of overkills resulted in. Because of this, not only did I end up just as overleveled as before by the time Chapter 5 rolled around, but even during much of Chapter 3 I was significantly outpacing the story bosses in terms of levels – the bad guys only briefly catching up during the difficulty spike that is Consul J. And obviously, the combination of higher levels and improved knowledge of Xenoblade 3’s combat meant that a number of story bosses that had been memorably challenging during my first playthrough barely counted as speed bumps this time around (and yes, this is all still on Hard Mode). It was already obvious that the game limiting the Level Down feature to the postgame was a huge mistake, but now the final potential excuse for this dumbass design choice has officially been deboonked. Though curiously, the final boss is enough of a difficulty spike that I ended up EXACTLY matching his level during the final battle, so there’s that at least… Despite my problems with being overleveled throughout a large chunk of the main story campaign, I still enjoyed my second playthrough of Xenoblade 3 tremendously from a pure gameplay standpoint – hell, it might have been even more fun the second time around. Not only did I have a greater understanding of the combat, but the game was no longer weighed down by extreme hype and sky-high expectations. As such, I was overall more accepting of the game’s flaws and shortcomings, and more appreciative of all the things that it does exceptionally well. I was able to enjoy Aionios more on its own merits and appreciative how great of a world it actually is to explore, as opposed to bemoaning how it doesn’t quite stack up to the Bionis, Alrest or Mira. This was hardly surprising (I’ve had a similar experience with plenty of games in the past, especially 3D Zeldas), but gratifying all the same. Story Revisited After finishing my original Xenoblade 3 Writeup, I finally started looking a bit into various info about the game’s story and persistent mysteries, primarily the actual lore drops and confirmations that Monolith Soft has given us. It was overall…somewhat less edifying than I’d hoped – though it IS interesting that the writers seem so hesitant about revealing what happens to the characters after the end credits, on the basis that this could potentially spoil events of later games. I had assumed that we were pretty much done with the Klaus Saga at this point, and that Xenoblade 4 would if anything be the start of a whole new trilogy, but it seems we might not actually be quite done Shulk, Rex and Noah’s stories after all. Personally, I find this quite encouraging, not just because I love Xenoblades 1-3 so much, but also because the events of Xenoblade 3 being acknowledged and actually influencing Xenoblade 4 would definitely lend more weight and importance to this game. As for the stuff that Monolith Soft DID reveal, it was something of a mixed bag: first of all, it turns out that Lucky Seven does not actually house the souls of the entire Xenoblade 1 party minus Shulk, it actually only contains the soul of a single character, namely Fiora. So yeah, Fiora is now officially a Sword Girl, just like Pyra and Mythra! Still, that’s definitely NOT what came across in the Future Redeemed translation (it clearly made reference to multiple people), which means that not only did the trannylators try to INVENT a ridiculous, unsupported and lore-breaking “nonbinary” gender identity for Juniper, they also managed to straight up BOTCH an actual translation to the point of flat out misrepresenting notable story details. Shit like this is why we hate these niggers, and root for them all to lose their jobs to AI. Another piece of information that caught my eye was Z being essentially being likened to an Origin system administrator – not its only or main administrator mind you (that would be Alvis, who Z did indeed refer to as his God during Future Redeemed’s opening), but an administrator nonetheless, one who got corrupted by the fear and desire for security that humanity collectively expressed during that fateful moment when the two worlds merged. This IS at least somewhat more palatable to me than Melia claiming that Z is nothing but a personified Concept – at the very least it shows that Z didn’t come out of nowhere, even if he DID end up eventually transcending his original existence and become a personified Concept later on, which would actually mirror what supposedly happened to N and M. …also, I just really like the idea of Z being an admin, because that ultimately means that the Moebius are just whatever people he decides to make into moderators; that’s right, the Moebius were Jannies all along, which explains why they are so evil! But surely, the weirdest and most surprising piece of information that I came across had to do with Riku. Turns out that it’s not reincarnation or the Nopon otherwise getting multiple lives in Aionios with his memories intact, he straight up is Immortal, he has lived for thousands of years and literally knows Melia from before Aionios even came into being! But here’s the kicker: ALL the Nopon in Aionios are immortal and have by now lived for thousands of years, not just Riku! The in-game data about their ages was fake news all along, they’re all fucking ancient, because somehow the rules of Aionios and even the cycle of life and death doesn’t apply to them (I assume they can’t have children either). This is quite the ridiculous reveal on several levels, and DEFINITELY something the actual game should have addressed; why Eunie’s Side Story teased that it would go into the special status of Nopons in Aionios, even forcing you to have Riku & Manana in your party, without ever actually revealing any of this is something I will never understand. Honestly, this reveal is kinda world-breaking, and makes it hard to look at ANY Nopon you meet in Xenoblade 3 the same way again. I would also like to say that it’s completely unbelievable that these furballs could live for something like 100 times longer than they’re supposed to and still come across as completely normal Nopon, but then I *am* reminded of the case of Xenoblade 1’s Nopon Sage, who is canonically 9,999+ years old. Maybe you could make the argument that despite most Nopon not normally having extended lifespans, they’re all nonetheless psychologically equipped for it? I dunno, this reveal was still weird as hell to me. https://s3.poster.place/drc/fb4cd1af5a340cdd1be1b899078791485a522592371da97ed56a9d24063e0c82.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior 1/8 Xenoblade 3 Writeup - My second playthrough and the Paid DLC Link to my magnum opus: https://varishangout.com/index.php?threads/xenoblade-3-titan-sized-deep-dive-writeup.2678/ Despite coming out so much later than the other 9 parts, this represents a continuation of my giant Xenoblade 3 Writeup from last year, essentially being the TRUE epilogue. It will cover both my updated thoughts on the game after now having replayed it, as well as a review of the Paid DLC. Speaking of the DLC, you could of course argue that the TRULY true final part of this giga-writeup is my review of Future Redeemed – but of course, that was written way before I began the work on my actual Xenoblade 3 writeup. Then again, Future Redeemed itself is set over a thousand years before the main Xenoblade 3 story, so you could argue that wonky chronology is thematically fitting. Either way, on Varis I will be uploading my Future Redeemed posts as a separate Vars writeup, since while FR itself might not necessarily be a standalone story, my writeup doesn’t actually demand intense familiarity with all things Xenoblade going into it. Now, I wasn’t actually planning to replay Xenoblade 3 this soon after the game first came out, but as I was working on the writeup, I definitely felt the urge to revisit the game in a more active way. Then it turned out that the game which I had planned to spend much of May and June 2024 on had been ruined by NoA trannylators (NOW they suddenly want to be faithful to the Japanese version- except that Vivian being a Trap and Femboy is still not the same thing as him being a Troon, so not even that excuse holds), which cleared up schedule nicely for a second Xenoblade 3 playthrough. Gameplay Revisited I gotta say, the game did an impressive job keeping me hooked from start to finish, especially considering how I nowadays seem more prone to getting burned out or struggling to maintain interest in long, story-heavy games. And yet Xenoblade 3, despite not even being a new experience (save for the DLC) had me playing for over 200 hours over the course of several months. Despite my gripes, the world is still so amazing and fun to explore, the story is still so gripping and well-written, and the cast of characters so likable and compelling that it becomes a game that you thoroughly enjoy spending time with, and it crafts a world that you can lose yourself in for countless hours. And perhaps most important of all in the case of a second playthrough, the combat system remains spectacularly entertaining and rewarding. That said, my experiences with the battle system were uniformly positive during this playthrough. Replaying Xenoblade 3, I came into the game with a number of questions that I wanted to find the answer to myself, all of them combat-related. For starters, due to naturally being much better at Xenoblade 3 now than when I first started playing the game, I wanted to find out if Chapter 1 on Hard Mode truly was as brutal as I remembered it, or if it was simply my inexperience and lack of knowledge that had been my downfall during the first playthrough. Turns out that no, Hard Mode really IS that bullshit during Chapter 1. A big problem is that both that motherfucking Ropl and Mr. Wild Ride are capable of inflicting you with the damage over time Blaze effect, which is absolutely DEVASTATING at such an early stage of your adventure, when Eunie’s healing is still pitiful. Even when maximizing Lanz’s survivability at the expense of his ability to draw Aggro (and his damage output shouldn’t even be a consideration at this point), he still wasn’t able to win the war of attrition with the Ropl at his normal level even after ALL the sidequests and available exploration has been tackled, meaning that this nigger remains the only Xenoblade story boss that I’ve ever had to actively level grind for. As for Wild Ride, he certainly didn’t feel any easier on my second playthrough – Chapter 1 combat is just too damn restricted for my new knowledge to make any meaningful impact. The one Chapter 1 boss fight that felt way easier was the battle against Team Mio – and only because I went into the battle knowing that I had to prioritize taking out Sena, because of just how much damage she dishes out. As I mentioned in the main writeup, it’s such a crying shame that Chapter 1 forces you to ONLY control your team leader in battle, because simply the ability to control Eunie would almost certainly have enabled me to reliably activate her OP Talent Art before the party bites it, and at that point the battle will pretty much be won – Eunie’s Healing Ring just provides such outstanding, ongoing HP generation that even Blaze will be completely neutralized. Without grinding ahead of the Ropl, as well as refraining from using some of your Bonus EXP at the camp site ahead of the Wild Ride battle, you’d still have some decently challenging fights on your hand, but it would actually feel fair and balanced, while teaching the player invaluable lessons about the importance of switching characters during battle. It’s just SUCH a terrible design choice to restrict the player to going Noah-Only for all the Chapter 1 story bosses, because the AI characters are simply unable to pick up the slack. After Chapter 1 however, my experience, knowledge and skills actually began increasingly paying off, and by Chapter 3, I know for a fact that I was defeating numerous Unique Monsters earlier and at lower levels that I had been capable of during my first playthrough. There were a lot of reasons for this, but a huge one was definitely me actually knowing what I was doing when it came to Chain Attacks, how to extend them as much as possible and how to optimize my damage output. And when I finally became about to Launch enemies the potential for monstrous chain attack damage absolutely skyrocketed, enabling me to defeat a bunch of Unique Monsters that I under normal circumstances had no business beating. Far better utilization of the party’s various Ouroboros forms was also something of a gamechanger, as during my first playthrough I’d only gotten around to taking full control of those transformations during the postgame, which meant that that the CPU party members would frequently be morbin’ out when I didn’t want them to. And the Ouroboros transformation have so many uses, whether it’s giving you access to all sorts of exclusive, extremely useful moves, covering the battlefield in helpful party buffs and enemy debuffs, or just providing you with added longevity if you pull too much aggro. And as I mentioned during the main writeup, the way your characters can have Classes that stand in stark contrast to their Ouroboros form adds so many additional layers to teambuilding and battle tactics. Some of my Unique Monster fights (and yes, my best battles were all against Unique Monsters as opposed to story bosses, more on the reason for that shortly) were almost unbelievably fun and epic, requiring me to use every trick in the book to eventually come out on top: chain attacks, party-wide revives, frequent character switches, all sorts of Ouroboros forms being used for a wide variety of different purposes, the works. As much as I love Xenoblade 2’s combat, by now I’ve pretty much fully come around to considering Xenoblade 3’s battle system to be superior. #Xenoblade3Writeup https://s3.poster.place/drc/fe8808488b5b554942607178f24724c59b58146f0d14297a7d8a98467f026047.jpg npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior @nprofile…r70d I wish PozStation would go away instead, but it's not like Xbox has been relevant in recent years anyway. npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior @nprofile…gdjx Manny be like: https://s3.poster.place/drc/878cac45c64d47796708cb64f2ade33353a28fc2c169cd29bcdd877bdfe29433.png npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior @nprofile…vwf8 Funny how I've pretty much heard NOTHING from the Western MSM about Russia steadily conquering more and more of Ukraine these past few months, but wall-to-wall coverage of Operation Spiderweb, which was a one-off thing that ultimately did nothing to change the tide of the war. npub1rjht784gdu2rah59343hft44lpn0n5q6nnd0ga9e9xwtdw0jn3tq5zuefa Christi Junior @nprofile…79tx Good.
