She's still the best protagonist
>>729620748Unironically one of the best female protagonists of all time
BO'OL'O'WA'UH
I didnt like how hard she was circle jerked by everyone in-game. I did like her more than Rex, though.
Mio Tummy Erotic !!! ToT
>Your mom is 1000x sexier How do you even cope as Mio.
>>729620748>>729621361Noah is the protagonist, retard.
Mio is good. Though her and Noah come off as kinda passive a lot of the time.They are kinda forced into being the party's parents for a lot of stuff.
>>729621902They are more like deuteragonists
>>729621523She's not a brit though. She says wotuh.
>>729620748Gato sexo
>>729622030Not really. Noah is the protagonist and Mio is the deuteragonist.
My legally married wife, Eunie, is better.
>>729622168Taion, your kids are ready to make snow angels, hurry up and get off the computer and get dressed
>>729620748Absolutely fucking mogged by Na'el. Sad!
>>729622098Mio is a female so it's gata
smells like a /vg/ refugee thread
>>729622396This is sadly the fate of most xenothreads.That or 2 posts page 10.
>>729622332You get the idea, Mio sex
>>729622030The game would have been better if Mio was the main protag. She has way more going on to make her a compelling character. Noah is a Gary Stu. Shulk was at least autistic, and Rex was a bum that got bullied.t. only played like 40 hours of the game.
>>729623036>She has way more going on to make her a compelling characterNot at all. The only things she cares about are Noah and flutes.
>>729623036I think an easy fix to Noah would be to show that he also had it in him to become like N.Our Noah is just so nice and it's not really clear why he is so much better in particular.
>>729623036Mio is mary sueish too, but she's better than the bland blob that Noah is.
>>729623269>would be to show that he also had it in him to become like N.I mean, he literally makes the exact same choice N made in the post credits scene.
This could be us fr fr
>>729623475Not sure that entirely counts as "the same choice". But regardless, I just think it would have been good for Noah's character to slowly bridge him and N throughout the game.
>>729623216It's been awhile since I played, so I might be misremembering things and misinterpreting things. I thought Mio was more compelling since she was the closest to dying, and the >emotional weight that came with that.>>729623269>>729623345A few ways I thought of improving Noah:>Making Noah the Ultra-nationalist of the group that is the last to agree teaming up, and after being won over by Mio's kindness>Making him a normal grunt instead of an off seer and/or special forces agent>He really needed a scene early on in the game where he has a mental breakdown or he just needs to be more emotional>>729623950L-lewd...
>>729624036He leaves behind his friends to go be with Mio. He'll probably never see them again. And the scene is even framed just like that one scene with N choosing his path
If you guys want to go down a small rabbit hole, there's this possible yume that is obsessed with Zeon on Pixiv.
>>729624517>reddit filename
>>729624204Not really sure how you came to that conclusion.Considering we KNOW the worlds end up merging again (presumably pretty fast) I always assumed it was Noah perceiving the effects of the merge faster.I get what you mean about the framing though, even then it's not really the same choice as it has completely different consequences.
>>729624694I'll be sucking her toes soon enough, I swear
>>729624751Yes, that was where I got the image from. I then shared it to the 4chan image board.
>>729620748Im kinda sad XC3 didnt get any recognition. It's so much better than games like E33
>>729624973I don't think it deserved goty or anything, but it not winning best soundtrack was absurd.
>>729625074Almost like it's a popularity contest and AAA studios have big sales all the time so a niche franchise like what we got is doomed from the start
>>729624795>Considering we KNOW the worlds end up merging again So what? He's a kid, it's not like he has an airship where he can just go visit Eunie and Lanz whenever. He'll probably just grow up with Mio and forget about them, since Mio is all he cares about anyways.
>>729625262Why would he forget them? They're his friends and he remembers all the years they spent in Alpha's Za Warudo
>>729625385>They're his friendsThey're only like 10 when he gets teleported away. Do you remember everyone you were friends with when you were 10?>he remembers all the years they spent in Alpha's Za Warudo[citation needed]
>>729625514...yes? I remember all the people I've called friend, ever since I was 5. That's pretty normal, especially for a tight group like Noah's.
>>729624808It's funny that I stumbled upon that while just browsing Xenoblade 3 fan art and memes. Zeon and Ethel seemed like interesting characters to me, and that's how I inevitably found that person on Pixiv.>>729624973>>729625074I think XC3 gets the right amount of recognition. Outside of the pokemans, Xenoblade is Nintendo's flagship rpg series. At worst, the story is a flavor of the month anime. Plus, the gameplay is fine, nothing amazing. They really need to borrow from CRPGs and tactics rpgs for Xenoblade 4.
>>729620748LOL!
>>729625616If they're so tight then when he did just leave them and not even bring them along to see their own partners?>remember all the people I've called friend, ever since I was 5Okay but it's not like you've talked to all of them recently right?
>>729623036Both Mio and Noel have 0 personality besides playing the flute.
>>729625706XC3 story is kino dude. What other game do you outright steal another guy's girlfriend? That shit is OG as fuck
>>729625779I chat with them every few days, mate. Not always in person, but we always stay in touch. You just suck at life in general
>>729625074>it not winning best soundtrack was absurd.Don't even get me started on that.>GoW Ragnarok wins best soundtrack despite its OST being general ambience and orchestral slop>Lead composer has his shitty Zoom box blown up to give his speech because he couldn't even be bothered to show up despite the show being in-person again after the coof>Stutters and bumbles through the entire thing because he obviously had no particular inspiration or drive when composing the soundtrackI don't even necessarily care about XB3 winning but there's no way the judges listened to any of these games' soundtracks and thought GoW was the standout over Xenoblade or Metal Hellsinger; they just defaulted to the most popular game on the nominee list like they always do.
>>729626037I highly doubt you stay in touch with every single person you've met since you were 5.
Discount Elly
>>729624973No it isn't. XC3 is so mid. You'd have a point if you said 2 or X instead
>>729625802Fair.>>729625956There's NTR? I didn't expect that. I got to the point where Noah and the gang decided to destroy a canon from the black faction.
>>729626282Yes you steal N's Mio body and cuck him hard. Shit is total kino
>>729626282There isn't any netorare. It's a bad joke without any joke
>>729622247Impliying he is not playing some map painter with the one child that inherited his autism
>>729623036Would also improve the game by having M as the batshit insane one instead
>>729620748>lets make nia but shitter
>>729626621Saars...
>>729622098wish i were a drawfag so i could make a mio version of this one
>>729626508Nah, that's cringe.
>>729620748Japs be like>we need a weapon for a female character>how about mini hula hoops?
https://youtu.be/EMp-Jry9neg?si=cVlFX7Ykhuq375WK
>>729627903Kino
>>729620748She's kinda boring, I liked the cat tats from the dlc though.
>>729622108No. Just because Noah is the first npc you gain control of doesn’t make him the protagonist. The story is Mios story
>>729628631It's Noah's story retard. It's told from Noah's perspective.
Wonder what the next game will be like
>>729628709No it’s not. Who narrates the chapter breaks?
>>729628845I demand another space opera game. Xenosaga is the only Japanese video game I have ever seen get space opera right
>>729628901Narrating the chapter breaks doesn't mean they're the protagonist retard. It's Noah's story. It's told entirely from his perspective. Including the post credits scene which is arguably the most important one.
>>729628845Worst girl in the entire series.
>>729629063She’s not as bad as poppi but yeah she’s shit and evil woman lovers should kys
>>729629003>character the entire game is framed around and whose drama is climax of the game is the protagonist>the boy who mostly just witnesses events happen is the protagonistRetard
>>729628845SHANOOYA
>>729629063
>>729629193You don't know what a protagonist is, retard.
>>729628845Hopefully none of the shitters from XC3 will show up.
>>729629119>poppiwhat? she was the only good character in blade 2.
>>729629572Every party member in 2 is more interesting than the entire party of 3. And more interesting than Shania too.
>>729620748She has the sexiest design and I want to impregnate this cat.
>>729623036Japs are too much low test pussies to ever make an AAA title with a cute female protagonist. They started doing manbeast technically female protagonists to please western journos, but they remain mortified of putting an actual girl into the main role.
>>729624943Go back faggot.
>>729629119I will fucking crucify you.
>>729629820Xenosaga dumbass. And trails in the sky
>>729630598None of those are AAA.
>>729629820Resident Evil 9
>>729628845Return to the Blade Gacha, but it's 『Stando』powers
>>729620748Wrong, she lacks beans.
>>729629442 Based take. Let those walking metaphors for trauma stew in whatever timeline they end up in. I don’t need pseudo-deep monologues every five minutes while I'm trying to explore a cool sci-fi world. Give me back the mythic bullshit of XC1 or even the insane dumb fun of 2. 3 was just melancholic filler stacked on a wet cardboard cast.
>>729628845Hoping for something more outright sci fi, like Xenosaga and how Star Ocean should be but they never get it right.
>>7296343421 and 2 were full of mumbo jumbo too though. It's part and parcel of Xenogames
>>729634036Nah that was the absolute worst mechanic ever made.>Let's have a party member that just stands behind you and watches lolfucking gay.
>>729629442Just move on from the legacy stuff. Monolith needs to prove they actually stand by XC3's messages about not stagnating and being stuck in NOW. Sink or swim.
>>729634578Difference is that 1 and 2 had enjoyable stories and characters to go along with it.
>>729624089The reason why Noah is like he is is quite literally because he is a fractured, incomplete person, he lacks all the passion and emotion that N has, just like how N lacks the perspective and logic that Noah has.
Noah is based
>>729629442If it happens a few decades after 3 half of the cast will be NPCs.If it happens a few centuries later we'll get something like ojou Ghondor and surfer Shania.
