Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
Went back to XB3, can't get an ascension quest to start despite doing all 4 triggers last time I played. So instead I am making sure every colony has potatoes. Love this game.

Consul A is a party member (and possibly Mythra's daughter), Glimmer has a Zohar blade core and the way she's talking in the trailer she might be Rex's daughter, Z called Alvis god the gently caress is happening :tviv: :f5:

I'm thinking that Glimmer is an amalgamation of Pyra/Mythra/Pneuma in a form, perhaps recreated by Origin of the daughters of both aegises as one person. Her name in Japan is Kagiori which basically means fire and light (apparently, dont shoot me). The hair's not quite fully Pyra coloured, it has big Mythra elements to it and Pneuma's ponytail silouhette, fully complete core crystal. She could definitely just be Pyra's though too.


I bought the Pixel Remasters for Switch thinking my gaming diary was clear until FF 16 so I could take my sweet time and play them leading up nice and slowly.

Nintendo clearly said "thanks for the money lmao play the game you already paid for instead"

I assumed it was all part of a collective plan for shareholders pleasure.

Anyway I find ChadRex hilarious mostly because I considered him the all time example of the OneShota trope basically. That whole kind of loser wimpy looking kid thats outshined constantly in the story by not only the oldwr male cast but the older female cast as well. I guess Hope from FFXIII is the other example that most comes to mind now who even by LR returns time wasnt suddenly a man tank like Snow.

Wouldn't they be Rex's kid with Mythra? The redhead is almost definitely his and Pyra's daughter, I'd imagine, which is also a bit weird because she also wields a lance. Iirc it was a pretty common fan theory that Cammuravi was their kid.

Evening, patrolmaaan.
I’m curious to see how the timelines work for Rex and Shulk to be here.
Assuming M/Mio is Rex’s kid with Nia then Matthew is his great great grandchild (+ a few decades since it wasn’t the first incarnation of M/Mio and N/Noah that had a kid) but Rex is younger than Matthew’s grandad.

I can understand Glimmer being a similar age to Matthew despite being his great grandmother’s sister because she has the flame clock brand so this is probably a reborn version of her, but I didn’t notice the brand on Rex or Shulk unless it’s hidden.

I forgot how much I love Colony Mu. And how into potato farming Zeon is. I was trying to get (endgame spoilers) Nia's ascencion quest, but turns out I need to get someone to level cap on her class first so i ended up doing a bunch of sidestuff in Colony Mu and that's just so good. We invented croquettes :3:

Isn't (major XBC1 and 2 spoiler) Alvis a computer AI that was in charge of the disaster that caused the worlds from XBC1 and 2 to be created? If anyone is the god in this trilogy it's him.

Alvis is the third sibling to Pneuma and Malos and I think unlike them he’s got full access to his powers so yeah he’s basically the closest we have to a god.

Jeez, didn't realize that DLC was coming so soon (and from what I understand it's like the XC3 equivalent of Torna?). There's also Jedi Survivor, Zelda, and FF16 coming out in the near future. Big year for games.

Horizon DLC came out today and apparently the map is like a third the size of the entire main game lol. Two days ago I was wondering what I was going to do to fill the couple weeks between finishing that and diablo 4 (which will fill the time until ffxvi) and now I'm like "oh no I don't have enough time for all the games"

Gosh, I love the colonies so much. Their stories interconnect so good. Colony Mu gets a lil story about reinforcing the gate after a battle exercise and then a Mobius shows up. I wonder who the gently caress it could be since i'm pretty sure they all die if you do all the hero unlock quests. Turns out it's Triton just standing there getting blasted by all directions and being his usual goofy self

only three of the characters they showed are from earlier games, so it'll probably explain the rest.

I've seen people theorize other stuff but I'm just going to assume that A is related to Alvis somehow, maybe in a similar way as M and N were to Mio and Noah, until proven otherwise

Trailer looks good. Hyped for this and to see how the trilogy wraps.

Looks like Prison Island returns, and we get moebius A as a playable character. The voice for one of the new characters (Glimmer?) sounds like Pyra.
