Ok, I haven't done one of these in a long time but I'm feeling like letting my guard down a bit.
Looking for new friends/mutuals. RTs would be appreciated
My general interests are:
Xenoblade
Final Fantasy VII
Pokemon
Most Nintendo properties
Sonic
Yakuza
DBZ

I don't know how other people feel about it but having Pyra and Mythra be in Smash while Rex and Nia got to be in Xenoblade 3 really feels like we got the best overall outcome for 2's main quartet.
Oh hey, it's the most misunderstood Xenoblade scene of all time. You know, the one where Shulk is not saying Mumkhar doesn't deserve to die but rather that killing him now risks creating a later situation where they can justify killing Fiora the same way.
You know, given how insane and obtuse fans can be with their theories/headcanons/etc. I think it shows what a wonderful job with their visual and implied storytelling that Monolith has done that Mio being Rex and Nia's daughter is as widely accepted as it is without confirmation.
So Nia hates heights and hates the cold. She unironically had the Cloudkeep built thinking "Teehee, They'll NEVER think to look for me here >:^)"

Given base 3's aversion to more nuanced Xenoblade 1/2 references this is definitely my favorite of these. (Also some art I got for it from
@chascoby_art
because why not?)
I've played xenoblade 3 for almost 400 hours and im still hearing new voicelines for bringing heroes to different locations i love this game....

Sorry, gotta stand up for my girl. How does Nia getting a happy ending impact Pyra negatively in any way? It's obvious as hell the two liked and supported each other well before that photo.
Also, I’ve decided to pretend the XC3 3 wives thing is not canon. In my head, Rex friendzoned Nia, Mythra is single and loving it and Pyra is the one he actually ended up with. Rex doesn’t have enough game to pull all 3 lol and also just no. P&M are basically sisters like??? no
A polygamous scuba diver, his cat, and a pervert fight against the pope, a cannibal, and his gay lover to reach heaven and restore god's faith in humanity
QUARTER-FINALS ARE OVER!!
HERE'S WHAT THE FULL BRACKET LOOKS LIKE NOW THAT THE SEMIFINALISTS ARE DECIDED!!
Unfortunately I wont be able to post these polls until next week, so plenty of time to think your semifinal votes and to convince people to vote your favorites!
Lying in bed, still bewildered that peoples' psyches are so damaged that they can look at this and spin it into a negative. All evidence in XB2 suggested that they love being around each other. What the fuck is wrong with our society to want some element of bitterness here?
I find myself being very hard on Xenoblade 3 at times, but considering how many contradictory principles its built on (being standalone and a sequel, talking about the future while celebrating nostalgia) the game deserves praise for working at all. It should be an absolute mess.
A really understated element to 1's character writing is the positive influence Fiora had on Shulk versus Zanza's spirit whispering in his ear. It was when she was absent that he most acted as the vessel Zanza wished for. Without her around, he'd surely submit like Arglas did.
The photo is completely consistent with their portrayal in Xenoblade 2. At best it means you fundamentally misunderstood the characters to begin with and didn't like them as much as you believed
Nia's expressions during this argument are absolutely heartbreaking yet certain "professionals" will tell you that she shouldn't be with Rex and Pyra.

The day will never come where I'm not prepared to defend this family's honor against anonymous internet strangers. They are my ultimate joy and comfort ship😤
I have to give Xenoblade 3 credit for one thing. The first time I beat it, I was completely focused on seeing THAT spoiler which had been blowing up the internet, and when I did I was laughing too much to pay attention to the ending, Now, though, Where We Belong fucks me up hard.
Xenoblade 3 needs an official timeline so badly. I can't make an ounce of sense over the order of events from before Future Redeemed. When did Melia get taken and Nia meet M?

Stop, HorNia check!
Post the last saved image you have of Nia on your phone/computer. (Be sure to credit the artist if necessary) The lewder it is, the longer you get to spend in an Agnian prison camp.
IT'S TIME FOR THE GRAND FINAL!!!
AFTER 2 MONTHS OF BLOOD AND SWEET SPILLED OVER COUNTLESS POLLS. NOW THAT REX HAS REACHED 3RD PLACE, ONLY 2 CHARACTERS REMAIN OUT OF 64
WHO WILL REIGN SUPREME? WHO WILL TAKE ALL THE GLORY? 🏆
NIA OR MIO?
TOMORROW. GRAND FINAL. 2 DAYS-LONG POLL.
Serious question, no joking here. What is the legitimate purpose of framing this shot this way? Unless it involves a villain arc like N, love triangles are the worst trope in fiction, and I can't praise Rex in 2 enough for subverting that crap in the most grandiose way possible.
Originally, the photo had me laughing too hard to pay attention to the rest of the end. Now that I realize their hands are pulled apart by the splitting worlds, it fucks me up every time.

Enormous thanks to
@aisha_venia
for the work. It's time for a fresh start with a fresh Nia. To all my friends, please don't forget to add me to your lists and such. Thank you again for your continued companionship and support!
