Xenogears

>Rather than a clusterfuck, it was rushed as fuck.

Well, no shit. Xenogears was Monosoft's first project and they were WAY too fucking ambitious. They were even planning six games for the series and they didn't even know if the first one will succeed. I think this even applies to Xenosaga as well.

>Monolith
user, xenogears was under Takahashi in Square at the time. Much of the resources went to Final Fantasy.

>They were even planning six games for the series
Three games spanning six episodes (of which Xenogears represents episodes 2-5), although Xenogears is self-contained enough that it can stand on its own. There were no guarantees for it to get sequels, but Takahashi had them planned out anyways.
>I think this even applies to Xenosaga as well
Yeah, Xenosaga had 6 games approved from the outset. Unfortunately, Takahashi overestimated what he could cover in a PS2 game and the plan fell apart after the first game.

I don't.
Wasting money on anime adaptations is only necessary when the base material requires advertisement.

This.
I would take the money and use it to fund an original project instead.

Is that thing even have story?

disc 1 = 26 ep tv show
disc 2 = 3 movie

I would make an extraordinary first season and then a CGI chibi animation where they go to the high school as second season.

Drop the idea and switch to a Suikoden adaptation.

?? But it’s objectively the worst Xenoblade.

At least it has plot...and PLOT.

Xenoblade X on the other hand is missing the former. It wasn't bad per say, but man, there are just way too many loose ends

No thanks, much prefer Xenogears cast of characters.

Why do people forget about the original? That one is the best of both worlds

I make a comedy about the cast in chairs giving interviews about the plot.

It certainly has great girls, but at least the MC in Xenogears actually cums inside his waifu.

Xenogears actually started life as a final fantasy game, but they decided the tone was way too dark for an FF game.
It got the equivalent of an M rating in Japan, kinda surprising it got a T rating here with all the blood and nudity

Fuck, I'd kill for a remake that fixes disc 2

>a remake that completes disc 2

FTFY

I'd kill just for a rerelease that unhecks the translation.

They haven't even done that for their PS1 FFs yet. Even if it got some kind of port it wouldn't be retranslated.

50h of that giant hamster thing being crucified. Also she get to fuck the MC like she wanted.

That makes me mad.

I would remove Chu-chu, fix some dialogue so people would stop repeating things a character last said, remove some of the nonsensical decisions from the dick known as Citan. Pace the 2nd disc in a way that isn't a huge exposition machine. Remove the plot convenience of the 2nd upgrade of the ship where they conveniently found parts when launched by ID. Less talking, more fighting.

I think it would be a great cartoon with the right voice actors. I'd have to spend most of my budget toward that, though.

What soundtrack would you guys keep in the anime? Up to at least 5.

I dunno, I don't think a show about Americans doing American things on a planet that doesn't make any goddamn sense would do very well.

I'd rather make a SOL spin-off with the lolis living in the Yggdrasil: same setting, but focusing on the characters rather than the plot. I'm thinking of something along the lines of Last Exile The silver wing, so everyone will probably hate it.
Also remove Chuchu.

The last three episodes would be disc 2. About 90% chair monologues and the rest short montages. The fight with deus is part of the last episode's ED.

Honestly not using the entire game soundtrack would be an outright crime.

Xenogears could've been a really good anime. But just like G Gundam it was seriously inspired by it needs like 50 episodes of runtime which is pretty much impossible in modern industry.

Sequel when?

It was a completely finished story. Krelian has fucked off, the conflict is solved, Fei and Elly get their happy end. There's nothing to write about unless it's an indirect sequel that takes place on a completely different planet in another part of the timeline.

I would mind having a new entry in the same timeline as long it's good.

Have interns shit out some 3DCG garbage on as little money as possible while I spend the rest on coke and whores.

Forget a true sequel, I'd like a total remake. Updated everything, and most importantly, the "finished" version of disc 2.

Go fuck yourself, pre-SNK executives.

Xenogears was mostly written by Takahashi's wife, that's why it's so different compared to other Xeno titles

The only other Xeno she worked on was Xenoblade 1 but she didn't do nearly as much work on it, Xenogears was 90% her creation

Xenogears was full of unrestrained 90s, including child prostitution and mass genocide. Total remake will be way too restrained.

Just follow the story as-is. There isn't really all that much padding. Gameplay eats up a lot of time but that kind of thing would be condensed down a lot in an anime. Even the storytime chair in Disc 2 would work fine in an anime format.

Honestly no idea which studio would be right. I think it needs to be one that can do a bit of that old school coloring style. Maybe they could go for CG robots since that's what the original cutscenes used and modern anime CG is at least on par with that nowadays. Even if the CG was clunky it'd probably add to the nostalgia factor if they could replicate how they looked.

>and it has better girls
Oh yeah, neptunia 1 amd 2 are so good.

>Xenogears was mostly written by Takahashi's wife, that's why it's so different compared to other Xeno titles
This is false, it was a joint effort between him and her. She wrote the original concept + Bart parts, and he re-worked it as a mystical love story.

Same with Xenosaga, you can generally notice which parts were written by Saga (Jr., Ziggy) while the other were written by her husband. She has a very specific writing style.

Fuck off, Xenoblade 2 literally recycles Xenogears ideas and it applies them to a stupid as fuck low pandering story. Just look how trash is Mythra/Pyra is in term of development compared to the previous Xeno's main girls.

>including child prostitution and mass genocide.
The prostitution was only mentioned, the mass genocide still happens in a lot of RPG.

You can't remake Xenogears anyway, it's too big and ambitious. Just look at the clusterfuck that FFVII remake is.

i like xenogears so much

but zoomers ruin it

Yes you can remake an ambitious game, you just not have to be a complete retard like Square's FF team that tries to reinvent the fucking wheel several times instead of making a REMAKE.

The absolute least I'd expect as an improvement is to make the deathblow system less "just do the best deathblow you learned every turn, bro". Still keep it in some form because it allows for certain special moments to occur, like accidentally stumbling upon Hyper Mode while still using Weltall-1 and styling on some random encounter enemy with black laser beams.

>Yes you can remake an ambitious game
And what costs? Seriously, people need to replay it to realize how big Gears is, and this is without being complete.

If only its girls were in a game with an interesting, inspired, complex story. Like Xenogears[/spoilers]

Put a nice chunk of the budget into fully animating this glorious scene flawlessly and in its entirety. There will be mating pressing.

The fact that it's incomplete is exactly WHY people want a remake. Gears deserves a remake more than FFVII ever did.

How did they manage to do a superpowered evil alter ego so well and in a non-cringeworthy way?

You don't get it. They are not going to remake a cinematic RPG with more assets than FFVII that didn't even sell 1m.

It would be more expensive than DQXI.

She's nothing compared to the absolute goddess that is Elly.

We all get it, faggot, but that doesn't mean we can't dream about it.

Because it was one of the originals, and that concept wasn't overplayed yet at the time.

That is true, I only played it relatively recently after knowing about it forever, few years ago, but I can only imagine how jarring the complete shifting of the gears heh in story and gameplay must've been for everyone playing it back in the day. And that was before anyone cared about the internet too so it's not like everyone had the story on how the game was rushed to meet an already extended deadline.

But what if Xenogears get a remake with gameplay similar to Kingdom Hearts, just like every SQEX games these days?

For all intends and purposes Id is just having fun instead of being a serious edgy evil alter ego. His every appearance ensures that someone is going to get their shit dunked on in hilarious way. Same with Grahf who acts as goofy ass henshin Master Asia rather than serious antagonist.

I would watch it just to hear Wakamoto ham it the fuck up as Metal Face.

My idea of an animated adaptation's cast:

New VA cast:

1. Kaito Ishikawa - Contact's Incarnations (Abel, Kim, Lacan, Fei Fong Wong/Id)

2. Yuko Sanpei - Dan, Tolone

3. Hiroyuki Yoshino - Timothy, Hammer

4. Saori Hayami - Alice, Marguerite "Margie" Fatima, Dominia Yizkor

5. Mamoru Miyano - Citan Uzuki/Hyuga Ricdeau

6. Mie Sonozaki - Yui Uzuki, Myyah/Miang Hawwa

7. Kokoro Kikuchi - Midori Uzuki, Chu-chu, Cherubina/Kelvana

8. Himika Akaneya - Counter-Existence/Anti-Type's Incarnations (Abel's Elhyam, Elhyam from Zeboim, Elhyam/Sophia, Elhyam van Houten)

9. Takahiro Sakurai - Grahf, Jessiah Black

10. Nobunaga Shimazaki - Batholemew "Bart" Fatima

11. Hiroshi Kamiya - Sigurd Harcourt, Roni Fatima

12. Kenyuu Horiuchi - Maison, Isaac Balthasar, Stone/Stein, Captain of the Thames

13. Toshiyuki Morikawa - Shakhan, Ricardo "Rico" Banderas, Khan Wong/Wiseman

14. Hiroaki Hirata - Carlin Ramses/Kahran Ramsus, Nikolai Balthasar

15. Hiroyuki Yoshino - Hammer, the Wave Existence

16. Kouki Uchiyama - Billy Lee Black, Rene Fatima

17. Misato Fukuen - Maria Balthasar, Seraphitia

18. Sumire Uesaka - Emeralda

19. Akio Ohtsuka - Rattan, Erich van Houten, Taura Melchior

20. Kikuko Inoue - Queen Zephyr, Medena van Houten

Xenosaga had a limited series based on the first game. It was whack.

Select an element.

If Knight of Fire isn't in your top 3 you lacking

If muthafuckin' WANGS isn't in your top 3 you lacking

Now, some changes from the game:

1. Fei and Citan aren't captured by Aveh soldiers after fighting the Sand Worm summoned by Grahf when they first meet him. Instead, it's Bart and his pirates who surround Fei and Citan.

2. The tournament mini-arc in Bledavik is summarized that the only fights that are animated are Fie vs. Dan and Fei vs. Wiseman.

3. An entire episode focused on Jessiah's backstory.

4. No implied Chu-chu orgy that took place at the end of the Maria Arc.

5. Actually show Sophia's Omnigear following Fei and company.

6. Summarization of the Solaris Arc:

a. No Timothy lookalike.

b. Sophia's Omnigear appears and saves Elly from Hammer, thus preventing Medena from having to get herself killed and instead fatally injuring Hammer.

c. Fei and company vs. Grahf and Executioner Myyah/Miang is omitted, skipping to Erich van Houten appearing to buy time only for him to still die at Myyah/Miang's hands like in the game.

7. During the search of the Anima Relic that modified Rico's Stier that ended in a fight with roboticized Hammer, the latter fully explains Rico's past before the fight.

8. Actually depict Shevat and Thames being obliterated by Deus' Angels.

9. When Fei and company besiege Deus for the climax, they are assisted by Jessiah, survivors of Elly's former subordinates, Margie in the Vierge, Ramsus, and the Elements.

Give me Seraphita

>4. No implied Chu-chu orgy that took place at the end of the Maria Arc.
Dark ID let's play is funny, but shouln't be taken seriously.

>5. Actually show Sophia's Omnigear following Fei and company.
This is obvious a result of rushed schedule, come on.

Were they gay?

Because technically ID isn't the alter ego, Fei is.

Though I guess he still secretly is an alter ego too

Give up unless I'm given a lot of episodes to work with. If that's not in the cards, a series of OVAs that animate the best scenes in the game.

I'm pretty sure Xenogears sold more than a million copies.

It's actually sold like 900k. I'm sure of it because they made a deal that it would have gotten a sequel if it had sold more than 1m.

Total sentence imposed is ten-

Are they still able to have kids?

There's like 6 sequels though
