Jenseits von Gut und Boese


I wanted to finally play Episode III, but I realised that while I can recount all of Episode I and the first half of Episode II exactly, I barely remember the middle onwards of Episode II. I remember the ending cutscenes but I don't really remember any of the details of anything that happens after MOMO's subconscious. I played the start of the game a lot over and over, but I think I've only finished it twice. I first played it when I was 11 or 12? I tried to just watch it on Youtube to catch up, but it's hours upon hours of cutscenes, and I have the attention span of an ipad kid. I'll just speed through it. It is the shortest of the three, it shouldn't take THAT long.... (famous last words)
Being in the UK, I played Xenosaga II first as EP I was never released here. I fell in love with it, but I didn't like Shion much. Both now having played Episode I, and just getting older, I've grown to really appreciate her. That said, Jr.'s still my favourite, and by far the most interesting, so I'm not complaining the story seems to centre mostly on him...
There's something about video game water in this era. It's not completely realistic yet, but that somehow just makes it more magical?
