Xenosaga | E1: Let the Saga Take You [Introduction]

Retrograde Amnesia: Comprehensive JRPG Retrospective

Hi. Welcome to season five of Retrograde Amnesia. As we let the Saga take us, we’re talking about when and where Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht came out, observing the will to power, establishing Xeno-links, finding inspiration in pornography, resolving to finish the soundtrack, treating cut-scene length like a threat, losing to Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball, socking the doorknob for spoilers, agreeing Xenosaga was the most important thing to ever happen, forecasting an existential crisis, inserting a zohar key in a zohar shape, and observing the light from the nether. You’ve read the document, now play the game.
