The Xenoblade 2 datamine shows some really interesting things, including major implications regarding the ending.
- First is that Pneuma's Level 4 has a name, which is Infinity Saber and it's description and audio file implies it's the move Rex and Pneuma do against Aion. Nothing surprising there.
- We finally know what Mythra/Pyra say at the ending thanks to text files and its "Hello, I am Pyra/Mythra" which heavily implies that while they're back, they lost their memories.
- HOWEVER another line is in the ending text files that says "Hello, Rex" but that doesn't match the lip flaps. I think we were supposed to get good/not as good endings but they simply went with the memory loss route ending
- There's also evidence that you may have been able to choose "Pythra" as a name for Pneuma, as audio lines for Rex calling "Pythra" in battle are present. Not really sure if this would factor in the story or ending though.
- Last is that there's an 8th (including Jin and Malos) unknown playable Driver in the text files called Hollo. There is literally nothing else in the files about this, just the name. They could be anything from a dummy test character to an actual scrapped character to a future DLC character.
The ending now will make me cry for another reason if Pyra/Mythra got reset.
As the Blade voice files contain sounds for opening chests/falling/getting collectables it would be cool to have Pyra/Mythra as Drivers; if Malos could use Blades due his Aegis status, then the girls should be able to do the same.
