That's ALL we see of Sellers in EP1 and 2.

For a villain tied to the Miltian Conflict, Joachim Mizrahi, U-TIC/Ormus and all the rest, he gets almost no development in the series. I don't expect his character to evolve or anything but he needed more screentime and perhaps just a bit more on what he did.

Hell, he was so underrated, they didn't even see fit to let us know what happened to him in EP3. He's the ONLY antagonist this happened to.

I like his more than obvious homage to Peter Sellers/Dr. Strangelove, though.

And they really should've elaborated on what happened to him. The Database doesn't say he died, so I'm assuming not, but wtf kind of closure is him driving off his little hoverchair from a thirty foot drop... really... slowly.

Woah, I completely missed the fact that Sellers was in the first Episode of Xenosaga. I have to say though that his new voice for Episodes II and III fit him better though. I am glad that Sellers at least played quite a part in Episode III though. OMG Spoilers: My assumption to what happened to him was that his fate was pretty much the same of everyone else in the universe except for those that lived through black hole thing in the end. Granted, being an important villain that he was, I guess the creators could come with something about how he survived, but since I doubt we will ever see another installment of this game I am just going to continue to assume that the guy did not make it.

Yah, I've also mentioned this once; how I was wondering where he went to. It's very anti-climactic, and I was kinda hoping for a battle with him. Sellers went out in a very disappointing way, as far as I'm concerned.

Super Transforming Hoverchair of Doom Attack!

=P

Honestly, the idea of a fight with Sellers is just funny.
Xerno
=P Yes, I was expecting machine guns and rocket launchers to pop out of his hoverchair, and several other nifty gadgets (making it a hoverchair worthy for 007). But alas, it was not meant to be. ;p

Obviously if there were a fight against Sellers, it would be against some sort of Doomsday device. Yes, this device would ensure that no life could exist on the surface of the planet for up to 100 years. We should start moving the important people down into the mineshafts.

At the end of the battle, Sellers would stand up, and shout "Mein Fuhrer, I can walk!"

I think he got plenty development in EpIII and his final cutscene is one my favorites. Also he did a good job answering must of the unanswered questions that sprung like wild flowers throughout the series. A fight with him would have been interested, and that last time, I was expecting a battle, but wasn't too let down when it didn't happen.
Grahf
I think we would have seen more of him and possibly have a fight with him if the series hadn't been cut to three episodes. A lot changed when that happened and it seems that many parts of the plot had to be changed or removed to accommodate this. A good example being the whole (KOS-MOS vs. U-DO thing that was discussed in Episode 1 and the role of U-DO in general)

As far as I know, Shion's arc in Xenosaga was only supposed to last 3 episodes. The only reason it was rushed was because the first two games didn't cover enough ground (or at least, that is my understanding), although it's true that some things were probably concluded which wouldn't have, or at least concluded differently. As far as I can tell, Episode III was always supposed to conclude the majority of the story. I think it's only the final end part which really was rushed, I still don't buy chaos's role into the whole thing and Abel's and Nephillum's explanation was quite sketchy. Who really knows? It's all just speculation on my side. I can't help but feel that the majority of what was planned in episodes 4, 5 and 6 was never touched upon.

At the very origin, Shion's arc would take two episodes. It was made to be three when they realized they'd have to release Episode 1 and Episode 2 as Episode 1 and Episode 2 rather than just Episode 1 like they first planned. Watch the earliest trailers out there. The scene where chaos and Jin talk at Jin's house is done with Ep. 1 graphics, with Jin wearing goofy looking Citan glasses, etc.
