The more I think I understand what the game's mechanics will be like, the more I come to find that there's still more to figure out. I don't even have the game in my hands and I'm drowning in its depth of customization. Frankly I'm starting to get a little scared. What if I don't have enough drive to complete it?
I went for a few months around the halfway point of Xenoblade Chronicles before continuing that.
>>317725565
Well if you managed to play Xenoblade for an extended period of time, you might have an easier time playing this game then. I'm sure you'll be fine.
>Still 10 days away
>>317725565
You should do it like me.
Don't read up on the game's details at all. Just go in and have fun.
I haven't checked in on all the specific mechs, or all the monsters or systems or what have you.
Post husbandos.
I can't wait any longer.
Time's passing by really slow now.
Just let me play...
>>317726562
I know right, so much time left until December the 2nd
Literally buying a Wii U just for this. I haven't felt joy for a new video game in a while. Even for Fallout 4 and I've been waiting for that forever.
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/designing-xenoblade-chronicles-x/1100-6432549/
>Gamespot: I had to ask: was there any concern during development that perhaps cramming X with all these systems would be too much for non-hardcore players? What about those with a Wii U who just want a cool game to play, and haven't been as willing in the past to spend 40, 60, or 100 hours to complete a game? According to Takahashi, this less-committed audience isn't the audience Monolith made X for.
>Takahashi: "Since we're aiming for the next evolution in JRPGs, I have to admit that our original goal was not to aim for simplicity," he said. "We were looking for new directions and so that means adding new elements to an existing structure that people might have an innate understanding of. As such, I have to be honest, there is going to be some complexity that comes in, but I feel that we've created a really compelling experience from that."

That's happened to me a few times, but in this instance I just want the digital copy. I'll be too busy before the release date anyway.
Reminder that IGN hates it and their review will end this game.
The dub for this game is so fucking bland. They just need Johny Yong Bosch and they'll have the complete list of overused anime dub VAs. All of the MC voices are fucking garbage for both genders.

So... Fiora's a specialist in one type of voice, and, what, Shulk voiced someone you didn't like?
That's your reasoning for them being garbage?
>>317731030
This isn't a fucking circlejerk, if you want that you can go to reddit or gamefags. Every criticism of the game, you guys cry and whine that its just shitposters. As if people can't have legitimate complaints with the game. Go rot in a ditch.
>>317730742
>I swear guize, I can design better mecha than a guy who was paid to design Gundams
>>317731221
No.
>>317730742
But it makes sense for the light frames to have the same primary look. If you want something different, go with the medium or heavy ones. That, and some of the Skells available aren't on the pic.
>>317731217
>Fiora's a specialist in one type of voice

>>317731221
You argue like there aren't legitimate shitposters that do it just to fuck with people. There are both people that do it for that reason, and people with legitimate criticisms, but in both cases these threads aren't meant to be about criticizing the game, they're about discussing what about it makes people excited, or turns them away. There are also ways to give criticism that don't boil down to "it's bad and you should feel bad" because that IS essentially shitposting since it has no real substance.
You're the equivalent of a neighbor storming in to a party next door and screeching that their music sucks and to turn it down.

>>317731668
>Creator of Gundam
They didn't get Tomino, anon. They did get the designer of the 00 Gundams though, and say what you will about the show, the Gundam designs themselves are pretty great.
>>317731393
Please stop trying to stop me from responding to people. I don't really care if he is a shitposter or not. There are people that do really believe these things so, regardless of whether he's trying to get a rise out of me or not, my replies can serve as an argument to people other than just him.
>>317731337
I've been playing Xenoblade Chronicles recently. I legitimately enjoy Shulk's voicework. I admit that it's not the best voice acting in the world but things rarely are.
And it doesn't matter if someone has no range, if they're picked based on their type of voice. She doesn't need to be able to mimic Beast Wars Megatron to be able to do the kind of voice she does. Furthermore, she was picked because the type of voice she does in the game is "Classic", which is a deliberate throwback to the previous Xenoblade game, which falls in line with "being picked based on her type of voice."
It was to give players an option to have something similar to the original British voice acting if they would prefer that to the other options.
>>317731841
>p-p-please take me seriously even though you know from direct experience that i'm totally full of shit
>>317731934

How pathetic that you think everyone who doesn't share your opinion is one person. Fuck off.
>>317726562
I think the killer is how early reviewers got it. I feel like I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel to find info on the different gameplay mechanics. I just want to keep learning about the game, instead of listening to the same views and impressions on it.
>>317731652
So I can upgrade them to the level 30 and 50 versions, as opposed to straight up buying them?
That's pretty convenient. The mechs having a set level will reduce the stress on needing to grind their levels.
>>317731683
They don't have turrets on their heads. It's a shoulder-based platform for jamming more weapons on to. It doesn't need to be a turret.
>>317732062
>So I can upgrade them to the level 30 and 50 versions, as opposed to straight up buying them?
I'm not sure about that. I believe Skell upgrades have a limit, so you might still need to buy the next model once you unlock it, because it might still be stronger than a fully upgraded lower level one.
>>317731668
gundams are colorful children toys and many of them still look 10 times better than this

Its disappointing that there's less options than the JP version.
Also "LETS MURDERATE EM" is legitimately one of the most cringewoethy lines ive ever heard. Fucking NoA is terrible at writing dialogue that isn't for some silly Mario game.
>>317732185
Holy shit dude, fuck off. I haven't posted in XCX threads in weeks because I've been busy with school. I listened to some of the dub earlier today and was very disappointed. Just because someone disagrees with your opinion doesn't mean they're some fucking boogeymen that you've thought up in your head.
Get professional help, seriously.
So, while the retards are busy arguing, what class will you guys go with?

Personally, I'll be going with Commando, dual wielding has always be a fetish of mine.

>>317732738
Enforcer is probably what you should look into, then.
>>317732914
That's NoA localization for you.
>>317732608
They're in the fucking spacefuture and you're only seeing them from the front. They've got metals and materials that we don't. They're on what is in all likelihood a lower-gravity planet.
You don't know what kind of structure they've got, seeing as that's a bad angle for judging said structure. You're outright assuming the types of materials they're working with, and making your own judgment on whether they should be able to support that or not in an environment that may not have the same gravity as ours.
Might as well complain about the superfluous tron lines that in likelihood serve no real purpose or, if they do, are dangerously exposed.
>>317732691
It can. Cheesy dialogue, like humour, is a matter of preference. What makes one person cringe may make another laugh.

>Striker -> Samurai Gunner -> [Duelist]
Further expansion of the Striker line, with more longsword and assault rifle.
>Striker -> Shield Trooper -> [Bastion Warrior]
Branches into using a shield as a melee weapon, and a goddamn gatling gun that can rapid fire missiles as one of its arts.
>Commando -> Winged Viper -> [Full Metal Jaguar]
Further expansion of the Commando line, with more dual blades, dual guns.
>Commando -> Partisan Eagle -> [Astral Crusader]
Branches into using javelins/spears/lances/polearms as the general melee weapon class of javelin, and also uses sniper rifles.
>Enforcer -> Psycorruptor -> [Mastermind]
Further expansion of the Enforcer line, with more knife and ray gun.
>Enforcer -> Blast Fencer -> [Galactic Knight]
Branches into using lightsabers and Psycho Launchers, which are basically funnels/options/orbitars. At least one or two psycho launcher arts involve punching or kicking, or so I hear.
Why was the breast slider removed?

Are the skell frames balanced or will it be a case of bigger = better?
>>317733260
Whats the difference between longswords and photon sabers?
>>317733563
I don't think it's perfectly balanced, unfortunately. One of the heavier frames seems to have the best overall stats, or so I've been led to believe.
>>317733548
Mastering the final classes lets you use their weapons with other classes, and you can start mixing and matching arts even before that. The endgame is all about multiclassing.
>>317733684
One's physical and the other's made of light.
What if I told you guys that "MUH Feeling It!" made it into the generic battle dialogue even though it has no relevance to any of the characters other than being MC's male voice.
>>317733563
If you look at the chart in the OP, some are better suited to certain forms of combat, while others have different strengths altogether. What an anon said previously however is that class and division benefits and strengths factor into Skell combat, so for example, a character who fights ranged better than melee would probably do better in Mastema more than Amdusias.
>>317733787

The treehouse faggots are trying to push "hurrrr its an exoskeleton"which isn't even true since exoskeletons dont have fucking cockpitsbut they could've just went with Frame. Its one syllable like Dolls and doesn't sound like something that an edgy 12 year old autist would think up. And has pretty much the same contextual meaning as exoskeleton.
I swear, this is the worst localization treehouse has done in a long time.
"The Skelleton Crew" bullshit was what really pushed it over the edge for me. The word was somewhat tolerable before, but now i just angry every time i see or hear it when watching gameplay footage or reading about the game.

I'm a huge mecha fan, but I love the fact that you need to unlock the skells.
Once you get a skell, and then a flight pack, the world kind of "shrinks." Starting on foot for a while gives the world a more grand and huge feel, maybe even a bit intimidating. You kinda have to jump and hike around to get to high places, it takes longer to move around, all that stuff. But then the skells open up the world even more and make it fresh again. And then the flight pack removes all the boundaries. It'd be super lame to just start with the flight pack, but building up to it seems great.

>thunder thighs and short torso
Both heavies and the Inferno look retarded. They also have the only interesting vehicle modes. Fuck everything.
>>317725565
>they changed wels to verus
nrggg
>>317746369
That's exactly how I perceive it as being. I'm hype as fuck for Skells, but frankly with all the Division and Class work that needs to be done, I'd really prefer to cut a chunk of that out of the way before getting to Skells, so having a lot of time to do so before ever getting to them sounds wonderful on its own, before ever considering the storytelling and vidya value of needing to build up to Skell, and needing to build Skells up to flight. I have no problem with that at all. I just think it is so shitty of a dipshit reviewing to cry about a 300 hour game not giving him his mech in 5 minutes, and being tasked with actually needing to work up to it. What a complete crybaby bitch piece of shit.

>Psycho Launchers, which are basically funnels/options/orbitars
Funnels, you say...?
>>317740294
I'm feeling Irish all of the sudden.

Oh yes...
>>317747115
On foot though, they look more like this.
>>317729841
That doesn't always happen. I preorder a lot of games on amazon, and the only ones I got early were Smash WiiU and Alpha Sapphire.
So the way this game's story ends, the sequel has to be a follow up set at most a few years in the future right?
Chapter 1 (Xenoblade X) ->Discovering and settling Mira, looking for survivors of the White Whale, holding off the Ganglions strike team
Chapter 2 (Xenoblade Y) ->Discovering and settliny nearby planets, looking for other ships from earth that survived, fighting the Ganglions main force

>Used gun drones in XC even though sword drones were superior
>Funnels now an option in XCX
God bless Takahashi
>>317746369
kinda like a reverse of fallout 4's power armor right?
(you do get it right at the start right?)
Are there any Skells that let me do... Uh...
This?
Damn. This game would have been GOTY if it was made on a real plat like the PS4 or xbox. wasted potential =/ hopefully the nx or whatever the fuck it is will do the sequel justice
Just think, all the copies have been shipped. Somewhere in a wearhouse not far from where you are now is a copy you paid for and own.
Why can't I have it now, I want to play it now.
>>317747218
Looking at this makes me realize grateful that everyone in XC fought with weapons. Even Melia's Starlight Kick felt like it had more physical contact than those punches/kicks.
>>317725565
I think this game is going to overload me with details, a bit like chronicles
Can't wait for it to "click" and I can get comfortable with it
>All this people ITT still mad about Dolls changed to Skell
Listen, faggots both sounds retarded as fuck but since I don't have autismo and I couldn't care less about how my BIG FUCKING ROBOT name is since I'm going to kill xeno scum all over Mira all day long while doing God's almighty will along with my waifu Hope and I'm hyped as fuck.
Ao fuck you fucking weebs I bet if Skell was the original name and they changed it to Doll you will be complaining anyway.
>>317747461
(Also, I'm going to do my damndest to model Elma's suit after the Sinanju)
>>317747591
... i mean..yeah..they're literally punching their forcefield to shoot people. its not a real physical attack
>>317747565
>tfw literally have the game on my hard drive but can't play it until i download some small file that releases on dec 4

I want an ares with this colour scheme

>I bet if Skell was the original name and they changed it to Doll you will be complaining anyway.
arguing about hypothetical situations and making assumptions about hypothetical situations is a sign of autism.
>>317747824
Oh, I forgot about digital. That might be even worse.
>>317747638
That's exactly the point. We would be. True, they both sound stupid, but I'm not so conceited as to think it's acceptable to change around terminology coined by the creators of the game just because it originated in another language.
>>317747218
Welp. Looks bad ass as fuck. Either using that or whatever class a lance falls into.maybe both? Very new I am.

If there is, I'd imagine it'd be a weapon that could be equipped on any Skell. Unless one of ones on OP's image without a weapon explicitly stated had a starter fist art.
>>317747768
Because it goes three times faster than every other Skell?
>>317747461
Well the circle behind the mech is part of the Gear system, but I don't know if you can fire love love beams.
>>317747787
I didn't know that, my mistake.

TEN THINGS TO DO WHILE YOU WAIT FOR XENOBLADE CHRONICLES X IN TEN DAYS
1. Watch Gundam (or any mecha anime anyway, just ask >>>/m/ about it and see what they recommend). A new Gundam just came out, but if you are completely unaware of the anime, you can just start at the beginning with the original Mobile Suit Gundam show (or watch it abridged in three movies). I recommend watching Gundam Unicorn for the OST which is made by the same composer of Xenoblade Chronicles X, Hiroyuki Sawano.
2. Browse >>>/m/. They're one of the best boards on 4chinz. Maybe they'll also get you into toku.
3. Play Xenogears (or any of the other Xeno games). Xenogears is cheap on the PSN (and probably easy to emulate). Xenosaga is fairly difficult to find in stores from what I hear, but you can emulate an abridged version of Xenosaga 1 and 2 for the DS quite easily. Xenoblade emulates really nicely, or you can get it in stores. Its much more available and its also one of the only New 3DS exclusives.
4. Watch non-Gundam mech anime. Gundam is actually nothing like the Xeno series. Xeno games have often been about religion and philosophy. Obviously, the anime which is known for combining these two things with giant robots is of course Neon Genesis Evangelion, which was actually partially animated by the studio who animated the anime cutscenes for Xenogears.
5. Watch non-mech anime. The world in Xeno games is quite different than most mech anime. The worlds usually are more science fiction-focused JRPG worlds. Aesthetically, .hack// is probably the closest you're going to get.
>>317748180
>Starlight duster
FUCK, I love ridiculous names like this
>>317748312
6. Play other mech games than Xeno. Zone of the Enders is actually much more like Gundam than any Xeno games. I also recommend Shogo: Mobile Armor Division.
7. Play other non-mech games. Xenogears was Final Fantasy VII at one point. Both games are squaresoft JRPGs that made the genre a little more dark and mature. With the inclusion of Cloud in Smash, you should do yourself a favor and play one of the best JRPGs ever and one of the reasons we have Xenoblade Chronicles today.
8. Celebrate Thanksgiving. Your family will probably not see you for a while once you get the game.
9. Plan your black friday list and go shopping. Remember that Xenoblade is a large game and your current Wii U hard drive might not be able to hold all of the data from the game and the four downloads which will make the game faster.
10. Shitpost on >>>/v/ (what you're doing now).
>>317747951
>maybe both?
Shit m8, if you wanted to you could master both classes, then take them to a Class with arts you want to use with them.

>>317748394
Here's my list of shit to do in preparation:
Literally anything that doesn't relate to the damn game.I haven't been following this code very well.
>>317748312
>just ask >>>/m/ about it and see what they recommendWhy ask /m/ when there are already /m/en in this thread?
>>317747218
>>317747115
>that HUGE QTE button appearing in the middle of the screen, sticking out like a sore thumb
Whoever decided to add that to the game should be shot on sight.
So I see there are crossbow-like guns, are there any regular bow analogues? Even just a gimmick gun?
>>317748569
>that new getter robo pic

It's never bothered me really and for the life of me, I can't explain why.

1. Just started watch 0079, enjoying it
2. Maybe
3. Don't have anyway of doing that currently, will, do later
4. Let me finish gundam first, that shit is like 20 series long
5. Fuck
6. Check
7. Check
8. Europoor here, WERE ARE THE DATA PACKSautism

I always wanted to move it to one of the corners or something. At least it's quick.
I've had a hard time understanding what every individual stat did in XC and how they were relevant per character. In other words, I didn't know what gear to put on what character.
How do I learn to build characters and understand what characters benefit from what stats? I mostely like to know for XCX, because I'm not going to be playing XC for some time.
>>317748180

>>317748610
Never bothered me in XC, The game's auto-attack so it doesn't really get in the way and if it were hidden to the side, you'd miss the burst/party affinities more
