"With that game we'd learned how to create locations that are fun to explore on a budget," he explains. "If we had no restrictions at all in terms of costs, then for example we could easily make a varied and interesting map simply by creating textures and models for four or five different to use in a single 20km squared area. But within restrictions we had the difficult task of creating varied and fun locations using just the textures and models for a single kind of environment."

Guess since they got a good idea on how to make a big open world hopefully we will see another shorter than 3 years.

The only part thats like monster hunter are some of the online quests. The combat is basically kind of like an MMO. You spam abilites and junk and wait for cooldowns mostly. Characters autoattack on their own. I know that sounds kind of shitty but I had fun with it in the first game. Download the Wii game and play it to see if you'll like it.

Don't forget to select the soul voice call outs to fit your play style and also to have party members whose call outs support your play style.

this game has so much customization potential.

until the the squad build meta is established at least.

The place I order my games from usually send out their games 4 days a head of the release date to ensure people get it in time, and I usually receive it the day after it's sent... So hopefully I'll get it as early as wednesday.

I love how every video about the game is just people talking about how fucking deep everything goes. Levels within levels within levels yet everyone talks about how that it all works out somehow. And that because of all of that no matter what you do you always feel like you are progressing something.

Also. And yes we already know what he is going to say. But I'm happy he was one of the major place to actively talk about this all the time.

I find I don't need heals at all anymore, chain attack healing is plenty. I sometimes have to pull in Shulk for his shield nonsense but then sometimes I kill things so fast that they don't get to use their super moves anyways. It's hilarious to me that as a little girl I can just dropkick these giant robots and topple them at will.

A metagame is a game that exists outside of the game you're playing, based on what strategies you think will be best effective against your opponent's strategies. In a game in which all other players are working cooperatively with you, your "opponent" is merely the game itself. Building a team in that sense isn't a metagame. That's just the game.

Considering I'm using a $5 flash drive to load up the data, I'm not certain I care for the flash drive to begin with since it's a minor cost for the use.

How long would you think it would last? It's not like it could potentially break my entire game, as it's just used to load assets, which if it fails will just start loading from the disc.

Reposting the translation of a piece of this review about the OST.

Xenoblade X chose the hard mode on all the elements of the game. Listen to the music. It will shock you at the beginning: the first fight will be rythmed with a flow of rap. Not the Wu Tang Clan nor the NTM (french rap band) kind of rap. Imagine the kind of rap that you can listen in anime openings. It's after multiple ingame songs that we understand that those songs are the core of the OST. The tracks are adapted to the situations, sometimes epic, sometimes nervous, and sometimes they stay quiet. In town, the «hey hey han han» hip hop has a slower tempo at night.

A restaurant serving all the dishes because «it's in the menu» will fail some of them. The music in XCX is some sort of basterd mix of Evanescence, Linkin Park, Hatsune Miku and Osaka beatboxers. There is one certitude: it's the most courageous, insane OST you will ever heard. There is at least a track that you will hate. Those who have watched Attack on Titan and Kill la Kill are used to the energetic work of Hiroyuki Sawano. Advertisers would call it «dividing» or «cleaving», psychanalists would call it «suicidal». But wether we like it or not, when the singers shut their mouths, the melodies are great.

>>318274382
They are, but what I'm saying is I wish the industry was held to a higher standard.

Hacks like Todd and Kojima get overhyped for their "ingenious" when they can't write a decent story to save their lives, while genuine artists like Takahashi and SoraYa remain ignored.

Thus, we never see any genuine progress or creativity in the industry.

You know, we have genuine creative minds with passion for their work, but they remain overshadowed by overhyped tripe.

I mean, in other media like cinema, and anime, and TV, sure you have generic garbage that's overhyped. But minds like Kubrick and Anno get the praise and recognition they deserve.
