Let's talk about the GOTY.Ignore shitposters.
but op
you are the shitposters
not GOTY until ~I~ play it, g
Somebody please help me, I am so hyped for this game that I'm afraid my high expectation will ruin it all for me.
These two weeks are going to be insufferable
>>317494356
Trust me anon, the game will be amazing.
Except for the mechs, they make every battle piss easy.
>>317494471
Some guy said there's a bunch of monsters that will one shot your doll and/or have anti mech weaponry the other day.
>>317494471
But the mechs are the number 1 thing I'm hyped for.
The feeling of stomping on a poor creature or fighting a giant monster of similar size is satisfying to think about
Sawano is a shit composer
>>317493884
>super mad about idea of NoA fucking up the translation
>really fucking want to play this game
man, I don't know if I can hold out a couple of weeks to buy it used. pressure is on.
>inb4 autism, I know.
Who preordered the SE from Best Buy here? I've never preordered anything from there before but they had that offer of the free release date shipping upgrade or whatever, are they usually good with getting it to you on release date?
>>317494780
>Not finding the key we lost
>Not needing some protection if you're losing your way
>Not needing a bigger gun
>Not [barely comprehensible german singing]
>>317494471
Mechs wont help you that much as there are enemies that can easly destroy yours. It actually makes you think a bit before going into battle.
Perfection
>>317494831
Used games will still net them a profit.
Waiting to buy it used won't do anything.
>>317495605
got a source on that? I assumed buying used from gamestop wouldn't show up on their stat sheets.
Are the sidequests better than in Xenoblade or is it still "kill x number of monsters" or "get x number of random pickups" shit

How does leveling effect Cross's stats? Say I wanted to make a high agility Cross (or whatever stat replaced agility). Does Cross have stats that are naturally average across the board with stat customization dependent on gear, or can I choose where stat points go on level-up, or what? I know all the other characters have pre-defined stats, but I'm not sure how that works for a custom character if you wanted to specialize in something.
>>317496040
A huge improvement. The side quests in XCX actually makes you wanna do them because you may know more about the story of the characters and its not only gather something or kill x monster. You will probably do them but keep in mind, if you start a sidequest from a character like Elma or Lyn, then you have to complete it, otherwise you wont be able to progress through the story.
>>317496562
Gamexplain guys said agility was split into 3 stats, so its way harder to make agility tanks now
Or something along those lines, it was in one of the Q&As
>>317496562
Level ups augment your stats automatically, all the customization comes from your class, your gear, your gems and your faction.
>>317496562
I'm not sure, but I'mmostlysure that different classes influence different stats like Fire Emblem. i.e Duelist has a very high attack stat.
So if Telethia are in X, are the High Entia?
That would make me the happiest man alive.
>>317496562
each character has different base stats. cross is more balanced, lyn has the highest base defense. So certain charaters are more suited for a certain class than others. Cross's main draw is being abale to mix and match classes ala Robin from fire emblem.
>>317496859
No. it's just reference. This is not XC 2.0
Just give me this game already. I'm tired of waiting.
>>317496859
No High Entia unfortunatly. XC and XCX are to different games but some references wouldnt hurt.
Hope there are wing accessories so i could make my own high entia
>>317497621
I'm 99.99% sure I've seen wing accessories in some screenshots before, I think there might be bat wings too, not sure

That's criticism.

>>317496123
>deep customization options
You guys don't know what a GOTY is
>>317499037
Literally this, why do you guys pick shit tier garbage for GOTY
>>317497389
You and me both. Been tired of waiting since fucking May.
can you change the division you join or just class?
does division have any bearing on the game other than the small bonus each one has?
>>317493884
>ignore shitposters
>OP's first sentence is claiming a game that he haven't played yet GOTY
I mean just I pre-ordered the SE an hour ago and I'm hyped as fuck but starting Xeno threads with such claims it only leads to shitposters taking over the thread.
Stop being a faggot.
>>317499753
Yep you can change your division at any time.
Doing tasks pertaining to a division will raise your division rank which gives you better bonuses and shit from that division.
>>317495604
Good thing it'll be censored
Is this right?
Elma - Tara Platt
Lyn - Eden Riegel
Tatsu - Dave Wittenberg
Lao - Matthew Mercer
>>317493884
Hopefully this game makes me not regret buying a Wii U.
Been looking forward it all year.
If I can get at least 300 hours of gameplay from this I'd be more than happy.
>>317495605
anyone gonna back this up?
>>317495067
He just roles the same kind of goddamn sound for everything is his problem, no attempt to match the tone of style of whatever he's composing for. It's like his entire soundtracks are actually just tie ins that are composed separately from whatever they get attached to like is usually the case with just theme songs, hardly anything ever seems to fit anymore. Also shitty grind incomprehensible vocals and bass drops in half the tracks that again never seem to fit. Just let the guy do his own thing and stop using him so much please Japan, I'd like soundtracks that work with my games and anime.
>>317500127
Nope.

Why people complain about the american dub?
I understand that is not as memorable as the britbong dub of the first game but claiming is plain bad just lead me to think they're just hardcore weebs.
Don't having dual audio sucks but the dub is just good enough.
>>317501179
It's called being monotone. American English is notorious for that. Britbong isn't as monotone.
>>317501179
The dub actually has both American and British voice acting.
http://nintendoeverything.com/xenoblade-chronicles-x-will-have-american-and-british-voice-acting/
Usually, it's nice to have dual audio in a game where you're not playing it in its original language, especially since the previous game had it. There are a number of valid reasons why Xenoblade X may not have dual audio, such as not enough disc space or potential licensing issues due to there being so many voice actors.
>>317499753
yeah you can change divisions anytime you want however it costs money to do so
One thing they NEED to learn to do is make better side quests. I don't mind the game basically being an offline MMORPG, but the most interesting Xenoblade Chronicles' quests ever got was that one with the altar in the marsh in the Ignis fortress.
I know this might get my lynched, but even vanilla World of Warcraft had creative quests, and that was barebones as hell. I'll never forget a quest in the Eastern Plaguelands where, after a long chain of events, you take an ancient artifact to a ghost town and have to take part in a ghost-version of the town's last stand that took place years ago.
The story's good, the combat is good, the level design is amazing. The monster designs are perfect.
All they need is someone who can actually make decent human models and better quest designers.
>>317500750
>Tfw downloading at the rate of about 1MB/s
>An hour left
>tfw special edition
Hyped. Picking it up right after my exams, hopefully I'll have time between work for it.
I've heard there are tons of recruitable party members. Someone know a rough estimate of how many males/females there are to pick from? Are all encountered in the main story, or will some join only after doing a side quest?
>>317501729
anon, that's what x is focusing more on. nips and importers say many of the sidequests are even more interesting than the main quests
>>317501952
Even so, I still hear that most quests, even the heart-to-heart quests, still come down to 'kill this many monsters' or 'gather this many items'.
I haven't played the game yet so I don't know for sure, but all I have to go on so far is importer impressions and the journalists who have their hands on the game at the moment who, I will admit, are probably fucking retarded.
>>317502250
this
>>317502153
it's an rpg anon, everything can't be cutscenes and narration. why do you think they made the combat system complex, so you can ignore it and say killing monsters is boring?
>>317496825
Why would I want to join prospectors?
Sounds boring as fuck.
>>317502583
those minerals are what provide fuel for your skell and materials for the sexy armor that you want to put elma in. They also provide a steady source of income to fuel said skell, and purchase said armor

I don't give a shit about whether or not Potato has different panties than the other girls and that you can't have tiny titties, that is nothing compared to the grandeur of the rest of the adventure. The only thing I'm worried about is how fucked the story is gonna be if we get the sequel and they decide to change everything back to what it was before it was localized.
>>317499437
More like since January fucking 2013
>>317504902
I was fine with waiting when the game was still in development, but the moment it came out in Japan was when I started getting both jealous and anxious.

>>317501729
They do, man. The way you get your non-DLC 4 extra party members is one such example. I haven't seen anyone also get Hope from the church except the nerd from GameXplain.
The quests are fine anon.
>>317505115
That last EU promo is 10/10
I still can't fucking believe NoA isn't releasing a Wii U/XCX pack. They REALLY have no fate in that game whatsoever.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTGAwHbluZ0
I'm excited but I don't feel right buying it when it's censored. It's just going to bug me knowing I have an inferior version of the game. Also I don't want to support censorship. I will probably get it used so I don't have to give nintendo money.
>>317505502

It's not actually. They left all the costumes intact barring Lyn's.
>>317503334
>>317506042
Do we know if all that blood is intact in the English version? Forgive me if the webm IS the english version, I don't want to completely spoil it for myself
I'm sure it is in but after 8-4 getting rid of blood in Xenosaga 3 I felt it couldn't hurt to ask, even though Treehouse probably has final say on everything
>>317506634
does anyone have ANY answers on what has been removed or mistranslated yet?
POTATO BEST GIRL
No lie, this game probably IS most deserving of GotY. Its map is 5x the size of FO4, and it's packed to the brim with content and customization options. It has unique gameplay mechanics, and even FUCKING mechs. The story is also MILES better to MGSV and FO4.
Sadly though, it'll go mostly unnoticed while some overhyped trash game will get the title. Pity.
Someone pls tell me. Can I look at stuff on my gamepad while autowalking?
>>317506634
If there is no blood in the english version then only an idiot would buy this game.
>>317506894
>No lie, this game probably IS most deserving of GotY
>>317506634
3's censorship was done by Namco's admission, they even did the same for 1 & 2 which was localized in-house. Derrick and Chugga were even asked about blood and they said there blood here and there in scenes including battles with monsters when you break their parts.
>>317507031
Jesus christ that animation and character design is fucking atrocious
>>317506634
Well no one who currently has a copy has said anything either way, but I don't think they would go that far considering it says animated blood on the ESRB rating.
>>317507037
>Derrick and Chugga were even asked about blood
That's a very specific question to ask.
>>317507225
The person who asked if there was a lot of it and if so if there was an option to turn it off, guess that person is squeamish.
>>317507037
Thanks
>>317507225
People probably asked it because of the same reason I asked
>>317507341

>>317507521
>It could be someone who has a kid you know.
None of the Xeno games are for kids.
>>317507610

>>317505115

You know, now I'm kinda getting what you guys are saying. It just sounds a little "wut" when you hear it spoken by the gravely voiced man
>>317508359

>>317508389
>The Monado one
>The actual potato

>>317508389
>that potato
Fuck. When did this happen?
>>317508549
Month ago, when those Japanese preview videos got translated.
>>317508449
>Gears
Yep, so much this. Skell sounds awful. Doll sounds soft. "Jump in to a Gear and save humanity"
There. Fixed.
>>317508759
Gears is a bit too on the nose.
>>317509140
Frame?
>>317508759
Now I'm kinda curious about what the other translations will call them. Like, the French translation of Xenoblade was extremely close to the original Japanese, to the point of calling Metal Face, Black Face, and all.
>>317506042
Gore and Guts is a ok in america bro
Why not just call the mechs "Faces" or "Face Units" as a callback to the first Xenoblade?
>>317509463
That's actually not that bad
>>317509202
I would be fine with that.
>>317509463
Seems to sarcastic for me
>I'm riding my face
>I want to get a face right away
>D'you see those faces and their transformations?
>You need to get a face license
>>317509573
the equipment parts are actually called frames in x. they would need something to replace frames then
>>317509463
Because that's a terrible callback, they aren't even remotely similar.
>>317505115
Why are the Eu promos so much better than the North-American ones?
>>317509670
>He annoyed me so much, I kicked his Face
>>317509757

>>317507769
Who fucking gives a shit? So kids might see some shit. I routinely have to hear fucking brats that people bring into rated R movies
>>317509259
It will probably be skell everywhere, I believe there were textures and shit with Doll on it too. They would need to edit them for every region then

I felt even sadder when I realize after paying my bills I couldn't afford a Wii U in my shitty third world country.
Then out of nowhere, this happens. I'm so happy I will be able to play this!
Do we have any info regarding the online components?

You won't be able to play with Japanese.
Online takes from Demon's Souls in that it is indirect, but the only time you play with anyone is during world boss fights.
>>317510251
holy shit you're right
>>317494780
You must not be on a different planet.
So what is online like?
You play through the game like an open world RPG but then you can team up with other people to do some quests?
What if you played through the game and "killed the final boss" and shit?
>>317510251

>Tfw will probably not have access to the data packs when I get the game since I might get it early
>Will have to deal with super long loading times
Oh well.
>>317511365
I don't get the hype for her. Does anyone care to explain? It's definitely not the looks after all.
>>317511571
what the fuck is this
Does anyone have information about the save, if it saves automatically (after each monster killed/quest done/death) or manually?
If it's the latter, can you save anywhere in the map or you have to go back to the base or click on a certain object placed, a crystal for example, on the map to save?
If the character dies, are you teleported to your base and loose a % of your money (combined to the automatic save it would be the worst) or go back to your precedent save state?
>>317511685
Well for people who played the game she is apparently a really well written character and extremely likable.

>>317511721
It's Lin, are you blind?
>>317512006
they will rate it something like 7/10 on average because it's a niche weeb game and nintendo didnt pay them
I expect a lot of "too much grinding", "geaphics not up to par" and such
>>317512101
Japan shat all over MH4U on amazon cause it was "too hard"
So that means nothing. Japan is actually casual as fuck when it comes to video games. The more you know.

I just finished Xenoblade yesterday after having it on my backlog for 3 years. Don't think I'm gonna replay it anytime soon.
The problem is that Takahashi thinks he's an amazing writer when he really isn't. All of his characters are flat, his storylines, when they try to have any deeper meaning, end up terrible, and any meaningful dialogue he tries to put out comes out as hamfisted.
If he were smart he would have just stuck to cheesy Shonen stories like Xenoblade, which he actually pulled off incredibly well. In a shonen you don't have to go crazy with your story, the characters don't have to be complex, and you get to have fun with your dialogue.
Figures that Xenoblade Chronicle's story fell apart whenever it tried to be something more than it was. It also comes as no surprise then that Xenoblade Chronicles X's story is said to be shallow and uninteresting.

Fuck off.
>>317513568
Yeah, the hi-res UI makes sense. Whenever I think HD texture pack, I think of the cutscene where the group encounters Riki and there's so many things wrong with it. Wish I had the image.
>>317511860
I just finished it last year, and all it does now is remind me of my ex-girlfriend. I'd rather try stomaching Xenosaga for the second time than go through that.

The US commercial is actually great. If you want to sell normies on a game, telling them its basically space marines kicking alien ass on an alien planet is a great way to sell the game.

>>317515380
Why is the new season of Garo so fucking boring? It's the first time I actually dropped a show I was genuinely looking forward to, but after that Kaguya episode I just couldn't continue. All the MCs are flat, I don't give a fuck about the story and the action and animation are dull and low-budget
Don't get me wrong, season 1 had uni-dimensional characters too, but at least they were endearing (with the exception of Leon until mid-season when he got some much needed character growth), the plot was focused and clear and the fights were entertaining.

Holy shit. I thought I was the only one. She and I olayed the first 75% together. Then she moved very far away. It was months before I could go back and finish it. I would turn it on and here the music at the title screen and just started bawling because I missed her so much. Would still cry at parts of the game like when I heard the music in your hometown and such.
I did eventually manage to beat it. I just wish she could have been there for it... ;_;

My ex just wanted me to play Xenoblade along with Earthbound, one of her all-time favorite games ever. I played through both of them practically back to back, and by the time I was done, I learned she went and cheated on me.
Beyond the Sky and Smiles & Tears just ain't the same anymore.
Am I the only one who is kind of bothered by the fact that they are calling the game Xenoblade Chronicles (Ex)? It's supposed to be Cross so why would they market the the game add (Ex)?

>>317518413
X is cross in Japan.
Just so happens to be a letter in English.
So technically the game should be Xenoblade Chronicles Cross in pronunciation.
>>317518413
Because baka gaijins can't understand the subtlety of Japanese bullshit I guess. Like how "W" is used as "Double".
Honestly I'm more surprised Nintendo is apparently leaving Star Fox Zero's logo alone in the west despite it containing moonrunes.

My ex and I, we binged on Xenoblade leading up to hear moving across the country for med school. It was such a special and indulgent period that we shared together. We were still so in love when she moved away. I never had a break up as heartbreaking as that...

>What?
It's an expression to say that the characters are not charismatic.
>I don't get this one, is he offended or does he not like the rap?
Here his point of view on the music (translated from french, please be gentle) :
Xenoblade X choosed 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 some tracks that you will have. 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.

From what I hear of impressions it sounds like the characters are a highlight especially with the affinity quests, so I can safely ignore this critique.

Killing many monsters, or gathering many items is the core gameplay loop. Here is how you know if a quest is going to be generic trash- if you picked it up from a quest board or a computer, its going to be some simple and straight forward, pure gameplay stuff.
If you get the quest from talking to an NPC, its most likely going to have an interesting story attached to it

I literally just did it the other night. All it takes is smart use of Chain Attacks to sneak extra topples or heals in. I haven't even gone to get the Ether Cylinders yet.
Slowly but surely my hype is dying down for this game.
Been hearing some dissenting opinions on parts of it (from reviewers who got it early). I'm still buying it, if only for the exploration and mecha but some design choices sound really annoying.
>fetch quests tell you to find item but not a good enough indicator of where they will be

I hope we'll be able to change time of day on a whim again.
>>317502583
You get to do everything for everyone, so you might as well get around to it eventually.
>>317520771
Fiora deals more damage than a Buster, try chain attacking with 2 people it's just redundant
it's not even that hard to fuck that worm up when you have chain attacks to topple them
>>317521165
I'm just saying. Dude's a beginner.
>>317521350
Oh, you can switch without losing progress?
>>317520491
yes I did but Im at bionis' leg and going up to that bridge and there is just a swarm of mechon up there. and they just fucking destroy me.
>>317521276
>team switching is made more annoying by having to find the specific team mates you want to switch out in the city
Fuck, really? There's supposed to be a lot of characters to recruit. It would be very helpfull to have 'em all on one screen.
>>317521279
You can, but you need to be at a specific building to do so. They're scattered all over the world.
>>317510472
You join all of them.
>>317519430
Not sure which one I want to go with, but Mastema seems kind of neat.
>>317519430
Don't you need four of them anyway, one for each party member? Or do they come with their own mechs?
>>317521428
Yeah. Neo-LA really needs the work.
>>317521425
Honestly I just brute forced my way through the game the first time, the only named enemy in the first two areas I had a problem with was that fucking poison spitting caterpillar since it just melts Reyn.
The only boss I was ever underleveled for was the final one and I managed to take him down there. This time I'm trying to actually play smart. If you realize that you can use chain attacks for more than just damage early on it definitely helps a lot.
>>317521464
oh that area. That's a legit excuse actually. I would beat them one at a time. Try using the focus command so everyone attacks one mechon and kills them first.
>>317521279
At first you can't, you need to go to benches or housing areas in various buildings. Later you get access to sleeping bags so you can do it whenever you want.
>>317521592
This is about YOU and YOUR mech anon
Think about yourself once in a while
>>317521678
Huh, you didn't have any trouble against Xord? Kinda surprised, since many people get destroyed by him.
>>317521464
That part is really hard. Use the monado buff and give orders to your teammates on focussing on a single target. It's easy to lose track when there's so many coming at you.
Also, once you go up one or two levels the fight gets a lot easier.
>>317521276
>team switching is made more annoying by having to find the specific team mates you want to switch out in the city
I personally like this, I know it's annoying from a gameplay perspective but it feels more immersive.
>>317521842
I wiped once on him I think. By the first two areas I just meant Colony 9 and Mag Mel Ruins, not Bionis Leg or the Ether Mines or anything.
>>317521464
You can always try chipping them out from a distance. Taunt one of them from far away and pray the others won't come to slaughter you.You got Sharla, right?
>>317522010
Gotcha.
>>317521276
>fetch quests tell you to find item but not a good enough indicator of where they will be
Like in the last xenoblade, you can disern what items belong to which monster just by reading the name
>team switching is made more annoying by having to find the specific team mates you want to switch out in the city
Pretty sure you can have 4 different people in your active party, 8 to switch from, and 18 in total.
>affinity quests lock story quests until completed and can take a while to complete
Affinity can be raised quite easily by doing many things such as fighting monsters and making decisions so it really isnt a big deal. Plus its a fucking jrpg, why wouldnt you do any sidequest?

I love how diverse these areas can be, like the forest area won't just be a jungle but several different layers to it with giant valleys with waterfalls to vista with giant hill areas, with canyons with giant mushrooms for you to hop around.
God I love this game's art design.
>>317522107
-Fetch quests dont just require things from monsters, there are also those diamond things out in the world required and what people are bitching about since they dont give you a general area
-What does that have to do with the actual annoyance of having to go back to nla and find them just to switch teammates when you want to
-From what's been spoken some affinity quests sometimes require large amounts of resources that take a while to obtain, but they dont tell you what the affinity quest entails until you pick it so if you want to do story you literally cant until you complete it (hampering some desire to do a lot of them in succession)

Lock on an enemy, press up and a purple curving arrow will show up instead of your Talent Art.

On the middle art thing, if you go up and down you have an ability throw like a rock or something from a distance.

would you guys buy censored XCX2 on american region-locked NX?
or glorious uncensored XCX2 on japanese region-locked NX?
>>317524174
I'm not buying anything NoA put their grubby hands on ever again.
>>317521950
Ugh, it sounds really fucking shit. I switched team comps all the time in XC just to spice things up
>>317524174
I don't give a fuck, as long as I can explore. You know, the main point of the game.
>>317524270
Better pull out that spreadsheet and put down all the NPCs and where they are at what times
is so weird seeing sharla in a bikini durning cutscenes.
So I heard something about this game running better digitally?
Like, if you get the physical version it'll have long ass load times unless you download some pack things?
I was ready to buy before 2014:
>Fatal Frame V
>XCX
>Bravely Second
>FE: Fates
Now, I'm buying:
>XCX
>>317519964
>There is one certitude: it's the most courageous, insane OST you will ever heard.
Sawano, the absolute madman
>>317524447
Yes the packs help out a lot.
>>317517397
>Not being able to take a joke
What a faggot poster
>>317524447
Yeah that's pretty much it.
Reading stuff off the HDD is faster than reading off a disc so you can download the packs to your console to speed things up.
>>317524678
I agree, you are a faggot poster.
>>317524447

I already beat the first game though shitposter-kun. Just cuz I don't like it doesn't mean it's gonna stop me from playing the game.
>>317524830
why is there no comparison to digital version?
only physical and physical + data packs
>>317524981
I doubt there would be significant difference between digital and disc with data packs.
>>317524981
Presumably the digital version will be a little faster than physical+data packs. Or maybe much faster.
Either way I'll have to buy an external hdd I guess
>>317523721
>That quality
Jeez dude, don't be afraid to lower the resolution to keep it from turning into a pixelated mess4MB limit and sound outside of /gif/ when hiro?
>>317524981
There isn't much of a difference between a physical with data pack and digital copy.
>>317493884
But anon you are the biggest shit poster of them all
>>317524981
Think of it this way. Are there big differences between a digital version and a physical version with data installed on the disc? The answer is probably yes, but it's definitively barely any different.
>>317524981
Because the digital version runs as fast as the physical + data packs, so there's no point.
>>317515297

Doesn't this game have a system that lets you equip certain armour but have your character look like they are wearing a set of different armour?
Think I read that was a feature a while back but was wondering if I am remembering correctly
>>317526139
Yeah it does.
>>317526139
Yes, armour slots and fashion slots.
>>317526139
Yes. I heard it in a Q&A for this game.
>>317526139
It's called fashion equip in Japan.
And yes you can give the stats of any armor to any other armor of your choice. I.E. the bulk of a heavy armor to your bikini.
>>317526139
Why the hell isn't that an option for literally any game where you wear armor?
What adventures do Shulk and company embark on in this sequel?
>>317526224
>>317526268
>>317526276
Is there a weapon slot?
>>317526396
the adventure of death
they're dead
>>317526396
They don't. They're not in the game.
>>317526410
yes, there is a gem crafting system akin to XC in XCX. it's alled augments i think. But unlike XC, where say agility maxes to 50, in XCX stat augments have no limit, so you can beef it up to all hell.
>>317526410
Sadly no.

We Disgaea now.
>>317526559
I wasn't talking about gems, I meant for the fashion equips. Can I make my weapon look like something else?
>>317526689
>ryan
At least pretend you know what you're talking about, bud.
>>317526779
oh using stats of one weapon for another? sadly no
>>317526807
that's ryan alright
>>317526807
but you posted ryan anon whats wrong?
>>317526559
>stat augments have no limit
what
>>317526807
He's right as ryan, though
>>317527015
You can upgrade augments to the point you can oneshot the strongest monster in the game

Who is that creature? :3
>>317527657
will this game be even more fun than naked dunban at level 60 destroying lvl 108 avalanche abasy?
>>317527810
>>317527832
>>317527865
With some good grinding you can do some crazy shit even without a skell.The superbosses are much more fun to fight against if you go solo
>>317528112
Your lvl caps at 60 and the strongest tyrant caps at lvl 99.It sure will.
>>317527657
>>317527343
how would you even go about making gems that strong?
>>317510472
I'm going for Reclaimer because rare drops are a pain in any game ever.
>>317523514
There are some aura spells monsters can cast that are kinda like spikes but no 100% always on spike bullshit, and no topple spike shit either.

I was told this was only available after completing the Main Story.
Was that changed or something?
Everyone talks about it like it's readily available, including GameXplain.

YES, no more 20% exp gain cheat on dolphin to get a decent challenge
>>317528868
Reviewer copies.
>>317528868
In the base game, you could only unlock the ability after you'd beaten the game.
The DLC, however, unlocked it from the beginning.
The Western release of the game comes with the DLC integrated, thus it's unlocked from the beginning.
>>317528868
In our version I think it is seem like.
>>317528868
the american and euro verisons of the game include the dlc's in jap version for free.
You can even sleeplock enemies in this game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1T5pDDxKLE
>>317529013
Does that includeediting my characteror is that still locked until the end of the game?

What's a good TV to play WiiU games on? I have a small non-HD one.
>>317528868
>Was that changed or something?
US version comes with the DLC pre-included. Buying the DLC in the Jap version gave you immediate access to the fashion sloth. So there.
>>317529197
A large HD one

Holy fuck.
Is there a list of classes in the game and what they do?
I'm not sure what to pick.
>>317529197
just get a computer monitor that supports hdmi, alot cheaper than tv
>>317527657
>gets sent flying
>the way it slowly falls
>>317528675
Cool, I can live with that. Is there some kind of indicator when they use these effects? I had a hard time telling in the original Xenoblade if enemies had a spike effect without keeping a constant eye on my health.
>>317529617
Yep, you can see when an enemy has an aura active.
>>317526619
Melia is used to it.
>>317529749
This game may have some issues of its own, but holy the mountain of improves is so vast that the good outweigh the bad by a long margin.
>>317529795
I honestly have no fucking clue what they were thinking with Melia other than "let's see how much we can make one character suffer".
>>317529058
>99999999 while solo on foot

There was an image floating around, just check the game's wiki.

Infinite inventory space + being able to hold 99 over every items and every additional ones get auto-sold alone makes it a much better game than Xenoblade.
That and visual indicators of your positions based on the enemy (back, side, etc.) so no more taking guesses and hoping your back slash works
>>317530098
I guess those gathering quests aren't a big deal, just don't take many or at all and just wait till you eventually get the amount of items needed that you want and just hand them in to the board.
>>317529058
>video content to sony music entertainment (japan)
when did this become a thing?
>>317530098
>Infinite inventory space
Fuck, that's it, no matter what, this game is better than the original.
>>317530098
>every additional ones get auto-sold
Every game should do this holy shit
>>317530223
>>317530230
finally a jrpg that does something right for once.

that is the best string of words I have ever read
>>317529058
can't wait to do this with shulk's voice screaming 5 times a second.
That was a good thread.
>>317530709
Remember to not open a thread with a blatant shitpost like this one next time, we might not be so lucky.
how does xenoblade compare to mh? only other kind of similar game i've played is monster hunter 3 ultimate which i enjoyed albiet it was a very grindy.
is this completely different?
>>317531110
yes
>>317531110
They have nothing in common. Besides bigass monsters.
>>317531181
So if i enjoyed monster hunter would i enjoy this?
>>317531304
I guess? Do you like RPGs with a ton of exploration? Do you like uncommon battle systems? If you do, sure. Give the first game a shot, and if you like it, be sure to play X.
>>317531110
the only thing I can think of is the online portion
>>317531304
No. I enjoyed Xenoblade Chronicles but I don't bear Monster Hunter kind of gameplay.
