FIVE DAYS AND COUNTING
WHO /CE/ or /SE/ here?
I feel like by the day the game finally releases, I'm going to become a hysterical fucking monkey waiting for the package to arrive.

"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.

>Regular game id £40

Nah fuck the LE. Doesn't look anywhere near worth the price tag.
>>318272304
Keep tapping it anon. Nintendo might fuck up.
>>318271861
You just reminded me that I forgot to cancel my order. Thanks, anon.
Man I need to stop coming to these threads. I'm probably not going to be able to get the game for another couple weeks.
>tfw I got part of the story spoiledthey're androidsor something like that, is it a big deal?
>>318273675

It's a pity it won't be recognized as GOTY, because thus far, it honest looks like the most deserving.
>>318274056
GOTY awards go to "The game we heard about the most" usually.
The only Japanese games that stand a chance are MGSV and Bloodborne if people haven't completely forgotten about the latter by now.
Not enough marketing.
>Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal to get X guide book for $15
I don't even fucking want a guide book but man does it look nice
>>318273587Everyone selected for exodus was killed and uploaded into not-kadomony. Then there were robot copies of everyone in the lifeholds to help secure NLA and set up kadomony. Except the consciousness data link to control the robots was broken but somehow the robots didn't drop dead and that's the big mystery of the game
>>318274163
Yeah, I know, and that's why it's a pity. Especially considering how much shit FO4 was.
Is the game out yet?
>>318274278
It's not really a pity Anon because GOTY awards have as much importance as you give to them.
By now you should realize that your opinions are more important than the opinions of some random journos, it's enough for the game to be your own personal GOTY.
Who /this title cannot be launched because it has not yet been released/ here?
>>318272304
This is a really weird rifle. Shouldn't there be a hole in the barrel so the bullets have a way out?
>>318271861
Is this at all similar to monster hunter? Cuz I tried playing that and hated it. Trying to figure out if I should get this.
>>318274409
I know your pain family.
I don't know if I should preorder both editions in case one isn't in stock like the last time I ordered an LE, but when I get both I have to waste my time sending the normal edition back
Otherwise if it's December 4th and I get an E-mail again saying sorry shits not on stock I'll probably go mental
>>318274170
Shit. Thanks for that heads up anon. I didn't know about it.

>>318274871

Up to you.
>>318274757
I saw that. How else would you get it down to the $17 (4 me) ?
>>318275035
>Prima
Nope. Nopenopenopenope.
>>318275008
I'm best friends with amazon.
>>318274871
It's hardcover and 502 pages. I like having that physical swiggety swag, and since I'm getting the Special Edition anyway, I figure I might as well complete the experience. If I use the internet, I also might get spoiled.
>>318274950
Even before then they were shit. I remember back when I used to buy guides as a kid there was always a lot of wrong information in some of those brady guides.
So is the combat as shit as it looks?
I really wish someone would just surprise me and buy me a WiiU. I dont want to buy one, but I want to play this.
>>318275123
USA? I got it to $20 and that includes shipping.
>>318275140
That's my thought on it. Since I'm getting the Special Edition with the nice book art book I was thinking might as well get that giant guide. Comes with a nice art cloth thing too it seems.
>>318274539
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.
>>318274871
usually not, the information isn't as good as what you find on the internet.
>>318275491
>spam
No you fucking don't. You were playing the game the wrong way.
>>318274871
i seriously doubt anyone buys them for the infos, internet is a way more viable source
the book itself is fantastic tho, i ordered mine like i did with other titles
Who /picking it up on the 2nd of Dec already because friends with owner of local small game store/?

>>318275608
some stores have been selling it since Friday already...
>>318275687
No but German
>>318275672
That is a good man
>>318275608
Ayy. Maybe earlier if the guy receives it before.
>>318275761
who can I blow in germany to get an early copy
I'm dying here
>>318275752
He's not wrong though.
>>318275830
Well I could buy two and give you one
But then you'd have to blow me.
And I'm not gonna let some random nerd blow me, you'd have to at least be a cute trap
>>318275928
nah fuck you I'm gonna blow the store owner that is bro enough to break the date or nobody
go ahead, buy two copies so you shove one up your ass
>>318275752
>Cranky took over NoA twitter and called out sites for bashing games for being too hard

>>318275565
That would be awesome, actually.
>yfw Sigurd is actually Elma's ancestor
>>318276334
They could do a lot of cool things with pokemon, but they refuse to do cool shit.
So this comes out on Friday?
trying to finish the previous game
I just beat Egil last night and then the game MGS4'd me with cutscenes. I thought I was close to the end but I guess not.
Think I can finish this off before X? I've got 7-8 hours today if all I do is play it, and maybe 3 hours per night on average for the rest of the week.
also, MELIA STRONG
>>318276580
Yes, December 4th, a day after the video game awards
>>318276436
>GF won't even make a game that has a smooth frame rate let alone actually do something new to the game
My friend is a giant Pokemon fan and while he does argue GF does change things up slightly in enough version he is getting tired with how small the changes has gotten.

>Tfw barely any Xenoblade porn
>Tfw barely any Xenoblade art at all
You have 3 areas left.
>>318276638
Melia is awesome. More difficult boss battles I had to swap her out for Sharla's healing though.
>>318276691
Why Friday though? Usually it's on a Tuesday.
>>318276702
I was kinda hoping that Yo-kai Watch would force them to change but I doubt that will happen at this point.

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.
Think we'll see peeps rocking the same builds as everyone else like in Dark Souls and shit?
>>318276959
Huh, guess I never noticed that
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.
Either way it's gonna be a great weekend.
>>318277010
I don't think so
There is no PvP so no real drive to break the meta
>>318275752
LOL what game was he talking about?
Without deleting Fatal Frame off my console, there's no way in hell I can fit the preload stuff onto my Wii U.
Do external drives really help out with the Wii U? I can't imagine them improving load times if I installed the preload stuff onto the external.
>>318277010
>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.
what does this mean
>>318277010
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.
>>318277271
Of course data installed on a hard drive, even if external, will load faster than from a disc drive.
>>318271861
Wait, whatever happened to /v/ boycotting the game because it was censored?
Is the original Xenoblade gonna go on sale?
>>318276767
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.
>my face when playing as Melia with two tanks
>>318277115
when I lived in bumfuck nowhere the place I ordered games from used to send things out super early to me, same as you. Now I moved to a big city (maybe 5km from the big amazon distribution center even) and I get everything a day late.
>>318275687
indeed
>>318277357
Care to recommend some external drive? I don't need it to be huge since it's for the Wii U, so easily 100gig is more than enough.
>>318276638
Thanks for reminding me that Teriyaki exists.
>>318277115
>>318277471
Just checked the website, they already have it in stock and albeit the order status page is confusing it seems like it's already sent
>>318277487
>Having to tell you the age rating 3 times
I guess it's nice that the game title is positioned in the right spot. Guess publishers did that on propose but still why?
>>318277278
You and your party members can do arts that give extra bonuses.
Ex.
>Elma will call for covering fire
>You use a ranged art
>you both get a free buff
You can't choose to initiate an event, but you can choose the callouts your character will make

Who /br/ and getting the game at least 1 week later here?
Fuck digital games I'd rather wait for my cute physical copy.
>>318277057
I remember clearly playing smash on the 29th in europe last year which was a friday because I took the day off
I heard you can spec in RAYGUNS in this game?
>>318277791
I've been NOT paying too much attention to have as much as possible be a surprise. But the way he worded that sentence about selecting a voice soul made me worried it was something in the character creation crucial to the gameplay.
>>318277487

The game is trending on Twitter by the way
>>318277487
What's the age rating of this game?
>>318278006
I might. I'm not sure though, since Elma is FMJ as well and I don't want to basically have the same set of skills in my party twice.
i will get japanese copy not that censored piece of shit
>>318278309
As long as you support the game.

Picture ratings are always great. Actually I forgot what a Canadian box looks like. I would think they use it's own rating system and not our ESRB.

>>318278465
I've been reading that since the Wii U is limited to USB 2.0, a normal flash drive would do just as good as an external HDD or SDD. I can see the logic, but I'm skeptical and cannot find a comparison video. What you think?
>>318278567
I'd blame the HDD.
>>318278572
People make metas for smash games some will try for Xenoblade.

>>318278594
You'll have to do both, regardless.
>>318278505

it'd be a long while though

I heard the story is complete dogshit and that you should only get it if you like singleplayer MMO-like gameplay.
>>318278657
Flash storage is fastest, but I think video games are too much of a strain on it.
>>318278309
Have fun with yourregion locked console.Or have we found a way to disable that now? I was going to import as well but I'm not ordering a Jap Wii U for one game, especially since Wii U's are really expensive for some reason.
>>318278771
THE FEEEEEAR
>>318278690
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.
>>318278309
Haha enjoy having to pay for the dlc dipshit.
>>318278572
but there are leader boards for completing squad missions or some shit. We'll see how popular that is.
other than that a meta could form around what arts, soul voices, and gear are best for the 32 man missions
Any reviews yet?
>>318278838
Well that first part is wrong and the second one is right if you can't tolerate it.

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.

Going with...a lot of 7s and 8s
Why is the music so mediocre compared to the first Xenoblade?
>>318278654
Well I guess you guys are lucky. Nice little letter and a wording on the back.
>>318278771
I kind of knew what it meant just was joking. Why can't they just wrote what it is. And why the fuck is "fear" a rating? How do you rate fear?
Look this is ours on the back cover while the front just has the letter.
>>318279073
You can disable those floating numbers, right?
>>318278881
>Or have we found a way to disable that now?
Wii U softmodding is possible now but you need an older version. I haven't tried it yet but I'm assuming the modding community found a way to remove the region locking.
>>318279227
I know I just wanted to point out the absurdity of it. When I was little I had no idea what those symbols were for (couldn't read English either)
>>318279263
Uh, no, you need them to know how much damage you're dealing.
>>318279213
Because the second one is much more Japanese.
Which is why it took a long time for NoA to americanize it and why it led to such controversy.
>>318279227
>légère violence animée
>>318279358
That's gay. They look jarring here and I can expect it to be even worse if you are running with a team of other NPCs. Also, I don't see how you actually need it. There's a HP bar for a reason.
>>318279367
>Because the second one is much more Japanese.
What does that have to do with what I said? The music doesn't even sound japanese, it sounds very amateur and generic. The songs with vocals are the worst.

>>318279213
It's a big issue considering the normal battle song, which is the song you'll hear the most, is horrendous.
>>318279616
That'd be fantastic. The game world and monsters look great so I want to soak all that in and enjoy the game world. I don't want to get bombarded by a long list of idiotic japanese RPG number bloat.
>>318279652
It's when there's obvious racism.
>>318279213
It isn't, its better than the original.
>>318279927
Even without the damage numbers there's still the overcrowded hud that's typical of MMOs.

Guess I'll get it next year. You guys have fun without me.
>>318279940
Does X have it because in >>318277791 that monk guy is clearly racist to that alien.
Why is it called Xenoblade Chronicles X? I mean, does the Monado exist within the game or is the title just for the sake of consistency?
>>318280029
You can turn all that shit off, nigga. Do you even do any kind of research?

>>318280115
Where does it say you can remove damage numbers?
>>318280096
I assume it's marketing purposes. Shuk and thus the name of Xenoblade got popular by the time of Smash, so Takahashi got smart and put the Xenoblade name on the game to boost sales
>>318280220
I don't? I was just saying what that guy said and it was pretty stupid logic, I already have it pre-ordered.

>>318279217
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.

>Not preordering the superior RPG from the superior RPG series

>>318280209
How can you tell me those godawful vocals are good? Let alone better than anything in the original Xenoblade?
I went through the whole XCX soundtrack and not one song did I save, which is weird since I've saved Sawano songs before. Dumb japs thinking their shitty engrish sounds good.

>>318280135
>that dislike bar
>>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.
>>318280534
Good one cause most of the soundtrack don't have vocals.
I remember when I first saw the trailer, I was wet in my pants and I didn't even have a vagina.

The music sounds very japanese, which is why you don't like it.

Yes, otherwise I would have saved at least one of em (or the whole soundtrack like I did with Xenoblade). Actually I did like one song (Yakou Mori) but not enough to save it.

It's going to be an intense week. Gonna consume copious amounts of alcohol to get through it.

That depends on what RPGs you play anon. The ones I play are highly tactical because they are closer to their wargame roots, although it's not like I'm expecting that out of a jRPG. jRPGs are just casual fun.

Nothing wrong with that, but you don't need to see those numbers at all times. You don't have to crunch numbers constantly, you should be able to disable the intrusive numbers once you've done the spreadsheet theory stuff and are ready to just go.
Or they could've just done the number float differently, because now it really is very intrusive.

Okay.
How is that a yearly series?
There are tons of games where spinoffs happened right after main series games. Kiwami is still technically a spinoff. It's not like they're creating a whole new game. They're taking the assets from 0 and the story from 1.
Hell, 0 is technically a spin-off.

I've played Xenogears a little and thought it was pretty boring, and I never played Xenoblade Chronicles, but the more I read about how huge this game's world is and how the developers are very happy for it and its high Famitsu scores, the more I want it.

Because i'm not a kid who whines about MUH BOOBS and wants to play the game for, yknow, the GAME.
Fuck off with your censorship bullshit. Game got censored. big fucking whoop. Doesnt effect the gameplay, doesn't effect the fun. All it does is deter waifu roleplaying faggots like your pic related. and that's A-Okay by me.

>>318281589

I doubt the game is so challenging that you actually need to crunch numbers to such a degree. There's literally no reason why you shouldn't be able to remove the number float, it's just an extra layer of customization. I have the HP bar anyway, I can figure out which attack does a decent amount of damage based on how big a chunk the enemy loses when I hit them.

Just start at the reboot honestly.
If you read it all the way through and want more, go back to 160 and read from there.
That's probably the best way to go about it. It used to be just start at 160 and Flynn would clear away or fix any dumb characters within the first 20 or so issues. But the reboot has enough lore now that it's worth starting there.

You don't do the number crunching because it's essential, you do it because it's fun.
But that's not how you play a JRPG, feedback is essential. If you don't want feedback you should go for a more realist or immersive game. The Witcher 3 is decent with mods.
>>318282707

>>318282627
The mainline series is just Sonic and Sonic Universe. Sonic Boom is a comedy spin off series.
The Megaman comics had some sonic related stuff due to worlds collide and worlds unite. Avoid Worlds unite, but Worlds collides is great.
Megaman is "indefinitely delayed", not canceled like Boom is. It's mostly because Archie is in financial shit right now because they invested based on the outcome of a kickstarter that failed.

I did remember /v/ once did a whole thing where it posted every Sonic comic in order once. Sadly that was at a time I was away from 4chan.
I managed to finish Xenoblade a few hours ago.
It was pretty nice, although after a certain point all of the uniqueness of the plot and setting kind of vanishes in favor of your standard JRPG plot. Also I got cockblocked right at the second form of the final boss, when I thought that it was about to end, so I had to go back and grind a couple of levels.

>>318282580
I do, nearly my entire playlist are japanese songs. The few that have engrish don't sound nearly as awful as the singers Sawano picked.
Hell, even the shitty german of the singer in another Sawano song, Blumenkranz, sounds way better.

>>318282751
Are you rusing me? Witcher 3 is awful. They managed to make a whole trilogy of games that revolve around what is probably the 2nd worst action based gameplay in an RPG that I've ever seen, TES being the first.
Number crunching exists everywhere, but it's not something you actively do at all times. PnP games are far deeper than any of these games ever will with high levels of crunching going on depending on the rule system, but it doesn't mean that it's an activity you seek to do all the time. You crunch when you build your character, but during gameplay it's go time. That's when you see your crunching come into fruition.
>>318282894

Yes it does, it's actual content that you paid for turned free, that's way better than something as petty as a bust slider. Like who gives a fuck? How does that affect the game other than people arguing semantics about (the TRUE experience)? It doesn't. Meanwhile the dlc does affect the game.
>>318283371

When you go on holiday, you easily spend $1k a day.
Playing this game is an experience that I expect to take more than 10 days.
Sounds like a pretty good deal to me if that experience can be made fantastic instead of mediocre because of the Treehouse amateur voice acting.
>>318283554
Who the fuck cares about you? Also it's not about being poor, you could be rich but still find it offensive to pay extra when the paid dlc was announced before the game was even out and came out right afterwards (which is the case for XCX in Japan).
>>318283747
>I DO give a shit about cut content
Then you should give a shit about the DLC since it was cut from the japanese version and sold right after release.
Not to mention it's content that actually matters and not something as petty as a bust slider.

>>318283853
>When you go on holiday, you easily spend $1k a day.
Well first of all where the fuck are you going that you spend so much? Second, too bad this game isn't a holiday trip and thus it's expected to pay the standard retail price that a home console game costs.
You're insane for wanting to pay more than 100 times the cost of the game for something so petty.
Why are all the MC voices so fucking awful
>LETS MURDERATE EM

You fail at reading comprehension.
My point is that the music you listen to, despite being japanese, is not mainstream japanese music that actual normal japanese people listen to.
>people actually thought they would censor the Wels logo
You guys got meme'd on way too hard. Shitposters won.
>>318283878
>Who the fuck cares about you?
I'll ask you the same thing, poorfag.
There's also some "cute" chibi posters
>>318284203
Its just that Demitri at GameXplain didn't show us the posters so people got nervous.
>>318284210
Cute!
>>318271861
just popped in to say I haven't looked at anything related to the game, nor have I played any of the sequels after xenogears.
The hype is real.
>>318284165
Okay my bad but I still listen to mainstream shit everytime I play osu because 90% of the songs are mainstream japanese songs, not ONE of them is in full engrish. The most popular singers like AKB48 don't sing in full engrish.
>>318284147
Well not all of us can afford to be NEET leeches.
>>318283616
The difference is that game designers ensure that the content is fair given any skill set you might have picked.
With PnP, you can have 90% of the stats useless, because the GM chose not to use them in his campaign.
>>318284210
Post one more boner inducing. Something that makes me go BOYOYOYOYONG.
>>318284147
I've already done the whole sitting on my ass doing fuck all thing, it gets boring after a while.
>>318284085
I can't
>>318283931
There are a few posters of Lin, did they get censored or changed?
Will a USB drive be good enough for the data packs?
>>318284375
The only thing left to do now is die.
>>318284209
Except I'm not talking about myself but the general interest of not having to pay anything extra for content that should be in the game.
Japs got fucked over more than you because the paid dlc came out right after the game.
>>318284116
Its sad that there's less voices, and its really fucking lazy that they actually reused Elmas voice as one of the MC ones. Like, did they really think people would want two characters with the same voice?? How fucking lazy. No excuse for that.
>>318283757
The characters are lifeless because the voice acting is lifeless.
The original voice acting has a lot of flavour and emotion to it.
>>318284454
But I haven't played XCX yet Anon.Or Zelda U since I'm actually looking forward to that
>>318283931
Is the game as complex as everyone make it out to be? Or is it just a lot of stuff at once and once you start to understand things everything makes sense?
>>318271861

>>318284518
Ah, who voiced Elma in the English dub?
>>318284514
I approve to this.
>>318284414
Aside from the Welcome to BLADE one, there's no posters of Lin
I hope the voice actors are british again. The Japanese voice acting in the original Xenoblade was awful.
Is there a way to download to the system when you have an external plugged in?
Because I've tried three times to download all those loading packs and they all error out at around 70%. And on top of that I have shitty internet so it takes 18 hours just to get to that point. I think the problem is with the external, but everything downloads to it by default.

Elma's VA isn't one of the MC voices.

so they still fucked up the text, that's a pretty bad edit
>>318284582
>Or is it just a lot of stuff at once and once you start to understand things everything makes sense?
Yes, but the game is still complex.

Huh, I could have sworn there was one of her in that black suit that had the slit from the neck to the waist. (How did they censor that outfit on her? Does she have any outfits that show cleavage?)
>>318284345
What. The reality is the exact opposite. There's always a ton of shit skills and classes in RPGs, especially adaptations of PnP systems, and it's not even rare to have skills that never get checked a single time, whereas in PnP sessions the GM can just conjure up situations on the fly where a given stat check can be used.
In either case that's a failure of the GM or the designer. A good designer or GM (basically the same thing really) will have good representation for all choices. They don't have to be equal, as in 5 ways to get the same good result, but still be represented.
>>318284210
>"bienvenue au bled"
amusing
>>318284653
They aren't British, its a bunch of no talent Americans, most of them literally who's. The VA work is pretty awful in this game, go listen to gamexplain videos to see.
>>318284801
>Does she have any outfits that show cleavage?
Yep, we saw a few, like the outfit Hope wears, the black suit, etc.
>>318284756

>>318284984
Is the ocean accessible?
>>318284736
Does the game do a good job at explaining it's systems? Anything you wished it explained better? What are some of your dislikes about the game? I'm planning on getting it anyways but I would like to know others people's impression about the gameplay just in case.
>>318284984
Did you beat the game? How many hours did it take? Are you close to 100%?
>>318284094
>Well first of all where the fuck are you going that you spend so much?
A good hotel is $300 per night, add food on top of that (a good $100), plus the costs for whatever you're doing (another $100), that's $500.
Add to that the cost of the plane divided by the time you're staying; easily goes up to $5k if like me you travel in business class.
If you travel with your missus, multiply by 2 (except for the room).
>>318285089

Not the bug armor, stuff like the cat armor, though I'm not sure if that one got edited.

Yes ! the endgame feels like a MMO endgame

>>318285325
>dubfag calling someone insecure
>no dual audio
why
>>318284804
Adaptations of PnP systems as video games have not been a thing for 10 years.
All computer/console RPGs release nowadays make sure that all skills are useful and balanced (even the indie stuff).
>>318284514
Can't believe this didn't get censored
>>318285272
>apparently they weren't interestingHis quest line is one of the best I've heard
>>318285412
Its a create a character and not Lyn, that's probably why.
>>318285325
Hit a nerve?
>>318285358
When I got the game I'm finally free from this shitpost hell so I don't mind.
>>318285038
Announcing your own false flags already, that's beyond sad.
>>318284582
It's complex by modern mainstream RPG standards.
Pretty typical when compared to games made before gaming became casual in the late 2000s.
>>318285272
>weren't interesting
Sorry to say this, but that questline was basically your only way to see from that character's point of view on why the character did what the character did and its sad as fuck. You missed out anon.
>>318285105
Yes, important parts of the game take place in the ocean.
>>318285130
Yes, but the UI and menus are complex at first. I wish they'd indicate gathering quests better. Dislikes : Complex UI, horrible gathering quests.
>>318285183
I beat the main story (70h), and I don't feel like i'm close to 100% there's probably 100h left for me to play
>>318285283
I have the EU one, sorry. :/
>>318285323
Haven't seen this one, and I'm lvl BLADE 10. It could be a future unlock ? I don't know.
>>318285401
Any criticism of the dub in this game in this game is met with cries of
>WAAAAAHH STOP SHITPOSTING
Even the legit criticisms. Its fucking sad. I've never seen anyone more insecure over criticism than in these threads. I'm not even criticizing the game, just the shoddy localization work.
I will admit there are some good voices like Nagi and HB but the majority of VAs in this game just sound bland and lifeless.
>>318285187
>A good hotel is $300 per night, add food on top of that (a good $100
you sound like a teenager who never really got money in its hands.
>>318285574
I'll probably watch my brother do the quests when he'll play the game then, but it's not like i'm totally unaware of what happened
>>318282028
Those will work. You can just use the gamepad though.
>>318284673
I don't understand what your problem is. Grinding made you able to kill level 3 monsters easily?
>>318285038
Buyer's remorse for a $60 game? Talk about your poors.
>>318285682
I know, but the questline really puts into perspective and makes you sympathize with the character more, or at least I did, and it made the ending come full circle.

>>318285808
How is having every overused dub VA a good thing? Just needs Johnny Yong Bosch and Yuri Lowenthal and it'll be complete.
with no tit size slider, is it better to play as a girl or guy in this?
>>318285789
Buyer's remorse for the game + Wii U.
>>318283931
We did it boys, Wels-chan lives
>>318285569
I get that. Takahashi was making games when complexity was considered a badge of honor than something you should turn away from.
>>318285576
>Dislikes : Complex UI, horrible gathering quests
I can see that. I'm guessing once you get use to it the UI is just like white noise. And no one liked the gathering missions in XC and seem Takahashi hasn't found a way to make it better.
>>318285969
Some $250 still isn't enough for buyer's remorse anon.
>>318285865
Ah, yeah maybe, but they're hard to craft.like where am I suppose to get Telethia Emeralds ?

My advice? Don't take ANY gathering quest and just hand in the items when you have enough in your inventory.
Working Wii U emulator when? This game looks d a n k.

I'm a different guy you retard.
>>318276638
>Egil
Wonder if there's a gigantic crybaby faggot like him in XCX.
I feel like this game will feel like a disappointing grind after 6 hours in and we all will begin to hate the repetitive content and lack of classes.
Remember that in Xenoblade Original you could change the AI of your allies and even control them at any point in the game.
In Xenoblade X it seems like all you can change is the "shouts" of the allies and their gear, meaning the X-timing is all you can change.
So ultimately the combat is shallow "spam abilities when they are off cooldown or on two-cooldown" and wait for X prompts......
>>318286195
Didn't the Japanese release have a cast of respected seiyuus?
>>318286351
>hurr they're not overused, they're respected
Anybody have some good gifs/webms showing off the game?
>>318286312
>and even control them at any point in the game.
Yeah that was fun, disappointing that you can only use your MC in this one. Really weird that they changed that.

>>318286439
Are you retarded? You can control the other characters, you just can't remove the MC from the party.
>>318286439
Yeah, that's extremely weird. I wonder why they gave reviewers hacked copies.
>>318286439
You still can the MC always stays in your party though.
>>318286395
Probably because they actually have talent.
>>318286453
His very existence is wrong.
>>318285704
The problem's the long-ass unsheathing/sheathing animations Seven has.

>>318285980
I still can't believe they changed Wels to Verus. This is ridiculous.
>>318286660
Silent protagonist was a mistake. Takahashi needs to go back to set protag for the next game. MAYBE customization but preferably none. Character creator was shit in this game anyways.
>>318287265
Pretty sure you'll find people on tumblr who like any game you also like.
>>318287381
Yes, how weird of them to change the English version of a word that is also pronounced differently in Japanese.
>>318287527
Treehouse shill.
>>318287603
Take it up with Takahashi if you're so mad at him changing the names.
>>318287265
but why anon?
you could just choose to ignore them and not give a fuck and it wouldn't effect you in the slightest.
Yet you instead deliberately choose to be angry at people liking the same things you do, for different reasons.
anyone else order SE from amazon? Mine says it won't get here until the 8th. What the fuck? 4 days late?
Should I just order the regular edition?
>>318287219
You should have done the affinity missions of all characters before progressing with the main story.
Missing missable content is a testament to you being a casual.
