New thread folks. Rev up them potatoes
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?
>>318290105
This is a potato I can get into.
brown booty
>>318290190
Same for me. I'll see if i can get it early on prime now. If not im going to go to gamestop as soon as they open to buy it.
This is going to be goty times 10.
I'm looking forward to hunting with you guys
HELLO?
>>318290439
>Name is Jonathan
>Important character is name Jonathan
Hate when games does that.
Is there a /v/ squad?
>>318290190
Just checked my order and it says the 8th too. I really don't want to wait another weekend to play the game, especially when most of the time I can play it would be my off days.
Might just drop the SE altogether. Fuck NoA for being stupid as fuck with these things and limiting them to total 1000 or whatever bullshit number they come up with.
>>318290469IS THIS THING ON?

>>318291091
I'd just get the digital version if there's no guarantee of delivery on the 4th.
>>318290105
Can you emulate a WiiU already?
>>318291426
why do you keep posting this shit here?
>>318290629
Should've thought about that before picking a biblical name
>>318291705
Yes, have fun
>>318291705
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0sgYdqNeJU
Sort of.
>>318291705
Yeah, at 1fps with Mario kart 8, have fun!
Anybody else find Irina Guin & Doug's designs a bit... Boring? I don't find those characters very interesting,imo.
>>318292036
At least they kept the Wels-tan poster, but why change it to Verus?
>>318292120
Maybe because people would call them "Uels" otherwise
>>318290105
I want this version only for that God damn Custom USB.
I don't give a fuck abou the art book nor the Card.
I want the USB with the soundtrack.
>>318292120
Its actually a pretty accurate translation. That's more or less how it was pronounced because its based off of German, and they have a weird hard W sound that is a lot like the English V. The L and R switch up is because Japs.
>>318292120
Because in Xenogears it had a 'we' and in blade it has a 've' in Japanese. Japanese romanization choices have never been considered ironclad.
a cat is fine too
>>318292036
Holy fuck this is such bad editing
>>318292120
I don't get it. They changed it to Verus in the EU/NA ver. because that's how the Japanese pronounce Wels? The thing is that we pronounce Wels exactly how it is, so then why does it need to be changed? I'm not moaning muh censorship, I'm cool with the name Verus, I'm just confused as to why it was changed.
>>318292391
>The thing is that we pronounce Wels exactly how it is
No you don't
>>318292391
It's a biblical reference or something like that
>>318292391
Because Monolith changed the pronunciation. It's no longer like in pic related.

>>318292364
She better be playable in the sequel, one of my only gripes in this game.
someone explain probes i dont get it
what are the best?
>>318292813
Anal
>>318292391
I'm glad they changed it, because it literally means catfish in german and that was irritating as fuck
>>318292391
If you're pronouncing it "wells" then you're saying it wrong.
>>318292941But I like Welse...
>>318293021
So its pronounced Verus?
>>318292036
can you show the original for comparison?
>>318293090
It is now. The old way was literally 'werusu', which is still wrong if they wanted it to sound German.
>>318292391
>The thing is that we pronounce Wels exactly how it is
Do you anons speak your mind without knowing shit?
>>318292328
>changing a German name to American phonetics is translation
>>318290190
you can get the SE from gamestop and pick it up at the store on the 4th
probably sold out by now though
>>318293198
>the U covers more leg than the L
CENSORED!
>>318292364
Right species, wrong gender.
>>318293198
This doesn't have the holes in E and L.
So it's really just bad editing.
>Told by a friend to listen to the part in the 8-4 recent podcast about X
>They actually got the guy who translated Xenogears and Xenosaga on board to help
>>318293405
Do we know if it's taken from the same spot on the wall?
>>318292036
The black line running through the 'E' in Verus is obviously them beginning to censor it up. Fortunately, they must have gotten distracted by something & then forgor about it.
>>318293240
Eh, I couldn't think of the right word to use. Its based on the questionable romanization used in the Japanese anyways. Its a clusterfuck. They're just making it so English people actually know how to say it right.
>>318293532
Or you know, its just a bad edit.
>>318292310
Chop up the black plastic feet of a drying rack and super glue them to a usb stick of your choice. Congrats you've now got a Zohar stick that can also store more than 160mb or whatever pathetic amount the SE version has.
>>318293607
I was joking.
>>318293696
Oh, my mistake.
>>318293530
The wall details don't add up, so no.
Thinking about ordering the Xenoblade X Collectors Edition Hardcover guide book off of Amazon

whatever i'm just calling it whatever the voice actors call it
>>318293758
infos wise, internet is a better source
i ordered mine for collection, love these kinda guides
>>318293758
Probably. Also wasn't there some discount code you could use?
>>318293758
>Is this going to be necessary?
In the age of the Internet, not really. I mean, it's more practical to have the book next to you while playing than having to go on your computer when you don't know where X item is or whatver, but I wouldn't call it necessary.
>>318293758
Not really, only one thing is missable and its Lao's affinity quest, so just do them before he becomes unplayable.
>>318293746
It might be more useful to see if the decal still has those issues at the same spot on the wall then.
>>318293789
That just says it's light type.
>>318293597
Please, say Americans, not English speaking people.
You'd have to be a retard or American to require a name like Guin to be localized as Gwin so Americans can understand how to pronounce it disregarding the fact that this game is voiced.
>>318293597
The name is in romanji in the japanese version.
>>318293501
You mean the guy that already complained at the time that the game had too many religious undertones and that he wasn't comfortable translating it because he feared christians would put his life in danger?
>>318293758
Depends. If you want all your information asap it could be a good idea depending on the quality. Try looking for the discount code in the old thread though to save some money.
>>318293789
That says "light type". I don't know how you got the reading you did out of that.
>>318293904
Yeah the discount code is HOLIDAY30
I also have Prime shipping so it brings down the price of the book to $17 for me. I figured that would be a pretty good deal considering that its a limited edition hardcover with 514 pages
Can you choose what 32 person squad to join for online aspects, or are you thrown into a random one each time you boot up the game?
>>318294194
Because you can't read katakana.
>>318293758
could be useful for the lols, is probably full of bad information and advice
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU7OXv9Q2kU
Will this is interesting
>>318294169
Sort of, but he then realized it was more important that he kept everything in tact which he did for both games.
>>318293501
>>They actually got the guy who translated Xenogears and Xenosaga on board to help
Those games had horrible translations though
>>318294224
Plus it comes with a code for a free copy of the digital guide.
>>318294194
he said what it means when it read most of the characters as katakana
>>318294035
There's probably a formal source somewhere, but if you look for Japanese writing about the game, you can find how they're pronouncing it. They use a ヴェ instead of a ウェ now.
>>318294258
you can form squads based on NNIDs, so you better be ready for that /v/ sqaud
>>318293758
Does anyone know if the guide is going to be the same as the Japanese version of the guide?
>>318294385
I just hope some kind soul shares the most important infos as soon as possible.
>>318294426
You can't read katakana either
>>318294490
Once I get my digital copy I'll upload it here
>>318293405
They basically took the Wels-tan poster, removed the WELS and changed it to a VERUS without altering the alpha levels which is what those holes are.
>>318294318
While watching this video, I wondered why Americans can't even say Japanese names properly. Can they really not pronounce anything besides English?
>>318293930
you can access the internet over your smartphone, laptop and the wii u itself
you don't need to run to your pc for that
>>318294615
Thanks, I'll look out for it then.
>>318294718
It also looks like they fucked up the entire wall. I'm not sure if the top is supposed to look like this.
>>318294828
Well its always nice to have a physical reference to quickly look at while playing the game.
Kind of wished I had a book for Xenoblade Chronicles
>>318294804
Americans can't even pronounce English words properly. They speak American, not English.
>>318295052
physical will always be better, I agree on that
Which squad are you joining?
http://www.strawpoll.me/6135249
>>318294804
B-but it's fun to make fun of japs saying english words!
>>318295195
how do I join either of these?
>>318292036
Sucks about the text looking like that, but at least image is unchanged which is what is more important.
>>318295380
Japs saying english words is the best thing in the universe
I wouldn't enjoyjojohalf as much without all the crazy engrish
>>318295195

I'm sort of new to mecha; as I've only really watched Gurren Lagann and a couple of other series. However, I'd like to hang around with some chill people so it will likely be a toss-up.
I'm also getting this as a gift, so I hope people will still be playing around the holidays.
>>318296076

Nearing the end of XC in preparation for XCX. I just got to the Bionis Interior again, and my party is level 68-69 and the enemies are like 72-73. Should I grind a bit? As I got closer to the end,. I started doing less and less side quests to try and get finished a bit faster

Mine is still saying December 7th, but the green bar looks like it only needs 10% - 5% left to fill up for shipping so I might get it day one or so. You have my condolences.
>>318297597
Well that kinda happens when the data packs are released when the game is fully released, so you have no room to complain.
>>318297161
Yeah, go do a bit of sidequesting until you're at least up to the monster's level.
>>318297161YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR INSOLENCE

>tfw canadian and bought digital

>>318292391
Wels in the English version of Xenogears was a mistranslation (despite mostly everything else being spot-on, but can't blame a guy for trying to translate something like a xeno game without at least several religious texts to spell-check for him) it's pronounced Verus due to it being German plus Engrish to English confusion.
Why does Lin Lee's voice make me hard?
>>318297928
>preordering something months before release
>still have to wait a week for shipping

no fuck you they should ship it out 2 or 3 days before release so I get it on time

That's just how amazon works. I preordered devil survivor 2 almost a year before it came out in america and they got it to me nearly two weeks after release.

>>318298558
It's been circulating for a few days.
I don't think we actually know.

Should I just download the basic data pack or just go with out any?
>>318298513
fuck amazon
most places offer free day 1 shipping when preordering but not them
>>318297973

>>318298826
She'll be your friend, anon
>>318298826
Yes, the game is more focused on the single player than the online anyway.
>>318298330
It is.
Data packs do not contain any new stuff.
Data packs are just cached files in the faster internal memory
On PS3/PS4 (and xbox ?), you can juste choose to install data from disc.
But on wiiu, you have to redownload stuff from the shop, wtf

Well then that is pretty retarded, but its no surprise. Nintendo is easily the worst out of the big 3 gaming companies.
Its a shame they have such good game designers working for them

well I'm keeping my preorder anyways because of whatever price error caused this.
amazon always gives ridiculous delivery estimates though. I'm like 5km from their mississauga distribution centre so I dunno if it's even worth bumping it up to 1 day shipping.
I also still have my old $40 future shop E3 preorder from 2013 that I'm keeping as backup.
The Xenoblade Special Edition is 95$ in Mexico
Should i?

>History seemed set to repeat with the Nintendo Wii's Xenoblade Chronicles. Midway through the project the team encountered a raft of difficulties and, realising they would miss the launch deadline, a deflated Takahashi met with Hitoshi Yamagami, the Nintendo producer who oversees RPG development, to suggest a list of deadline-aiding compromises. Yamagami rejected the plan and told the designer: "You've come this far. You should see it through to the end. I'll convince the others at the company."

I can't believe I missed that.
>>318299385
>gameplanet
So what if they put up a free download at launch that puts everything that was censored back in? just give the download an ESRB of Mature and that would work, right?
>>318301023
The censored stuff still wouldn't put it past T
trying to avoid spoilers, but does anyone who's finished the game know if our protagonist would carry onto a sequel?
>>318299903
>Takahashi turned 50 earlier this month. It's a milestone that appears not to have dulled his irrepressible ambition. "My goals still lie ahead of me," he says, defiantly. "I feel like now that Xenoblade Chronicles X is done I'm finally standing on the start line." He has no plans to retire or even, as he put it to Iwata last year, to move away from the practicalities of game design. "Something I've felt recently is that a lot of people of our generation have taken on roles as producers, and that they've actually been too hasty to distance themselves from the actual game development process," he said at the time. "If you look at films or animation, people in their fifties or sixties remain very active. If we retire from actually making games, that spirit of craftsmanship won't be handed down to the next generation. That's why I think it's better that we maintain a hands-on role in the game development process."

Dude, if his wife is stable lets not do anything large that could change that and fuck up the development of the sequel. We don't need another Xenosaga Episode 2.
A jeans butt is fine too.

>>318301616

>>318301412
The protagonist survives, but no one knows when or where the sequel will take place. For all we know it'll take place three thousand years later or on aWHOLE DIFFERENT PLANETin Neo Hong Kong or whatever.

>>318301846
Don't ask just do it
>>318301532
more like dickson's
>>318301412
Doubt it. Lao would make more sense considering the ending, and I think Takahashi knows that a CC was a mistake for a game like this.

>>318302025
>they built the entire class system for a single character
I appreciate that they put a lot of effort into the protagonist, but an actual character would be better, yes. Maybe they could reuse some of their fancy system by giving all characters limited customization in the sequel.
>>318302235Being an antagonist doesn't keep you from being a protagonist in Xeno games.

>>318301516
>>318301616
Takahashi and Saga having two kids (don't know how old they are) might also be a reason why Saga only does freelance work these days.
How much costumization do we have over our character after we get into the game? Can i switch heights and gender freely?
>>318302619After you finish the story
>>318301606
oh lord
>>318302619
Everything except name can be changed.
Anyone know if Skells level up independently, or if they need to be upgraded to the level 50 versions?
The level 30 Lailah looks way better than the level 50 one, I'd prefer not to switch if possible.
>>318302619
Yes, you can unlock the option to change your own character later in the game.
>union bonus don't actually apply to you only people who interact with your character in multiplayer
why does nintendo spread misinformation saying that we get the bonus too?
These threads are making me so hype. This game is gonna be the best reward for finishing my exams
>>318301516
The most based japanese developer. I always wondered why people like Iwata or Shigeru took the route that they did.
>>318297638
god why does this look so awful
>>318302817
You buy the two frames separately.
You can only buy the more powerful version after you clear the main storyline.
Regardless of your frame you're using, you can completely change its equipment (except for Ares), including its armor.
>>318299806
Hold up, the brown girl is voiced by Ikumi Nakagami?! god fucking damnit, I was almost okay with no dual audio and now I find this out.
Literally fuck NoA.
>>318303303
>including its armor
does that change the appearance?
>>318301516
Holy shit, that's a straight up call out to Miyamoto isn't it?
>>318302926
Because you do?
so if im controlling a doll and it gets destroyed i can do the qte thing but what if a party members doll is destroyed what happens?
>>318303521
And Iwata since he was still around then, dude. It almost sounds like he was begging them to come back to actual development and teaching people how to do this shit well.
Two questions:
What does the Virus debuff (from Pathogen Blast/that one Affinity Quest photon saber art) do?
When an art has the effect "boost damage in melee/ranged combos", does that mean bonus damage from melee/ranged autoattack, soul voice, or just give a flat boost to all melee/ranged damage in general?
>>318303414
no.
>>318299385
Si, Juan-Martinez! Si!
>>318304032
Virus disables enemy ranged attacks from being used.
Is 14 GB enough space to install the data (keep in mind I had 22 GB of space left then deleted a lot of shit and this is after I fully downloaded all the data packs)?
>tfw I have to wait until Friday to find out if my WiiU is gonna break after installation
>>318304032
Pretty sure "combo" means whatever art you cast right after that one. So "boosts damage in melee combo" would boost damage if you used a melee art after it.
I wish we could get just the character creator beforehand so I can put hours into that instead of waiting for the game so I can put hours into that
>>318305602
You need 10.5GB for the data packs.
>>318305809
>still havent decided on a name
>>318305602
I downloaded all the packs and it took up 10 GB so you should be fine.
>>318305985
>tfw naming my character after an anime but haven't decided which anime yet
what if i join a mp focused squad while just doing solo stuff to leech?
how is it a disadvantage compared to solo squad?
>>318306161
Solo squads are probably more likely to scout you and give you bonus XP, as well as maybe giving away unneeded drops
>>318305985
Gonna have to think of a unisex name.
>>318290105
So what guarantees that this game won't go multiplat in a year? What are my chances of playing this on my PS4?
>>318306318>implying i would ever not play a grill
>>318305985
I can't make names either, I just use the default one provided.
In this case, Cross.
>>318306340
The fact that it's a game developed by Nintendo.
>>318306340
it's a Nintendo game, so probably never
How lewd will this be?
I'm a bit hesitant about playing it in front of the Mrs due to the loli
>>318306409
I'll make sure to laugh at you when you post pictures of a girly man.
>>318306161
the multiplayer is just like dragon's dogma.
It is solo play with someone's character as a companion. Of course it's a bit of a waste since you don't increase a companion's affinity, but you get a bonus instead.
>>318306552
There's monster hunter style quests too
>>318306416
Well shit, didn't know it was first party. It just looks cool and interesting but no way I'm buying a WiiU for this.
>>318290105
Curious, this thread has been reoccurring and is basically shilling for a game, why is this okay but any other game not?
Or is it just mods clean up Nintendo threads only?
>>318306474
Nintendo heavily censored it, so not very much.
>>318306510
Why would I do that when I could play as a waifu?
>>318306618
Yet it's the one game you buy the Wii U for.
>>318306474
Just Lyn, so your wife will probably see you put outfits on the others.
>>318306414
Gonna use default downs cross too?
>>318306340
It was developed by Monolith Soft and Nintendo SPD (Software Planning & Development) plus it was published by Nintendo.
>>318306618
I guess your best bet is to wait for emulation.
>>318290105
Chances that I can walk into a gamestop on release day and get the collectors edition? I've been on a games media black out for the past couple of weeks and didn't even realize this was coming out.
>>318306781
I never buy consoles just for one game, no matter how good. Especially not a dying one.
>>318306474
It's only as lewd as you make it, it all depends on the costumes or equipment you're using. Most of Lin's lewd costumes were censored anyways.
All this excludes the squid ass though. There will always be squid ass.
>>318306863
He can have fun waiting 30+ years for a stable version while everyone else will be playing Episode 4 and 5 by then.
>just started first game
>fuckingFiora bites it.
AHHHHHH
>>318306067
>It's the current year
>Not naming your hero of justice Masayoshi
>>318307446
The game impressed me a lot with that. Just straight up fucking kills a major character, and Shulk's motivation for his quest is just red-blooded revenge
Too bad the game drops the ball on that later
>>318306836
Yes, there a couple of ready-made faces to choose from.
Thankfully this can be changed at any time, unlike the name, so it doesn't matter much.
>>318307446
>I decided she would be the character I control
And that day I was mad.
>>318307165
enjoy your shitty multiplats that you could just run on your PC then
>>318305916
>>318306032
So when I get the game and install the data packs, it only needs a additional 10 gigs to install the data packs?
>>318306414
I'd do that, but I think there's going to be too many "Cross"s online.
I'll go with a variant of it or something.
... Like Cruz. I dunno.
>>318307574
It wasn't really possible to kill a major character, hence why she came back.
This is my first Xenoblade game. Should I go into this game blind or watch some game tutorials on youtube first?
literally havent stopped thinking about this game for what feels like 6 months now, now it's only days away I'am literally shaking, if my order doesnt get here on the day it's release i'll probably buy one from the shop anyway
>>318307810
You only really need the Basic pack, which is 2GB. But yes, around 10GB for everything.
>>318307810
This is a console, not a PC. You don't need to "install" anything.
>there are people on /v/ right now that own a wii u that wont be getting this game.
>>318307923
The japanese directs explain mechanics so watch those.
>>318307446NOOOOOOOOO!I'LL KILL YOOOUUUU!

>>318307942
I wish games weren't hype, it really changes the way you look at life and makes you feel like a shit until you have it.
>>318307923
Watching some stuff to get familiar with the basic mechanics might be a good idea since the game is really complicated
Then again there's also value in going in blind and just being gloriously overwhelmed by everything
>>318307859
Online it just uses your NNID.
>>318307923
XBX will have a tutorial. but it wouldn't hurt to read up on the combat in Xenoblade Chronicles.
My Wii U just gave me a reminder that that it's going to be released soon. :D
Remember, review embargo is lifted tomorrow
>>318307923
You should watch these to get prepped.

I can't run shit in this and I don't really have the space or the money to have a proper PC. Plus PC is getting shafted with multiplats because they end up being a badly done port. Nah I'll stick with consoles.
>>318307923
Just go in blind desu. If you aren't retarded then it shouldn't be too complicated.I've played xenoblade and no nothing of this game but I think I'll be able to figure it out.
>>318308038

I'm more hyped for this game than I've been for any other game in recent memory aside from MGS5, because this is as close to a sequel to my favorite game everPSOthat I'll probably get.
Are there double sabers in it? Or just normal photon sabers?
>>318308546
Mary or Adam
>>318308354
I'll be playing the fixed version once cfw 5.5 is released.
do you level up your class when controlling a doll?
Guess i should ask here. I haven't played Xenoblade Chronicles, will I be okay just getting this game? I played Xenosaga years ago.
Like how much is it connected or should I play Xenoblade on emulator before friday?
>>318308649
The major sounds too old
Listening to them I actually kind of like Fiora
>>318308640
Nope, sadly dual sword and photon sabers are two different categories of weapons, you can't dual-wield photon sabers.
>>318308726
Official answer:It's not connected to any other Xeno gameSpoiler answer:It's Perfect Works episode 1
>>318308726
Yep, Xenoblade X is a sequel in name and mechanics only, its story is completely unrelated to the first Xenoblade outside of a few Easter eggs and recurring names.
>>318305809
That would beva good idea desu
>>318307446
That's just the beginning of your wild rage. You should probably leave before someone spoils something likeShulk was dead the entire time and he died during the flashback of when he found the Monado. Zanza was living inside of him.
>>318308779
I mean like pic related, but I assume it doesn't, so it wouldn't be that big of a hit. As long as I can get a yellow photon saber to reminisce of my Gladius days.
>>318308813So if XCX is Episode 1, then is there anything in-game about the construction of Deus?
>>318307446
>He's on the dead Fiora path
Reset and try again.
>>318308813
Again?
Wasn't that Xenosaga 1?
>>318309326
Xenosaga was doomed from the get go
>>318309159Not sure about Deus, but the lifeholds are pieces of Kadomony
>>318309043
That's in PS Nova for VIta.
>>318309287
C'mon mang, don't be that guy.
>>318308905
the thing that didnt make sense to me ishow was he still living after? once zanza left, shouldn't he have died?
>>318309043
Holy shit I love PSO.
That weapon right there? The double saber? The weakest one is a 9-star rare as fuck weapon. That entire class of weapons was only unlocked 100 hours into the game, and there are over a dozen now. Nobody does anything like that anymore.
>PSO is one of the best games ever made
>all the talent leaves Sega at the same time
>look up where they are now
>most are making phones games
Nothing makes me sadder
>>318309665He gained a monado and willed himself to live
>>318309729oh I see, must have missed that part. So did fiora also gain a monado, even though everyone said she didnt have one? or was it just the transformation back into a human at the end that let her live?
>>318309497
I have PS Nova. It's ok, but too dialogue heavy compared to the older games. It's basically an offline version of PSO2. Not bad, but not as good as PSO, Ep1&2, or Blue Burst.
>>318309871Fiora was using Meyneth's monado. She turned back into a human by sleeping in a High Entia regeneration pod for 6 months
>>318294224
>HOLIDAY30
shit code still works even with shipping and handling prices you end up saving like 50 cents off the full price of the fuckin book. Hmmm I was thinking of picking it up in store for instant gratification but I doubt target has a 20% off the guide with game purchase deal or anything.
Does XCX have a boss theme or powerful monster theme as good as these two?

Help me out here /v/:
I wanna download the other patches for X and run the game at its best quality when I pop it in, but I got Pikmin 3, Pandora's Tower, and Punch Out just eating up at my system. I would rather not delete these games as I like playing them, but need the patch space. I got a 1TB My Passport Ultra already, but it crashes the system every time I try to format it, so it's pretty much junk.
If I were to buy a cheap 16GB for my Wii U, can I run the Wii games off a flash drive, or should I just play the game with the basic 2GB patch downloaded and none of the other supplements? I think I got room for one supplement patch, which is better; enemies or Dolls?
>>318299385
you are going to put down that stupid art book agter 6 sec, why bother, save up and get some better things

>There is still no Score at Metacritic
Why? I have to decide if i should preorder or not now.
>>318312071
No romance options and you can change your appearance later in the game, including gender.
>>318311535
where is the "none of the above" option?
>>318312127
Reviews drop tomorrow, Nov 30th, at 10 AM EST.I'm reviewing it. Once the embargo lifts I'll make it obvious who I am.

Also, is the game worth it? Yes or no.
>>318312127
>giving a shit about reviews unless you like to bet on scores

What you should actually do is check out the jap videos about the game and form your own opinion.
IF YOU ARE RUSING YOUR RAY
YOU NEED SOME PROTEKSHON
>>318312071
No romance option. After a certain point you unlock the ability to completely redo your character whenever you want (though that don't unlock any NEW customization options), the only thing you can never change is your name. The only other way to further customize your character is through gear. Thankfully the game has a "fashion slot" option in which you can put any kind of gear you want, and your character will look like it's wearing that gear, while gaining the stats of whatever is equipped in his base gear slot.
>>318312223
good to know. i usually have hair style ADD and want to change it often in games. How is implemented in the game? New LA plastic surgeons?

Is this the true GOTY?
>>318313286
Studious is the closest to what I'd want in terms of male voices, but the victory quote just kinda makes him sounds like the "captain of the chess club." What a Melvin. Rebel sounds good, it's just not exactly what I'd want.
I'll probably roll with a female soldier.
>>318313827
Maybe
The dub reminds me of really stilted anime dubs from the 90s, which isn't really a good thing unless you're into that shit.

Suffering. I work right next to the Gamestop I preordered it at, but damn. Ah well, I guess it'll feel even more gratifying when I finally get to start it up.

The custom protag was a mistake. They need to go back to a standard protag for the sequel.

>>318315791
They better send them out on Monday so we can get it on the day or release or a day earlier.
So I've been thinking about getting this because it looks neat. I know they censored some underage girl's outfit and removed the breast slider (why), but have they fucked any key plot elements or anything like that?
I don't mind the aesthetic censorship too much, but if they changed plot element for no good reason, then I'm just not sure.
>>318315427
No japanese audio, changed the names of everything, including badly editing graphical content that referenced the old names.
>>318296713
>that transformation animation
Damn that's good
>>318315868
Ouch, I at least get Saturday off, so I can stay up as retardedly late as I want once I get off to play the game.
>>318315961
They changed subtle references that you wouldn't have understood anyway (they certainly didn't).
>Money taken from bank account
>Still hasn't shipped
>Waiting for my LE to arrive at my doorstep this week
>>318315961
Nah, those are the only two real instances of censorship. The only other stuff is some name changes which I'd be more willing to chalk up to incompetence than anything else
>>318315961

Still want to know if the side quests are just generic, boring "kill X amount of Y" or if they're more like traditional open world RPG side quests with stories and what not.
>>318316408
well i ordered mine on the 24th
i guess they'll ship it so i could get it on release day, if i were in france
extra days are to get to my place i guess
oh well
>>318316523
While you're masturbating to retarded potatoes I'll be fapping to the vastly superior Dolls.
>>318316205
salut :)
>>318316704
>if it has a story it isn't still a kill x talk to y collect z quest
Uh huh.
>>318316704
Depends on the sidequest.
There are a lot of Kill/collect x amount of Y missions, but they're pretty easy to complete and you'll probably finish them just by exploring around and finding things. Some quests are about the characters in your party and revolve around their development. There are also sidequests with personal choice involved that will alter the lives of various npcs, although, that's only as important as you personally make it out to be.
There seems like some decent variety from what I've seen.
I'm really worried about Jose Otero's review for the game. He nitpicked the game to death in that IGN podcast.
>criticised the voice work
>said the world/landmarks arent as memorable as other open world games
>compared the quests in X to Fallout 4's quests & criticised them for not being more like that game
>hated that you were locked out of doing story quests when you accepted a kizuna quest & was annoyed that you couldnt cancel a kizuna quest once you'd accepted it
>didn't like that it takes 30 or so hours until you get your first Skell
pretty much getting a 5/10 from Jose Otero.
Cheers, Jose

As in "will it win any GOTY awards from major gaming news sources", no. Didn't even get a single nomination at the VGAs.
On a personal level, for me, yes.
>>318317027
Ok but the kill X amount of Y quests in the Wii game have no story at all.
>>318317198
>compared the quests in X to Fallout 4's quests & criticised them for not being more like that game
Fucking lol.
>>318317198
>also criticised the story saying it felt like monster of the week episodes
>>318317198
He didnt sound that low on it but it was very nitpicky. Those damn California Mexicans.
Ok, how do I convince my local gamestop to give me the game early?
>>318317198
>tfw IGN will say pic related is better than X
>>318317632
rape them
>>318317198
>>criticised the voice work
Well he has a point there.
>>318317632
tell them you are on undercover boss and you are the CEO of gamestop
>>318317198
>hated that you were locked out of doing story quests when you accepted a kizuna quest & was annoyed that you couldnt cancel a kizuna quest once you'd accepted it
thats so dumb lmao
>>318317632
Become friends with one of the losers that work there.
>>318317632
Offer them sex.
>>318317969
One of the losers is my cousin but he's too much of a loser to break rules.
>>318317198
>said the world/landmarks arent as memorable as other open world games
What the fuck? There's a gigantic fucking alien disc thing in the middle of a desert that you can see for miles around. What open world games has he been playing?
>not putting Celica in your party
yall fuckin up already
>>318317304
They do though. Just not very much. That's been streamlined and the more important quests given more story.
Anyone have a picture showing all the female characters you can recruit? I want to see the potential waifus.
>>318317198
He's right. You guys have been hyping yourselves up way too much for what's going to be a super mediocre experience.
It's disappointing to say the least, and I say that as someone who loved Xenoblade Chronicles.
>>318318265
This. Way cuter than Potato-chan, enough for me to actually put her in my future party, which would normally be males only.
>>318318678
You can think what you like, but everyone's getting mainly hyped off the stuff we already know about.
We won't be disappointed.
>>318318840Ayylmao, Lin, and Irina for me.
>>318318840
elma, lin and probablycelicafor me
>>318318840

>>318318840
Add the voice actresses breh.

>>318318840
speaking of party members, should we base our party so we can cover all different fuck i forgot the name, "factions" ? "jobs" ?
or can we have redundancies?
>tfw I bought the digital version
Oh well. At least I'll get to play it as soon as possible.
>>318318936
Whatever makes you feel better. Just remember that I warned you.
>>318319620
>Trying this hard.
You can stop pulling that shit because everyone here knows EXACTLY what they are in for.
>>318319776
And you can stop taking the bait.
