Pretty nice, let's get a thread going
>>318447420
Squads are the "passive" multiplayer feature of Xenoblade X. At any moment as long as your Wii U is actively connected to the internet, you will be loosely connected with 31 other players also adventuring on Mira, making a 32 person squad that is actively connected to one another in a handful of ways. First thing of note, this does not mean you can see their actual avatars adventuring around the world a'la an actual MMORPG, but what it does mean is the following...
You can't see the actual players, but you can see NPC versions of their avatars adventuring around the world. When you see them, you can interact with them, and even invite them to your party. They will earn experience (for the actual player), and you gain a temporary, and possibly quite valuable (depending on their level) ally. I believe their membership in your party expires after a couple of hours so do as much as you can with them to get the most out of their help (assuming their character is equipped lvl/gear-wise to help you).
>>318447589
You can send messages out for your entire squad to see. You might do this for a few reasons, to give some advice about something you've found, or in general just send out a message because you're feeling social. Everyone in your squad has the ability to "+1" your messages, and messages that receive a lot of +1's will be broadcast to the entire playerbase.
You can hold a "Treasure Deal" that anyone in your squad can opt-in to participate in. This is sort of like trading but less direct. When you find an item you don't need but feel it would be a waste to just throw away, you can put the item up for a Treasure Deal to your squad. People will opt-in and basically it's a dice roll for the item between everyone who opted in.
You can also choose to see the achievement spam of everyone in your squad but this is a really spammy feature that many people actually turn off. Me personally I wouldn't recommend it but some people get a sense of "liveliness" seeing that other people are earning things in their midst, so to speak. Sometimes you can see people earn an achievement and be like "Oh, how do I get that one?", or "Wow they have an achievement for that?!". Achievements are novelty by definition so this function isn't really helpful for anything other than trying to promote that "community" feeling of the world being alive.
>>318447704
The last purpose of squads are Squad Tasks. Every 2 hours (cmiiw) you receive 5 objectives. If you've seen any footage of XBCX you'll often notice the UI for it in the bottom right. A selection of 5 monsters and/or gatherables and a counter under each one, showin the progress. Players within your squad must work together to clear these squad objectives by killing the according number of monsters or collecting materials that the counter dictates. Whenever you clear each of the 5 objectives, it will increase the number of Squad Missions you can run when you teleport back to NLA and check the mission counter. More on Squad Missions later.
Sometimes the objectives can be difficult to find, so even if you're being a lazy fart, if you happen upon the right objective mobs that people don't seem to be killing, send out a squad-wide message telling everyone where you found it! This happens a lot in the JP version and it's massively helpful in conducting a quick and easy objective clear.
Clearing Squad Tasks will net your entire squad goodies, so it's in your benefit to work with your squad to clear them.
I'd be more hyped if the English dub wasnt absolute fucking garbage. Seriously one of the worst I've heard in years. The entire cast is just a bunch of shitters. Not to mention all the script changes and ridiculous NoA shit like pic related with their retarded puns.
>hurrr this is good writing
Treehouse shouldn't be allowed to work on the sequels. Let them handle Tomodachi Life and Mario and shit. NoJ should just force them to outsource to an actually competent localization company so this crap doesnt happen again. Fucking embarrassing how bad this dub is.
>>318447812
Squad Missions
This is the main multiplayer-related component of Xenoblade Chronicles X. Once you pop any of the 5 squad tasks spoken about in the above text, it will unlock a number of missions at the blade mission board back at your BLADE HQ. These missions can be tackled in a party of up to 4 real players, which is formed through invites which can be sent out simply by scanning a list of your entire squad. You can observe all 31 of your squad mates' levels, class, gear, and make a decision whether you'd like to invite them or not. No matter where they are on planet mira, they can accept your invite, however they can also decline if they wish not to run a mission with you so try to invite as many friends as you can for maximum fun. If you are unable to fill your party, you may fill gaps in your party with any of your BLADE NPC characters such as Elma or Lin. It is possible to enter these missions by yourself, simply accompanied by 3 NPCs, and some of the easier missions are cleared easily in this way, but with higher level/more difficult missions you will want to bring as many actual human players as you can in your party for reasons I will explain later.
>>318448006
Clearing 1 out of 5 tasks will often unlock a low level mission or two at the mission table, this might discourage you to hear, but no fear! Monolith Soft was aware of this conundrum, so they've incorporated level scaling for every single multiplayer mission. That means if you're level 50, and you go in to a multiplayer mission that was designated as lvl 20 difficulty, you will be scaled down to something like lvl 25 or so. This means that while you will still reap the benefits of your earned arts, gear, and of course your practical experience, it isn't an utter and complete face-roll for you, which would make running these missions pointless. The rewards at the end of the mission will give you possibly rare loot, depending on the enemies you tackled within said mission, and squad vouchers which you can spend near the mission table on various special items like for your Collectapedia. I've also seen useful consumable items on that list.
That being said, as you clear the 2/5th task, the 3/5th task, and get closer and closer to clearing all 5 tasks, the amount of missions that begin to unlock at the mission table increases exponentially. Where popping the first task may net you 1-2 somewhat lower level/easy difficulty missions. Clearing a 2nd objective will get you 2-3 more missions of higher difficulty/rarer loots.
Fucking pedophile Gamergate creeps need to stop bullying my super progressive game
>>318448105
Logically, you can presume that in order to be qualified for the biggest, baddest monsters and the rarest, strongest loot, you need to unlock the missions that come with clearing all 5 tasks. This is how you will increase and maximize your chances of getting a "Nemesis" mission which is taking down a fearsome boss which is undoubtedly going to drop you some sick loot. If you join multiplayer-minded squads, aim for clearing the squad tasks! Monsters in Xenoblade X can range all the way up to lvl 99+, so you will never trivialize the content, only make it more manageable (the maximum character level is much less than 99, I'll be unspecific to avoid possible spoilers for people).
Successfully completing Squad Missions will push progress on a Conquest meter bar of sorts. The higher you push this meter through the continuous completion of squad missions, the closer you get to initiating a "Nemesis" event (World Enemy in the JP version). There are various Nemesis at varying level ranges (and again, you are level scaled to them).
The manual will tell you that if you want the absolute best gear in the game for both your skells and your character/s...you want these missions as much as you can get them (and of course, to successfully complete them, which requires team work!).

When this game was first announced this was the game that would have got me to get a WiiU. Glad I dodged that colossal bullet, maybe I'll play in with an undub in a decade off an emulator.
Reminder that you should never buy a Xeno game as all of them have been censored since 1998, and that by supporting this series you are allowing SJWs to ruin the indusrty.:^)

It's pathetic.
>>318448465
seriously go be a normie somewhere else.
Is there any chance of someone getting around the region locking on the wii u without me having to have version 0.004 and never being able to go online ever again? Please dear fucking god let the NX be region free, except then I would still have to be afraid if they do some shit where some games will be locked off still somehow

>>318448107
The removal of the Boob Slider is disappointing, but not enough for me to get super mad about.
Who the fuck cares if your potato wears spats or panties?
Changing the name from Dolls to Skells is directly contradictory to NOA's marketing strategy saying 'the people who are going to buy already know about it'. Fucking dumb desu senpai, but it still matters little.
I'm just excited formecha
>>318448887
Rugga fucked off to 8ch and made his own board for shitting up their /v/

>>318447420
You won't get a decent thread going for a couple weeks now that the shitposters are back and fully loaded. Sorry, OP.
>>318447420
That's the same score Disgaea 5 had in the first 24 hours of reviews. I expect it drop a few points like like D5 did as well. Disappointing score but we all knew it wasn't that good after pic related.
>>318449075
Did they get rid of that burrito?

>>318448962
>wanting to get spoiled
It's not a huge deal, considering how much FUCKING STORY there is, but it still sort of sucks to have the main plot spoiled that hard.
If this were any other game that'd be a serious punch in the nuts. The fact that the game's actual story is so spread out among the 100 affinity missions and the normal missions softens the blow, but it still stings.
>>318449265
Oh his name is Lao? I like Leo more.

>>318449387
>there are people who look up the endings to games and post them in /v/ threads because they'll never get to play the games
Wow, that actually makes me feel kind of sorry for them. You know, in the way that you pity an alcoholic who beats up children because their own life didn't turn out too well.
>>318449457
Fuck, Taco bell is so tasty, but so bad for you

Do I need to post a pic of my time stamped wii u? I have the CE preordered, in just sick of people calling others pedos for wanting the boob slider back. If theyre going to shitpost like that, they can get fucking spoiled. Go fuck yourself.
>>318449594I don't disagree with you bruv
>>318447420
I refuse to support censorship.
I will never buy a wii u for that fact alone.
>>318449712

You are part of the problem and have no right to complain, fucking SJW cocksucker.
>>318449712

>>318449869
I already wrote an email and tweeted NoA with my thoughts regarding them cutting content.

OK, enjoy not playing the best JRPG in years because you are retarded. Nobody gives a fuck about your 'sacrifice'.
>>318449712
>getting mad over shitposters on /v/
Thanks, man, I needed a laugh.
Is there a point in buying the retail disc version if I will have to download a 10 gigs patch to makr everything run smooth?
if the whole game isnt in the disct I think I may buy it digitally, it is not like you own the full game in the disc.

well then post it nigger, i bet you don't even own a wii u nor preorder the CE

Translation:
>I'm sick of one or two dedicated shitposters stirring up crap so I'm going to spoil the ending for the dozens of other people reading the thread, while those shitposters are unaffected because they also are not going to buy the game.
Your strategy is just so good, man.

Nintendo censorship precedes Capcom cenosrship.
It's happened in 2 Nintendo games versus 1 Capcom game.
People already raged at the Nintendo censorship for weeks and Nintendo just sends automated e-mail responses.
Nobody is willing to take a stand and form a group like Project Rainfall did to get the 3 Japanese Wii games over here for this particular fight.
Those are your reasons.
As for whether or not it's a deal breaker, it isn't much but it definitely hurts more if the Japanese release also gets censored for SFV as a result of SJayDubya backlash.

How are you finding it? I got about 90 hours in, haven't played it for like a week or so. I feel as though I'm at a point of no return as far as the story goes so I should really just complete it. Constant grinding at level 80 now through Satorl Marsh.
Maybe it's a testament to how much I loved this game I just don't want to finish with it.. Every time I load it up I only spend time trying to max out every single Art.
Looking at the quest list I still have ones left from an area that cannot be returned to (not gonna spoil shit for you).

Game has buttrock soundtrack, confirmed by Jim
(I'm Hype)
Any chance region lock will ever be removed or someone will have a simple fix for it? I don't even really want this used because of the fucking voice acting, if they let you turn off sfx in options It would be okay but they don't.
I hope funimation burns to the ground I hate that retards love hearing the same 10 people that have no range and never sound the age of their character in very game/anime (how is anyone past the age of 14 watching anime STILL watching dubs? HOW? is it just black kids or something? No one buys shit either, is crunchyroll and toonami keeping dubs alive?)

Uh oh, am I going to be spending 5 hours pulling my hair out looking for something
Could anyone tell me how soon I need to worry about missing stuff in Chronicles by getting too far into the story?
Someone told me you can get fucked trying to get Riki's extra trees if you ignore Frontier village, so I'm grinding that out (fuck this zone).
I just got to Mechonis Field in the main story.
I know the 5th trees are done late in the game. Do I need to worry about missing anyone else's 4th tree?
>>318450049
It's all up to you. The digital version is like 23 GB though.
The whole game is on the disc, the patches just install some of the data on the Wii U itself so it can load it faster. Reading off of a disc isn't instantaneous, you know.

>blurry youtube capture

>>318453784
The internet exists, and you can get the official guide for like 20 bucks, so I guess the answer to that question is if you really want to or not.
fucking hell this battle theme is garbage.
>>318453784
I've seen a couple of reviewers complaining about the same thing. Not sure if it they're retards or if it's a legitimate complaint. We'll see soon enough.
>>318453907
Do I need to download the patches if I go digital? I see them in the DLC section but I have no way of knowing if it was already included in the original download.
>>318453842
After a certain story point, the entirety of Mechonis will no longer be accessible, so make sure to finish up all the stuff related to it while you're there.
>>318454101
Does that include Fallen Arm?
>>318453509
Gems are replaced with augments and work similarly in that you can replace augments in different armor slots and they won't permanently disappear.
>>318454332
No, Fallen Arm remains for the remainder of the game.
>>318454402
Only difference is that you can keep augmenting until every stat is maxed out.
>>318454054
I've never seen a reviewer complain about something like this that didn't turn out to be trivial to resolve. Maybe they included a hint because they know most reviewers can barely feed themselves.
>>318449387
I'm not getting any fucking Nintendo game after the bullshit price increase. Fuck paying 79.99 for a new Nintendo game. Same goes for fucking Xbone and ps4
>>318454096
On the official website it says they're for people who bought the physical version
>>318454559
This, not defending the game in any way but if Nier has taught me anything its that reviewers are fucking retarded.
>>318454054
Its the simple gathering quests like the original game where they don't tell you where to find stuff, not quests that have you looking for key items.
Basically, don't accept normal gathering quests and instead just hand in items once you have enough.
Fuck....I really hadn't read any spoilers. This is pretty disappointing. I was really looking forward to this too, I wanted to go in knowing little about the story. Well fuck, this just killed my night. I made it this far without reading any spoilers too, and then I get them by surprise just a few days before. Dammit...I guess I'll go have some whiskey and go to sleep.
>>318449075
You forgot one.
>>318454821
Which really should be common sense to anyone as soon as you realize there's a 20-quest cap. You only accept the ones you can control or already have ready to complete.
>>318455067
Exactly, it sucks that Takahashi didn't improve a way for easy to find items, but its not the worst thing ever, like some of the reviewers were claiming.

No, you've seen two at most. They appear in almost every thread, paste in the same comments and insult anyone who doesn't actively agree with them. Watch video of the early part of the game (there's at least one, possibly on one of the shittier websites) and judge for yourself.

On top of mediocre dub, they butchered all most of the archetype and characterization that the original Japanese had.
Not to mention the reduced number to half of available voices to choose from for MC.
XCX is the Dark Dawn of the Xenosaga series
>>318456632
Come on man, don't be so delusional. Theres more than two people who dislike the dub. Personally I think it's pretty bad myself. Characters are pretty lifeless and most of the dialogue is not good. Treehouse and NoA didn't even come close to doing this game justice imo.

Considering the word is originally German I don't think error the Japanese made in transcribing it really matter.

On that topic, I think it's funny that people shit on Elma's english VA when her japanese VA is Samevoice Jane.
>>318459975
The Wels Catfish is also pronounced, primarily with the v sound /ˈvɛls/

>>318460206
While I like the Japanese VA, I didn't think she did a great job as Elma as some say. Her soothing voice if great for calm Elma, but when Elma gets pissed and lets out a more stern tone she basically sounded the same as calm Elma.
With the English one, her issue is that she is great as Stern/angered Elma, but the soothing isn't as good.
>>318460378

Shhh. All seiyuu are talented actors who certainly aren't typecast as a matter of course.

That isn't evidence, it's telling us how to pronounce a word (which is already known) you've declared to be the true meaning as it appears in game. Provide evidence supporting this claim.
Lower than I hoped, but based on what I'm hearing in the reviews it's still worth a shot.
Specifically, the huge, explorable world sounds like a huge plus.

https://youtu.be/T1LzruO-eUU

I'd like you to present the opposite since the burden of proof is on you to prove that Wels is pronounced otherwise and is somehow not the word they were going for. Which you have yet to provide.

Are those actual complaints or is this just a case of Western journalists being casuals again?
>>318460894
>soundalikes are suddenly proof of themselves
By that logic Fei is an elf or a homosexual because it sounds exactly like fey.
I haven't made a claim other than the fact that it isn't pronounced with a v in Xenogears. You've claimed to know why it changed and what it means. You are the one who needs to provide evidence.
>data packs finally available in EU

I've got the 32gb version, and it's now showing how very short that goes. The biggest thing on my Wii U is the original Xenoblade, I'm tempted to delete it to make room for the data packs. I haven't finished yet but it's unlikely I will at this stage.

>Why can't I heal with magic class or potions?
>Can I customize the UI/Hud? I'm so confused...
>>318461242
Impossible to tell
>>318461242
At this point, you should know that unless it's a Souls game, difficulty is seen as a negative to most western reviewers. If you need further proof, go look at reviews for W101 and Dong Freeze.

Nearly everyone says that the game doesn't do a good job at explaining it's own system. Guess just experiment with what works best for you in regards to combat . Heard when it comes to survey you should to Mechanical more than the others since that gets you better probes. Outside of that read the manual or just try out new things and hope for the best.
>>318461242
>plaints from reviewers is the game is too complex and that the UI is cumbersome
Hard to tell, because apparently most people left that huge "QUEST!" up the whole game without realizing they could shut it off.
>>318461798
I just looked up the Japanese VA and she's not even bad unless she somehow got worse from the last role I heard her in.
>>318461798
The complaining is usually in the context of "UGH I HATE ENGLISH VA ELMA VOICE SUCKS WHY NO DUAL AUDIO???".
>>318461242
Polygon said the UI/combat was too complex and under-explained, Game Informer said it doesn't have enough depth and those two were the lowest scoring reviewers.
So not really, but also yes.
>>318461798
Both versions have absolutely terrible VA, hopefully that improves with the sequel.

In the sense that it's localizing wordplay that exists in the original? Seems like a meme localization.
>>318462709
>"The Skelleton Crew" is an example of meme localization
Everyone's losing their minds about this, but I really want to know what it was originally. Did they take a normal name and just make it a dumb pun or did they take a dumb pun and make it an equally dumb pun?
>>318463331
It was a dumb pun in the original, and they did just that and put quotes around it since the Japanese joke was word play.
>>318447589

Also we still don't know the context of that sentence. Google tells me "Skeleton crew" is actually a thing that could very well be a direct translation and just taken out of context for the purpose of shitposting
>>318463784

Except, that's what they actually did. They did that by using "Skells" in the first place.

>>318463893
>Skeleton crew" is actually a thing
It IS actually a thing. The reason its retarded is because NoA calls it "The SKELLeton Crew." They have to shove their stupid made up word into everything. Fuck "Skells" and fuck whatever dumbass localized the game.

Let's get real here, Metal Face is about 1000x better a name than Black Face.
Especially since Black Face's face WASN'T FUCKING BLACK.

That's what I said, it was literally in the art book explaining it. NoE did stupid pointless changes themselves.
>>318466761
Give it a month and the good threads will show up again. It's the normal cycle on /v/. Alternatively, there's always /vg/, which is actually better than /v/ for discussing video games. Then again, /v/ happens to be one of the worst boards on 4chan, so that's not saying much.

NoE did good, but they weren't perfect, hell they even changed food at the start to avoid offending anyone, but ended up changing it which be considered offensive in Europe, hilarious.
So why did it go from comfy threads the past few days to this shitposter fest here?
The review scores are good, no?
I love how this game makes sony ponies so pissed off. It's like Bayonetta 2 all over again
>>318468053
It wouldn't have mattered, people would still shit post.
Lin's costumes being changed is understandable but how can anyone defend the boob slider getting cut. That's just pure fucking butchery. Theres no justifying that.
>>318467796
Europe.Both.Whichever gets sent first, stays.If both are sent at the same time, I'll just try to sell the extra copy. The regular edition is supposed to arrive on Dec 3rd, while the LE is supposed to arrive on Dec 4th.
>>318468053
Even if they were 10/10 best game ever created it would still be this. Just with more "reviewers are all shills and paid off".
>>318467369
The boob slider anon. I, for one, don't like thinking how much of a game I'll be getting when I see gameplay of it on official channels. Heck, I wouldn't be upset if they never showed it, but the fact that they did and did not deliver, does not sit well with me at all
>>318467749

That's the version they showed us in the Treehouse gameplay. So yeah, TELL ME LIES

>>318468603
>>318468717
It's still not the US version, so your argument is still stupid. It doesn't matter what they showed at the Treehouse. It wasn't the US version, so they didn't lie.

>>318469220
Where did I say that? I'm upsetit's not included, but they never lied and said it was in. Shit is changed all the time in localization and development. Doesn't mean they lied. I can accept that and still be upset they cut stuff from the Japanese version.
>>318469330
You would be correct if it was the fucking US version you idiot.
>>318468169
You're right, I can't justify it and won't attempt to. However, as the character creation was something I was barely interested in in the first place, it's not important enough to me to make me skip the game. That probably makes me sound selfish, but at the end of the day, it's my decision what I do with my money.
>>318469047
With the direction Fire Emblem is heading, I had lost hope for the games in general around the time Fates was announced. Even if the localization is good, I'm still passing it up.
Game itself will be amazing, obviously, but that NoA dub is so goddamn bad. They've added so much meme shit and "funny" dialogue that it has a chance to ruin it for a ton of people.

>>318469954
Forgive me if the threat of the SJW menace is a lesser concern than the survival of Xeno.
I mean we've still got this epic six episode story to tell and the most the series has told so far is one or two of them.
>>318470339
I didn't say you couldn't be upset about it not being in there. I'm upset at it as well. They just didnt fucking lie. Now go back to reddit with your drakeposting ass.
>>318470498
It won't be the Xeno that is worth keeping alive if this goes on
>>318470498
This, this is all that is important to me.
>>318470659
Where were you when a lot of words were changed in Xenoblade for localization's sake?
Fake ass poser.
>>318469954
In 20 years I'll most likely either be dead or doing something else with my time. It won't be my problem anymore.
>>318469954
Sorry I like video games. I'm not going to not buy a game because of some smallish changes that don't bother me enough to not want to support the game in general. I've already voice my opinions at Nintendo about how I want them to localize games better and not take out content.
>>318470559
That basically IS lying. When we are shown a trailer, we are shown with a trust that the final product will include the features we have been presented so far. When that is not the case, it's a violation of the trust we put in it. Not that your r/videogames ass would understand. Go back to Fallout 4. Considering your defending ass, you're probably used to Todd's lies too
>>318456538
usb based external drives and flash drives have vastly different read speeds
I'm not sure exactly what the WiiU is packing but typically flash memory can be almost twice as fast as an external hard drive
>>318470994

i'm still concerned about the main story being short

>>318455065
I don't get it
>>318472828
Get what? The image wasn't altered which made people surprised and happy.
And if you mean why that at all, its because its Wels/Verus, and that is Elma's favorite, so they made a chibi moe version with Elma dressed as her favorite mech.
>>318472120
Except he didn't. They still didn't lie. I just said his argument made no sense and I'm done reiterating the same thing.
>fuckken
>...
I can't tell if /v/ has gotten this bad since I left or if you're just falseflagging
>>318472828
In Xenogears the monsters were called Wels, it's from the German and pronounced Vels. Xenoblade X has a robot named Wels that may or may not have been a reference to that.
When you translate Wels into Japanese it becomes Verusu so when NoA translated Verusu into the English instead of going with Wels as the Japanese did and previous games had they chose to go with Verus.
>>318447420
It's reviewing well I thought it was going to get a 70 metascore at best.
>>318448373
>NX confirmed for next year
Source or baiting?
>>318473187
So it's because americans don't know german?
>>318447589
So like dragons dogma but with less slave shop
>>318473187
Interesting source. You realize Japanese people don't make the w/v mistake, right?
>>318473409
More like Takahashi didn't know so the translation of Xenogears, which he admitted he fucked up at times because he had to do it alone with no reference or help, kept it up.
>>318473331
His source is nothing. The NX will be 2017 since they are in a 5 year cycle
>>318472471
It's my first time, too, but from what I understand you go in, get picked or sent home, and if you get picked you're on for a single case, in it's entirety. It can go for days.I'm gonna be so behind my friends in this fucking game.
>>318473598
That was the translator, and he got Wels right and was also associated with the current project.
>>318473409
Or that the whole thing is ambiguous and open for interpretation.
This shit is extremely common with translations. Especially when a word has a lot of V/Bs and L/Rs.
Japanese doesn't make much distinction with letters like L and R, or B and V so stuff like Light can be Right and Vig can be Big.
>>318473806
So basically the translator of that game is helping out with this game and got it right again? Okay, I understand, thank you.
The only thing I am scared of is how annoying the character lines are during battle. It's not even the voices it is just that it seems like they are saying them like a broken record.
>>318473937
To be fair, it might not be right either. Without a direct comment, this will always be speculation.
>>318473545
We're talking about Xenoblade X here. The mecha in this game is Wels, pronounced Vels and proper tanslation would be leaving it Wels rather than changing it to be Verus.
Xenogears is questionable since the translation is notoriously suspect with them fucking up other German words like Siebzhen. So the Ueruesu might be a miss translation of Wels as the English translation staff on that game went with or it could have meant that that the Wels in Xenogears weren't Wels. It's ambiguous.

>>318479692
Smug enough for you?
>>318479758
Honestly that makes me worried. The story itself is just mediocre, changing the setup of the entire game won't help that I think.
Whoever's writing the story just isn't a good writer. Xenoblade was good being just typical safe shonen schlock (albeit well done) but trying to do something deeper it seems they're just not up to par.
The tears of weebs are always amazing! They are always cryin about "muh jap audio" "muh censorship"

I also loved that part where Elma makes a pun on Dolls but fuck that English shit where Elma makes a pun on Skells and Skeleton crew.

You're part of the problem.
You can't talk about Bloodborne because as soon as one shitposter shows up the thread devolves into goldface war and neverever shitposting from both sides. There is never any end to it.

Personally I find it obnoxious, but I guess people can get used to everything.
I just finished watching Gamexplain's review and I already feel overwhelmed with the amount of info I need to process to play this game.
I've never played Xenoblade before but I'm willing to give it a shot. Am I going to have a tough time figuring all this out?
>>318484216
bestbuy.ca doesn't ship toQuebecand I've got 6 months of Amazon Prime free because of student promotions so I kinda want to take advantage of that.
>>318484216
>risking getting your game late
why?
Either go pick up your game from the store or download it, you're going to feel like shit if you get that thing 3 days late and everywhere you go to talk about it everyone's already miles ahead of you.
>>318484425
the game is hunderds of hours long, you have plenty of time to learn
>>318484425
Nah, the game takes its time to introduce everything slowly, and there's in-game guides you can read to familiarize yourself with the combat.
If it's any consolation, I had absolutely no idea what the fuck I was doing up until the first major boss fight in the original Xenoblade and I still managed to scrap by, then suddenly there's that moment when everything "clicked" and from then on I understood what was going on and what I needed to do.
Just remember to read your art's descriptions and try to memorize their effects and bonuses (like which should be used from the side or back, which should be used to inflict specific status, etc.)
>>318484491
>why?
Well, for 30% off. I've heard they're pretty decent at delivering on time.
>>318484750
That's reassuring. Just looking at the video and all the menus and terms make my head spin. But the world exploration looks awesome and hopefully this game can break my Splatoon addiction
