It's because britfags are brainless sheep.

They buy the games all their mates buy, they buy all the yearly stuff like Fifa and CoD. They go on and on about graphics and moan about DLC even though they will buy it anyway. They won't get any games for a not well known franchise like Xenoblade. Also you're generally a faggot if you have a Wii U rather than an Xbone or PS4.

In which case, I'm a britfag faggot myself but I don't give a shit

Can confirm. PS4's are like designer handbags over here. All the guys I know who have them (with one exception) do not even game on them.

They sit with their GF's watching netflix on it with 1-2 games of Fifa a month. Gaming is not a huge thing in the UK and the ones who do seem to be PC users.

It's by far the most beautiful game ever made actually. Only the characters are PS2-tier and you rarely even see them up close.

Soon, screenshots will start getting posted and everyone will be floored at all these sceneries.

>>
>>319281556

No game exists that has environments even in the same ballpark as it.

In realism and detail, sure, but not if you take artistic merit into account. And ESPECIALLY when you consider that none of XBX's sceneries are "fake" - you can climb all over everything you see.

Of course many stylized games can be subjectively considered better looking.

>>319281564

And that's totally true. Xenoblade for Wii sold like shit so Xeno X was going to sell like shit even being two of the best JRPG ever existed.

Japanese nichegame that shat all over its fanbase by getting censored on an almost dead platform. Not surprising at all. You might aswell wait for a vita game to be the top 1 best selling game with expectations as unrealistic as yours.
>>
>>319282416

lmao op blown the fuck out

>>319279273
At least it ranked. Expecting a JRPG on Wii U released in the UK to be successfull is silly.

You know what make Xenoblade good?
dual audio
Even then Brit voices was objectively better
>>
good, eurokeks made the right decision.

the game has a poor story, a mute MC and a soundtrack that ranges from terrible to boring.
>>
>>319279273
niche game, that gets censored losing the people who would have bought the game killed this game.

You can censor a main stream game that won't hurt it but a game like mugen souls or xenoblade needs to be uncensored to sell well

i doubt the censorship hurt sales at all, but nintendo can fuck off regardless.

I also didn't buy it purely for the stupid localisation adding in horrible memes, and the removal of the bust slider.

This. I mainly use my PC but when I do go on my PS4, the few friends I have added are always on CoD, Destiny or Fifa. A few lately have been on Fallout 4 too.

It's just simple ideal world maths my friend. If everyone in this thread bought the game bar 5-6 people, with (currently) 28 IPs actually being around, and considering these people most likely bought xenoblade chronicles (I know I did, I'm just refusing to buy X for aforementioned reasons) then it's 'on a large scale' a huge drop in sales

I was one of the most vocal people against NoA's ruining of the game.
I played the game for 30 hours, it's still great. The voice acting is tolerable, and despite the loss of the Engrish flavour the original had the names are practical and easy to remember.
Regarding censorship, I equip Lin in heavy armor anyway, so I don't feel this affects my game too much. For going skimpy there is always Elma, which is a miracle of the universe.

More people are going to not buy it because it's a game in a niche series on the Wii U than dumdums whining about censorship and translation.

It's a great game and I couldn't give two shits about how well it sells or what the internet's opinion is of it. It's my GOTY and I loved a lot of games in 2015.

i went to grab super mystery dungeon a few weeks ago and they were surprised to be out of the game considering not many were asking for it.

Fuck me. Takahashi even said he'd have a regular story on top of the stuff they figured out in this one.

Not all of the "hardcore crowd" are pedophiles.

In fact, I'd hazard that almost none of them are.

>>319279273

Wasn't this game actually pretty low-budget? I remember reading via a takahashi interview that their team was really small, and that a lot of the difficulty came from them not having AAA backing.

I'm be curious as to how much it needs for Nintendo to be satisfied if that's true.
