>>321534590
The only augment you need is an Ares90. There's literally no way you can die in Yggralith that way. For Telethia is good to have any augment that ignores reflect of beam/thermal damage.

Unless you mean the real Telethia the Endbringer.
Is there a real Yggralith or is it just the global nemesis?
>>
>>321534735
The story is not "godawful". There barely is any. Only thing people can say is "Why didn't this happen" when the game doesn't let anything happen because it ends. All you can do is speculate. Everything in that post can be defended by saying "What the hell do you know? The story ended before it could be explained".


The story is simply non-existent

>>321535503
the affinity quests aren't even really good. People say they give character development, but they don't. Each character in this game is one dimensional and has one single defining trait, and the only thing those affinity quests do is shove the one dimensional traits down your throat, as if you weren't already thoroughly aware of them
>>
>>321535503
You probably already got spoiled of literally everything remotely good about the little story it has. Seriously. EVERYTHING. And execution isn't very good either.
Don't play this game for the story. Simply don't. You'll be mad, disappointed and, well, the game doesn't even want you to do that so expect the shittiest pacing ever if you do that.
>>
I'm only chapter 9, so I don't know how the plot goes, but would a sequel even be possible? Unless they manage to somehow leave mira at the end, you've already explored/colonized/seen all of mira, that's the best part of the gameplay already recycled

So how do I make a level 60 frame more worthwhile than the Ares? I haven't really been doing anything the last few days because I have no idea how to progress.

>>321536045
There are 12
>>
>>321535987
A sequel would definitely be possible. You will walk away from the last chapter with more questions than you started. Unfortunately, Takahashi's comments in a TIME interview seem to lean toward the notion that he doesn't want to do a sequel. They're pretty vague though, so who knows.
Basically, just play for the exploration and don't pay much attention to the story. You'll be less disappointed that way

Use an art tied to the weapon you want to start a combo with (purple is fine as long as its tied to that weapon) and then within a few seconds of finishing that art, use the art that has extra effects from a combo.
For example, if you have an orange art that says "extra damage in melee combos" use an art for your melee weapon and then use the orange "combo" art.

It's a natural bump in quality above normal missions.

Basic missions: Who cares about context. Just accept every quest on the board and do some things.
Normal (npc) missions: Have some dialogue boxes. Your quality will strongly vary.
Affinity missions: Now you have voice acting and some better moments with side characters.
Story (chapter) missions: You might actually get a cutscene that isn't canned animations. And a boss.

I beat chapter 7 yesterday. Does the story do ANYTHING with the lifehold unit at the northern beach of Primordia? I can't believe they would find the second one in Oblivia first.

I'd like the affinity quests alot more if the party members interacted with someone besides the mute MC. For anyone who isn't Elma or Lin, they rarely interact with anyone besides the MC in affinity missions, not even the other party members. This just comes off as really awkward, since the character is basically having a conversation with themselves. You can't really show off a character's personality or wit when they have no one to bounce off of

>Each character in this game is one dimensional and has one single defining trait
Nonsense. Take Lin for example.

Lin is a mechanic, chef, and suffers from poor self confidence. Shes young, but around Elma, tries to acts mature, although with time she's become a bit more relaxes and carefree. She rarely lets herself be kid, but its evident in her second heart to heart she just wants to relax from time to time. She feels compelled to help NLA and humanity's cause in any way possible due to her parents death and the knowledge they gave her. She acknowledges that she needs a lot of work to stand up to the expectations expected of her, and often spends far too much time working because she doesnt want to let anyone down. She learned to cook from her mother, and finds it a calming activity, and one that again helps out the people around her. She chooses to use a shield in battle not because she's afraid, but because she's willing to do anything to protect her unit. She knows that she was given a spot in Elmas team because Elma seen something in her and shes not wanting to let her down.

No character has a single defining trait.

Maybe. Shimonura isnt my cup of tea at the best of times (pianos and overusing strings - the composer) but I think I could have gotten behind the soundtrack if it were all by her. It just feels very disconnected from the game at times, but when it does click it clicks well, particularly in a few of the field musics. I pretty much hated every battle theme though. The soundtrack paints this picture of fantasy and then throws metal at you in the battle themes.

I did all of the affinity missions that you can do up to chapter 11.
The only thing those missions do is take the single trait the characters have and shove it down your throat repeatedly
>Boze hates xenos across three quests
>Alexa loves Skells across three quests
Such deep characterization
>>321538602
None of the above. The characters are genuinely flat as fuck. Theres about 3 characters in the game who get meaningful character development.

I recently obtained the final party member in Xenoblade 1. Roughly how much longer should the game take me and is it worth grinding up their passive abilities?

Just got the game. Picked Curators because I heard it's easy to level at first. I was told that Prospectors is the best choice later when I have a Skell. Not sure what class to start toward though. Which one's really fun? Or which is best to begin with? Just the top path like the game recommends?
>>
I found a nice grinding spot for level 45-60 if you guys want it.

At the top of the waterfall at the north of Noctilum there's 3 lvl 60 crocodiles that go dow really easy yet give 800 exp each, and are right next to a fast travel poi tt for easy grinding. You really only need 2 high level characters (above 50) to take them down so your other characters get the exp as well.

Aragorn

Really? I played endlessly for 2 weeks but this passed week I've just slowed down.

Once you've got a good set of skills/arts/augments all the battles just become you staring at the cooldowns and triggering the same combos while listening to Wir fliegen.

I've done most of the interesting missions, the remaining ones are always easy and just more fast travelling.

The grind for endgame items is just so tedious and repetitive. Constant fast travelling and looking for monsters and teleporting back to skells to get monsters to respawn for more grinding.

I'll still 100% it but probably over the next few months rather than days.

>>321540241

No, I experimented. I've unlocked all the classes and just looked at the best combos before spending my BP to max the arts out (all my arts are at L3 is minimum.

Ended up with Crit/TP-focus. So just infinitely overdrive and use high-crit high-potential arts for massive damage.

The game is all about experimentation so I suggest you only use a guide when you're seriously stuck at something.

>>321540412

Nope. The game pretty much tells you to maintain your overdrive when it's first introduced. You can see how much it benefits you just from the multipliers and the fact that the music barely gets a chance to play with a short overdrive. So it's normal for anyone actually paying attention to the game to go into the arts and figure out how to achieve that.

People in this thread that don't know how to even fast travel are the types that need a guide to hand-hold them for every simple step.

I doubt that, but I could see the whole planet being some kind of super alien computer that's basically just an advanced lifehold so like an artificial afterlife basically.

The original Xenoblade was all about there being no need for god so I can see them doing something like that.

Might be the Gamespot articles then. Even then, it's not rocket science to read all the interviews then deduce that the experiments were:

>Making a large open world game for the first time.
>Rewriting the game to accommodate online play and a custom protagonist.
These are the only things that are new with X and these are also the things Takahashi has repeatedly talked about being new to Mono Soft.

The Iwata Asks even has them mentioning how Takahashi's initial script could be published as a novel because of how much there is to it.

I'm playing xenoblade on gamecube for first time.

the sidequests are lame and there are so many. I'm 16 hours in and in colony 6 mines with fucktons of sidequests done. but even if you grind if you're too overleveled you don't get exp.

story doesn't seem THAT amazing. the combat feels like ff12 which is fine. the menus are lame and crafting is awful.

with that said...the landscapes and music are truly awesome. but besides this I'm not quite sure if this game is living up to all the hype I've heard.

anyhow I'm thinking of dropping it. or at least make it to some snow area that people saw looks cool. when does the story pick up?

If you still haven't finished the game, don't bother with lewd outfits.

As for nemesis, they are world events that you access in the barracks under Squad Missions. They are bosses with millions of HP bars that you see how many you can deplete in a limited amount of time. When you finish, you get shit you can sell for tickets (you get like 1.5k each run), and at the end of the event (it says in the mission), you get spoils that, in the case of telethia, is like 98 Telethia Stem Cells
