Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition is my game of the year
>>728957567
>>728957567Why are you posting from 2015?
>>728957660Xenoblade X was GOTY 2015Xenoblade X Definitive Edition is GOTY 2025
Same
Linly sexo
>>728957567Chapter 13 is shit.
>>728957567Too bad this shit's literally unplayable at 24fps or whatever the fuck they have it at
>>728958087But she's 13...
>>728958732I wish Nintendo wasn't charging $10 for the games to play better on the Switch 2. XCXDE would be amazing running at 4k60>>728958291Yeah, 13 is probably the worst chapter in any Xenoblade game, but the other changes DE made were fantastic, especially the massive reduction in augment costs.
Shame the character creator is so fucking awful.
>>728959373They fixed it, or rather improved it dramatically, in the Definitive Edition.
>>728959373Speak for yourself
>>728959556Why are you green?
>>728957567>Day 275 of waiting for the Switch 2 patchI want to believe in it.I hope the 60 fps toggle in the files wasn't just a test that didn't work out in the end
I must be alone in not caring about the FPS
>>728959419Negative. They actually replaced one of the decent (male) hairstyles with an exaggerated version from some character from XB2, I think. They didn't ADD a hairstyle, they REPLACED a completely different one. They REMOVED content because... ?Also the skin tones are insane. There's no way to make your nigga look like he doesn't have skin cancer. Legitimately awful shit.
>>728959985>Nintendo players suddenly care about FPSlol
I think X unironically had the best party in any Xenoblade
>>728959419>>728960280Oh yeah, not to mention certain customizations being tied to facial presets. What the fuck kind of rock of crack were they smoking with this horseshit? Might genuinely be the worst character creation in history.
>>728957567The open world, the mechas and the super bosses are great but the battle system and equipment drops in general are so fucking bad.
>>728957567So you're not terribly difficult to impress.
It should be illegal to call a censored version of the game "definitive".
>>728960526It's got the best battle system of any of the Xenoblades by a long shot.
>>728960613It didn't censor anything that wasn't already cenosred in the original.
>>728960596Xenoblade Chronicles X is my favorite game of all time.IMO, XCXDE > Silksong > E33 > Dispatch > everything else this year
>>728959227Out of 100!
>>728960614Not a high bar. Xenoblade's combat is garbage.
>>728961467I liked them all except for 2's, Torna's, 3's, and Future Redeemed's
>>728961583That just leaves 1 and X...
I got to chapter 8 or so and dropped it. And then went back and did another run through XB-2-3 and now I'm back here and having a whale of a time. Fun things are fun.
>>728957567Elma deserves to sit on my face and piss
>>728960614Yeah but its really bad. Would have enjoyed traditional turn based combat a lot more.
>>728961583So you're slightly selective about your trash.
>>728961992I think X is the most easy to get completely absorbed in, but it's also the hardest to bring yourself to 100% because of just how much damn content there is in the game.
It's certainly the best Sci-fi game to release this year. Even as bad as Ch13 is, it's still better than Metroid Prime 4.
>>728959701Because if I were blue I would die.
>>728963680But you were blue, inside and outside. Blue his house, with a blue little window and a blue corvette...
Why’s the new chapter bad? I uh.. still haven’t played it.
>>728966161Ruins the story, more or less, and it's really low quality otherwise. The first 2/3rds are a bunch of fetch quests interspaced with cutscenes, but since the game is 10 years old and a lot of VAs died/wouldn't come back, you're saddled with the characters sounding nothing like they do in the rest of the game.There's a new character exclusive to that chapter, and he's actually the Chosen One and every one of your teammates love him. He's the coolest guy around and he's the TRUE pilot of the strongest mech in the game. Also he comes out of literally nowhere.
>>728957567the game was downgraded graphically so I'll never play it over the original on cemu....I HATE that shit
>>728966506That sounds like a total bummer, yeah. I wonder why the production ended up going that way. With all the cut content that was spoken about back in the day I thought they'd have a better outline to follow. Thank you for the summary
>>728966506Don't forget, he REALLY loves you and wants you to earn his spot and mech.
>>728966161It feels rushed and like they shoved what was planned to be a full sequel into one chapter. Other than that it's fine, and I appreciate it for finally forcing the localizers to stop removing the biblical references, Elma flat out gives a full bible quote at the start of itThe new area is fun to explore and I enjoyed its final boss fight even if the final boss really does come out of nowhere, they did a good job with the presentation and fight's gimmick.
>>728967183How's it poppin?
>>728967131The chapter isn't good, but you get some pretty gnarly arts from the new character.The most egregious part of Ch13 is that, unless it is retconned, there's no room for a XCX sequel.
>>728967480>The new area is fun to exploreI didn't think so. None of the enemies are worth fighting, there's no unique drops or gear to pick up, and all you're doing is flying around a pointless map looking for your teammates. Finding some of the teammates was also a massive pain in the ass.
>>728957567Im playing that now, pretty neat world
>>728968656It's so easy to get lost in it. I can't think of a better world in any video game ever.
>>728958291I both loved it and was disappointing by it. Disappointing because they couldn't use all the cut ideas/concepts/storylines they had planned but I'm glad with how it tied into everything else and answered some questions
>>728968873IMO, it tied them all together in the wrong way. The Conduit/Zohar was already connecting all the Xeno games. We didn't need to bring a higher dimension into Xenoblade X to explicitly link them.
I'm sad we didn't get a new collage like this for the rerelease.
>>728968269>Finding some of the teammates was also a massive pain in the ass.So L got you too, huh?
I miss the Expert mode from X1 so bad. Im hitting Lv30 before chapter 6 out of pure sidequesting and wandering
>>728968873>but I'm glad with how it tied into everything elseyou think that Al floating in a void while PowerPoint slides of other game's scenes go by is satisfying?
>>728969225L, Neilnail, and Alexa could kiss my balls
>>728969817Overleveling is fine since the bulk of your power comes from your arts and gear. The original capped you at level 60 after all.
>>728957567It's such a fantastic game but I struggled to enjoy the definitive edition because it's just so dumbed down at every turn. Really soured the experience.
>>728973323I don't think that much was dumbed down other than the BLADE rank stuff. I was fine with it being tedious in the past, but I'm not too upset about them casualizing it.It really was just Ch13 that left the worst taste in my mouth. That and Liesel, Al, and Ga Jiarg being dogshit additions to the team.
does this game perform better in any way on the switch 2?
>>728958291It's not totally negative. The Ghosts are cool, the final dungeon is cool and I really like Cross fighting in the ending scene and getting the heroes welcome. But yeah for the most part X is better without it, OG ending is the best. Still prefer DE overall for all the QoL bonus and giving me back Ga Jiarg.
>>728963735elma owes me sex
>>728974957Marginally. It's a rock solid performance shattering stable 30 FPS rather than the occasional dip and faster load times.
>>728975567ah okay. cool ig. I wonder why it hasn't gotten a patch yet? it seems like a normal brainer
>>728957567Based
I'm scared to start chapter 13. Doesn't help that I feel underpowered.
Do i get to buy custom probes eventually?
>>728975338Sorry, Ch13 made it clear she's only into Al
>>728977507Negative. Probes are only earned through quests.>>728977397Ch13 is doable at level 60. Easily so. You just need a good level 50 mech. If you've got a good level 60 mech the entire chapter is a cake walk. Build yourself a Lailah Queen, throw on a superweapon, and nothing will challenge you. That's literally all you need.
>ywn plant your probe in Kirsty
>>728978320She's not even in my top 10 women to bone if I were reincarnated as Cross. Maybe top 20.
Liking censored slop? GOOD GOY! LMAO
>>728958291It really is. Better off putting it down after ch. 12.
>>728978447For me, it's1. Murderess2. Mia 3. Erio4. Elma (blueberry)5. Ga Buidhe6. Alexa7. Elma (chocolate)8. Neilnail9. Lin10. Slovity Pagus11. Celica12. Irina13. Avi14. Stella 15. Kirsty
>>728978659Eh, Ch13 takes like 3 hours total and gives you some pretty nice rewards (if you like using the Longsword or Sniper Rifle)
why is the game so weirdquest says recommended level 3 and then its around level 30 mobs
>>728957567Still waiting for the switch 2 patch/edition…
>>728978865It's legit garbage. Should never have been added. Would've been 10/10 otherwise.
>>728978919>stronger lifeforms don't exist just because a level gate says soHow does that make sense?
>>728978919Probably because the lv30 mobs are passive and you can just walk around them
>>728978919Evade them. It's annoying but just "sneak" past them. Lotta missions like that.
>>728978919That's the point of X. The world is supposed to be a living ecosystem. There are high level mobs everywhere. If you can't kill them, find a way around them (like using Elma's Shadow Walker art to become invisible to enemy detection and running past them)
>>728978975I actually 100% agree, but also it's already in the game so you might as well make use of the rewards.
>>728979042Elma's frankly rude and out of line elmas.
>>728978238That leaves rape.
>>728978919That's the whole appeal of this game, it can be dangerous sometimes, if you piss off the huge 90lv ones you just die. Or maybe you're an overdrive god and can kill them anyway.
>>728978238Elma is for Cross, cuck.
>>728979124Nigga she can kill a giant 1 million ton alien rock dinosaur by herself and tank lava, what fucking chance do you have in fucking her?
>>728979220Yeah, Ch13 cucks Cross. Good thing he's still got... let's see... dozens of adoring fans, Lin, Irina, Mia, Murderess, Erio, Avi...
>>728979280fat old man superpower
>>728979330>Ch13 cucks Cross.No it doesn't dipshit. Elma is for Cross only.
>>728979413There isn't a fat old man strong enough to go through Ghost Walker. If Elma can tank reality-warping attacks by strutting her stuff, what hope does anyone else have?
>Ghostwalker/Ghost factory spamYou didn't beat the game
>>728979909Not me. I used Reflect Art spam instead.>Dual Guns/Photon Saber build>Astrolibrium to reflect all elements>Primer/Sky High/Executioner/Zero Zero on Dual Guns>Get to chimp out on enemies in the air like I'm fucking Yoda
>>728980718Don't you need to beat some pretty tough enemies to get the reflect augs though?
>>728980776You get most of what you need from Dadaan who can be one-shot with a super weapon. Then you get Reflect:Ether from killing a level 60 Filiavent in Cauldros. From just Dadaan and that one augment, you're immune to everything except for Gravity and Electric.
>>728981349>>728980776You don't even need a strong superweapon, either. Even a level 50 superweapon is strong enough to one-shot Dadaan under the right conditions. Same with Trueno the Cataclysm in Cauldros. Gravity is the only tricky one you need to worry about. Almost nothing scary is using an Electric attack so you don't gotta worry about that, but Gravity is used almost as much as Ether by the end game. Your best bet is to grind for a piece of Orphean chest armor, which can come with Reflect:Gravity as an innate trait, or to just load up on Orphean Light/Skell gear to boost your Gravity resist to >75%.
>>728958291Chapter 13 was so bad it singlehandedly killed the Xeno series for goodMonolithsoft is going to exclusively work on Zelda games from now on
>>728957567It flopped lmaoBetween this and XC3 Monolithsoft lost all credibility as a studio lel
Eat is Food >>>>> What's poppin
>>728981620>>728981572
>>728981659What about eating the Great Tree?
>>728981665Its quite disappointing that you can't actually get the males to wear the bunny suit
>>728982697Nopon are hotter tbdesu
>>728970280yeah I thought it was pretty neat, I liked all of the Al stuff
>>728981832>>728982881>That lucky guy who got to bang one of these.Just imagine all the race mixing in this game. >ganglien >catgirls>bug people>bird people>orb mom and here daughters
>>728959701why aren't you?
