Xenoblade thread.
switch 2 updates soon or i will be very mad
>>730972810Then get mad
>>730972810Suck it up, buttercup.You’re not the only one.
Any hope Nintendo bought the rights to xenosaga?
so any reason why xenosaga was removed from Namco Bandai's website?
>>730973310I think at least 4 other franchises were removed too, including baten kaitos, so it could just be a mistake or them being too insignificant to mention.
>>730973052They did Pikmin bros dirty.Us Xenofags are getting completely ignored by Nintendo but you guys got teased by an update that seemed like a Switch 2 upgrade but for some reason had no performance improvements at all.
Top ten asses in xenoblade series. Rank them!
nia butthole
>still at least a year before a new game
>>730975248Monica has a fantastic ass. And I'm tired of pretending she doesn't.
>>730973214No.
>>730972810I'm still waiting for the switch 2 update for XB2 before I replay it
>>730975248Mio is number 1
2 > X > 1 > 3
>Moebius Anon, I've accessed Origin's arc system to access Perun's data 20 times in the past week. And yet she's not joined the Endless Now's flow. Is there a reason why?
>>730973645what were the other two
I see blades but I don't see any xenos.
>>730975332The male characters also inherit her ass, because the textures used for her model are also the same ones used for the men.
>>730977087
>>7309718713 sucks so much.
>>730972810The only thing I want is 2 to get Japanese text. Every other game on switch lets you swap between Japanese and English. Why does 2 only have voice(and as DLC too).
>>730977330
>>730976008Did this model make her ass bigger or just gives the illusion of a bigger ass? Eunie has a bigger and nicer ass, and fiora is still the ass queen.
>>730977207Ga Buidhe deserves better, at least more fanart and modded models.
>>730976008we know Noah.
>>730973214Yes. Just started emulating it on my Steam Deck. It ain't running so well.
>>730976760I like the cut of your jib anon, though I could flip a coin on whether I prefer X or 2.
>>730972810It's already 4k 120fps on PC>bb-b-butok so you don't actually care about playing the game on the best settings, sorry my bad
>>730977765She does legitimately have a big butt in-game.
>>730978148I'm so glad I played Xenoblade 3 late and got to use those costumes in my playthrough. I was actually like a chapter before the jail scene when the amiibo costumes were released and I just used those going forward for Noah and Mio
I really hope Xenosaga isn't going to be required reading for future games. I do wish I knew what a Kosmos actually was but I don't particularly care to play those games.I'm worried cause it got referenced in FR
Shania being choked.
>>730978148>She does legitimately have a big butt in-gameWhat constitutes as a big butt? Might isnt even the top 5 largest asses. Who is a small or average ass in the game?
I just unlocked skellsyayyyyyyI think I'm just gonna stick with the infinite overdrive build I got with Elma right now. Maybe I'll change my tune once I can get flight and some good weapons, but for now I just won't bother, though it feels a bit sad to just ignore the kickass mech
>>730979839Mechs are a very significant power boost compared to the "base" ground combat you have earlygame, but if you already have an Infinite Overdrive build going on then yeah, they'll just feel underpowered and slow.
>>730979086She legit needed a good mating press
>>730979939Early game doesn't exist past chapter 6(I think that's the overdrive chapter). Elma at base comes with an infinite overdrive build and because of Ghost walker she's effectively immortal. Very funny.
>>730976760Nice. I would 3 > 1 but that's just personal preference.
>>730979939Battles were absolutely horrible before I got infinite overdrive but now they're awesome...A little too awesome honestly, I feel a bit too OP doing this but the alternative is battles taking forever so I guess this is better
>>730980213The entire endgame is you on your Mecha, abusing superweapons.
>>730980284The endgame is one-shotting everything with broken ground builds.
I wish i could play xenoblade chronicles 3 again for the first time
>>730979839I wish for a xenoblade spinoff that plays like star wars battlefront.
>>730975332I barely remember anything she said or did in the game because my eyes were always on her body, lmao. I got the siccness for the thiccness.
>>730980320It's pretty solid. Pic related was by far my favorite moment. It spent so much time trying to make you feel miserable leading up to it, only to pull the rug out from N's feet in the most spectacular way possible.
>>730972810Xenoblade X already has an internal 60fps mode, what the fuck are they waiting for?
>>7309752481. Elma2. Noah in Monica's outfit3. Kora4. Dahlia
Bird
>>730980315gotta be honest I don't know how, I can oneshoot anything not named Telethia with superweapons but with ground builds I can't dish out that much damage.
I have yet to play X despite having completed 1-3. I'm not sure if I'm willing to get a Switch 2 just to play 4 or whatever sequel comes out on it either.
How have you improved your life since playing Xenoblade 3?You haven't just fucked around and stagnated in your comfort zone because you're afraid of an uncertain future, have you?
>>730980001No, she needed a hammer to the skull.
>>730980528
>>730980894Buy the game and emulate it if you don't want to get a SW2, is an amazing game from a gameplay perspective the plot is paper thin and you have to go all out of your way to look for it
>>730980320I don't.
>>730980937I do the bare minimum extra where I feel good about myself but don't actually go out of my way too much because my future's out of my hands. The volatility of these past few years have taught me that much.
does anyone have the image of riku xenoblade 3 edited into the jesus scene from xenosaga 3
>>730981419
>japanese humourat least hikari is cute. playing x right now and im trying to get the skell license, lin is my wife.
Eunie and Ashera should've kissed y/n?
>>730982916no, kys yurifag
>>730982916mio and nia should've kissed
>>730971871Why did Xenoblade 3 have so much less of a cultural impact than Xenoblade 2?
>Children of previous protagonists>No one gives a shit about themWhat went wrong?It's not even the fanbase, even in the game itself the others were cool but these two were just terrible (especially Nikol)
>>730983728should've had more kids. mythra, pyra and nia needed to be permanently pregnant.
>>730972810I say this every thread. Throw us a fuckin bone monolith. Even if it's just for the first game and X or something.
>>730983728They have zero focus in the game.Their dads eat up all the screentime in the DLC.
>>730971871Patch when?
>>730983941Next direct.
>>730983869if i fuck glimmer would it be like fucking rex?
>>730983728>Nia's kid co-stars in 3>Mythra's kid will probably be important in 4>Pyra's kid just gets shoved to the side in a DLC
>>730984146>one kid eachid kneel if mythra had several kids that play a part
: )
>>730984146>>Mythra's kid will probably be important in 4Nah.
>>730984091yesmio too
>>730983728
>>730984091Retard.
>>730982641>hikari
>>730984224disgusting.
>>730984310They are sisters right? that would make Matthew Glimmer's grandnephew?
>>730984491you're in a fucking Xenoblade thread secondary.
>>730975332Props to Gondor's teammate who wanted to tap that and become Gondor's dad. What a guy.
>>730971871I'm playing right now, literally just hit chapter 1.This isn't bait, I promise but: am I crazy or is the voice acting and actually just sound quality in general worse than 2? I mean I'm not saying it's ruining my experience but the VA work at this point feels very "First game of the series" not third.
>>730984667
>>730979086Everyone is going to eventually get reborn in the new combo world. Will nu-Shania redeem herself or will she just shoot herself in the face again?
>>730984776Do you mean in english or japanese?Because if you mean english, I don't think you remember how bad the VAs were in 2.
>>730984812Devs dropped the ball when they didn't give her a rivalry with Mio.
>>730984857both, sounds like a raw nerve though, it really wasn't bait but that works.
>>730983728They are cute together.
>>730984963they WERE cute together until they went on and married different people
>buy the Pyra figurine>later on, mom sees it>"She's beautiful.">"Thanks mom :)">Later got the Nia figurine>"Oh she's pretty too.">":)">Eventually, I consider selling them>I mention this to my mom>"Wait, don't sell them. They look great.">"Yeah, but I've grown old of collecting.">"You can bring them downstairs on our collector's shelf."What do I do? The shelf has old Disney snow globes.
hum... hello Saomi...
>>730984963
>>730971871I was actually just thinking about how they fucked up the music in OriginThe actual track is used for a minute long cutscene and the track they use for the first half is just the basic version
>>730971871Has anyone tried the uncensor/de-localization mod for Xenoblade X DE on GBAtemp?I was thinking about replaying Xenoblade X and I wanted to try it, does it work well?

You should be able to solve this... right?
>>730985147
>>730985108Weird that I just started this quest like 15 minutes ago. Are we playing the same game?
>>730983728Maybe don't make them flatter characters in a flatter setting in a sequel that feels like it was a sequel out of obligation and not because it brought anything 1/2 actually needed post-conclusion.But y'know we've already been over why 3 fumbled creatively in hundreds of threads at this point. Everything in the character/world building aspect suffered for the core-concept they settled on to ram down the super blunt themes they wanted.3 wanted to be too many things and as a result it lacks identity. A game that is supposed to be about moving onward, is bogged down by so much "HOLY SHIT, DO YOU REMEMBER THIS OTHER GAME?!?!" because it also needs to be a sequel to two other games, as well as this big convergence point for pretty much everything else Xeno that Nintendo can legally use.
>>730985421Take your meds.
>>730977137Noah does, but Taion and Lanz don't, in fact Lanz has a very small ass.for how big and muscular his frame is.
>>730985059Don't sell your stuff. Even if you've outgrown collecting, it's a nice little trinket of the person you once were.
>>730984838It is heavily implied that they will all be vastly different people because the shit they did in Aionios was 100% Z's fault for creating a horrible world where people like Joran and Shabia couldn't just be the local Kenny Rohan and had to compete with people like Garvel and Ghondor.
>>7309728101, 2 and especially 3 looks and feels like ass now that switch 2 is powerful enough to render everything including their magic tweaks. Luckily at least X is spared from that.
>>730985559uh oh soggy socks!
>>730983728They're DLC characters with little characterization
>>730985648>It is heavily implied that they will all be vastly different peopleNo it fucking isn't. That's never implied anywhere in the game. You're just repeating shit that you've heard other retards say
>>7309848571, 3 and X all have some moments in which the acting is kinda mid but the big cutscenes have very good direction and acting and the shitty parts are mostly limited to sidequests.2's dub is terrible all the time, voices that don't match the characters, no lip syncing, strange inflections, emotionless readings and so on, which is particularly jarring in big scenes like when Rex is declaring that he wants to save Pyra and Mythra and screams "Join me!" and it just does not match what is happening on the screen.
>>730985559It sucks that Shulk feels so horrible to play. I'm not even sure what it is exactly he just felt so slow.Meanwhile Rex is one of the most fun characters ever
OI REX, LOOK WHAT YOU FOKIN DID! YOU BUGGERED ME FOKIN MINGE!
>>730985728The whole theme surrounding those characters is that the lack of choice drove them to being shitty, Noah says it all the fucking time while the game flashes their faces on the screen again and again.
>>730985886>The whole theme surrounding those characters is that the lack of choice drove them to being shittyThat doesn't mean every single person will be vastly different, retard.
>>7309857891's gem system has speed up buffs, load him up with speed gems.
>>730985930I'm talking about Shulk in FR
>>730985923Look at the idiot who didn't understand the whole nature vs nurture theme of the game.
>>730985886But wasn't Shania born into an abusive family? That's not going to change, only instead of having an out of becoming Mobius she'll probably just shoot herself
>>730985994Look at the idiot who thinks Lanz will suddenly become a scholar in the new world.
>
>>730985817Why couldn't Takahashi just send pyra and mythra to space and let Nia have the Rexbowl and not submit the shitshow he did.
>>730986173All these heroic figures who deserved a happy ending, earned their happy ending. Why are people still eternally seething over that?
>>730986173I'd be ok with them coming back but they really should've returned as Pneuma.That's who they really are after all, one singular perfected aegis, but instead they just stay as Addam's botched core-awakening and the crisis-mode tulpa.Maybe Takahasi just doesn't like Pneuma, she didn't even get official art until Smash after all.
>>730980937haha maybe in the next cycle. this world doesn't give you many choices.
>>730983728Mogged by their fathers. I wished to see more of Linka and Panacea over those two.
>>730984348I love this retard so much>>730980937I never got a cat girl gf that plays music so my life has remain unchanged since XBC3 came out

>>730977514Can't you either switch your system language or just make a japan region nintendo account real quick?
>>730986669You just wouldn't get it. When you do it right...
>>730985303Mostly yeah, its going to change all the names into Jap ones, the problem is that it only goes up to Chapter 10 and then you are back to the regular localization. Also only the main story quest. Bonding and side quest remain the same
YOLO - You Only Live Once ™https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5Otla5157c
>>730983630No Smash characters.
>>730987742They didn't get added to smash until 3 years after XC2's release retard.
>>730983630Because XC2 was one of the only games on the hugely successful Switch when it came out, so a bunch of normies bought it because there were few other options.By the time 3 came out, there was plenty of other games a normie could buy instead.
>>730987742I really don't want Noah or Noah+Mio added to the next Smash.Elma would be so much cooler
It's so funny that wild animals can become drivers. Imagine being a blade, a sentient being, and being enslaved to a fucking oversized grasshopper.
>>730987962I think a XC3 rep could be cool. Imagine they do something like Byleth where you can use everyone's abilities, and each skin is the main 6 plus N and M.In a perfect world we get a 3 AND an X rep tho.
Protect her smile /v/
Nia, Rex, and Tora
>>730987962Full Metal Jaguar Elma is my 'most wanted/not going to happen' for the next Smash game, not gonna lie. She'll obviously already have a good alt costume too. Never say never I guess.
>>730988193>>730979086
>>730988235I'd definitely say after X:DE, Elma has the best chance she's ever had.But considering a 3 rep is basically a lock, it's a question of them being based enough to give us two reps. If they stop jacking off 3rd party games so hard I think it's possible.
>>730979086Imagine her getting throat'd by big Y dick
I don't understand you nigs, why are you so obsessed with Shania? Is it because she is just fem-Hitler?
>>730988374Imagine using the bullet hole in her skull... fappybappy
>>730979086her hands are so small and weak
>>730988431She's a pretty hilarious and memorable character.
There are existing Nintendo IPs that need their smash representation revamped more than we need another Xenoblade character that’ll likely just be another “unga bunga swing weapon really hard in big hitbox” character like all of the new Fire Emblem and Xenoblade representation in Ultimate was.
>>730988431I want to bully her
>>730988431cutest xenotraitor
https://youtu.be/uG_bjgFui0g?si=LOdQvuMr3WYfflhJ
>>730988193Not my problem
>>730988431They're just contrarian retards.
I bet Shania has a strap-on (unused)
>>730988124>each skin is the main 6 plus N and MNot happening.
>>730988751I mean hey it worked for the koopalings
>>730988839>it worked for the koopalingsHighly fucking debatable
>>730988937"Worked" as in it happened and could happen again if they wanted. Especially considering they come from a game where they all can do the same abilities.I could care less if anyone liked it or not lel.
>>730988431twintails
>>730987332NTA, but no, 2 is specifically the only Xenoblade game on the Switch that follows the patterns of the previous Xenoblade games where it has regional builds. In 2's case, there's the western version with English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, and later Korean with the September 2020 update so that Koreans can play it after Xenoblade Definitive Edition was released with Korean built-in. This version only has English audio built in, and Japanese audio is free DLC. Also, the final cutscene with Pyra or Mythra has their mouth flaps match the Japanese expression はじめまして (Hajimemashite; Nice to meet you).The Japanese version of 2 supports Japanese, simplified Chinese, and traditional Chinese. It only has Japanese audio built in, there is no English audio DLC. The final cutscene has mouth movements for ただいま (Tadaima; I'm back).Xenoblade versions before this (1, 3D, X) had the Japanese with only Japanese text, a North American version with English, French, and Spanish, and a European version with English, French, Spanish, Italian, and German. All Japanese versions only featured Japanese audio, while NA/EU versions featured English, as well as Japanese for the Wii version of 1 specifically. 3D and X didn't get dual audio due to space concerns since they're the largest games on their respective platforms.I've read that the physical version of Torna is like the later games where it's one build with all the languages and audio, while the digital version is stuck with the limitations of being DLC, but I don't own it so I have no way to confirm it. I would really like it if a Switch 2 Edition actually added the material missing from both regions to truly make it definitive, because as it is, it's the only game in the series that can only be played in Japanese by importing.
>>730989286Huh, I knew about the audio stuff but I didn't know the text change was completely unavoidable without rebuying the game.
>>730988668https://youtu.be/1CTBuGCTXn0
>>730988668>>730989374The western xeno fanbase is so painfully unfunny.
>playing XB2 again>actually paying attention to mechanics this time>realize Pneuma how super fucking busted Pneuma is
>>730989360I started looking into the updates for each game and each regional version, and I came to an impasse at physical Torna because I can't find any explicit confirmation that it is or isn't regional. Because if it's identical across all regions, then that means that it got the September 2020 update for Korean even in Japan, but then that update would be completely undocumented even on Japanese websites.>>730989714Getting Pneuma feels amazing. Getting to the point where Pneuma feels weak compared to all your other options and builds because you can't raise her Trust above E without viewing her (empty) Affinity Chart and are locked onto her for a minute feels like an even bigger "Holy shit I've gotten so strong" moment.
>>730985789shulk feels very disjointed in FR, it doesn't help that bosses resist debuffs too much (target lock) and rex/matthew don't have any aggro down arts for some reason. Nikol is at least tanky as shit and can hard aggro with taunt.
>>730977514>>730989286So use the USA-to-JP mod. It adds Japanese to the Western version.
>>730989904I just read the datamines, it's available in English and Japanese so I can compare dialogue. I've personally datamined all the text from the later games as well for personal reference.X is too fucking hard for me to comfortably navigate and I need to Ctrl+F hundreds of text files in Notepad++ every time I speak to a new character so I can jisho something
>>730989476It's not even big enough where you can say it's the full fanbase. If (You) decided to put in effort and make something funnier you would basically become the fanbase for a month until the next person eventually makes something.Luckily that won't happen.
>>730989871It's a shame how bad debuffs are in 3 overall especially considering they made a whole class around them.
>>730989476Post your superior japanese humor then
>>730990018It's not just those 2 videos retard. You faggots are constantly reposting shit from the Xenoblade subreddit and it's always the most cringe shit.
>>730990014So stop being an EOP.
>>730988069I wish there were more rare Blades you got from defeating unique monsters, they make it sound like it's going to be a recurring thing after Wulfric and then it never happens again. Like what if Vale was the Blade of Vampire Bride Marion or something.
>>7309900362 classes. It's funny how busted buffers are in comparison. Debuff resist down should apply 100% of the time.
>>730989856I like JRPGs yet I've never seen the appeal in grinding characters to maximum stats and shit so I can beat the same superbosses I probably already defeated ages ago even harder.
nice
>>730984146>>Pyra's kid just gets shoved to the side in a DLC>he thinks glimmer is pyra's kid because she has red hair>forgetting the fact that pyra was literally born from mythra so they literally share DNA
>>730990225No the joke is obviously going to be that Pyra's kid is a bitch and Mythra's kid is an angel
>>730990118ゲームは日本語しかしないよSci-fi is just a bitch to read, I can deal with the numbered games a lot easier
>>730990193What class am I forgetting besides Segiri's?
>>730984146>>730990296Rex's family already got plenty of spotlight in XC3 and FR. They don't need to be center stage in XC4 again.
>>730988069For Wulfric it probably wasn't that bad since he can explicitly talk to animals, but I wonder if language is ever an issue for blades. Imagine if it happened the other way around, you go salvaging in Morytha or something and find a core crystal that predates the current human species, then it awakens into some anomalocaris looking thing that can only make clicks and screeches.
I'm really getting the impression I'm not supposed to be here without flight.I'm sorry for knocking the mech earlier it's saving my ass across this lava and all the level 50 enemies who aggro on sight but I still feel way in over my head
>>730990362>Malos is all but confirmed to play a major role in 4>Mythra's kid is still unaccounted forAdmit it, it would be pretty awesome for those two to be forced to work together
>>730990423Malos is effectively immortal. The game could be set thousands of years after Rex dies and Malos could still be around.
>>7309902042 fueled a completionism in me. I got every single Blade, maxed every single Affinity Chart, got every single Blade up to S+ Trust, maxed every weapon across every character, maxed out every pouch item, got 1 of every accessory at every rarity except for 3 at the highest tier of the effect (lots of Land of Challenge grinding) unless it was an accessory that could only be equipped by 1-2 characters (ie. Sword Attachment, female-only accessories, etc.) or all five (experience gaining accessories).Just felt like if I could do it, I'd do it. Have every single combination possible, with the ability to replay at any difficulty with any build.
>>730990375>he took the 'Chasing Hope' side missionYou can make it work but flight will make it all a lot more doable. You can take the ocean path around to the NW coast and find a warping there that has some stuff that isn't too highly level. That continent's basically the late/endgame area.
>>730990339I think he means Na'el in Future Redeemed
>>730990475I finished that up already, this is just pure greed for wanting to expand my mining empire. If I can just plop down some probes and maybe grab some high-level ones I'll be in a really good position moving forward
>>730990339Taion
>full Delocalization & Retranslation Patch>Reduced tedium modIts crazy how many problems with 2 are fixed by modders
>>730983728I like them both.They have good synergy and had interesting dilemmas to work through.Plus had good moments with their respective Fathers.
>>730990375Reminder that you can use auras outside of battle if you have enough TP. Shadowrunner (Elma has it alongside Blood Sacrifice for easy TP recharge) lets you avoid enemy aggro and Geolibrium (Doug has it) lets you swim through lava.
>>730985059Keep it.Your Mom clearly likes them anon. Be a good son to her.Parents rarely support this kinda shit these days.
>>730985303MURDERESS MY WIFE
>>730989856>because you can't raise her Trust above E without viewing her (empty) Affinity Chart and are locked onto her for a minute feels like an even bigger "Holy shit I've gotten so strong" moment.How the fuck haven't they fixed this shit by now?The fuck.
Spikes are bullshit and I hate them
>>730991052Wait Pneuma has an affinity chart? How do you access this, do you have to finish a battle with her activated and then go into the menu?
>>730990112Again, be the change you want to see in the world. It wouldn't be difficult considering the size.
>>730990112Alright here you go, a fresh funny on the house
>>730990375What was the point of this mission being so early in the game again?
>>730991675It's weird too because everything else gates any mention of Mimiesome off until after that gets revealed, but you can get spoiled on the fact that everyone's inhuman really early in. I'm glad I didn't start that quest earlier for many reasons
https://youtu.be/TcUhGTAJAy8?si=MhkYIBhBRrbJzPd4
>>730991218IIRC there's a glitch you can trigger by dying in the final Jin and Malos fight when you're forced to use Pneuma and are invincible that spawns you outside the fight with Pneuma, and it's the only way to look at her affinity chart.
We should have the next heroine be a shortstack with huge tits and no ass
>>730992872This but she's a loli with no tits or ass

>>730993485Switch 2 Edition or Switch 2 Definitive Edition?For the sake of discussion, let's assume the former comes much earlier (sometime this year) but is less of a full fledged remake, but comes with its own new features/content, smooths out the graphics resolution and some other QOL stuff. DE is like a full on remake though and it alters the game in more significant ways like with changes to the gacha system, streamline skill charts and things of that nature. Maybe add more new quests and unique blades, more substantial additional content. This comes out the end of next year.
>>730975332IMAGINE being the one to knock her up at 16 and conceive Ghondor.To think Noah and Mio's gene pool led to such finery, godDAMN.
>>730987385When you do it right...people cry about it for decades and then you write it out of the reboot later down the line?
>>730993485Why does the sword of god look like this?

>>730988208
>>730993485Nah let Takahashi and Monolith cook something new, already played and finished the blade saga already and i don't plan to return to it anytime soon. Looking forward to XenoCore series or whatever it is called, Zelda spin-off or a Saga remaster instead.
>>730997014>zelda spinoffAs someone who likes Zelda games and loves Monolith Soft, the idea of them spending years to develop another Zelda is disheartening. I'm sure it'd be an interesting game, but at the same time I'm not sure if that's what's best for the series or even what's best for Monolith. I'd rather see them expand on Xeno games or just make a new IP entirely. I know they have like three separate teams now and already helped with Mario Kart World and no doubt will be working on the next big Zelda, but sometimes I wish they could just focus all that into one huge monolith project rather than being spread in three separate directions. I suppose you don't need the full brunt of the studio on one project.

>>730997217genuinely retarded take seeing as how there's very little porn outside of pyra/mythra slop
>>730985059If you're unsure just keep it because you might wanna have it back at some point or just wanna go back into Collecting. Speaking from experience here.>>730997101They have been working on Nintendo series long enough to know what they are doing and i'm pretty sure they wanna try something new at that point and not just be that "Xeno"developper". Anyway i'm interested to see them having their go at something different for once and i don't see it having any big impact on the development of new Xeno titles but i can't be certain of that, only time will tell. It will be interesting to see the mainstream reception and reaction if the Zelda title is confirmed that's for sure.
>>730990867>sorry no. words words words i love peace words words wordsi do not fight>gunshot>AEEEEIIIIII IM SORRY ILL DO WHAT YOU WANT PLEASE DONT HURT ME
>>7309767601 > 2 > X > 3I struggled to complete 3 which was a shame because I love the rest of the series. At least Future Redeemed was pretty good.
>>730998803Same. But I'm trying 3 again. It's one of those things where I'm wondering if it was just Xenoblade burn out that made me not enjoy it
>>730982962Crazy how nips went crazy over this pairingI'm not complaining I Taion was probably my favourite character he earned it
>>7309767601 > 3 > X(definitive edition) > 2Anyone who disagrees is nothing but a filthy coomer
>>731000747It's definitely worth a replay imo. Everyone is going to have a different experience, but each time I replay these games I'm able to appreciate something different about them. I don't really replay other games to the same extent. I know it can be easy to burn yourself out on so it's good to take breaks in between journeys and play other games. But come back with a fresh set of eyes and you'd be surprised. I'm not going to do any more replays until they give us the fucking patches though. I emulated 3 at 60 fps and non jagged textures and even that change alone makes the difference. The graphical quality is holding the game back, but unfortunately 3's more lacking environmental design can't be fixed with a simple resolution boost. That's one of the games weak points, but the other strong points it has going for it counters out the weaknesses in my opinion. Just doesn't quite hit the same highs in some ways. In other ways I do feel like at least it got me invested in the character's struggles to the point where I was crying like a bitch. Rare games can get a reaction out of me like that, even other Xeno games.
>>731000974Until X2/XB4 comes out these threads will be filled with discord troons shitting on 3. There's no point in arguing.
>>7310009452 is a great game, you don't have to be a coomer to enjoy it. Every single Xeno game has coomer fan service, but 2's world, characters, battle system, music and story do more than enough to balance out even the more jarring fanserviceLike I don't goon to Xenoblade 2, or its characters. I think it's genuinely one of the best games ever made despite its shortcomings
>>730972810Get mad, for all the good it'll do you.
>>731001113I actually love all the games, but I put 2 at dead last because the development was obviously severly gimped because of BotW. A large portion of the cutscenes look pretty bad, the QoL at release was awful, stupid skill checks, the list goes on. It's still a great game, but if it had been made with the polish of 3 I'd argue that it might be the best one
>>731001702>A large portion of the cutscenes look pretty bad,The choreography was a huge step-up from XB1 and XBX. Look at the "cutscenes" for modern Pokemon to see just how far behind some devs still are. Now 3's cutscenes were fucking amazing, as were the facial expressions. But 2 was a big step forward. Without that experience, 3 wouldn't have made the steps it made. There are many aspects about 2 that are just stronger than 3 even with the game being rough around the edges. When the game gets a patch/definitive edition, people are going to warm up to it especially if they add QOL changes as they tend to do with their DEs. While I agree the game was in a very bad state at launch, they cleaned it up and at its core, despite being made by Monolith's B team, it's still one of the best games ever made.
>>730972810next direct trust the plant. takahashi told me in a dream
I have only played the first Xenobladebut I loved itI don't have the consoles for the other games
>>731002115You can get an used Switch 1 for very cheap, then you have the entire series available there.You could also emulate.
>>731002173I am too broke and lazy to do any of those things, but thank you
>>730979839>>730979939This feels like a false narrative that's pushed by people who just blindly parrot speedrunners.When I played the game, the skells were FAR stronger than ground combat, even when I was using proper Overdrive builds. You really need endgame level equips and grinding to make ground combat shine, and skells just vomit damage for free, in comparison. They also have way better access to AOE nukes, so a lot of fights end quicker because you're not focusing on single targets at a time.
>>730984224>>730984317>>730984812Kill it with fire. It's not outrageous that everything that was copypasted into XC3 from other games is a watered-down ersatz pale imitation of the original, and the fact that they couldn't even get New Poppi right speaks volumes.
>>731002462still a better game tho
>>730988431I wouldn't mind Shania being the next door girl of my neighbourhood.
>>731001970The choregraphy was great during important scenes that I agree (though It's not fair comparing it to XCX since that game barely had any real cutscenes at all until DE), but outside of that, it's in my opinion a rather huge stepdown from 1 that only sort of recovered in 3. It's not always about fighting sequences. Cutscenes that just boil down to motion capture all look pretty damn bad in 2 (see how the >japanese humor meme that is still posted on here persists a decade later)In XB1 there were no motion capture whatsoever, and everything was actually animated by hand. Though the animation may be simple at times, it was also full of personnality because it was done manually. XB3 blurred the line between real cutscenes and simple ones and it worked amazing though obviously that game came out later so it's not a fair comparison but my point is that because the presentation most often than not looked pretty rough, everything the game set out to do was brought down by its limitations (this applies to X as well). Which is why I couldn't enjoy 2 more than the other ones.

>>731004606A great game. Still my favourite.Keep in mind however that despite it being remastered and HD, it's still a WII game.
>>730989286The spoken japanese dialogue for that ctuscene is the same, despite the different mouth flaps?
>>7309962792DE isn't happening retard.
>>731001095discord troons are shitting on 2. Kys
>>731001095Honestly, I dunno why they do this. At this point, they've been doing this for so long.
>>731008567They've been shitting on 2 for even longer, retard.
>>731007570There is no spoken dialogue, it's the final scene in the game. The camera zooms in to Pyra's/Mythra's mouth (the name you chose in chapter 8) and they say something, but nothing is heard. Rex looks, and walks towards them, but what they said is meant to be ambiguous.Datamining shows that the line is either>はじめまして (Hajimemashite; Nice to meet you), localized as the unseen "Hello, I'm Pyra/Mythra."or>ただいま (Tadaima; I'm back/home), localized as "Hello, Rex."The mouth flaps vary whether you're playing the Japanese version or the western version, they're the only cutscenes that do. The western version implies they've lost all their memories like a typical Blade after being summoned from their Core Crystal, and that they're starting from (not quite) zero, which is bittersweet since it's like losing them, but they don't have to live with their painful memories anymore, and they at least retain a lot of their feelings since it's not like their Core Crystal was ever cleansed by Amalthus, much like how Roc occasionally sounds like Vandham or Vess vaguely remembers her old home. In the Japanese version, the line implies that they do remember everything and returned without any issue.
>>731001113Agree with everything but the story, the story is genuinely the worst of the series. Every character exists solely to prop up Rex, though Nia at least has an arc. Wouldnt be bad if Rex wasnt so boring himself. All the story has going for it is the chapter 10 revelation.
>>731009573>the story is genuinely the worst of the series. But enough about 3. Where every other character just exists to prop up Noah and Mio. To the point where the ending is just the entire party standing around staring at Noah and Mio while they make out.
>>731009573Rex is literally written to be the messiah/savior/Jesus figure and the rest of his party serve as his apostles/followers. It's a coming of age story for him, and he's clearly inexperienced and will get chastised, but everyone acknowledges him as the Driver of the Aegis and follows him because they know he will be a major figure that will change the world.
>>730972810I'd actually pay for XB2,XB3 and XBCX updates.
>>730984348
>Transformable mechas>Super robots>UltramenWe only needs cyborgs and power armors and we have the toku bingo.
>>730971871New game in the Direct plz
So the skells are mechas built with ordinary matter and using the Ares Prime as a model,yes?
Do you think we’ll ever get switch 2 updates for any of the games
After 2’s bad tutorials and 3’s extreme overcorrection and forced tutorials, X DE finally struck the perfect balance of good but unobtrusive tutorials that can be disabled + an ingame DPS sim, I hope this is the norm from now instead of more overcorrections
How do I get into Xenoblade X?I've restarted a few times now focusing on different classes each time but combat is so boring, slow, and easy.What is with these 30 second CDs? And why do they add another 30 second CD to make it stronger?Hey want to attack? Well wait 4 years and you might get to use a skill.
>>731004606If you're like me and have completion autism, sidequest hell, running around Alcamoth and Frontier Village for days on ends.Also a great offline MMO experience.
>>731015160Using quick cooldown helps speed up battles in the earlygame, and unlocking overdrive after Ch 5 significantly changes things
>>730995981Ontos itself is genderless as I recall is the most powerful aegis, having the abilities of the other two, and it acts on behalf of the will of pneuma (female) and logos (male). So it makes sense it adopts both, especially when ontos is God in the holy trinity so it trans(cends) the whole biological sec and gender debate. All of Ontos avatars also don't seem to really portray themselves as having personalities that are feminine nor masculine as theyre always very stoic and act logicically.
>>731013989Do Mims count as cyborgs? What about Machina mutts like Lanz?
So what’s the over/under on the mystery project Procyon/Mitsuda project being a new Xeno game?
>>731015602I was thinking something like Kamen Rider.
How’s my Xenoblade cred? What do you bros think? Am I qualified enough to talk about the whole series?
>>731016174You are alright?
>>731000876No anon you can't say that Taion doesn't have skin whiter than a marshmallow so Xenoblade 3 is woke propaganda DEI slop.
>>731016174You’ve played more than 95% of the people who post in these threads
>>731016259>>731016371Didn’t include it but my physical Torna appears in my 2021 stats too, and expansion pass Torna is part of my XC2 playtime so I’d guess that I have at least 130 hours across both versions of Torna Oh and ofc this page doesn’t show my 3DS XC1 and Wii U X stats but I definitely had at least 100+ hours in both back in the day
>>731016174>xenoblade x is almost 400 hoursbasedluv me skellssimple as
>>731016784I’ve always thought X is still by far the most fun XC to just play! Running around Mira and seeing the sights doesn’t get old, the movement and sprinting is the most fun in the series, and it’s fun tearing apart stuff with overdrive ether longsword builds or blasting something with a superweapon
>>731016174I'm guessing you've beaten each game 3 to 4 times or 'speedrun' the games?
Best Xenoblade for atmosphere: 1Best Xenoblade for music : TornaBest Xenoblade for combat : 2Best Xenoblade for party customization: 3 Best Xenoblade for exploration : XBest Xenoblade for cute bird girls : 3These are all objectively correct.
>>730972810Guaranteed to be announced at the next direct, hold out a little longer.
.
>>731017095I’ve done NG+ runs of 1 and 2, NG+ of both DLC Torna and physical Torna, i don’t remember if I did 3 NG+ because it doesn’t really have much, and basically just taking my time with X….although part of that playtime also came from grinding weapons and spending lots of hours inside the Pharsis rape sphere to get this
>>731016547Can you confirm if physical Torna is playable in Japanese by changing your system language?>>730989286
>>731017316Nah
>>731017316Lol fucking no, why do you think that only the catgirls managed to reproduce?
>>730971871I'm still baffled why the radio scene was not in the base game for 3. That's like having the low orbit station and architect scenes be in Torna instead of 2.
Where is Monolith's next game?February reveal for this year or next year?
>>731017316Correct
>>731017792Pandoria, Pyra, Mythra and Sharla aren't catgirls retard.
>>731013216>The 2 muacleheads and the only ones that did end up as a couple are the best characters of the game. Ffs
>>731017316this anon fucks
>>731017898>PandoriaWhat? also Im strictly referring to the image not the overall cast
>>731017845Probably February direct. Question is, is it Xenoblade 4 or a new IP?
>>731018065>>Pandoria>What?The hell you mean "what?" Stupid secondary retard
>>731017316>>731018060Tits > pussy. Now we just need a donkeygirl xenoblade character so we can have ass to complete the holy trinity.
>>731017841Because its irrelevant to the story.
>>731018090What would XB4 even be about? Is either X2 or a new IP, or maybe now that the Faggot Harada is out of Bamco qnd PlayStation is irrelevant in Japan maybe they will let them touch Xenosaga
>>731018182Who's Pandoria's child?
Do you think Melia and Eunie's wings flap wildly as they orgasm?
>>731017595>Can you confirm if physical Torna is playable in Japanese by changing your system language?Here you go, using a Rev 003 NA cart for XC2 and a Rev 001 EU cart for Torna; upon switching to JP language the icon and name of Torna changes to the JP versions but XC2 stays in English. Also compare the Pokemon SV and Tsukihime icons also changing languagePlaying Torna itself after changing the system language to JP, the ingame language does indeed auto change to JP after I switched to JP setting
>>731018264The White Whale immigrating to the new universe.
>>731018090The fantasy game that they started hiring for after XB2
>>731017595Oh right I forgot, here is what the icons on the switch home menu look like after changing back to English so you can see the difference with the SV, Tsukihime and Torna icons
>>730983420Do you think Nia, Pyra and Mithra had sloppy lesbian threesomes whenever Rex wasn't around?
>>731018219It pretty much confirmed Xenoblade's possible connection to Xenosaga so no it was pretty important.
>>731018514Funny how Atlus and now possibly Monolith are making fantasy games after avoiding the genre for so long.
>>731018738There are factually zero modern fantasy jrpg franchises right now.
Post Sena's ass.
>>731018804All I can think of are Dragon Quest, Metaphor, Etrian and Octopath a far cry from the 90s and 00s to an extent.
>>731018349Do you think Colonel Sanders would cut off their head wings, make them into chicken wings using the real 11 Herbs and Spices recipie to make them the best damn wings as possible, and force them to eat their own wings with bandages still on their heads as they lament on what their forced to do but what's even worse is the wings was thr most delicious thing they ever ate and really want to eat more. After they are it all sanders asks them their honest thoughts on the matter and bawling with tears theyre force to tell the truth that it was finger licking good.

>>731018873She constantly uses hemroid cream though since her pussy always feels like its on fire.
>>731017595And also here; opening Torna on JP system language versus opening it on English to show that the language does change automatically for Torna
>>730983728My favorite crack ship is Nikol x Melia.Melia couldn't have Shulk but Nikol is the next best thing. Maybe they meet when Nikol wants to help out his father's friend and one thing leads to another
>>731018921Dragon Quest hasn't had a new mainline game in like 8 years. Metaphor is one game, not a franchise. Etrian also gets no new games.I did forget about Octopath.
>>730985338It's 0 when it's me dealing dmg and it's 100% when it's dealt to me next.
>>730985789Genuinely will never understand how 2tards say 3 was a course correct from 2 considering there are constant references to 2 and Rex was clearly favored over Shulk.
Do you own the trinity box?
>>731018392>>731018540>>731019014Thanks very much anon, that answers a question I've had for a while. That should also mean that the Japanese standalone game got the September 2020 update that gave it Korean language support, but it is completely undocumented anywhere, even on Nintendo's Japanese website which only lists up to the previous update.There's a very low chance that the Japanese release of the standalone game is more limited, but I know someone with it so I'll pester him to confirm if he can play it in languages other than Japanese/traditional Chinese/simplified Chinese.I lived in Japan for a bit and nearly bought Torna physically there while shopping. I had no idea I couldn't play the DLC version in Japanese, and had I known, I would have just bought it
>>731019295Yeah but one of the corners got scuffed in shipping. Still salty about that, but it's easy to mask (I keep all of my art books on a book shelf in a different room)
>>730983728Kid characters have to compete with their cooler parentsNikol is also a useless turd only good for being the last to get targeted and die, so he can be the designated revive/chain order bitch
>>731018581Xde already clarified what it was. Also Xenosaga is not happening.
>>731019628There were hints yes but FR namedrops Dimitri Yuriev and Vector Industries.
>>731019824Yeah but considering this Yuriev got kaboom...
>>731019628I hope monolithsoft through nintendo acquired xenosaga from Bamco
>>731019394I actually like Torna enough that I got both an EU and NA physical of it with working codes lolAbout you getting a JP physical, is it important that the JP DLC code with it works? I’m not sure if the used game store copies would have working and unredeemed DLC codes….and I also don’t remember seeing any copies of physical Torna in the Book Offs and Surugaya and Madarakes etc I’ve visited on my trips
Does an ai att program do Ga Buidhe lewds well?

>>731020664Does Melia have bigger boob than eunie? Just how much did she grow since FC?
>>730984224Literally all they had to do was not give her a giraffe neck and we could've had another cute robot in the series
>>731020009I was at Bic Camera in Ikebukuro at the time, looking for the physical standard edition OST for 2, and the employee found the game first. I'm fairly sure Bic Camera doesn't sell secondhand copies of games, so now I regret not buying it when she was showing it to me. I did get the OST though, and then almost immediately after they announced the limited edition series OST box set by Procyon and I ended up buying that too.
