Why is there absolutely no hype for the new Xenoblade game?
Like, there's so little hype that you could say there is negative hype.
>>
>>740772836
It’s almost like it doesn’t look very good
>>
it doesn't look like xenoblade much
and like yeah sure we know there's going to be a twist but the trailer just didn't sell it
also I do not own a Switch 2, and will not buy a Switch 2 to play it
>>
The previous game disappointed a lot of people.
>>
>>740772836
>female protag
>more female warriors than male
>brown male twink love interest
>school setting
>absolutely no fanservice whatsoever

Pick any of these. They could have just slapped a massive 'NOT FOR MEN' sign on the trailer instead.
>>
>>740772836
This is a bot engagement thread but I'll say my piece anyway.
It doesn't share the same aesthetics as older xenoblade games, the trailer doesn't say much and there's no gameplay yet. Regardless of how it turned out, it's not a very exciting trailer.
Personally I'm still mad they destroyed mira despite the premise of the game being building a second homeland for humanity, so I don't trust them with this.
>>
I don't have the Switch 2
>>
>>740772836
I thought it was Fire Emblem at first, which is a very big red flag. I'm just waiting for more information and not really caring about it until then.

>No red sword in the trailer

Like, what the hell. And yet I KNOW those elements will appear at some point. But at least put an iconic red sword in the trailer for fucks sake, what the hell were they thinking.

Everyone figured out the story already

Because it's a new Xenoblade game

The only other noteworthy thing announced was the OOT remake, imagine buying a Switch 2 and not caring about Xenoblade, you have literally nothing to look forward to.

The others might be red but only the monado is iconic.

The Duskbloods

>>740773562
It’ll heavily backfire since women are the masters of performative consumption.
Most of them will just watch a cutscene compilation on Youtube and say they’ve played the game.
Traditionally male-centric series seemingly having a large female fanbase is massively exaggerated by a vocal minority on social media.

Some "Xenoblade fans" can never shake the allegations that they're just a bunch of Xenoblade 2 tourists.
>>
There have been way too many Xenoblade games lately, even the DLCs are games of their own, and I am saying it as a big fanboy. Could have easily just skipped this gen, especially since they are updating the other games and if you replay them you are in for like 500+ hours. People don't like wasting their life in one series and only that one except for World of Warcraft fans

Xenoblade 2 was a mistake.
>>
>>740774840
The only reason you play xenoblade is to look at the creative and ambitious environments. xenoblade 1 was a 7/10 offline mmo with endless awful fetch quests, the same auto attack combat and tropey characters but it gets a Nintendo bonus for being the only serious jrpg on the Wii. This game has bland environments outside the hollow planet skybox so it looks like there's absolutely no reason to play it.

XB2, and the insufferable garbage of coomers it cultivated, did irreparable damage to the series' reputation, and killed the it, unironically.

Yes, XB2 sold less than ARMS. Its "succsess" was not worth poisoning the well.

The rest of the game is literally non-stop kino, also by chapter 5 you should have enough rare Blades with grids full enough that you can ignore the gacha forever

When I saw the trailers for Xenoblade 2 I was immediately compelled to buy a Switch to play it. Judging from this trailer, I'm still not buying a Swtich 2.
>>
>>740775092
>It also had an amazing storyline
Its the literal basic bitch jrpg fight god meme with endless anime trope filler leading up to it. I've always thought it was weird that jrpg fans confuse quantity for quality, they spend so much time in these mediocre stories they get emotionally attached and think they are actually well written. The OST was also just alright, XB2/torna had much better music.

I regret my time spent with xenoblade, that doesn't happen that often when playing games. I just forced myself to complete them against my better judgement because i wanted to see how crazy the next environment would be.

Definitely got that feeling, I kind of hope that that is dropped fast like in Xenoblade 3, and I seriously hope they get new outfits fast too.
The best looking thing in this game is that it looks like the world is back to being one location like in Xenoblade X while also looking to be a whole traditional golden age JRPG world in an open world.

The upscaler in Xenoblade DE is much better than the one in X, but is this Monolith Soft's own inhouse AI based upscaler, because that's kind of crazy if they really have been building and training their own one inhouse, it definitely has a long way to go but it runs at 60fps, which is really good, I hope it uses the Switch 2's AI cores and not compute resources.

Xenoblade 3 took 50 hours before the combat system "got good", the character designs were boring, and the game's ending was a kick in the balls.

This looks more like another Harry Potter knockoff than a Xenoblade game and I'm sick of anime kids in uniforms.

as a newcomer to the series with Chronicles X, i was disappointed to find that the other games all had this ungrounded Fantasy anime look to them, which is really unappealing. I could be wrong though since i haven't played them, but others that have agree with me.

No, it was the fifth most watched trailer out of everything yesterday and beat out Pokopia and Splatoon. Basically everyone outside of one extremely indian sharty discord server is really excited.
>>
>>740777543
Best looking so you want to know how the story unfolds? Are you a bot?
>>
>>740777343
Xenoblade is basically the same level of octopath. Nintendo lets them make what they want and monolith uses that to train developers who then work on bigger Nintendo games like botw only existing because monolith managed to make xenoblade x.

>>740775787
When I used to care about nintendo i stopped taking it personally because i realised i just wasn't the target audience anymore, its never been more obvious that gamecube era and prior Nintendo fans just aren't important to their future. Pokémon was the blueprint for the entire company, never age with your fans and your brand will last forever, push the target younger and you can thrive even on subpar shitty products.

What are you talking about. 1 was alright at best. X was trash. It felt like a fucking checkbox simulator and not a game.

Absolutely none of that leaks lines up with what we know, except the FeMC character design is similar. That's it.
>>
>>740779403
The tanned guy is obviously the main hero, but I don't think the game is going to bait and switch with its protagonist. The leak had some things correct, but it seems mostly wrong and was possibly based on a earlier draft of the story. The only real take-away from the leak is that their designs were close to the leak, the man is the main hero and the girl is the main heroine and they have some kind of power they can only use together.

The fact that the game will turn into a trek across their entire world already means that the school setting will likely be thrown out after Act 1.

If they manage to make it more serious I might give a shit to the story.
Almost done with x btw, what a slog of a story

the characters look generic and the school setting is the definition of generic
xenoblade also always focus on how weird the world is (titans, cloud sea, worlds collided). The dyson sphere is pretty cool but It's barely noticeable.
I don't care about mecha but they really should have showed some robots because it is impossible to tell it was a Xeno game until the title dropped

It's like they've never watched an anime, played a jrpg, or hell engaged with any fantasy story ever. School's getting massacred by chapter 1's end at the latest leading the protag on a globe trotting journey as is the norm for xenoblade.
Fuck at this point the twist would be not dropping the school in the first nanosecond and actually building it into the plot and globe trotting, but that'll limit the writing ability so no chance it goes that route.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was a complete anomaly. Its popularity came from a mix of the right circumstances.
>Released right at the peak of Japan's love for Gacha. Granblue is 3 years old and Fate/Grand Order is 2 years old. RPG's where you roll for hot chicks are thriving in Japan
>Launch title for Nintendo's new comeback machine after the WiiU
>Released right as the internet social media culture war was kicking off. Game got lots of attention for being seen as one side of the conflict.

Even if XBC3 was as boobylicious as 2, it probably still would've capped out where it did. The Japanese audience that was there in 2017 has almost entirely moved onto Chinese F2P gacha games and nothing is getting them back. The culture war is still around but has largely died down as different subgroups retreat into their specific silos. Twitter charging for use of the API probably didn't help either as that was an easy way to share clips of the game.

Well recommended it anyway, and yeah the reason people like 2 and people flock to gachas even though they hate how predatory it is is because they have nothing else. No one else in the industry is really pandering to them. And gachas often have shitty gameplay while these players also like to explore and get immersed into the world, and care about the story and characters in addition to the fanservice. So if you think about it XB2 is a once in a lifetime kind of game, it’s no wonder they get defensive and grow attached to it.

It's Kosmos returning to Lost Jerusalem. The significance of the scene is that it book ends the missing Earth plot at the heart of these games. It wasn't meant to be a sequel bait.

The sequel bait is the Ark Ships leaving Earth, as our game takes place inside a space colony

We are just early in the console's life and the install base is still small. This is essentially the low point for the switch 2's software sales. I will say though I do expect Nintendo's first party software sales to drop in general due to the massive third party support, which the switch 1 didn't have. Some people will buy Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts instead of Xenoblade.

If the third party effect hits first party sales enough, we may eventually see Nintendo simply drop some of their smaller series.

2 is shit. The writing is terrible and the gameplay is mediocre at best.

>>740782232
>Well recommended it anyway
BrownDust 2, it's a turn-based JRPG with a PC client, very generous as far as gacha games go, has extremely lewd cutscenes and a side mode that let you date a lot of the waifus that you pull.
>So if you think about it XB2 is a once in a lifetime kind of game, it’s no wonder they get defensive and grow attached to it.
Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I totally understand why they would get specifically attached to 2, it's a very unique niche that it fills. But I also feel that way about the other Xenoblade games too, especially X. Each game has their own selling points that are defined by what the creators at Monolith want to do at the moment, and that's spontaneity is what made me attached to the Xeno series in the first place. I'd be totally fine with playing another fanservice-heavy game as long as they're doing that because they want to, and not because they're chasing money.

I never expected them to go full stylized realism like FF because that would have been repeating Saga 2's mistake in a way and would further push the series away from having a single unified artstyle. However, I also didn't expect them to just do XB3 again but crisper and with even better models. I particularly like how "classic anime" Eleanor's face looked a few times in the trailer.

Damn, didn't know that Pyra is hated by Takahashi because she became more popular than Mythra

That's not what POV is, not even in a storytelling sense.
The player has an outside perspective that mostly follows the protagonist.

Xenoblade is insanely boring.

I wonder if they're going to touch the newly-fused Earth at some point, because ngl I am curious with what happen to Trinity Processors & Origin

True!

I don't give a shit about this series but I bought Xenoblade 2 solely because I love Lyra and Mythra and wanted to play their game. It's kinda okay. Pretty boring.

Boogles my mind why they never made anything more with those 2 waifus or even make better waifus?

This franchise is garbage that just had one decent game with 2 amazing women. That's it.

Fuck off already.

Female protagonist is the kiss of death for jrpgs. Just like when FF13 came out. I'm sure some smart ass will reply to me and say but muh FF6, but that had an ensemble cast like Lord of the Rings and the devs themselves said theres no main character
>>
>>740784864
I am so, so happy that you and all the other retards aren't getting what you spent the last 4 years begging for.
>>
>>740784823
nta but 2 really was that bad huh? drove away all the people trying out the series
>>
>>740784910
FF6 is like this because it's a scrapped SAGA entry
>>
>>740784767
I don't know how sakurai has remained such a gem for all this time.
The guy is genuinely charsmatic
>>
>>740785008
Some people are just naturally charismatic I guess.

>>740772836
Another entry with 0 fanart that will be instantly forgotten just like 3.

Unironically the problem for me. I loved X so I bought 2. I hated it so I skipped 3. I'd like to try this one though because of all the elves.

I'm pretty sure that was more due to Lightning being an acidic turbocunt tbhdesu

Yep. They're literally pol incels spamming that garbage game here for a decade. They don't like this series. They're secondaries who only care about muh le coom designs btfo woke. They're the same fags shilling Stellar Blade here and worship Asmonmould

Yes yes meds schizo etc the same shit for a decade. You don't like this series. You like coomshit designs. Fuck off back to your trooncord and go jerk off with the other trannies using Pyra

He's even funnier if you know Japanese, he makes a very subtle oppai pun when he asks who the audience would prefer

bro writes some schizo post about stellar blade and his favorite youtuber then tells other people to take meds

it's funny how retarded you women-hating chuds are lol. JRPGs have been a women genre for a fucklong time. this xenoblade does the only right thing in pandering to their actual demographic. the utena-like femprotag looks gorgeous and the shoujo art style is filled to the brim with charme. femchads eating good with this one, fucking finally. I was so fucking fed up having to play as an ugly and stinky 14 year old boy
