Now that the initial hype has died down, are we still looking forward to Genesis?
>>
>>742248769
Of course, there hasn't been a bad xenoblade game, I trust that streak to continue.

I'm also waiting for the false flags posts in this thread to try to demoralize hype and interest.

Maybe by 2030, once it has DLCs, patches, mods to fix the trannyslation and emulator.

The idea is that you're a normal person and know Japanese.

Hearing one name and reading completely unrelated one is annoying as fuck. No, I'm not learning 2k kanji to read in japanese.
>>
>>742248769
Of course. I'm really curious about where the franchise is going and if it's going to be a retelling of Xenogears/Perfect Works or just merely referencing things. I can't imagine the dyson sphere being like the planet in Xenogears. It would be cool if the Conduit/Zohar had more of a presence and weird stuff like the Wave Existence. Beyond that, the dyson sphere looks really cool and I love the worldbuilding in the series. Also I love sci-fi stories where people have forgotten advanced technology.
>>
I hope the next trailer is better, that teaser didn't leave a strong impression(also rip xgg again).
>>
>>742248769
What hype? This thing was stillborn the moment they revealed the setting was a wholesome chungus magic school
None of the trailer uploads have broken even half a million views
Also those characters are horrendous, even worse than 3, six boring teenagers again but this time, oh this time they are wearing shitty flat uniforms on top of that
Is anyone even drawing art of these losers? Even background nonames from fire emblem fortune's weave have more fanart than these shitters

>>742248769
If they have slutty outfits for the girls
>>
>>742253673
>the setting was a wholesome chungus magic school
It's pretty obviously a fake out if you know anything about the series. Something is going to happen to the school like it gets blown up or the teachers are actually evil and it forces them to go on an adventure and in the end they go wait a minute, we're on a fucking space ship.

It'll be a really fun game and hopefully you can change their outfits and some of them have huge tits. Sexy bodies are on the menu, there's that one chick in latex for like 2 seconds in the trailer.

>>742254538
I might agree it left a bad impression on people who don't know the series by playing it so straight, but that's marketing for you. Sometimes it's lost on your average person. Every game in the series started out with a "generic" premise before turning into something completely different by the end.
>>
>>742253673
Japanese games have always had a problem with generic, samey character designs but they're just gotten worse over the years. It seems like Japanese people literally only want to play as identical anime teenagers

>>742254538
Imagine if there was a Xenoblade that had a hub location as your main base, and each chapter was traveling to somewhere in the world for story stuff. But you’d return to the home base each time for updates.

No, it looks too much like Nu-Fire Emblem and the girls are too censored/covered up so they can be added to Smash Bros in the future, 80 dollars for base game plus 40 for the rest is too much as well
I would consider buying it if they add some coomer outfits as DLC tho, Xenoblade 1 and 3 had sexy outfits so you don't need to have them as the default one as long as you give the player the choice to use them if they want to, rather than excluding them entirely

It sold off of
1. The goodwill and impact of Xenoblade 1 (the first game was amazing so I will buy this sequel!)
2. Being THE big Christmas release at the height of the Switch 1's popularity coming right off the trail end of BotW release. Literally any game could have been in its release slot and done gangbusters

Shulk didn't get into smash until years after Xenoblade 1's release. The original Xenoblade 1 was never going to release in North America until Operation Rainfall made them release it. Basically Xenoblade 1 barely got any coverage or marketing outside of Japan

This is also why 1's dub is all bongs (which was a blessing in disguise because it's still one of the best dubs in existence). Funny how you let someone else dub a game other than the usual American z-listers and they come up with kino.

Exquisite seething just by posting the truth. Introducing the new game with a fucking school in a post-tree houses world has done permanent damage to the perception of this game, the trailer itself may not have gotten half a milliom views but there were 4 million who watched the nintendo direct and decided they wanted nothing to do with xenoblade genesis afterwards. Takahashi got too cocky again and the game will be hurt by it

Thank Gamestop for having exclusive sale rights during 2011 and scaming customers.

Xeno2 was just about a launch title for the Switch, so it sold based on that fact, people who missed out on Xenoblade 1 got X2, and X2 was riding the hype from XX

but sadly, X1DE was not looked at the same because people either played 1 or didnt want another shit game like 2.

I will keep an eye on future info because I absolutely love the previous 4 Xenoblade games, but nothing in this trailer appealed to me and I'm hoping it was a bait and switch only showing the very, very early prologue section.

Broaden your tastes. Surely they are not this confined? Being so strictly against a medieval/high-fantasy coat of paint is so weird when 1 and 2 both explore fantasy themes and setting too.

How are people this closed off towards things when we know the rich exploration and Takahashi epic storytelling is still there.

I appreciate what you're saying, and I am only basing an opinion off of one single trailer after all.
My main issue is the apparent school setting, I can't stand that shit. If it's a major part of the game then I probably won't be able to look past it. Other issues that I may be able to look past with more info include the switch from clear shounen themes to a very obvious shoujo themed story and character design, and of course, no fanservice.
I don't necessarily mean Xenoblade 2 levels again, but absolutely no female characters in Genesis are showing any skin AT ALL. Not even thighs, which is usually the safe option for any modern game that's getting censored mid development like Nintendo games are now. I want to clarify I need more info from Genesis before I bash it completely, but I'm not feeling positive.

You're retarded and missed the point of XC3.

Yes, we know that Monolith doesn't like Melia very much. Just accept it and move on.

ESL gibberish but yes, people are coping when they say 2 only sold because of circumstance. It actually only sold about a million in its release year. It has almost tripled its launch sales since then.

I still have faith in Genesis because 2 also had a shitty underbaked reveal, maybe history will repeat.

>>

They aren't going to, and even if they did, they'd still treat Melia like trash. Literally every other character got a happy ending except for Melia

If this is the kind of immaturity we can expect from you them we'd rather you stay the fuck away from Xenoblade forever. You sound like an absolute childish retard.

IMO, 3 isn't good as its own story or as an ending to the Klaus saga. I can see what they're going for, they just didn't execute it well at all.

Fuck off you stupid cunt. If you're only here to moan about shit then fuck off. Trying growing a brain, too. You sound like you're having a tantrum over the setting of Genesis like an 8 year old. The game will be peak and you'll still be pissing and shitting your nappy just because you start the game in an academy schools.

The art style and the main theme completely kills my interest in this game. It looks like the blandest, most yawn inducing fantasy possible, like fire emblem expy set in a fucking academy of all things.

The linchpin on why Xeno doomerfags have been so fucking insufferable lately. Most of it's shitposting but these guys really will just look at certain elements they don't like and write off the entire game and future of the series based on a teaser trailer.
I can't possibly imagine what Xenofags would do if they got an actual modern bad game instead of something that doesn't confirm their headcanon or doesn't have any girls in hotpants.
>>
>>742270780
I wouldn't go that far as I enjoy all the xeno games, but Mitsuda is so overrated honestly. I wouldn't call it bland but Xeno can do better than using Mitsuda for a 4th time.
School settings are generic yeah, but military school less so. I get it though.
I don't think any of these reveal trailers have ever shown each games' true hook, though. It's only really X's reveal that was immediatly kino, to me at least.
And 2 is my favorite game overall, but it's first trailer SUCKS.

He's highly loved and valued among Xenoblade and Xeno fans. He's been with these games since the beginning and was pivotal in creating the "Xeno" soundscape beginning with the very first "Xeno" game, Xenogears. You don't know what you're talking about.

I ciriticized from day 1 how boring the characters looked in 3, how I didn't like that they were all teenagers, how I didn't like the over reliance on imagery from previous games, how the environments looked boring and dead as shit, how the combat would be a shitfest with 7 characters plus combining elements from 1 and 2 that were never meant to be together.
In the end all my negative hunches came true.

Now to be fair Genesis has some things going for it. For example there appear to be real towns and nations this time. And it looks like the villains aren't just the same shit character copypasted 20 times over.

It's easy to explain. It's soulful, loved and has good word of mouth. It keeps getting fan artbooks even to this day. There's a reason it's hard to find copies of the game on the second-hand market, at least at reasonable prices, and has been so since even before 2020. People like it and and keep it.
I'll keep my copy forever, and I'll even ask to be buried with it when I die.

Even if they do, they were test tube soldier people that only lived 10 years like the main characters so they had basically zero background. Making every charater having the same shitty background instead of coming from different paths in life is boring. Case in point: FFVIII

You're not ready to admit this, but other than the world that looks interesting and what we expect from a Xenoblade game, the trailer cruelly lacks in "Xenoblade" elements. Namely Nopons and le goofy-looking-important-anime-overdesigned-sword, or Tirkins, whatever.
Maybe for better or worse, I can understand moving away from things for new things. But then I'd rather just plan another jrpg altogether.
Yet I have no doubts we'll see these elements, even familiar enemies that gives Xenoblade its identity. And this is why they should have been present in the trailer.
>>
>>742283752
Bernal Sphere. Dyson Spheres are just a little bit bigger.
>>
>>742282989
It sounds like marketing (lies) because normalfags love school life games.
>>
>>742283874
In a dumb way it is more of a Dyson sphere because it’s encapsulating what the story is calling “stars.” So if it’s actually getting energy from those tiny pico stars, even just like photosynthesis and keeping water liquid, isn’t that already a Dyson sphere?
>>
Yeah, I don't think I want to play as a girl
>>
>>742283778
Because it's more Xeno as a whole instead of just Xenoblade.
There's no Nopons because we're getting the Chuchus instead. There's also the wolves and orcs from Gears and anima is a Xenosaga thing.
The swords aren't bullshit this time but they're still considered "important" in some way, that feels Xenoblade to me. And the most important part of blade is still here, running fast af across the open world
>>
>>742284121
No, it really is a matter of scale and structure. Dyson Spheres are so damn large that- short of an insane megastructure like The City from Blame!- they have to more or less be made of a swarm of radiation collecting panels; whereas the structure we've seen in XenoGen so far seems to be remarkably solid.

Dyson spheres only have to be so big because the stars they surround are big. If you could have tiny stars, which you can’t because physics is a gay jewish trick, you could have tiny Dyson spheres.

Dyson’s original (joke paper) proposal for spheres were also solid. Then the people who took him seriously (jokes themselves) came up with the swarm idea to make is very slightly less retarded.

>>742282852
I dont dislike the idea of harems, and they can be well done (Tenchi Muyo is one of my favorite anime, I think the problem with how it was handled in 2 is that it is an extreme tonal departure from the rest of the series. If it had been another series, or a spin off, it would have been fine. But it was a direct numbered sequel to 1, which itself is a spiritual successor to Xenogears and Xenosaga. While it does live up to those in some aspects, the harem nature of it feels out of place. Thats just my opinion though.

2 itself wasn’t really harem. Let’s be honest, Nia wasn’t intended to actually win. I think it was really only afterwards that everyone, including the devs, ended up loving her so much that softened the blow with post-game patched and eventually 3 put her in the harem retroactively.

Currently at chapter 3, joined the wagieforce cause i was forced into accepting a job by a japanese politian, accepted a bunch of missions on the board.

The skills seme underwhelming, i cant equip my good gear since my level is too low, the warcry or shouout feature shits out a bunch of options and i have the feeling i will miss shit when i dont talk to everyone in the city.

First Xenogame btw, in it for the mecha.

>>742286193
Chapter 3 is still basically tutorial stage, the game will open up a lot after chap 4 or 5.
You'll get a lot more skill eventually although it's true they take a while to grind. You can change classes already by that point iirc so try other skill. It'll take you a while until you understand how the battle system work and what skills are best. You didn't even unlock 1/4 of the battle system yet

>>
>>742294071
explain why
>>
>>742295290
The more fleshed out a character is, the stronger the character. Xenoblade’s always found small ways to work more character stuff in. Like how the collectopedia in the first game isn’t just dry info, it often says which party member named it and why, giving you more ways to understand them. Or like how you can learn what their favorite foods are in 2 through game mechanics, like how Mythra has a sweet tooth she’s a little embarrassed about, so Pyra doesn’t. They’re just really good at giving characters quirks without beating you over the head with the fact that the character has this wacky trait. Like how other JRPGs will have a character where their entire personality gets swamped in the quirk of being a shitty cook. Noah’s shitty naming sense comes up a bunch of times in Xenoblade 3, but it’s a background quirk that the game doesn’t draw a ton of attention to. You can find the embarrassing chuuni name he gave his sword but there isn’t an over-the-top skit about it. It’s consistent, it adds to the characters, and it’s not annoying about it.

>>742288665
Only X is open world, and kinda built like one, it's also one of the best one, which is why Nintendo's Zelda team constantly has to go and cry to Monolith to help them make a good game.

About the corpo aspect, if that was true, this wouldn't be literally one of the the most censored series especially on lowcowlization.
I wonder how they got the ok for "Genesis".
I know this is just a shitpost but it never works because it's just so blatantly false.

Fire Emblem Three Houses is the best selling game of the franchise despite both looking and playing like shit, and a big part of that was because it was a "being popular in High School" simulator. Ditto for Persona.

And yes, I'm aware it'll have some kind of bullshit magitek sci-fi as the story progresses, but all it's going achieve is transforming the game in to a low budget Final Fantasy clone.

This is somewhat unrelated but I’ve been consuming the various Xenogears soundtracks and albums lately and Mitsuda’s work on Xenogears was incredible; why don’t Xeno fans talk more about that music?
