It's optional in a sidequest
Nobody is forcing you to sit through this
Although you aren't wrong in the fact that when you're playing through the main story and this shit shows up and clashes with the tone (i.e. the baka hentai scene that happens right after one of the most important parts of the game AND the death of a major character) it can put a damper on the experience.
Although this also is far from the best Blade Quest. That would be Wulfric.
And Adenine, but that's my personal opinion

I don’t think people would seethe about it if it’s fans just called it what it is: a pretty derivative JRPG with gacha elements thrown in for essentially no reason. This series has been riding the coattails of Xenogears for decades but maybe 5 people including me have played it on Yea Forums. So what’s left is underage autists unironically defending the integrity of gacha titty monsters in a full priced game.

By posting that, all you’ve proven was Xeno’s superiority to Persona.

It was better than Persona 5 or Divinity: Original Sin 2. Fight me.

I can only figure that its because the one girl is all into it but the other is embarrassed. You are supposed to feel embarrassment(and laugh) at the one who doesn't want to do the stupid jiggle dance. People cringe because they relate to somethings actions(Doing something stupid looking against your honest will in this example)

>noog skeeter
why does this make me want to play whatever shitty jrpg#10302 this is?

Why is everyone else obsessed with this game?

>critical reception
It did well enough in terms of critic reviews. Persona 5 is a pretty easy game, so reviewers are bound to like it more than Xenoblade 2. As far as user reviews are concerned, both Xenoblade 2 and Persona 5 are tied. Torna also reviewed well in both critic and user reviews.
>legacy
Xenoblade 2 sold more than 1.5 million units on a small install base that really isn’t known for supporting JRPGs, and its DLC sold very well. Xenoblade 2 sold better than DQXI in the West. Sure Persona 5 sold well, but you would think it sold FF or KH numbers due to all the free shilling it gets on social media.
>Popularity
Persona has one of the worst fanbases as far as JRPGs are concerned. Just look at pic related. Xeno is in a pretty comfortable and healthy spot with less cringy shit going on. Sure, it has waifufags, but the Persona fandom’s waifu-niggers are far worse.

Hello ACfag.

And P5 threads are mostly waifu shit much like the stuff you’ve mentioned in greentext. Waifufagging is a problem in every JRPG thread in Yea Forums, so I won’t act like it’s a problem exclusive to Persona and Xeno threads. Only thing that P5R has done is add consolewars to Persona threads and there are more vain SMTfags than usual.
Xeno 2’s combat gets faster early on if you movement cancel and consume food, but there’s no point in bothering with Xeno 2 if it’s putting you to sleep. Afterall, the combat, sidequests, and exploration is the meat of Xeno 2.

What's cringey about it though? The forced diversity?

I hated the gacha and the combat was really shitty, like why the fuck don't these super powerful Blades fight? All the main characters of the game are also fucking unbearable.
I bought the expansion pack and I'm glad I did because Torna was a ton fucking better and it's not even a "full game".

Yea Forums shitposting can't be completely representative of the entire fucking fanbase.

From my perspective on Yea Forums, Xenofags played the game, talked in threads for pretty much all of 2018 (legit threads that look nothing like the one we're in), finished the game and expansion, then conversation died down. Everyone is expecting some more Xeno stuff this E3.

What you're describing is just par for the course board culture. For some reason, folks who didn't like the game STILL can't get over the fact that they don't like the game and brainwash themselves into thinking any opposing viewpoints are just /vg/ crossposters. You dumb motherfuckers just need to sell you copy if you somehow haven't already and get over yourselves.

You mean 100 hours of dialogue boxes and hallways, with JRPG """""""""gameplay""""""""" sprinkled inbetween? That doesn't make it better.

You might as well say God of War is good because it has 60 hours of """"gameplay"""" in it.

How about any time there exists a Xenoblade thread? When was the last one that was filled with sensible people who could actually take criticism without crying about "muh snoyggers" or spamming porn? Usually the latter is a result of the former, as an attempt to "drown out the snoys".

Damn you really think Xenoblade is that bad?

Because is made by monolith soft. They are artists, not like Square Enix

Yes, and FFVII was shit. My experience through it was 100% boredom because the battles were just me button mashing through them and praying that they would finish. That's the problem with JRPGs. You flaunt around gameplay time and never ask if the gameplay is actually good. That 100+ hours is pure garbage because it's just me wanting to get to the next section of the game because combat is painfully slow and unrewarding, BUT it's the only break I have from the disgusting cringeworthy story about waifus and their feelings. So basically I don't get a break no matter what part of the game I'm playing.

Whatever happened to popping in a game, playing it, and enjoying it? Why do I need to be enthralled with a 50 hour story about the power of love and friendship, which quickly becomes an edgelord story about muh feelings? Whatever happened to "KILL BAD GUY"? Was that not artistic enough? We couldn't shove enough waifus into such a simple plot?

JRPGs are *supposed* to be story driven. Even the retro JRPGs were extremely heavy on story for their time. The problem is when you force unskippable cinematic shit into a genre that isn't supposed to be story-driven like the action genre, see God of War.

Your argument was that "it's okay for games to be bad, because bad games have always existed". I'm simply saying that this isn't true.

So they're *supposed* to be bad? Because I always felt like games should be good.

>The problem is when you force unskippable cinematic shit into a genre that isn't supposed to be story-driven like the action genre, see God of War.
God of War is bad regardless of the story, and infact has the exact same problem as Xenoblade. The gameplay is rancid, so it hides behind the poorly written, overtly bloated plot to hide it. After all, you won't be able to notice the gameplay being a mindless button mash fest if you're too busy watching cutscenes. Now, strip all of that out, and suddenly your ""gameplay"" no longer has a shield to fall back behind, and it crumbles miserably, aka Neil Druckmann's worst nightmare.

Over 2 years and still living in Yea Forums's mind, rent free.

XB2 being "too anime" trigger Xeno secondaries and Redditors. The sexy anime girls triggered ResetEra, SJWs, and trannies. Soñyggers were triggered because it's a Switch exclusive. Then you had the people who complained that normal battles took too long because they were too stupid to understand the battle system.

I think it's just thirsty JRPG fans and people who've barely played any.

Those are all valid reasons to dislike the game.

I'll admit the game has an 11/10 score, really unique visuals, and the concept is fantastic, but the execution is really mediocre and the writing is crazy inconsistent.

Make up your minds.

You sound mad.
If GoW is so great why are there 0 threads about it?
Yes people have discussed XB2 gameplay and story a lot, you would have know this if you did't have selective sight. After discussion died down, the waifus which are the cherry on top keep interest in the game alive. Nothing wrong with that. Not my fault your movie has no appealing female characters.

Why do you even exist?

Lay of the shitty weeb games and maybe you'll be able to form a coherent sentence next time.

Apart from Tressa;s chapter 4 I'd say all of them do get better as they go on, even if some of them peak early like Olberic's chapter 3

There are plenty of threads about it. They're just console warring shit though, no gameplay discussion. Hence the game is bad.

I'll take "things that never happened" for 500.

If I was a normalfag, I would love story heavy games because it means I don't have to actually play them, and I can watch them play themselves. Isn't that right?

Has ANY of the this thread ever played Persona or Xenoblade?
Because with current Yea Forums, 50% of the thread literally never played the game.

Why would you call me a normalfag, then? In the same breath you even call me a contrarian for "hating a popular game like xenoblade". Well, am I a normalfag, or a contrarian? These things are kind of mutually exclusive.

quite corny is an understatement. You really need to have the right mindset for this game. It's like a world where anime clichés are part of it's rules of nature. On top of that there are insame amounts of cutscenes.

I am really enjoying it right now, playing only 1 or 2 chapters a day. The combat is oddly satisfying once you get to experiment. The plot is so by the numbers and blatant about it... i gotta respect that. It's like an anime fairytale.

>Because with current Yea Forums, 50% of the thread literally never played the game.

I played P3P, P4G, and P5. Played Xenogears, XBC, and XBC2. Persona at its worst is still better than Xeno at its best.

Why are Xenoblade threads full of autists sperging out over Persona while Persona threads don't even mention Xeno?

Yes as I said, you have selective sight.

What gets me is that the fanbase has deluded themselves into thinking that literally everyone who says anything negative about the game is one particular person. I've never seen any other fanbase do that, and there are some pretty deluded fanbases out there.

I'm 26 and it still makes my inner 15 year old happy. Haven't played any jrpg in 10 years tho, so my inner 15yo is kinda starved

If people genuinely liked the gameplay, then gameplay discussion would've never died down. We wouldn't have constant porn threads. There are games over 3 decades old that still receive hearty discussion. Your 100+ hour long JRPG should still be brimming with actual gameplay discussion. What does it say about your game when the entire fanbase hates it so much that they'd rather just discuss the porn?

Sorry, only got into Persona with P4G and I don't do physical games anymore since they're such a hassle living in the middle of nowhere - and I mean middle of nowhere, takes Amazon packages over a month to get to me.

But do they? I can admit the game was pretty shitty and I spent like 60 hours on it because there was nothing else to play. It was a bogstandard JRPG.

Incels, user, not switch fans. There are plenty of switch fans that didn't play this garbage.

I still haven't gotten a proper justification for why the game has over 14 hours of cutscenes. Is the gameplay so shit that it's incapable of delivering the plot through something other than dialogue and cinematics? Is environmental storytelling such a giant hurdle for these hacks?

The "Japanese humor" webm is probably only a few people though and they should be ignored because mindless trolling/hate is pointless.

the funny thing is that you don't need 100 million dollars. You don't need in-gameplay cutscenes. It's called being competent and knowing when to give the player relevant info. This is grade school game design. Xenoblade constantly wastes my time with cutscenes that do nothing to further the game, and are just retarded fluff for the sake of comedy. They do not improve or build upon the gameplay in any way.

more like xenoqueers lmao

nah man, it's fun this way. Sit down, do some missions, watch an anime, repeat. it's chill and i like it

You dumbasses keep fucking up.

Xenogears Disc 1 is a solid 8/10 game. Disc 2 might as well not exist in my eyes, it's straight to the garbage bin tier.

It's a JRPG, since it has semi-turn based battles.

And you never said that 20 hours couldn't be had with replayability.

because i don't want to watch a movie but play a chill game. It's as simple as that. It's a different experience that watching a flick.
I could also say "why are you watching a movie and not just playing a game? The gameplay defeats the purpose of watching the movie" the rythm of gameplay and cutscene is part of the experience i like in this game and yeah, it's also because it's simple. Some optional bosses are pretty tough and i go for them sometimes as well btw

So you haven't played it, good to know you're talking out of your ass.

>using art for western rpgs instead of in-game screenshots

Just in case this thread derails into "Eric" paranoia discord and starts going to shit allow me to explain why this happens.

> Let me explain.

Whenever someone says something bad about XB2, a nintendies mind goes into a state known "Eric projection".
In this state, any and all criticisms of XB2 are pinned to a man known as Eric.
Sometimes, XB2 fucks up something fierce and the normal Eric Projection mode doesn't work, so they then activate "Seething and Coping Eric deflector mode" where the man known as Eric is now "Coping" and "Seething".
Sometimes, they will call posts made within less then a minute of each other, "Eric". And even though this is impossible, they're mind see's nothing wrong with it in Eric Projection mode.

>17 months since launch and the butthurt still remains

You faggots realize that people would eventually stop discussing the game if you stopped making threads about how much you hate it, right?

Persona 5 looks cool, but I can just emulate every persona game to date. If it was ported to switch, I would hope would add some exclusive content. Like persona's inspired by Nintendo characters, or costumes based on Nintendo IPs. Stuff like that.

If I hated the game, why would I bother fighting the superbosses? You don't just tell me that 50 hours of boredom and bad gameplay are magically redeemed by one segment.

>because i don't want to watch a movie but play a chill game.
But you're not playing it. You're watching it play itself. That is no different from a movie.

>the rythm of gameplay and cutscene is part of the experience i like in this game and yeah, it's also because it's simple
Again, if the game had no cutscenes this would be understandable. But you are literally defending the game being filled with cinematics and sections where you are not interacting with it in the slightest. You even said it yourself. "I hate playing games and I'd rather just watch them play out." right from your post.

Just as a cherry ontop, you called me a faggot when I made the simple implication that I'd rather just skip the cutscenes, because I hate them. I get attacked from every single person in the fandom because I committed the crime of liking gameplay more than cutscenes. Explain to me how that's fair or tolerant.

It's so funny to me. Nintendo exclusives keep getting discussed (by fans and shitposters) for months and years.
When PS4 gets a new game, it gets forgotten by everyone, shitposters included, after a month tops.
Just fucking look at Days gone. It's been super up for 3 years. Then it came out and nothing. Sony Dan's would rather obsess about Xenoblade than to play their own games.

It's Eric with "k" instead of a "c" at the end.

Pfft, story? If you want a story ask your mom for a bedtime story. Who needs a story in games. Psh, graphics? If I want graphics I look out the window, games don't need graphics. Characters? Get some friends you loser. Music? Music is for fags.

The only thing a game needs is when I push a button, a number goes up so my monkey brain feels happy, okay? I like those games so all games should be like that, I can't possibly imagine that other people have any need for anything else, I like it, why would anyone else not like it?

Whatever you say Eric.

He basically admitted he's retarded...

It's fair because you're a gigantic faggot who thinks a role playing game shouldn't focus on story roles?

>muh sony boogeyman

Grow up, faggot

You know what a game needs to be good? To be on PS4 and not Switch.
Is the game PS4 exclusives? goty
Is it multiplayer but not on Switch? Awesome

I bet you expect me to disagree with that, in a sort of gottem that you concocted. On the contrary, I love that idea. I'd be more than happy to get rid of graphics, characters, story, and music, and just be left with the barebones gameplay at its finest. Maybe have the graphics be the most basic representation, like ASCII, so you at least see what you're doing.

Other than that, it'll kick out the people that play games for story and graphics, and leave only pure gameplay kino.

You know what could help? GAMEPLAY ROLES. Those fit fine for role playing too. I don't need a story to tell me to care about something.

Why do you keep reposting it?

I have actually never seen this in game and 95% of people who play Xenoblade 2 won't. This sequence requires maxing out affinity of a rare blade in a shitty optional sidequest, and getting the rare blade depends on RNG.

This is the equivalent of complaining about the Justin Bailey code in Metroid. Fuck off.

Unfortunately for you, your bitching isn't going to actually change anything.
Games with cutscenes will continue to be made, people who like story with their gameplay will keep buying them, and you'll keep crying about it until you either grow up and learn to accept that not everything is made according to your tastes or die.

I'm aware of that. Fortnite and Call of Duty proved that the masses are braindead and will play anything as long as it has enough waifus/marketing/gimmicks. I just have to settle with being the minority that knows better than 99% of the sheep that populate this industry. It's a consolation prize I accept wholeheartedly.

Meanwhile you have to continue using popularity as an arguing point, because you can't actually defend the game on its own merits. That's a victory in my book.

>I just said i really enjoy Xenoblade because it's dumb.
And then you proceeded to attack me when I said I didn't like it. I even outlined my reasons why, but in your words I was "autistic" and "a faggot" because I don't feel like sitting through anime cutscenes constantly.

Dilate.

Better than BotW and Odyssey. At least the filler parts are optional and not 90% of the game.

Because a good story needs a storyteller, a so called director. If you're playing a game where you want to live in the world and connect with the characters there's no better way than a well crafted cutscene. Ingame storytelling is extremely limited and can be ruined by a million factors, taking a players control away for them is not neccesarily a bad thing.

But why not just watch a movie you ask? Because it's a role playing game and that involves inhabiting the role of another character, wheter it's a self insert or a character you're meant to emphasize with having control of the character and being allowed to decide where and when you go and do something helps facilitate that. A movie is 2 hours and you'll care about some of the characters if they're well written and have some very charismatic actors portraying them, there's a limited space in a movie for connection and exploration of the movies world and characters. Movies are 100% directed and that's why they almost always manage to be more emotionally engaging than the average game.

Playing a game means spending hours to dozens of hours with the characters and as a character. You're also free to explore the world at your own pace deciding to explore the sights or speak to random npc's when you like. This is where games excel over movies, you can immerse yourself in the world and do things at your own pace. Now books have an advantage over games and movies in that you have an insight into the characters minds and the author can control the emotional state of the story at any time with descriptions and inner thoughts. This is hard to do in a game where for example Alyx is reuniting with her father and you're just in the corner jumping on some crates or crowbaring Eli in the face, this kills the mood and narrative of the scene.

Sorry for the ramble it's just fun to think about this shit and understand why I love games.

Funny, because I feel much closer to Pac-Man, or the L block from Tetris, then I do any JRPG character. I guess show, don't tell really does help, doesn't it? Give me good gameplay and I'll like you instantly, but give me bad gameplay and I'll hate you no matter how much story you have. Have alot of story, however, and I'll hate you even more because I feel like you're being deceptive, trying to hide bad gameplay with story.

>Playing a game means spending hours to dozens of hours with the characters and as a character
And nothing will ever make me like them other than their gameplay impact. I feel absolutely nothing when the game tries telling me about a character, or talking about their backstory. Infact, the more they talk, the more I hope they violently die. when I play a video game, I have a simple: shut your mouth and get to the gameplay. I wanted to kill every single female in Xenoblade before I even reached halfway in.They're all examples of blabbing their mouths off, without offering any substance to make the gameplay better.It is in this way that Xenoblade failed as a """game""".

I've put alot of thought into this because I too enjoy video gamesw. I love them enough to put them under the spotlight and criticize them deeply for even the tiniest of flaws.

okay wtf. are you high or really just autistic?

tell me what PS4 and X1 and PC have that are EXCLUSIVE in the jrpg market that came out that year?

hm? whats that?
oh right, you can't.

You know how I know you're autistic? Because you accuse me of falling for bait while simultaneously acknowledging that I've baited you into replying. You knew I was just stirring you shitposters up but your autism couldn't stop you from still replying. I'll always give autists like you (you)s because I know you're just desperate for the attention. It keeps these threads alive longer anyway.

Since we're approaching that time of the thread where someone makes a food analogy, I might as well take the lead.

>be chef
>make cake
>it's dry and burnt inside, basically inedible
>cover it with frosting and sprinkles and candy
>everyone praises it as 10/10

And the cake is called Xenoblade. Meanwhile.

>make cake
>use only the best ingredients
>cake is moist and delicious
>doesn't need sprinkles or frosting

I call that cake Dwarf Fortress/Pac-man/Tetris. It doesn't have the fancy gimmicks or storytelling or waifus (aka frosting and sprinkles) but it's delicious on its own and doesn't need those things.

Then why the fuck are you bothering to play any game released from a big budget publisher? Go to newgrounds or itch.io or miniclip or whatever the fuck there is where games are nothing but gameplay and stop playing fucking ROLE playing games and get angry that there's a story. You're like a kid who orders a three course meal with all condiments and then only eats the dry steak. Sure it's the most vital part of the meal but the other shit makes the whole experience so much better, that is if you're literally anyone else and not you.

k then humor me. What's the best example of ludo narrative synergy(i guess that's what we are talking about)?

0 cutscenes, no story, no dialogue, no characters, only gameplay

What the fuck is this? fucking weabos.

so no plot at all or plot only explained through gameplay? because then really why the fuck are you lirking in a rpg thread

Yeah but the overall opinion out weighs it. Whatever that opinion is, is on you. I personally hate the cake but don't mind tasting a little when I can just when I have nothing to eat. The part I'm tasting is the porn btw.

Nice moviegame Son... Err my bad, nin10toddlers.

Super Metroid is one of my favorites. Bar that disgusting intro cutscene that can't be skipped, you don't need any dialogue or cinematics telling you where to go.

For purity sake, I'd argue the original Tetris. It's fun even to this day, and has aged like fine wine.

>Then why the fuck are you bothering to play any game released from a big budget publisher?
Since this was funded by NINTENDO, I expected their trademark quality. You know, the company that helped revive video games after the great crash? I figured they wouldn't let their subsidiaries like Monolith Soft fall into the same traps that other game companies did. An entire century's worth of experience, and this is their best effort.

Preferably no plot because in that case there is 0% chance that the gameplay is interrupted by cutscenes or anything else that distracts gameplay.
If you really need plot then do it through gameplay.

>the scuffed, laggy wii u version of BOTW is almost as good as RDR2 for the PS4
yikes

I don't. As a Xenoblade 1 fan I find this game tremendously disappointing. Frankly speaking I think the game's dogshit.

I sometimes wonder what'd be the overall opinion on XB2 without any fan service?

kisekibros...

A little better, but it'd sell worse.

I'm a skelly who has trouble getting more calories in to gain. What is this magical drink or milkshake you are referring to exactly that top out 2000+ calories per cup, because it sounds like McDonalds solved my problem.
Please help a bro out.

God damn I didn't think XB2 would get BTFO this bad in a poll.

an edit

The next game should just be straight up porn it'd solve the cringe issues and be praised.

he's bullshitting

You have no idea.

You're looking for the Shamrock Shake, with M&Ms and whipped cream on top. That thing is a calorie Katrina.

But everything can cause cancer.

Figures that it's something only sold in the US.

Yes, and you can avoid quite a few of those things. They shouldn't be putting cancer right in the food.

>You're looking for the Shamrock Shake, with M&Ms and whipped cream on top. That thing is a calorie Katrina.
How many M&Ms are you adding here? All I can find on Google is that the large version of the shake has 850 calories.

damn , no wonder it took me half a year to end this shit

That's true.

Micky D's lets you add an entire package, which is no small feat.

You know what, I think I was thinking of the oreo shake. Looking it up, the Shamrock is only about 1000. Minor mixup on my end.

XB2 is so irrelevant it derailed a thread to discussing about food. Great thread.

Literally impossible, you can't derail shitposting.

But it just did.

Indeed. This game is not merely "good". It's a masterpiece.

Why are XB2 fans such cucks?
Begging for Personachads to notice them by making threads?

Nintendofags have been the ones begging for persona 5 really. and I say that as someone who dislikes both Persona 5 and Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

How is this thread still alive? It's basically on life support.

>Nobody mentions Persona
>Personacucks immediately need to post about their game
Yeah, pretty sure Personacucks are simply obsessed with Xenochads.

I think you actually like that scene.
I mean, every thread, you are here.

I think you're being delusional. Stop playing boogeyman.

Lmao keep thinking you're on a pedestal. It makes it even funnier to watch you go insane.

Personacucks really are pathetic.

By the way, XC2 is the worst Xenoblade game, definitely the worst Xenoblade Chronicles game.

why do people even buy a console before a decent catalogue of games is out

Why did they pretend Xenoblade was good? I actually got memed into buying that shit. Absolute generic pile of trash.

Why does this game cause so much butthurt?

she can leave her hat on!

I love how the audience is standing there completely still and not reacting in the slightest.

oh my fucking god it's this retard and his spergings again

it sold well, took a decidedly goofy and more lighthearted tone than either of its predecessors and added the most "anime" art style the series has seen yet (with some...interesting character designs, to put it nicely), has a bunch of anime waifu shit to make fun of/jerk off to, and is neither universally loved or universally hated
truly, the perfect sweetspot for endless autistic arguments.

Because all Nintendrönes eat and drink söy all day and it affects their hormones. Nintendon't listen to the opinion of these manbabies.

>fanbase known for hating movie games and incites hate against any movie games
>Xenomovie chronicles comes out
>now suddenly movie games are okay

That's my biggest issue with it. It's hypocrisy that goes unpunished.

I'm not a Nintendo fan but I think it's funny.

>fanbase known for hating movie games and incites hate against any movie games
the second half of the first game was virtually a visual novel and the three games after that were movie games before movie games were much of a thing
what are you smoking?

im looking at a 3ds purchase soon, feels good

It's funny because it triggers pretentious assholes like yourself who get butthurt by the phrase movie game

>gacha elements thrown in
Sorry you weren't smart enough to understand the multi varied game mechanics as well as combat mechanics.

That's the hypocrisy I'm talking about. God of War has a few cutscenes, but 60 hours of gameplay, and it gets labeled "SJW movieshit." Xenoblade has almost 5 times the amount of cutscenes, and suddenly it's the best game ever.

The worst is when you act pretentious against people who hate all movie games and just want less cutscenes period. Like it's a sin to want to actually PLAY your video game, instead of watch it play itself in a movie.

>M-MUH 100 HOURS
Didn't work for God of War. I'm not accepting it here either.

>multi platform games counting as launch titles

There are certain things it does very well but there's a reason people are still going back and forth on it, it's a controversial game.

>combat too hard for my pea brain
>I'll just use my auto attack!

Is this really how it looks like? fucking smeared oil, no way people can play like that on docked mode

>neither universally loved or universally hated

It's just Eric and Xfag sperging it up.

>metacritic
Ah yes, the same website where God of War and TLOU have a 95+ metacritic. Truly a trustworthy group of individuals without an AAA bias. No sir.

I love how metacritic only matters when you want it to.

Xenoblade isn't anywhere near AAA.

Photoshop

It never mattered to me. I hate the website because it's just a popularity contest about how many shills can sign up for free accounts and spam 10/10 scores. I even brought up God of War and TLOU becuse I figured alot of people here would hate those games, and thus disagree on the absurdly high metacritic scores. You know, to find common ground here.

That's awful convenient when it still costs 60 bucks. It definitely has an AAA budget.

You realize Metacritic is an aggregator, right? It doesn't directly rate the shows itself like say, IGN or Gamespot does, right?

>EA and Ubisoft all over the fucking place
I can't wait till the inevitable game crash Jim Sterling predicted will happen so EA and Ubisoft can just be killed off by their investors.

>Xenoblade
>AAA

lmfao.

That's handheld mode.

Attached: D4aD-JDUEAUUa1T.jpg (1280x720, 213K)

That's only true of the critic scores. The user scores are made up of people who can sign up for an account and influence it any way they want, even if they've never touched the game. So that invalidates the user score as useful, and since professional critics are paid off assholes and liars, that invalidates their score too. So again I ask you: why bring up metacritic in a positive light?

Both genuinely great games. Stop trying so hard to fit in. It's rotting your brain.

that's your problem. you think the xenoblade fan base hates GoW and the "sjw movieshit". where it's just shitposters just being shitposters. Stop acting like a victim because you seem to only come to these threads when it's just nothing but shitposting.

>good games can't have cringe moments

He's just mentally ill, ignore him.

>Both genuinely great games
Yes, I love how neither can maintain a stable framerate, despite being advertised by sony to be showcases of the """"amazing hardware"""". I also love how GOW is filled with hour after hour dedicated solely to loading screens disguised as canned animations, all because their devs wouldn't know how to program their way out of a 64-bit paper bag. I even love how the mastermind behind TLOU, Neil Druckmann, says that gameplay isn't important in a game and that diversity is his number one goal, which is why TLOU2 at E3 was nothing but showing off the story and even more canned animations that probably won't make it into the final game.

And of course the scores are totally legit, even though sony has been caught fixing reviews in the past, through explicit bribes or "care packages" to influence reviewers. And how could we forget times like Kane and Lynch, Donkey Konga, or Driv3r, where journalists were more than happy to lie their asses off for a paycheck. But the scores are totally legitimate, right? And it's crazy to assume that these people might have ulterior motives when rating the games so high?

resetera and reddit are basically just as triggered as Yea Forums.
Slightly different reasons, but looking at this thread and the fact that snoyfags have embraced being normalfags, maybe actually the same reasons.

Does it make you a normalfag to hate story heavy games, even though normalfags love movie games like Uncharted and God of War? Hmmmm..... it makes you think.

Don't lump xeno2fags with normal xenofags. Xenoblade 2 is an abomination. Somehow achieving looks worse than xenoblade X.
