Xenoblade X not getting a switch port

This and no X2.

new game when?

>Each entry is better than the previous one
I know you're not used to this, OP (also you're a faggot), as it usually always go downhill, but Monolith knows what they're doing. Next Xeno entry will be even better.

for me, none of the xenoblade games have been outright better or worse than their predecessor. they improve on some things, but other things get worse.
I like that they're not afraid to switch things up, though.

Reading about the cut content from XCX gave me depression.

Both Chronicles and 2 is a fucking cheesy story snooze fest, with the exception of Throna which was pretty great.

Torna sucks compared to the base game

Huh?

not for a first playthrough

>>Story finally becomes decent
What was decent about it. It was all shit we knew would happen (except done in ways that contradict the original) mixed with mandatory sidequest filler to pads the playtime to warrant the purchase price. Only piece of XBC2's DLC I regret

this is like comparing Rex monado bustering Aion to the time where Shulk fucking jobbed against Yaldabaoth.

not an autoban, but the jannies don't seem to like seeing it anymore.
Same with have sex responses, reporting those gets rid of them very quickly now.

Good, there's literally nothing wrong with that scene

So I'm about to buy 2, but the Expansion Pack.
Should I go ahead and buy it with it, or should I finish the Main Story of 2 first?
Also Nia is best girl.

Order of release is the best way to play it

It also gives you dlc for the main game so you might as well buy it now.

Hold off on buying it until you know you like the game.
And if/when you do buy it, make sure you get that $30 DLC version, not the more expensive one for people who don't own XB2.

The "shocked" replies are also always the same, I bet it's just one dedicated autist spamming it.

>The misuse of a meme.

Your both virgins in the end for playing these games. Stop pretending any of you fags are chad. Both are anime weeb games just ones cringier then the other.

The scene is not the problem, is that is used exclusively as shitposting bait. The samefag replies they always get doesn't help.

From what've heard. the optimal point to play Torna is considered by Takahashi to be after chapter 7 in the base game

I stopped enjoying XC2 because of the affinity stuff, fucking upgrading your blades shouldn't feel like busywork.

I'm not Zeke

Yea Forums will pitch a hissy fit about Breath of the Wild's big map with "nothing to do," but will jerk off to the mention of Xenoblade Chronicles X despite it's even bigger map with even less to do.

Why is that? Is it because yall like the bikinis the little girl characters wear?

How good is XBC 3d on the 3ds? I am only about a half hour into the game and I just can't get into it. Does it take off soon? Is the journey rewarding?

The WII U.

Xenoblade Chronicle X is one of the best open world I have ever played. I expected nothing of it, and was hooked was 80+ hours. It was released on the WII U, though, and was sold like utter shit.

So they decided to create a waifu pandering X Chronicles 2. And it worked.

>Should i buy the Expansion pack
Absolutely, it's well worth the money, one of the best in years
>Should I go ahead and buy it with it, or should I finish the Main Story of 2 first?
If you're mostly sure to buy it, buy it now as it adds things to the main game. I'd also advise to play it after beating XC2.

I think it gets good when you reach Colony 6. At least wait until Shulk gets the Monado

Sheba is definately top tier

Something about highheel snoby lesbians that is objectively great

They just keep pandering more and more to the horny weebs. That's why the score keeps dropping and dropping. X and 2 should've been the pillars that supported what 1 made but instead they just keep on dropping in quality. 2 is still a much better game than X but both are far worse than 1.

Instead of making a proper sequel to the first game, they decided to reboot it twice for no good reason.

for me the game started picking up after fiora dies but colony 6 like the other user said is a good point too

Also, since you're about to buy XC2, here's the newDriver pasta :
-Screencap tutorials because there isn't a reasonable way to view them again.
-Rex automatically gets fantastic blades so you don't need to give him much Blades from the gacha (but give him 2 or 3 good Blades)
-Use Pouch Items as much as possible, especially the ones that lets you recharge your Arts faster. Makes the flow of the battle better.
-On skill trees, you will see an ability unlock "Cancel a driver art with another driver art". It's imperative that you unlock this ASAP because it boosts the flow of battle tremendously.
-Also get the 3 skills that lets you start a battle with the Art already charged on the X, Y and B buttons
-Understand the Attack Cancelling mechanic, as it makes the flow of the battle better by recharging Arts quickly
-Swapping blades refills their arts palette.
-You can combo into and out of swapping blades.
-Most enemies will aggro you if you aren't 8 levels above them. And look at your environment before taking a step in the wild, or you could get your ass raped by a Gorilla 80 levels over you. But the game don't punish you for exploring, so don't be afraid to do it.
-Don't use too much bonus XP at inns unless you really need to because it can completely trivialize the game.
-Focus on the Driver Combo of Break > Topple > Launch > Smash when they will be introduced. The sooner you can understand this set up, the better.
-You can raise trust between a Driver and their Blade by repeatedly using pouch items over and over again. It costs money, but later in the game money is a non-issue.
-Raising trust with your Blade is needed to unlock the Blade's skill tree in most cases.
-Don't waste protocol overdrives. Especially on common blades. The game only gives you a few.
-DON'T kill the little Arduran in Torigoth until you feed it to Lv.99. He'll become the best Legendary Cores farming spot.

No is not, as is a scene at the end of a gatcha blade event, most of the players never see it.

you don't learn that until halfway though

Imagine being misinformed this heavily. You're only saying this, because it wasn't an actual sequel to XC1. Wait until XC3, Ryan.

Neither xbx or xbc2 are reboots. Hells, Xbc1 and Xbc2 literally happen at the same time.

To be fair, that is what reddit thinks of it. Of course that's just because it's a Nintendo exclusive and they don't want to feel bad about missing out.

Xenoblade? more like Kinoblade

I wouln't be so sure, sadly. If something is unveiled at this E3, it's their supposedly fantasy action game. At best you could hope for a XCX port despite what Takahashi is saying, if Nintendo wills it, it'll be done, but then again, they would announce it at the same time as a XCX2, and I don't see that happening soon.

The game used the extra screen for important shit. It's not happening.

No they got Senran Kagura for that or at least they did. Face it, it's got something to do with some of the cringy money's in the game beside the "Japanese humor" quest. There's Poppy's scenes and idol animations and other questionable fan service scenes like the Rex dinner party scene and Bed scene.

Then why's it banned here and trigger so many folk?

Moments*

My bad inb4 someone corrects me or calls me a faggot.

Because it was spammed over 700 times in a little over half as many days, spamming is against the rules you know.

Nah, it's pretty much just snoyfags SEETHING after being destroyed by Zelda, and people in these threads not being nice to them at all.

It's a dumb fucking scene for a dumb side quest. It could've ended differently.

>legacy

the only "legacy" that cherrypicked webm is how sad the haters of this game are when they spam it over and over and over:
boards.fireden.net/v/search/image/7eHXNsruDOsMIROi78Pbkg/
and that is not even considering that a swimsuit version exists that is spammed but not as frequently

>Then why's it banned here and trigger so many folk?
excessive spam and cherrypicking

It can be played offscreen, it's not that important, just more practical. What prevents it to be done is money/risks, and Takahashi wanting to "recreate it", whatever that means knowing him, fixing all he shit that was wrong, adding content, rework said-content as in for-the-sequel, and maybe rework the style to make Tanaka's art work like how they managed to do it with XC2's style

The real question is, what went wrong with XC2? The world wasn't as rich to explore, and objectively more tedious due to Field Skills. The gameplay was an improvement for sure, but your ability to properly experiment with new Blades was locked behind Gacha for the most part. The story took 6 whole Chapters to really gain focus, and even then the overly light hearted ending was nothing more than a terrible final boss, and fan service. Losing over half their team to work on "Bore of the Wild", really hurt the game, and it shows heavily. Torna was leagues ahead.

Blades are the core aspect of the series. I'm sure XC3 will continue that trend. I really hope they bring back playable mechs in the mainline, though. I thought about it recently, but Blades being able to turn into giant mechs for XC3 would be based.

I didn't really mind since the game outright explains to you why the blades have such different styles. Kind of like Stands in Jojo or Persona

Thanks for explaining your reasoning. Seriously though, they are one of the core premises of Xenoblade. While it wasn't in your face like XC2, Shulk was still an Aegis Driver for Ontos, and to a degree Fiora was too. I'm sure XC3 will have a Blade/Driver system as well.

Yes, she's really hot
The final form is also easily the best blade in the entire game, it's fucking nuts how strong she is.

The quest to unlock her is also kinda fun.

This. I hate the direction this series is going. I loved X and hated 2.

THE WIND BLOWS HARD IN DECEMBER

Let's hope this move won't ruin the franchise.

What went wrong is it literally taking 10 hours to kill a single mob even when ur 20 levels ahead.

No you didn't.

You do realize that X is an entirely different timeline, right?

Use driver and blade combos and combine those with chain attacks.
Makes short work of any enemy.

hey ive taken a break from xeno2 but am getting ready to start again. I left off around stopping in rex's hometown, but I was just curious, do you have to wait for a storypoint to get poppis third form, or is it a sidequest?

Because nothing you just said makes any sense with the previous post.

That's the icing on the cake that happens when you did build up a combo, yes? What's wrong with it? It's a special attack like in any jrpg in existence

Sure. The porn one is selling so it will probably be their direction going forward.

You all want make me want to play X again.
Please stop, it's my 7th run or something

I sure did, how can you deny that?

A literal combo special attack from someone 18 levels higher does literally 10% damage. Xenoblade is literally the only JRPG that has this kind of shit.

You have to get to chapter 8, which is still quite far away if I remember correctly

Because there's not a single story-required check that can't be done with your default Blades.

2 was by far the easiest game in the series. Even the hardest challenge in the main game (not counting the Nopon and Elma DLC) paled in comparison to Ga Jiarg/Ga Buidhe or Lorithia. Hell, even Egil was harder than 99% of fights in 2.

What the hell are you guys doing that you need to use chain attacks with elemental orbs against regular mobs? That shit takes way too long.
Just use fusion combos, for fuck's sake.

Explain to me how 'armor' makes a mob that is literally 20 levels lower take literally 0 damage. Try to justify this in any way.
Are you trolling or really this stupid? I know how the game works you absolute brainlet. What i'm saying is that it should not take longer than 4 seconds to kill a mob that you passed in levels by atleast 20 like the webm i linked you. Fuck sake.

I hate the hamster guys.
And im 2 hours in, and it still feels like im in tutorial mode.
The worst part it, i feel like ive forgotten half the mechanics, do if I ever wanted to pick it up again, Id need to restart it and grind through the tutorials again.

I assume he's talking about unique monsters, because there is literally no reason to fight regular mobs that much weaker than you.

1 was extremely kino. It's a straight up legendary game. So is X, but 1 felt so much more exciting considering we hadn't had a good JRPG since Tales of Vesperia like 3 years before this game released, and then like 4 years before that when Symphonia released. Now JRPGs are great again.

>C

XC2iggers refuse to go to /vg/
They're a parasite on this fanbase.

>What i'm saying is that it should not take longer than 4 seconds to kill a mob that you passed in levels by atleast 20 like the webm i linked you. Fuck sake.
These enemies will literally ignore you, why are you fighting them in the first place?

>Okay game
>Brilliant game
>Shit game
What are some other examples of this happening?

X lacked spikes, but the enemies could deal far more damage otherwise. Ga Jiarg could straight up OHKO a level 30 skell, and the weather damage was brutal for builds that had no good way of keeping health up. People who hadn't kept up on their gear got thrashed by Ga Jiarg/Buidhe.

Everything after Prison Island has a spike, and it's not exactly hard to make anti-spike gems, especially when you know you're going to need them for the rest of the game, at least until you fight Abaasy.

Even if it was blocked, the max is like 50%, which scaling wise in any other game would still instantly kill anything 20 levels under you.
Why are you moving goalposts?

I hear you. At first I thought it was a meme, but they actually can't cope. XC2 was an actual mistake. These threads turned into hot shit because of this game.

Change OK to fantastic. XCX was a 9.5/10, XC1 was a 9/10, XC2 was a 8/10.

>Even if it was blocked, the max is like 50%
By whose definition? Yours?
Show me a game that blocks less than 50% when an attack is blocked.
In fact, show me one that blocks less than 80%, it'll be even easier. But you wont find one because most games either block the attacks entirely or only deal chip damage. Be happy your attacks aren't just bouncing off of it, shitter.

Combat is setup based and fight take a little bit, if fighting weaker enemies bothers you, simply ignore them or use fusion combos to kill them.
It's that simple, stop expecting the game to spoonfeed you the entire time with easy kills
How casual are you?

Black Tar is such a great song.

Again, the amount of damage blocked doesn't fucking matter you brainlet. Even if it blocked 80% which in most games if you are 20 levels ahead doesn't even fucking work on you anymore, you'd still intstakill any mob you outleveled that fucking hard. And even if you fight enemies that don't block, you still don't kill them fast to make it feel like you outleveled them.
>Making low level fights slow means it's not for the casual gamer HUHU
Yikes. Could not imagine being that dumb. If anything Xenoblade is the fucking casual game because you literally have to try to die in that game.

it came out during a period where jrpgs were absolutely shit. and the second half was meh but I still liked it

Most people didn't know shit about the metagame back then. Even then, most people stuck with the casual-bait of ether longsword + blossom dance.

I like how this is ignoring Rex' proportions which are that of a child.
Also the suit is neither practical or flashy, it's just garbage and the practicals stuff is just "It's magic, I ain't gotta explain shit".
All of which could've been used for a proper use of the meme but that picture is a lost cause anyways

Wait people had issue with Ga Jiarg? I trashed that fight. Was I just that incredibly overlevelled?

>If anything Xenoblade is the fucking casual game because you literally have to try to die in that game.
Play XCX blind, I dare you.

>this stupid shit again

Not even Miyamoto could make a game that used the fucking gamepad in a meaningful way.
I thought we were over this shit after the NX rumors appeared and even the biggest fanboys dumped the WiiU immediately

Most people were underleveled/under-equipped. I remember endless crying Wojaks in the Yea Forums threads. These are the same people who insist that X is too easy because of "infinite overdrive" when they couldn't even get to 20 on the OD without a guide.

Well depends
Were you aware of the meta? Nothing in the story is challenging if you do.
Either that or overlevelled

I really like how you said nothing except for "bland", as if that explains anything.

>The tone of the story changed after Fiora joins the party, everyone realizes there's more to the Mechonis, and Shulk no longer has a reason to be an autistic sperge about revenge
Gee, who would have thought? The characters aren't any more, or less bland than its sequels. Give it a rest.

I ended up liking Xc2 more because enemy balancing, difficulty sliders and Blade synergy added some interesting variety. X was great in this department but the grinding for augments and killing Telethia and Yggdralith was boring as fuck. XC1 unfortunately had that stupid level mechanic that pretty much forced you to stack on one fucking stat to even hit the enemies and every single superbosses have some sort of stupid spike to add some artificial difficulty

I've focused entirely on beamspam the entire time. Once I saw there was a giant beam class I went for that and I carried that philosophy to skells. I actually just started playing last month, 200ish hours in and I just got skell flight and have been having tons of fun exploring all of the first three zones I couldn't reach before. Sylvalum and Cauldros I've hardly touched at this point

I'm starting to believe the Cabal memes, honestly. Everytime someone starts criticizing XC2 in specific, someone, or some group of people start spamming their waifu images to cope with this. That literally never happens when people criticize XC1, or XCX. This fandom really turned to shit after XC2's release. Xfag might have autism, but he was right.

t. Xfag

Literally everything. The concept, the world, the characters, the designs, the story, everything. It's all ugly as hell and disgustingly bad. This series was a massive waste of time and money on my part and Monolith's part.

Galahad Fortress is easily the lowest point of the game, and I agree about Fiora, but then again, I'm a Meliafag.

I should add, I have no idea what any effective meta is, I don't know how overdrive really works, and I'm sure i'm playing suboptimally.

If that's what you think, but I've been observing the threads for awhile and it's true. I can't name a single time when someone started spamming porn, when XC1, or XCX started getting bashed.

>shulk no longer has a reason to be an autistic sperge about revenge
This is the worst thing in XC1 plot. Dude drop his revenge quest solely because his waifu turns out to be alive. All the other bad things that mechonis did suddenly doesn't matter, but who cares, his waifu is still alive. Let's talk about love and peace and coexistence. Fucking hypocritical faggot. It would have been much better if fiora stays dead and shulk still drop his revenge quest despite his loss. That way maybe his words would have some weight in them.

The cabal never played the original, despite jerking off the Shulk reference at the end of XC2.

It would've been interesting if Meyneth still used Fiora's body, but Fiora was actually dead, and Shulk had to come to terms with that.

>"Waaah why isn't my MC a bloodthirsty murderer anymore! Why did he have to develop after realizing that the Mechons are people too due to his discovery of their village and history on the Fallen Arm!"
Please stop talking.

At least bother to read the guy's full post.
He's saying it would've been better to Shulk to come to that conclusion without the game making it easy for him by giving him his girlfriend back.

I only used a P5 reaction image to get a response out of you. I could care less about that mediocre game. It doesn't change the fact that XC2 fags in specific have been shitting up Xeno threads with their excessive waifuposting.

There have been plenty of xc2 threads discussing the gameplay and story. Not my fault you cherry pick those page 10 threads and post

>He damages the ground himself because of his excessive sperging and falls to his death
Yeah, keep pushing this meme. Mumkhar's character arc was over by then to begin with. It wasn't the best writing, but nothing good would have came from stretching it out even further. They weren't going to convince Mumkhar to change his ways after going on his autistic killing spree, and Shulk wasn't going to let Dunban bloody his hands. Writing him off like that was probably the best solution.

The first couple months of the game's release, and Torna? Sure. These threads have overstayed their welcome, and continually get worse. Even DMCfags, Sekirofags, and KHfags have been gradually moving back to their generals. Why can't you?

What's even the logical progression for XC3? There don't seem to be any loose threads in the 1/2 universe. Perhaps a direct sequel to 2 taking place on the new landmass created at the end of the game? Or maybe a game in the universe that Shulk creates in 1?

So why is klauss a dick in XC1 but a pretty cool guy in XC2? Aren't they pretty much the same person?

They started as the same person, but their experiences made them develop in different ways.
XB1 Klaus got a whole new universe to play god in, and that made him into an even bigger dick.
XB2 Klaus got to see the destruction his rash behavior had caused and had to rebuild things himself, and that helped humble him (though he's still kind of a dick).

It's done pretty great. They're indeed the same person. There's one big difference though. Klaus in XC1 is one that sees the experiment as a success, and got full of himself. Klaus in XC2 is one that sees Earth getting destroyed and trying to make amend and fixing his mistake

>Logical progression
I mean, Ontos is really the only Aegis Core with power. Malos is dead, and Pneuma is nerfed. It's possible that the universes of XC1 & XC2 healing properly, created a new universe entirely. Either way, I expect XC3 to be a proper sequel, so who knows. It would be insane if Takahashi went full madman and the new universe is a mixture of the Bionis, and Alrest or something. Just speculating, though.

Wait for the more powerful Switch model. It's supposedly coming this year.

Based

Nothing. All three games are fantastic and Monolith is easily one the best talents in the industry. Nintendo owes BotW's success to them.

I'm kind of expecting XB3 to have something to do with the Saviorite rebels that were mentioned briefly in XB2.
I don't feel like they would've named them if they weren't important.

Will X ever be ported to the Switch? I don't want to buy 2 consoles.

>It's supposedly coming this year.
Never trust Nintendo hearsay rumors. People just make fake rumors of things that they want. They rarely ever come true. It doesn't even make sense to make an updated model this early into the switch's lifespan.
What about a prequel taking place on pre-conduit earth?

Attached: 2969862-conceptsocial3.jpg (678x960, 104K)

It's unlikely.
The last we heard, Takahashi wanted to bring it to Switch, but money was a big roadblock to that and "the future is unclear".

If anything the waifus are a return to form after the comparably less-sexualied XB1 and XBX. Pyra and Mythra definitely harken back to KOS-MOS and T-elos in that they're artificial beings that are hyper-sexualied just 'cause.
I agree on gacha-shit but I would be surprised if it ever comes back. They definitely could have done it better, but it still does somewhat make sense in-universe for XB2.

Earth is kinda boring when it comes to fantasy-like environments, and what will we fight? Cats and dogs? Soldiers most likely, and variation of mechs, but it won't be exciting pretty quickly. Pre-conduit Earth won't happen because it doesn't fit what Xenoblade is going for. It would be fitting if we where still in the Xenosaga era.

Attached: 1542923268742.jpg (2132x1200, 1.28M)

People have been saying a prequel along the lines of would be good. Basically you play as Klaus or someone close to him in the events leading up to the experiment that spawns the XB1 universe and borks the original one.

My idea for the epic tweest is close to the end, you learn that it's not a prequel at all and is in fact a direct sequel to XB1 taking place in the universe Shulk created. Time operates in a Zanza->Shulk->Zanza loop with alternate universes branching off from that central "hub". At the end, Klaus is given the choice whether to continue or attempt to branch off into something else. The result is left ambiguous.

>doesnt fit what xenoblade is going for
Takahashi has alluded to the next game not being like the previous 3

>When I opened the Conduit, many people and many things...disappeared, into distant dimensions.
so this line is basically setting up the potential for monolith to make xenoblade games in whatever kind of settings they want and still tie them back to the experiment, right

No, the concepts of xenoblade only exist in 2 universes due to the trinity cores

That's what he's always saying, it's never true. Besides, he said he wanted to do something different, not "fake scifi" as he said it, and more genuine fantasy, plus his M rated game, violet and shit. But that's it, he wants to do a game like this, not specifically Xenoblade. Xenoblade is different each time, but deep down, it has its own DNA. I expect the battle system to change, the setting to change, many things to change, but whatever they change, I still expect to explore a big fantasy-like world with impossible geology.

If there's one planet that doesn't fit that description, it most certainly is current Earth (or even near future Earth, for that matter). Though I'll admit he actually did it on Earth, in XC2, it's just called Alrest.

He's already gone up to CERO D before, so it shouldn't be that much of a stretch.

PLEASE, bring back playable mechs for XC3. I know it's in X, but I'd really love to use them in 3. Not being able to fly around with Siren was blue balls to the extreme.
Klaus's Experiment explicitly states that various things ended up in various universes. Even without the Aegis Cores present, the Zohar could still manifest in alternate dimensions. Basically there's possibilities galore.

Nintendo let Bayonetta 2 happen and told Platinum to make the Nintendo costumes more lewd so they'll probably let Takahashi do what he wants, as long as it isn't so violent that it pisses off CERO, Suda said that he had to censor some of the violence in Travis Strikes Again bacause Nintendo told him to tone it down.

>Suda said that he had to censor some of the violence in Travis Strikes Again bacause Nintendo told him to tone it down.
I kind of wonder if that happened with Torna, too. The scene where Gort gets his arms chopped off is so damn tame it took me a bit to figure out what was even supposed to be happening.
Maingame XB2 also has that one scene with the failed core resonation where blood's clearly supposed to be spurting out of the guy (and Rex even comments on it), but it's just blue ether.

Xenogears is arguably shounen too, in the same way Evangelion is.

Xenosaga is definitely seinen and Xenoblade X could be interpreted as seinen.

I really don't understand what's so hard to accept. Xenoblade as a series is downright shonen, and Takahashi has stated as such. Anyone saying
"N-Nuh uh!"
Or deflecting to another game, is a delusional retard. Just accept it, and enjoy the games. People need to unironically, COPE.

>I dream of a Xenogears remake too, user, but its never happening.
Realistically, yes. But considering how free of a hand Nintendo has given Takahashi with his projects so far, you never know. After all, the man clearly still has an attachment to 'saga if past interviews are anything to go by and it's not as if he's never filed the serial numbers off his prior work to repackage it before.

the manga started in a shonen magazine and remained in it for the majority of its run. it switched to seinen later.

>In a way they are a genre
I wouldn't really compare Hokuto no Ken with To Love Ru or Dr. Slump.

Is there a bigger redemption arc in JRPG history? I thought Xeno was unsalvagable after how bad Xenoblade 1 was but X was incredible and 2 was fantastic.

XC2 is the only game that sold well and people were talking about 1

Just look them up

You're forgetting that Squeenix owns the Xenogears IP. Buying it back, would cost a lot of money. Takahashi might as well continue his Blade "Perfect Works", and let it go. I see no reason for Nintendo to help him acquire the IP license. Maybe if Iwata was still alive since he had a relationship with Takahashi, but no.

>Blade 2's success
ftfy

where? I know the japanese sales were like 200k, but xenoblade sells better in the west

>People were talking about 1
Reread the chain. People weren't talking about XC1 in specific. They were simply comparing Blade as a whole, to Saga and Gears. Blade is objectively more successful than both in this regard. On its own, XC1 might be lacking. Then again, the 3DS port applies as well.

You might be misinformed then, because XC1 was so good that it put Monolith on the map. XCX, and XC2 are good in their own regards, though.

>You're forgetting that Squeenix owns the Xenogears IP. Buying it back, would cost a lot of money. Takahashi might as well continue his Blade "Perfect Works", and let it go.

>implying that stopped Takahashi from straight-up retelling story content from XPW for Xenosaga with a few names and details changed.

Any "Xenogears remake" within XC's umbrella wouldn't be a carbon clone, it'd be something with very thematically and narratively similar with just enough details changed to avoid a lawsuit, and using the fixtures of XC as devices to tell it.

While I doubt that Takahashi is *that* attached to his freshman work in the broader Xeno metaseries, the stuff needed for a "remake" is not at all something new or unprecedented for him.

I wouldn't dislike it, but I don't really see the point at this rate. Blade is basically Gears lite.

Let's all agree that Square are a bunch of greedy assholes

>I wouldn't dislike it, but I don't really see the point at this rate. Blade is basically Gears lite.
Mostly the novelty of being able to get a glimpse of a "what-if" and to pay homage in the 'Episode 5' of Takahashi's Third Wild Ride.

More realistically, it'll probably be something wholly unrelated, since I'm not sure if Takahashi will even still be in the industry by then.

True

Plot takes a backseat to exploration.
To be fair though the only game where plot REALLY is affected by open-endedness is X. 1 and 2 tended to strike a nice balance of exploration and linearity.

Who is Ryan?

>Xfag pretends he isn't retarded
LOL, how funny.
Why haven't you killed yourself yet, I would in your shoes.

I'm only going to tell you once. Fuck off. I know what you're trying to do. I've identified your posting style for months now and you keep deflecting between 1 & 2 to hide yourself. You keep driving animosity between the games without mentioning X, and I'm sick of it. You need to fucking cope.

Stop assuming everyone that doesn't like your sacred game is me, cabalposter.

No worries, just slowly pushing you to suicide

X's character designer is the same as Xengears and Xenosaga's character designer.

Xenosaga's character designer has nothing to do with Xenoblade 1 though, Blade X and Blade 1 look nothing alike.

I hope this is japes.

>"Muh minge, amiright fellow XC2 chads? :^)
Cope, Ryan.

Xfag is the cabal's favorite boogeyman.

>lol you're just retarded!
I'm not the one calling shonen anime stories complex.

I feel really bad for this fandom. I've never seen this level of paranoia over boogeyman, this hard in a set fandom. How you even manage to have threads, is beyond me.

Why did you reply twice?

At least we’re still getting threads.

Can it really be called a "boogeyman" when he posts the same exact arguments, same exact works, same exact images with the same exact filenames in every single thread?

words*

The guy saying "muh boogeyman" is also one person, he literally posts the exact same shit every time.
But that might just be Xfag and his multiple personality disorder.

lmao, what the hell are you talking about? The strongest, absolute most powerful super boss in the game, on the hardest difficulty mode, in CHALLENGE mode, can be beaten in under a minute SOLO with no party members.

Many enemies in the game can be ONE SHOT by a single AUTO ATTACK if you have the right build.

What I am trying to say is that, holy shit, you fucking suck.

I really don't know what's worse. Trying to analyze the shitposting pattern of autistic boogeymen, when they've already derailed your threads and will continue to for as long as they're made, or the actual boogeymen themselves. It's truthfully just, pathetic. I'm really glad Persona, nor DMC have this issue. Ah well. Cope.

It's literally just one guy.
Notice that the 'overly defensive 2 fan who always takes the bait' only shows up at the same time the 'guy who posts the same bait over and over again' starts shitposting.

It's the cycle of autism. He'll keep on samefagging and falseflagging his little fanbase war argument until the thread hits bump limit or until people stop posting ITT.

>Personacucks
Mention the switch in one of their threads and the entire thing goes apeshit
SEETHE more.

Just bait him and report him for low quality posts, works pretty much every time.

>Everyone is the same autistic fuck on an Indonesian reaction posting board full of thousands of people on the spectrum
Seek help, Ryan.

I definitely don’t think XC2 is better than XCX, but they’re good in different ways and hard to compare in any objective manner

I don't really care if it's one person or multiple or whatever the fuck, I just wish the mods would do their job for once and put an end to this shit.

Less bickering, more mingeposting

Bang

They sometimes do.
Mods banned him and deleted all of his posts in one thread and he was literally playing two different sides of an argument.

>Personacucks
I actually haven't played a Persona game, since P4. P5 was arguably, offensive garbage, and I only really save the artwork. The threads can fall apart for all I care, since I know they'll progressively get worse in the future. The Xeno fandom is in the same boat, so there's no point in trying to throw around buzzword terms like "seethe", or "cope". All I can say is, at least Persona threads aren't utter garbage like these piles of shit. You don't even have anything to discuss anymore.

>Only one got deleted and it was at the same time as other posts indicting he was banned

Hmmm, It's almost as if we're two different people.

You do realize that a day or two ago, someone openly admitted to calling people Xfag on purpose to derail threads, right?

>he's this SEETHING he got banned

You say this like getting banned even matters on this website. Ban evasion is simple for anyone who isn't new.

It's pretty clear there are at least two COPING autists here.
Eric and Xfag were never the same person either.

Absolutely nothing

Literally what

Fucking hell. I actually felt my heart sink watching that.

Before I start XCX does the plot resolve or is it a cliffhanger?

yes

So I'm currently working my way through XC1, assuming that I want to play through the other two games in the XC franchise in release order, which prior Xeno media does it make sense to play/read/watch before:

>XCX
>XC2

to get the fullest enjoyment of each?

To the cliffhanger part, or the resolution?

yes

Fine. I'm blaming you if I get 80 hours in and then am angrier than after ME3.

i'll accept that

Gears is good but overrated, and Saga was too much for brainlets to appreciate.

sawano's autism

sawano did nothing wrong
XBX's soundtrack was great

I think Gears is better overall, despite its flaws.
Xenosaga has even MORE issues imo because of its botched development. That being said, all the shit with the upper and lower domains and eternal recurrence were really cool in Xenosaga, and make me thing it would've been the better IP if it didn't get fucked so hard after Ep I.

I'm already finding Black Tar a bit much.

>Posts waifubait while shitting on boogeyman
You guys are literal robots at this point.

both

The soundtrack will grow on you as you play. I remember when black tar leaked pre-release I almost cancelled my preorder, but after 100 hours uncontrollable is now one of my favorite songs in the series and I love the rest of the soundtrack as well except for the NLA themes.
Similar experience with XB2 when I saw the art style and, once again, I ended up loving the game. At this point I'm embracing the fact that I'm going to see some bullshit in the eventual XB3/XBX2 reveal and I'll just roll with it.

Gears was overally the better game, yes, and it wasn't fucked as hard as Saga. Saga is divided into 3 games with largely fluctuating quality.
That said Saga 3, even with the cropped plot, was more close to the ultimate JRPG masterpiece than anything else.

I already know of the Skell theme and I am pumped for in 30 hours time to lose my uninsured Skell.

and I still have not finish it
AAAAAAAAAAA
finished x and 2 tho

It's a solid port, but the textures and resolution are shit. Depends on if you value graphics or portability more.

Suck it up and push through, you pussy.
I got burnt out and dropped it a little ways after the halfway point, then picked it back up almost a year later and finished it and was very glad I did. the second half might drag a bit but it's still great.

They're at it again

other games first, it is 3rd on the list of games i'm doing rn

>Is Xenoblade Chronicles worth getting for the 3DS?
How scarce is your free time? If it's at a premium, get it on handheld to enjoy it in the snatches you can throw together. If not, enjoy it in its full visual glory on Wii.

Alternatively, you can hold out hope for a Switch port, but there's no hard indication that that's coming.

I'll agree with you there.
XS3 is the single best of the pre-Blade Xeno games (I only make that distinction because imo they're just too different to be put side by side. I play one for story, the other for gameplay.) but XG remains the better entity because at the end of the day XSIII is just 1/3 of a story while XG is the whole shebang.

I personally didn't get my first skell until 50 hours, and the flight module was after 80.
But holy fuck did taking it slow like that make finally high-tailing it to the top of talon rock even more gratifying. Unironically one of my favorite moments in gaming.

While there's more than a few tracks from XBX that I don't really like, it does have the best main theme, so it's got that going for it.

>is the whole shebang.
More like half of the shebang with a PowerPoint covering the grand lines of the other half.

blade all stands apart, just play the three games.

>blade all stands apart, just play the three games.
I was thinking more in terms of being able to appreciate underlying meta. e.x. plot elements and themes that were first expressed in Gears or one of the Saga games.

That said, if it's really that disconnected from them, no harm in cutting to the chase, I suppose.

Sold. I'll stomach whatever ending happens and fuck around some more with Cemu later.

I have periods where I love the ost, and others where I hate it for being the same thing Sawano always does.
I'll always love Sylvalum though, no matter how Gundam Unicorn it sounds.

X is it's own thing for now while 1 and 2 are only loosely connected.
