>Would you want any Xeno- character to be added into Smash on top of Shulk?
I would pick Tora&Poppi.
Just steal the switching mechanic from the Pokemon Trainer and replace them with the three Poppi forms.

...

Let's argue the deranged faggot into sleep deprivation, hopefully he dies from it.

If they did a Blade switching mechanic, it'd be more likely to be Rex with Pyra + Mythra + Pneuma. Or Pyra/Mythra + Roc + Nia

I want the next Xeno game to have an anime art style to piss off insecure Amerifats again.

But Tora would be more fun, in my opinion.

KOS-MOS because Smash needs more range oriented characters

Awful taste.

Pyra's a personality-blackhole and a doormat. I don't understand why people like her aside from her looks. She's less interesting than your average western roastie.

being a personality-blackhole is better in my book than being an average western roastie
that's why I prefer her over mythra who's as much of a basic bitch as a blade can be

KOS-MOS or Elma would be cool but those are NEVER EVERs, and honestly I don't think they're popular enough to warrant a spot.

I played them for the first time this year and honestly III is the only one that holds up all around.
EpI had the best direction and atmosphere but the graphics and animations are really shit by today's standards, and the battle system was super repetitive.
EpII improved the battle system and had actual fucking music variety during gameplay but the story was really weak outside of the URTV stuff and the battle system got boring once I got to Orgulla and realized the best tactic for every battle is to fully stock and then unleash a huge combo ad nauseum.
EpIII had a fantastic soundtrack, a battle system that is simple but effective and actually FAST, it finally nailed the art style, and it brought back some of the worldbuilding from the first game. Its just a shame that by that point the damage had been done and the series was irrevocably fucked.

But she's just not interesting. I'd rather them have a shitty personality than no personality. If she had something going on for her other than being a stereotypical ideal female, I might actually enjoy her more.

There is one nitpick I really have to mention because it drives me fucking nuts.
What idiot at Monolith failed to learn how light works?
If you for example enter the Titan warship in Gromott, the entire outside will fade to black.

Which is completely fucking retarded and jarring, the outside should always fade to pure white to give the impression of your eyes having adjusted to the light inside.

You get the exact same performance saving technique, just the fucking color is different.
I can't believe they didn't even fix it in Torna.

Rex+Pyra/Mythra, he would be a Shulk + Ice Climbers + Pokemon Trainer on steroids, allowing for a very versatile and interesting gameplay (albeit maybe hard to master depending on how they do it). Plus a god tier Pneuma or Siren finisher.

I just wish non-main blades got more art. I can't count KOS-MOS and T-Elos because they've been around much, much longer and aren't blades outside XC2.

I'd go a step further and say I wish non-Rex/Pyra/Mythra/Nia characters got more art.

Absolutely not. That's why Reyn, Poppi, Nia, and Tora aren't very high.

Indol is concealing all the art, the same way they're concealing all the Rare Blades. Blame this guy.

KOS-MOS but I also think Rex would be neat if they incorporated move cancelling and Pythra switching (even though I'm not a fan of him).

I'm pretty boring but Xenosaga 1 will always have a place in my heart. A part of me wishes that they had kept Xenosaga more stylistically consistent across the games because 2 and 3 felt like major downgrades. 3 at least makes up for it with the mech battles which are the most fun the series has to offer.

Nah, Miss Minge wasn't that good of a character, just good in relation to the lacking Pyra and Mythra. In the grand scheme of Xenoblade, she wasn't that great.

These are accurate

She barely developed because of how little she did in the story. There were entire chapters where she did nothing and took a back seat. Granted, she developed more than Pyra/Mythra/Rex/Zeke/Pandoria/Brighid/Morag/Tora/etc, but they didn't develop much either.

not him but the third form IS referred to as Pneuma in the artbook (and IIRC Takahashi used the name in one of his comments on the art contest). the artbook also reconfirms that Pyra and Mythra have dropped that name and want to use their current names even while in that form, but it's totally fair game to call fanart of it 'Pneuma'

2 is over 1 simply due to the game having more charming dialogue. They get way more interaction time than the rest of and thus is on top.

I really wished Nintendo would put in the effort to translate their artbooks and disrtibute them internationally.

The last time an artbook was translated it was censored to hell and left a very bad taste.

Which one was that?
Nintendo has been a lot better about censorship with the switch, but you never know with companies.

Attached: XBC2_Mnu001_titlebg_0.png (1280x720, 743K)

Well, the Creating a Champion artbook for BotW was translated, but I don't see XC2's one being translated ever. We already had the CE's artbook, I doubt any editor would take the risks to release XC2's full artbook in the west when people already have half the artbook from the CE, very few people would buy it, therefore it's a bigger risk financially.

Bravely Second, one of the games which censorship was so bad that NoJ finally noticed NoA's bullshit and now have them by the neck.

God, the censorship in X was absurd. I wish we'd get a Xenoblade X port on Switch with functioning online and removing the censorship.

Bravely Default really was that one game that made people turn against the treehouse and NOA

Very true, CEs do make it less attractive.
But for people who don't buy them because they didn't know they would fall in love with a game it really sucks.

Bravely Default's censorship made people notice, but it was Bravely Second's censorship which made people go full against NoA.

Look, I didn't know about the BoTW one because I don't like BoTW.

Is it happening?

localization beyond translation really was a mistake
who is to blame for this? NOA as a whole? I heard people complain about treehouse censoring shit somehow
Is it individual people in the loca department?
I mean the censorship has been going on for years and eventually the customer service department and executives should have heard some complaints right?

Which is irony because they didn't do that one (they did all the others, though).

Oh shit, user. Pyra and Mythra want you dead for that thing you did to Rex. The closest thing to your right is your melee weapon and the thing closest to your left is your ranged. How long do you survive?

Tora and Poppi, once you remove waifufags, are arguably more popular than Rex and Pyra/Mythra.
They also present more interesting options for moves and a weirder hitbox considering Tora is a furball.

The treehouse is the localization departement of NOA, so people blame them as a whole.

NOA was pretty free to do what they wanted, the headquarters in Japan made them explicitly so they could handle US relations.
Something NCL wasn't sure they could do themselves, not being familiar with western culture.

So most people split the blame between NOA and tthe treehouse.

What is this measuring? Coolness factor?

if that was the case Jin would be fucking SSS

What's the deal with those generic forgettable anime protags in Xenoblade? Only played the first one and Shulk is utterly boring and forgettable, the game would have been much better if he was dropped completely and replaced by Dunban and Fiora /u/s Melia.
Xenogears/saga are way better at this.

Because you need a protagonist that can introduce the player to the world, so they're usually younger and don't know too much like anime protags

Speaking of, what about that one amazing fight track that you can only hear in the corridor before the final boss and in KOS-MOS's side quest.
I always end up really liking these underutilized tracks for some reason.

the music in Torna is fucking god tier, that combat music.

Lao had tons of friends, he just missed his family. It's why he bonded with Lin - she was also Asian and he saw her as his daughter. Remember when he tried to stop her from heading into the ambush he helped set up to get Cross and Elma killed? Yeah, it's because he projected his feelings for his daughter onto Lin.

Takahashi actually caved in. There's an interview floating around where Takahashi claims that there were a lot of people who didn't like Fei and Shion, especially Shion. Takahashi came to the conclusion that players don't like playing as protagonists who do morally ambiguous and sometimes bad things, since most players (normalfags) want a relatable moralfag protagonist who isn't moody or depressing. He says that Shulk was intended to pander to a wider, and younger audience, hence why he's a boring goodie-two-shoes that most people love.

KOS-MOS as the second Bamco rep and Malos as a Shulk echo.

It feels like the first low orbit station was originally meant to be an actual dungeon instead of just some empty areas then one corridor with a couple of enemies. Otherwise it's just bizarre that they composed a whole new battle theme for two or three optional fights and a sidequest most players will never even do.

Post every rare blade that you can get from gacha then. I want to update my collection

>To be able to self-insert. Rex is also really bland and uninteresting and easy to insert
The game fails utterly at that
Rex has enough character to not be a faceless protag but his character is so overoptimistic and borderline retarded that I can't identify with his character
I guess I've just gotten too old for nintendo's target audience with XC2 even though previous Xeno games still work for me today

betweenlifeandgames.com/analyses/history-xenogears-xenosaga-part-4-monolith-soft-nintendo/
The entire article is written extremely biased against Xenoblade 1 though.

>Another thing that should be touched on is the goal Takahashi and Takeda had to create a main character who wouldn’t be hated by the player, something that often happened in Xenogears and Xenosaga. The reason why many gamers hate the main characters in Xenogears and Xenosaga, as well as other RPGs, is usually because the hero goes against the player’s wishes, by saying something the player didn’t want them to say, or betraying the player with some action they didn’t want to do.

>In other words, the new design philosophy is more or less accommodation – giving gamers what they want. With Xenogears and Xenosaga the ambition had more to do with Takahashi’s personal desire to “express himself,” as we have explored in the other parts, and as he mentioned in an interview:

First Xeno-game
Xenoblade chronicles 2
Favorite xeno- game
Xenoblade chronicles 2
Favorite Xeno- girl

Mythra/pyra, nia, zeke, rex.

That part at least has the justification of being a boss rush where the regular boss theme might not work as well.
XB2 just has a couple of random normal enemies.

I almost feel bad remembering how much people got their hopes up for X. They really thought they were getting something that could top Gears and Saga. XC1fags were also hoping for some massive story twist fest.

dis nigga look like that monkey with the watermelon

Reading comment sections with hindsight really shows you that people are almost never right in their predictions.

I can remember XC1 fans initially crying over X's anime artstyle and calling some of the characters bug-eyed moeshit, before the potato meme took off. Unironically.

X did top Gears and Saga though.

...good? no remakes are ever good and how the fuck would it live up to anything if it was done by current square? it's a cult classic already, fuck off

X was a big disappointment
The mechs looked cool but everything else in the game was inferior to XC1 and now is inferior to XC2 as well

Who drew the art for the characters faces in XB2? Can we make sure that piece of trash never touches another Xeno- game and he goes back to doujins or the lowest funded anime?

X had the best combat, world design, lore, side quests, gameplay, exploration, and level design. While its main plot wasn't great, the rest of its story was far superior than what came before and after it. The lore and world building especially outstrips both 1 and 2.

You're right about everything besides lore and world building.
X's weakest aspect was its lore and world building though.
If anything the Xeno game that excels the most at lore is Xenosaga and world building is Xenoblade 2.

wrong on all accounts
especially on the world design, it did have some nice environments but it totally gets BTFO'd by XC1's titan based world

My mom can draw a face that has more discernible detail than that so no, it's not my mommy.

Absolutely not. X had hands down the best lore and world building. Every damn enemy type in the game - and there were over 100 - had their own 3 paragraph long bio explaining everything down to their reproductive cycles and the greater impact on the world. Like the giant plant monsters that live in Sylvalum and Cauldros spew their sperm into the air, which becomes the white pollen sand that coats Sylvalum.

Attached: 1482260993293.jpg (4000x3930, 3.51M)

X's lore is epic but shallow. X's world building is speculative and mysterious. There's more questions than answers and we might never get answers. It's incomplete.
2's lore is more expansive and its world building is also much more meticulous.

>but it totally gets BTFO'd by XC1's titan based world
That's not world design, that's world concept. None of the areas in XC1 are as well designed as the areas in XCX.

Wasn't XB2 characters designed by a hentai artist or was that just the outfits?

Xenoblade 3 should have a Wild Arms/Gun X Sword style setting.

They were designed by a hentai artist.
But to be fair, literally every previous Xeno character designer has drawn hentai too.

Yeah, because Morag totally looks like Nia, and Brighid totally looks like Poppi.

Just saying: In Japan, hentai artist being hired to work as designer of Animes and games is normal as fuck, nobody bats an eye.

>hentai artist
Not even surprised.

Hentai artist can range from Chris-chan to some of the best art created in anime. It's just the vast majority are shit and they get hired because anime has no standards at all anymore.

Some of the drafts were actually not that bad, but the final designs and specifically their recreation in 3D are just fucking terrible.

2's world design is pathetic, though. It's explained matter-of-factly but is definitely not as meticulously crafted as X's, which is about as well explained as a fantasy world can get. Where you have intricate webs of monster interactions, factions, and NPC actions. There are well over 200 unique NPCs in NLA alone, and you help each and every single one of them in one quest or another, and they're all connected to eachother by at most 6 degrees of separation.

Further helping X against 2 is that X had an affinity chart showing how detailed the world was.

Attached: 3tjwh5x[1].jpg (1338x1120, 322K)

>and they get hired because anime has no standards at all anymore
>anymore
Hentai artists have made up a huge chunk of regular vidya and anime character designers as far back as the 80s.
It was even more common for everybody's favourite anime artist or vidya artist in the 90s to draw hentai on the side than it is now.
Think of your favourite character designers from 90s JRPGs and anime and you'll be surprised how many of them draw hentai or at least ecchi.

My only Xeno game so far has been Xenogears. I just got done playing through it a couple weeks ago, and it was definitely a ride. Been hearing about the incredibly messy state of Disc 2 for years, but nothing could have prepared me to actually experiencing it. Nor for the ChuChu scene. Or the orgy.

I'm really tempted to take the plunge and watch Gunbuster and Texhnolyze already but I'm 33 episodes deep into LotGH so it'll have to wait.

Apart from Rex, Pyra and Mythra, Saitom has my favourite character designs. Morag, Poppi, Zeke, Amalthus, The Architect, Pneuma, etc. I do like CHOCO’s colour design a lot though.

Considering how poorly it adapted Tanaka's style for characters I don't even want to think about how it would look with CHOCO's style.

>you shouldn't watch it, it's trash
thanks, i won't waifufag

X's problem, visually, was using the create-a-character to create every human character in game. The characters that don't use it - the ayy lmaos - all look fantastic. If they ditch using the CaC for Xenoblade Chronicles X2, it'll look amazing, especially if they bring Choco or Saitom back for art and character design.

Never heard this, fuuuck, why would you cut this

if you haven't downloaded the new revival disc, you should, it was mastered MUCH better than the original was and has 4 or so tracks orchestrated

What emulator do you guys use to play Xenogears?

Give me chubby and shiny Pyra

why does the one on the left look like a guy, especially the legs, but yet has beach ball tits?

Neat, got a link?
That also reminds me that a Chrono Cross revival album in a similar vein is dropping on Thursday. Hopefully a kind user ups it somewhere./spoiler]

I played it on Vita earlier this year using the 2.0 patch, but I guess in terms of emulators either epsxe or retroarch are your best bets.

I just used Xebra with undub patch. It’s as close to the authentic Xenogears experience as you can get.

I use ePSXe when I want to emulate however I own a physical copy of Xenogears so I just play that when I want to do a playthrough.

the video of the concert is 2.8gb or the 3gigs so just don't worry about that if you don't want it.

still waiting on a Nopon party member that finally accomplishes being both insufferable and indisposable in equal measure

>Riki is meant to be 'shocking' with some of the things he says but no-one ever gets that upset by him and his utility as a party member outstrips any possible annoying elements
>Tatsu is constantly infuriating but after the followball he contributes nothing despite having the best VA of any main nopon
>Tora is too relatable to be hated by the main Xeno audience and is joined at the hip with the loli robot

I want a Nopon who can solo bosses, then sells you out for his own agenda, but comes back to rescue you only because his scheme needs more help on the inside.

don't give me that fucking look malon you bitch, just answer the question

It's a fucking shame. I hated Shion when I first played the game at 14 coming off of a Xenogears high, but the older I get the more I relate to her.

I still don't believe in Sakurai's "It was too late to add Rex" thing. I'm gonna hold out hope until the last slot that we'll see a Xeno2 addition.

Yeah, Shion can be really unlikeable but I think that's exactly what makes her an interesting protagonist. She's swayed by her emotions and acts like a cunt a lot, but in a way that's realistic without being tsundere or a generic goody two-shoes MC.
Fei was great as well, and perhaps a better balance between likable and realistic. It's a shame the XB protags are all so lame in comparison.

Hot fucking damn

X is the best Xenoblade

I have an N3DSXL. Is Xenoblade 1 ported well, or does it run like shit?

It runs very well.

He will be in the second fighter pass or as a bonus character

>the second fighter pass
A man can dream

Its obviously gonna happen its basically free money for Nintendo

>Tora and Poppi
Based. Those two would be an easy fit into Smash, would dodge the "MUH ANIME SWORDSPERSON" bitching, and be a really unique fighter.

This. I have no idea why people like Elma. I'm not even kidding when I say that Cross, the silent protagonist, was more entertaining than her.

Fuck this game, Fuck Takahashi and fuck his wife Sora with a drill.

She's actually interesting and mysterious while also developing as a character throughout the game.

When will we get a fucking announcement monolith

>Bumping a dead thread
Why does The Good Boy's Club do this?

It probably will, the devs and writers are autistic anime otaku. Even when they try to stray away from their signature formula it turns out having a similar vibe anyway.
Fuck normalfags anyway, I don't know how many times I've heard them screech about liking XC2 and hiding it because they're insecure retards that can't trust their own friends. Imagine living like that.

It runs well, only downsides are:
>Shit resolution (but you should be used to this since you have a 3DS
>Noticeably worse textures, especially for character faces
>No dual audio, dub only (not much of an issue to anyone but hardcore weebs, the dub is an unironic 10/10)

If you're able to look past all that for the sake of portability, go right ahead.

Serial Experiments Lain or Turn A Gundam
Xenogears

Good numbers.

This, Xenogears was flawed (and I still love it anyway) but imagine the horrors of it getting a FF7-style remake.
Not to mention the story was kinda brutal at times and packed with weird jew shit twisted as evil superscience, it would be censored to hell and back because of muh modern sensibilities.

When xenoblade 2 reaches 2 million sales, last we heard it was close to 1.8 million.

I want the next Xeno game to have X's artstyle 1:1 to piss off everybody.

>everybody
Not me because I didn't mind it at all.

X was same character designer from gears and saga ep1, I never had a problem with it.

And fuck them too.

fucking brainlet zoomers dont even know how much waifu material was KOS-MOS

There's a difference between "waifu material" and waifufag pandering, and it always gets overlooked whenever the issue is brought up.

these fetch quests are really starting to wear on me especially when you have to run around a fucking mountain to find the single path up to where i need to go. most of these people i can put into my party are shit too

do any of xenoblades emulate well and are they worth the effort? I played Xenosaga and Xenogears

>fetch quest
any quest that requires collectibles is never worth prioritizing, just do anything else and run over blue crystals when you see em. unless you mean there's a specific red collectible you have to collect

Blade 1 emulates well with Dolphin, you may want to get a HD texture pack for it though so it looks better.

X on cemu is near perfect.

Attached: IMG_20190620_124149.jpg (1628x2048, 253K)

As long as they use the experience gained from 2 to improve adapting the characters' concept art to 3D models, I don't mind.

Xenoblade 1 runs pretty flawlessly on Dolphin and you have the option of rendering the graphics at higher rates. Never really bothered with "HD texture packs" but the game looks fine if you render it anything above the Wii's shitass 480i.

>tfw swapped that trash out with PSO music right away
Probably made me appreciate the game more than intended.

i played a lot of pso v1 on dreamcast forever ago, that would be much better music than this shit. how do i go about replacing it? this boon music is giving me a headache

Super Mario U added the Luigi DLC eventually, but that's about it.

refi64.com/proj/xcxsound.html
If you're emulating, it's as easy as taking the converted files and dropping them into the folder. Probably the same if you're pirating, or you can use whatever this thing does with loadiine, I don't have a clue.
I recommend Day Dawns for NLA day/night (not a hard choice really), and Tricktrack part 2 for combat music. For some reason it says everywhere that x48_00 is the doll/skell combat music, but it was actually x07_01 for me.

Oh, and for me it just breaks shit if I try to change volume when offered, so you might want to do it beforehand with ffmpeg. I settled on 60%.
Could just upload my files if you're fine with those choices.

if you have files i could drag and drop or something that'd be helpful. i did lower the volume of my sounds by 80% since the mixing is also awful. playing on cemu with a extracted/installed rom and i have a backup of my snd directory.

mega.nz/#F!L3pynIJL!7HWOWldp_ep4Aot5S9eXhw
Here. Doll combat is replaced with Versus1 -Tricktrack- instead, it's mostly the same but not quite.
I don't know what x48 is actually used for but also replaced it just in case.

In extra, x62 replaces the ambush music with the first 30s of youtu.be/TfYAS3TKXBk (yes, from 2, couldn't find anything fitting from the original), and x78 replaces the barracks bgm with PSO Valentine lobby music. Just personal preference, the original tracks are alright I guess.

Drop to GAME\content\stream\bgm.

thanks i'll give it a try after i eat something

when can we expect a new xeno announcement? or is it only one xemo game per nintendo console now?

If they port X that could be announced at any time, but a new game would probably be 2020 at the earliest.

works good, thanks a lot. pso was the last game a family member bought me before they died so it has a special spot for me

Nintendo have mismanaged the development team, if they hadn't you'd have it in your hands mid 2020, but at this rate you'd be lucky if there was a new one announced by mid 2020.

Glad to help, enjoy.
