Whatever it is, I'm excited.
Hoping it'll either be that fantasy game or a port of X.

New game please. Already played the previous ones to death.

I don't expect an announcement but I will be happy if we see something, whatever it may be. Monolith Soft is by far by favorite developer.

It's XCX2, you will buy Elma's game right?

Soma bringer HD pls

Of course.

I'll probably watch someone play through it because the original X was a trashfire of a game as someone who basically 100%ed both XB1 and 2.

That doesn't mean shit, but I wish we could at least have the ports.

>XCX2
>Elma’s game
I hope we get a new MC

Definitely.

New IP pls.

XCX setup for a sequel, it won't be XCX2, it will never be XCX2

I feel the game will happen in the other cities besides New LA

imagine if they drop an X port on the eshop after the direct
for 40 bucks

I would cream my pants

I mean the game literally ends on a cliffhanger about Elma

X was great for dicking around, it was just that the story part basically didn't matter.

I really want a xenocross port

>It's a Xenogears port with an actual part 2

;_;

the cast of xenogears is too busy being trapped in SE's mobile game cameo dungeon

Where's that fantasy game people said they were doing way back

She ALWAYS retweets Nintendo Directs

Was that not Breath of the Wild?

The hiring page for the fantasy thing and Monolith's Zelda team are still separate, but hiring for the same roles. Who knows what's happening with it.

No way, DxM comes in like 2 weeks, they wouldn't do that for sure.

Let's hope it will be the decensored version
That game was one of those with the NoA treatement

Nah they're different games the only thing they really have in common is mechs and you don't even get your skell in X for ages

Yes, but casual viewer wouldn't know.

I loved XB1. I didn't like XB1. I love Mecha. Chances I'd like XBX? I'm really going its an XBX Ultimate port.

DxM is really not for casuals

Imagine how business works, they wouldn't release two similar looking games at the same time.
But I really, really wish you are right.

I can't think of anything in the game I particularly liked.

>Possible Monolith Soft news
This goy has always retweeted every single fucking Direct. There will be no Xeno news.
Monolithsoft already said they'd never do XCX for switch as they'd have to remake the whole game from scratch. Suck it up you fucking losers.

It's time, Rexbros.

Let it go, Rexcuck. Elma is in.

What directs has she retweeted that didn't have Monolith stuff?

Was online in X even worth it? Finished on cemu

hope it's a xc1 port desu lads

botw2

Seems like a waste if it is

I'm here too lmao. No idea if it's in the Direct but might as well say what I've heard.

>Online got retooled due to some changes on the Switch's backend stuff compared to Wii U
>UI redone for one screen but a lot of assets got recycled
>Targets 1080p@30fps
>No substantial new content, and all MS have done is oversee the project

And it's dropping sometime next year

>next year

hype ruined

XCX

The last one.

There was nothing Xeno from it.

twitter.com/sorayasaga/status/1138545045940854784?s=21

This basically confirms that we will get something Xeno related. She wouldn't retweet if we didn't

See
They already said its not going to happen.

The E3 Direct? She didn't retweet that one. IIRC people flipped out about Takeda retweeting it or something.

>combat felt like shit
I disagree with this, usually I hate MMO auto attack combat but XCX had a surprising amount of depth to its system that kept it in engaging, you had the active skills with cooldowns that had rotations, which when combined with call outs could recover HP or casts buffs with the right timing, combined with drastically reducing the cooldowns, then you throw on top of that weakness and strengths of weapons/armor/augments you add to said weapons and armor based not only on the type of mob you're fighting but WHERE you're positioned when hitting the monsters.
Once I got to the end game I could start overdrive and it would just keep going higher and higher regeneration the TP cost so I could activate it again before it is over thus extending he time and getting stronger as my combo went up. I was in no way pro or high level but thanks to that anything that didn't immediately one shot me would eventually die since the longer I fought the stronger I got. That combat system was quite the engaging power trip with plenty of variety.

you are lying

Takeda retweeted it as well and it's the first Direct he's ever done that for

MonoSoft will be at it in some form and Emily has confirmed Nintendo have an unnannounced first party game due out before the year ends

>Takeda retweeted it as well and it's the first Direct he's ever done that for
I'm pretty sure he did it for the E3 direct. Nothing came out of that, though (obviously).

The squad stuff will be behind nintendo online won't it?
That'll make the endgame super obnoxious.

>first
Second, he retweeted this year's E3 too.

Honestly I would not hate it if they just remade it but I want something new

I'm genuinely shocked I managed to miss this, huh.

Might be for the best though since it saved me the heartbreak

HELLO IS THIS THING ON?

Again, as someone who loved the shit in XB1 and 2, X's never clicked with me. Didn't like Overdrive as a mechanic, either.

i doubt that it'll be a new game, excited if it's an XCX port though

X was 8-4, the guys who did Awakening and Echoes, dude. Hell, X is reason Fates was so shit; because 8-4 was busy with X Treehouse did Fates.

The only thing removed was the titty slider and that was only because it would cause physics glitches in certain scenes. Something to do with the text files interfering, which is why they figured out what was causing it Japanese, but eventually thought it was too much trouble in Romanized alphabets.

It's the closest we got to 80s mecha anime

what if it's just another shitty DLC mii costume for smash

I'd love another Xenoblade X because it had the best exploration and gameplay I the whole saga, but the fact that it was open world with a mission hub made its plot way too limited and irrelevant. At least give the main character some characterization or something, plot and characters are the best thing about 1 and 2 for me.

>Elma
>Relevant
Kek

>The only thing removed was the titty slider
bullshit
they removed the fundoshi too

I honestly dont know how I even finished X. I never understood the combat and I picked it up after like 15 months. At the final boss. I think I used fuel packs and won. Like the boss does some shit that drains your skell if I recall but I said fuck it and killed it in the skell

They changed terminology like Blue Blood and the meaning of BLADE

Reminder that her getting put in XBC2 got talked about more on nip twitter than Shulk

NOW PRESENTINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
SHULK AND FIORA COSTUMES FOR THE FIGHTER MIIS IN SMASH.
PLEASE LOOK FORWARD TO IT.

Also shorts instead of pantsu for Lim

no thanks they will change the artstyle to the shit cellshaded look and heavily change it to cater to the XC2 audience

If anything it is more likely a xcx surprise port announcement or rex in smash.

Fundoshi got cut
Tit slider got cut
Various in universe terms were changed seemingly just to try make them sound better in English despite it possibly interfering with the meaning
Some slight edits were made to character dialogue, such as Elma having sterner reactions to certain dialogue options

Overall not bad and the first two can be put down to Ninty's weird harsh censorship policies from 2014-16 but they did edit some stuff

>Im-fuckin-plying
youtube.com/watch?v=GcNiNVfiXfc

X felt a lot more like a newer real robot anime.

>Defending 8-4

Ask me how I know you're a newfag. Fuck off.

I havent played 2

Part of me still hopes.
The vast majority tells me I'm wrong.

So the port is outsourced? Where?
I mean, if I worked at Monolith Soft and got assigned to porting I would be pretty fucking pissed.

>Yfw no Xenoblade Warriors

Yuzu can't come soon enough

Scandinavia is as much as I'll say

They outsourced the XB1 3DS port, I don't see why they woudn't do the same with X

If it really is a surprise XCX port, that that would actually raise my hopes that they do give a rats ass about XCX.

I think he meant playing, in X you jump and out of mechs whenever you want to travel and/or fight

I never played either of those, but looking at the battle UI I don't see anything in those that indicate your position relative to the monster so i'm guessing those games don't have that like X? I just thought you were selling X's combat short because it is confusing but very rewarding once you get into it.

X is dead dudes. I'm pretty sure after X, they probably got a bunch of complaints that ultimately ended up in the more story driven XC2 with cute waifus. This is what most of the JRPG fandom want anyways. Just look at Fire Emblem.

It's gonna to be Xenowarriors

LKD is now heavily hinting a new musou is coming and after FEWarriors the devs namedropped Xeno as a Nintendo series they'd like to work on

Just to be clear, did she retweet the last two directs or not

I don't think so.

I know, but 1% of me wants to believe that Takahashi isn't a corporate dick sucker who just wants sales. 1% of me believes that he will make a game that he wants, not what the console needs.

She definitely didn't retweet the last one, she even tweeted about how people were assuming she did retweet it when she hadn't.
I don't know about the one before it, though.

No.
This is it. Only way Emily saying Nintendo has a secret first party title for the year makes sense is if its done by a third party since all their teams are either busy on known projects or just released something besides MS themselves who we can presume won't release anything till next year.

>Takahashi didn’t to make XC2
Am I replying to bait or do people actually believe this?

they do though.

XCX is his magnum opus, he only made XC2 because of all the complaints

baten kaitos plz

yes to both

>Implying XB2 wasn't a passion project and a giant love letter to the anime he grew up with

>KT works on a Xenowarriors
Yay
>But it's a FEW scenario and they only pick characters not only just from the Xenoblade games, but also limited to 1 and 2
Fuck
I understand that getting characters from every Xeno series is a copyright nightmare, much like SRW being officially licensed in the west, but it would be a crying shame to have the perfect opportunity for a crossover between three different series in the same "franchise" and not capitalize on it.

New title please.
X is unfinished and mediocre, X2 has a chance at true greatness but they shouldn't easy their time on an X port.

I want to see the """"""""""fantasy"""""""""""" arpg.

If 95% of all the japanese reviews didn't begin with, "I expected this game to be like XC but it is not" sure I would believe you.

They would never get access to anyone from Gears but I could see KosMos and Telos being a "maybe" if they tried.

Damn that’s sad

i hope its that new game. i'm fine with a break from xenoblade for a little

>more cute anime girls from Monolith Soft
I'm excite, who else is excited?

99% its a Xenoblade 1 remake.

When will SE take that stick out of their asses and play ball with the rest
I wanna play as Bart too, god damn it

Friendly reminder to Xfag that Takahashi wrote more for XCX than he had written for any game before it. All of that getting cut out for an experimental open world game was a practical decision.
Much of what was cut was reused in XC2.

I mean if they announced a late December MonoSoft project they'd still have time to advertise it, given MonoSoft doesn't really get tons of E3 ads so it's not impossible by any means, but they'd have to start pushing press playthroughs and demos fast as fuck

>“Come to think of it, Takahashi-san wrote a lot,” says Xenoblade Chronicles X director Koh Kojima. “I’ve worked with Takahashi-san for a long time, but this was the first time I’ve seen him write so much for a game’s plot. It was as if he was writing a novel.”

you refering to this:

iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wiiu/xenoblade-chronicles-x/0/1

Takeda

For this game, a large amount of the plot was written beforehand by Takahashi-san, so I started off by reading that.
Kojima

Come to think of it, Takahashi-san wrote a lot. I've worked with Takahashi-san for a long time, but this was the first time I've seen him write so much for a game's plot. It was as if he was writing a novel.
Takeda

Yes, it was like reading a novel.
Kojima

It was quite a read on its own, so I even suggested to Takahashi-san to get it published.
Iwata

In other words, you put together a script using the pages and pages of plot written beforehand.
Takeda

That's correct. I carefully picked out the stories that fit with the game's content and scale and turned them into scripts

LKD used to be more miss than hit but ever since getting in with Kotaku and gaining their sources she's become consistently right

they're asking you for the source on that shit being reused for XB2 numbskull

Whatever it is I'm excited

New game.
X port is never ever happening.

I think its pretty obvious the spoilered part is just his speculation

>Fire Emblem Warriors had 23 characters at launch, 32 with DLC. But had a shit-ton of reused movesets. Like a third of the roster were clones.
>HW had 13 characters at launch, with maybe 4 additional movesets. Master Quest free DLC added 3 characters and an additional 4 movesets. IIRC. Then original DLC added 3 characters and 2 additional movesets.
>HW:L added 5 characters, 1 additional moveset. Then its DLC added 5 characters and two additional movesets.
>HW:Complete then has 29 characters and 13 additional movesets.
I'd say Xeno-Warriors would probably have the "full" XB1 and 2 cast, a DLC for Torna, some X characters fleshed out by a DLC pack, and KOS-MOS & TEL-OS as the first dlc that doesn't add a lot of content but loads in a major mechanic.

>using DLC content that contradicts basic facts of the canon of the game it's in as a source
no

okay but if we get xenowarriors will blades be playable solo or only with drivers and will we see any of the more popular rare blades like dagas or sheba

I still believe someday Nintendo will make a Smash crossover type of gacha. I honestly feel like if they had used Nintendo IPs with Dragalia Lost gameplay, they would’ve had a huge hit on their hands.

Man, I miss this kind of stuff.
Mecha anime rarely ever does the launching sequence of the robot save for Gundam, and even then it's just the pilot stating their name and the name of the mobile suit they're piloting, which is still cool but not as cool.

Didn't it have a crossover with FEH recently

No?

I love how much people complain XB2 was "Too anime"
Mother fucker it's a giant homage to all the good shit Takahashi got to grew up with as a wee lad.
Poppi QT is just a Magical Girl transformation.
And let's not forget
>That document that states that Nopon literally pretended to be retarded long enough that they forgot they were supposed to be intelligent.

Yeah awhile back and it got a bunch of newcomers to play it. Like imagine if you create a team with like Samus, Zelda, and whoever you like instead of literally whos, and with rpg mechanics. I’m not sure why they haven’t tried it yet, or maybe they’re still getting the formula right with gachas.

>That document that states that Nopon literally pretended to be retarded long enough that they forgot they were supposed to be intelligent.
Nopon culture is literally pic related.

The difference between two that one is a parody not trying to hide it. X wasn't trying to be a parody

Who do I believe

To be fair, they pretend to be retarded in order to jew people out more

That’s probably because super robot anime is a super dead genre. Heck even genuine scifi/fantasy adventure anime are dead as fuck and the one or two you might see every now and then are weak manga/LN adverts.

dragalia lost definitely had a crossover with FEH, if that's what you're asking

Yes, that's what I asked

Xenoblade has had the most soul in a jrpg/adventure game and restored my faith in the genre after shit like ff took it away

Aw shit

X port in time for Xmas

X2 announced

That's why I loved XC2 so much. It reminded me of those 50+ episodes adventure animes we got back in the 90's/early 00's, and we don't get those anymore. Especially when all they do is 12/13 episodes anime nowadays.

Doesn't she do this for all directs?

I'm almost ready to buy fucking Switch for one fucking game

No. She hasn't retweeted any Directs since E3 2018. She only retweets Directs with a big Monolith presence.

That kind of story, and the tone they were going for, just doesn't work with an aged protagonist. Rex was exactly the MC it needed. There's a reason Japan likes to use young characters in that kind of story, but they know (not always though) they'll need to go with a more adult tone for something like, say, Astral Chain.

Probably just retweeting the direct, there's no way that we are seeing anything new from Monolith Soft for a few years, the development team has been expanded sure but now they are having to build a new engine for Switch because Nintendo aren't smart enough to let them use the engine from Breath of the Wild, and now half their development team are working on Zelda games permanently, so any expansion is just getting them back up to their old size.
I'd be surprised if we saw an X port for Switch, may as well just go into the next entry, it's going to be jarring as fuck to see the old visual style be re-released and then see the new one for X2 that they outlined in Xenoblade 2. Just give up already.

I don't know if the BotW engine is multipurpose enough to have a different combat system inserted into it with no big issues
I do hope Nintendo finds a MT Framework of their own though

>build a new engine for Switch

About damn time, Zelda engine is garbage and the XC2 engine is garbage. I want to see Monolith push the boundaries of the hardware.

>it isn't an SNK person but its another snake
liquid
naked
venom

which one will it be

>push the boundaries of the hardware.
>on a sub mobile 3 year old hardware

It needs to wait for NIS to be bought by Sega.
So we can have Dante, Demifiend, and Laharl in the same room.

It's honestly pretty capable for how old it is. Playing Astral Chain right now, and I like how it looks. Sure I could live with less jaggies, but it doesn't bother me that much in motion. And I don't stare at screenshots all day.

In a few years, a new console will be announced and released and they have to release it on there. They better announce something soon or they’ll be releasing 1 game a gen from now on which is pretty disappointing production desu.

>I don't know if the BotW engine is multipurpose enough to have a different combat system inserted into it with no big issues
Not really relevant, with source code access they can make it do whatever they want, traditionally Zelda games and Mario games would jus share the same engine.

>zelda engine is garbage
It's actually really good though, the amount of shit they achieved on just the WiiU at the same time, absolutely insane. It's nowhere near as well optimized for the Switch, but it will be in the sequel.
>XC2 engine is garbage
It was great on WiiU, needs a new engine, or better yet use the Breath of the Wild one and improve that while they are at it.

It's inevitable that their production will go straight through the floor, the studio prioritize graphical fidelity over performance.

That's kind of the point though
He's meant to be very child like compared to the other characters, particularly Zeke and Morag and Vandam
It's why his outfit makes it clear he's scrawny even without other characters for scale, it's why he's dressed in bright primary colors while Morag and Zeke are in darker ones.

You are comparing a side quest to a main story. What side quests did XC have? kill 9 wolves, find x in the middle of nowhere? Only 1 quest was good which was the bana one, and that's nothing spectacular either.

I've been playing it for a bit and it suffers the same issue every other entry has, it doesn't get interesting until chapter 5&6.
Monolith really ought to work on that and make the post-intro chapters interesting for their next title instead of making you play a gimped version of the actual game.

If you want more fuel for possibility, after years of it being fine, a couple of days ago some unofficial uploads of the soundtrack were taken down.
Rip listening to black tar in the shower.

I hope there's never an X2. Just port it and add something at the end so it doesn't end in a cliffhanger, then work on something new

XB1's quests are kind of underrated. Actually dealing with them (finding the quests in the first place, locating quest objectives, finding where the fuck the NPC who gave you the quest in the first place went so you can turn the quest in) was a total shitshow and a huge pain in the ass if you didn't use a guide, but the storylines were fun enough.
It's been years since I last played the game and I remember a lot of the little NPC storylines like the nopon and homs brothers in Colony 9, the old woman who has you collect the pieces of armor from her son who died trying to climb the Bionis, the Emmy Leater quests, the little girl in Alcamoth who's waiting for her dead dad to come home and then she turns into a Telethia after Mechonis Core, etc.
It's not like the Bana questline was the only interesting piece of side content in the game.

That's been happening with a bunch of Nintendo soundtracks, not just Xenoblade.

One of the most amazing bits of Black Humor I can think of comes from Makna forest.
There's the one questline where a male nopon feels he has to impress a girl he's into by diving into this sacred pond from the upper echelons of the tree.
And the first thing that happens after he reveals his plan is Shulk foreseeing him fucking pancaked on the ground because he will mess the jump up.

Monolith Soft really needs to learn how to program party member AI that doesn't kill itself the second you give it a move that allows it to sacrifice its HP. It's amazing that after AI Shulk's stupidity with Battle Soul they let it happen with Lora's AI in Torna as well. (Even worse there, considering you can't unequip the art.)

>interfering with the meaning
Let's not pretend BLADE had a legitimate meaning in the plot. It was just xeno buzzword salad. And blue blood is just too on the nose to fly with an English audience. It essentially gives away the big plot twist Lao is so pissed off about that's supposed to be a secret to everyone.

>people still repeating these memes about healers
Nim, Cossette, Nia, Dahlia, and Ursula can all work in the hard content.

Obviously they're less efficient but you can use them if you want to. I personally fusion meme'd hard with Nim/Cosette and volcano blade combos for the retarded DoT it caused to beat a lot of shit.

I don't necessarily disagree but it absolutely does matter to change in universe terminology.

For all we know we're gonna end up with an Aegis/Holy Grail situation where XCX2 gives context to something that doesn't work with the new English name like in Torna.

I'd say one of those buzzwords showing up in the XB2 justifies calling the change a mistake. Even though it likely doesn't mean anything.

I really liked the mechs in X, but for some reason it felt like something was missing from them. I was excited to unlock the new models, I was excited to unlock flight, but yet it still felt empty. It didn't give me the same feeling that using Gears did, but that can probably be attributed to the combat being pretty lackluster.

For me it was just the music cutting away the great field themes. If they do end up porting X, hopefully they add in the option to turn off flight music so I can just zone out flying around the landscapes again.

X gets a lot of shit, but I really feel like a port would boost the popularity, tenfold. The Switch has a retardedly high user base in nipland, and in general I don't think XCX sold poorly to begin with. If anything, it was average, and met expectations.

The cliffhanger isn't about Elma, its about everyone already being dead. The Elma is an alien twist is revealed before the end.

Fag, Monolith games transcend genres

The people trying to snatch the Conduit, but we don't know jack shit about them. I assume it'll be relevant in XC3, but if not, I guess they were just nameless invaders who wanted the Conduit's power.

Bunch of rebels who were against whatever space government shenanigans was going on, so they attacked the beanstalk. Plot device that don't matter in 2 since they're nothing more than a catalyst for Klaus commencing his experiment when he did

Fan theories says they're Conduit cultists that want to stop mankind from exploiting its technology.

That would mean a spinoff like X.

Alright so hear me out

Xenoblade X is actually just the memories of Klaus before he became a God

It took an incredible amount of time for the actual transition to happen to everything that happened in the "Mira" universe was just his own human imagination

That would be a stupid fucking fast development cycle, there is no way monolith has a non-shovelware game ready to release this year. They didn't even get all of their people back from Smash until the beginning of this year.

Monolith Soft will officially reveal that Astral Chain is canon to the Xenoblade universe.

Yeah, and my uncle works for Nintendo and he said Malosblade DLC is coming for Xenoblade 2, with a new, harder Challenge Mode that lets you unlock Fei Fong Wong.

There's an alleged direct leak in another thread that claims it's a port of X but ends in an X2 teaser. It's something to remember.
This might mean we can use any mention of Xenoblade content in a leak to narrow down what's true or false.

>wanting Xenowarriors after the shitshow that was FE Warriors
enjoy the entire XB2 cast being playable with only Shulk, Fiora and Elma from other games

That's because the guy in charge had zero passion for the franchise and didn't know anything. He had to be told to put in Lucina for crying out loud.
If they actually want to make a Xeno warriors it'll be good.

Play Astral Chain then

FEWarriors shit roster is primarily because of IS pushing nu-FE and FE having fucking huge rosters of characters. Look at Hyrule Warriors and it covered far more game because the casts were smaller and they had more freedom to go for niche picks.

Xeno only has three games plus maybe the Magdalene twins from Saga to pick from, with the 20ish character starting roster before dlc they can get in most major party members and villains rather easily from XB1/2 along with a few from X and then expand on it with dlc for Torna and to flesh out the existing picks.

>not Daboth

I hope they make some serious improvements if they're going to bother porting XCX, the text size was absurd

>took monosoft two years to release XC2
>people still claiming ITT they won't have a new game out this december
I BELIEVE

Xenoblade Chronicles X with censored content restored, Japanese audio added, and the option to activate flight on double jump only added.

the wii had dragon quest x
if the switch can't play some sort of mmo I'd legitimately be shocked

If they were developing a new xeno game and it would be released this december, you would know about it by this point.

But that means it wasn't Elma.

>People are assuming she meant musou but it could be a lot of thinge
Possibly but the one thing jim is known for loving that marks him out compared to most western reviewers is musou games

He's the only big name one who plays and reviews them consistently.

This is why I wanted FE Warriors. Now it's why I don't want XenoWarriors.

But Xeno is way too problematic for him.

musou fans...? I know people who don't like musou love to go on rambling how they can't comprehend how people could like musou, but please just accept that a lot of people like the genre regardless.

But FE Warriors was fantastic, one of the better musou games. Only dumb oldfags don't like it because the roster didn't include characters from irrelevant games they didn't even play.

it would have more cutscenes where my favorite catgirl and the other morons stand still and dryly talk about the Lore behind some stupid high entia statue that an intern modeled and put in an empty field

He called XC1 great, said X was really good, and called XC2 good but said it had a lot of little annoyances and that he rarely was in the mood for it even though he enjoyed playing it.

He's absolutely a fan of the trilogy, less so 2 than the rest, so a Xenowarriors would appeal to him.

Its Yea Forums's new buzzword so prepare yourself to see it a lot in the clming weeks as it spreads out

60fps is mandatory for shooters and DMC-style action games
But in Xenoblade and many jrpg you enjoy the environment more on higher resolutions.
you'd have to play in 400p to reach 60fps on switch, docked.

So just another variation of semen cerebrum. Is it wrong that it isn't the insults themselves that annoy, but how low effort they are? You can't banter with this crap.

Oh fuck it's happening bros

This. So much this.

Capcom and SEGA have a plethora of old and new IPs they can use like Asura's Wrath, Golden Axe, Breath of Fire, Bayonetta and so on.
Namco is a bit more tricky since its major new non-licensed IPs of recent (Lost Reavers, Rise of Incarnates, Inversion to name a few) haven't managed to be very extatic and only Dark Souls sticked out. They have some old classics they haven't used yet like Time Crisis, so who knows.

Also, Klonoa was only in Namco x Capcom.

every single team at monolith outside the xeno team hasn't released anything lately

When is it happening? I really want a Switch port of XCX even though I don’t have a switch and I only just bought this WiiU for this very game and maybe BOTW.
Also if you got any ideas on what to do with this obsolete console gimme, any games? Can I hack this to access Wii games?

XCX isn't getting ported, at least not by monolithsoft. They have too much on their hands

How difficult is it to port a Wii U game to the switch, isn’t that what BOTW was? That was also by monolithsoft, right?
Well, anyway, if it’s not going to happen I might as well savour XCX to the very last drop.

botw was made simultaneously for both systems so no. XCX also has a lot of stuff integrated into the gamepad of the wiiu

>twitter.com/_saitomasatsugu

Saitoma retweeted it too

honestly, XBX wasn't that good, a bunch of ideas that were half formed and then the game ends prematurely.
but a sequel could be great, and monoltih has been going hard recently with their work so probably

I finished the entire game almost exclusively using the Wii U gamepad only. It's a non-issue.

It had issues for sure, but it I can confirm that the game was indeed good.

they do this for the retards and then put in super bosses and dlc modes for the people who understand the gameplay

That's what I mean it has info on the pad that would have to be remade

Not that much I would say. About the same as BOTW. It could easily be turned into the mining/surveying map with a press of the switch’s screen if it is a touch screen.
Playing XCX in the gamepad, that was the only annoying part in the game for me, having to switch maps constantly and waiting for ages for the main menu to load only to realize you had to press the switch screens button.

I meant that I was using the gamepad screen only. Literally nothing would have to be remade.

The Wii U was a true bedside console. If you got tired of looking at the big screen and just wanna get comfy under the blankets, just switch to gamepad mode.

Direct is ruined, stop speculating everyone go home, either it's Rex for Smash or this fag is now the series permanent artist, both are pretty disappointing.

Just like the Switch now. The Switch is literally just the Wii U, but even more refined and convenient.

>this fag is now the series permanent artist
>hating on saitom
faggot

Sorry but I just can’t see it as refined or convenient if we’re looking at joycons. Shits heavy and the button layout is seriously a step down from the wii u Pro or gamepad.

His shit is blatant sameface even if a lot of his designs are actually pretty good, he's fine for a one off, or even a 2 off if they are the same world/story, but I don't want him to be the series artist, I'd rather Xenoblade change each game and X just keep using Tanaka. I'm also fine with successive games reusing the old characters art style if they reappear.

Monster Games ported Xenoblade to 3DS and took it from a one screen game to two screen, so it's not like an outside studio couldn't do the reverse

I don't know about that. The Wii U gamepad was already kinda heavy for a gamepad for obvious reasons. The Switch with joycons attached feel to me just about the same weight, even if the Switch might be technically a few grams heavyer. Doesn't make a difference to me.
Button placement really is personal preference.

It didn't really show on the models so I don't really care how sameface his art is.

Takahashi is too insistent on spicing things up each entry to have permanent artist beside Kunihiko Tanaka.

Sorry but I can't take anyone seriously who is still talking about sameface when it comes to Japanese artists. Literally every single one of them is sameface because of the drawing technicues used for anime. It's such a pointless complaint when 95% of the artists use sameface.

I suppose we can agree to disagree. Except on that button layout. It wasn’t just layout they messed up, the sticks just feel worse and floaty and the no dpad “issue”. I’m legitimate considering on getting the DQ slime controller because it’s symmetrical, has the dpad and is peak comfy from what it looks like

First thing I noticed about the game is how sameface everyone is, I'm just glad that they had guest artist do Blades as well as other NPCs because it really helped break things up. Only problem I had with that was I thought that Torna was a completely different race of beings because of their faces, but then Mikhail

That seems like it would be the case but perhaps they attribute a lot of Xenoblade 2's success to it's very stock anime character designs.

I literally never felt that way for Tanaka

>That seems like it would be the case but perhaps they attribute a lot of Xenoblade 2's success to it's very stock anime character designs.
Or they're still not confident they can handle more complex designs in 3D without fucking them up which is also disappointing.

Yeah, Nia, Brighid, Poppi, Zeke, Morag, etc are all samefaces. Right.

I'd disagree with that entirely on the fact that there were so many guest character designs that all looked good in 3d.

More or less.
>screenwriter
Oh no.

>Yeah, Nia, Brighid, Poppi, Zeke, Morag, etc are all samefaces. Right.
Nia, Pyra/Mytha, Rex and Morag are all sameface, and also look like the same designs he's done as guest work on Fire Emblem or Expelled from Paradise. Zeke and Brighid aren't but Zeke has an actual fucking nose so that already separates him from 90% of Saito's designs.

Did anyone else notice that their eyeballs move back into their head when their eyes close.
