where is mech fiora
I like the new art style, it looks better than XC2 too. Hopefully there is even more locations to explore, along with even more Xeno goodness
Won't be shown in trailers except for the launch trailer and in Japanese cm's because they don't give a fuck about spoilers.
BORN IN A WORLD OF STRIFE
Doesn't look as soulless as X and 2, so I supposed that's a plus.
I'm hoping this will give me the motivation to jump back into Xenosaga. It's so fucking dated
AGAINST THE ODDS
Post webm of Shulk fidgeting on the Bionis shoulder.
AGAINST THE ODDS
>Xenoblade 1 finally looks like a proper Xeno game
Nu-Fiora might rival Elly for sexiest Xeno girl now.
Xenosaga's flaws have nothing to do with age. There are SNES games that are more playable than that shitty plot dump.
WE CHOOSE TO FIGHT
AHHHH IM GONNA NUT SHE LOOKS AMAZING
XB1 CHADS, XBX KINGS, AND XB2 NEWFRIENDS LET US REJOICE TOGETHER FOR WE GET A GREAT GAME MADE BETTER NOW
no but really thank you xb2 fags you guys getting onboard made this possible & x fags I'm sure your day will come eventually
Not too bad actually.
A good midway point between the brevity and functionality of the designs in 1 and the Tales of designs in 2.
They updated the faces to look modern and in line with 2, yet kept the simple style which I always loved. 10/10 - this is how you do it!
God I'm glad I didnt sell my Switch!
Melia, you're a good friend.
Should I Youtube the rest and jump into 2. I estimate I'm 70% done.
Where's this from? This looks really good desu
And where's Melia?
I like that a lot better than his XC2 incarnation. More restrained with the uguu eyes.
They did it.
came here to make this comment
No Xenosaga 2 is literally the worst one.
You should Play 1 fully and enjoy it and then enjoy 3.
>>Xenoblade 1 finally looks like a proper Xeno game
I seriously hope this isn't copy pasted into every thread now, because people got so triggered by the "muh anime" shitposters.
Are we gonna have to bring back Seven?
Post your HOTTEST XENO takes
I think pic related is not only the best Kos-Mos has ever looked but is also the only time she's not been extremely bland visually
>You should Play 1 fully and enjoy it
But I'm not. No exploration and no music
>Hunting for quest NPCs in XC1
FUCK
DON'T MAKE ME DO IT AGAIN
Melia cucked by a robot in 1080p
Rook forward to it.
There's no way they won't fix that.
Fiora's fate is about as much of a surprise these days as Luke Skywalker's parentage.
MONOLITH WON
based and thighpilled as usual
You're right though.
Kos-Mos looks like generic robowaifubait #1663735 most of the time. Saga 2 and the see through components were the most interesting she's been visually.
Literally just look at their schedule.
>Using quite possibly the most 1:1 original xenogears art for the characters
God I can't wait for this game. And whatever new Xeno games they plan on making. Here's hoping we get Xenoblade X using this artstyle too.
We shouldn't even be surprised anymore. I love MonolithSoft
>people are still surprised by skindentation
really niggers?
Fiora a shit.
Melia a win.
RIP Melia
she's so fucking pretty bros
just like elly shions art
FEATHER
PUBES
>Xenoblade X using this artstyle
They really did Tanaka's design proper this time around. Updated X models would make me rock solid, but I'll take this for now.
Its not about being surprised, its that they improved Fiora except it was an upgrade racked up to 110% percent up
X2 really helped them get better at translating art into 3d models. Probably thanks to all the different artists they worked with.
YESSSSSSSS CANT WAIT FOR ENHANCED PC (YUZU) VERSION AAHH
I wish they'd let me pre order already
KOS-MOS wasn't generic when Xenosaga was new.
In fact she was in multiple otaku magazines and given constant praise for her original design.
If anything, she made the design generic since a lot of modern sci-fi anime girls are directly inspired from KOS-MOS's design.
>Reliving the top of prison island but in HD
YES NIGGER YES
God I want to fuck Blake Ritson's voice. I'm so glad I get to hear him every now and then as Aymeric in FF XIV.
At first I thought it was weird that Alvis had that weirdly robotic voice, but it all made sense at the end.
>my favorite game again
>restored content
>everything looks nice
>that main theme
>playing comfy in bed without the terrible 3DS " one grass every 30meters" version
I wasn't so sure when you guys shilled the Switch but now you got me. You got me good.
IN 1080p!
We're going home, lads.
youtu.be
So much good shit in this game.
>restored content
What's that mean? Are they adding cut areas like the Shoulder?
It's there in the trailer
yes dude, watch the fucking trailer.
I only played the original game one time years ago, so I don't remember. Are we sure that's it, though?
I hope their dressed is still changed when i change their armor in the new version. I for god sake i wish its not censored.
they literally showed bionis shoulder in the trailer
>This scene, but with proper facial reactions
Should be fun and horrifying to watch.
Shoulder was in the trailer.
how can melia compete?
this remaster is so fucking soulless but because it's a nintendo game, this will be ignored
Calm down, my dudes. I played the game one time through back in, like, 2014.
wait so is whoever did this the permanent character artist at monolith now?
It is, the part with the Bionis Shoulder shows Shulk in different clothes.
ruined
>soulless
what??
It's not soulless. The original character models looked like shit. New ones are miles better.
>Filename
>Not youtube.com
Definitely. 2's modelling was a step up and the experience paid off here. If a remake of 1 already looks this good, then the future of Xeno's looking beautiful.
Of course they'll keep it in. Otherwise Sharla won't even be useful as cutscene eye candy any more.
HD Dickson will be nice
I want to go back to this time of life
I love and shill the first game more than anything and anyone, but the lower is the literal opposite of soulless. That's literally how you do it right
For once a Xeno game where the characters don't look like creepy fucking weeb dolls
Do you think they will animate the scene where Melia rapes Shulk? hahaha
Sorry I can't hear you over the cheers for no longer having to deal with eyes that are just textures.
Nintendo know from XB2 that most of the people who would potentially buy this game are weebs so they had to make the artstyle more anime. Blame the consumers.
All good bro. The excitement is still riding is all. Wondering how much more will get added.
It's Tanaka who has always been part of the franchise since Xenogears, but they finally figured out how to get his style into 3D and make it look good.
I guess people who actually liked how xc1 looked are a minority. Understandable of course but sad nonetheless.
it looked bad before, now it's even worse
>wake up
>check my usual sites and places while eating breakfast
>everyone is partying like its new years for some reason
>capslock everywhere
>open steam
>19 new messages and 2 profile posts
JFC, this broke the JRPG scene it seems.
I couldn't be happier though. Fucking finally!
no way this is tanaka
>I guess people who actually liked how xc1 looked are a minority.
???? in all the years I've seen more people say they liked the look, than the opposite. Only with 2 there was this whole new "muh anime" debate coming up due to shitposters.
But before I've really seen most people liking the simple designs as a change up from usual overdesigned JRPG characters.
Are we getting perfect works?
Anime art looks like shit in 3d half the time. Especially with tanaka it seems you either get potatoe face or pan faced alien gook like here. Uncanny valley shit.
Liking the style of the original game is not the same as the moron coming into these threads to pretend that a Xeno game using Tanaka is some kind of art crisis.
It is. Monolithsoft cracked the code and finally figured out how to model his shit.
>Are we getting Perfect Works
Hopefully.
Xenoblade 2 and Torna look that way, and there's things in X that allude to Perfect Works too.
This Xenoblade 1 remake feels like it's going to serve to tie Xenoblade 1 into Takahashi's Perfect Works reboot that he restarted with Xenoblade 2.
MONADO THE FOURTH
>all the cutscenes in glorious hd
>models in glorious hd
>my dick in glorious hd
obviously not true, this is nothing like tanaka's art in 2 which was less than 2 years ago
Thats true though
how ill they handle the scene at the end of the game? will it just be choked up to fragmented aegis memories?
looks more like a redesigned 2 honestly
>enemy gets the upper hand
youtu.be
can we please have that fixed at least?
>HD Mecha Fiora ass
Her expression actually matches her voice in that scene now
>new fans will now get to play XB1
I have a feeling that threads are about to get a lot worse instead of better
Looks like a mongo caveman in both
Of course they will. Better enjoy them while they last. Also the console warrior faggots will shitpost the game to death.
>some xc1 porn finally
it's about time
It’s happening Meliabros. They know the fans loved her best.
Actual facial animations confirmed!
BLOSSOM DANCE
Plot twist. Xenoblade Definitive is a THIRD universe created from when Klaus pushed the button that heavily resembles Xenoblade 1.
The plot will completely go off the rails and deviate from Xenoblade 1 halfway through and establish that it's actually a Xenoblade 3 disguised as a remake of Xenoblade 1.
We get to learn more about Alvis/Ontos, Galea/Meyneth, see a third side of Zanza/Klaus/Architect
Logos respawns in this third universe and that's where the plot begins to deviate fro the original.
>I get to see a new model of Melia getting cucked all over again.
Xeno started with Blade 1 for most people, and it's used Tanaka less often than it has anyone else.
>XB1 was just done on the fly by armor designers
>XBX was Tanaka and also shitposted to death by literally fucking EVERYONE
>XB2 was Saito who people either liked more than the previous or hated
People take it for granted that XB1 set a stronger imprint than any other Xeno game and that it really did bring a ton of publicity to the series. It's unlikely we'd even be at this point if not for a combination of Project Rainfall and Smash Bros.
I think that's a completely new outfit.
How many Xeno- games does this madlad wish to make anyways?
Kino
do you think the Xenoblade 2 characters will show up?
I found her to be pretty boring.
Does this game have any skimpy outfits like in X?
I want to dress Fiora like she belongs on a street corner
They'll redo it to correct conflicts.
they fucking knew what they were doing with this trailer shot
I have a feeling they're going to completely rewrite Xenoblade 1's rushed ending since Xenoblade 2's ending was connected to Xenoblade 1's.
I hope not, I hated half of that XB2 cast.
I guess I have to use Chuggaaconroy as a guide again
I just want a game with alvis as the protagonist or antagonist
It's perfectly legitimate strategy to play the entire game in swimsuits.
All of Sharla's outfits turn her into fanservice central. Fiora too.
Isn't it sad, Melia?
Yes.
wow they finally got the character models down
I want to fuck this unga bunga auto-attack machine.
God please no. I like 2, but don’t ruin 1 by shoehorning them in as fan service or whatever.
>Nu-Fiora might rival Elly for sexiest Xeno girl now.
Sexiest Xeno girl coming through
OLD GAME GOOD
NEW GAME BAD
Amirite, bro? Up top!
>surprised
You mean aroused
>Shulk vs. Malos solo battle
They'll probably add some extra dialogue to tie into X2's world better.
MELIACHADS RISE UP
SHE WILL WIN THE SHULKBOWL THIS TIME
Wait bros, do you think they'll fix Melia's AI so she can be in the party without needing to be used by the player?
no lol
What if it's a harem end like Rex
Can't wait for XB Land of Challenge. Shulk seen Alrest now for Rex to see Bionis.
>going to have to buy this game a third time just like Hyrule Warriors
Fiora's worth it though.
To the tune of a new Amalthus remix.
Enjoy your useless buffs.
This makes me happy, I always feared XB1 would go the way of Persona 1 & 2 and get forgotten because the newer games were more popular.
I'm gonna miss the late PS1 graphics too but bottom looks way better.
>Xenogears, Xenosaga, Xenoblade X, Xenoblade 2 all have loli party members
>Xenoblade 1 doesn't
They're going to introduce a loli party member in this remake
Or revert Melia into a loli
Based and Meliapilled
>Malos Monado for Shulk
It's gonna fucking happen and it'll be the first step to playable Malos
God I hope so.
If they all care for each other, they all deserve to be happy.
Come on now, user. That starlight kick isn't gonna cast itself.
Yes. It's clear to me. This remaster is both a cash in on 2's success and Takahashi taking a chance to make minor retcons and changes in 1 that make it mesh more closely to the narrative in 2 in preparation for 3, similar to how he did Xenosaga 1+2 and used that chance to significantly unfuck 2's story.
MONOLITH
HIRE
THIS
MAN
I want a secret super boss version of Jin with a remix of his baller theme.
you think they'll fix shulk's ai so that you can play as any other character?
>Rebooting Perfect Works
>This time with comfortable funding
He can't be stopped.
>shortened sleaves
lmao dude look at everything else he's wearing and Melia, those are 2 completely new costumes for them
this would be the most redic trilogy in existence
Or you could just run Melia Fiora Dunban and only bring out Shulk when you need to micromanage Monado Arts.
>Fiora's Definitive robutt
cant wait for 2020 bros, the future is bright
Oh no, they made Reyn hot!
He can only defeat himself. He has this cycle where he has a successful game (Gears/Blade 1/Blade 2) then at the peak of his maniacal sensation of power he makes a grandly overambitious nipjank game (Xenosaga 1/Blade X/ ???)
We'll see if he can self-overcome.
She looks so freaking good.
Oh boy, I can't wait for Egil to be an awful villain again.
Shiet nigga. Show me Sharla already
Seeing how Lora does the same dumbass shit that Shulk did in 1, doubtful.
I'm not so sure, the world and lore is so dense you really need the slower pace of actually playing the game and soaking in the world, reading the database, talking to npcs etc. Just suck it up, use turbo mode in dungeons and combat if you're emulating. Combat and dungeons get better with each version but the story and cinematics are the best in ep I.
Shulk's hair is too blonde and his skin is too pale, other than that it looks great
but we mustn't be careless
>they’re using the XB2 dlc models and shading
Fucking based
we talked about it all last summer but it’s astounding that we’re here now
Hopefully Elma and Rex and Pyra get a cameo
Will this be the start of smug Fiora posting?
I'm really looking forward to seeing the cutscenes with touched up animation and actual facial animation.
>Has the cut content
>Finally complete
>Even at it's worst nobody will ever talk about XC2 as being the best ever again
Pretty good, now we just the complete version of X
Yeah, though I kind of liked the XB2 version for how old school and close to Tanaka’s old Style it looked
>satorl marsh in hd
>valak mountain in hd
>central factory in fucking hd
2020 can't come any sooner, holy shit.
>do you think the Xenoblade 2 characters will show up?
I like 2, but I really hope they don't do that.
Everyone looks great so far, just hope Dunban turns out alright.
Id love to see a moment similar to XB2’s at the end where you hear Rex talking to Malos, and maybe some XBX reference
what a fucked based as fuck day this is.
plus:
>DxM demo
>Deadly Premonition is back
couldnt be better
>Hopefully there is even more locations to explore
They literally showed a whole new area in the reveal trailer user.
Imagine this.

>doesn't retcon Xenoblade 1 because Xenoblade Definitive is a third universe that just looks like Xenoblade 1
>ONTOS VERSUS LOGOS
I’m surprised they didn’t rebuild X instead. That game felt like it needed more dev time.not that I’m complaining, I’m buying this day 1.
>Characters actually have noses
Instantly better than XC2's artstyle.
FUCK YOU, i wanted the XCX port.
I wouldn't be surprised if they let you choose this time, similar to Pyra/Mythra. Poor Nia though.
But we get to hear Alvis's sexy voice again
Perfect Works user. google it.
>bionis shoulder
>new area means new music
After a decade we can finally go there lads, whats it even gonna be like?
Fiora needed an update because dear god she did not look good in the original game.
>similar to pyra/mythra
so based shulk gets the harem ending, I approve.
I'm optimistic. I love his 'jank' games but lessons were learned relatively speaking. This remake will hopefully reflect that going forward.
>his skin is too pale
He's a fucking dead man walking my dude
While they’re at it, they can add a new waifu to the party. I mean Altus always does that shit.
If all they have to do is polish up the graphics and restore some cut content, it's a lot less effort than unfucking a flawed game.
Will this fix the fanbase?
>played through XC on the Wii for the 1st time a few weeks ago
>it was a good game with a lot going for it
>but it had some noticeable performance dips
>and the models looked like they were from the PS2
This game is going to be fucking gorgeous, I didn't think I'd ever be excited for fucking Xenoblade.
Quick rundown?
This is great but I think I really got my fill with the 500 or so hours I sank into the game that i dont need to play it for at least another decade. What a pickle.
Soul, Soulless
Why is he a shota?
Fiora's got a smug ara ara look to her.
I wonder how much more fucked up gadot will look between his eye getting gouged out and his arm totally fucked up.
Xenoblade 1 had quite a bit of cut content, including a complete area in the game's files that is possible to walk around via hacking, but it had no enemies or NPCs. They showed that area in the trailer.
So it will be more lewd when you put him in his undies for the remaining 90 hours of the game.
she couldn't
>not maining Melia with Riki and Fiora
dont put Melia on AI because shes too fucking fun to play. Too bad I dropped Shulk right away cause I never used all his Monado skills
He also spends too much time in the lab.
I'll only buy it if The Colonel and his giant mustache survive.
takahashi focusing on the important things like always
At least they don't look like a texture slapped on a polygon for a face.
As long as you dont't involve nazi frogs. That shit is pure cancer
We never had a machina rep in the party

Looks great, thanks for comparison image, here's your (You).
How do you retards even find Xeno games? They're all "weeb".

Keep jerking off to your "waifus" weeb.
Can't wait to see my boy
Because it looks like shit, your meme artist is old and busted, and in my personal opinion, was never that good to begin with.
Let's not talk crazy here.
>eyes are literally stickers
why did people like this again?
Were you not here for the constant KOS-MOS threads over a decade ago?
Were you not here for the Melia versus Fiora posting in Xenoblade threads for the first few months?
Were you not here for the "I'm an Elma person"?
How do you people even find this franchise?
Anime Hulk Hogan is gonna look so weird in the new cutesy artstyle.
>Because it looks like shit
How can we know when it's never been properly adapted to 3d?
tanaka's it literally the most iconic artstyle in anime history, Kos-mos is the absolute peak perfection of human engineering you absolute gaylord fag
Do you think they'll record new dialogue for the game?
The rest was too good, so everybody just ignored it.
>cutesy
?
>Black Liver Beans
isnt that the garbage that only spawns in Mechonis?
A little something called gameplay.
This is incorrect, Dunban's best armor is his basic light armor look. Naked Dunban crumples the second he's targeted by an undodgeable or Ether attack, and the bonus stats are basically no different from stats from gems anyway
Believe it or not, this was one of the better-looking games on the wii when it came to "realistic" character models. The standard wasn't too high.
Reyn's face gets me everytime
Son, you weren't even alive when the original Xenoblade came out.
>tanaka's it literally the most iconic artstyle in anime history
I mean, I'm pretty sure that's Tezuka
JP, yes.
English maybe but with some recasts (like Mel's VA)
I hope not, because I doubt they'll get Melia's VA again since she's working a TV series right now. I hope they dont redub her completely simply to add Bionis Shoulder scenes with everyone. That said if they got her back to do that I'd be more than happy for it
>it's never been properly adapted to 3d
Nah, it's just so shit you think it wasn't probably adapted.
That's guaranteed, they added at least one new area.
It was Bionis Interior shit. Stupid hard to find, at least with Rainbow Slugs there was a semi-reliable spawn on the Arm and I think you only needed 2, but BLB's were just tedious as all shit to find
Shulk gets his original English voice actor back, however they replace all of Shulk's yells and heated dialogue with Rex's voice actor and then abruptly cut back to Shulk's voice actor when Shulk's talking normally.
You can't just take a 2D drawing and make a 3D model out of it. Some artstyles just don't work across mediums and only work in one. The real flaw of this series was switching to 3D in the first place.
Oh my god, I am so excited. I played Xenoblade so many times and I absolutely despised the second game apart from the music and some quality of life improvements. God, I couldn't finish 2 because of the intense waifu shit and excess anime shit. I was surprised they didn't remake XCX though everyone thought that it was going to be ported
These are British actors. They all still do radio shows and other voiceover shit after they become famous.
You monster.
To be honest, Melias VA is the most forgettable of them all. Even Sharla had better lines.
Will they finally make Sharla a viable character in the party?
See, nobody EVER uses that excuse to defend other artists, Tanakashitters always use it as crutch.
>and excess anime shit
Tell me how I know you started the franchise with XB1. Gears was less a story and more a "Takahashi takes everything he likes in anime and throws it in a blender."
OH
What if this remake gives us the party member we were meant to have?
So let's address the elephant in the room: what will be the price? My money is on a very jewish $60.
How about we stop responding to the sperglord shitting his pants about an artist who has literally never been the subject of controversy before.
same, i hope they dont go full retard
>What if this remake gives us the party member we were meant to have?
A loli party member? Because that's the main thing Xenoblade 1 lacks that every other xeno game has.
t. buttblasted animemer
We took back the series, now fuck off and enjoy your sloppy seconds in the second wave of Smash DLC.
I hope they remake all the synth instruments with live versions
The synth strings in particular are HORRENDOUS

>all of those armor sets in HD
>sharla's tits in HD
take my money
£0 for me baby
Only port I'm gonna support is Wonderful 101
We finally did it, Juju bros.
That'll be 60 doubloons, gaijin.
BUT MUH JUNG!!
But made a valid point.
There's a slightly grimy aesthetic that the colonists have in Xenoblade.
It's kinda adds a bit to their overall look.
They're scavengers who have to build their own belongings with whatever mechon or bionis scraps are lying around.
I liked her royal pomp, it felt like it fit the character a lot. There's probably people that can match it but my bias will probably think its not as good
>an artist who has literally never been the subject of controversy before
Tanakafags unironically believe this.
If you think he did wrong after XC2's Shulk you're a dicksucker.
They're not grimy, they're SD.
>we took back the series
>took back
>literally 1 game
>1 game that's still extremely anime regardless
Hah.
I mean why are people complaining that they updated the models?
you're smoking dick, it's Toriyama.
Literally anyone can replicate his style because of how simple his designs are, it's why Toriyama rip-offs are so popular on deviantart.
Gears was a retarded FF7 ripoff that deserved to crash and burn.
There's a reason nobody gave half a shit about this series before Blade.
you know the game is good when it actually makes you like juju..
Holy shit that Fiora has A HUGE set of jugs
Will appreciate handholding and some replies as I am too shitfaced atm to research
are they adding any new content or it's 1/1 port? Xeno is one of my favorite franchises ever
>1 game that's still extremely anime regardless
Wrong, it doesn't have an anime artstyle so it's not anime.
Will they up the movement speed? Will they at least give us a permanent buff akin to the Deeds in 2? Wasting gem slots on Quick Steps was some bullshit
That grimy aesthetic you're talking about is low res textures. Same way N64 games have SOUL compared to remakes.
they are adding new content. new area was confirmed in the trailer. (bionis shoulder i believe?)
Are you retarded? Xenogears and Xenosaga 1 broke a million sales while Xenoblade 1 still has yet to do that.
Xenosaga even spawned its own anime series and made a ton of sales with non-vidya merchandise.
>Mechonis Field with XB2’s graphics
>See, nobody EVER uses that excuse to defend other artists
I use it for plenty of artists (the one I can think of most notably is Demonbane's art compared to the anime or even simply to the game's animated cutscenes which are far lower quality than the character art), and it's also why I'm against the idea of adapting comic books into live action. Some things only work in one medium.
>We took back the series
XB2 going full pandering kinda says otherwise.
It took me until this picture to realize Nopans are Chu-Che expies. Man, I r dum.
there's trailer?! pelase link user!!!
But why was Takahashi denied his Perfect Works then?
God, imagine if he were the protag, that would be the dumbest choice they could ever make, making some dumb naive kid with no real character the MC.
Other way around, Xenogears was presented to be FF7 but Square told Takahashi it was too sci-fi and too dark and made him work on his own game instead.
I always thought everyone in the original looked kinda ugly but they look nice now. I still don't know what exactly is the difference other than resolution tho
>XB2 going full pandering
Wait until the XC remake comes out, nobody will give a shit about XC2 now that the superior game is on switch.
I'm not referring to the resolution, only the colors.
The new version of shulk's face looks significantly brighter.
But they left all the other colors nearly the same.
They have new models.
I love you user *kiss*
>Xenoblade 1 finally looks like a proper Xeno game
So fucking dogshit? Gears and the first Xenoblade are literally the only Xeno game to have decent artstyles. (XBX would be fine if it weren't for the awful faces)
I don't understand how people prefer this generic anime artstyle over the original XBC's look.
Because Square had no faith in the game which is why they kept cutting its budget and pushing forward the deadline. The game was outright unfinished and the blame pretty squarely lays at Squaresoft's feet. He only got to make the game because much like Yoko Taro, he was friends with someone higher up in the company.
>while Xenoblade 1 still has yet to do that
It will, there's no way it can't, the Switch and Smash signal boost made XC2 sell a million, and XC1 will beat that.
It's probably a deliberate choice. I always thought he was too bronzed for someone who was supposed to be a nerdy shut-in in a sweater. Reyn is more obviously darker than him now.
In their eyes, "Xeno" means generic anime, the series has to copy old anime and never try anything unique or it's not good.
His color seems to be consistent with later versions of him like with Smash & XC2. I think its the intended look.
Budgeting and time issues with Xenogears and it unfortunately didn't perform as well as initially expected to warrant a sequel. Plus Square wanted most of Xenogears team to work on Final Fantasies instead so the Xenogears team said "Fuck you" and went to go work on Xenosaga as Monolith and continue Perfect Works.
Xenosaga was initially a success and in some ways it still is. In Japan it's still considered the face of Xeno. The reason why Xenosaga failed was because Bandai Namco gave Xenosaga 2 to a less experienced team and forced Takahashi to work on a different game. Xenosaga 2 ended up being awful and thus didn't sell well. The series had to end with Xenosaga 3, despite being as great as 3 was, because Xenosaga 2 did irreparable damage to the series in popularity, plot and sales.
He's rebooting Perfect Works starting with Xenoblade 2.
We know. You've been screaming about it for hours now.
>XBX would be fine if it weren't for the awful faces
The faces would've been fine if they applied some fucking cel shading to the models instead of leaving them as-is. If anything that should be a standard of anime games, imagine what dothack GU would look like if the models weren't cel-shaded.
It doesn't look like bog standard weebshit, actually has some grittiness to it.
No since you spoonfed me, we're more than friends, we're eternally bound by user-bond
Generic and good > Unique and ugly.
Sorry buddy.
>Plus Square wanted most of Xenogears team to work on Final Fantasies instead
It wasn't even that. Much like FF9, they were siphoning money from the Gears project to make that godawful movie. It's why both of those games were incredibly underbudget.
The models in XBX are fine, it's literally just the faces on a few characters that look bad.
Only play this on 250 hours then.
They look like 3d models that are only half-finished, like extra textures were supposed to be added but never were.
They look like dolls.
The best JRPG ever gets a remaster, this couldn't be better.
guys don't spoil the twist for the zoomers :)
But real talk is this movie worth watching?
I mean that's relevant narrative-wise but it doesn't explain the non-human characters.
XBC1 was only "ugly" because of the limitations of the Wii. Something looking sharper doesn't make it inherently better.
I hope they make the side quests less soul-crushingly tedious. I love how it all connected together but man it was hard to keep going after awhile.
It better have dual audio.
Original Fiora > Mecha Fiora >>>>>>>>>> that Fiora
I remember that chest
Does anyone have that image of Chad Elma and Chad Rex laughing at Virgin Shulk for not being a true Xeno game?
I want to remake it but with Shulk being a chad while Chad Elma and Chad Rex finally welcome him home.
>is this movie worth watching?
No. Visually it still holds up really well despite being a CGI movie from 2001, but the movie has literally nothing to do with Final Fantasy and isn't even a good movie.
>listening to the jap voices in this of all games
At least everyone is wearing pants still.
>Gears and the first Xenoblade are literally the only Xeno game to have decent artstyles.
What's wrong with Saga 1
The dub is good in this one, why listen to JP voices. That said I do like Vegeta Dunban.
>pyra
Homura
When he gonna get back to X?
Also is there a chance for Mechs?
The movie's watchable, but then again I haven't seen it since it came out on VHS.
time to bust out the XBC folder
i never got to shitpost during the initial release of XBC so excited for that
Anyone else feel that Shulk's hair color is a little too bright? The guy is pretty close to going super saiyan.
Is Alvis actually Ontos, as in the missing part of the Trinity Processor and thus brother to Homura and BASED BOI MALOS?
>listening to dubs of anime games
I mean JP is good, but this is one of the few rare cases when the dub is as good if not better than the original.
Oh my god that ass, I wonder if we're actually getting that.
Wakamoto Metal Face is breddy gud.
Most likely. I expect it to be confirmed when this releases.
That's just a given retcon that will happen immediately when we see Alvis.
Yes. If you have Shulk and Fiora as Blades, they'll have a bit of dialogue alluding to this.
Fiora's robutt is a miracle of the universe.
>Oh my god that ass
There's not much there.
user, you're really not going to get any traction trying to pretend this game isn't virtually universally considered preferable in English. That debate ended 7 years ago.
Wakamoto is always good
Shit, I meant Shulk and Mythra.
Calling it now, there's still gonna be barely any porn for Xenoblade 1. It's way easier to lewd Pyra and Mythra.
>no YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR INSOLENCE
I wonder if they'll dial that one back a bit. It probably played more times than any other individual voice clip in the game could ever have the chance to and the fight only lasts a few minutes
you shitting me? what are they saying?
>that ass
>that armor
>those swords
>those angel wings
I thought Yea Forums told me that Xenoblade 1 wasn't anime
>this game isn't virtually universally considered preferable in English.
By an audience that primarily only speaks english
Maybe they're remastering it too?
>people like it so much they copy it all the time
>N-NOT ICONIC
lmao cope
Okay, and? Go talk about it with Japanese people if you're not interested in what English speakers think.
Good god
do you think they’ll give her skindentation on the new models?
Fuuuck, it seems like a bit much, hope they don't change it.
The people who say that are secondaries who've never played the game and liars.
Xenoblade gets so over the fucking top with its ridiculousness.
youtube.com
NO user YOU DON'T GET IT, IF IT'S NOT THE NEPTUNIA KIND OF WEEBSHIT THEN IT DOESN'T COUNT AS ANIME! REFERENCES TO ANIME FROM THE 80s AND 90s ISN'T THE SAME!
homura is not latin you faggotron
it didn't happen till way later in the game, before that it was subtle.
Homura
>before that it was subtle.
No you just don't recognize the references because you haven't watched the same shows Takahashi has.
It has nothing to do with Japanese over English or something. It's simply because the commoner pig English accent is nails on a fucking chalk board to me. I originally played the EU release on the Wii because it had dual audio. I just can't stand commoner English.
Okay, nobody cares.
The dub was trash, only redditors liked it, Sub all the way, no matter what, no matter the game. Bonus points if you can speak japanese
It doesnt get super anime until the last act. Until then the anime is there but its presented in a way that I wouldnt really call subtle but it just kinda happens and you just go with the flow. The game is really a pretty basic shonen plot thats presented decently well. The final act beats you over the head with it but it doesnt take away from the overall experience
Based frog
>Not liking Reyn's 'allo guvna accent
Pleb.
No user that would make you in actuality the pleb, for preferring the accent of the poor and thus making you low-class in society.
Then why'd you respond in the first place. You clearly do.
I'm not a frog
Sure I can find the humor in it for a few moments. But after that I want to tear my ears off.
anyone else hoping for some new story?
xenoblade 2 hinted at something with alvis
It's pretty anime, it's just light on the waifu stuff that triggers the fuck out of certain people. Like with FE and Persona, nobody cares as much since their reputations are of dating sims.
I want a postgame where we can hang out with him and he'll read us stories.
I dont doubt for a second they'll fuck around with the space station scene as well as make Alvis a little more obviously related, but I'm mostly curious as to how the Shoulder will be put in
>anyone else hoping for some new story?
It's Xenoblade 3 disguised as a Xenoblade 1 remake, see We're going to get an Ontos versus Logos fight in Sirens that make Mechons look like cannon-fodder.
I think the shading on the old artstyle is a lot better but the faces look a lot better in the newer style
>it's just light on the waifu stuff that triggers the fuck out of certain people
Because they're weak and can't stand anything that is actually otaku pandering because they instinctively cringe at it instead of enjoying it. To which I say, why even play non-westaboo Jap games if that's the case?
I could see something like that but just as an end-game or 2nd play extra rather than the actual focus of the game.
Maybe. Shulk, Fiora, Dunban, Riki, Sharla, I could see new lines in English.
Reyn's VO has never done another voice gig since and Melia's is a big name now, so those two may be recast.
But I hope not, all the EN voices were pure kino, whoever decided to hire pure theater actors was genius.
Kinda hard to say that the old faces look better when it was literally a jpeg slapped onto a polygon
seriously, I can't believe this nu-Yea Forums
>Most kino song for one of the most kino scenes in the game
>Used only once
Poira
>make the putrid shit that wax Chronicles X and Chronicles 2
>lets release Chronicles 1 again to clear the absolute mess we made of this series
Honestly Nintendo should just remake their actual good games instead of constantly making new shit.
/boomerhumor/
Still though, I chuckled.
Poorfag
>bought this version and still haven't finished it
>new definitive edition announced shortly after
>lose all motivation to play it before the remake
It's Dragon Quest XI all over again. Why does nintendo keep doing this to me?
What if the game lets you choose? Might be cool.
I could never get into the game because of all the pointless fetch quests it shoves at you. How is it so hard to just make it so a game is designed around going from one plot point to the next without endless side content that is meaningless? I don't want to play a fucking MMO. Now I've never played XC2 as a I refuse to buy a switch so I don't know if it follows that trend, but every game in the franchise prior to Blade didn't have this problem.
they better do soemthing with the shouleder. I'm glad it's in but without some kidn of plot it's just going to be "that" part of the game like everything to do with getting to Archades in FFXII (aka a whole load of nothing)
MY EMPEROR, I'VE FAILED YOUUUUUU
in the original game the left shoulder data-wise is between that nopon village tree and the eryth sea beach area
im guessing they fit it in there and didn't have that magic ball transport idea originally, but im about to fly around a bit and see if i can figure it out a path
Is this an out of season April Fools joke? Why can't we get a remaster of good Xeno games instead? On the bright side Xenoblade 1 might actually be good now.
>yet kept the simple style which I always loved
Yeah wait until you put any of them in armor. Xenoblade designs stopped being simple the second you upgraded your equipment.
>THAT happens and they are all greyed out
Harada tried, it's not happening
It's been 4 years since that was released. You have noone to blame but yourself you mong.
It could also go after Prison Island, when you just fly straight to the hand. Or it could be a postgame or post-Mechonis area with an entirely new plot. Maybe Melia wants to find a place to move her people.
Ask Bamco. If the success of Blade and this maybe, but its Bamco so no.
only if they remade the trilogy with a consistent artstyle
They deserved it for making me wander around a fuckhuge zone looking for quest NPCs, combined with the Wii's awful draw distance.
I've only played XC2, does this game have SOUL?
Is the combat different enough from 2 that I can enjoy it and not have it feel like repetition?
Are there cute boys?
>On the bright side Xenoblade 1 might actually be good now
An HD remake doesn't make the shitty basic shonen plot and barebones characters better.
Yes to all the above
>Alvis acts as your Blade for a scene
>New optional arena stuff content with new swimsuits and Xeno series references.
Yes?
XC1's combat is far more MMO-like. Not as much of a learning curve, but not as engaging. Overall, I prefer XC1 over XC2, though.
>I've only played XC2
yikes
>SOUL
cringe
>Really subtle
If your only anime experience is Naruto maybe.
I didn't buy it on release you dumbdumb bubblegum head ass.
I only got it just recently.
You should play it just because it’s a pretty good Jrpg. If you liked 2, then you probably don’t mind the combat, so you’d be fine.
The Shoulder that was cut wasnt the Valak Mountain arm but the other one, right? I suppose the path to it would be around the area you fight the Makna Telethia but its hard to say. I havent played the game in a few years and my memory of the geography for the forest is a little spotty
everything is better but the combat has less mechanics
So can I have a definitive version of X too?
That's the way it works for the High Entia anyway. The King gets his pure lineage wife and then his DNA compatible wife to breed out the fucking transform into a horrible monster gene. So I see no reason that Shulk couldn't do the same.
She'll be more than a friend in the new exclusive secret ending though
I wonder if they'll give us cosmetic armor slots this time around so I don't look like a retard for a majority of the game.
*they properly patch up Alvis origin story
ftfy
the fun part of xeno 1 combat is getting characters to attack at the speed of light like mecha fiora and her never ending auto attacks
>Light on waifu stuff
>Shulk's primary motivation is his waifu who turns into a cyborg with her ass hanging out

>Malos can Break your vision of the future
Item hunting is what killed the game for me and why I never made it past when you're supposed to go to Prison Island. It wasn't fun running around trying to hope a random field drop is the item you need, over and over. That isn't engaging gameplay, it's fucking busywork to pad out your play time. I don't own a switch but I pray XC2 doesn't have the same issue.
Honestly the UI would have to be pretty reworked, but you just need to give the world a little more color and fix the faces and performance, and viola.
>finally going to be able to move while auto-attacking again
feels good desu yo
It's a better executed game than 2 but has much less ambitious and more basic characters and story than 2.
Xenoblade 1 is my favourite JRPG of all time but after playing Xenoblade 2 and going back to Xenoblade 1 it's really blatant how shallow Xenoblade 1 mostly is, especially in its world building.
>Are there cute boys?
Gar macho men*
You don't have to do all the fetch quests user
You don't have to do the sidequests my man, the game is perfectly playable and enjoyable even if you ignore them entirely.
>no gears/saga remake
>get instead remake of a game that isn't even a decade old
Damn I love Yanase's mecha designs.
YES I DO! What if I reach a point in the game and now shit is locked off forever? Content I'm now unable to ever do because of laziness. What if it was leading to something important? What's the point of a game if you arent doing EVERYTHING?
Yeah that’s the only part that didn’t sit right with me. I dunno what their endgame is with this besides making money.
>I don't own a switch but I pray XC2 doesn't have the same issue.
Not as much. There is a quest early on for a particular item that is a little rarer then it should be, since it only drops from specific points, but as long as you are constantly going to gathering spots, you should always have what you need. Nothing is fucking Rainbow whatever levels of rare and the drops can be increased with field skills.
I only had to farm twice, once at the start of the game for Confusion Ivy on a small side quest and then when getting the final form of Poppi, as I was missing salvage stuff from a later game area. But it didn't take that long.
>that isn't even a decade old
It's exactly a decade old.
>good ass JRPG just less going on in the combat than 2
That's totally fair since this is what happens when you go backwards. I've heard so many people who have a personal attachment to it so I'm sure it'll be good. I hope XCX comes as well because it really tempted me to get a Wii U back in the day.
>Gar macho men
Also acceptable and cute!
>What if I reach a point in the game and now shit is locked off forever?
Luckily, XC2 doesn't do that at all. Only one Titan with some shitty quests that don't require any items and those quests really don't give you much. Everything outside of that can be completed whenever you want.
This game is perfect for you, because the game puts a clock icon next to a sidequest if there's a cutoff point. If there's no clock you can do the quest at any point in the game.
This game is genius.
They're adding cut content from the original as well.
If S-E/Bamco don't wanna play ball, you're not getting them.
>Item hunting is what killed the game for me
Imagine being this fucking stupid. Really, just close your eyes and imagine being this huge of an idiot.
>noooo I MUST 100% the game and view nook and cranny
The only time you will ever farm in XC2 is when you're trying to make your endgame/NG+ party super overpowered.
Which is funny, since Namco are more open to having a new Baten Kaitos then anything else and want Monolith to do it.
If the game was genius it wouldn't have made the side content such an insufferable chore to do.
My autism demands it.
get the fuck out of here nigger
Gah, I hate having to find really specific drops for AUX cores. At least with the level 6 from challenge mode, they come prepackaged.
What's the Gainax equivalent to Xenoblade X?
>expected seething Xfags
>get seething Sagafags instead
Chronicles 1 & 2 really are blessings.
I've watched this scene at least 20 times and still get chills.
They should just let /outgirl/ redo Melia's voice completely.
Honestly Monolith Soft could back off with the autism. There’s always some sort of tedious as fuck shit design in their games. At some point it’s just annoying.
I'm betting they'll be a connection with the challenge mode in 2 but from Shulk's perspective.
>"Today, we use our power to fell a god, and then... seize our destiny!"
Xenosaga and Gears are a totally different series tho.
Please don't lump it with the embarrassment that Blade turned out to be.
You see anti-2 retards further up as well, if we're talking shitposters. That said, I think all the Xfags are just happy that they're already remastering the games, because this gives them more hope they'll do X for Switch.
>does this game have SOUL?
So I guess its safe to say this is the RETARD ALERT word now, right?
I swear to god if at any point you start bitching about how 'anime' Blade is after praising Gears and Saga I'm going to laugh so hard I die.
The same way people who don't understand jokes are autists, yes
>actual facial animations
This is gonna be good
Nobody does this.
I'm not anti-Blade but I recall Xenosaga fans complaining that Blade felt like a shitty normalfag shonen while Xenosaga and Xenogears felt like they were made for actual anime fans when Xenoblade 1 was new.
Xenosaga fans are some of the most pretentious fanbases in the fucking gaming industry.
They are definitely next on the chopping board. The only reason they are doing XC1 first is to get the dipshits who didn't play XC1 up to date with what was happening in the other universe. Takahashi will likely use this chance to properly tie 1 to 2 together and maybe throw in some bait or a connection to X as well. Maybe even a teaser for the future. I said in a previous XC1 thread I hope this game teases XC3-X2. I'm a strong believer that the Conduit did teleport to Mira and it'll play a strong part in the next game behind the scenes.
I enjoyed Chronicles' story but I don't understand why so many people worship the ground it walks on. It's just a stock anime story, it doesn't do anything particularly impressive or new. It doesn't have political intrigue like Geneology of the Holy War (the Sigurd half anyway, the Seliph half is kinda just a retread of Marth's story and as a result is nowhere near as interesting). It doesn't do environment-based storytelling like Dark Souls. It isn't a cool historical fiction drama like Shadow Hearts: Covenant. It doesn't go fucking off the wall insane like Drakengard (admittedly that game is barely an RPG). It's not grand scale in the way Suidoken 2 is. It doesn't have grounded characters put in an extraordinary set of circumstances like Earthbound. It isn't even one continuous story throughout the years which is impressive just for sticking to narrative for decades like the Rance series. It's just "good".
There's nothing wrong with it, but you niggers overrate it way too much when it tried to do nothing to advance the genre in terms of storytelling.
>bitching about how 'anime' Blade is
Literally what the fuck are you even talking about, I didn't mention anything about that in my post.
But if you wanna know, all three series are jrpgs heavily inspired by anime, mostly mecha, so saying the games are "anime" it a very fucking obvious observation.
I'm just glad the secondaries will start jerking off a good game instead of one that doesn't deserve it at all.
The butthurt and contrarianism is beginning.
Can't wait to see Yea Forums turn on XC like everything else.
Same but with Persona 5
>is beginning
Where were you for the last 4 years? Some people were starting to turn on XB1 ever since XBX and XB2.
It's not contrarian to say you don't see what everyone else sees in it. To be contrarian is to say it's shit.
He literally says multiple times that he likes the game and thinks it's good you retard
Nah, the X fans and XC2 fans were just shitposters, once the remake outsells XC2, it'll be the new punching bag.
>Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Man i need to replay that game.
I'm hoping the X remaster removes the censorship since the situation at NOA is very different now.
It was the only huge RPG the Wii ever got, and it wasn't just huge by Wii standards, but by RPG standards as a whole and did novel shit like have the world you travel on be literally the body of a colossal dormant titan, allowing you to see other parts of its body(locations) off in the distance.
And then once X and especially 2 came out it became a tool for shitting on those games for having the absolute gall to be different or, god forbid, have nice-looking faces.
I hope so. Breast Slider should return in all it's glory.
Ok but I'm talking in terms of storytelling. What you're describing is atmosphere and gameplay. Say what you want about Gears disk 2 (it's shit), but at least it tried to do something different narratively. Granted it never intended to do that different thing and it was forced on them, and I think it actually hurt the game and I don't think many will disagree there, but having a big mainstream RPG basically become a VN in its second half is something you didn't see in videogames back then.
Most jrpgs story are just shit. Xenoblade was mostly inoffensive, and the characters are likeable so people liked it. It’s about execution too, which it did well enough.
Tokyo Mirage Sessions will be the ultimate test to see if Nintendo has done away with the WiiU era censorship. Fuck that was an annoying time.
Maybe the definitive edition's cut content could change that?
>Most jrpgs story are just shit.
That shouldn't be an excuse to not try.
Why would you save my posts?
>getting all updated models and graphics in general
>New zones that were cut from the original
>Possibility of live recorded audio
>Guar Plains in full fucking splendor in HD and 60FPS
OH BABY WE'RE GOING HOME
I hate that they turned it into a tool for shitposting. I've loved this series since I got Xenogears from my piece of shit older brother but now the fanbase is infested with people picking a favorite game and then doing nothing but shitting on everything else.
This but unironically
You're a cool dude with cool opinions
>tfw you didn't really like having nagi in your party but knew it was all worth it for Blossom Dance
>60fps
Yeah I we got that 10 years ago on dolphin.
Anyway, is it confirmed?
It's worshipped for its story because it's a shonen story. It's a story where Shulk(You) is the hero, against all odds, and all the game's events are centered around him. By contrast, X is a story about BLADE, Elma, and all of humanity, while 2 is a story about Jin, Malos, Pyra, and Mythra. Shonen stories are all about wish fulfillment and making the viewer(player) feel special vicariously through their self-insert. X and 2 do not do this, with 2 getting an extra helping of SHIT WAIFU HAREM NEPTUNIA CRINGE because Yea Forums is practically a 15th century puritan society and the main girls dress provocatively.
None of this means that XC1 necessarily has a bad story. It's executed very well, but it tosses all other major characters to the wayside for the sake of the main protagonist.

>Shonen stories are all about wish fulfillment and making the viewer(player) feel special vicariously through their self-insert.
I mean that's not necessarily true. Fist of the North Star is a shonen story and despite Kenshiro being billed as the ultimate badass, his life is nothing but unending suffering.
>those opinions
What an absolute dipshit. I hate that I gotta share a fanbase with faggots like that.
Happy to help
I replayed XB1 on dolphin and I’m curious how they’ll adjust this remaster
Add in cut content?
DLC with cameos like XB2?
Better fucking armor designs?
Add in XB2 revelations?
>his life is nothing but unending suffering.
I'm sure most teenage boys feel that way about their own lives, too.
What the fuck was with those japanese humor threads?
This is a good point
While XB2 sold better, a lot of that has to do with Xenoblade even being in the public mindset thanks to rainfall and smash and the switch actually selling well
yeah and I think it will be post game XB2 with rex, pyra AND mythra, just like how XB2 had post game shulk and fiora
One can only hope
I hope so but it would likely just be Rex and Pyra as optional party members or for Post-game quests/challenges
Most teenagers don't have to murder their best friends repeatedly.
Unironically it was one guy who's admitted to hating all JRPGs who was spamming them for months on end and then other people started joining in spamming it while pretending to be him since it made people seethe.
It got so bad that just posting the webm anywhere can get you banned.
My dream would for it to be an unwinnable fight
