>We know Mumkhar at least came from another colony that was destroyed.
We do? Shit, I don't remember that.

Everything in the top shot is new, even what Shulk and Melia are wearing is not in the original game.

I mean look at the grass and rocks that make up the bionis. In the original they had a sort of grey/green/yellow colour, while here it looks brown.

I think Dunban mentions it during the H2H at the Black Wreckage.

Same as the remake. Only difference is they actually look good and not soulless garbage

>soulless
I hate when retards learn new words.

>drab
changes to the lighting, colours in the albedo/diffuse textures could be identical to the original game but the new physically based lighting model will shade them correctly giving them a far greater range.
It's a significant improvement overall, even if you don't agree

Considering this brief shot was the only thing after the game's name in the trailer, I'm sure its all alluding to all new content and I find it suspect and funny to use only Shulk and Melia for it.

It’s probably to foreshadow the Fiora revival so it isn’t an asspull anynore

Attached: IT'S TIME.png (311x354, 171K)

He mentions it in one of the paths of the H2H with Melia at Metal Face's wreckage at the fallen arm.

alley oop

The Fiora revival was never an asspull, it was incredibly obvious from very early on in the game.
What WAS an asspull was her getting her original body back and surviving at the end of the game with no ingame explanation whatsoever. Hopefully the remake will fix that and incorporate the sidestory they came up with to explain it.

That’s what I meant, guess I should have worded it better

FUCK I hope they don't use XB2's shitty no-momentum jumping in this

>Middle one is from Project X Zone 2.

Attached: Fiora evolution.jpg (3426x1348, 2.46M)

XB1 might have the most attractive girls in the series with this remaster. I can’t wait to dress up Fiora

The one thing I hope they change is the in battle banter. It constantly took me out of the game. You know that part where Metal Face kills Fiora? Shulk lets out wordless, bloodthirsty screams and finally says "I'll kill you," and as soon as the battle starts he's calm and chipper and conversational like always. This shit happens multiple times.

>added story content

Fuck that shit, this is going to ruin everything and especially meliafags are getting want they want.

Another great game ruined for me.

I am pretty damn excited about the definitive edition actually.
But seriously. One major complaint even though it doesn't destroy anythng. Why in the world did they mute the colours? The lush greens and the deep blues etc were some of the best parts of the entire world of Xenoblade Chronicles. And now, judging from the trailer, everything looks greyer and browner. That I genuinely don't like one bit, but otherwise it's really exciting.

I really hope it's good.

you're the kind of faggot that wouldn't want xenogears' second disc to fully realized

In XB2's DLC they bothered to disable the character's chipper collection dialogue at one serious point in the story, so maybe they'll actually do that this time.

I just want a good game to be left alone and be a good game. This new added story content could potentially fuck up everything. Especially that you know they are just trying to appeal to meliafags, as obviously seen in the trailer

Finally someone gets it. The muted colours were one of the major disappointments with X for me, and it seems the same is happening here.

What?

The added content is probably going to be stuff that was intended to be in the original game but got cut. The original's story always felt like it had significant chunks missing from it.

I really really hope so.

this game was already too long its normal that developers cut shit during the development, but for some reason fans always thinks, that the stuff that was cut would be the best thing ever

When you first get to Torigoth in the DLC, if you use collection points as Lora, she won't say anything.

When everyone's all depressed in Torna after a serious thing happens your characters stop saying happy stuff when gathering items and so on for a while.

Yeah that's kind of what I am worried about too. It taking after X more than Xenoblade 1.
Now X had some really impressive visuals too, don't get me wrong. But I mean, damn. I am with you. That was the major disappointment. Sadly.

I hope this remake can still surprise me though. Maybe I am needlessly worried, but we'll see. I can't call it a disaster if it's like X though. As stated I still found that game to be really beautiful. It'd just be really disappointing at the same time.

>fans always thinks, that the stuff that was cut would be the best thing ever
Well apparently the devs thought that too seeing as Bionis Shoulder is back

i really hope we get a remix of gaur plains on the bionis shoulder

that would be ultimate kino

>The original's story always felt like it had significant chunks missing from it
I personally didn't feel that way. For me it was party of the storytelling and world that MAYBE here and there a questions arised that never got answered or explained. But in the end the whole in itself made sense, except the ending might have been weird for many people.
But that's what the ending inn this game is and I don't think added story content would make that any better or answer a supposedly big question.

Literally everything looks better on the right.

The only think worse in the remaster is the lighting of the faces. The actual models and animations look so much better its unreal

Everything looks better up until that last shot. Why the fuck don't they hire color guards?

One on the right looks washed out, colors on the left look far better, especially on the characters where they are nice and rich.

The new lighting in that shot of Metal Face is fantastic

>that grass in the last shot on the left
ugh, awful

soul vs souless

The sunset is the only shot that looks better.

If this is running on Torna's engine, I'm glad they seem to have fixed some of the issues with the DoF and that weird ghosting that was all over the place in Torna. I think there might be a little of it around Shulk's hair in that first screen, but it doesn't seem as bad.

god torna was good

>Shulk
>Soul
Retard

Considering there's a time of day system and PC has shader mods, original = soul remaster = soulless

Is Torna's engine even much of an improvement over Xenoblade 2 the games portable resolution still looked pretty bad, if Xenoblade Definitive does have improved performance how much of it will be down to it's lower detail environments and enemies?

Yea Forumseddit hates anime, both the leftoids and the /pol/cucks. There's a reason why it's universally called the worst board.

Oh, it still looks like trash in handheld mode, but it looks a bit nicer docked and has fancier effects and better grass or something.

Shader mods always fuck up something critical and look like complete bum as a result.

Can you just stop seething for a single hour maybe?
You've been freaking out in threads all day.

Ass

so xb2 had klaus hearing shulk's line about felling god in the middle of the final boss fight
if they decide to add a dumb reference to match in 1 is zanza going to be hearing rex attempting to give malos last minute therapy?

Shul-Kh

why do people lie about things like this

Potential ruining of this gam eby added story content. Probably not gonna play this and let the game rest in my mind as good as it is.

soulless soul

Why do people keep thinking the Bionis Shoulder is going to be some "post game" area? The natural progression of the Bionis was originally going to be
>Makna Forest > Bionis Shoulder > Eryth Sea
Not only that, but the Japanese website already said that the game would not only have retold, but new story to tell, compared to the original. There's the fact that Mumkhar comes from a Colony other than 9, the Giant Clan from Ancient Bionis used to live in the upper regions, and Egil/Arglas were standing there in a flashback cutscene. It'd be easy to expand the lore, assuming that's what they're going for.
>Monado redesign
How do we know that slotting the Monado with Ether Gems doesn't change its design now? Similar to how slotting Aux Cores in Blades in XC2 made them change their design?

Zanza isn’t connected to Malos, so no. It will probably be Zanza feeling Klaus’ emotions during his death as he fades away

Different times of day and different locations moron. I don't even know which will be better in the end but that last shot isn't a good comparison at all.

Graphics modders have no sense of subtlety or fidelity to the original intent. They never simply leave it at enhancement - they always go several steps beyond into a damned botch job.

But maybe we get to see what happened with Mayneth

They only have to adapt the official book explanation: that genius mecha doctor mechon girl made a machine that restore her body.

You aren't installing a mod, you're tweaking shaders you damn retard. You've never used one have you?

All of this from what, a one minute teaser? We're not off to a good start.

Probably one thing they will change is give Alvis a core crystal.

Another thing they should change is replace collectables on the map with collection points and give the player a few field skills to improve yields.

Looks like the extact same game but with the retarded XB2 cell shading. Not that you can do better on this underpowered android tablet.

I'm almost certain that's the main reason this remake is even happening.

>>Hostile XC2fags arguing with condescending XC1fags
What? i don't see that shit here, they have no reaosn to be enemies, their games are connected as fuck.

>Fiora getting her body back
Apparently there was story content in the Monado Secret Files Artbook that said they originally planned for Fiora to be put in an ether tank or something along the lines to fix her body before Shulk and co. fight Zanza. There's a lot of plot changes that'll probably take place.

Adding shaders to shader-less games should be a capital crime.

Xenoblade Definitive will foreshadow that Alvis is the greater antagonist of the Xenoblade series.
He's the person who's gained the most from everything that's happened in 1 and 2.

Xenoblade is the story of a manmade AI (Alvis/Ontos) created from the Zohar that gets a small taste of Godhood from Xenoblade 1's pocket dimension so he manipulates and orchestrates the events in Xenoblade 1 (he can see the future) so that Shulk kills Zanza and wishes for a world without Gods which in turn would free Alvis from the constraints of Xenoblade 1's pocket dimension since he is technically a God. Alvis grants Shulk's wish and disappears to somewhere else with his Zohar magic. Alvis is trying to transcend from being the God of one universe to the God of Xenoblade's multiverses. Unless Xenoblade 3 is another Xenoblade that takes place at the same time as 1 and 2, expect to see Alvis and the Zohar's influence seep into the story as he slowly gains authority on all universes.

No, it was always post final battle.

Why would Alvis be a villain, this theory is stupid

Alvis seems to be the Wave Existence expy more than anything fampai

Not him but isn't Alvis technically still mostly a calculative computer emotionally unlike Pyra and Malos who were repurposed and humanized?

I know, that's why I said
>Hopefully the remake will fix that and incorporate the sidestory they came up with to explain it.
The story in the artbook could easily be adapted as a brief story interlude or sidequest. At the end Fiora decides to delay using the machine until after the final battle so it's not like it would interfere with the plot much or anything.

Welcome to Xenoblade threads on Yea Forums. I've never understood the drama - I love all things Xenoblade.

Fiora could have taken a dip in the bacta tank, but that would mean leaving Shulk to fight Zanza alone. So she waited.

double digit iq

Xenoblade 1 isn't a pocket dimension, it's a successor dimension, reality has a shelf life in Xenoblade, after a certain point reality ends and everyone returns to what the conduit connects to, the real problem is that the new realities are supposed to naturally form a desire of souls not wanting to retain their individuality, Xenoblades new reality was created artificially.

I'm confused, is this a remaster or a full on remake?

There's nothing evil about a machine that wants to improve on itself and sees the end goal as becoming a true God, user.

there is no cel-shading in any of these images you dumb

yes.

Please stop pushing this meme. Alvis being an antagonist makes no sense, and it would not only be ridiculous, but rather forced. If anything we're just going to get another Deus tier threat in XC3, with Alvis trying to gain freedom to a higher dimension like Xenogears. The parallels are there.

its a remake

you realize you're in a thread probably defending a shaderless game that's getting shaders added right

Yes

>Becoming God
For what? He's practically the only functioning Aegis, that we know of anyway, and has the power to create entirely new universes.

Finally, xenoblade 1 will get loads of fanart like xbc2! and the latter will also get even more relevant which means more fanart.

>OPINIONS

Dunno, the only thing I really want is Melia being saved from her cuck queen destiny like Nia was. The reworked plot to give connections to xbc2 is a given.

Wonder if they'll add in Gormotti's

It's pretty clear that Takahashi wants to focus on the mainline, for now. Remastering XC1 in accordance to his vision, and making further connections to XC2 for the upcoming XC3 is likely his plan. After that, an XCX remaster with likely enhanced graphics, altered combat, easily changed plot, and other things will be on its way. I always felt like X would be better off remade anyway, since the original was pretty fucking awkward.

What will your face be like when Malos suddenly respawns in XB1D and completely derails the plot and turns the game into Xenoblade 3 with the revelations that XB1D chronologically takes place after XB1 and XB2 and XB1D's world is a completely separate universe Alvis created and disappeared to that resembles XB1 but all the small changes are justified by being a different universe?

XCX's are mimeosomes .

I don't know why people keep mentioning these "haha lets have Malos come back from the dead and bomb Bionis XD" speculation posts. Not only would it fuck with his character, but it'd be truthfully unnecessary and borderline pointless fan service. If anything, he'll be a super boss in a Challenge Mode, but that's it.

because it isn't fair

Malos at the end of XB2 dies and splits into two people.
One side goes to XBX where he's the Black Knight and becomes a good guy.
One side goes to Xenoblade 1 Definitive where he doubles down on being an asshole.

The Machina are the only race that aren't represented in the party, too. And Egil's death would give her a perfectly good motivation to want to continue on with the party after Mechonis Core to go fight Zanza.

I forgot all about that. Holy shit. Better the abomination in P5, that's for sure.

I wonder if they'll expand this?

Can we get spirit Yaldabaoth in the final leg before Zanza instead of a fucking random Telethia please?

this, also, the new expression doesn't convey what the original did: a mix of angriness and brokenness (like He was almost dropping down crying), the new one just convey a worse expressed angriness .

Nopon are meme mascots anyway, but holy shit.

Working to keep his family fed is a perfectly fine motivation, fuck you.

I thought Riki had debt and he joined the party to help pay it off?

If they end up changing the plot around, Tyrea might have a special Telethia model since she's a special side quest boss. They could make that part of the story, and have her be the Telethia in the boss rush segment. Just a thought. Otherwise, Yaldy would be great.

How people can say XC1 doesn't have ridiculous anime shit when this glorious abomination exists is beyond me.

>I bet you are a xc2 fag
Pretty sure he's the falseflagger who tries to pit Xenoblade 1 and 2 against eachother, his post playing victim got deleted and a reply playing the attacker got deleted at the same time.

Do boobs actually move like that? From my limited experience shouldn't the movement be more whole-boob than that? It's not like they're made of jelly, they have weight and inertia would mean that they have to be pulled and pushed by something. That just seems like there's a rigid line going straight from chest to nipple with something soft around it. I guess it's a robot but still.

It's only in the end of a very long game. It's nothing compared to its sequel.

Didn't I tell you that I'd be in every new Xenoblade game's release threads to stir up trouble? Genofag never left, buddy.

The original didn't express that, that emotion almost entirely came from the voice acting

It looks like something from Kingdom Hearts.

His lower lip is in the same position as the original, it's just that the lips aren't nearly as defined in the new models

XC1 doesn't go full anime until Zanza squares off against Mayneth Fiora, which is around the 80% mark of the game, so it's pretty late in the game. Of course the full game looks like an anime now, so mongs are going to begin sperging as you've seen lately.

Shes a robutt. Her boobs aint Homs’ boobs

Played through a lot of the first game and stopped pretty late game, I still don’t know how I stomached the 3DS version but I guess it’s just because I was enjoying it that much anyways, so I’m pretty fucking stoked it’s getting a full blown makeover with redone visuals and new content on Switch. I get why people wouldn’t think it’s a “direct finisher” but for me it totally was, it came at a perfect time where it’s been long enough for me to play through it again, along with the stuff I missed out on what I assume was the last 20-25% of the game.

XB1 was filled with anime shit, it just didn't bring attention to them the same way XB2 chose to with some of its "humor" scenes

Basically this. It's not so much the expression, but the emotion behind the voice acting. Both expressions are fine, really. As usual though, based Adam delivers.

I dunno, I though shit like the humor with the colonel hitting the dude to the wacky music in Colony 9 was pretty anime. And Riki volleyball.
Nothing as intense as XB2 but it was enough that going from 1 to 2 didn't really feel as jarring as it seems to have for other people.

Nobody is denying that XC1 isn't an anime. It just doesn't go maximum output with it until late in the game, unlike XC2 where it's a constant aspect of the game.

You have to admit that's a pretty silly motivation when the rest of the party all have extremely personal stakes in what's going on.

Will the soundtrack be rearranged?

I hope we get more lore about the giants.

People that criticize XC2 for being anime don't criticize it for being an anime, they criticize it for being a trashy fanservice anime with boring self-insert mary sue MC.

He's a silly character.

Memory might be bad, I have heard that the bionis had 24 colonies, and they had to cut some. Originally colony 6 was in the left shoulder. Hence why in the start of the game they suggest to retreat to colony 6, they would just have to go back to the arm and then to the shoulder, instead of going all the way back to the bionis dick

considering Takahashi's comment about a X port was that "recreating it would be really difficult" I wonder if he was suggesting that he wants to give it a remaster treatment like what's happening with XB1 now

and I'm almost certain we'll get more insight at Alvis' fate. Quick reminder the Zohar fucked off Rex's Earth to go to Shulk's universe, summoned by Alvis, so Shulk can make his wish, granted by the power of the Zohar. Then what becomes of Alvis and the Zohar?

We're not getting it anytime soon and we don't even know how much XB:DE is adding on to the game. I don't see the point in speculating when the possibility of a 2 remaster is years and years away.

What game did you played, nigga?
His god did not wank him. He was just happy that not every human is a piece of trash like in the old world.
Also his party had many doubts about him, but in times of war they had nothing else to hold on to.
Moreover, he was a fucking jobber for more than half of the game.

His life was far from perfect.
He is a kid that have or wants to work for his adoptive family and nobody respect him ntil the very end of the game.

Rex got all by his own hands, suffering and some luck.

XC1 is WAY more of a shounen than 2 is.

If they could work on XBC Remaster, Breath of the Wild 1 (and 2), and pitch in on other games, on top of staffing up for the next Xeno project, they can handle an XBX port with their next title.

It does sound like if Takahashi wants it to happen, he wants to fix up parts of XBX first, rather than just slapshot it over to Switch

>it doesn't make any sense for her to be at the foot of the Space Elevator, when shit happened up there in Space in Klaus' room

if she turned into an aberration and lost her mind she could easily shamble her way down there not knowing what was going on but driven by instinct to GTFO

That's just straightout a lie. Fuck off.

Rex returns the favor from xc2's dlc by appearing as a optional party member using the combat mechanics from xc2

Can you niggers just not take the bait for once? Getting sick of these same repetitive muh anime arguments

Or are these just falseflaggers replying to themselves? What a joke

After XC3 happens, I'm pretty sure they'll get back around to X since Takahashi loves it a lot. He said it'd take as much to port it, as it would to make a new game, so honestly the remaster treatment that XC1 is getting would be perfect for it.
>Proper models to work with Tanaka's designs for the characters (unless that new head artist is around by then)

It'll be great. Xfags will get their turn. Right after the main line.

Not him but I'm pretty sure Takahashi said in a interview that he made Shulk to be as much like a shounen protagonist as possible.

That's a whole ass lie. I don't even know why you'd make such a delusional comment.

I don't understand why people always feel the need to detract back and say
>"B-But XC1 is too!"
Just stop.

This. But I'm not expecting Alvis to be a villain, quite the contrary even. But I can definitely see some kind of threat or something out of the Zohar controlling him, making him do tings against his will. Whatever it will be, I bet we'll see Alvis again in XC3 and he'll be a major plot point.

I don't think the Zohar has the power to control people. Especially an AI built to harness its power, and does so on such a scale that it can make an entire universe. The Alvis will become an antagonist theories are questionable at best, but he'll for sure be an important plot device in XC3. I mean, he's basically the Wave Existence of Blade.

>Xcuck is now ruining XC1 definitive threads too

Reminder to ignore and report

>He was just happy that not every human is a piece of trash like in the old world.
Klaus didn't realize that 'not every human is a piece of trash like in the old world', he realized that the new humanity wasn't any different the old one...and that was okay. The old humanity had good people just like the new one did.

It wouldn't be a leap for there to be a U-DO or Wave Existence like existence responsible for the Zohar's power, and it speaking through the AI connected to it.

>The Zohar left Rex's universe to go to Shulk's universe so he could grant his wish
Did we play the same game? This sounds like head canon to me, because that certainly didn't happen. Alvis alone gave Shulk the power to do that. No Conduit required in that realm, or time. I'm assuming that ending will be retconned as well, though.

Improved drop rates for shit. I swear all the material quests are the most tedious thing in any JRPG I've played. Either that or a vendor who sells this shit so I can circumvent it entirely.

>Face buttons like in XC2, but there aren't enough buttons to make it work properly
Just have arts comes in customisable sets that you can switch between with the d-pad at will. Like Blade switching, but without the blades and with no cooldown.

This, and also make inventory space unlimited.

I truthfully haven't played Saga, but from what I remember in Gears, the Wave Existence was trapped inside the Zohar after Fei's previous incarnation became the Contact, or something along those lines. If Takahashi is indeed reusing plot elements, then I expect Alvis to end up trapped in the Conduit, or at least bound to it. I guess he could be "controlled" against his will in a sense, but who knows.
I do recall some theory where the Conduit could remake Aion as a defense system, but it becomes corrupted and gains a will of its own, sort of like Deus, which results in Alvis getting fucked over somehow. That's possible as well. Either way, it'll be nice to see him again, and I assume he has an Artifice as well.

The only way to get such power, is through a reality bending wish granting device. Guess what shiny golden thing was introduced in XC2 and fucked off without any apparent reason from Rex's universe? Now you connect the dots. I guarantee you we'll see the Zohar popping in XC1:DE's ending, shining up and rewriting reality.

There was a colonel set in the tcrf page

He was referring to the fact that even though I own a beastly PC i still play it on the WiiU. The online features of X are one of the best parts of the game.

Switch Online is a paid service and X's online features weren't designed with that in mind.

>xenoblade generals might return!

That's not entirely out of the realm of possibility, true. Who's to say it didn't go to a universe beyond Shulk's, though? I know we'll end up seeing the Conduit again in some shape or form, but eh. I still have doubts, though.

>Right as Xeno threads started to lessen on the board, a XC1 Remaster emerges and sparks a whole new wave of shitposting
It's time to begin the experiment.

Well, as for XC:DE's extended ending, I can definitely see the Zohar also disappearing from Shulk's universe alongside Alvis going with it, to a new world or something. Then XC3, I guess. Well, we'll see.

I don't think the Conduit went to XB1's universe. Most of XB1's ending should take place during the second half of 2's final boss fight - you hear Shulk about to deliver the final blow to Zanza during the halfway cutscene in the fight, and the Conduit only disappears right before Malos dies.
I think Alvis is probably able to use the Conduit's power already through whatever link the two universes have, and the reason he's rushing Shulk to make a decision during the ending is because he knows that his power source is about to fuck off.

Forgot to respond to

This is also another good explanation. Of course XC1's plot is likely going to be retconned quite a bit, so that's likely changing as well.

Yes, but you'll have to collect 120 of that fucking 2% drop material from that enemy that pops up only at a certain time of the day. In good old RNG fashion.

I really like Melia's hair.

Either way, I think it'll be interesting to see how they'll play it out in this remake. I'm fairly certain this remake isn't there for nothing, and it will give hints and will serve as a bridge to tie in the two Xenoblades perfectly for the inevitable XC3

Kosmos really should be in, though. Both Monolith, and Bamco helped with Smash Ultimate's development, and it's technically an IP from another company, with a DS game (Xenosaga 1+2). It never released outside of Japan, but Kosmos was also in XC2, too. She's pretty popular, and the IP is relatively old too, so she has a really nice chance.

Hey anons, does anyone happen to know what the third aegis sword is called in the game files?

Most of X's online features don't require much data transmission, so you'd only lose out on online co-op. The passive shit could run without nintendo online.

X is Xenoblade 10

In a world of extremely low effort ports/remasters, this actually looks really good

You all have serious issues if you look at this and see something you don't like

There's a fairness to people not liking how this is looking more like Xenoblade 2 or other Xeno titles, versus the FF12 kind of look the original packed. Not much to be done about it though

It's not like the original stops existing, and you can always play that with whatever HD packs Wii emulation provides. If the Switch version was literally just that, what point would there be? This actually makes an actual alternative, something that didn't exist before. Maybe you don't want XB1 with XB2 art style, but it's something you can have vs just having effectively what fans have already provided for free. Whether or not you personally want it is irrelevant

Then just stay on the original, faggot.

>Whether or not you personally want it is irrelevant

I agree with you, and I personally love how the game's looking now and am eager to see more.

I know some of the blades that have inaccessible menus have special weapon names (I know for sure that Malos's version of Sever's Tonfa is 'Thanatos'), but I think Pneuma's weapon is just 'primitive sword', same as Pyra's default.

XC3 is going to lead in to a Xenogears remake that ties together Saga and Blade

>game tells me I'm supposed to give a shit when she pops back after spending 40 hours of gameplay with Melia in my team nuking everything

>fanmade a pneuma full final art.
That is so depressing

He's talking about recreating life on the Bionis, not the universe. The whole 'cycle' where the Telethia come to wipe everything out at the end.
Melia's in the party for maybe 10 hours at most before Fiora comes back.

He means he reset the Bionis, and eventually gained a massive god complex because he was lonely. As eons passed by, people started to forget about him, so he essentially bombed the Bionis repeatedly. Not so much the universe.

>not doing sidequest

yikes

>because he was lonely
meyneth was horny as fuck for him even after he killed a shitton of her people and cut the mechonis's arm off
what the hell is he complaining about

Fucking this. Completing colony 6 was bullshit. I remember spending literal hours farming one spot for a item with less than 1% drop rate just to finish it.

I bet 5 doritos that Alvis will have a fucking zohar core crystal on his body

An endless cycle of Bionis and Mechonis fighting, until each suffer grevious wounds and need to heal. They generate life on their bodies to help repair themselves, with all sorts of animals and people and civilizations cropping up. Then, all that life is extinguished and reabsorbed to repair Bionis and Mechonis, and they continue the fight anew.
Except this time Zanza took Meyneth's Monado and then got beat by the power of friendship and gnosticism.

That's not what happens. The cycle only applies to Bionis, because Zanza 'wished for a world in a perpetual cycle of destruction and recreation', so people wouldn't eventually forget him or something. And Zanza and Meyneth lived in peace until Zanza attacked the Machina in Egil's time, the fight between the titans wasn't something that was repeating itself.

Actually worse than gacha. There, I said it, and I assume what I said.

they're both pretty bad but I'm with you, brother

Was the Bionis in a repeating cycle? Wasn't the timeline that the Bionis and Mechonis were in peace before Zanza sperged out and they fought and everything went from there?

Yes.
>Zanza and Meyneth were lonely.
>So they created life in their own image.
>As the world advanced to each further stage, it was inherited by generations of different life forms.
>But over time, awareness of Zanza faded.
>Zanza feared this.
In order to escape his own annihilation, he wished for a world in a perpetual cycle of destruction and recreation.

And then he never was able to reset life. He was going to, but Mayneth fought him instead. Zanza may have been able to kill off the Giants though. Pretty sure the Homs survived

>And then he never was able to reset life.
He says he did. No real reason to assume he would randomly lie about that.
Also the Giants were killed off by the Arachno or something. It's in a sidequest.

My ideal scenario for redoing the Vandam stuff is that they spend the second half of chapter 3 focusing on the externalities of the land and food shortage caused by dying Titans. Vandam can bring the gang along on a few jobs both in Uraya and Abroad where they get to see the natural consequences on regular people as well as the caustic effect that that scarcity has on governments and international relations.
Then Vandam gets offed in the first half of chapter 4 in Mor Ardain, which leads into Tora’s Artificial Blade arc

Normally I’d be with you but XB2 has so much potential that was held back by a gimped staff count and rushed release date that I kind of think it’d benefit disproportionately from the treatment.
Even if it was just a touch up for cutscenes so the voice acting got a second shot, audio mixing was done properly and the animations were polished up on the whole

I still can’t believe we’re getting this
XB2 made me believe in the specialness of JRPGs again after the first Xenoblade, so this has me excited to see how they’ll revisit it

>Normally I’d be with you but XB2 has so much potential that was held back by a gimped staff count and rushed release date that I kind of think it’d benefit disproportionately from the treatment.
That's every Xeno game ever released, and probably for the foreseeable future. And if it's not "gimped staff count" then it''s "they didn't have the cutscene budget for their original plans because HD + open world was already too expensive" (X) or "they only got to make episodes instead of 6" or "they couldn't implement all the content they wanted for disc 2".

I'd rather just move on.

Can't wait for everyone to be BTFO when DE changes literally nothing about the plot, which is the ideal outcome, anyway.
I also see faggots wanting changes to the combat. I literally just want the same game on a new engine, plus the Shoulder. If they change the story / gameplay in any major ways, it'd be stupid. 1 has a self-contained story. 2's existence doesn't retroactively add anything to 1. They're both separate and unrelated in every way except for one scene.

after listening to the Ricky Gervais show I couldn't take anything in the Xenoblade 2 seriously because I just imagine Rex as Carl.

Better hope an X port has it, it would look absolutely stunning with that sort of lighting.

Why do people like these singleplayer mmos? The first game has the worst quest structure ever seen in a JRPG. Have fun scanning every location, day and night a billion times to find quests to progress in each zone.

At least Carl has good ideas sometimes.

Britbongs, what is Reyn's accent?

Water is wet.

It's called anisotropic filtering, something the Switch is incapable of. Even without "HD" textures, they are superior as you can actually see the detail in them instead of a blurry, flat mess.

Wow this really is definitive. Definitively shit. Wii version will still be the only one that matters.

>Loli Pyra is always hugging her Rex doll.

If they don't tie X into the story with DE then I honestly don't even know why they bothered to call X a Xenoblade game in the first fucking place.

Another dimension.

His biggest mistake (asides from fucking with the Zohar in the first place) was telling Malos that he was a computer and didn't have a purpose, which only boosted his insecurities and got him killed instead of telling his fucking son that he didn't need to be a war machine if he didn't want to and had a right to be happy too fuck

A WHOLE DIFFERENT PLANET

>meyneth was horny as fuck for him
nah

His biggest mistake was not stopping Amalthus from taking the Aegis cores or doing literally anything to correct Malos's instinctive assumption that "I hate everything, guess that's because Dad wants it all dead!!!" before he started fucking sinking Titans.

He's also a dick for making his kids climb all the way up the world tree to get answers about their existence instead of just sending them the Aegis equivalent of an email or something

Hope he gets a redesign. That fight was a visual mess between the dynamic background and Mr. OC Keyblade wielder

What would he think of Shulk and friends?

Attached: malos hmm.png (170x296, 107K)

so when klaus pushed the button, I understand that the planet downstairs eventually becomes Alrest but what about Bionis/Mechonis? where are they physically in relation to Alrest?

Alternate universe.

Malos would probably be on board with Shulk's passion for getting revenge on the Mechon and him being kind of a madman, and join the party. Otherwise, he he'd be his same smug, shit talking self, although Shulk trying to save Mumkhar and sparing Egil would really piss him off.
I feel like Alvis would get on his nerves too, in an "annoying intellectual little brother" way.

Aside from the bionis shoulder was there anymore cut areas dataminers found? Also when can we expect to see more news about the game?

>guy so upset about his dead girlfriend that he wants to genocide an entire race, and his friends who also want this
He'd probably appreciate that.
Might not be a big fan of the more moralfaggy lategame Shulk, but at that point they'd both want to kill the same guy, so there has to be some kind of mutual appreciation there.

I feel like the main reason left feels expressive is because you can basically hear shulks english voice actor when you look at him. Once we can create a mental link to the new design and the voice actor I think we will start to feel it more.
A lot of people are just anti-anime in general though and will prefer left for looking less anime so they dont have to worry about their parents seeing them play cartoon games.

I hope they add gacha mechanics and field skills

Hey what's a good end game setup for the characters? Equipment/arts. Cant find anything

>cut areas dataminers
Mechonis field

This game directs some cutscenes really well and its only enhanced by the superb VAs (Howden)

The first scene with Metal Face was a trip. This silent gangly Transformer just waltzes in and murders everything. And then that first encounter hits all the right moments.

>a Xenoblade remaster was announced in the same Direct as fucking Deadly Premonition 2
>Nintendo considers the former to be a big enough deal to put it in the 'one last thing' spot
I don't know how I got into this timeline but I'm so happy

>Mechonis field
Got a link?

In the original XC1, Zanza's final line after being cut by the True Monado is "all that I am is fading".

Whatever the PC version is it'll be inferior to the Switch version.
PC can only emulate, it can't create.

Yeah look at how realistic Shulk's eyes are in the original, they take up 30% of his face like a normal person

yours don't?

Of course they do, because I am a normal human being with eyes the size of my mouth like any other person

>PC can only emulate, it can't create.
This is the dumbest post I've read today and that's saying something.

Fucking this. I though we would just get a offhand "Hey by the way XB1 is getting a port" before all the major Smash/Pokemon/Animal Crossing stuff to the point that I thought that the Monolith Staff retweeting the Direct was just them being good sports and supporting their colleagues.

You wouldn't believe the chills that wen down my spine when I heard that piano start up and that shot of Makna Falls. It really blows my mind that Xenoblade became Nintendo's de facto JRPG series.

If Pneuma is into shotas and Malos is into big blue cock, then what is Alvis into?

It does. I think it was the most visually impressive shot in the trailer. You also see they applied a similar shiny metal sheen to the mechon grunts. For some reason it made them blue and overly rounded too.

I mean, I'm kinda glad and all but I still want Nintendo to let MonolithSoft to spread their wings and do something that isn't Xenoblade
Branching out helps in coming up with new stuff, motivates the staff and keeps ideas fresh, I mean, imagine if Capcom never let Itsuno make Dragon's Dogma

Tiles.

Xenoblade's X's jumps were fun as hell. I loved using them to climb all around areas I wouldn't have been able to touch at that point and similarly the I missed the Skell jumps after getting flight.

what map?

Oh totally, the last thing I'd want is Monolith to become another Game Freak. But with the overall success of the Xenoblade series and all they contributed to BotW and presumably BotW 2, I doubt there isn't a game that Nintendo wouldn't let them make or give them a sizable budget and time for, within reason.

The Monado warps reality. Speed would just change things so that you're as fast as you need to be be. Similarly the light coming from the Monado at the end when it remakes the universe comes out at retardedly beyond FTL numbers. Aside from some exotic stuff, anything Xenoblade 2 characters the Monado could do far better.

>>spends the rest of the game dramatically acting like she's on her last legs, then is suddenly fine and human again in the ending

I wonder if they include the explanation of the side material that the gene therapy (from the side quest) made a new body for her, instead of leaving it ambigious as a "maybe Shulk gave her a new body, so he can fuck her again" in the game.

They needed to cancel out Riki's cancerous presence.

You're butthurt because it's true.

Where do you think games are made?

The design looks pretty cool in its official art, but in game it's really disappointing.

Attached: 95461.jpg (900x1100, 198K)

I really hope they implement movement speed upgrades in a way similar to XB2 instead of trying them to gems again.

I hope we get Rex as a bonus side character just so that we can hear the superior Unique Monster music.
youtube.com/watch?v=NzZ2rUM9DEg

Haven't had a chance to see the trailer properly, but are they really adding the unfinished Left Shoulder area from the original? That's neat.

Good ones? Not for PC.

>hating the heropon
What's wrong with you?

Yeah, or they could not make movement speed frustratingly slow in the first place.

Tora is the only acceptable Nopon.

Where are they developed, son
Where do people make models, where do people write scripts, where do people compile animations

W-What?

Tora is garbage only barely salvaged by the fact that he's not as bad as Tatsu and Poppi's existence.

Clearly if we go by your logic, they're all for PC. But all the good games are for console and not for PC.
HOW CAN THIS BE?
You'll never get to play anything but a bootleg port of Xenoblade for PC.

I tried getting it close. They must've changed the knee a fair bit. The Mechonis seems further away as well.

Attached: SX4E01-1.png (1280x700, 1.57M)

knee cap hill

Bionis Shoulder is basically the zone that was supposed to connect Makna Forest and Eryth Sea instead of the lame teleporter in Makna.

Sure, but that's not what we're discussing here, you're saying PCs are unable to create, only emulate, when that's their purpose

gotta stretch out that game length in any way possible
it's the monolith way

And in the end, the games aren't created for PC.
Which is why you need to rely on bootleg versions through emulators.
So you can't create, only emulate.

Or are you going to ignore everyone trying to jerk off the inferior dolphin version?

yeah but why is Alcamoth there?

The dolphin version is objectively superior to the Wii version. The only issue is when people are fooled into using awful, awful texture packs.

What if we took Alcamoth and pushed it somewhere else?

Metal Face got the best upgrade.

You're retarded. 2 years from now the remake will be playable on PC at 4k, so even if it is "better" than the Wii version, it won't matter as it'll still be available. For free.

Either it's a second city or it's a really weird visual because from that angle, you shouldn't be able to see Alcamoth at that height

Thanks for proving my point dumbass.
PC can't create, it can only emulate.

Enjoy your bootleg version since PC can't create good games for itself.

Tora was better than Riki

What you're saying doesn't make any sense. You can modify any existing game. You're an enormous casual if you think there aren't good games on PC. Like, holy shit. The difference is PC can emulate AND play both multiplats and exclusives natively. You can't be older than 12 if you're this ignorant.

You're dancing around the fact it's just emulation.
Stop being a little bitch and accept defeat with grace.
Or are you going to try and emulate victory as well?

Anyone hope they add new arts and monado arts to the game?

Sorry that's gonna be 8000000 yen plus tip

Emulation is always superior to the original platform, except in some cases. I'll enjoy the game you're paying for at 4k/60 fps for free with actual texture filtering and support for actual good gaming controllers, like the DS4.

You should give the pseudo-reddit spacing a rest, underage-kun.

No, because Rex isn't fighting Klaus, he's fighting Aion on another floor entirely. The only outright references to 2 will be the space station cutscene being remade and Alvis' true form being a blue Aegis core.

BUT MALOS, MUMKHAR IS HOMS

You know gaslighting doesn't help the fact you back an inferior product redditor.

No prob.

How can a version that has arbitrary resolution support be inferior to one that's locked at sub-720p/30? Tick tock, user.

Deleveling like in XC2 would be nice (in exchange for bonus stuff), considering how quickly you overleveled if you did some sidequest stuff).

Because it's not the original product, you can only create bootlegs, PC cannot create good games on their own and need to rely on consoles.
