Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition

This isn't square enix.

Adding auto attack and art cancelling from XC2 are the only changes I would except. But since it's classified as a remaster they'll mostly keeping the OG gameplay unchanged.

retard

Cancelling would be pretty hectic in XC1 since they autoattack while they move

I fuck, it's actually a remake.
Not sure if I like new designs.

It seems to me that they only remade the character models, enviorments look the same as Wii's to me, they probably only got a touch up.

Attached: XC2.0.jpg (1200x800, 239K)

Hopefully they fix the awful sidequests, topple2win combat, and completely boring second half of the game. I will never understand why people hold this game to such high regard. It's mediocre.

Don't bother. It doesn't get any better.

Torna is very good, and it feels closer to the first game in terms of tone than X or 2, so I'd say it's worth a play in preparation for this. It's also only about thirty hours long so it's easy to pick up and complete it in a relatively short time frame.

i'll finally play it since the face models are anime enough for me to enjoy. That's the only change I needed since I'm sure a lot of people were turned off by the awful models in the Wii game.

Compare that shot to the original and the difference is night and day. Fiora's model at least is nothing but an improvement.

they reworked the game in the XC2 engine, if you compare you can see things like grass is closer to how it looks in XC2 than XC1 grass for example. They also added in at least 1 new area (bionis shoulder, previously cut from XC1, is seen at the end of the teaser)

How will Yea Forums react when XB1D's plot derails from the original and takes place chronologically after XB1 but in another dimension where Alvis is the antagonist trying to become God of all Xenoblade universes and then the Zohar shits out Fei, KOS-MOS, Elma and Lin, and Rex and Malos out into XB1D's world?

The environments honestly only need texture enhancement, the modelling was already solid. Mechonis areas should look absolutely nuts in an engine with proper PBR textures.

I will keep telling you to stop posting this dumb meme

This but unironically.

MonolithSoft sold out to weebs, fuck everything and FUCK XC2 for letting this happen

I imagine the improved lighting will help the Mechonis areas a lot, too.

The picture seems to imply you need to get to Alcamoth using the shoulder now but earlier in the trailer they showed it in it's old spot in Eryth sea. I assume the thing can move so I guess the only excuse is that either this is the epilogue or some plot causes it move spots.

The original characters were shit, yes, but not as shit as generic, soulless animu trash for faggots.

They should have improved it instead of changing it.

#NotMyShulk

Shoulder would end up overlooking Eryth Sea and it's assumed they are going to add back whatever path existed from Makna to Shoulder and from Shoulder to Eryth Sea, instead of having the jarring transition from the nopon village they had originally.

I can’t believe they actually went back and tainted the original with this weebshit. MonolithSoft are dead to me.

Remake shulk looks way better but remake reyn looks worse. Fact.

Sharla actually looked better in-game than she did in her art

The dialog will be the same (hopefully) but If they add to ANY scene a moment where Shuk pulls an 0_0 expression I am fucking done.

There is no japanese humor in this game.

God I’d be fucking furious

oh no no no

Only for Sharla.

Sharla? More like Shartla!
Melia? More like Smellia!

It has HD Melia, new equipment for Melia, and new areas to explore as Melia. That's really all I need.

God, when did I become such a little bitch?

More suffering for Melia!

Wait...

If you're really lucky this game finally makes Thor notices the series and we get a Deep Rising set every game.

>new areas to explore as Melia
I'd rather just explore Melia

It's more like a mix of both.
It seems they added a higher polygon count to certain elements of the maps but left intact some others since they already look good enough with a high-res texture, new effects and lighting.

Just look at pick related; character models are obviously re-made from the grown up and there's more grass but that stick and the insect have the exact same polygon count but they just look better because they have better textures, shaders and lightning.

I'm not sure what else they will add, but I bet its post game, seeing as how this and 2's reality are linked together so tightly due to wanna be Vivic. Wouldnt be surprised if Rex and Pyra/Mythra and Shulk dont end up teaming up in some super gay shit.

Let's say they're recording some new dialogue for the Definitive Edition, but for whatever reason can't get Jenna Coleman back to voice Melia in the dub. Which of these options would you prefer?

2020 is the 10th anniversary of Xenoblade Chronicles and the Xenoblade franchise as a whole by extension. It's pretty obvious that this remake is happening at least partially because of that, I'm sure X will gets its chance soon enough.

Meyneth also had them.

Yeah, it’s odd how Dickson chewed him out for being so pasty when he was anything but, though that was probably due to graphical limitations. Makes a lot more sense for him to be pale now.

DE exists because they want to capitalise on the momentum the franchise has, they have a new studio with lots of new employees that need to get their feet wet, and it needs porting to their current engine.
There's not much to gain from porting XCX at this point.

So good.
I'm feeling a bit sad now that she misses such a large part of the game. Oh well.

I hope this becomes a unlockable costume for robot rule 63 shulk later.

Based on screenshots its using some older environment assets since in honestly they're still fine but with some changes done to anything that might stick out, its honestly hard to tell since it looks so accurate in every little detail which makes me thing that but they might have someone who's just fucking crazy on staff.
Lighting is using effects that are new to the engine meaning the XBX/XB2 engine is updated again, we just need to see if they managed to fix the resolution problems.

If it doesn't have you enthralled yet, its not gonna.

Port or not the shoulder is not just some "touchup". The place is huge. Even if they deleted all the villages the place would still be enormous and be filled with the usual Xenoblade shit. Just imagine the trip through Bionis Leg but there's another one about the same size after Makna Forest. That's what the shoulder means to this games pacing.

>>Possibly a new ending
why did you include this, everything up until that was right, having this as well makes you like an idiot and ruins your whole argument

I can’t wait to get an alternate ending where she wins!

or a harem ending at least

I mean if you consider 'the space station looks different now and those two other scientists are gone' a new ending he's probably right

Because if theres anything Tanaka does is listen to fans complaints.
A BIG one was how Melia was treated as soon as Fiora came back.
I'd imagine theyre going to do something, like they did with Nia in XC2.

He's talking about the fact that they're probably going to make the ending more in line with XB2

Shut up retard

Speculation from Japan is that they will let you visit the new world Shulk made.

It's a remaster
>"Xenoblade Definitive Edition" is the so-called "remastered version" of the Wii "Xenoblade" released in 2010.
>In the “Definitive Edition”, the graphic will be redrawn in HD resolution with the release of Nintendo Switch, and the main characters will appear in new modeling.

topics.nintendo.co.jp/c/article/8fb1cdfa-c7a0-11e9-b641-063b7ac45a6d.html?

Wouldn’t that really mess up the pacing? The plot barely moves in Makna as is

Theyre probably going to change the ending to be more in line with the stuff from XC2.

thanks user

You forgot the trailer confirming new armor and (seemingly) a new Monado, too.
And Alcamoth or some city that looks almost identical to it is in the Shoulder.

Xenoblade 2 is a much harder game to get into than Xenoblade 1

To me, "a new ending" means changing the conclusion of the story to something different, not modifying the layout of the background to fit an updated design, but w/e.
This is very wishful thinking and i wish for it too she deserved better

Just a guess. You don't immediately go to Valak despite being located on Bionis' invisible wristwatch so maybe it comes in later?

I'm expecting Bionis Shoulder to be slotted in between Frontier Village and Eryth Sea. it will have little to no plot going on and will act as a bettern transition between Makna and Eryth.

It'll be mainly used for sidequest and postgame stuff, which is perfectly fine with me.

Also I expect a postgame Land of Challenge where Rex and Elma make cameos, though I don't know if they would be playable.

They are going to rework certain scene with the xbc2 version of it, is damn obvious. Also, pretty sure they are going to tuned Alvis with shitloads of connections to the fact that he is Ontos. Hell, the main reason this remake exists is to make xbc1 be more in the line with xbc2, why do you think that faggot is desperately shitposting xbc2 right now?

Attached: IMG_20190316_211234.jpg (733x1168, 174K)

I think some dialogue should be reworked to have it make more sense with 2, but spoiling the revelations in 2 would be no good imo

Is the same damn alcamoth, you can see it from the shoulder.

Bionis is the first Titan but the revelation he's preggers and has to give birth to more titans drove Zanza off the deep end.

Takahashi really wants these sagas and shit happening

Do you actually imply the right one is the better character design?

I want them to revamp the combat, the first entry really was MMOlite in its basic mechanics with a hotbar instead of face buttons being used for arts, which is objectively worse and more prone to mistakes

>has to post 2 rare blades instead of party members and villains to push his agenda
Holy cope

I can't wait until the game confirms Alvis isn't Ontos (because Ontos is the black knight from X) and all you fags get BTFO

Yeah but it shouldn't be this close to the shoulder since it's position in Eryth Sea is really far away from the "head". I call plot shennanigans.

Will they add some scenes that shows Alvis being aware of his siblings suffering?

I heard the original plan was going to alcamoth by foot using the shoulder instead of the silly "nopon's water ball".

you're confusing new heads and time of day as a "new engine"
we went in-game yesterday and made location and time of day comparisons
its the exact same game with touch-ups

for instance the bottom pic can look identical but the mechonis has a new model, so parts of it are no longer 2d. it was one of those things that looked good until you went 1080p+

Fuck and I wanted to play Xenoblade
Should I now
1) Just play Xenoblade and fuck remake
2) Play Xenoblade 2 first

It's a remaster + expansion. Not a fucking port you absolute retard

Maybe they can expand on the Mechnois a bit more if they're adding stuff like the shoulder back in.

He isn’t aware. At most he will talk about him being completely cut off from the previous universe and whatever identity he used to have.

Wait for the remake, then play Xenoblade 2 after you finish it

That is enough, although brings up a problem: at the end he was rushing shulk to make a decision, with xbc2 now we know he did because the conduit was about fuck off which means he knows about the original universe.

Nope, just Shulk, Fiora, a brief glimpse of Reyn, Melia's back, and an extremely indistinct shot of Alvis from Shulk's vision.

He can know about its existence and the conduits presence without knowing about the events.

Will Definitive have dual audio?
Personally I don't think its needed as the English cast is pretty great, especially Adam Howden, his work alone made me like Shulk and got me more invested in him as a character
But it will just be nice addition to put an end to the sub/dub debate that arises in these types of games

>The Bionis head is much higher up than the shoulder is, so Alcamoth shouldn't be floating in space level with the shoulder
>Alcamoth is at the back of the Bionis head, not the front
There is absolutely no circumstance where Alcamoth should be visible from the Bionis shoulder. Something has clearly changed.

Well he’s not wrong that Alvis was probably rushing Shulk because the Conduit was disappearing, but I’m just explaining that Alvis might be completely seperated from being able to observe the other universe. And it would be better and more tragic that way since it means Zanza also would never have a chance of knowing the bigger picture surrounding his existence and relationship with Meyneth.

Alrest technically wasn't Earth because of the cloud sea, with that gone it's back to Earth. Deal with it.

Onthos was just lazy and sent Shulk and everyone back to the original Earth because there was no god there in the first place.
Just like real life.

Didn't dataminers find evidence that there was originally supposed to be another exit in Makna Forest around the waterfall? Or am I just imagining that.

Simple. They probably expanded Makna Forest so there's a proper path that leads into the Bionis Shoulder. From that point on, you can jump directly into the Eryth Sea, and boom. I think people are really overthinking things. After all, this was an entirely cut area. Properly fitting it into the map likely changed things around, but I doubt it's post game.

Kill Sharla
Marry Melia
Fuck Fiora

I always thought Makna Forest was lower than that. How the fuck did they get launched from the top the Bionis ass to that?

Is there anything the 3DS port added and fixed that could be part of the remaster?

Hot take, they mirrored everything and you're on the right shoulder, so it's between Eryth sea and Valak mountains.

OR they just didn't put in the Bionis's head yet.

more like how the fuck did they survive the fall from the jet of stomach acid or whatever that launched them THAT high

Has Tanaka said anything about the remaster? People keep saying its him on the designs but we have no confirmation that it's him. Honestly the style looks like they're trying to replicate Tanaka, if anything.
Honestly though, I wish Takahashi had oversaw the design creation for the Blades. I don't necessarily mind the guest artists, but some of the blade designs were really jarring. I don't understand why he didn't have Saito do them in his art style, or something.

rimjobs and cunnilingus

Probably because even with inconsistency, Malos, Jin, Amalthus, Architect, etc have the best major figure/antagonist designs in the Blade series. He can’t push his XC2 BAD narrative like that.

I don't think he's tweeted anything since the beginning of September, everything there is from August.

Oh god this. And less RNG weather bullshit drops. Took forever to get the super rare material for the colony.

>even Saitom doesn't know if it's a remaster or a remake

I don't think we have to worry about drops anymore. Someone did an analysis on the trailer, and it looks like item orbs might not be returning. I think they might have swapped them with Collection Points from XC2.

snu snu

You sure about that? I'd expect that they just disabled them to show off the environments in the trailer.

Can't wait for Monolith to hire Mizuryuu Kei, ShindoL and Radiohead for guest character designs!

I don't know why they'd do that. You can briefly see a treasure chest behind Shulk as he's running with the Monado in that Colony 9 cutscene. It'd probably make more sense to slap in collection points anyway for convenience, since you can get thinks in bulk.

i'm curious if he will get any more lore on Mumkhar's wrecked colony

>You can briefly see a treasure chest behind Shulk as he's running with the Monado in that Colony 9 cutscene.
Wait, what? Did chests show up in the original cutscenes too? I could've sworn that they didn't. Same for the orbs.

Wasn't that colony on the Bionis Shoulder? They might even expand Mumkhar's arc so he doesn't end such an awkward death. I doubt it though, since there really wasn't much of an issue anyway,

Why would they use XC1's old HWT&L engine when they have a nice contemporary version of it?

>Laods of famous gane designers and anime mangakas started doing porn
I know. I was making a funny because of how crass those three are, even for Monolith.

That would contradict everything Dunban said earlier in the game. Since he claimed Homs rarely traveled even to the forest, and the bird people were a myth.

>sell remake
>it's secretly a sequel/alternate story

It would confuse the shit out of new players while not taking advantage of the hype a direct XC1 sequel would create when announced. You're dumb.

That never made sense to begin with, considering Dunban later goes on to say to the high entia that they ignored their messages for help when fighting the mechon on sword valley

Dunban's just a retard who didn't even know that the Colonies tried to get help from the High Entia during the battle of Sword Valley, despite being practically the most important person involved in that fight and someone who should theoretically know a lot about what forces may or may not be coming as backup.

>Instead of the Monado transforming it's look after Prison Island, it changes it's look after Alvis shows Shulk how to use the Monado properly to kill the Telethia
>The Prison Island shenanigans still serve to unlock it's real power and free Zanza though
How would you feel? It might explain why it looks like that, since naturally the Shoulder comes before Alcamoth, and Prison Island. Of course it could also just be them chilling on the Shoulder post Alcamoth, since I don't think you're supposed to see Melia's head wings until after Alcamoth, so..

Otharon's the one who says that. It's still absurd that Dunban didn't know, but it's not an outright plot hole or anything.

Also It'd be cool if he became a permanent party member in NGplus after you beat himBird people might avoided the shoulder because the homs there were savages, like Mumkhar, that could be what destroyed it to, or Bird people offed it themselves.

Damn my memory must be fucked then. I was almost certain it was Dunban, can you post the scene?

Did the High Entia even aid the Homs in the battle of Sword Valley? Besides, it's not like he said never, he simply said "rarely".

He called them a myth

What?

Call me crazy but I'd love Kanten to do a character design for Monolith. He's not great, but I like his stuff.

Hopefully they cut down on some of the timed quests at least

There's still time to pretty things up a bit. Xeno2 looked rough in it's first trailer, too.
My only real complaint is that new shulk doesn't look as angry as the old model did.
In the original, you can see the pure despair and hatred in his face when Fiora dies. I just can't see the new model being able to express it with the same impact.

I really really really hope they delete at least 3/4 of the shitty sidequests.

THAT'S DUNBAN OVER THERE

Shulk MIGHT have made a different universe, it's really never elaborated on and maybe the remake will go a little farther to keep things in line with 2

For such an autistic fanbase, how have you faggots not pointed out that XC2 reuses nearly all of the enemy monsters from XC, just with some better lighting?

A XC is stupidly easy for them since all the monsters reused in XC were graphically tweaked. A XC remake was in their plan for a long time.

The new models instantly have more emotion, or expression for that matter. It honestly boils down to the voice acting still being cut and clear.
This, really. My only issue with XC1 were all the damn timed quests. Especially everything from Sword Valley, to the Mechonis since it gets utterly vanquished thanks to Zanza.

youtube.com/watch?v=DlIhKRv3dXE

Remember the Makna Forest connects to Valak Mountain as well, AKA the right shoulder, so it'd probably connect to Bionis Shoulder in a similar manner.

>Sequel has shares many enemies from it's predecessor
Is this supposed to be news that needs pointing out?

At that point, they'd probably remake a good portion of Makna Forest so it can properly connect to both Valak, and Bionis Shoulder properly. I really hope they remame the Shoulder, though. It's likely just a placeholder for its real name anyway, now that I think about it. What would it be named, though?

The new models do have the potential to be more expressive. I was just saying in that show it didn't match the same one the original was going for.
I've no doubt they can make it express even more than the original did.

Has anyone tried to find the spot in the original shoulder to compare shots with the remaster?

youtube.com/watch?v=ApfIi5ZDC5Q

I imagine it wouldn't have one. The area that everyone calls Gaur Plain is just called Bionis Leg by the game, so I wouldn't be surprised if they kept it as Bionis Shoulder.

They were done by different artists yes, but the same 3D model artists. It's why the 2D art for the nomura and other squeenix guys looks so different

I think the new one is probably just unfinished. The fact that all of the weird stuff like the missing geometry and the low-detail Alcamoth is related to the unreachable areas makes me think the background elements just aren't done yet or have been temporarily removed for other reasons.

But XC2 was made by monolithsoft

Who's making this?

You're a retard if you don't think they'll use the DE to fix XC's ending so the space station scene matches XC2's.

Monolith, albeit the new studio.

There's no reason why it can't have plot relevance during the main story either. It's between Makna, and Eryth Sea, and it was stated that the plot would be retold, on top of having new additions. There's quite a bit they could do with the Bionis Shoulder in terms of main story plot.
>Egil and Arglas stood there in a flashback, possibly suggesting the Giants lived there on the Ancient Bionis
>Apparently it was a Colony, likely Mumkhar's before being destroyed in the past

But user, this time around it'll be worth it as completing Colony 6 reconstruction will unlock Juju as a party member!

It's possible, but I kind of don't think they'd bother implementing the shoulder unless it was going to be in the way they originally intended.

I know I'm just setting myself up for disappointment by hoping for this, but damn I want it. It makes so much sense.

She quite literally joins the party anyway on the Mechonis as a guest, and even goes against her brother, even if it meant death. There's no reason why she shouldn't be a part of the party. She has plenty motive to join anywho, since Zanza not only destroyed her home, and killed her people, but also killed her brother. Plus she was the one to put Mayneth's Spirit in Fiora, which might have just saved her life, so she wouldn't feel forced at all as a party member.
How do we know it's one of their new studios? I assume that could be true, with Soraya or Takahashi supervising things, but I don't know. If not though, it'd make sense. Especially since they're likely working on XC3 at the main studio.

I really hope that Monado is just a redesigned Monado II. In general, it looked too identical to the Monado I. I doubt they'd spoil post Mechonis content in the trailer either, but who knows.

they'd have to rework the game to get the shoulder placed in the main campaign
however making a "postgame" map would be even more difficult, but it looks like this is what they're going with

I want Melia to be happy

People keep saying this, but the Shoulder was raided by Telethia in the 2nd half, and it's borderline underwater in the ending. Things are prone to retcon, and change, but I'm skeptical of it being post game due to its position on the Bionis, and the flow of the main story.

Mark my words here, but I'm expecting there to be DLC for this that involves Rex and the gang, similar to how they had Shulk and his white of a girlfriend

Valak never becomes inaccessible. It's just the Mechonis locations (minus the Fallen Arm) that disappear.

Xenoblade X is fucking shit, that's why it got ignored.

And that's why it's eventual remaster is going to fix its issues so it can shine properly. Calling it shit only further solidifies why it needs to be recrafted properly this time.

>Retell the plot, but make major changes in the necessary areas to properly setup for X2
>Fix QoL shit

Boom, fixed.

Just wait for X2

What I want is XCX2, but this game means we may get an X remaster before that.
The people at Monolith are huge mech fans so its just a matter of when.

Valak Mountain remains fully accesable except for the exit to the hand/sword because sword valley is nolonger accesable.

>Monolith's next game is X2
>X definitive edition is released afterwards, just like XB2 and XBDE

People keep saying
>"Just wait for X2"
But it'd make far more sense to give XCX1 the same treatment XC1 is getting right now, or a borderline remake since it would apparently cost as much to port, as it would to make a new title in Takahashi's words. Not only would it likely fix a lot of its issues, but it'd make it easier to get into X in general since a lot of people either haven't played it, don't own a Wii U anymore, or have forgotten the plot entirely. That way they can gauge people's interest in the X series so they can make a sequel. I doubt it'd be much of an issue anyway since Xenoblade is relatively popular anywho, and the marketing would likely be good.

>Jumping from X2 after making a definitive version of XC1
Wouldn't it be better to just focus on the mainline for now? Ideally they could go

They probably could get away with that for X seeing as last few cutscenes of X were all that really mattered.

When exactly did this happen? I'm pretty sure it was always stated to a "side series" from the get go. The only people who got confused, were actual mongoloids who weren't paying attention.

0 EXP mode

I hope they at least incorporate the bonus EXP system of 2 so doing all sidequests doesn't land you OP for the entire game.

No, he's right. The environments in XB1 were definitely bigger. The downside of that was that a lot of it was just empty space.
They probably won't do it, but I'd love it they just let you level up or down using bonus exp whenever you want, like in XB2's NG+.

I hope they add the fashion gear option from X to this.

Attached: Nice_going_rook_now_try_this_on_for_size.jpg (328x639, 79K)

Since you're a coping XC2 toddler, I'll be generous with you. If you were to slap all the Titans in the game into one Titan, including Torna, it'd be just as huge.

I don't know why people struggled with the fashion so much. I wore the clothes I thought were cool in sets, and I still beat the game easily.

You have to remember that the Tornan titan is one massive, seamless area, though. With that in mind I'm pretty sure it's larger than all but the absolute biggest single areas in both main games.

It is.
>Tantal > Uraya > Torna
In terms of how big them are, honestly.

Is this for the Switch? Finally, now I can grasp what the actual fuck is happening Xenoblade 2 now. Story made no fucking sense to me. 10 minute exposition dump near the end of the game certainly didn't help.

What were you confused about? You should be able to understand pretty much all of of 2 without touching 1, and I don't imagine playing it would help you all that much.

I still don't get what blades even are. Who the fuck was that guy at the very end, who had half his body torn away like two dimensions were fighting over him? I still have no fucking clue who these blades are supposed to be within the context of the in-game universe. In all the time Rex salvaging scrap, he didn't once think to himself:
>hmm, kind of odd that clouds are dense enough to have the viscosity of water, maybe there's more going onto the world than I know
Honestly, the last hour or so of the game was such a clusterfuck

I'd argue its main strength is in world building. Just the concept of a world composed of 2 giant titans is interesting enough but then you add in the 10/10 soundtrack and interesting lore.
I'd argue FFX is the antithesis to this game in that regard: it's very similar in its execution but the world is extremely boring and uninteresting to traverse beyond the mystery behind Sin.

Let me guess, some 2 shillfag told you you don't need to play 1 to understand and play 2. I see people doing this all the time and it boggles my mind as to why when both games' stories are directly related.

>I still don't get what blades even are
They're artificial lifeforms made from DNA databanks whose purpose is to monitor and help further along the evolution of a new human race after an extinction event.

>Who the fuck was that guy at the very end
Klaus is a scientist that messed with an interdimentional reality accumulator in the hope of creating a better universe but instead ended up genociding the entire population of Earth and getting half of his body stuck in another dimension.

I assumed Gormott was the largest single area in XC2.

Nothing he said he didn't get would require playing 1 first.

Or even better, some of the clothes.
>XCX bunny outfit on Sharla.

He obviously doesn't understand who Klaus is meant to be and his importance in the plot so you're wrong there. Stop telling people it's fine to play 2 without having played 1.

Basically all you need to know about the game's lore is explicitly given to you during Klaus' lore dump and no prior knowledge of Xenoblade is required to understand it.
youtube.com/watch?v=R5AOKHyg6TU

>In all the time Rex salvaging scrap, he didn't once think to himself:
>>hmm, kind of odd that clouds are dense enough to have the viscosity of water, maybe there's more going onto the world than I know
Rex grew up with the cloud sea, why would he think it's weird?
But you're silly if you don't realize that he knew there was more going on in it. When the party falls into Morytha, he immediately knows what it is ("This must be the place us salvagers call the Land of Morytha"). He literally says at the start of the game that there's a bunch of crazy shit from lost civilizations in the cloud sea, and that part of the reason he works as a salvager is because he hopes that one day he can find a way up the World Tree 'hidden below the clouds'.

The impact of the twist is lost and goes over your head if you haven't played 1.

Which is why people only ever tell you to play 2 first if you say you have no intention of ever playing 1.

That's irrelevant to the original argument. Xenoblade 2 gives you everything you need to know about its plot, playing Xenoblade 1 isn't going to inform that guy any more about what the Architect was trying to do or what Blades are.

Wait, Klaus is the protagonist from X1? Guess I'm never playing it anyway because I already know everything goes tits up.

>having ads

Yikes.

This is what 2 did to the franchise. Enjoy your shitty cliche moe characters with big tits :)

Imagine having taste this bad.

No.
Klaus is the scientist from the cutscene at the start of XB2's chapter 10 who wrecked Earth trying to create a universe, because he was dissatisfied with the state of humanity.
He managed to create a new universe, but was split into two people in the process. One went to the new universe, the other was left behind in the ruins of Earth. The latter is the Architect, the old dude you met at the end of the game.
In an attempt to atone for his actions, Klaus used the technology in the First Low Orbit Station to recreate life and a new form of humanity, and made the Blades (who were adapted from technology that was intended as some kind of replacement for human brain cells) as a safeguard to guide and monitor the new humanity because he was worried that they'd just end up the same as before, and someone just like his old self would come along and destroy everything all over again.
Thousands of years go by, humanity ends up the same anyways, and then Klaus got super depressed and stopped giving a shit about it all. When Amalthus showed up looking for answers, he hid himself and let Amalthus take the Aegises (who are the supercomputers basically managing the Blade system). He didn't do anything when Malos was awakened and assumed he was made by the Architect to wreck everything, because Klaus figures it was all doomed anyways.

At the end of the game he's aware that his half in the other universe is going to die, which will kill him too. He also ends up finally realizing that the world he created wasn't really as big of a fuck up as he thought it was, so he tries to do what he can in his last moments to help the party stop Malos.

Give me a 100% frame-perfect remake of the original, but with the graphical upgrade from the announcement trailer, and I'm perfectly happy. Anything beyond that is gravy.

Xenoblade's biggest flaw was its shit graphics, even back when it came out. The game single-handedly spearheaded HD texture packs in Dolphin, because the need to free the game from its original technical limitations was just that great.
An official version of that is golden

The only Melia route leads off a cliff into the endless ocean.

endless ocean game starring Melia? fuck it I'd play it

The armors were trash anyways. I’d gladly be rid of them, for fewer, but better designed outfits. And fuck that Jew, Trump.

>no Norio fucking Wakamoto for Mumkhar anymore
I don't think I'll be able to accept this. I gues they could reuse his old lines, but then it means no other new encounter, and things played exactly the same

Are you retarded?

Norio is alive and still doing work, dingus. You might be thinking of Otsuka.

So outside of the Bionis Shoulder, there was an area of the Mechonis that got cut? I can't imagine what it would be since the Field, Core, Fallen Arm, and Agniratha cover most of it. Maybe the Mechonis Wings?

That series still makes me bitter because I was playing it when the police came to arrest me.
Worse yet, I could never take a photo in game that was good enough for a magazine cover of a blue tang. I feel only disgust when I see one of these things in real life.

Oh nice, I checked, I read back then he retired. Though it's pretty much true, since 2016 he only had two minor roles, according to a quick wiki checking. I'll check with more reliable sources. But I guess he'd be cool enough to come back for a few lines if needs be.

This was the first thing i thought of and hope for when this got announced, Melia's treatment in this game was actually awful and is pretty much the only big dent in my playthrough for it.

The real problem is i think fiora just shouldnt of ever joined the party again, I think it would of all around been way more memorable if she were an unwilling antagonist that shulk would have to mercy kill.

Every God damn thread. If you want a gears or saga remake go fucking ask SE/Bamco. Go cry to them maybe then they will feel sorry and remake more soundtracks.

Nah i keep getting recommended a pyra daki everytime i look up the game, I think this game just kind of tainted the image of the series.

No. The entire fucking point of the game is to avenge and then save your girlfriend.

>That XC2 merchandise
I don't even know what to say.
Nobody has been talking about that for a good 100 posts now. What the fuck are you talking about?

It monolith soft other studio...monolith soft.

I tried searching for xenoblade on my phone and two browsers without adblock and couldn't get anything like that to show up. I guess I'm not horny enough to be blessed with the titty mousepad ads.

Is it so unrealistic for Shulk to gain feelings for Melia over the course of the journey? At the end of the day, Fiora and Shulk were nothing more than close childhood friends. They weren't in a relationship, and they weren't lovers. Feelings might have been there, but shit happens. This is coming from someone who thinks Shulk and Fiora are the true pairing.
My main issue with people suggesting a Xenosaga remake are really the following reasons.
>They'd have to completely build a new world since the Xenosaga games didn't exactly have open areas to explore like Xenoblade does
>There's currently no point since Takahashi is likely doing his Perfect Works with Blade, and is having far more success than he ever did with Saga, or Gears for that matter
>Bamco is playing ball for now, but who knows what they could pull in the midst of things to throw everything to pieces
Otherwise, I'd be game for a remaster. I think Takahashi himself said if the funds rolled through, he'd be pleased to bring it back. There'd likely be a ton of story changes though since the games were extensively plot heavy, but meh. XS 1+2 never got translated, so I have no clue what additions or changes were made.

This isn't official merchandise, user. That very kind of unofficial merch exists for about everything.

>Is it so unrealistic for Shulk to gain feelings for Melia over the course of the journey?
If he had gotten over Fiora and gotten to know Melia, sure. That'd take a couple of months at most.

He knew her for like a week before Fiora came back.

>That'd take a couple of months at most.
Meant at least, I'm a retard.

It'd be absolutely unrealistic. Shulk is the densest motherfucker in their planet AND the biggest fucking nerd. He wouldn't notice Melia's advances even if Riki pointed at her feathery minge with landing lights.

Barely anyone gives a flying fuck about Fiora. They didn’t do enough to make people care. You could easily have written the story with Fiora dying for good at some point instead of lol I’m just gonna change everything so Fiora can do a reset on life.

My greatest hope for XB3 is that it finally drops the love triangle crap and just sticks to a single love interest.

The triangle was actually done very well in XC2 if you can see past the memes. It greatly helped Nia growing as a character, resolving her own issues.

That's bullshit, and you know it. They handled her character nicely, with the exception of her getting her body back.

Well, Monolith Soft is actually the most soulful jrpg developer there is, of course they do

It would feel dumb and cheesy, but that's how I like my vidyas, so I would grin like a faggot

>Melia is the Telethia in XCX

Does anyone have a shot of the menu background for Eryth Sea/Alcamoth with the feathers on it? I'm curious if they're the same as the ones on the new logo.

If they didn't censor the outfits in Xeno 2, what the fuck makes you think they will in this?

>I hope they drop the love triangle bullshit
Seriously, this. It's like I'm watching episodes of Macross without the mechs. I hope that theory about the protagonist & deuteroganist or XC3 being a reincarnated Klaus and Galea with new identities ends up becoming a reality. It'd honestly be really based.

I, for one, would welcome the influx of Telethia porn, of which none exist. You'd think bird people turning into telepathic monsters would tickle at least one degenerate drawfag's fetishes, but you'd be wrong.

don't even joke about that

Same.
Similarly, the lack of xb2 titan porn is also disappointing.

>Only Titan "porn" is a minuscule amount of barely suggestive chibi form Azurda pictures
>No facesitting
>No walking on Gormott's clit
>No Titan-on-Titan mating

Speaking of people turning into Telethia, are the High Entians transforming into them supposed to be a reference to the Wels experiments in Gears?
That reminds me, what if Alvis didn't have an Artifice, but his own personal Telethia in the remaster? A mutated telepathic dragon can rival an alien mecha in terms of coolness factor.

Even on the SFW front, nobody's tried to come with designs for what any of the Blades from 2 would look like as Titans or vice versa. People are so unoriginal.

It’s a shame but that’s the nature of things these days. OC is dead and ridiculed for the most part.

Oh hey, I drew that map. Didn't know anyone would save it.

3DS version will still be superior, especially because you can play the undub

but the 3DS version is the only version of the game that doesn't include a japanese VA option by default

There are few things that you never joke about. Holocaust? Hilarious. 9/11? Fun for the whole family.
But some things are better left in the darkness that they reside in, you can joke about anything but him.

I like that they are adding new content, it gives me a good excuse to replay it.
However, it annoys me that this happened before Xenoblade X got ported, how long will that game be trapped in Wii U?

Holy fuck no, I completely removed that terrible faggot from my mind. I had no problems doing filler shit in XC2's beginning of the chapter 4, but I'm not sure I can stomach juju's bullshit again

Attached: 1245366535520.jpg (954x623, 256K)

For a long time, if ever. Right fucking now was the perfect opportunity to port XCX in 2020, and showing up a 5 second teaser at the end of XCX's port trailer at the very end of the Direct for a late 2020/early 2021 XCX-2. And yet they did a XC1 remake. If that's not a strong "never ever", I don't know what is. XCX-2 can't be a thing without a XCX port, as too few played it. Besides, making sure players can get both a XC1 up to today's standards and XC2 on the same console definitely goes into a whole XC3 being next.

Attached: 76603037_p8.png (600x600, 9K)

Plus weren't they developing a new medieval IP?
I don't think porting XCX would take that long desu, just outsource it.

>Telethia
You do know he had one? it saved Shulk and co defeated Xord and get out of the Mine, Metal face will appear and Dunban and Dickson try to save them, just before Metalface can attack them with a special attack A unique Telethia appears that flies back to Alvis and seems to have been send by him.

Weird, I forgot all about that. Hopefully since the telethia models will be more defined this time, we'll get a better look at his.

Considering Monolith absolutely DO listen to player's feedbacks (Takahashi said as much in an interview), and considering they knew XCX's artstyle wasn't well received, especially in Japan, even moreso than Yea Forumss hyperbolic shitposting, it's pretty safe to assume he just wouldn't simply port it, especially after his "recreating the game would be hard". Recreating is a word with a lot of weight. Maybe they're waiting until the next Nintendo console to do it, though I expect them to launch an XC3 the way they did XC2, in the first few months in the console's life.

Just gonna leave this one here. Yes I know it is in foreign but you get the gist.

Also this is on a browser I never use so it isn't like it is linking me to degenerate shit because of search history

I know you guys just want to see Gramps fucking Nia but I am really damn curious as to what Gramps was a s a blade. Was he just his babby form but now he just never stops growing? It obviously can;t be luck he can talk since he's apparently the first Titan born from a first generation one.

I don't think we'll be getting another new console for a good 4 years tops, honestly. By then, XC3 should already have been released. If anything, the X series will be getting the glory of revival on the new consoles.

Did the same as this guy and used a browser I don't regularly use (first picture), then one I do use.
No ads showed up on the first page of results, so I ended up going to the second.

Get to play it on couch, comfy af.

It really reminds me of that Telethia from XCX.

Are you sure it wasn't just some random Telethia he used, not necessarily one specific to him? I'd assume all of the members of Zanza's trinity could control them like that.

Nah, he has his own signature Telethia named Sani.

He spoke to it in the specific cutscene, and it has a unique model wich Dickson[/spoiler didnt seem to have any unique telethias to controll. also Its one of the spirit bosses when you make your way to the final boss after the point of no return.
so im just assuming its his special telethia.

yea Sani is the name.

also sorry i messed up my spoiler tag.

this but unironically

Dickson does have one (At least according to the wiki)
