Takahashi revealed that he actually prefers Western games to those developed in his own country - in fact, he states that he has little interest in games made in Japan. He feels that many Japanese developers are limited because they tailor their titles almost exclusively to suit the tastes of Japanese players, and therefore miss out on a massive global audience:
>Japanese tastes are unique compared to those in the West, so if you focus solely on gamers within Japan, you'll always find yourself running into this problem. (I think this is easy to see when you notice that FPS-style games sell only around 100,000 copies or so in Japan, as opposed to 10 million worldwide.) This may be a surprise to hear, but I don't have very much interest in "current" Japanese anime and games, and I don't play them, either. (I do get hands-on with them for future reference, though, and I still love older games that came out 30 or so years ago.) Most of the movies, TV dramas, novels, and games I pick up are made in the West. I don't do this deliberately; that just turned out to be the kind of thing I like. As a result, I've come to the realization that it's best to try and organically make the kind of things I like, or want. nintendolife.com/news/2015/12/xenoblade_chronicles_x_creator_tetsuya_takahashi_prefers_western_games_to_japanese_ones
>interracial couple >it's 60 fps on pc I'll probably just end up emulating it instead. Might still buy it if the special edition is priced reasonably, love steelbooks
Lincoln Edwards
Quite literally everyone above me is fucking retarded
That purple robot chick has a kino design unironically. Apparently it's a fusion of those two characters or some shit though? Is the nerd-looking guy supposed to be the floaty things around her?
That last line makes me want to buy it. Screw trends, and make what you want! If it sells well, even better.
Eli Torres
Guys what if: >The fusions happen because both people share the same/very similar desires >For example, Lanz and Sena fuse because they both want to protect Noah and Mio, hence the shielded fusion, despite Sena being a DPS character >Noah and Mio are both off-seers, so that probably has something to do with it >Eunie and Taion fuse because they both have a strong desire to be bred by Noah, hence the highly sexual body
Eli Moore
Seethe, tranny
Bentley Kelly
Fuck Off Back To /pol/ You fucking board-shitting, thread-ruined complete and utter NIGGERS. Or better yet. Go suck a fucking shotgun right now.

>I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE'S A SINGLE DARK SKINNED CHARACTER IN MY XENOBLADE VIDEO GAME >THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED EVER BEFORE IN THE HISTORY OF THE XENO SERIES >HOW COULD TAKAHASHI BETRAY US LIKE THIS >AIEEEEEEEEEE SAVE ME TRUMP-SAMA
Tie a fucking rope around your pudgy flabby necks, go outside for the first time this month, tie it around a tree and fucking KILL YOURSELF. You subhuman discord-raiding /pol/tard utter fucking cunts. Get the FUCK OUT.
Did X promote racemixing? Did X promote your childhood friend getting blacked? Kill yourself tranny.
Nolan Wilson
I'm 100% serious, please improve the human race right this moment and end your miserable life. Your long-suffering relatives can finally breathe a sigh of relief and move on with their lives, safe in the knowledge they won't have to deal with you turning into any more of an embarrassment for them. Or if you're too much of a fucking pussy then at least FUCK OFF BACK TO /POL/
Cooper Lewis
This interview is nearly 10 years old, it's from before X was even released and 2 was in pre-production
Jaxson Richardson
You will NEVER be a woman
John Hall
>Everyone who disagrees with me is a tranny! You will NEVER be welcome on this board no matter how many times you try to shit it up with your /pol/tard seething. We all know you don't give the slightest HINT of a fucking shit about the Xeno series, Takahashi, Monolithsoft or anything. Your sole purpose is to make this board even more unusable because you're too much of a fucking incel shithead to do anything else with your pathetic life. KILL YOURSELF NOW /POL/TARD
Understandable, i'm so fucking sick of high school shit
Luke Reyes
I don't care for the franchise to begin with.
Eli Carter
Cope. Persona is here to stay.
Adam Perry
I'll probably get it eventually. I still have the rest to play through. I only have X
Andrew Rivera
>black people have NEVER existed in any form of xenoblade content until THIS. GAME. can't wait for this game to outsell 2 and be remembered as kino incarnate
I haven't played them but it seems to me like persona at least justifies it's high school setting compared to stuff where they are in highschool just because
Noah Lopez
How though. There are more hot bitches in the Xeno series than any other alive JRPG franchise.
Thomas Torres
>This may be a surprise to hear, but I don't have very much interest in "current" Japanese anime and games Could have fooled me. The writing in Xenoblade 2 seems like it could have come out of any generic anime JRPG nowadays.
Noah Kelly
Please stop engaging these /pol/tard discord raiders in good faith. They don't give a shit about Xenoblade, I'd be shocked if they've played a single Xeno game in their lives. They just saw a black character in a videogame and are here to screech and shitpost about it.
Jeremiah Morris
>Emma >Black For someone claiming everyone but you is clueless you're surely as retarded as what you're spouting. Damn.
Caleb Wood
Awful voice acting. I don't want to hear a couple of of bongs going "Bloody 'ell wot 'ave we got 'ere then".
Jayden Jenkins
Imagine seething this much lmao Don't forget to dilate today too
Leo Lewis
>Emma You can't even spell the characters names correctly. Go back. Post about it in /pol/ if having a single black character in a game triggers you that much.
Levi Flores
>Takahashi revealed that he actually prefers Western games to those developed in his own country Based. Which is probably why Xenoblade 1,X & 2 are actually good.
Charles Anderson
The grass is always greener
Ryder Powell
You need meds to seethe this hard at the truth that 3 has toned down designs and interracial blacked shit. 1 and 2 were the good part of this series, 3 is shaping up to be injected politics because the game got too popular. Its retarded of you to deny it
Levi Bailey
>I don't want to hear a couple of of bongs going "Bloody 'ell wot 'ave we got 'ere then". That's the most kino part of the series though
>3 has toned down designs and interracial blacked shit. I'm honestly baffled that theres people like you actually existing.
Brayden Thomas
Imagine failing so hard as a human that you're reduced to pretending to be a fan of a videogame series you don't give a shit about and have probably never played. Just so you can falseflag and further shit up the already defiled corpse of Yea Forums with your /pol/tard threadshitting. Kill yourself.
Xavier Smith
>WHAT IS THIS BROWN SKINNED CHARACTER DOING IN MY VIDEOGAMES >HOW COULD TAKAHASHI DO THIS >REEEEEEE THIS IS WHITE GENOCIDE >SAVE ME /POL/ >SAVE ME TRUMP
>Which is probably why Xenoblade 1,X & 2 are actually good. Hahahahahahahah
Aiden Martinez
>Takahashi revealed that he actually prefers Western games to those developed in his own country - in fact, he states that he has little interest in games made in Japan.
>Accuse someone of raiding >Do raiding yourself Resetera is truly a treasure of mental illness to have you be this rent free. Also none of those are black, this forced nigger in the screen is. Learn the difference.
>What convinced you not to buy Xenoblade 3? Xenoblade 2
James Reed
I don't give a fuck that Taion is black. I fucking hate that the game is promoting race mixing with the CHILDHOOD FRIEND of the MC. That is fucked up and if you don't see a problem with that then you need to kys. I mean, you will anyway, since you're a fucking tranny.
Michael Turner
Looks a lot like elma ngl
John Gutierrez
>I'VE NEVER PLAYED A SINGLE XENO GAME BEFORE >MY ENTIRE KNOWLEDGE OF THE XENO SERIES IS SEEING PYRA IN SMASH >TETSIYA TAKAHASHI? WHO IS THAT? >ALL I KNOW IS THERE'S THIS ONE BROWN CHARACTER AND THE JEWS ARE RESPONSIBLE Fuck Off Back To /pol/ And Never Come Back Or Better Yet Kill Yourselves
Carter Brooks
I'm sorry that chad fucked your childhood friend irl, user, but you need to move on.
Jaxon White
then why are his games 110% weebshit compare this garbage to other japanese games like dark souls, nioh, etc
Logan Walker
Is this where we're at now?
If a game has a character that has a slightly darker complexion than white, we will be unable to ever have threads discussing the game without shitposting?
I'm genuinely curious what Takahashi thinks of metroid prime since it is perhaps the most lauded western made Nintendo game there is
Liam Perez
>REEEEEEE ONE OF THE 8 PARTY MEMBERS IS BLACK >I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS GEORGE SOROS Kill yourself.
Nolan Allen
Elma is literally disguises herself as a black, big lips woman. Who is black for 99% of the game. And then it's revealed that she's an alien.
Maybe you should stop being retarded? Or maybe you should kill yourself? I know you're traumatized by the fact that you enjoy getting cucked and fucked by big black men, but maybe you shouldn't look so screwable?
Would fusion of 2 guys/gals be considered gay as fuck and would heterosexual fusion mean one of them is a tranny?
Jaxon Mitchell
There's a simple solution, either: 1. Completely ignore the threads. 2. Don't engage with them in good faith as they don't give a shit about Xenoblade, and tell these /pol/tard election tourists to FUCK OFF.
Camden Green
Dont worry politicfag, you made it obvious enough you're here just to inject your shit like this nigger is. We get it, you're mad sites exist where people dont think like you do and are pushing back against this shit, go back to your safe place resetranny
Nicholas Sullivan
Your home is /pol/ Fuck off back there and stay there.
>Don't engage with them >tell these /pol/tard election tourists to FUCK OFF
Just go with option 1. They do it to farm (You)'s so not replying is the best way to handle it. I wish people would learn this.
Christian Smith
>disguises herself Therefore she isnt black. >you enjoy getting cucked and fucked by big black men, You are projecting, maybe thats why you like this blacked shit that they added so much. Not surprising in the slightest since sane people are pushing back or making it clear they dont like it. Poor blacked cuck, out of place and life.
Asher Reed
Just go to the xeno general on /vg/ at least there is actual discussion about all the games
Evan Howard
Eh... sounds like you're the one dilating to me. Are you still upset that Desmond fucked your crush in high school? Seriously, has it lived rent free in your head for 30 years? It's time to get out of your mother's basement user. Its not healthy.
Jace Sanders
The verdict is the mods are fags and refuse to deport these /pol/ election tourists back to the subreddit they came from. And just let them shit up any possibility of discussing Xenoblade Chronicles 3 without them screeching about 1 character not being white enough for them.
Grayson Clark
I don't know anything about Xenoblade, but there's a lot of shitposting about it being pozzed, so I'm just going to go with that and lambast the game for it whenever there's a thread. It's not like I'm going to play it either way.
It's the usual Yea Forums cycle >people make jokes about things that are clearly jokes >newfags trying to fit in think it's not a joke >more newfags come, becomes part of Yea Forums culture Best thing about it here is I'll be bored of it soon and start skipping XB3 threads, so when the game comes out, i won't get any spoilers when discussing it.
Michael Morgan
I skipped 2 but 3 looks much more tolerable and less cringe
John Russell
I'm sorry you never experienced teenage love and are upset that Jamal or Deshawn fucked your crush or w/e. But it's time to let go and move on. Or at least cope about it on Reddit or /pol/ instead of making it impossible to discuss XBC3 without your wailing.
Gavin Robinson
Why are you fantasizing about me now? Are you that far gone you push your blacked shit on others too now? How sad. Not surprising that people like you support this, I guess not taking meds for a very long time leads to this
Connor Hernandez
>Projecting user... you are so cute!!! CUTE.
Kayden Perry
All this falseflagging just make me want to buy it more
Luis Mitchell
Same, I honestly just love triggering troons and helping them suicide the Larp is worth it
Awww... she's in denial... CUTE! Want a treat girl! Here's some (you's)! Now bark!!!
Matthew James
In the last few months I had some good RL experiences(the only ones in the last ten years or so) and about then I realized that I am only using jrpgs(and visual novels) as a way to haphazardly plug the leaks in my social and love life and take my mind off of them. I am still pirating XB3 though.
Grayson Cruz
I mean kind of. Elma is an alien simping for the human race and over the entire game you keep bringing more aliens into the city. They clearly mingled.
Gavin Watson
Yeah, pretty much, I don't care about the game either way, I'm just here to shitpost and farm (you)s. The more annoyed and angry people get, the funnier the threads become.
Aiden Robinson
Did it honestly take so few words to mindbreak you? Lol, I feel bad for the game having such pathetic "defenders" now
Cameron Hernandez
what made you so boring user remember the fun times we used to have?
Isaac Brooks
lol you think that retard played the game?
Nicholas Foster
What is it??? Want another (you)?? Here it is, cutie-pie!!! Oh... who's a good girl... you are! Yes, you are!
Kevin Perry
Congrats on finally caving in and admitting that none of you /pol/tard raiders ever cared about Xenoblade and you're just here to shit up Yea Forums. Now neck yourselves faggots because this "LE EPIC PUPPETMASTER" shit you're trying to pull is a cringy relic from the guy fawkes mask era of Yea Forums.
Chase Hall
user. He never played the game. He never played any Xeno game. None of the people racebaiting/shitposting about XBC3 have.
Grayson Long
Same here. Loved Xenogears and XC1, fuck 2. Can't wait for 3
