NEWT THE MOON

I finally started playing through Xenoblade on the Wii because it seemed like the thing to do with everyone doing it on the 3ds. It's just been sitting around in a box for 5 years. I was a little trepidatious about getting into a 100 hour RPG at this point, but that sequel looks too drat good that I couldn't help it.

I'm just now leaving the first Colony, some four hours in. I mostly like the way it plays. Does the writing get any better?

Yes and no.

Yes in that it picks up, things start happening, goals for characters to pursue pop up and foreshadowing occurs.

No in that it never stops being very Japanese, which means being very trope heavy. It's less Japanese than a few other JRPG's I could name, like it's worlds better than anything FFXIII did, but it's still a JRPG.

Tropical Freeze really does have an incredible soundtrack. Finally made it to 3-1 today, now I see what all the hype was about. What a great level.

The bosses can gently caress right off though, gently caress you owl guy with three loving stages in your battle and having to start over from the beginning when I die.
Ha yeah we're pretty much at the same point in the game. Based on advice in this thread about the boss fights, I went ahead and bought a heart from Funky for the owl fight. Definitely gonna do that for all bosses now, with no shame.

And geeze, Nintendo could make so much money off of nerds with proper retail soundtrack releases. I know there's a smattering of import stuff but it's a really untapped market.

I understand that they wouldn't do it with physical CDs, but there's no reason to not put the soundtracks up on iTunes and let the money roll in.

No one is jonesing for Final Fantasy content more than I, but I do not think an FF rep should be from a specific FF game. It should be a character that can represent the whole series, like one of the recurring creatures or job classes. I think the best candidates are Black Mage, and Moogle. Regardless, FF is an iconic long-running franchise that shares a history with Nintendo and would be fitting for SSB, and also so is Castlevania. That's my opinion.

I'm sorry that people having fun with fighting games offends you

Also the smash thread has been about the character polls for the past two weeks so I don't know what you're reading

The 3DS has seen some FF activity, like Theatrhythm. If you wanna get specific about console releases, then you have to look back a few years to WiiWare-- but exactly the same thing is true of Mega Man.

Regardless, in both cases (and with Castlevania as well), it's the history on the NES/SNES that's the big draw.

I'd love if we could somehow go in blind. Just DLC goes live and you just start up the new cups and see where they take you.

e: I mean, I guess I could just avoid spoilers, it comes out in 9 days and no info on most tracks yet, so at worst, like, a week of dodgin MK8 sounds doable.

Guy who started that rumor admitted he was lying when people called him out on listing it as NEOBOWSERCITY instead of the actual name of NEOKOOPACITY
