This is absolutely a matter of opinions with no right answer but me? I love some good frakking fake expletives since gently caress is verboten.

Mokinokaro posted:Wouldn't be surprised if they do similar silliness in Japanese. Not usually; Japanese doesn't quite have the same concept of curse words as English. Localizing the Japanese Nopon-talk also required some heavier changes, since the Nopon "quirk" in Japanese can't really be translated. While Tora still kinda sucks, he's much less bad in JP due to his voice IMO (and I don't interpret the Poppi stuff as a sex thing so much as a "nerd thing"). Tatsu from X is equally terrible regardless of voice - in general the XCX voices are extremely similar between the JP and EN dubs; kinda reminds me of something like Persona 4/5 where they do an uncannily good job of making the English sound like "a perfect English representation of their Japanese voices." I'll be going with the JP as usual, but unlike in XC2 I'm tempted to do the English some (and probably will for any second run or NG+). What we've heard in the trailers is very good and generally seems XC1 quality (though the trailer content is likely going to be well directed so might not be representative).

I played xenoblade 1 in English and 2 in Japanese. I think the mouths not being synced to English VO took me out, but also I actually really enjoyed the Japanese VO essentially being a shounen anime voice over. Loved that

XC2 question: I’m starting to get some good blades that I want to use from the gacha which is nice, but they start really far below my other blades in terms of trust levels as I’ve already got some 5s rolling around. What I’ve been doing is spamming a bunch of low cost pouch items to get them to an acceptable level (ignoring the ones that don’t unlock with trust points) but I was wondering if there was a better way? I’m far enough along where level one feels pretty bad if I’m controlling the driver compared to my mainstays. I did notice merc missions raise trust but it seems really slow compared to just using the 10 min missions to fill in affinity nodes for blades I’m not currently using.

Nope, spamming pouch items is the fastest way to rise trust.

the fastest way to raise trust is love sources (which you get like 15 of for free in one of the DLC item packs by the way) you can make more after chapter 6

Half the charm of English dub nopons is that they’re voiced by voice actors who clearly have no experience doing high pitched voices Remember the nopon secret agent character in 2 who spoke with a suave semi nasal tone, but with nopon affectations? Incredible

I have a feeling that the whole thing with the Keves/Agnes soldiers having their own "bound weapons" (that are apparently inherent to them and can be materialized at will) will probably just be explained as "they were created solely to fight, so Blade-related technology was used just to make them inherently suited for that purpose - no need to separately manufacture weapons when you can just kill two birds with one stone." A lot of weirdness involving the various Xenoblade races all being together and having similar lifespans can be explained by the whole "artificially created to fight" thing.

Idly, I put up a poll on Gamefaqs asking which of the 6 MCs you like the most, and shockingly so far, Eunie is in the lead. Noah's in 2nd, Mio's in 3rd, Lanz and Taion are tied for 4th/5th and Sena's in last.

Also simps because people noticed that instead of doing a shared hobby like Noah & Mio playing flute or Lanz & Sena working out. Eunie is drinking while Taion waits on her.

When should I start bothering with gems in DE? And can someone supply me with an idiots guide to making them. Specifically a guide for idiots not one made by an idiot because I could do the latter myself I just got to Sword Valley because I decided to progress to a specific point in the story that comes shortly after that before going back to do a billion sidequests/mark hunts. My equipment isn't lacking but I'm intentionally messing with my levels with Expert Mode to keep from overleveling everything and don't know if I should be bothering to optimize gems at the same time at this point. Further challenge is added by my team being Melia/Sharla/Riki for affinity grinding purposes

You can mess with gems whenever you want, really. You just won’t be making top tier gems until the endgame areas. But you can generally make good gems if you toss your most compatible characters together. Shulk and Reyn are my usual go-to team, Shulk can get into a fever easier and Reyn is good at Strong flame. The gist is that you pick materials to meld, wah of which has different skills. Once you reach over 100% on a skill or max out the number of materials you can combine, the crafting starts. You have a series of turns where you get a random flame. Small flame increases the cylinder gauge, medium increases several skill %’s at once by a little bit and strong increases the % on one skill by a lot. The % indicates how strong the gem will be, since every gem has a stat range. If you go above a certain % (200?) it will level up to the next level of gem, if you max out the heat (300%?) on the gem it will split and you will get two of the next level gem. If you are going for max heat to get the strongest gems, it helps to only combine materials with one or two different skills so that your turns are more focused, if that makes sense. If a skill doesn’t hit 100% you can split it off as a cylinder and reuse it for a future gem. You can only get as many different cylinders as times you filled the cylinder gauge. Sometimes you want to do that, so you can get several cylinders that are just under 100% for a skill and combine them to make it easier to hit max heat.

Sharla is really good for helping you to gently caress up a crafting session while still collecting a lot of cylinders that edge ever-closer to 99%. It's also worth it to mix in garbage ore in order to intentionally dilute the chances of things you care about accidentally hitting 100% while Sharla ruins things. Then you slam two cylinders together at 96%+98% together and let Shulk and Reyn party down to scream up to 300% which gives you two maxed out copies of the higher-level.
