Dear thread,

I have chosen to sell xenoblade chronicles three- whoever decided to make those little ballbag creatures who sound like tellytubbies can gently caress off. From what i can tell their only purpose is to ruin the tone of the story. Also maybe i am too old but i havent the foggiest what the gently caress is going on in the battles. I am breezing through them (died once in 30hrs) but feel a complete lack of agency/ meaningful choice. Anyway its not for me.

I want to invest that money in a new game:

Im swinging between kirby and live a live.

- kirby mainly cos of this thread, should probably add that i found mario odyssey aimless and mind numbing, but 3d world is my fav Mario (which seems similar in terms of the level style)

-live a live looks cool because i love these kind of goofball/ charming jrpg's and the battle system looks cool/ tactical. Also its supposedly <30 hrs which is a huge plus. My only concern is that it looks like it could be a bit gameplay light.

Any suggestions appreciated.

time to nopon out of this thread

Nopon rule.

Riku is my fave Nopon though bc he's shy and serious instead of outgoing and cutesy like most Nopon.

Also he has an INCREDIBLE head of hair.

One is a quick platformer that's awesome, while LiveaLive is an rpg that has a demo so you can try it. Pretty easy to figure out what you'd want instead.

hosed up if true.

I don't really understand being lost with the combat, they painstakingly explain each concept as they introduce them. The only two mechanics that weren't explained well enough are Link-level and chain-attacks.

I'm thoroughly enjoying XB3, I played about 20 hours of 1 and dropped off. Hoping that doesn't happen here, the thing that made me bounce off 1 was getting frustrated at digging through menus and the UI feels leagues better in 3.

Also if it's a problem, just use auto-battle sometimes? or go into the help menu and you can literally play any situation to understand. It is a huge system and confusing, not disagreeing at all there but it's also a 100hr JRPG with all that brings

A real hellraiser


I don't know what's going on in battles tbh I just hit auto battle. And story bosses, well, I'm like five levels higher than them and on easy mode, I don't really need to know what I'm doing.

I understand individual actions and what they all do and status effects and all that, I just don't really grasp how to do any kind of strategy with all this. I just have higher numbers and then the enemy dies. Try to have two Shield, two sword, two healer

All I know is to have characters with Break, Topple, Launch, Daze, Smash. and to extend every chain attack as long as I can for the huge dmg and exp bonuses.

I understood the systems- i just feel like it is visually confusing to the point where i didnt feel like i could engage with them in a fun way. 6 party members just feels too busy.

I grew up in the uk and I think my hatred for the Nopon has mainly to do with the voice acting reminding me of crap kids telly.

I'm enjoying the game a ton. In chapter 4. I think the two Nopon in your party are alright. They're a step down from Riki in XBC1, but far better than the one from XBC2. I don't disagree with Science_enthusiast from the previous page in that they can ruin the tone of a scene with their baby talk.

XC3 made Nopon way less annoying than XC2 and XCX, maybe not less annoying than the first game though because HEROPON VERY COOL

Nopon never bothered me when playing with Japanese voices and I actually find them funny, but they were what convinced me to switch languages in the first place, that and Rex sounding like my grandpa

[ASK] ME ABOUT MY LOVE FOR 1'S
I bought Castle Crashers cause it was like $5 bucks the last sale and cause I loved it when it was new.

Is the online scene there just completely dead? I shouldn't be surprised with how old it is, but every time I've tried to play, it's been like one of 5 of the same people every single time and all they want to do is take their level 99 guy to the last boss where we die over and over.

The one good thing about Tora is that around the halfway point of the game he almost completely disappears from the story.
Incidentally that was also the one bad thing about Riki

Its a shame because the voice acting on the other characters is fantastic especially the mecha joker guys Noah and whatever the welsh cat are called have some of the most likeable vocal delivery I have heard in games (she is the same actress as Ranni the witch I believe)
