Y'know what's creeping me out? That I'm starting to think, after that boss-finish cutscene, that I'm right about something horrible. He sounded awfully familiar, and he became what he is... Yeah, definitely creeped out right now... Also, the Old Guard still rock the casbah, and the new guy... Well, he's mysterious, and that actually pisses me off. But still, the mystery will be unraveled soon enough, I'm guessing.

Xeno-x games can't get enough of pale haired young-looking cryptic characters.

I think we may have met our Chaos.

Fun fact: Dickson's Unbeatable 6 gem makes him literally impossible to kill.

He has an Unbeatable(NPC). it works 100% of the time, all the time.

I do have the next few videos made up, I am just waiting for my... voice to come back after freshers week at uni. A combination of going 'Whooo!' a lot and some snotty first year giving me fresher's flu means I'm out of commentary action atm.

Sympathies.
Just coming out of my own sick stint.

Also Melia because she's probably the best character, I think. consensus seems to agree, at least.

This game is quite cutscene heavy at times.

This is priceless.

You seem to not know this game's predecessors. At least this one has witty dialogue: 'We ordered Room service an hour ago' :allears:

I decided to hop in this thread to see the latest post, and it just so happened to be this scene. There's a fair bit of foreshadowing, which is a nice touch.

This game really needs to be remade in HD. Combo pack with the next installment?

Edit: Nice LP Lethemonster, you have far more patience than I for sidequests.

Yeah I agree.
Just an across the board hi res texture overhaul would still be great. The art style really mitigates the cons of being on the wii.


Also poo poo is hitting the fan. And hitting it hard.


Oh and by the way, is the next installment going to use the same recording studio/voice acting group/localizers what handled this one? Just wont feel the same if they suddenly switched to using american accents.

:eng101: That "voice acting group" is actually a random assortment of British TV stars and voice actors of various degrees of fame and success. Incidentally if you've seen the CGI Captain Scarlet series, I want you to look at Captain Scarlet himself and try picturing him saying "Riki sneaky!".

Hahaha what? That Captain Scarlet? I remember seeing some of those episodes as a kid!

Then that last bit of my question still stands; will the same localizers work on X? Because they did a bang up job on this one.

No, not the marionette series. There's a CGI series from about 2005/6-ish. It was actually pretty good.

I like the fact that you seem to wear your armour pretty consistently. Wearing a somewhat propper set of clothes is way more important than a little boost in stats.

stats dont matter till the postgame.
and even then Gems and sockets are what really matter.

It's assumed she got eaten by the mechon that piled on her mech after she got impaled by Metal Face/Mumkhar.

Does that mean that all the homs that got eaten are in the other Xords? I wonder...

They both do things right where the other goes wrong.

Get a pop filter and reduce the mic gain, that should be good.


e: Pop filter can be a thin sock over the mic. Anything a bit dense and floofy.

More Xenoblade is never a bad thing.

I must have more RPGs voiced by Brits, Irelanders and Scots.

The thing I don't understand is how some people hate the voice acting. I guess its a subs versus dubs sort of thing, but some hate it so vehemently they do really convoluted things to work around it on the NTSC-U Xenoblade HD Project. Seriously, just change the voices in-game. It shouldn't require something like 8 steps that you have to do over again every time you load Dolphin.

And come on, you couldn't ask for a better voice for Dunban and all of his awesome lines. Especially the :smug: ones.

Edit: One caveat to the Japanese voices is that you have to start from the very beginning of the game all over again on a new save.

How can they hate 'IT'S REYN TIME'
And Dunban, and Riki, and Melia, and Sharla, and Shulk, and Mumkhar etc etc

It peeves me more than it should.
The game wouldn't be half as prolific without the unique localisation it got.

That place looked like hell and I don't blame you one bit.

Also the party is getting all armchair philosophy-ey.
