Motto posted:The party member stuff is pretty interesting. I'm guessing MC/Lyn/Elma/Tatsu are the ones who are always around in cutscenes and stuff, and then there are secondary party members who matter in the plot but aren't always around/cutscene relevant, and then optional minor members you get through guilds/quests who have their own sidestories, but are just warm bodies if they appear in main story scenes. Was thinking that since they went out of their way to tell us what Unions the characters belong to. That some of them might be tied to what Union you're currently in. So if you join the Interceptors you get to hang out more with Guin.

Calaveron posted:Apparently you can change all of the characters' hairstyles, since I saw an image of the creepy monado hairclip girl with a different, much better hairdo that does not frame her enormous creepy eyes. It's a bit surprising what a small change like that can do to a face. All hail the Ritsu-cut.

ImpAtom posted:IIRC they said that you're able to set skills based on your playstyle so I don't think they're unique, or at least there's elements of customization to it for your main character. I've been trying to figure out what class the unarmed combat with flying drones is. The drones are apparently called launchers so that would imply it's a galaxy knight that uses a photon sabre and psycho launchers but Lou and the unnamed girl are both unarmed and Douglas who uses a light saber like sword uses a lazer bazooka. I suppose Douglas could be the Elite Planner guy and the light saber he uses in the stream video is just a knife that looks like that. Edit: Classes, for reference.

That's great. I downgraded some of my equipment in Chronicles just so not everyone looked like a big purple spikey mess. But I couldn't force myself to use the matching legs for Seven since they only existed as a unique pair of legs with an agility gem in it that wasn't capped. Looking fashionable in games is important dammit but so are stats. Dastardly fucked around with this message at 16:21 on Mar 17, 2015 |

Weekly short trailer is up. This time it's Elma and Lyn talking about 'overed' monsters. There's also some new screenshots of some locations and wildlife on the official site. http://xenobladex.jp/battle/battle02.html I could not find the location screenshots on the site so I'll link to the article I first saw them at. http://nintendoeverything.com/xenoblade-chronicles-x-screenshotsart/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYBrs_vBOyw

Dolphin Fetus posted:With Xenoblade 3ds coming out so soon I was wondering: What's the ideal way to play this game? I'm wii-less but going to buy a wii-u next month probably, is it worth it to play the game on the big screen or should I just wait for the 3ds port? I don't like how dodgy dolphin is when it comes to emulating gamecube and wii games, but if your computer can emulate it without any hiccups then go for that. Other than that go for the wii version if you can find it at a reasonable price or if you have a soft modded wii (I played it on my Wii U without any problems). If you have access to a wii pro controller then use that. I only had a wii mote and nunchuck and while it works it's not a very comfortable way of playing the game. It would be nice if the Wii U pro controller or pad could be used for wii games. While it's neat that it can be played on a new 3ds I don't think the portability is worth the reduced resolution, textures and english voices only (not that you should ever use the Japanese dub over the fantastic english dub). Especially since the game doesn't add anything new besides a music player and a model viewer. Dastardly fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Mar 25, 2015 |

ArmyOfMidgets posted:One of them is described as the battle theme. As in the theme of battle, as in one of the core gameplay mechanics you will do throughout the 80-120+ hours of game. I don't want to hear A Whole Different Plaaanet for what could amount to over a day of my life. The joke here is that Shimomura's Kingdom Hearts: Xenoblade edition battle theme was so bland that no one even remembers that it exists and people were fine with that. Appreciate that you get to listen to something catchier this time.

Well the replies has the same idea as me. Why leave that until after you've experienced every major cutscene the game has to offer? Not much point in coordinating your gear when there's no cutscenes to make use of it. NG+? https://twitter.com/XenobladeJP/status/584989514487070721

It must be a running joke by the developers that Elma is always the first one to die in all of the trailers. Dastardly fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Apr 16, 2015 |

Motto posted:Are you guys really this concerned with what the big robots are called? More concerned that they felt the need to change unions into professions and how "Testament is going to be changed" when it's perfectly fine as it is. Some unions even have the name incorporated into the logo. Are they going to waste time changing those too because some American out there might get kerfuffled about vaguely religious names in their video games?

This means I have less than a year to get a Wii U. That's always been the case. But if this is what they've spent the last year on then there's no way they'll release it before the absolute last possible date that still technically counts as 2015. If you think this direct was awesome then stay far, far away from the Japanese ones.

Not that we know of. But Tatsu joins your party as a guide really early on in the game and is present in plenty of cutscenes so it's basically like having Riki except you can't use him in combat.

MechaCrash posted:Is anybody streaming this who took the Forcer path? I want to see those in action, but everybody's going down Assault or Command trees. And my desire to see Blast Fencer/Galaxy Knight (the photon saber/psycho launcher class) is in mild conflict with my desire to not get story spoilers, and I don't know how far in you'd be before you could realistically get those classes. I already saw a really huge spoiler and I wish I hadn't. narumi23's Cross has maxed the galaxy knight and elite planner classes. He spends most of his time oneshotting enemies with his mech now though. On how long it takes to reach and max rank one of the end classes. About 15-20 hours maybe? Based entirely on how many quests and stuff you do.
