Average Bear posted:How does the gameplay stand up? This game looks good but idk about $60 good. It's Xenoblade's gameplay, tuned up a bit and shunted into an open-world mold by a devteam that hasn't made one of those before. I think it's going to be real fun regardless, but it's not going to be without it's warts, many of which you can expect if you've played xenoblade. Gao posted:I remember reading that it took 40 hours for someone to finally get a mech. Is that normal, or did he just dick around with other stuff for way too long? I've seen it vary quite a bit, but it's gonna take a while to get a Skell. Getting one makes on-foot exploration almost completely outmoded, even before attaining a flight unit, so there's a reason why it takes some time.

There's about 13? or so main chapters in the game, you get your skell at chapter 6 or so, and you don't get your flight pack for your skell till chapter 9. Even doing the chapters requires you to complete sidequests concurrently or as a pre-req, so you might be able to try and beeline and get it like 25 hours in or so if you rush maybe?

So some Divisions give rewards for doing things like mapping areas or killing Tyrants, but it looks like you can still do these activities in unrelated Divisions. Will you get the reward for doing those things if you switch to the relevant Division after having done them, or would it better to not do those things until you're in a Division that properly rewards you for doing them?

You can switch Divisions, but it costs money. I think what the devs are going after is for you to "cooperate" with as many of your Squadmates as possible to have multiple division bonuses going on at the same time. When connected online, you'll come across other player's avatars standing around in the field, whom you can either temporarily recruit or ask for their support, gaining their Division bonus if they're in a different one.

Also, DUMB GAME DESIGN WARNING The way you add characters to your party is by finding them in town and talking to them. It's gonna be a pain looking for them, so just look at the google doc in the OP to check where any given ally hangs out. Also, Affinity is more important this time around, rather than something for crazy people to grind up. Affinity is now only built between party members and you, and Affinity Missions are unlocked as it goes up, so it'd be a good idea to try out everybody, benching people as you max out their affinity levels. Affinity Missions provide additional story bits and access to a given character's unique Arts. Motto fucked around with this message at 08:21 on Nov 30, 2015 |

For example, hang out with this guy enough, and you'll get the Photon Saber Art Spirit Change, which swaps your current TP and HP. Ally revival and Overclock, this game's replacement for Chain Attacks, both cost 3000 TP. Your HP will eventually reach into the thousands. A hint for any aspiring Galactic Knights.

hubris.height posted:the shred is strong in that song They definately didn't. From watching some footage of the English version of the battles I can still hear them say "dolls" in the song Black Tar in reference to the mechs. What I wonder is if the one "goddamn" in Black Tar went unnoticed, or if a T rated game is allowed to have one goddamn in it.

Although not locally of course. If I understood correctly, there are 32 other online players on the field doing stuff. I've no idea how that works.

Louisgod posted:Reviews are pouring in, game is not an unmitigated disaster, will be a blast to play. Many of the import and domestic reviews for this game remind me of the reception for Morrowind. They both seem like slow burn open world games with jank and pacing issues where you go from a nobody to a living God who flies over mountains. Chances are that Xenoblade Chronicles X probably has an annoying enemy that peaks you to death as well.
