Heropon very cool, he's just a dad trying to do right by his family.

Xenoblade Chronicles X's biggest misstep is that there are no playable Nopon, imo.

Thanks for posting this, this mission is seriously some bullshit. I've killed 18 of these bastard things and haven't had anything drop yet.

This is a pretty cool game about picking pennies off the ground and futilely trying to climb embankments by changing your angle a little bit and jumping. This could possibly be a bad game and I'd never know because there are 15 gauges going up simultaneously keeping the reward loop in my brain tripping non stop.

The combat in this is so much better than watching the preview videos made it seem. I'm not sure why I'm surprised, it's just an evolution of the system in Chronicles.

My "beef" is that the NLA music is quickly threatening to burn itself into my cerebral cortex permanently. I think I'm even starting to smell smoke from up there.

Chapter 5 was kind of cool. There's a fairly linear footpath through an enemy camp, except its staffed by a million guards and some patrolling poo poo that likely outlevels you. As if to make sure you know you have a jump button, there's a ton of ledges along the peripheries and vertical shortcuts up every single switchback.

Full Specs + Beam Barrage + Overdrive + Beam Resistance Down should be forbidden.

I don't know whether I love or hate this May character. Although I can't really judge her impossible luck, as I also happened to find a random cave on the shore of Oblivia with like ten million collectibles and level 5 mechanical treasure. Marked that one down mentally for later. Way later.

My story progress has ground to a halt after getting my Skell. It's too much fun to drive around in a sick robot motocycle finding stuff to fight and loot.

I was really cynical about the story and the doubling down on the MMO elements, ironically I was right but it had pretty much no bearing on the quality of the game

That's cause they're for chapter 11. (I think it's mostly to serve as a level gate, since you need to be level 41 for his second mission.)

Have you looked around the city with FrontierNav at all? Affinity Missions show up regardless of whether you fulfill the requirements for them unless the previous mission in the chain hasn't been done. The specific mission for unlocking pets is in the commercial district with a client named Mathias and you can definitely do it way before chapter 10

The huge pauses between dialogue lines are awful. The lack of effort put into the character acting and shot composition really hurts too, after the first game did incredibly well with those aspects.

If I'm spending most of my time in cutscenes spinning the camera around for visual stimulation, that's a bad sign. The fact that the player is even allowed to do this during major story sequences makes it feel like nobody cared about those parts.

I see music by ACE and a really nice aesthetic

Shame about those character designs though

going full anime on the character design looks way better than the uncanny valley poo poo in x. i dunno what people are so pissy about.
