Wrong. Reviews tell us about energy busts, energy blasts, skell, skell hoists, BLADE meetings, New LA night. It's wonderful. I've never felt so excited in all my life. These people looked deep within their soul and assigned a number based on the order in which Nintendo paid them.

I mean you get these things from talking to people who played the Japanese version of the game too, just fyi

Hiroyuki Sawano does this with a lot of series he's done work for and it's a very love it or hate it kind of style, I am one of the people who loves it.

I don't think that's Sawano's fault, he usually provides instrumental tracks to vocal songs if a studio requests it. I would assume Monolith-Soft probably hosed up the audio mixing somewhere and didn't realize how intrusive that can get or just flat out didn't ask him to make instrumental tracks.

I would say the music absolutely fits the style the game is going for. A lot of the ambience and walking around tracks do a good job of conveying the desolate, but still immaculate Mira. All of the vocal music is used in battles and skells, it's meant to pump you up and also attempt to build narrative on the life you're fighting. Now a lot of it is kinda weird about the because the lyrics are a gobbled mess in most songs except Black Tar, which is ironically the most hated song.

That being said there are definitely too many vocal tracks and the World's Enemy theme did not need to be the opening theme with lyrics.

Um, what you want and think does not matter to me or how I view the music, Louisgod.

The sidequests have more variation, but they are still very much your rigmarole jrpg/mmo side quests. Also the relationship chart is even larger than XB's.

That being said, sidequests autocomplete if you've already done before you've even accepted them so that goes a long way.

Same, but I haven't finished playing JC2 and copies of JC3 aren't going anywhere for two months meanwhile this is a loving niche game under Nintendo's name, so now is the best time probably.

This has good game feel. Everything feels fast, weapon switching has like no complicated animations it just does it, movement feels good and practical to switch between long and short range, and your team mates getting subtitles giving you tips is nice.

Are there just like no sidequests in Chapter 3? I ran into the one for finding the stranded dues by Janpath Lake, but that was p much it. I'm assuming more show up as I go through, but I felt there would be more than just that.

I wish the game would point where the gently caress I could find Zizi Rabbits and Auroran bones. It's getting real annoying looking in places that neither Gamefaqs nor Reddit seem to be able to inform me of and I don't know if the rabbits are actual enemies or what.
