The first 6 hours of this game is a grueling monotony and only after that does it open up. Stick to the quests because if you go off on your own you won't last 30 seconds before something kills you.

There's also a huge big long mclarge huge tutorial where they explain to you the concept of elite monsters(they're the named monsters that have the stats of bosses) but it takes 15 minutes for them to explain it to you.

the tit editor is still in the game's code but you need to use something like an action replay(which doesn't exist for the wii-u) or whatever to make the slider selectable.

Crabtree posted:What is a good division to start out with as you're learning the ropes and I guess gaining any resources you can to help out when the game lets you get out from the tutorial? You will have 6 hours in the tutorial. If you don't learn the ropes by then, then there is no hope for you.

bloodychill posted:On the other hand, XCX looks like it's going to be a lot of fun and it's reassuring to see the critical response is largely positive. Overall complaints for XCX are: Tutorial takes waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long Open worldness isn't that great because enemies kill you real quick if you venture off the beaten path, so you pretty much have to stick to places around your level to be safe You get the robots real late in the game and they make up a large part of the gameplay and would have made the game feel more open if they were to be gotten earlier. They compare it to the mad max game and say it's like not getting the cars until 40 hours in. Or skyrim and not getting any talents right off the bat and having to wait. The robots are a big part of the game and they really should have been introduced and given to you at the tutorial. Not only that they greatly increase your exploration capibilities of the world.

Guys I can't play an RPG videogame because the music isn't exactly my thing. If you're playing an RPG for the music this might not be the genre for you.

Still think he'd have been a great guest musician. You're not going to be hearing any of the music all that much over the screams of agony. VA's did top notch work on game over sounds.

I have on good authority that the pre-sales to the game are pulling Zelda-like numbers. Sounds like they should start making a third game.

Silver Falcon posted:Well... you could buy the console for this game and the other cool games on the system? Splatoon, Hyrule Warriors, Super Mario 3D World, not to mention Smash and Mario Kart. Oh and there's a Zelda game coming out for it next year. Two if you count Twilight Princess HD. The NX is more than likely coming in 2016 nintendo already has dev kits out and ramped up production. So the Zelda for the wii-u is probably going to be a launch title.

So here's the break down Side Quests are where your character story building moments for people who hate playing games for the mechanics and just want the TV to tell them a story, just like Xenoblade's story. Main Quest Objectives is big Xenogears/Xenosaga type story, but it's actually finished and there's no mindfuckery, eating people, or clone bullshit. it's a culmination of all the Xenogames. Also few of the screenshots show it but nearly everything glows in the dark at night. It looks like a rave party due to all the glowy poo poo.

Xenoblade has proven twice that whatever irreverent poo poo gimmicks are made for the system the series will throw them in the trash and make a good game without them.

I'm expecting them to announce an HD release of the first xenoblade for the NX so you can finally get a copy of the game that doesn't look like muddy blurry crap. I mean they're fixing the textures in Twilight Princess and that was the blurriest textured game for quite some time.

I said come in! posted:Nintendo games don't drop in price ever even in retail though. There are launch WIi U games that are still $50. This isn't true, Xenoblade is probably the second wii-u game I paid full price for. The Only other one I paid full price for was Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. I've got everything else worthwhile on the system for around 35 bucks and under. Including Pikmin 3. Toysrus routinely has nintendo game sales like every other week or so.

Zombie Defiler posted:Yeah when this was announced I was sold, well, double-sold. Xenoblade and Monster Hunter were the primary reasons. Happy I did though since Bayo 2, Mario Kart, Smash, Pikmin, and Hyrule warriors were pretty fun. Looking forward to that new fancy Zelda too. they have the weapons from Xenogears/Xenosaga.

The only MMO thing about it is the collect 10 of something quests and the fact that it's a large world. there's no endless grinding to get something, no instance lockouts, no spending hours farming, and no guild drama. The first game was like if they made a modern Phantasy Star in an open world and this game is still pretty much that.

I'm enjoying reading people's thoughts involving jumping through hoops and performing mental gymnastics by explaining how Xenoblade Chronicles X really isn't anime at all period and you're wrong to call it an anime game. It's Nintendo's answer to mass Effect honest,really belive me guys, ITS HARD SCIENCE FICTION ITS NOT ANIME GODDAMNIT!!!!!!!!!

mabels big day posted:i was going to wait to get this, maybe until i picked up an external harddrive, or at least finished Xenoblade Chronicles 3D but I'm really tempted now... how well does the game run on disc without downloading any of the data stuff? for the most part the data packs just effect draw distance and pop in. Loading difference only seems to be a difference of 10 seconds.

You can't train the Sauropod enemies to new LA and have the guards fight them. Another strike against the claim of it being a single player MMO.
