Diane, the fog has lifted and it's July 29th, twelve-oh-one AM. I'm standing in line at the Gamestop, excited for a voyage into the unknown. At home I've procured the following: one easy boy recliner, retail five hundred and ninety nine US dollars. I'm told that's a funny number, Diane, but I'm not sure why. One case of a dozen Bawls energy drinks, twenty-five-ninety-nine, and I'm pretty sure I know why that's funny. Domino's is on speed dial, my phone is in airplane mode, I have not achieved release in forty-eight hours, and not to be indelicate, but Diane? This is going to be a big one.

Xbc1 and 2 OSTs haven't left my rotation in years, hope the music continues to kick rear end. I picked up a copy of X when I got my wii u set up again that I want to play some day. Remember Bob loved it!

sorry..but the game really loving falls off. i guess if youre an insane retard and enjoy grindy korean mmos youll love the postgame but, as sofia described it feels like a long con. you invest all this time and effort into learning the mechanics and developing a cool character and then the game goes "well actually youll be in a big robot and absolutely none of that matters" and the robot combat is incredibly simple to the point of being mind numbing, but you cant go back to being on foot because everything will take 20x longer

the game has a lot of glaring flaws that are apparent from the very start but you figure "well at least the combat and exploration are good so imma keep digging" and then the skells are a giant kick in the balls, in a way that doesnt set in until youve been playing with them for a while.

its bizarre because ive put over 100 hours into the game and it makes it that much more disappointing

im still thinking about this. this game has quests to accept quests and if you run into the quest before the prerequisite Accept Quest-quest it tells you to go back and find the Accept Quest-quest loving poo poo

I played it and I love it. It's not the greatest game of all time, but it's stupid enough that I didnt take it very seriously and just enjoyed my time with it. it also has the greatest ost of all time

the only song I've heard from X before this thread is the one that shows up when you fight elma in XC2 challenge mode. heard this thing a lot when doing the redux version on chaos difficulty but in that mix the lyrics are completely incomprehensible lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ffMspQdbRA

the ost is enough to make me wanna play this thing. I hope they port it one day with improvements
