So all they did is add in 3 pages worth of content from the artbook and called it a definitive edition? The endgame is literally the same as the Wii U.
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Sloppity with Slovity.
There's three main chapters' worth of new content even excluding the new characters, plus even if they didn't add anything, things like the much shorter load times, party member menu, improved material tracking, BLADE level removal and slashed reward ticket prices already make it the definitive edition of the game.
Am I the only who felt like, our character should have died at the end? Like, give a heroic sacrifice?
how's it poppin'?
I find it odd we still have nothing on Xenoblade games on Switch 2.
We don't know if they run better or Switch 2 edition of the games.
I feel like we will get a Monolith soft direct or something
I am disappointed that the new characters (minus poppin' man) amounted to nothing. Liesel's first mission makes her seem really important but then... nothing. It WAS nice to see Celica involved in a mission that didn't involve Rock though.
True. Party menu and removing the forced Elma/Lin restrictions make it feel like a totally different game for the first half. You're actually allowed to use the other twenty party members now!
Nah too cliche.
"Main character dies at the end" is the biggest meme in fiction. Just makes the whole thing pointless.
*I meant Nielnial instead of Liesel, the new lore with the time attack skells and ancient ruins seemed like it would lead somewhere like tying in to the new finale, but nope.
Nah, I liked the cool heroic scene but I'd rather the avatar survive. And it would be neat if they let you carry him/her over to a sequel with the same appearance and bonus perks if the game detects a save file of XDE.
SEX WITH NEILNAIL SEEEEEEEEEEX WITH HER FAT CURVY ASS.
NO SERIOUSLY, WHY IS HER ASS SO PROJECTED. EVERY DIALOGUE CUTSCENE I COULDNT THINK OF ANYTHINK EXCEPT WHAT IT'D FEEL LIKE TO JUST GRAB HER ASS ALL THE TIME
The active members screen on its own makes this version far superior to the Wii U one.
It actually made me want to rotate my party members every now and then, and got me to max out everyone's class, which I never bothered doing in the original due to how annoying seeking them out was.
So what happened to the french and japanese ships that the White Whale got signals from before crashing on Mira?
Should be safe somewhere since the White Whale universe hopped. At least they weren't annihilated by the Ghost.
Xenoblade X DE just future proofed the series.
Now they can continue to develop different aspects of the Xenoblade cosmology while telling any new story they wish to without them needing to be directly tied to the other games, all the while retroactively fleshing out elements of the older games thanks unus mundus bs
Do skills other than Synchrony work on Skells?
check out this massive plant
Don't think so. I fucking wish doing a melee combo would cut my art recharge in half on a Skell, but it doesn't.
Nintendo has wanted Monolith RPGs to release early on their systems since Wii U and finally got it with XB2
Xenoblade 3/XDE marketing brings up being able to get the other games with vouchers
a new game and Switch 2 upgrades are obvious imo
Yes, Stellar Entry will increase your GP when you enter a skell :)
(no there are no other Skell skills)
Stellar Entry will increase your GP when you enter a skell :)
*while in overdrive
Which do you think will come first?
My guess is that they'll reveal the next game, then in the same direct announce the Switch 2 upgrades for the older ones to hype people up.
Maybe even shadowdrop them.
Would they really favor a simple Xenoblade 2 upgrade over a full definitive edition down the line? Or compromise in the form of a "switch 2 edition + new content"?
With the S2 having full BC, a standalone DE for 2 just doesn't make much sense.
Upgrade pack with extra content, like they're doing for Kirby, seems more reasonable.
Anon could you tell me the fashion used there?
XBC and XCX have gotten new content with the port/remaster they got. I expect them to only get 4K 60 fps patch. XB2 might get a Switch 2 edition considering how popular the game was.
Alternating between new game and DE during the switch era worked out very well for them. If they stopped doing that and thus had much longer time gaps between their releases, it would severely affect their revenue I'd imagine
They'll do Xenosaga 1/2/3 DE.
2017: XB2
2018: Torna
2019: Gap
2020: XB DE
2021: Gap
2022: XB3
2023: XB3 FR
2024: Gap
2025: XBX DE
2026: Gap
2027: New game
2028: New game DLC
2029: Gap
2030: XB2 DE
Xenoblade 2 would be 13 years old by then, much older than 1 and X when they got their DE, so I hink a remaster could be warranted
How does it emulate?
endgame
You don't play games for endgame. You play games for playing games. So just play the game.
Switch 2 era will be interesting because if it lasts as long as the switch era, it will have time to get only one brand new Zelda and Xenoblade game. But then the following generation would be set up to get two new games again by having a new one during the first year of a new hardware
It's kinda lame to just endlessly remaster every game that's already easily available, and I'd prefer Monolithsoft use their resources on either remaking games are are harder to get a hold of legitimately or make new games.
Like 90% perfect. NLA just stutters while running around.
That's not happening. If anything happens with Xenosaga, it will be Namco doing with it what they did with Baten Kaitos
I won’t say it couldn’t happen but Xenoblade 1 and X mostly got remasters/remakes due to limited reach on their original hardware and a generarion jump, 2 doesn’t really need one in the same way
finally find a way into the Noctilucent Sphere
look up
calmly exit
Yeah, I'm not fucking with that.
She's really nice and lets you kill all the jellyfish that are filled with candy. Just don't wake her up or she gets grumpy.

They got remasters to make money. Having all games on the same platform was to maximize revenue.
Wait
So “reverse damage” doesn’t mean you heal from damage it means you just fucking explode when your overdrive runs out?
Xenoblade Saga (All 4 games) Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + big epilogue crossover that sets up the next game/arc

She treated my skell like a pinata. She can have this victory, I'm close to becoming a big boy and getting Ares 70.
Why do people want Xenoblade 2DE? Monolith Soft being stuck in a "New game -> New game DLC -> Old game DE" cycle sounds like shit.
I don't. All four games available on Switch are fine the way they are, just make performance patches if they really want.
They'll announce an X upgrade patch once its sales have sufficiently slowed down in their eyes. Which going by DE and 3's sales, will be as soon as the Switch 2 releases.
Its just patternfags being retarded without even realizing XC1 and X getting DE on the Switch makes some semblance of sense since they were originally Wii and WiiU games respectively.
pretty much flawlessly, and it's been like that since 1 week before the official release, I'm still surprised by how well it emulates
Next game is Xenoblade X2. 60fps upgrade for X will be shadow dropped at the same time as the announcement. That's why they got all the party members' VA back for a single tiny scene each.
X2
the crew safely lands on the new planet and is welcomed by the native races into one of their towns
all is well until a drunk Tatsu goes to sleep in the Ares Prime, activates the cores and calls the Ghost
Usually when I finish a game I'm satisfied and move on to the rest of my backlog that I'm sure will keep me occupied 10+ years while I wait for the next installment.
Right now I'm filled with dread at the thought of the next installment not being announced in the next Direct.
Xenoblade 2 is as old now as Xenoblade 1 was when 2 released
Why does it still feel so modern though?
Next is Xenosaga remaster + extra chapter connecting to X..
It's still the same console generation as opposed to two later.
You mean big white clit for left becuase I've heard she is lebanese.
Chapter 13 lore makes Xenosaga canon incompatible with Xenoblade canon.

For me personally, it's that Xenoblade 2 has some rough edges because of it being a rushed game and having a shitton of patches to fix/add things afterwards.
An overhaul to the Blade system is what I'd like, having hundreds of commons was so silly, with only the slight possibility of having a good 4-star. They should be relegated to only Merc Missions, only equippables are the Rare/Legendary. Adenine replacing the wind fists girl Rex gets from Gramps (it's a permanent Common originally).
When you unlock a Rare Blade, it goes to a specific person. When Rex becomes Master Driver, then freely equipping/swapping between everyone is unlocked.
Are the Ares cores just conduit emulators, or are they actually the conduit's power divided into 6 cores?
Or are they Anima vessel equivalents?
Oh yeah, another big thing is menu/buttons. The D-pad in the field is useless, only tutorial button prompts. Complete waste.
I know I'm not the common user case but I'm glad they were there when I came back to the game after 5 years.
X2 better have the XB3 OST treatment. Aka a shit ton of different tracks for all kinds of scenarios.
Day field theme
Night field theme
FLIGHT specific to the field theme that's dynamic instead of starting from beginning
Any unique place from said field has its own unique theme
Caves have different themes depending on the field
Main hub ost changes when the plot progresses
God I hope
Shouldn't we just bring back vgg at this point?
Hell no
*xgg
Introduce an indian woman
She is responsible for many deaths in the name of a corporation
What did they mean by this?
I suggest skipping the 70 and going straight to the 90.
If they get rid of commons for combat, they absolutely need to redistribute Orb master on rares, or make a new one with that to fill the niche.
Also rebalance the fuck out of weaker rare blades since some are currently outclassed by commons(poor Electra(
doing the last few cutscenes of Mia's affinity quest
camera locks in for 30 seconds of Murderess' ass in the Six Stars thong + fishnets taking up 70% of the screen
They knew what they were doing.
2DE isn't happening because Switch 2 can play Switch games.
See you in 5 years
It's just a "subtle" way for XC2 haters to shitpost.
2 is the game in the worst state so it needs. DE to fix it!
And it won't happen then either retard.
