Hmm, understandable, but I have a different interpretation. The nopon are intelligent enough to understand death, as you pointed out, but their take on it seems different from humans/homs. I think that because of how common death is among their race, with nopon often being eaten, and because of their closeness to/with nature, they are used to death and accept it as a natural process.

said sometimes he's just kind of there or says the wrong thing. However he did grow on me more in my second run. I like Riki but he is one of my least favorite party members. He also seems far less important than the rest of the cast. Maybe it is because he is the only one without a villain counterpart.
Twas jarring at the time, but I believe @
erico9001
was correct; it was simply different social views clashing that created the scene. We must remember that, though the Nopon are friendly and hom-like in many ways, they are a different species and must be treated as such.
Riki looks like he's about to reveal that he's the mastermind behind the whole plot of Xenoblade as the true villain.
With an avatar like that you would have to end each of your sentences with Gentlemen.
...ehehehe

Whenever you enter a mech, the gamepad becomes a first person view of the cockpit, from which you have a first person view of your surroundings, dials that represent fuel, cool down, health, levers and stuff that for weapons, etc. You have to manage between liking up to check combat and looking down to manage the battle.
Maybe summer of 2015? That or october somewhere.
I'd say Summer next year. I feel like that's a realistic estimate.
Summer sounds good to me. Any sooner and I'll be busy finishing my Sr. year of High School, and any latter I'll be starting college.
Maybe august of next year I think that a good guest.
Spike damage. I didn't hate it in Xenoblade, but apparently in X you can only use healing arts under certain conditions, so if that's the case, spike damage should go.
I'll have to voice what @
ZXMechonHunter
said about Spike damage and expand it towards Spikes in general. Some of them are pretty cheap and it's annoying to have no indication as to what enemies have what Spikes.
At least the final boss doesn't have a spike.I'll have to voice what @
Oh, that guy has Spike damage? You didn't know? Oh well.
That guy has an instant death spike? Oh, I'm sorry! Fight's over for you!
Yeah. I noticed that. Hopefully Sakurai announces a character reveal tomorrow for Monday to get some hype back into this thread.
Switching characters to lead the party, pls. I've heard that you can change your class at will, which seems awesome. I just don't want it to take the place of being able to switch who you're actually controlling at any given moment.
Probably a mix of both sleep and Comic-Con. Pic of the day will be up soon, with any luck we'll get something to indicate a reveal soon?
How I wish I could be in San Diego right now... ;_; And oh, you're right. Keep thinking today is Friday. Bah.
I just got here! Late shift, you know how it goes...
No, it's dropped. I mean, today I came back after being away for two hours and the thread had advanced half a page. A couple days ago we would've had maybe two new pages. It's gettin' slower.

sends Friend Requests to the entirity of Smash Boards. Everyone who doesn't get one cries about it. (I might do a sweep soon, actually.)This entirely. They don't know our pain.
Fun fact: Pokémon's made by the second-party Game Freak.
With great power, comes great responsibility.
I've actually considered making one of these. I have all the electrical and most of the mechanical know-how. I think I just lack the commitment.
Gentle-pon.
I think a couple pages back I had a post about how every other party member could assist trophy. I had Riki using Bitey-Bitey and inflicting Bleed on anyone hit.
Totally understand your pain, man... But it's super cool of you to work that hard to keep in touch.So, as my net connection takes about an hour to load a single page, I've not seen this thread in three days. Thread moves so fast, Sonic would have trouble keeping up. I now have the opportunity to catch up on the ~33 pages since then - so I've made a summary about what I've just read. In spoilers just so this post isn't huge.

- Xenoblade stage music discussion. Can we have music double-up between Wii U and 3DS versions?
- @
- Took two years for this thread to reach 100 pages. After April '14, it just shot up with Gematsu, #MonadoMonday, and other character reveals leaving people to look at who's left..
- Heropon is best item.
- More laughing/crying at Melia.

"We need to go deeper!"- Speculation on removal of Newcomer banners.

- People posting people remixing/playing Xenoblade music, obliged to link to mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzIDgSRVfqo
- People notice the thread slowing.
This took a solid 2.5 hours to catch up. On 72 hours of content. I feel mentally exhausted, but at least I made it to the end. http://smashboards.com/attachments/alvis-dance_zpsfad13f00-gif.19234/
Kirby's second party too, actually. Nobody remembers that.
I haven't played Xenoblade for a really long time, so memory's kinda fuzzy on the cutscenes... but did Shulk, at that point...
I don't think I'll do it again maybe, my brain feels mushier than Dittson after that.Totally understand your pain, man... But it's super cool of you to work that hard to keep in touch.
Also, that was super accurate! Your powers of observation are truly great...
I think it fit with Shulk's character really well, tbh. He's meant to be the most likable person possible, so I didn't mind that he was being all noble.
Yep.
He couldn't have killed him with the Monado anyways.
Mmm... Well, I guess I'd have to agree that it speaks well of Shulk's character, then. I do remember hearing something from the creator about how he tried to make him a character that 'no one would hate'... And it's true. I certainly don't. But of course that should be obvious, considering what support thread I'm on...
