Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Direct was pretty neat but I'm not interested enough to get it.

Besides, I still need to beat the original game.

I recommend you to but for now I don't think it is necessary.
Also the Japanese website has new artwork for characters like Mythra and Pandoria

So... This proves that Blades are really like Pokémon... They can evolve... Or more like Digimon...

That said I'm pretty sure there won't be more than that... WHOAWHOAWHOA---------------------

You can't do this to us Saitou... You can't do this to us... This is out of border... (not really)
Edit: what a good time for image to be broken...

So is no one going to talk about the fact that we got crossover content in Breath of the Wild?

Honestly, I think Rex's outfit suits Link more than it does Rex himself.

Sadly that I actually agree.

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

@Xeno VII pointed out something on Twitter. So I'm about to test something.

Yo****sune

Edit: LOL WELCOME TO THE DICKSON CLUB!

 

[Deleted member]

I feel like mentioning that there's a character in Xenoblade 2 called Yo****sune.

Now watch the censors do their magic.

It's just an outfit.

If we had a bonus dungeon where we battle against a Shulk who's really feeling it, then we'd be talking.

BotW is one of those games that would benefit greatly from a Fashion Gear option because I want to wear the Hylian Hood but I can't because 99% of the time I need one of the side effects from the other clothes either because I'm freezing to death, burning to death, being killed to death or climbing to death.

I love every single word in that sentence.

 

[praline]

Welp... I think I’m done with Odyssey.

Got 549 moons and pretty much every moon left is impossible for me to get so onto another game I guess.

 

[Coricus]

"Now you too can dress up like a garbage can!"

Ex-cuuuuse me, it's called a scuba suit with fanservice.

It's not dignified no but it is hilarious. The impracticality loops back around to being charming in large part because people complain about it so much and as a Sonic fan that's a sign that something is actually legit good that the usual people with bad taste are just too busy looking for things to complain about to get.

Honestly, I think Rex's outfit suits Link more than it does Rex himself.

Oddly I feel like I'm the one person who doesn't think that. Wearing it with light hair feels kinda odd. Or maybe I just like the exaggerated super anime Xenoblade 2 artstyle more. Either way something feels off.

Still probably going to goof around in it, let's see those pants in action!

Also something fun to note, but this is probably a thing because Monolith Soft worked on both games at the same time, right? It's kinda cute to imagine them making this for free because they're proud of both their child and their stepchild, LOL.

YOU CAN DO IT! I BELIEVE IN YOU!

Holy **** they got Support Xander for Warriors

Too bad Heroes had to deal with Story Xander :/
His voice is atrocious tho

Bandai-Namco have three more exclusive games coming to the Switch. The reason they didn't have more games sooner was because they didn't expect the Switch to be so successful so quickly.

And of course, some people think one of those exclusives is Super Smash Bros.

 

[praline]

YOU CAN DO IT! I BELIEVE IN YOU!

... I think...

If you beleive in me not playing Odyssey anymore.

Don't worry, Grampa Xandy loves you just the same.

I was rearranging my room and one of my tables broke in the process. It was a cheap setup table that's about six years old. So now I can't play my computer for awhile. Least until I can get a new one. I have another table but its way too small.

And my couch still has a missing leg and I've yet to be able to fix it. Fortunately I got that couch for free so if I toss it, I'm not really missing out on anything. Its kind of low to the floor as well, and being a big guy myself, that does a number on my knees. I'm gonna need to raise it up a little.

Finally, I rearranged my room so my bed isn't in front of my window. The sealing to the window has to be fixed before the snow arrives, else this is gonna be one cold winter.

So yeah. That's my status of the day. My back hurts, my nose is stuffy due to the dust from vacuuming, and my room isn't even done. But I moved around, so it was a better day than most.

[Ura]

...I really need to finish my Xenoblade 1 playthrough.

I put that on hold for like a year and a half now.

I meant getting all the Moons, but you can believe in me saying whatever you want me to say

I kinda grew to like Xanders voice in Warriors. I guess rhe VA just did a different turn then what he did in Fates.

 

[praline]

Huzzah! I can finally see what happens in the Android arc in DB Xenoverse!

It’s either interfering Janemba or Broly.

Maybe one is Taiko

Please be Taiko

 

[Megadoomer]

For Xenoblade Chronicles 2, I haven't seen the Direct yet, but I'd like to finish the first one or X before I look into it. I've got enough Switch games on my plate between Mario Odyssey, Sonic Forces (which I just picked up today), and Doom (by the end of the week).

I'm further along on Xenoblade Chronicles (I have all but one party member), but even then, I still feel like I have a long way to go, even if I ignore (or don't focus on) sidequests from now on.

 

[Aurane]

Jesus. Not only did I break my ass moving all this ****, but I did it wrong.

That's a good four hours dead.

But I did sweep and vacuum so not all is wasted.

If only I knew how to use common sense. Maybe I would of gotten it done right. Lol

 

[Knight Dude]

For anyone who hasn't heard, Brian Micheal Bendis is leaving Marvel Comics, if someone didn't mention it before.

I know his stuff wasn't at his best lately. But he did leave a lasting legacy with his Daredevil run in the 90's and especially with the original Ultimate Spider-Man run being one of the most influential modern comic books, having a lot of elements being implemented into movies, cartoons and games.

He'll be working at DC. Though I feel like now Marvel's lost most of its best comic writers, with Peter David and Gerry Conway occasionally showing up.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Please be Taiko

Pretty sure a Taiko no Tatsujin for Switch game was confirmed months ago. http://taikotime.blogspot.com/2017/01/taiko-no-tatsujin-now-decisively-coming.html

Did they give a year that its gonna come out yet?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Not that I know of

 

[Knight Dude]

Meanwhile, others are expecting one of them to be Dragon Ball FighterZ.

I mean, it should get a Switch Port. Clearly a lot of people do want to play it, both casually and competitively.

The Possum brought it up.

Yeah, I didn't notice until it was too late.

Speaking of DC though, Injustice 2 did have its livestream for Hellboy. He does seem to be a pretty straightforward fighter. I heard that he's been compared to Doomsday, but with a normal projectile.

And for those wondering, the third Fighter Pack is getting shown off this Friday on the 10th.

 

[Chrono.]

So apparently both my Forces copy and Odyssey copy (which is over 2 weeks late) get here on Monday.

That's gonna be interesting.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I think Dragon Ball Super is getting a little absurd with Kafla's power

Stronger than Vegito (Buu arc), who was the combined strength of Vegeta and Goku, both warriors that had spent their lives fighting and dying. Getting those Zenkai boosts.

Then here comes these street punks and suddenly their power rivals them enough that Goku has to use

Spoiler

Ultra Instinct

In order to keep up?

 

[Arcanir]

Took a look at the Xenoblade 2 direct.

Personally, I do like some of the changes and additions they're adding to the combat. The use of multiple blades kind of give it a collective feel and the use of their different abilities to adapt and change the tide of battle I feel will add a good amount of depth to the system. Ideally, the combat should be at its best here and I look forward to seeing more of how it evolves as the game gets closer to release. As for the story, I like some of what we've seen of a couple of the characters so far (Nia, Azurda, and Dromarch for example) and the life bond element between Pyra and Rex is interesting, but the story isn't grabbing me as much yet. It just doesn't quite hook me in yet, and I'm not sure how much I'll be invested in it. That can easily change though as more is being revealed currently and to the twitter's credit it has given out some details that did impress me when watching it in passing, so there may be more to it that I'm not getting at the moment.

In short, Xenoblade 2 is shaping up to be a game I'm interested in, but with some of the other games coming out that catch my interest a bit more it may have to wait a bit before I pick it up.

I'm kind of curious what games they have in mind, there's not a lot of franchises that scream Nintendo-only with them, so I wonder which ones they have in mind. Personally, as unlikely as it is, I'd like to see Soul Calibur come back for the Switch.

 

[Deleted member]

Juuni Taisen is probably this Season's hidden gem, at least for me.
It's a Death Game anime that actually works with its premise instead of using it as just the background for the plot(yeah, you know who I'm talking about).
Like, Plot Armor? This show doesn't know what that is, all bets are off and it's pretty exciting to not have any idea on who will win, even if your favorite gets killed.

 

[Aetheri]

Tieing up loose ends in SMO...

Doom to come will pick it up if I have the funds around the time (I actually might since I'm doing better financially, and am actually ahead on bills believe it or not)

Rocket League a week away...just waiting for release...

BOTW DLC pack 2 whenever it'll release...

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 SE already paid for...

Skyrim whenever I'll feel like getting it...


Switch is going to be pretty busy going forward this winter after having a small drought (for myself) during the end of summer and start of fall...

 

[mario123007]

That said here is a chart I found on the Japanese Xenoblade 2 website.

I wish I can translate this...

I'm pretty sure this isn't the entire main cast in Xenoblade 2, I doubt Torna is only formed with three geeks.
And the connection isn't true with Zeke and his Blade since we all know he will became one of the crew later in the game.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

yeah, you know who I'm talking about).

You talkin about Kings game, right?

Yeah, same thing with some clothes only having one defense.
I wanna wear the Dark Link outfit without it being hard mode

Holy **** they got Support Xander for Warriors

gosh why does Xander sound like a educational video game mascot.

EDIT: I didn't notice I quoted Shish twice ;(

 

[Coricus]

So since Forces wouldn't stop being backordered I cancelled it and ah. . .

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Xenoblade 2 isn't even out yet. I still never checked Skyrim videos to see if I would like it.

I'm gonna be buried.

If there's a drought all the way to Kirby Star Allies next spring I'm probably still going to have a backlog of games I need to make progress in.

 

[Chrono.]

I've walked out of every Xenoblade 2 trailer wishing it was X2 instead. I'm still getting it though. Probably won't get the season pass unless I end up loving the game.

It's not terribly hard to believe.

Potara fusion is stupid OP (see: Zamasu) and we already knew Caulifla and Kale are stronger than your average Saiyans, especially Kale. But even then, we already know Toriyama doesn't give a **** about power levels.

On top of this Goku is apparently still recovering from the Jiren fight, so even though he could handle two people, a fused warrior would be far more than he could handle.

Spoiler

Most importantly we don't know how the story is gonna play out. If Kefla just straight up wales on Goku and he goes UI then yeah that's kinda questionable, but something else could happen that actually triggers UI
