But cheese is what makes it so good!

Yeah that's true. I still enjoy listening to those intros sometimes but I much prefer the original ones.

Which is ironic because I prefer watching dubbed DBZ most of the time.

*War flashbacks*

Wha?

Just looked it up and yep, that was a cool intro

ZEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm hankering for a Nintendo Direct now.

Hopefully that possible leak from EAin't was right.

Odds are that there's going to be a Direct in January.

I mean pretty much every year there's a direct at the start of the year. 2012 had one in February, 2013 had one in February, 2014 had one in February, 2015 had one in January, 2016 had one in March, and 2017 had it's big Presentation in January.

The only outlier here really is 2016 where it took a bit longer for it's first Direct of the year. Then again 2016 was really scarce when it came to Directs because Nintendo basically gave up on the Wii U and was holding on as long as they could for the Switch.

What would be your reactions if they made Project N for Smash 4? ( Project M sequel ). Oh wait, we got Melee HD.

Lol everyone in the Latino dub sounds like their mobsters or something.

 

[Chrono.]

Right after Chapter 3.

Cool. I just got a third rare so I can’t wait.

And that's a bad thing why?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Wait, I have to challenge immediately after I finished the previous battle in Mario + Rabbids?

Doesn't give me enough time to prepare

 

[Deleted member]

Oh hey, it's just like the Brazilian opening, except in Spanish.
Good to see actual taste has not died in this thread yet

 

[mario123007]

Honestly eh.

Poppi's gimmick is cool and all, but once you get member #4 Tora becomes a bit obsolete in general. #4 is a much better Tank and can use any Blades.

Spoiler

Tora is truly one of the most annoying playable characters in an rpg that I’ve played.

Tbh, I think Riki was way more annoying than Tora...

Tora probably has the best VA for a Nopon, in Japanese VA much like Riki voice was way more cuter...

I agree 100% on that with you.

I'm ok with the NA voices but him...oh my God him and his meh mehs make me wanna gear my hair out

Seriously?
Tatsu was way more worse lol.

Man my favourite thing in XC2 is getting to where I need to after 10 whole ****ing minutes just to get destroyed and respawing ****ing miles away from the spot and having to find the way back to where I need to just to walk near a monster that is 20 levels higher and it hits me with 5000 damage and I gotta do it again like 5 more times before I get to where I need to.

I hate the ****ing map in this.

When you die, you simply just return to the point where you last saved or skip travel to. You don't lose anything.

Next time, just try to avoid places that has high level monsters.

Again, not bragging or anything, if you just feel stumped on XC2 I will do my best to give advice. It's a JRPG afterall, bad things happen a lot in JRPGs

Tbh Rexes pants are not as bad as hearing "Meh meh meh meh mehhhhh!" When Tora collects something from a collection spot

Nah, he usually just say "Tora just take a peek here".

And you can just swap your leading character lol, I go for Nia because she can ride on her Blade Dromarch.

Yeah. Also he’s basically useless once I get another real driver.

Yeah, that's what happen to me for now...

How can you like Tora with that annoying verbal tic of his. Thats the worst anime trope anyone could give a character.

...

Spoiler

I got Gorg and Adenine from common blade crystal things. Cool.

Gorg was my first rare Blade and I got Adenine a few days ago lol.

I haven't gotten to the point in XC2 that you actually meet Tora, but I have a feeling that his voice won't bother me that much.

I guess I just see that as the way that Nopon talk, like how Moogles in FF end their sentences with "Kupo", even though none of the FF games I played have actual Moogles that you meet aside from maybe Cait Sith's Mog.

Rex's design also never really bothered me that much. My only real problem with it is the pants, and even then, that just reminds me of Sora, and I feel like Sora's design is kind of charming.

----------------------------------
Moving on to another topic, I have now bought the Ace Attorney trilogy on the eShop.
It'll be quite a while until I get to playing the games, but I'm looking forward to when I do.

Rex's VA was probably the most disappointing...

Just wait until you reach to the end of chapter 3.... Rex's voice completely falls flat in the very dramatic scene...

I mean...

Spoiler: Chapter 3

Kinda thinking about making posts dedicated to spotlights for ten favorite characters for this thread because I'm bored and stuff. I wonder if anyone would be down to see them.

Not a confirmed decision, just a thought. Even though it's technically very tempting to do so. If not, then yeah sure whatever.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Seriously?
Tatsu was way more worse lol.

Was tetsu the one in X that was always a food joke?

Nah, he usually just say "Tora just take a peek here".

Really? Because on a live stream I was watching Tora colleceted something and itwas just a flood of Mehs coming from him. Maybe the streamer was unlucky that day pff

 

[mario123007]

Oh this is so cool! In Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has side quests where you beat them your only prize is having to do a side quest where you receive another side quest to do!


I’m being very sarcastic if you can’t tell.

Side quests are basically pointless to do in this game.

That's the reason why they are called side quests lol. Story wise, even the Blade quest (This was already teased in the Japan XC2 Direct), which has cutscenes aren't totally main story related. You can neglect them if you want to lol.

Spoiler: Blade quest info (Not really much spoiler)

Compare to XC's side quests, XC2 side quests are more fewer but also more length, but they are more manageable. XC side quest were a lot and a bit hard to know what to do.

Man how long until I get Mythra?

You will get her...

Spoiler

After XCX, most sidequests in XC2 seem pretty underwhelming. Though I just stumbled upon the Praxis/Theory quest arc which I hope is reminiscent of all the wacky **** from X.

You need to know... that XC2 are story focused... sidequest were never that good in Xenoblade... I haven't play X so I can't compare sidequest to XC2, sorry about that when I do a minor rant on this.
But again, also for those who completed the main story already, don't any of you guys even try to complete Blade quests? My goal for now is not completing the main story but also complete every Blade quests. Yep, this means I must get every rare Blades, so for there's only...5 to 6 rare Blades for me to get I think.

About that Praxis/Theory quest, the sequence were pretty serious. However...

Spoiler: The end of this quest

Seriously, how bad are XC2's sidequests that they are worse than XCX's?

Sorry if I am trying to defend this... but...
XC2 sidequests aren't "bad", they are just uninteresting... that said, completing sidequests in XC2 is way more easier compare to the first one.

When can I use 3 blades at once?

After chapter 3 I think... or 4... sorry I kind of forgot...

I just got uhh... Dagas.

Also

Spoiler

Got him too...
and obligatory...

After looking at his heart to heart... man Dagas is pretty similar to Dio.
And hope you can get Floren (Venus Boy Trap) soon lol.

Spoiler

Was tetsu the one in X that was always a food joke?

And tend to be the trouble maker... overall Tatsu was not a very good character....

Really? Because on a live stream I was watching Tora colleceted something and itwas just a flood of Mehs coming from him. Maybe the streamer was unlucky that day pff

Perhaps...
But again... you can just swap the leading character if you can't handle with Tora voice lol.

Yeah at the end I had over five pages of quests built up, and after a certain point I just started ignoring NPCs who had !'s or ?'s.

Had the same problem with the first Xenoblade I think. XCX for me personally was stronger in that area. Thank goodness for that, since I wasn't going to find anything interesting about the main story there...

You may want to go back if you need to raise trust, get EXP points, or items... that's what side quests are for, for bonus stuff for you to get.
And the Blade quest may not be interesting, but they give rare Blades more personality.
Such as...
Boreas likes to eat good stuff like Chowder...
Agate is super afraid of bugs (Whenever you swap your Blade to Agate when battling against insect monsters, she will say "AHHHHHHHH GET THAT AWAY FROM ME! I'M NOT JOKING! GET IT AWAY!")
Dagas is just... arogant
Newt is obviously a military enthusiast...

another note...
This post battle dialogue was pretty hilarious and a bit unexpected:

It was Zeke saying:
I demand Praxis taking off her eyepatch! You are infringing Zeke's copyright!

I kind of forgot what Praxis said, but I remember she just railed back at Zeke.

XC2 has some unexpected dialogue, downside is some.... were awkwardly long...

Zeke: Ah I feel my left arm hurting again...
Nia: Wasn't it your right? C'mon, get your story straight shellhead!

Tora: Wow, Dromach always seems to be calm, can you teach me how Dromarch?

Dromach: The first step is STOP KEEP MENTIONING ME FOR BEING CALM!

Tora: Tora will come hurty hurty!!!!

Nia: Yeah, pretty useful as a decoy.

Post Chain attack quotes

Rex: Wow, we were awesome!

Nia: (sometimes) MMMEEEEEOOOWWWW~~~~~~

It's a generalisation, alright. And as you said, a mechanic is usually what will tell players that something wrong is not right, it's just that equipment restrictions are the most common

Betting on it being based mainly on Hoshido, with the other two being Hinoka and Ryoma as we already got a seasonal Sakura

They freed him... *sniff* he is freeeee~

Finally got around to starting Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Took me quite a while to get to a game I was formerly so excited for

This is. . .definitely a xenoblade game. Only beat the first chapter and then played two more cutscenes, but it still feels like Xeno. The 3 hit combo thing is interesting, but dman did combat feel clunky at level 1. Arts being tied to it is also a huge change im not sure how I feel about yet because there is so much more to play.

Feels like they throw a tutorial prompt every 3 seconds but I guess that is to be expected. Blades seem like they will be a bit complicated but again, we'll see.

Current favorite thing- the locations. Monolith is fantastic at making breathtaking locations to run through in xenoblade games, goddamn.


2 hours in. . .4 billion to go.

[mario123007]

Side quests usually give you something useful. These give you more side quests.

And once you completed you do get something worth, sometimes I guess lol.

Similar with previous Xenoblade, completing quests can help you raise your Blade's trust, which some are required to unlock certain affinity charts, if you want to get rare Blades more easily. You have unlock those affinity charts, and doing quests are one of the ways to do that.

 

[Deleted member]

Oh yeah, better tag @Erureido
Rip his Orbs
Get ready for a powercreep tacomeat

 

[AmericanDJ]

Well I beat chapter 1 today.

I really like the way that the chapter ended.

The combat feels somewhat slow, but I have a feeling it'll get better, as the battle at the end of the chapter felt faster than any of the other battles so far.
Overall, I'm looking forward to the rest of the game and I can tell it's going to be a lot of fun.

 

[Chrono.]

Oh god.

So there's a big Arachno in this area that I'm in but if you get close to it you'll get this ****ing MASSIVE Tyrant Arachno crawling behind you.

I am beyond grossed out among other unpleasant feelings.

Have some money on my eshop account....

After some consideration and a bit of research in the form of game reviews...It seems Steamworld Dig 2 and Enter the Gungeon seem like good choices...Also my buddy's been practically begging me to get Enter the Gungeon for my Switch...he's played it a lot on Steam...

Worms can wait for now...plus the price and over 4GBs of space is sort of turning me away from the game for now...perhaps if there's a sale...

Also I'll be starting Xenoblade soon, so there's that...

 

[praline]

Man I like the game but a lot of characters have pretty lame designs. I just fought this Zeke guy, and it’s pretty obvious he’s gonna be a party member since one of the silhouettes in the blade list is his blade, just like how the Morag chick’s blade is also in the blade list.

You should get a microSD card whenever possible. I've got a 128 GB card myself.

If you do have one, then, uh, whoops. Then perhaps get a larger-capacity card.
