PlayStation and Xbox fanboys think it's the other way around. Graphics > gameplay following their pitiful logic. Sad, but true. How the mighty have fallen. This is your average gamer today.

I always thought the Xbox fanboys and fangirls were the ones defending the Xbone for being slightly less powerful than the PS4.

 

[Oasis Dealer]

Falkoopa amiibo eh? inb4 crashboards happens even more frequently.

Speaking of Falcondorf, I get the impression that people who complain about Ganondorf's moveset in Smash are a vocal minority.

This is so true it hurts.

Every fanbase is ****.
Gameplay is far more important than staring at visuals.

It's more of a general thing.

 

[Frostwraith]

No, I don't. I said I was losing hype for this game before the graphical downgrade. And to be fair, the graphical downgrade doesn't help. Have you listened to its OST? It's nowhere near the masterpiece that Xenoblade Chronicles was. The artstyle also isn't very appealing. And it simply looks way more complex than the original, so much so that I don't think it'll be fun.

What did you expect from a game that since the beginning had a different premise, was revealed to have a different character designer and different music composer?

Honestly, people who were expecting Xenoblade X to be like Xenoblade, even though it had been stated it would be a very different game from the predecessor, have been setting themselves to disappointment.

Anyway if you really don't like the game, then don't buy it. It's that simple.

Unfortunately enough.

I'd rather play a 80's game with 8-bit graphics but that is fun and has good gameplay than a game of this century with HD graphics but with bad gameplay.

Gameplay is the most important thing in a game. The rest complement it.

I'm not condemning the evolution of graphics. Good graphics can make the game look appealing, but they aren't the most important thing. Same goes for music and such.

And Xenoblade X doesn't look too bad. It was a slight graphical downgrade perhaps to make it run smoothly or something like it.

It's not even a significant downgrade either. Just toned down lighting and little more.

Like that is going to ruin the game.

Playstation fans are not like that. They are more civilize like Nintendo fans. It's the Xbone fan that make Playstation fans look bad.

Does that include the Pewdiepie fanbase?

Found this interesting...

Mr. Smash, when I say "every fanbase" I mean every. PewDiePie's fanbase is on a whole new level of stupid.

Look at The Order: 1886. Ouch.

When your game has good graphics and is lacking in gameplay... we have a problem there.

 

[Frostwraith]

Gameplay is the most important thing in a game, but I won't deny that the rest help compliment it.

Priority, however, should be the gameplay. If Xenoblade X had to downgrade the graphics to run better, thus benefiting gameplay, then it's the right design choice. They're making a game, not an animated movie, so they set the priorities on the gameplay.

Yeah, me too. The fact that graphics are all the rage (apparently) these days makes me lose brain cells. I don't care if something is the most super hyper mega ultra turbo extremely realistic game of all time, I just want great gameplay.

What if it's a interactive movie?

The plot comes after the gameplay.

if falkoopa/other mods were actual playable characters would their stage be Smashboards, and would a final smash be closing a thread?
Edit: Loucan could be the main man, and the other mods would be alt costumes.

 

[ZeldaMaster]

Let me clarify. Yes, gameplay does come before graphics. When I said I was losing hype For Xenoblade X, I said the graphics were the final nail in the coffin. But before that, I thought the gameplay looked pretty meh and too complicated for its own good. If you like the gameplay that Xenoblade X offers, then by all means, to each his own.

I will say this: Gameplay is the most important part of a game. I get that. The thing is, there does need to be a good balance of gameplay and visuals. Most people will go off of first impressions. The first thing that captures their eyes would be the graphics. This is mostly a problem with consumers, but it's the sad truth. Your game needs to have a nice visual design to look at. This is more of a prefrence thing if any, since people like retro-style graphics, while others like realistic graphics.

(Would like to point out, I know you're not saying graphics don't matter at all. This is just my perspective on the whole thing.)

Didn't we talk about a Social Thread Smash Bros. like two threads ago?

How can you judge a game for it game play from a game you haven't even played? The game play from all the videos I seen looks the same or a improvement from the first Xenoblade, I don't see how it's different from Xenoblade.

Just realized that I'll be spending $19.19 on the eShop this week.

Then there's Splatoon next month (still deciding if I'm getting the game physical or digital), Then , then E3...

Oh jeez!

Digital. It's only 1.8 gigs, so it won't take too long to download.

 

[ZeldaMaster]

Digital. It's only 1.8 gigs, so it won't take too long to download.

But physical copies are so much better

Memory space won't be a problem with a 2 TB hard drive.

But I'll keep that in mind.

 

[CrusherMania1592]

Yeah, I think I'll wait until I am in a more stable situation IRL. My mom is already complaining about me wasting my life away. Going through three different routes in a VN will take even more time I think...

I feel ya man. Just stand up to her and tell her it's your life. If she doesn't accept it, then you'd have to get her to **** off. Pretty much why I went to college out of state: to avoid mom physically except during breaks lol

We're talking about Medusa? Best thing possible is that she becomes a DLC boss. Worst thing possible is DLC boss

 

[Wario Bros.]

I've been slowly caring less for physical (but it'll be quite a LONG time before I ditch physical altogether).

It's nowhere near the masterpiece that Xenoblade Chronicles was. The artstyle also isn't very appealing. And it simply looks way more complex than the original, so much so that I don't think it'll be fun.

So apparently you can listen to the full game's OST before its even out.

Ok then.

On the topic of the ballot, does anyone have the most reliable site that shows lists of how popular certain characters are?

That's exactly what I said when I saw gameplay for Xenoblade Chronicles.


And then I played it.


Then I took back what I said before.

Not much seems to have changed and the font still looks the same from my view. Probably it's one of these things that will take an hour until it comes into effect.

 

[aldelaro5]

Not on my end.

so, I found that google chrome cached my font so even if I removed it locally, it only worked for me.

I trying to load it from a web link hosted on tumblr, but it seems it didn worked....

Worth noting: Gamexplain analyzed an early trailer for the game and noticed that there were frequent drops in frame rate. Presumably this drop in fidelity was done in order to fix this.

Just voted for Conker on the ballot.

So it's Xenoblades Chronicles all over again?

It's to be expected since many developers would have to make a final resort when pushing the space capabilities of any game. Not like there's a problem since Xenoblade's models aged pretty well on the Wii.

Cool. Although people wouldn't like him in the roster for some reason.
