Xenoblade Chronicles X discussion

[Modular Zeal]

I was looking around the site for a thread to take about the new Xenoblade game, but my search came up short. So, I just made this hoping to start a discussion or possibly get pointed to where a discussion is currently happening that I missed.

Over here's perfectly fine. There's Nintenzone too which works, since some of the other (and smaller) Nintendo franchises sort of end up at both places like Fire Emblem.

I for one am excited for the game. I really want to hear a release date for the US.

Yeah, just waiting to hear about a NA release date. Other than that, I'm trying to stay away from learning too much about it.

The Iwata Asks for this was posted the other day though.

Some interesting stuff there. I liked this part.

Iwata: The localization process must be quite a challenge, too! (laughs)

Kojima: Yes, that's why I felt very sorry about what I'd done... Also, I was very sorry to throw such a workload at Mario Club.

Iwata: Ah, it must've been quite some job for Mario Club, too.

Kojima: I was so focused on creating the game that I didn't pay attention to who had to take care of the aftermath.

Iwata: When I saw the invoice for Mario Club's testing fees, I froze up for a moment.

Kojima: I'm not surprised...

Iwata: I even said out loud, "Why are these numbers so high!" (laughs)

There was one part of the Iwata Asks that I read which one of the creators, Takahashi, said the size of all 5 continents that make p the world are 400 square kilometers! Maybe I did some math wrong but I got about 150 square miles converted, which is insane! This has made me way more hyped to explore this huge world, which from how they explained it in the Iwata Ask is packed full of content.

P.S. If I am wrong about the size of the world please let me know
