So people hated Xenoblade 2 because....it had boobs?

ye

>>713514275 (OP)
basically, yes.
/v/ is just faggots and bots, didn't you know?

>>713514275 (OP)
>y-you just don't like it because it has tits
Gachafag logic. In truth game quality and tit quantity are two separate values. You can have a good game with tits, but more often than not they're added in to bait idiots into playing garbage. See: Stellar Blade.

Correct. The game was only really disliked by homosexuals.

>>713515228
>>/v/ is just faggots and bots, didn't you know?
I remember /v/ trashing the game for being too lewd, which is funny because normalfags also trashed it for the same thing pretty much
>>713515260

>Gachafag logic. In truth game quality and tit quantity are two separate values.
I never implied that they aren't separate, I am just saying that people are prudes and never actually criticized the game for anything besides "it's weeb shit"
It's funny how times change. If only it was released now.

Ahem.

>>713515479
>it's bad because I don't like it
Intriguing.

>>713514275 (OP)
xb 1 and X were good games without the otaku anime pandering, 2 came out and now the games are 'japanese humor' and the old games get changed and ruined to fit with takahashi's xenoblade 2 wank

>>713514275 (OP)
Kind of the opposite. Coomers only liked it because it had boobs, whereas normal people hate it because it's a shit game.

yeah exactly
although that tutorial was so bad

'ate harems, simple as.

>game shows skin and literally ends with the protag getting laid with at least 3 women

>op is somehow confused as to why this game is hated by the modern audience
having sex is bad

>>713514275 (OP)
It went like this.
>bunch of twitter troons harass Nintendo's twitter account
>"this game sold gangbusters but i guess these shrieking manginas and harpies know better, tone down the sex appeal for the sequel"

>>713514275 (OP)
It became popular to hate on Xenoblade 2 for being horny because videogamedunkey made a video about it.

>>713516007
>8 million views
>eeeeh I hate boobs over 'ere: the video
why does this happen

>>713516007
for me it was the xb3 photograph of doom

>>713516007
Literally not okay when Nintendo does it, this board is 50% gacha dump threads at any time of the day and no one bitches about the girls in them

Gacha system bad.
First half of story mostly bad.
Game performs and looks like ass.
Gameplay takes way longer to get fun.
A lot of the designs are ugly, busy shit.

Nobody giving a fuck that XB3 had titty monsters and tons of hetero content is proof that people take more issue with the designs themselves and the lame otaku comedy.

I have a theory....that the OTHER rpg makers made the anti-boob campaign to anger "THAT kind of person to hate the game

>>713515749
The remasters of 1 and X were good.
3 was good.
Cope.

>>713516163
did anyone even play 3 outside of the land of the rising chink?

>>713516268
I'd hope so, the game kicked ass.

>>713516268
almost 2 million copies sold surely someone played it

>>713514275 (OP)
I hated it because the characters were obnoxious, it was derivative, goofy, stupid, had pointless gacha mechanics, and, yes, the art style was (intentionally apparently) all over the place.

>>713516473
Game had to grab a bunch of shit from all over because a bunch of the company was working on Zelda. You can really tell between the crowd sourced character designs and the really ugly UI. It's good given the circumstances but it didn't get as much polish and love as 1 and 3.

>>713516069
this video gets hourly comments about how cringe and weeby the game is lol

too many blades with boobs.. Im here to play a game not to watch hentai... If i wanted that I would go to those websites

>>713514275 (OP)
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is hated because it's first 10 hours are like the worst gaming a person can experience. I've never been so irritated in my life.

>>713516163
I think it's more that XB2's designs are way more garish and overdesigned
XB3's designs in comparison, even if still sexualized, look unusually urban and "normal" for the genre, like you could go outside cosplaying Taion and no one would bat an eye

>>713516790
I'm glad I stuck with it but yeah.

dunkey and other tendie youtubers and smash pedos killed any fandom or hopes for regular xenoblade threads and discourse in the west

I'm actually having a lot of fun with XC2. I feel bad for nearly skipping it

>>713516837
I mean yeah, that's what I mean by "A lot of the designs are ugly, busy shit."

Pyra's design would honestly be better if it lost all the straps and the latex tummy window for an actual crop top, for example.

>>713516790
Yeah I can agree with this

>>713516163
of course, it's always about muh designs because you don't need to engage with the game for more than a glance.

if you liked the girls in this game then you are the problem

I hate it because the writing is awful and the game design is abysmal on all fronts and it runs like shit

>>713517141
How did you manage to ignore all the post talking about several things besides character design?

This game really makes you FEEL like a sex offender

>>713517337
But I've never used Tora

The game has several underdressed underage-looking Blades you can own like a Pokemon. Not to mention the fact that Poppi (another underage looking character) has fully modeled underwear you can very easily peek into by moving the camera under her skirt in her second form. Do I even need to mention Floren, the young boy that’s dressed and sounds like a girl? I’m pretty sure the police can and have used official Floren art to catch predators before.

forget zelda, 8 years later and xb2 is still getting unhinged seethe threads

>>713515749
yeah xenoblade 1 and X had plenty of fanservice but it wasn't shoved into the players face so it was easier to take the story and setting seriously while also being able to stick all the characters in bunnysuits if you wanted

>>713517493
so it gets a pass if the characters aren't 'anime' looking then?

>>713517553
yes, and it better have a simple story and no british accents as that's weird and cringe

>>713514275 (OP)
yes sir

>>713517684
you dislike anime aesthetics and you don't like the brit dub? huh

>>713517553
yeah

it and liberty city are different sides of the same coin
people hated the former because they were told that it has no point besides killing innocents, people hated the latter because they were told you date children and it objectifies women

>>713517225
because it's all garbage and xb2 is a fantastic game. you can schizo babble at me all you want I'm not reading it.

>>713517756
>>you dislike anime aesthetics and you don't like the brit dub?
yeah I am completely soulless like that you see everyone should have a standard american accent, and no visible skin showing at all and if anyone acts cute once then oh boy....

>>713517830
Porbably the first time I have seen GTA and Xenoblade in the same sentence

>>713517684

anon I am being ironic, I love shit like that

>>713517976
imagine hating the dubs of these games lmao

>>713514275 (OP)
Uglier art style. Xenoblade 1 was peak art.

>>713518098
only xc1's dub is good, the rest are unacceptable

I've only played the first game, and I loved it honestly
Seeing how the rest of the series manages to cause controversy and anger no matter what is a bit demoralising

>>713518098
Imagine thinking the dub of XC2 is good.
XC1 dub is great, yes.

>>713514275 (OP)
>So people hated Xenoblade 2 because....it had boobs?
People? Nah, mostly westerners. Xenoblade 2 had the most popular characters in the series, sell the most merch from the series, and it was also the game that put the series on the map. This is another case of never listen to westerners, theyll literally tell you to do the opposite of what made your game successful.

>>713518189
dunno haven't played that one yet

>>713516586
Dunkey is an unfunny talentless faggot with Reddit-subhumans as the majority of his “fans”. Old fucking news

>>713518195
a westerner sold me on these series when they were doing the whole operation downfall thingy
but yeah I can see where you're coming from considering the state of the industry now

>lefties and the modern audience still seething that 3 bombed

>>713518319

>>713518362
Congrats, it outsold a port lmfao

>>713514275 (OP)
I never gave the XBC games a try because the ui looked WAY too busy for me. Is it something you get used to? Or do you gotta have a knack for it? I play games to unwind, not keep track of 12+ gauges/meters/stats

>>713518395
and the original, more than twice its numbers, in fact

I wonder how we'll be looking back on Monolith's next RPG and how it'll be rated

>>713518098
2’s English dub is the worst. X’s sounds fine, but it’s heavily localized with script changes.
1 was really good for being done in 2011. 3 used the same voice director too (Mark Healy).
Monolith doesn’t have the tech to do lip flap sync per language (look at FF7 Rebirth’s), so JP is way more consistent.

I have a shitload of little issues with XB2, i was thoroughly annoyed with it when i was playing it 3 years ago. Dogshit ui, absolutely abhorrent field skill system, weird pacing where they jammed several filler arcs to pad the runtime, boring as fuck side quests.
But none of this matters because the game genuinely had a fantastic atmosphere, surprisingly good story, vibrant world and fun characters/music, and that's what i still remember about it. Honestly, I remember more things about 2 than about 3.

I consider replaying it, but i wonder if there are some quality of life mods to improve the experience. Wouldn't mind to just turn off field skill requirements because they can go to hell with the menuing.

>>713518548
that's midna!

>>713514275 (OP)
It was an offline gacha game. This game would have been an actual gacha if only it had been released post-Genshin Impact. Don't be surprised if Nintendo gets it in their heads to make the remake an actual gacha. Sure, it will EOS quickly, but they might just try it anyway.

>>713518519
That’s nice dear. 2 is my favorite in the series and 3 sold less despite there being more switch’s in the wild.
Because people can’t stand woke shit. That was true when 3 came out, today, and 10 years from now.

>>713518519
>XB3: 1.9 million
>XB1: 900K
>XB1DE: 1.8

>>713518665
>That’s nice dear.
Yeah it's really nice when your argument gets demolished immediatelly like yours did
>Because people can’t stand woke shit. That was true when 3 came out, today, and 10 years from now.
which is why it's the second best selling game in this franchise lmao

>>713518665
Nah 3 is a third sequel released on the same system. Sequels always sell less than the first game released on the same system. Just how it works.

Happened with Resi Evil (except 2)
Happened with FF
Happened with BOTW/TOTK
Happened with Donkey Kong Country

Many other examples

>>713518186
I was in the same boat as you. I was actually going to skip 2 because the only things I knew about it was the porn and JAPANESE HUMOR. I walked in on a Xenoblade X thread to ask for some honest commentary about 2. For the record I think >>713518548 has the best summation in this thread. There are a lot of little issues that kind of pile up. But after clearing the main game and the DLC I can say that I genuinely enjoyed my time with XC2, in spite of its flaws. The garish artstyles, character designs, and what I'll charitably call "anime moments" are window dressing to some genuine heart that does exist in this game.

I'm going to do a NG+ run but I'm excited to go into 3 eventually well I was, I'm hearing some things about 3. Mostly that it was pointless or filler. But I think I'm enough of a fan to want to see for myself

>>713518994
3 sold less than 2. That’s literally the only fact I care about and I’ve been smugly shitting up 3 threads since release because of it.

>>713515479
Nobody is reading all of that. Just tell them that the characters are shitty and annoying, designed like hoyotrash, and that their game is a full priced gacha.

I separate the world between people who plays XC3 and think "it has one of the best party members in any JRPG ever!!!" and people who disliked every party member there.
If you are in the former group, you don't have a soul. You could easily be tricked by some AI bot in a discord.
If you are in the latter group, you do have a soul. You notice when characters lack real charisma and is not fooled by some shallow dialogue, little quirks or suggestive music. You know deep down there is something hollow there. Like the character is a philosophical zombie.

Notice that the former group also hates XC2.

Niggas will come out as trans to their christian boomer parents and then say they fear of someone finding out they enjoy anime games

but they still love mortal kombat

Game is great, funny heartwarming story where for once MC is not out to kill god but actually thanks him for everything, he literally saves the universe and gets an harem of 10/10s as a reward, it's an amazing game only held down by the Switch shitty hardware.

It also sold more than XBC3 btw

People who get offended from skimpy clothing can go die in a ditch for all I care, I'm old enough to remember simpler times and I've got a wife, I'll leave them to their sexless and boring (but internet approved!) life.

It wasn’t the censored DEI slop, nope. Or the nignog. The modern audience just wasn’t aware it released or something.

>>713521334
1.9 million people were aware tho

>>713518897
I finally got around to 3 after the shitstorm blew over and its the sort of experience that was better and somehow a lot worse than I expected. Every interesting idea is marred by two baffling ones and I think its less filler as it is systematic bloat that arises from having 6 man party as the core. The narrative has to constantly devote time to them, the combat has to be thinned to spread your impact for them, the accessories have to be split up for them, and it all culminates in more stuff that seems great at first, but quickly dilutes instead of enhances. Which would be fine if it wasn't fundamentally broken - even with the level-down mod, I was almost capped out of every resource by chapter 3 and still had dozens of side quests waiting.
And then, of course, you get the JRPG final act effect which always tends to trivialize the events that precede it and while Xeno games are no different, 3 intentionally undercuts a lot more than I think people tolerated. Which, again, would have been a lot more palatable if they reached it in 1/2 of the amount of time and for this reason, I honestly would recommend switching on Easy and skipping past the enemies the moment you hit the burn out. Because chances are, there'll be 30+ hours left in the game when you get it and I still think it's relatively satisfying to finish it. Or at least, the game gives you so many rollercoaster of emotions (going from the best evolution of the combat with grounded characters in an interesting world, to hating how much art and combo spam on the spongey enemies while your drab characters get monologed by another goofy ass villain) that you kind of want to see it through.
Also, I pray you know some basic JP because the subs are an absolute travesty at points.

I'm sorry, but if you truly think that the menu system of XC2 isn't one of the most horrid systems to have ever been created, then there must be something seriously wrong with you.

Honestly? Yes.
Americans are ok with sexy woman as long as they don't have big boobs. That is because deep down big boobs is what is actually attractive to straight man and big ass is just some meme fetish.

1 had soul. 2 had no soul since it pandered to otaku who got butthurt at no Nia in the ending. And making both girls live instead of having balls.

It's hilarious when normalfags cry about anime games on an otaku board hosted on an otaku website. And then celebrate the regressive, lesser choices of western rpgs.

>>713524418
just because *you specifically* like it doesn't make it a "good" design. it doesn't fit her character or personality at all, and the game constantly subverts it's own message and tone by very deliberately sexualizing it's characters during important moments (see >>713524369), or by just constantly interspersing random bits of anime ass and titties in your face for legitimately no reason (see picrel, where there is zero reason to have her boobs take up half the screen here)

It's from Rex's POV and she has huge tits. Hence why she would be in his frame of view. Which is awesome and you're a pathetic loser whining about superior 2D anime girls on 4chan of all places. I know the fringe minority of trash loves to mouth off, but this is beyond the pale.

Xenoblade 2 and Stellar Blade making troons and homos seething hard. Kek. Your game will never sell unless you put in hot anime girls with tiddies

>>713524703
this. zero clue why coomers defend this literal piece of shit when the creator has done better coomer shit than this before

>>713524641
1 and 2 are successful. 3 and X arent.

game would be better with more rex tbdesu

>>713518186
xenoblade 2 is excellent, but the dubs/trannylations are pretty bad, so play it in Japanese.
However, in many ways it is also very different than xenoblade1, and if you want more of the same you may be disappointed. Just go into it with an open mind and enjoy it. I thought I was going to hate it at first but it won me over.

>>713524785
It's because of the reaction it caused among puritan normalfags who are still shocked that videogames have fanservice, nobody here has actually played the game, I bet.

>>713524836
ok, could someone here explain me the hate for X? its favorite of the 4 and I have no fucking clue why people will hate it

>>713524843
now someone's talking my language, fagese

>>713524629
You take video games too seriously anon. Get some air.

>>713514275 (OP)
Back then, yeah. But not anymore since the possers liked the protagonist after he fucked those boobs and a cat at the same time.

I've always liked Rex as a character so I'm different from them.

>>713524629
>very deliberately sexualizing it's characters during important moments (see >>713524369)
If you actually played the game, the emphasis here is obviously on her hands to show her apprehension. Just because you can't help yourself from compulsively masturbating when sexy women on screen doesn't mean that shot was "pointless fanservice"

>>713524934
Forced english dub on the Wii U which was horrible and it was censored.

>>713524836
>3 isn't successful even if it's the second highest selling game in the franchise
I will just keep saying this

>>713524975
you wish lol

>>713524975
>the emphasis here is obviously on her hands
Which is why the tits fill 70 percent of the screen.

THIS IS THE MONADO'S POWER

>anon is unironically gay to the point where a well designed female character scares him when he plays the game
lmao

>>713525001
I do not know japanese and I can pinpoint the times where something is really wrong while listening the japanese dub.

xenoblade could have become the next final fantasy, instead it become a bunch of commer bait and mid games, i fucking hate 2fags

>>713525226
I'm bi and I like how all games pander to me with all these hot ass designs

>>713514275 (OP)
I would say it was a combination of the Internet purity club deciding it didn't pass their ethics standards, the "gacha" aspect of collecting blades, and the complexity of the battle system that almost required a guide to learn to use. Personally the gacha system only bothered me once I was trying to go for certain blades to 100% the collection. Just meant lots of sitting and watching the pull scenes over and over. My opinion back then was that it was a neat idea to make it so everyone's party was a bit different. You weren't supposed to grind for certain blades. You were supposed to have a unique party and play with that, to a degree

>>713524948
game would be 10x better if the sexualization was equal, but takahashi was too much of a heteroid coomer hack for that

>>713516163
>Gacha system bad.
Super easy to farm core crystals. Non issue.
>First half of story mostly bad.
Meme opinion from zoomers with ADHD. The slow pacing beginning focused on world building and characters is awesome. That worked in Grandia and Lunar and it works here.
>Game performs and looks like ass.
Play docked or on a emulator.
>Gameplay takes way longer to get fun.
Better than never being fun in the first place. Like XC3 with its generic job system, garbage chain attack and seven party members at the same time making the combat too chaotic.
>A lot of the designs are ugly, busy shit.
Some blades, yes. But most characters have great design. If you disagree you are an ironic weeb. You can tell someone is a redditor if he thinks Rex's design is worse than the generic Noah.

Honestly, everything you said are just rationalizations of your hate for beautiful women. It's okay buddy, there are always Sony games for you. You can always dres- i mean you can always masturbate to Aloy over there.

>>713525309
it should see what actual gacha games do and pander to the gays too, but moderately

>>713525268
And they toned that down for XB3 like you wanted

>>713521217
> he literally saves the universe and gets an harem of 10/10s as a reward

The irony of posting that when the last few iterations of modern final fantasy are just low brow regressive trash trying to chase the westoid market as opposed to making them for the japanese market first and foremost.

>>713525365
>all opinions
K E E E K

All those incessant meltdowns and yet no one calls those type of people out like the crybaby chuds they are.
Seriously, all those appeals to moralty regarding character design remind me to when grifters cry when there's an LGBTQ person on screen, what happened to "let people enjoy things"?

>>713524970
I hate how Chad Rex was locked to 3.

>>713524629
>motherly figure leaning over MC after saving his life
mothers have tits, unlike transvestites, hence you can see hers. stop moralfagging, we all know you have none.

>>713514275 (OP)
at least xeno 4 will be better than this

Let's not be regressive to the point of thinking normalfags have opinions of worth or merit. Shitposting is all well and good, but anons have to draw a line somewhere.

>>713514275 (OP)
Yes, its coomer cuck faggot shit, but you knew that already

>>713525838
xeno 4 better be all male and the characters should be a bit feminine

In Xenoblade 3? Fucking where?! Is it literally just M?

>>713525871
unironically this, with the same ass shots and boob shots of 2

>>713525935
Rex not fucking Morag is probably the only negative I will accept for Xenoblade 2. Thats why its only a 9/10 instead of a 10

>>713525939
too bad because I am enjoying this thread a lot

>>713525560
1 has 3 separate releases. The first one got fucked over by GameStop.

It's strange /v/ hates XB2 for its coomshit and fan service when this board has 20 or so gacha threads with image dumps going daily

>>713525998
Same here. I’ve been shitting on 3 since the reveal, the game bombed, and is impossible to talk about on /v/ thanks to people like me sharing the same opinion. It’s enjoyable dunking on lefties, innit?

Nice bait but I ain't spoonfeeding you.

its amazing to compare the x treads with 2 treads, almost 2 different fanbases

>>713526164
this abomination is in no way attractive, she needs to look up fashion tutorials or SOMETHING

>>713526215
Concession accepted.

>>713525948
There were some good butts. And I recall liking a few of the characters' giant racks

>>713526029
It's because Xenoblade 1 drew in a TON of normalfags looking for a nice, safe RPG with minimal fanservice and "problematic" anime tropes. When 2 came out, the series basically did a 180 on that so it pissed them off hard. I like both types of anime though, so I won either way.

>>713526225
2 fans are like persona fans, they legit have not played the game. even if they have, they only did it for the coom aspects, and bounced off of the other xenoblade games cause there weren't enough titties being forced in their face instead of just being optional content

>>713526101
this
not even Pyra 4.0 in FR got much art

>>713526258
>There were some good butts.
No there wasn't.

>>713526283
>2 fans are like persona fans
Nope that's 3 fans. 3 even has a party made entirely of teenagers just like some shitty persona game.

>>713514275 (OP)
No, I hated the pseudo gacha system for unlocking blades that hid story and gameplay behind random chance and grinding.

>>713526225
Lefties won with X and got it censored. Then 2 came out and their impotent seethe got the characters into smash bros. Then 3 came out and their smug gloating had the game sell far less.
It makes sense why they’re angry.

>>713526330
Concession accepted retard.

>>713526353
all persona games are better than 2 tho

>>713514275 (OP)
No, people hated it because it was a big step down from the original in terms of story and also a step down from X in terms of gameplay.
The combat in 2 takes ages to open up and it bombards you with a million of unskippable, boring text-only tutorials.

Level design is a regression; they dropped the full open world from X in favor of segmented areas like in the first game, which was that way due to the Wii's limitations. There are more than 2 titans now, yet they all feel incredibly small compared to the Bionis or the Mechonis.
Field Skills are stupid and I can't believe that such a mechanic passed QA. Only reason these exist is to justify the gacha.

The gacha mechanics are annoying and could've been done away with.
The game already randomizes your save file at the beginning to artificially increase the likelihood of pulling different sets of Blades in the gacha. If you want to keep variety in playthroughs, just make it so you encounter different quests to unlock different Blades depending the random number generated by your save. Do away with common Blades entirely.

That's without getting into the battle harem story, the inconsistent and almost schizophrenic art style, terrible localization, cringe humor, etc.

It's just a weak and rushed entry in the series, but contrarians on /v/ will defend it only because it is the first Xenoblade they played and because it puts boobies front and center.

Faggot.

What's wrong with cooming?

I don't think the minority audience could play a persona game. They'd probably start crying and throwing a tantrum because fictional high school students are fucking and sucking each other.

>>713525935
Why would Rex fuck Morag. If anything, Morag is so constantly stressed out between worrying about her brother, her homeland falling apart in the literal sense, like 5 different terrorist groups trying to burn down her government, and the possible end of the world that I don't think Morag much cares about sex. And both she and Brighid more see Rex as a little brother to watch over than a sexual prospect.

>>713526386
the parrot is repeating itself
don't worry you grow out of /dbs/-speak after a couple of years

>>713526459

There's plenty of stuff in Xenoblade 2 for the gays like Florian, Zeke, Rex's slutty thigh windows, various hunk blades. It's only lefties who don't like it.

>>713526725
as anon's have pointed out. It's the eternal summer tourist retard group that thinks anime should begin and end with whatever dubbed garbage they watched on toonami 25 years ago.

>>713526468
Nothing. But in the same way there's nothing wrong with chocolate, you start running into problems if that's all you eat. The typical problem with coomer games is that there's nothing outside of that. The rest of the game is so minimal and poorly thought out that were it not for the goon bait, there would be nothing. Now I don't think that applies to Xenoblade 2. There's things I like about XC2 that has absolutely nothing to do with the tits and thighs. However I won't deny that it's very easy for people who do not engage with the game to focus exclusively on the tits and thighs. Be that for praise or criticism.

>>713514275 (OP)
XB 2 is the worst game in the series desu
The boobs were cool though

>>713526840

>>713526840
Well it's not so much vanilla taste as much as it wouldn't really make sense. Pyra loves Rex because Rex gave her hope when she didn't have any. Mythra loves Rex because Rex reminds her of Addam, the only man she ever loved. Nia loves Rex because he broke her out of her cynicism and made her comfortable enough to reveal her true self. Something Indol, and those who believe in them, would never have tolerated.

Morag just doesn't look at Rex in that way

By your logic Smash Melee and Brawl are gacha games too due to their unlock mechanics (like did you know the music drops were gacha too).

It makes me happy that XC3 is still controversial even years later. Fuck that game.

Wow Mythra is so mad about becoming a cuck lol

>>713527367
I didn't care for Mythra at first. I was extremely angry when Mythra admitted she invented Pyra to use as a human shield for all the emotions and horrors that she just didn't want to deal with, and Pyra just weakly protesting with

>... that's not fair

But as the game continued I softened up on her. Mythra is similar to Malos in the sense that she's a hammer living among nails. 500 years ago she had zero compunctions about using her orbital death ray on just randoms. She was about to atomize Brighid for being mildly annoying to her. But by the time she meets Rex, it's clear that she's so afraid that she won't use Siren unless she's entirely out of options. But because she was made for war, like Malos, she can't just admit weakness. So it translates into her being a tsundere bitch for half the game until she loses that too. She grows which a lot of JRPG characters don't really do.

>>713527391
The funny thing is you quoted Wimp Lo while being in his exact situation. We were all impressed with your face to foot style.

I think one of the most baffling things is that both Zeke and Pandoria accuse her of not looking or acting feminine. When she's very clearly a woman.

>>713527862
All of them are very mid. Especially compared to XC2 girls.

>>713527803

>>713528356

Some people, yeah.

For most it was a mix between the game’s strange gameplay choices and the “anime” stuff.

I really love the game and don’t really have any issues with the designs (beyond the clashing art styles from the guest artists), but I can understand people having problems with the gacha system, field skills, tutorials, and performance.

The first chunk of the game is a slog and made me drop it when I first played. The other 3 games are much more consistent, which is probably why they have better reputations.

2 probably has the most passionate fans though.

>>713514275 (OP)
It's like Stellar Blade.
Obviously a shit game to anyone with a brain, but you can't criticize it on /vpol/ without culture warriors getting angry.
Like SB, Xenoblade 2 is only propped up because it dabs on trannies, otherwise no one would care about it.

Mythra and Nia are good characters. The rest of the cast is trash. Pyra is the worst written piece of trash I've seen in a game.

I love weebshit too, XC2 just has the issue of being a bit unfocused in the beginning.

A lot of the game feels like they were unsure of how to communicate the game’s core (both in the narrative and gameplay sense) at the outset, resulting in the first four chapters feeling quite random. The gameplay is basically kneecapped for the first 15 hours.

Chapter 1 is a solid introduction, while 2 is a meandering lull in the action. 3 starts tapping into the emotional core of the game, while 4 turns that on its head and dips even further than 2. The game pretty quickly finds its narrative footing after that, but for someone without the patience to deal with it, it really can be confusing.

I don’t think I was really sold on the story until I made it to leftheria.

I agree. I really think that if 2 was given another year in the oven and some extra manpower, it would probably be hailed as one of the greatest JRPGs ever made.

It has so many amazing qualities that are unfortunately marred by poor gameplay and narrative choices that could have been avoided with more time.

Unfortunately, that’s the story of the Xeno series as a whole. Every game has been compromised in some way by production issues and time crunch. XC3 is the only one that seems to have been created smoothly (as far as we’re aware), so maybe things are on the up and up.

Pyra doesn't work because both her and Rex are fucking pathetic which makes it unbearable. If Rex was competent she would still suck but at least it wouldn't make people cringe when the two share a screen together. Mythra literally was forced into the story BECAUSE both Pyra and Rex sucked as and got Vandham killed in their incompetence.

One thing I was disappointed about in 3 was that we never got any type of lore reveal like Klaus in 2. They saved it all for the DLC for some reason

The Klaus reveal in 2 was lightning in a bottle. It was just straightforward enough to not be confusing to newcomers, while at the same time connects to 1 substantially in a way that can satisfy fans.

Given 3’s premise, it would have been difficult to work that sort of thing in without pulling an autism dump (as seen in Future Redeemed). 3 reveals enough information for the story to work for new fans, but definitely needed the DLC to make sense for those paying attention to the overarching narrative.

Why? It's apparent that Pyra fits with the theme of the game being to not give up. Pyra has given up. Even as the Aegis, she's given up hope. Rex doesn't know it but the only reason Pyra wants to go to Elysium is to beg her father for permission to die. Malos would jerk off to the idea if he knew because she validates his worldview. Alrest is dying and she contributed to that. She's scorched whole Titans and the hundreds, possibly thousands, of people on them off the face of the Earth. Her body count would make the biggest warlords blush. And what was it even for? Nothing changed. After 500 years, humans are just as bloodthirsty as they were before. The Architect restarted all of life and it changed nothing. All of the powers that be have no choice but to admit that people are just like this and that it's better to just let the end happen. Addam's dream and the Architect's dream will never come true.

Xenoblade 2 is full of anime bullshit but the kicker with Pyra is that she rarely joins in of her own volition. Because from where she stands, she doesn't deserve to be happy. Why would a murderer like her deserve anything positive in life? But that's not what Pyra is. She's not a weapon that exists to atomize shit, she's allowed to be happy and actually enjoy things that the world has to offer. And when she does and Rex asks her if she loves this world, she's able to agree. Which then allows her to return to her truest form. Anyone who fucked up in life can find value in Pyra's story, why is that a bad thing?

On paper, Rex isn’t all that interesting, especially when you remove him from the context of his world. However, as a foil to the others, I think he’s very effective.

Their incompetence literally makes everything worse. Who got kidnapped? Pyra. Who lost to Obrona despite being an Aegis? Pyra. Also jobbed to Vandham. Pyra doesn't do anything of value other than looking cute for the coomers and saying garbage like Blushy Crushy.
>Pyra wants to go to Elysium is to beg her father for permission to die.
She should ahve gone through with it desu because the game becomes 10 times better without her and Rex on it. See Torna.
>She's scorched whole Titans and the hundreds, possibly thousands, of people on them off the face of the Earth.
That was Mythra. Her reaction and cope to it was kinda stupid but hey it's her power she can do whatever she wants with it even if it makes no sense. She literally saved the world even if it was at the cost of a few millions.

Obrona had the ability to shut off Ether. Are you going to admit to being a dishonest shitposter or are you going to give Mythra shit for being depowered by Haze who has a similar ability. Also good shit for ignoring that it was actually Rex who fucked up during that fight with Akhos. Him drawing on too much of Pyra's power in addition to his own wounds is what made them lose, both Pyra and Vandham actually advised Rex against what he did and Mythra had to bail them out. Also, yet again, your dishonesty is showing because during that fight where Pyra was captured, Jin was just better. Mythra tried to use all of her power to stop Jin and nothing worked. Siren didn't work. Foresight didn't work. So Pyra had to bail Rex out. That's not Pyra's fault and yet again reinforces how it's Pyra who ends up having to carry the emotional load for Rex and Mythra until Rex becomes strong enough to do it himself.

We literally shat on it since the reveal.
Because of the censorship and dindus. You lost.

XBC2 may or may not suck
However XBC3 fundamentally sucks

>>713532118
kek I know right. What a loser

>>713530276
You can start with any game, even 3 if you want. They are all loosely connected, but stand-alone for the most part, like how FF games have recurring enemies, creatures, themes, etc. but are all separate stories.
But then again, release order is always the best way to approach these kind of series.

>>713532106
This is pretty much the only thing 2's fanbase can say in its "defence".
>>713532156
Yeah you'd love for me to be dead so no one destroys your retarded "arguments" huh?
Also 2 will always be shittier than 2.
Still waiting for that proof btw.

>>713532232
>Also 2 will always be shittier than 2.

>>713532473
You have imaginary friends now?

>>713532538

2 was a fantastic softcore ecchi game
but a terrible xeno game

>>713532517
>you have to be present to be redeemed
As expected from a brainlet.

>>713532538
I dont have friends.

>>713532398
3’s failure mindbroke the smug era faggots hard.

>>713532615

Blind retard.

>>713532910
didn't stutter princess

>>713532813
Attractive women remind them that they will never be one. Why do you think they bat so hard for 3? They got the series censored and as a result the game sold less.

Been nearly 10 years and you fucks still can't move on from same old stale shitposting.

>>713532963
Still a blind retard.

>>713531928

Why do people ignore how terrible the forced Community sidequests are in this game?

Eunie forcing anal creampies from Taion

>>713533480
I agree
>Posts NTR adjacent shit
fuck you

>>713533371
No it isn't. XC3 is about "stagnation bad" and "muh endless now"
E33 is mostly about people dealing with grief and loss.

>>713533480
