when does it get good?

the first second

When you go play the first (only good XB) game

>>722987186 (OP)
When you go on the sunken ship and during the next chapter. Then it gets dull again until chapter 4 when you unlock all blade slots and figure out how to cancel blade arts into each other, so you're constantly using skills

>>722987186 (OP)
Start screen

>>722987186 (OP)
like 15 hours in, unironically
xc2 is a good game, but it does take forever to get really going, both gameplay wise and also story

>>722987186 (OP)
As soon as you meet Homura

>>722988915
who?

>>722988915
>Homura

>>722987186 (OP)
Gameplay-wise - never
Story-wise - right after Nia joins your party

>>722987186 (OP)
Chapter 5 onward is peak fiction

>>722992026
It has the best gameplay in the whole trilogy though

>>722988915
I'm a HANNA enjoyer myself

>>722987186 (OP)
Once you get to Mor Ardain.

>>722987783
Should I rush to chapter 4? I want to enjoy the combat but I'm finding only using 2 blades pretty restrictive

>>722987186 (OP)
40 hours in

>>722993901
Id personally stick to the main story until i unlock all blade slots and absolutely rush for the cancel arts skill. Then id start doing side stuff and exploring

>>722993648
Meh auto-battle
It would've been better with something like Rogue Galaxy's combat

>>722987186 (OP)
When you pull Dahlia.

>>722994126
It stops being an autobattle halfway through. You're constantly chaining skills and making those orbs for big dick chain attack nukes
personally i hope they ditch this whole pseudo mmo combat completely with the next xeno game

>>722987186 (OP)

when the Japanese ''''''''''''humor'''''''''''' happens

its too easy

When you start attack canceling. Forgot the proper name term.

Samefagging schizo.

>>722994270
Nah, chaining skills is basically just quick time events
Plus I hate how enemies just stick to you like magnets and sometimes damage you from the distance just by swinging a sword
Proper real time battle with hit boxes and pause menu for using skills would definitely be better

Retard.

>>722987186 (OP)
after Uraya, about 30 hours in. Unironically.
I almost quit in Uraya because I was so bored, actually put the game on hiatus for a month, but now it's my favorite JRPG and perhaps even game in general.

Play with Japanese voices.

>>722994953
OK schizo

>>722987186 (OP)
Good?

>>722996025
>Play with Japanese voices.
Don't ever do this for Xenoblade games. The localization makes them so much better.

I prefer Hikari

Rex sounds goofy

>>722987186 (OP)
it doesnt. genuinely one of the worst games ever made. youd be better off playing any other one. if you like the world of xc2 for some reason, play torna.

>>722996868
>Hikari

>>722997223
>genuinely one of the worst games ever made.
You seem to be mistaken. This thread isn't about Xenoblade 3.

i'm british and the acting is shit

>>722997124
>OP won't show a (You)
Where does it, in the screenshot?

>>722997564
Replies to OPs don't show a (You) even if you're the OP. Stupid newfag.

When does it get good?

>>722997296
both are pretty bad but i prefer boring as rocks xc3 with somewhat interesting gameplay to the game series & story equivalent of the oklahoma city bombing.

>>722997809
>>722997363

>>722997952
>with somewhat interesting gameplay
No. Ouroboros are a shit gimmick.

>>722997953
Concession status: accepted.

>>722998020
didnt say it wasnt lmao. xeno is the most astroturfed series ive been convinced to give a try

>>722998041
Sorry kiddo you lost, stop squirming. You cannot answer the question, because you are wrong, BTFO, utterly DECIMATED, brit millah'd, etc

>>722998221
Whatever helps you cope retard.

>>722987186 (OP)
never, the plot of this is absolutely pants on retarded and nobody can convince me otherwise

>>722999804
Retard.

>>722996868
Hikari is quite nice

>>723000587
I feel like the sword of god shouldn't dress this way

>>722987186 (OP)
It doesn't.
>Chapter 7 is an epic shounen adven-
It doesn't. Ever. It's complete dogshit for people pretending to like classic Japanese adventures.

>>722987186 (OP)
Right from hearing the first few notes on the title screen. Simple as.

>>723000754
But enough about XC3.

When you remove the 2 from the title.

I can't believe XBC1 is as good as it is. It was a fluke.

For me however, it has to be Morag.

>>722987186 (OP)
After Vandham's part, it just keeps getting better after that. Love xeno 2.

>>722994206
This design is so fucking bad

>>722994414
This is worse than gore

>>722987186 (OP)
To be fair, it takes a while for the gameplay to unlock its full potentital. If you get to that point and you still think it is bad, you will be officially filtered then

>>723002416
The standard NPC take

After you're able to start battle with all 3 skills available.

Not OP but I'm playing it too for the first time. I'm on chapter 6 and so far the story has been a solid 6/10. Some parts I can't even tell if its trying to be serious or satire. Story really is all over the place. The gameplay got a bit better and also bit retarded when you realize half the side content is locked behind RNG gacha pulls with extremely low rates.
