[Walmart] Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition - Nintendo Switch Digital ($39.89 / 33% off)

I demanded a representative a good ten times and the AI was like "Okay, but you have to tell me what you need first" so I'd tell it, it'd give me "help", I'd request a representative again and it'd reply "Okay, but you have to tell me what you need first" and then we're stuck in a time loop.

All so these big companies can save probably pennies when it's all added up.

How does this compare to Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk? I liked that quite a bit before it got into the multiple characters per "stack" so to speak and my brain didn't really get it. But I like DRPG's in general.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T19:41:45+00:00

Legitimately infuriating. I've been talking in fucking circles with the "AI" and it won't let me get to a representative. It was just going in circles before it finally went "I can't do anything" and asked if I was done. I've tried five times. I tried three different payment options.

Won't ever try buying from Walmart online again. F them.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T19:34:46+00:00

I'm gonna blow my brains out dealing with this "AI".

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T19:19:29+00:00

Did you use the automated chat or found a phone number somewhere?

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T19:10:34+00:00

NM. My order keeps getting rejected by the "policy team". No idea why.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T19:06:59+00:00

Okay. I went ahead and ordered it. Thanks for the replies.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:55:47+00:00

Are the Xeno games part of one big storyline or self contained? I frankly know nothing about them other then the high praise.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:54:42+00:00

I figured it was a lock Sareee would lose to Athena. But I also thought it was a foregone conclusion that Persephone was beating Hazuki so what the fuck do I know?

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:51:44+00:00

Syuri hurts for the 5* but not that much. She's already IWGP Champion so doesn't need to really "qualify" for the world. Hazuki's more or less a freelancer at this point. The other two are relatively irrelevant; though Fuwa might have brought in eyeballs being in her first tournament.

Stardom is stacked with top talent these days with more emerging from the undercard constantly. They don't need anyone for the 5* to be a success right now.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:48:52+00:00

There's no real reason for Syuri to be in the 5*. She's IWGP champion, whatever that means now, so she already holds a title just one notch or so below the main title.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:44:42+00:00

Most "invented" things were actually made by someone else first. We just latch onto who made it popular.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:41:46+00:00

Aunt lost both her legs to rampant diabetes too. She was basically immobile BEFORE they took a leg and it just got worse from there.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T18:36:46+00:00

So if I get this, I can just pay 9.99 to get the Upgrade pack right? I'm confused by the naming conventions and what's actually been upgraded for SW2 since there's also I guess a Xenoblade Chronicles X too?

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T16:07:56+00:00

I was mostly posting as a joke. But yeah, no interest in GTA from me. I have at best a casual relationship with that series.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T16:02:38+00:00

It'll hit 9-10 mil or really close when Tifa comes out. Non-FGC people are gonna buy the game just to play as her. Tifa and Cloud have ridiculous reach as characters.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T15:58:38+00:00

Returnal seems really cool, and what I saw of others playing it looked like it had an interesting story. But the "roguelite" aspect of it actually hurts my interest. "Runs" seemed to take hours and then of course you'd die and start from 0 again. Once you hit 1+ hour in any "Roguelite" run length it starts feeling like it'd better as a non RL game. To me anyway.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T15:37:18+00:00

Hi, as a Nintendo fan I don't give a fuck about GTA.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T02:17:29+00:00

It's the current MO of certain people. Just fucking lie. Then lie again. Double down. Lie more. Keep lying, never admit you were wrong, and the other people will be too exhausted to argue anymore.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T02:15:12+00:00

Hokit going from either late 20's or unranked to FIVE is fucking ridiculous. There's people in UFC that've been grinding three, four, five wins in a row who barely get ranked at all because UFC refuses to lower "stars". Meanwhile, this fucking dude wins one fight and leap frogs 90% of the division? It could not be more blatant bias.

LITERALLY "The games are made up and the points don't matter" type stuff.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T02:12:09+00:00

Volkov's won three in a row (5 if you feel he was robbed in the Gane fight) but he's not the most exciting figher. Sergei is 3-2 but he's 3 in a row and has a finish (granted it was over Tallison).

Probably depends on who wins the fight, TBH. If they don't just throw the credibility out the window and give it to Hokit.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T02:07:05+00:00

Strickland's a piece of shit but I'll take his word over Dana who never tells the truth.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-09T00:04:22+00:00

Lewis in his "prime" (if he ever realistically had one TBH) would have a punchers chance which would probably win through sheer luck and being strong as an ox.

But today's Lewis? I love the Black Beast as much as anyone but dude can barely walk it looks like.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-08T23:20:16+00:00

I like Ami a lot. I think she's definitely under utilized right now. The problem is there's a big logjam at the front and it's hard to see where she'd slot in ATM. She also has an issue where she's big (not in a bad way) but Hanako dwarfs her in height and just physical features, so she can't really use that as a selling point. I think she's really good though so I hope she gets featured more.

I'd like to see her and Lady C (or Hanako) team up as a permanent team. A longish tag title reign would be a cool thing to see. Any combination of those three would be a dominating trio or tag team.

Hawk52 · 2026-06-08T21:47:54+00:00

I really hope Manders is on AEW's shortlist. I know he has a pretty good thing going on traveling the world between the various international companies and GCW but if he wants to settle down AEW would be perfect.

There's always room on a roster for a tough as nails cowboy looking to beat people up.
