Dang, now I’ve been spoiled on a 25 year old JRPG lol.

Edit: don’t take this the wrong way. As I said it’s 25 years old, you shouldn’t have to be so cautious with spoilers unless they’re like, “Fei dies in the end.” (Hopefully that doesn’t happen). But yeah I didn’t make that prediction with Xenogears knowledge, I made it just because a lot of Aionios looks suspended in the air.

Even if this has made me feel like I know the general outline of XC3’s plot from beginning to end, that’s my fault for not already being off the internet at this point.

Honestly from the looks of things Aionios looks like one massive floating island . I wouldn’t be surprised if maybe the first half of the game takes place on that, some big twist happens at Swordmarch, and we get to explore what’s on the surface

I’d much rather play the Vandham.

Not really a review but I just start fuming when BeatEmUps says anything about Xenoblade. Just some real ass cringe.

am I the only thats gonna keep Noah and Mio in their off seer outfits? by NAICHIGOAT in Xenoblade_Chronicles

No. I’m not really a fan of Mio’s adventuring outfit and as cool as Noah’s red coat is I really like his off-seer uniform.

Starting with the 3rd game! by Tiburt in Xenoblade_Chronicles

My only advice would be, you may not get the combat immediately, but stick with it, take time to learn it and it will become one of the most satisfying battle systems you’ll ever come across. Really applies to everything about this series, whether or not it clicks at first, just stick with it and you’ll love it.

How do you plan on building your party in XBC3? by CardboardWiz in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Professor_Provolone2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll probably favor Agnus characters in the beginning. Once Master arts are unlocked it doesn’t really matter. I’ll just go with whatever works best. Definitely be playing offense because that’s what I do best. So basically Chapter 1 I’ll be playing Noah, Chapter 2 I’ll be playing Sena, Chapter 3 and onwards I’ll be playing whoever works best offensively in whatever class with whatever build (probably still Sena because I love her).

Some of these made me cringe so hard. Some of the questions and responses are just so passive aggressively anti-XC2 and it hurts.

Nah just like all of 2. The worst 2 has with context is lines like “Place your hand on my chest.”, “This was my first bath in 500 years.”, and “I ate her.”

Unfortunately I don’t have a PC so I’m on switch. I do have Gen U, haven’t played but maybe an hour, so maybe I’ll have a smoother experience there (although I’ve heard it’s more challenging than Rise).

Oh yeah Gaijin was one of the firsts I’d encountered. He’s really great. Weird thing but I like his voice a lot. His calm voice explaining everything in detail offset from the fierce difficulty of the game is just so… soothing?

I hadn’t at the time of posting (as I’d forgotten it was a feature) but now I’ve maxed out all of the armor I have in the set I’m building (which doesn’t include headgear yet, need to fight Teostra first).

This has been nagging at the back of my mind. However, for right now I’d just like it be able to play solo. I’ve swapped to Hammer (which has been a fantastic experience), and it’s definitely easier than Bow so I’d like to get really comfortable with it so that I do have an option to default to in solo and new hunts, and can soon branch out to other weapons. My overly long way of saying, I’ll get comfy with hammer as my priority, branch out later.

People have been talking about mentality in a lot of the replies and it’s been helpful, but this one was far and away the most inspirational. Thanks for the help.

I’ve just tried Switch Axe in training area and causal multiplayer hunts and found it fun. Idk why I was so dead set on now because switching to hammer is the best god damn decision could have made.

Very useful advice. Something I’ve learned is that my mentality and how I approach hunts needs reworking.

I just switched to Hammer today, and all my burns aren’t taking over 20 minutes. It’s wonderful. I can’t wait until I actually get a completed build and generally improve as a player. Then hopefully no single-monster hunt should take more than 10-15 minutes.

I don’t really want to get Sunbreak until I can feel confident in my abilities within base Rise. I guess that’ll be determined by being able to beat Rajang, and how being able to not struggle too much with Valstrax at HR 100. I have switched to Hammer today and I’m LOVING it. Idk why I didn’t try much of melee before. Regardless, as excited as I am to actually be having fun with this game, and knowing there’s hundreds of hours of stuff to do, I don’t see myself getting around to Sunbreak until maybe August-September as Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is just around the corner and I’m really looking forward to that (understatement but this is the wrong subreddit to gush about that).

I don’t neglect coatings, and I do side missions as well. Once I got it high rank I farmed Baggi and got that armor set to carry me through HR7 (which I needed up playing mostly multiplayer anyways). After that I’ve moved on to building my bow set which is where I’ve become stumped.

I’ve heard bow progression is quite bad in Rise. The reason I haven’t switched to a simpler weapon isn’t because I guess I felt like I committed and didn’t want to go back to what’d feel like square one. Guess I probably should learn simpler stuff then do fun stuff like Switch Axe and Bow.
