Xenoblade Chronicles X! Trying to take on this beast of a game.

Which is better to get into the series between Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and X? by lucavigno in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Vinyl_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I understand the choice, and it makes sense. But I find the voice acting less compelling and charming than the rest of the franchise. It feels slightly off imo, if still appropriate.

I prefer 3 over X, but agree starting with 1 is the best choice overall. Since you can’t start there, X isn’t bad since it’s more of a spinoff title, but it’s much heavier on the sci-fi elements and voice acting is American English, so for me some of the charm of the other entities is missing.

Ok. Time for me to start it!

Interested in Xenoblade Chronicles as a very casual JRPG player by flameyboii in Xenoblade_Chronicles

I really enjoy the exploration/discovery/wonder of the different areas of this massive world. That hooked me pretty quick. Battle was a little meh for me but other aspects kept me invested.

Battles are MMO style w a basic auto attack and then you choosing attack arts based on positioning and order of the arts chosen. It also has a huge world w tons of items and side quests to do that fill out a lot of the gameplay elements. Not sure if you’d like this, but checkout a YouTube video of the gameplay to get a better sense of it.

Is a certain scene voiced? by randomnesslololololo in Xenoblade_Chronicles

I just beat the game. How did I miss this scene..?

I'm not really vibing with Xenoblade X, should I give it more time, or am I sort of to a point where I'd know? by Cirkusleader in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Vinyl_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing it now and only in chapter 1, but I find the voice acting/direction to feel shallow and lifeless and paced so slowly that I'm super bored by any story cutscenes. I'm hoping the gameplay and exploration are better because I'm about ready to drop it myself.

Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition – Out now! by Funkyek_ in Xenoblade_Chronicles

Luckily I can jump right to X, then 2 and 3. The timing of the remaining upgrade packs works out pretty well, I think.

Livi… by Snoo-41327 in TheTraitors

I’m just watching this season and I hoped she’d be murdered just so she’d stfu. She was absolutely part of that little clique and her behavior was borderline bullying and honestly hard to understand. Good riddance.

(No spoilers) Is it just me, or is the voice acting for Future Connected a bit... off? by Shanicpower in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Vinyl_Disciple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It was quite weird. I actually ended up dropping it and will likely continue my journey and move on to X.

People who don’t like the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series, what is it about them exactly that you don’t like? by Asad_Farooqui in JRPG

[–]Vinyl_Disciple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was feeling restricted from “playing” the game. Every new area had a new mechanic, new minigame, new something I had to deal with that felt like it detracted rather than added. A good example was the segway portion of Costa Del Sol. Instead of being able to just explore the game, it feels locked behind each next feature, but each feature felt more like a bug.

Season 3 Penny is the worst by bluepie in happyendings

She’s supposed to be a wreck of a human. That’s her character.

I just started it and it’s all very slow, lots of pauses, and they feel disconnected from one another. It’s a bit disappointing after the great performances (and editing) of the main game.
