What the fuck is all this shit on the screen? Is all this necessary just to make a system where auto attacks lead to specials that can combo into eachother? The combat system is not deep enough for all this fucking clutter.

name one unnecessary part of that UI

Crap didn't notice the thread before I made mine

Why? It makes the system more engaging to play by comboing and more shit to keep track of. Plus, you can turn the clutter off, this is for newbs

And all the terrorism in the world is caused by people playing shooters. I mean, can't you just see all that violence in the world and not see the connection?

All of it seems pretty crucial to me.

This is /oursword/

Guy from the last thread who didn't like XC or XCX for the combat

Fuck it, I'm gonna buy XC2 anyways and just put up with it. If I can put up with Chrono Trigger despite hating turn based combat, I can put up with XC2's combat just because the whole game looks fun.

You really don't have to post every single retarded reply of your internet fight on gaf 2.0 here.

>not posting this too

Minimize this as much as possible, talk about the game itself yeah?

Gormott day

Are you the one personally responding. Looks fun desu

do I really need names of all the combos being displayed at once? The UI also seems too big

Everything on that screen is required unless you can guess when someone is ready for their blade special or how many seconds each DOT lasts. The only thing I'd like the option to remove would be the tooltips for the arts and blades.

ew. somehow they made it even worse than xcx.

you should make a laugh at resetera thread for your dump user

Sonyfag hypocrisy

Good for you user. These games have a really high knowledge ceiling of the combat so push comes to shove you can probably look up how to break the game and breeze through.

Torigoth day

Thanks for helping support Takahashi and Monolith Soft!

Sorry, I'll stop now

No

You don't, you can remove that shit. UI needs to be big because XCX was a clusterfuck on the gamepad

they're not combo names, they're the effect of Blade combo paths

also text being too big is a complete non-issue especially compared to XCX and you can disable some UI elements (Blade names and Art effects at least) if you want to

What we know of the story so far

Basically Pyra killed a bunch of titans in some shit war or something and people are hunting her so she doesn't spark off another war

Am I right in this?

to be honest I love that kind of shit in games so who knows?

I look at high level, near end game play of XCX and I'm like "yo nigga that's sick, he's constantly in overdrive" and then I play the game in CEMU and I'm like "okay, uh, when does this get fun?"

I still stand by it that having more live combat akin to PSO2 or PSNova would suit these games a lot better personally.

that fucker seriously. You almost don't catch it in real time.

Do some people really think this is gonna get a 100?

who else is replaying xenoblade right now

Let's see, from left to right, top to bottom:
>Party gauge
>Enemy status
>List of available elemental Blade combos and potential effects
>Party status
>Enemy attacks
>Currently available party specials
>Currently equipped Blades
>Arts pallet and current Special meter level
All of that seems pretty vital, yes.

Nah, it's having fun

I love how the other guy is like "Slowed down or not, those boobs are bad" as if there was an animator doing it

I'm replaying Xenoblade X

Hardly, but we're at least more optimistic about it breaking 90, maybe even surpassing XB1's 92 after all the glowing previews.

I NEED THIS GAME BUT WHY THE FUCK DOES IT HAVE TO BE ON THE SWITCH IT SUCKS TO BE POOR FUCK

Could also be specifically Mythra's fault. She seems to be built up to be really special with no other blade so far being light elemental

Do some people really thing there's people that think this is gonna get a 100?

sell your old games, you probably have $360 lying around like I did

He also has a 2B avatar.
>sexualization is bad but only if nintendo does it

Some people are hunting her down so she doesn't start a war, others are hunting her down TO start a war. Basically you have people that want to seal her powers and others that want her powers for themselves.

I beat the original one years ago, but i haven't beat the 3ds one (before you ask, the wii one was pirated so it cost nothing).

>all steam games

Send help!

What are Seals?

It's a Nintendo owned game. What else would they put it on?

I don't think the game is using an actual physics engine to handle animations like that, it's most likely hand crafted by an animator

not that it matters either way, you can barely see that shit

sell your body

But mythra IS pyra

You mean they EXAGGERATED motions so they were visible in a high speed action scene?
DISGUSTING.

The previews aren't glowing. Most of them say the story is horrendous so far.

and now you know why you should always buy physical

If you complete a Blade combo you can seal some thing away, so if you seal Blowdown for example, the enemy won't be able to inflict blowdown

user you can't bullshit because the previews are in the goddamn OP, step up your shitposting game

>You can even choose to turn off skill descriptions to clean up the HUD a bit.

You can take all the text away when you get familiar tho

...

...

You still trying here blunderfag?

Link literally one preview saying that

I got 20gb space left on my Switch. I see that game itself would fit easily there since its just 13gb, but what about voice DLC and that other DLC stuff? Is there any info how much space jap voices will take?
I don't want to buy SD card just for this and I will miss the game day one, if I get it physical

I got 7 levels above my current area (Central Factory) because I was doing Colony 6 shit and now I'm burnt out

>story is horrendous so far.
Source? All the previews I've seen so far says it's excellent and much better than xcx.

They only say that is "slow at the start" which sugetive as fuck.

Blunderfag is getting really desperate. Honestly seeing him ramp up the insanity for the next few weeks is going to be entertaining as hell.

Gormott lower level
youtu.be/-lRWvg3KeBs

i am
i forgot how great it was

are you ready to be 4/4 on being wrong so far, pokebarneyfag

you can't drive to Gamestop or Best Buy day 1?

It's basically using the a ragdoll-like physics engine for soft material. The animator can tweak it by hand, but if he doesn't, then they will move like the physics engine dictates. Since that is a rapidly moving scene, the boobs fly all over the place, but all happens so quickly that you can't see it

You know that loading times on the cartridge are worse than on the SD card?

When pyra becomes better girl does she retain her memories and personality? From the footage it appears to be so. So what's the difference between them? Power only?

20GB should be plenty

get an sd card. you bought a handheld gaming platform in 2017, you need storage.
you probably don't have enough space for the game itself, because it needs to download the install data, then extract it.

>yfw blunderfag has ramped up his shitposting due to all the positive previews

he must be having a heart attack

I've seen the comparisons. They are extremely negligible.

Take your adhd medicine user.

personality, myrthra seems to be more confident while pyra is more shy. in other words, pyra would want to cuddle while myrthra will fucking fedom you.

The Art descriptions and the Blade Names
Good thing you can turn them off

If a game is 13GB, you probably need 23GB just to be able to store the compressed data and the extracted game files at the same time.

Mythra seems to have a different personality. She's more confident and assertive. Maybe even a little bitchy.

Really? They seem to be the same

Are you retarded? Look at the text labels.

HOL UP so are pyra and mythra 2 different blades or something??

I hope Mythra is more sexual

I am avoiding xenoblade games and RPGs until XC2. I did the same with BotW and Mario Odyssey, it makes the experience much better.

Honestly the story looks like a big blunder so far. One outlet even said the story never picks up, X style. It's not gonna even break 70s metacritic is it bros?

Well, in any case i glad they are literally the same person, Sup Forums was literally cockblocked from best girl debates, shipping wars and NTR shitposting.

That makes sense because the only way I think anyone could enjoy Zelda is if they never played an open world adventure game before.

Two blades from the same core crystal. You can switch them like the other blades from the same slot. Rex gets 12 normal arts basically.

@396946452
Stop trying so hard my man, absolutely no one is buying your shit

POST MOR ARDAIN ALREADY! I NEED THOSE TRUMPETS.

>Remove party gauge
wtf, how am I supposed to know if I can revive an ally or perform a chain attack?

>Remove Lvl/HP
wtf, why did I die?

>Remove enemy HP
wtf, when is this dude dying?

>Remove Seal menu
wtf, what moves am I supposed to make to pinpoint which ability I want to seal?

>Remove arts
WHAT THE FUCK

>Remove friendly special attacks
WHY

Only thing you should disable is the art descriptions, but even then you should have them on for a while until you remember them well

Wut, I enjoyed zelda plenty and I played almost every notable action adventure. You don't happen to have autism do you?

@396946452
>source: my ass
no (You)s this time

I wonder what would happen when you call Mythra FAT.

and this is why brainlets don't do UI design

Has someone been cataloging his decent thus far? Every thread he gets more and more desperate, it would probably make for a good collage at the end.

Blunderfag pls
