because the guys who designed her thought with their dicks

Im glad they did

Because they knew the story was terrible and it needed the sexualization for people to defend it.

monolith not nintendo.

>The game would sell 2 million copies regardless of moe pandering
Who knows if that's the case? I do agree that we can't say the increase in fanservice is what made sales spike compared to previous instalments the way it did with Fire Emblem Awakening because while Fire Emblem had already been on some very successful systems in the past with theorethically good release dates, the previous two Xenoblade games came out on dead consoles (one which was dead by the time the game came out and one which was always dead). In fact, I'd be very interested in seeing how another Xenoblade game with a different tone (for instance, closer to X's) would do on the Switch, provided it doesn't come out too late in its life cycle and while it's still selling gangbusters.

i'm still mad they ruined so many good designs with giant boobs and butts

i'd be shilling this game if the boobs and butts actually made sense

Gay

Didn't they hire a hentai artist?

user I think you might be homosexual.

Yes actually, multiple.

whoaaahoho put down the soy

>the story was terrible

But that's wrong.

It has just as if not an even more wild ride than the first Xenoblade.

>Fire Emblem Awakening
that game had a whole new level of sexualization
It was literally pandering to low IQ people. Alison Rapp shilled this game for weeks and received lots of gifts from fans after posting semi naked pics playing that game

Actually, you could attribute the first game's sales (at least in NA) to NoA's unwillingness to promote or localize it and to that end only allowing Gamestop to be the vendor of the game.

Even then it sold amazingly enough to gather support for both a sequel, a port and a character representation in Smash.

Project Rainfall will definitely go down in vidya gaems history as a defining moment of fans pleading with a corporation to localize niche games and successfully coming out to support the petition.

>Nu/v/ thinks sexy characters is "pandering".

Fuck off and leave.

If it went the X route it would had sold even more because of the graphics

I wouldn't buy it if it didn't have cute girls

Well, are we assuming they would've managed to make the faces look less divisive this time? Because that's what I'm expecting if they make a Xenoblade X2 on Switch next.

>i'd be shilling this game if the boobs and butts actually made sense
Women have boobs and butts. Women like to show off their boobs and butts. Fantasy women don't usually need a lot of armor to keep themselves protected, especially when they have super powers.
Does casual sexiness disgust you that much, user?

Not really, but they did do a better job with character development. The only one who got all the attention was Shulk in the first one so he was gonna be hard to top anyway, but I feel the cast in this game is definitely stronger than the 1st game's.

Now if only they didn't shit the bed with Rex and Pyra.

fan service is pandering

>Project Rainfall will definitely go down in vidya gaems history as a defining moment of fans pleading with a corporation to localize niche games and successfully coming out to support the petition.
Don't remind me of that. I still get mad at Reggie because he said ''oh we will release if it's profitable we don't care about our fans'' and then after controversy made Gamestop exclusive deal and the prices jumped to 80 dollars for a single copie

The antagonists may have been thrown together lazily (a majority of Torna) but some of them are standouts like Jin, Amalthus and Malos for sure.

Also, personally I believe the explanation for Kalus pressing the reset button was much better explained in XB2 where we hardly knew what was going on in XB1.

>anime modeled after american porn actress
>sexy
Leave

I remember people specifically not buying X because of the faces

Meanwhile I was in Europe getting all three games from Nintendo itself with nice advertisement, plus other games they published throughout 2011/2012 like Last Window, Project Zero 2 Wii Edition and Solatorobo, the latter of which wasn't even a first-party or Nintendo-funded game.

Awakening sold well because of the massive marketing, much more then any previous FE ever. Like compare Radiant Dawns marketing and release date to Awakening.

HUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I agree, Rex and Pyra were pretty bland, it's only until after we meet Mythra that we get to see something substantial and then chapter 7 onwards.

I also agree with this, I can't even remember the name of that girl that was with them and I'm pretty sure I'll forget about Michail soon from now as well. Whatever happened to their blades anyway?

>Radiant dawn
Didnt that release like a week after SMG lol

>Whatever happened to their blades anyway?
Malos' and Akhos' got sent back to their cores at the end of chapter 3 while Mikhail's and Patroka's at the end of chapter 4 and they just never came up again.

Because it works fucker. Xenoblade 2 sold 1 million in the first month. Xenoblade 1 sold 900k on the Wii and Xenoblade X sold 840k on the Wii U. So that means XB2 outsold both of its predecessors in ONE MONTH.

Fuck I couldn't even remember that shit happening, guess it just shows my point.

Yeah. Nintendo and IS almost FE themselves.

>I couldnt remeber that happening
You dont remember OBROOONNNAAA

kill*

Next time they better get their full team on it. I dont know about XCXs development but XC2 had only a fraction of their team working on it. Probably why things like the sidequests and UI feel rushed, and each titan feels smaller than even noctilum in XCX despite being much more vertical.

I remember the fightS at the end of the chapters but I don't remember their blades going back into the cores.

This is the type of person that the Xeno series panders to now.

>Project Rainfall will definitely go down in vidya gaems history as a defining moment of fans pleading with a corporation to localize niche games and successfully coming out to support the petition.
Literally NONE of the three games involved in that campaign were published in North America because of anyone's awareness of it. Nintendo had already poured tons of money into Xenoblade's English localization in Europe and sort of used that launch as an experiment to gauge that title's market appeal. It was kind of an unexpected hit. Also, let's be honest; nobody gave a fuck about Last Story and Pandora's Tower. They were so irrelevant that a niche publisher like XSeed had to step in and bring them to North America.

>compile heart tier sexualization

hi Eric

Well for Patroka and Akhos they comment on it

For Malos when it happens, he doesnt really care and chooses to retreat, the animation is there though

>Women like to show off their boobs and butts
yup, that's how every wamen works user

>casual sexiness
except it's not casual at all when every character does it

you can make sexy without fetish proportions
you can make sexy with fantasy armor that actually makes sense
this is trash animu pandering

Not him, but in some respects, fanservice in Japanese games can kinda kill some of the immersion if it is given no real justification within the context of the world.

I don't hold fanservice against Xenoblade or nothing, and for the most part the story strayed away from too many of the typical anime fanservice tropes. And there's even a part where Gramps mentions the irony of Mythra calling Rex a pervert when she's the one showing quite a bit of a skin. But my feeling sometimes is that the Japs don't always add x or y type of fanservice cause they sincerely want to or cause the average consumer actually cares one way or the other very much but more out of habit.

They finally learned you didn't need to actually try, because weeaboos will buy anything with cute girls in it.
Shame about the producer though, he was clearly a westaboo who didn't want his series to turn into vita level trash.

Pretty sure Last Story's success led to XSEED jumping on board for Pandora's Tower.

>Thanks to the great fan support and success of The Last Story, when the opportunity presented itself to publish Pandora’s Tower, it was an easy decision

venturebeat.com/2013/01/16/xseed-completes-operation-rainfall-trilogy-with-pandoras-tower-this-spring/

literally fap material pandering
also not nintendo
shit-lith

They always did including Gears.

But what if I don't actually want to fap the female characters? Am I playing the game wrong?

nice 360p you got there
fucking trash monolith

Nobody bought Gears for the cute girls

I don't think anyone except a couple losers on this site really bought Xenoblade Chronicles 2 just for the cute girls either.

The problem was, XC2 was specifically targeting said losers.

"Success" for XSeed is selling like 100,000 copies. This is a company that publishes who-cares titles like Xanadu Next and continues patching them YEARS after release despite their small player bases.

Sometimes I think it's really more of the character designers. The companies really just give them a general set of bullet points about the character and the concept artist gets to work. Either that or he designs the character model first and the writers just work with it

What do you mean make sense? It's better & much more realistic than the alternative where ever women looks like a man like in Dragon Age Inquisition. I usually play as a male, but I had to play as a female in that game just so I could have at least one feminine looking character out of the entire party. It's funny, Cassandra is supposedly some princess noble but she fucking looks like a Female to Male tranny.

This is not "moe pandering" or "sexualization"
It's just really cheap, uninspired, android app tier art style.
You can tell is a cheap shot from start to finish, made on a tight budget.

>also not nintendo
>shit-lith
Monolith Soft is one of the best developers in my opinion, they have worked on a lot of great games that a lot of people don't know they were involved with, like BotW and Smash 4. Also all 3 Xenoblade games are awesome.

Nobody did also for 2. It was just an add on.

>If you don't like moeblobs, you must want SJW tier trannies

>The game would sell 2 million copies regardless of moe pandering
Tell that to its lesser--selling predecessors

You have to sell your game to someone.

An add-on that wasn't needed, and brought the lowest level of weeb trash into the fanbase, infecting threads with their talk about sucking on girl's feet and whatnot.

Becauae they can.

Totally wrong.
You can't enjoy the characters for who they are. They are women and must be viewed as sex objects at all times.

I don't remember the marketing ever really emphasized Pyra's boobs. Heck, even the onsen scene in Chapter 4 I was expecting all the breast envy shenanigans I had seen a million times and all I got was

>hey, nice bod
>thanks
>talk about some serious shit.

XC2 has its "yaaaaa, hentai!" moments, but it certainly isn't on par with something like fucking Fairy Fencer F

>There is literally nothing between anime cow tits and pig disgusting trannies

Please stop embarrassing yourself.

I just rewatched the cutscenes and yeah, it seems Mythra just outright destroyed their core crystals and I just missed those details.

>hey, nice bod

She said "You've got nice tits" in the Japanese version.

i want to accept her invitation

Not really, that shit never happens besides "I want to fuck x girl" which happens in every Xeno thread about every game.

>XC2 has its "yaaaaa, hentai!" moments, but it certainly isn't on par with something like fucking Fairy Fencer F

Yeah, but it's a slippery slope, this game sold well, so it'll be even worse in the next, and more longtime fans will jump off, it's literally the Persona 4 of Xenoblade.

This, if they wanted to lay on the tropes, there would have been some wacky scenario about Rex and Tora trying to peek and getting caught for it

haven't played Inquisition and i doubt i will untill i can stomach DA2

but do they look like bad models or just really ugly women? because at least the second one can make sense

Again, it wasn't like what you might normally see in Compile Heart shit where the chick with small breasts is constantly feeling insecure about her bust size in comparison or filled with yurifag pandering shit.

Really, aside from actual designs themselves, XC2 is rather tame on the fanservice front and treats most of its female characters with a surprising amount of respect or reservation.

It's way worse now with shit like Niafags, 90% of posts having nothing to do with the actual game.

When will you Xenofags fuck off to /vg/?
I hope the mods BTFO you like they did with Danganronpafags.

Then you have nothing to worry, if X3 is like P5, itll write in Anime tropes only to not do them.

That and itll have twice the number of pointless boring cutscenes

So you recognize that it doesn't matter. Why are you being such a tremendous faggot then?

What? I constantly see DR fans and I love Junko posters

this 2bh I'm getting tired of seeing this "video game" shit on Sup Forums, it keeps bumping my twitter threads off

Nope, it's the same amount of posts like in X with the pictures of the girls wearing scantily clad outfits.

>Also all 3 Xenoblade games are awesome.
2 was literally the Xeno series equivalent of Sonic 06.

>Shame about the producer though, he was clearly a westaboo who didn't want his series to turn into vita level trash.
Fucking this. It's disgusting how fucking blatant the weebshit is in XB2. The lack of debate toward this post is telling of the fact that many are in agreement that XB2 is basically a Neptunia game.

Also, saved that gif. Sums up Compile Heart Chronicles 2 perfectly.

>XC2 is rather tame on the fanservice front
Did you fucking play it, retard? That was the number one topic of complaint when this "game" was brought up, because the people who rightfully hate this "game" are the only ones to have actually played it.

When 3 came out they made so many threads the mods started banning them.

Do you think the DLC story quest will be a sidestory or a continuation of the ending? I think it would be cool to walk around Elysium/New Alrest but I think it's too much to ask, whatever it is I'm sure it will be disappointing.

Sup Forums is nothing but a trash dump now, if you want video games, go to /vg/.

>2 was literally the Xeno series equivalent of Sonic 06.
You misspelled X

>2 was literally the Xeno series equivalent of Sonic 06.
Xenoblade 2 is objectively an improvement over its predecessors on almost everything, Sonic 06 was one of the worse Sonic games.

Almost certainly a sidestory, they said it's not necessary to complete the game to enjoy the DLC.

>mod started banning video game threads to force people into one thread so he could then ban it for being a general
Sounds about right for Sup Forums - video games.

>Complaining about Fanservice in a Xeno game
>Where the previous series was literally about a sexy android who fired lasers from her boobs

Huh

I really dont think the Aegis War can be interesting.

But I trust Monolith soft, maybe theyll do something

Second post you quoted and I wasn't complaining.

Yeah, if only we had a board specially for video game generals.

That happens with every japanese game, but this time they went specifically for that audience.

Beach episode

Xenoblade was never meant to be a Xeno game, and references in 2 don't make it so.

Honestly, you just seem triggered by any fanservice at all that you can't really gauge XC2's properly. Aside from a few character designs, where exactly does fanservice crush the game or become a major distraction?

I think Monolith fanboys are reaching MGS levels of devoted.

I don't think any other fanbase would stuck with a series that fucked them over this much.
