Trying to stay away from this thread to avoid spoilers/leaks, but I wanted to pop in and let you guys know good vibes gaming YT channel has a nice video on the history of the xeno games. I'm only about 30 minutes in, but its worthy of a listen/watch in anticipation of tomorrow.
I'll be avoiding this thread for a few days outside of reply cleanup. It's already early Friday in eastern Australia, and I prefer to avoid character and plot spoilers. XD Weird to think about since it's only 10 in the morning as of this writing.
@kennykenny I was notified via email. Tracking has been initiated since, and it's giving me an arrival time of Monday, same as @defhed. Wishing I'd listed my work address for delivery since I won't be home until very late that day (parents' anniversary), plus it's a work night. Crazy week next week too, so I doubt I'll get to the game until next weekend.
Currently playing: Pokemon Scarlet - The Indigo Disk, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury (Switch)
Well, I might as well start following again. I mean, what can be spoiled between now and tomorrow night 😉. But, I am a little concerned that might Amazon order hasn't shipped yet.
@seaboyluca congrats man and enjoy. It's 8pm here, I will be outside the store in the morning before they open. I just made it to the final chapter of XC2 and will finish it tonight after work, just in time for XC3 tomorrow lol.
I started out with Xenosaga episode 1. As a kid I kept seeing it in the store and the case and title intrigued me and it turned out to be the best game I ever played. I've proceeded to play every Xeno game and Takahashi is the greatest mind in video games.
I want to come in to announce I’ve played four hours of the game and it’s exceeding my lofty expectations. It’s presented so well and it plays like the perfect Xenoblade game, with all the QoL features of 1 and the strategic combat of 2. Runs perfectly (handheld) and the music is so good. English VO is really really good so far, though… it’s a little strange Sena’s the only one with an American accent. All six are voiced well and they sound exactly as I imagined.
@Vortexeo
So happy we finally got Xenoblade profile pictures. It was about time!
@TheJGG
I'm about 2 hours into the game now and just like you I'm very impressed so far.
I always play in tabletop mode and XC3 runs far better that way than previous games.
Still waiting for the SMS confirmation that I can go to the store to pick it up. In generally it arrives during the release date but I am somehow worried as xeno games normally have quite limited numbers in stores...
6 hours in now and I'm beginning to grasp just how huge Aionios truly is.
Those reports that its landmass is 5 times larger than Alrest don't seem to be exaggerated.
I'm not sure if we should mark gameplay changes as a spoiler but I'll do it anyway if anyone wants to discover it themselves. I'm only 2 hours in (so all of this is pretty early in the game) but I love it already!
The little dash mechanic that you have is a lot of fun to use! I find it very helpful when trying to position myself for an attack or get myself to an aura. It makes combat feel faster.
I also really like how you can actually fight enemies while swimming now! In the previous games if you got too deep into the water you wouldn't be able to do anything.
The last thing that I discovered thus far is the fact that you can actually mash out of being toppled. I don't think you were able to do this in previous games but this is definitely a welcome edition!
Spoilers are spoilers but not everyone follows or game the way Spoilers game. I like to Grind when I first start to get their levels high enough to game and have fun at the same time.
