@Tountoes I get what you mean, but I’m thinking more about just from the side of being able to experience the emotions I had playing the game for the first time again, becuase it was such an incredible experience.
@TKundNobody Exactly the same for me. Xenoblade is my absolute favourite game series of all time, and I have absolute faith in Monolith Soft. After watching the announcement trailer, I’ve pretty much avoided everything else. God I haven’t been this hyped in a long long time
I’m very excited about this. The first game was really good, but did have flaws. The fact that he seems to not only know of these flaws, but has made changes to fix them all too fills me with a lot of hope.
Got it. One of my absolute favourite games ever, have the Xenoblade X and 2 collectors editions, and the Xenoblde 2 Pro Controller. How could I say no to something this beautiful (even if I don’t have a vinyl player lol)
@BakaKnight it might be because at the time it was released on the Wii U, whilst it was very good, it looked to some just like a gimmick where you drew on the game pad, plus the advertising for it was very poor. Now though, people know about Platinum’s rep even more, so are more invested In it I think
The thing about this DLC is however you think about it, it puts Game Freak in a bad light, I think. Normally, after a game comes it, eg with Xenoblade 2, it takes a long while before the DLC arrives afterwards. It used scrapped ideas from the main game, and expanded on the meaty Original. Most of development took place after 2’a release.
Here, either game freak began developing this during the development of Sword and Shield, in which case this feels like an expansion on cut post game content (which SwSh is lacking), or they began developing this after SwSh’s release, in which case adding all of these 200+ Pokemon is clearly not as hard as they initially stated, and therefore having to pay more money to be able to catch them feels very greedy.
Overall, I’m not that impressed by all this.
Clearly it therefore isn’t too hard to add the monsters in. I know people can receive these via trading too, but having to pay £30 for these monsters that should have been there already to be added to the game is really poor form.
Played the first steins gate this year, and it has become my favourite story in any medium I have ever experienced. Absolutely fell in love with it, and only realized a few days ago that this had come out on Switch. Absolutely beyond excited, cannot wait!
This is awful to hear - I really hope they can pull themselves out of it.
I hate the idea that they think that the mario and Luigi series is on the decline due to the recent 3DS remakes. It was just the wrong games at the wrong time. I think a brand new switch one would actually sell very well
Finishing the last few chapters of astral chain. Completely loving it. The combat is top notch, haven't had this much fun in a while. Also loving the music too. And the plot, even though it is full of clichés, there are actually quite a few surprising turns that's making me really want to see what's gonna happen next. Would love a sequel!
This is my favourite Game of all time. Great gameplay, insane music, and the most unbelievable story I have ever witnessed. I don't think I've ever been so emotionally drained after finished something in my life.
This deserves to be played by as many people as possible
I'm honestly so excited for this. I've said this before, but I truly hope that the story delivers, as that would be the icing on this already delicious looking cake
This is amazing, but still a little upset that there's no Life Will Change. Still, this is unbelievable! I was expecting something a bit like FF, where we only get about 2 tracks !
I recently managed to get a xenoblade 2 Pro controller. Not only do know have an amazing looking controller from one of my favourite ever series, but it's also unbelievably comfortable

Possibly even hoping for a bravely third announcement too
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (May 25th)
