Hit me with your deepest headlore.

Perdido, Cressidus, Orbrona,Mikhial, Patroka, and Ahkos when?

He really does have a case of sameface. Like Legoman but he's not cranking out stupid cuck bullshit all the time.
15th.

WH-WHAT HAPPENED?

WELCOME TO OUT BANQUET HALL

TONIGHT THE MAIN COURSE WILL BE...YOU!

When is NG+ releasing and should I even care about it right now if I'm not level 99 and don't have all rare blades? Better yet, what the fuck should I even do before starting the new game

Xenoblade 2 questions:

Do you get bonus XP for killing an enemy with a blade combo?

What is the most effective item for raising TRUST?

Is there any benefit to re-rolling chests in-field? Especially big-white/gold chests? Or is their loot set in stone?

>forgetting about the original mofo himself, Sever

How do we now it's the 15th?

No, read the OP, their loot is set.

>tfw xord's VA is muimui in XBC2

youtube.com/watch?v=qlub42U1tYI

Well, I'm almost certain I recall reading something last week that said the update was coming on the 15th, then the most recent notes about it says next week (from the 9th). Might be making it up, but maybe I'm right.

>watashi no gishiki-
>yoku shiteruwa

Well shit it really is the same guy.

the way the head is cut by the silhouette of the shell it looks like a lil bunny in there

All life begins with Pon and ends with Pon. This is the truth! This is my belief!...At least for now.

Is this fan art?

It was Pneuma when she was still a human on earth. She worked along side Klaus

But Pneuma was never a human, she was a computer processor

But even before that she was human and is what you see up in the thread. Just like how Klaus was just a mere scientist before the incident

So, we all in agreement that Kasandra is the cutest girl in the game, right?

No that's Morag

I believe you are mistaken

>TFW when your ship is canon

>she was human
No dude, she was literally a processor from the supercomputer. There is no human component to the aegis.
Best tank, best dark
My nigga.

What? Are you thinking of Galea or something? She became Mayneth, not Pneuma. As far as I know, there's nothing in the game to suggest any of the aegises were ever human.

I know I'm just memeing. I just thought that image was interesting and it made me think what if the trifecta were actual humans before the split or not.

>Come to bed Rex~

will my legendary core crystals carry over to a new game plus. bout to get 99 then get all new rare blades in first hour

You're a goof.
Nut.exe
It said all items will carry over so I assume that includes both boosters and cores.

Honestly, what do you even see in that little shit?

>Rex...if it's with you...than I don't mind

...

...

It looks good on her though

I kind of want and old timey wimey steam punk theme of all the other blades now

I now regret trying to do Heart to Hearts in X. Trying to remember if you did the previous one is annoying to find. Also trying to find the person you are looking for in the location they are in gets annoying too.

Feels good

>s ranked godfrey
I have never pressed the + button to skip so much sidequest stuff before.
But now I have more weapon points.

Yeah that can be a pain, I just look them up online

I forgot how you do poses after moves.

Better than the dumbass thong over microskirt getup she ended up with.

finish up your affinity charts, if anything else

You know it.

I like that one too unfortunately

This picture lacks a certain something...

I sense a suspicious absence of Welsh. Smells like Chorizo.

...

I need it, or another blade with something like it.

>NOBODY HAS EVER RETURNED FROM THE SPIRIT CRUCIBLE ALIVE, WOOOOO BEWARE REX
>lol nah there's a group of nopon cultists that just go there to hang out
Go fuck yourself, Gramps.

Thought that was the dumbest shit that everyone and their mother sets up shop in there after they play it up to be a total no-man's-land.

>nobody but leftherians can get in
>no one has come back alive
>except all these graverobbers and maybe Torna and also all our Merc buddies and countless other people
You're such a great guardian, gramps. There's a ton of stuff in the game that doesn't add up right.

It’s a good thing the characters are endearing, because the story of the game is fucking retarded.

Welcome to story driven RPGs. If it didn't happen in the main quest, it didn't happen. This is the same game that has the story say you need to escape, then refuse to acknowledge fast travel existing.

finding partners in X is like rolling rare blades in 2. one tragic flaw in a great game

they never really said that though
nobody has ever returned from specifically going to search for the sword. people go in though, for other reasons. they don't go in very deep.

>from specifically going to search for the sword
Literally grasping at straws. Just accept that side material doesn't obey the rules the story sets out.

If I change blades to another driver with overdrive does it reset their affinity or do anything else like that?

Everything after chapter 5 ends is just full fucking retard, man.
Nope.

Dude we saw plenty of evidence in the place that people have been in there before. It's just nobody has successfully gotten into the sword area.

>Looking through the archive for the gradivus mistake that put me at the top of the XCX HH leaderboards
>Come across other shit I did
hnnnnnnnn I forgot how cute Lin was with some other hairs.

Kassandra should have been Zeke's story blade.

Chapter 5 and beyond is when you can see that budget and manpower had declined.
Areas were getting smaller and smaller, the story was getting more Pants on head, and the Spirit Crucible may top Okumura's Palace for worst dungeon I've played in recent years

That's not Perun.

I like how I'm still seeing people play this game online.

Is there any way of making the sea cloud level go down in Gormott and Mor Ardain besides waiting?

Is it still possible to take pictures in this game?

Never. Pandy is perfect for him.
I don't understand how the writing took such a huge shit on itself halfway through the game. I have to fight the final boss still but there's so many things I don't have answers to.
Go take a long rest at the inn you goober.

that makes me smile.

You can upload your current screen in any given Wii U game by hitting Home and uploading it to an image hosting website, unless I'm misremembering.

fuck, you've reminded me that once the internet shuts off there'll be no easy way to get your screenshots out...

No game will ever top XBX for "worst story." This one's honestly pretty fuckin' straightforward. In fact, by comparison, it's a downright masterpiece.

it's a great story. it's just half a story
it would be like if xenoblade ended when they found out telethia periodically come raze all the life because xanthe is terrified they'll become spaceborne and he'll have basically shot his load and be out of life force forever.

>it's a great story. it's just half a story
You can't fucking have your cake and eat it too, an incomplete story is a shit story.

I think not using a FTL weapon to kill your FTL opponent who is somehow slower than it but threatening to kill yourself is more retarded than anything X threw at us. Though I never finished it either so maybe I'm missing stuff

I disagree.
HOWEVER I will grant you that it's a lot easier to write a good first half of a plot than it is to finish it.

you can't hit someone who moves at lightspeed with a laser. you can just hit yourself with it faster than he can try and stop you because he needs you alive.

now why she didnt incinerate herself afterwards when everything was over and friends were safe, I don't know

>Though I never finished it either so maybe I'm missing stuff

Nah Xcx is just downrigt dumb most of the time.

You'll never not be able to use the web browser.

>Let's make a science-fantasy game, where it's fantasy for 90% of the game and then it turns out it was a sci-fi setting all along! Then we can do a direct sequel with the same exact hook!
>Let's make a science fiction game with aliens and space travel but remove all of the story

I hate this. There's a difference between fantasy with light sabers and sci-fi, and we've had fantasy with light sabers twice in a row. I just want a cool story with aliens and alien planets.

Is this a sexual proposition?

>XCX has no story
Love this meme.

oh okay good

>king
Obviously.

>"DUDE MIRA MAGIC LMAO" is a story
Love this meme.

>"Dude weird space phenomena" isn't a story
That's literally 100 episodes of Star Trek right there my man. Where X goes wrong is not having the equivalent of the end-episode "Ah, so this weird space thing works like this, for these reasons, the universe certainly is a strange place".

No body can ever be faster than a laser because physics doesn't work that way. Even if he could move at light speed, she said it would come from space and blow her up before he took the one step to deflect the beam so she could have taken him out. And if just the targeting ray is strong enough to kill a blade, why didn't that kill Malos 500 years ago? Why not start off with the heavy firepower instead of saving it for a self destructive trump card? Or at least use it on Ahkos/Mik/Patroka to wipe out the backup baddies. Why didn't Jin just use his lightspeed matter control bullshit powers to go to the world tree himself and kill god? Ophion couldn't stop him plus he can fly in full power mode. AND if Mythra wanted to die but also keep Torna from getting to the world tree why not just let it happen? Why resonate with Rex in the first place?
Unrelated but why the hell is Addam so irrelevant after he gives that ridiculous speech about the full power of the aegis?

>using physics as an argument when the ability exists to shape reality as one sees fit

>she still doesn't have porn beside that one blowjob picture

>Thinking the plot is the story
Way to miss the point.

>Stopped playing after they removed THINK YOU CAN TAKE ME
>Saw no reason to kept playing since I already did everything
>Heard that NG+ is out and that you can apparently recruit Torna characters and their blades

Holy fuck, is the wiki correct on this? Is New Game+ not a total blunder and I get to keep all the stuff I earned? Can I replace Agate with Patroka or do they use different weapons?

you're making a few good points but some others I think you're wrong. like she obviously has to stand under it for long enough to actually get killed, he could probably run up and push her out of the way, but didnt wanna risk it. she couldnt reliably use it to kill him though any more than you can kill someone with a laser now. they will just move when they get too hot.

I legit think XC2 story is on par with XCX with how bad it is due to X story not even trying to make sense while 2 trying to sound deep and shit and failing miserably

Where's the Pyra frodo image?
In order
>Information about the laser shooting comes at the same speed as the laser, so to a terrestrial observer, there's no way of knowing when the laser is going to get stronger
>Probably because she didn't have an accurate position, or just because she didn't have to think of it. Keep in mind all the seiren shots couldn't take out malos 500 years ago, and those are more powerful than the targeting laser
>Pyra can't easily use Seiren's functions, and mythra doesn't want to shoot off energy weapons willy nilly
>Because the WT had protections in place, and because jin's powers take a serious toll on him. Add to that, Malos also wanted to see the Architect
>Mythra wants to see daddy to ask permission to die, not wants to die
>Addam is the legendary hero from 500 years ago, not today's hero. His story is done.

>Start Xenoblade 2
>See thread is supposed to be spoiler free
>Curious about thoughts on early game
>Enter and start reading
Oh, no. No, no, no. Mistake

People stopped bothering to properly spoiler their posts after the first couple weeks user. You ought to get out of here quick.

I'm early game too
Starting to die to enemies though, wonder if I'm doing anything wrong.

>wonder if I'm doing anything wrong.

Maybe you don't have a reliable healer and tank.
