Not everybody does. Zeke/Pandy is getting art and Mórag/Brighid has some stuff (mostly humour).
Easton Anderson
They have a lot of pretty good moments in-game
Jacob Rodriguez
Anyone care to explain mikhail surviving and the heart to hearts make any sense in the context of the story? Only on chapter 3 but I could have sworn the other 2 flat out died unless I'm remembering wrong. Sure Mikhail could pass since no body.
Or are we supposed to take this as one big what if?
Parker Mitchell
Tons of shit in the game makes no sense. Your party has no way of getting back to any old area once they enter the land of morytha yet there are quests that can only be accessed even later in the game and even make references to events that happen after Morytha.
Daniel Sanchez
well theoretically we'd have to consider stuff like that as Post game canon IF the devs consider all the content in the game canon. But yeah thats dumb as fuck. I guess everything is canon somehow someway till the devs say otherwise.
Nicholas Torres
They literally said ng+ blades are just for fun and aren't meant to jive with the story
Isaiah Thomas
Well just watched the cutscene again, Jin was the only one to disappear, so I suspect that the devs went with the cast assumed they were dead, but once again no bodys. I guess the devs left it open for them to be resuscitated somehow someway. Thats the only sense I can make of it since neither of their corpses disappear in the cut scenes.
Juan Roberts
oh well, it just feels forced as fuck to call some of the cast back to reprise their roles. For a short tidbit. user you got any citations for that just curious? I haven't seen an interviews or whatnot recently since alot of shit can sometimes be taken in the wrong ways.(Like that old interview regarding some of the contents of the new adventure(which was vague as fuck).

>I could eat these by the dozen! You're gonna eat them by the hundred and you're gonna like it.
Grayson Sanchez
Why didn't Mikhail just ram his battleship into Indol instead of turning into a giant robot and then punching it? If the giant robot had arms that were thick and hard enough to harm Indol then the battleship itself could have just used the arms as a ram to smash and penetrate at high speed instead of having to rely on the ability to pivot around an axis in midair to gain punching power
Julian Torres
Do longer Merc missions fill out more of a blade affinity chart?
Oliver Scott
No. For merc spam the best missions are Ursula's
Ryan Davis
Mik surviving requires no special explanation because he's not even the only survivor. There's a separate quest where you recover a couple people far less powerful than him who also survived. Everyone else is strictly non-canon because they can sequence break, but Mik is locked by the plot, so you could make his presence fit if you wanted.

Does anyone have rips of the sprites? Someone has to have a full fucking compilation of all the blades.

>oh well, it just feels forced as fuck to call some of the cast back to reprise their roles. They didn't call back anyone, all of their lines had already been recorded and were in the game's files because they'd been working on NG+ before the game shipped. As for where they said that this is all just for fun: nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/xenoblade-chronicles-2-director-takahashi-reveals-new-update-information >As you might expect, you could potentially get them from a Common Core Crystal early in the game, which kind of wrecks the story, but our goal here is to prioritize making the game even more fun to play.

Ian Reed
I got a bunch of random ass quests that I never finished in NG (did all the important ones I think). Should I bother finishing them or just move on? I think the only ones I kinda wanna finish are the nopon brothers and sisters and doubloons shit. Also did I make a mistake in giving all my blades tachyon chips for unique designs if I wanted to do a level 1 NG+ run to make it more difficult? Will I just steamroll shit with that chip?

Why did they do this?
Nolan King

Ethan Cox
You really have to appreciate that they apparently bothered to add panties for every single female blade that they could possibly be seen on.
Adrian Diaz
List?
Matthew Brown
When do Blades shout out Drivers' names? I still haven't heard Perdido call Zeke Lord Thunderbolt.
Noah Adams
>People argued last thread about why Rex and Co didn't fight the ship when they went to pick up Jin >'IT'S A HEAVILY ARMORED...' LIGHT, FUCKING, SPEED. HELL THEY'RE FASTER THAN LIGHT SINCE THEY BEAT JIN LIGHT CAN TRAVEL THE LENGTH OF THE ENTIRE WORLD 7.5 TIMES IN ONE FUCKING SECOND! THEY COULD JUST SPIRAL AROUND THE DAMN THING AND BREAK IT APART BEFORE ANY OF THOSE FUCKS EVEN PUSH A BUTTON. EVEN IF YOU FUCKING LOWBALL REX AND PNUMONIA TO BE ABLE TO CREATE A SMALL SCRATCH ON THE HULL ONE WITH STRIKE, THEM SWINGING AT LIGHT SPEED (IGNORING ENTIRELY THE MOMENTUM GENERATING MORE FORCE) WOULD TEAR IT IN HALF BEFORE THEY COULD DO ANYTHING. You guys are just as bad as the Japanese. Swear to God.
Joseph Robinson
Those aren't very detailed panties though, look how awful the distinction between where they stop and the legs start are. If you want true panty dedication, look no further than the girls in FF Type 0 where they have unique panties for all their outfits and you can't even look at them easily.
Benjamin Gonzalez
Why were Mythra and Kora so mean to Praxis in the girl power quest? She's way more waifu material than the both of them combined.
Blowdown is useless right? Like I'm looking at Meleph's Greataxe moveset and it's absolute garbage.
Dominic Carter
Yeah no it's not great. It's just a weaker version of topple. The most it can do is cancle's an enemy's skill but so can break and topple
Chase Ross
They probably never forgave her for trying to kill them before she was reawakened.
Xavier Campbell
Im running on mostly gold chips and its a steam roll, that and you can't level down nia till after her fucking rescue so for almost the first quarter of the game shes stuck at w/e lvl she was in your original file. Leveling down helps alot with making higher lvls a threat, but even a half completed affinity chart and driver chart makes it silly. I know there's a list of quests(at least on reddit that might be worthwhile to do) but Im pretty sure if you've barely put a dent in those you might as well just NG+.
Wyatt Cox
Uh, man. You do realize you can go back to Argentum as soon as you get on the ancient ship and level Nia down, right?
James Wood
Well I've basically done everything in the game aside from some quests so I'm OP as fuck. I just don't want to be OP as fuck for NG+ but I still want my blades to have their cool looking weps so I had to use Tachyon.
Hunter Kelly
A bottomless character will always look weird. And desu the only good panties this game has are QT's.
Jace Carter
Ah forgot about that, must've just thought I couldn't skip travel yet, but she is still stuck like that until after the ship right? you literally can't not be OP unless you never did anything your blades or characters. Im pretty sure you'd have to have a speed runner save to still have some semblance of a challenge. At the end of the day NG+ is just for a couple new blades to toy with, the bards exp trade in bonuses, and to get the final 2 menu screens.
Josiah Edwards
If she got captured, she'll be stuck until you break her out and she's added to the party. Then you can fast travel out again.
Xavier Gray
RIP whens challenge mode
Carter Taylor
I really wish they locked fast travel in this game whenever it didn't make sense. At least until the end of the game.
Camden Peterson
Sometime between now and summer?
Xavier Martin
You are ruining my life
Landon Torres
I'm really only worried about the content of new adventure post game or not. Everything so fars been a joke short of the new menus screens. NG+ was almost an after thought, and they could have found some way to put half that extra content later into the original game (like zekes special and all those nice lvling/bard bonuses) Hell half the blades could have just simply dropped at the end of the Main story and we'd be left with a little extra story content that actually makes some semblance of sense. I'm literally replaying the game to refresh my memory on the story and to get the final ending menu screens.
Angel Thomas
who-ryuu? There's only four. wow, indigo thong! thanks for this, guy. bollocks oh god.. that's adorable. and he DOES wear contacts!
Josiah Foster
I would appreciate it more if it was a featureless flesh-colored blob
Brayden Richardson
I just finished the game and loved the ride.
The whole sacrifice and then return of Mythra/Pyra was a bit forced but I will take my happy ending.
Also, whom was your favorite waifu? For me was Mythra with Zenobia/Theory as close seconds.
Luis Wilson
Agate and Praxis
Angel Cook
Nia and Homura with Polar Claw as a second
Parker Gomez
Praxis was the first I completed the affinity chart for so I guess we're married now.
Isaiah Campbell
How did Takahasi go from Xenogears to Chronicles 2? Is he making some kind of elaborate joke?

Logan Sanders
>tfw spoiled by FFT0 and it's attention to detail for panties
Meanwhile games like Persona 5 just have bike shorts in every single outfit.
Owen Wood
I really hope challenge mode actually adds some sort of challenge even for OP builds. It better not just be shit like every enemy having 2 times health and damage.
Jacob Rodriguez
I'm hoping for someone with a band-aid or less in my lifetime.
Christopher Baker
Bumping with Poppi
Jayden Flores
if the challenge itself just demands a certain build to work and then rely on RNG, that isnt really fun.
Nathan Moore
So you can only activate Pneuma and Eye of Shining Justice in the lead slot, right? Like, the AI won't pop it?
Brandon Jackson
You can tell AI Rex to activate Pneuma but you can't tell him which element to use. He just picks one that fits for your current combo.
Benjamin Kelly
Alright, I guess I'll test the same thing out with Zeke.
Hunter Adams

Why do those lolis show so much leg? And have so easily viewed panties.
Jace Sullivan
Because Japan.
Wyatt Walker
Well gang, looks like we're up to our eyeballs in a new mystery.
Seriously though, never had Brighid die like this. Can someone who has her make Morag your leader and then die from fall damage and report back if Brighid looks like this? (No change, she's knelled over or sprawled like pic related.)
Jason Flores
wait, i thought they had shorts show pantsu
Luke Brooks
what's unusual about this
Mason Johnson
It looks jaggy either because the panties are a separate layer and their clipping (unlikely based on Poppi) Or, it's part of the figure and they just fold on itself which is a lot more noticeable since the colors contrast and there's nothing to help cover it.
Henry Carter
...
Wyatt Phillips
it's no jaggier than her outer thigh. this game is lowpoly in places. basically anywhere they can get away with it which is great hot damn. thank you.
Brayden Scott
This is what she looks normally looks like when you defeat her. (Yes, her eyes open.) She only sprawled out once in all those times.
