Mike Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 The game that got me most excited in today's event. I'm calling 2019 for this to release in the West, though.
Blade Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Very excited to see this revealed! Looks amazing!
James McGeachie Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Looks good, but I dont like the main character design at all.
Serebii Posted January 13, 2017 Author Posted January 13, 2017 The game that got me most excited in today's event. I'm calling 2019 for this to release in the West, though. US press site says 2017
Glen-i Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 I like how the title implies that Xenoblade Chronicles X never happened. Thank Bionis that they bought ACE back for the soundtrack! Maybe it won't be totally awful now!
Aperson Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Not quite sure how they're going to handle a sequel. The original game had such an amazing ending, quite possibly one of the happiest endings I've ever seen in a video game. I do appreciate them going back to this type of design though. I can appreciate X was a game that they really wanted to make, but it's a game I bought back in 2015 and I'm still only halfway through it having stopped playing every now and again. There are a few too many problems for my liking on that game. Here's hoping XC2 goes back to what made the original the game it was, XCX was way too complicated where XC1 with the same kind of battle system made everything so much easier to understand. Hopefully this game will have a good plot and characterisation and not feel too much like a rehash of the original game. Considering this is Monolith then they are probably going to come up with some new kind of twist, especially with some of the twists that got thrown up during XCX from the half of the game I played such as: Your character is actually a robot
Serebii Posted January 13, 2017 Author Posted January 13, 2017 NoA are saying 2017. Amazing if that happens As are NOE
Hogge Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Having only played Xenoblade Chronicles X, this reveal left me kinda baffled. Where's all the sci-fi stuff? And what's with the art style? It looks like a generic JRPG now.

It looks like a generic JRPG now. You really should play the original Xenoblade, then you'll understand why this game went in this direction. This is looking more like the sequel most Xenoblade fans wanted in the first place. I do agree with the more anime art style, it's a strange turn, but at least their faces look more normal now.
Kaxxx Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Wasn't a fan of the faces in X. Manga/JRPG style is welcomed.
Kounan Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 HDKirin@HDKirin Red-haired girl in Xenoblade 2 trailer is the Monado. The fucking schtick this time is your Monado is a full-fledged anime girl. God damn.
Glen-i Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Master, there is an 80% chance that this premise is totally ripping off Skyward Sword. Also, your battery is running low. 1
Aperson Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Trailer and some of the music that was recently released. Soundtracks I've heard so far are pretty great so far, great to have ACE back on board.
nekunando Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 I love how the 'Epic Battle Theme' seems to feature a little segment of 'Engage the Enemy', my favourite track from the original Xenoblade Chronicles I got goosebumps during the Nintendo Spotlight because of this and turned my disinterest in Xenoblade Chroncles 2 into desire
Kav Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) Needs a bit of polish... Edited August 25, 2017 by Kav
Glen-i Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 On the plus side, I can at least read the damn UI! X was hilariously hard to read, especially on the Gamepad.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 13 minutes ago, Kav said: Needs a bit of polish... Yeah, it looked jittery when I was watching the stream but I thought it was just the stream itself. Still, there's plenty of time to fix it, I mean it's not coming until next year. 2
Hero-of-Time Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Lovely stuff. The Pro Controller they showed in the Direct also looked quite nice. 1
Blade Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 I think for once I am interested in the special edition. Looks good!
Sméagol Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Yeah I'm probably getting that. The pro controller could be a candidate if I need a second one, though I probably won't.
ArtMediocre Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 Not really sold on the english voice acting though.. I thought the whole presentation during yesterdays direct was dull, and that small titan which did the narrative.... it was just bland.
