Yep, basically, with the beam saber and you're controlling two blasters with your mind. Kind of like the Force.
Its the high-frequency blade from Metal Gear Rising. I've never play the game before. I only have a Wii U. I just like the design.

All of these are a work of art!
Hahaha I get you... Mine downloaded on sunday and I don't plan to play any game on my Wii U until it is December 4 and I can play Xenoblade X.
Not really. But that Elma is the most important human character is fairly well known, specially since she is one of the most high rank officials in BLADE and respected by everyone.
Managed to forget about this game after it came out in Japan, until now. Now the wait is gonna suck. I really wasn't into the music (particularly the lyrics) but it's kind of grown on me. I was able to deal with Persona 3's music, so I should be okay with this. This is entirely my kind of game in every other way I've seen or read, so I'll find a way to deal.
Remember that feeling with Super Mario Maker. Waiting for shipping in this case. My fridge just can't handle Xenoblade.

Why would you consider anything aside from
Xenoblade Chronicles X |OT| X Gonna Give It To Ya
Xenoblade Chronicles X |OT| X Gonna Give It To Ya
Because that's gonna be the one for Monster Hunter X

That still is the best one.
so, as far as I can understand, the game can be run on disc, but it helps to install 10gb of "other data" from online? Will the game operate while also downloading that data, in case I don't want to wait a couple hours.
Cause, I don't have 28gb's of storage space to buy it on the e-shop!
I'll throw out that Xenogear's was one of my all time PS1 RPG faves, and I think I played 85-90% of Xenoblade, got sidetracked and never went back, but I really liked the game (think I might have youtubed the ending a long time ago). Will miss the less-exaggerated anime-designs of the Xenoblade characters. Think I played a bit of Xenosaga one, and really didn't like it. Never tried any of the other 'saga games.

You can download the packs now. It asks if you have the game but it doesn't do any sort of check to verify that you actually do have it.

Gimme dat review GX: https://twitter.com/BitnerdGX/status/669046282846105600
You will have pop in even with data packs. I assume the digital version will also show pop in because the game uses an engine similar to Xenoblade Chronicles', where the map has all the priorities and the enemies, and smaller objects loads only if you get closer to them.
It'd be insane if you could see all the enemies in the distance but with a game as big as this one, it'd mean other sacrifices.
With the data packs the load times gets smaller but you can see some pop in and texture loading problems (in menus and NLA for example). It's ok to me by the way, but I think some people can be disappointed when they experience it. It's better if you expect these things even with data packs...

I've noticed this applies especially to human structures out in the wild. It was kind of surprising to me how close they are when they appear in E3 footage and recent videos. That's the only thing that's really bothered me from the little I've seen, mostly because I'm currently unsure of how I'm supposed to find them if they're not visible from a big distance. Hopefully they're on the GamePad map or something.
Man, I am so glad I don't live in the US (when it comes to vacation days). Here in Germany we're guaranteed at least 24 paid vacation days. For most people it's actually even more, e.g. 30 days for me. On top of that there are 10-13 paid holidays, depending on the state you're working in.
Looking forward to 4 weeks of winter vacation to play Xenoblade.
Xenoblade Chronicles X [OT]: I'm really FeeLIN it. 
I remember face complaints in the Xenoblade thread too and when the game came out everyone was too amused by the personalities of Shulk and his crew to care. "What a bunch o' jokahs".
The funy thing is that people might end up liking Lin when they play the game too. From the little I've seen she has a lot of personality and I like the English voice actress. She sounds age appropriate without being quite as shrill as Japanese Lin (who really didn't bother me either).

I think 98% of OT names are just bad or in-jokes I really don't care to get.
This is perfect.

Losing "It's Reyn Time" admittedly made me care a bit less for the game in the last year or so, but it'll live on forever

Asscaves is pretty memetic.
This is the point where I remove all GameXplain vids from my watch history. I don't want to be casually spoiled by some "recommended video".

Huzzah, Last Boss and Ending will be available on GameXplain day 1.
This gif needs to be in the OT, it's in almost every xenoblade thread lol
Fixed
I also like this one from the earlier stuff too.

We need the original X.gif, the one where the character climbs the into the mech at the beginning.
the game is overwhelming also for those who spent 100+ hours with XenoWii.
So:
1) apart from the orders you can give to your partners, is there a way to directly control one of the other party memebers during fights?
2) do the party members upgrade their experience even if they are not active on the battleground?
3) do the different techniques still affect the damage differently based on you positioning compared to the monster?

Are the Data Packs still not on the EU E-shop?
All this talk about gifs. Next time Monolith announces a game, I'm just gonna see their logo, close the video, and then immediately go on blackout. There's nothing like going into a game properly blind.
Hopefully the gap between announcement and release isn't nearly 3 years again lol.

They better thumbnail and title it carefully.
So I played an hour just to see how it's looking and I walked away impressed.
You can see its limitations, but it runs quite well and includes some things I didn't expect (such as object motion blur in many instances).
I must say that it feels 100x better to play than Xenoblade simply due to the animation. The original was just so sloppy looking in motion. Terrible running and jumping animations that cheapened the presentation. Here, though, characters have more weight and feel connected to the world while running around. The sense of scale is also much larger.
The first town in Xenoblade always felt barren as if you were exploring a distant LOD model rather than a proper town. NLA feels genuinely massive in comparison. Much more immersive.

Why you do dis to me!
With all the other reports of the game, I can't wait to start exploring.
But atleast it's less than 2 weeks away!
