Hopefully this being shown off means a 2014 release is possible, but I'm not holding my breath. Never played Xenoblade but this looks like a Day 1 purchase for me.

Nintendo still maintains that it's for 2014 world wide.
I think they're waiting for E3 to do a giant blow out of the game.

No you pretty much got it.

Xenoblade was only hyped so much because Wii Stans had almost 0 JRPGs to play and so the few that came out were hyped to kingdom come. Only for them to be average JRPGs

this is so sad

Can't say I agree with you buddy, but you know, opinions and all that stuff.

There seriously should be a seperate thread for all the downers on this one.

This game looks freaking amazing. Love that this more of the same with extras and a facelift. Xenoblade was my favourite JRPG and this looks to continue that legacy.

Loving the smoothed out combat system. Designs are so much better and the scope of this game is immense. Doubt we'd get a similar experience on the other consoles for the obvious haters on here.

I wouldn't say they're all "haters." I'm definitely disappointed we didn't get an official title and a more story based preview.

Some of the responses though reek of shit starting and are indeed dumb.

Speak for yourself, man. I bought Xenoblade 3 times and enjoyed every minute of it. You didn't like it? Fine, don't make judgements about the people who do and why they like it.

You know, if people are talking about it that's a good thing. I would much rather see a thread with 600 posts with a mix of people saying they like it and don't like it compared to a thread with 200 posts all saying they like it. It shows the interest is there, and some may even come around once they see more of what the game has to offer.

I dunno, as someone who didn't "get" Xenoblade, this looks really awesome. I loved when he pulled out a chaingun and damage numbers started raining, then jumped in that huge mech.

Love it.

Also, HUGE SUCCEEDED!
 
These battle voices are going to sound atrocious in English, considering how annoying they already are in Japanese right now. Sounds like someone put a badly voiced anime on a turn table.

Did you like it in Xenoblade? Assume it would pretty much be the same.

They grew on me after awhile. I guess I already commented on this. If it's the typical American VA cast then I'm not sure I am going to enjoy it either.

I didn't like them much in Xenoblade either, but it's a pet peeve of mine. I'm going to buy it anyway though, so I may as well warm up to it lol

Maybe there's domes all over the planet.
Like, a Russian one and a Japan one and a British one.
That would be amazing!

Yeah it would be. Kind of like in Xenoblade in which you have different colonies that you could visit. So there could be a Japanese, Russian, German, British, Etc.

never left the stone age
Totally America invading another planet. No two ways about it.

What if [Super Huge Spoilers for Xenoblade]
The ending of Xenoblade didn't restructure the two gods into a planet, but reset/restructured the entire universe. We might be dealing with alternate universe Earth here, or some shit

Nope, it looks pretty much the same as the E3 trailer. It's just a horrible quality video. We got full, uncompressed, HD videos for the last trailers. We haven't for this one.

That could be it, I thought the Bayo trailer looked really fuzzy too. I'll wait for better trailers to pop up.

It's very easy to notice who hasn't played Xenoblade.

Nah, I would get on him too much. He probably just didn't like it that's all. Still just because he didn't like it doesn't mean he should act like every person who did like it is some sort who only liked it because there system was apparently starved for JRPGs. I love Xenoblade because I find it to be a genuinely amazing game.
 
As far as MMO-style combat systems go, Xenoblade's wasn't too bad. I'll still need to hear that they've improved the combat (beyond adding mechs) or designed some proper sidequests before I can join the hype train.

Would be nice if Lightning Returns was extended the same courtesy. You guys are so sensitive. No one even said it was the worst game ever made, or called the creator a sexual deviant, or called all fans of the game losers. They just they think it looks boring. That opinion has to be quarantined off? What a massive double standard.

For the record, I'm getting it day one, and it was a big reason why I got a Wii U. But I still think both trailers have been lackluster. I had similar issues with the first trailer. No story, no characters, no game title. They are trying to sell this game in a very weird way.

Xenoblade was fun enough though, and this looks like more of the same; with vehicles.

That's not a dome, though. It is, unequivocally, a space-faring vessel. :)

Also, I'm going to go ahead an pat myself on the back for calling all of this way back when the first teaser was released.

It's also possible you could have an "end of the Earth" type scenario in which the world was ending so the different nations of the world all left for space and ultimately landed on this planet. It could mean that there are several nations and not just the US.

America, fuck yeah!!

So this isn't related to Xenoblade at all? Completely different universe?

It sure looks that way but there is a small possibility it could be the same universe based on certain events in Xenoblade. I find this unlikely though, I think it's a different universe.

Xenoblade was hailed by many, if not most, reviewers as the JRPG of the generation. Stop.

As long as the pacing is better than Xenoblade, im in. Xenoblade's soundtrack was amazing, the graphics and overworld in general was extremely well done for the tech. The battle system could have been a little more interesting, and kinda fell flat in the middle of the game (the last boss battles were great as were the first few) and the pacing needed to be a little tighter with less filler areas...but it was one of the top tier last gen.

I don't know what the specifics are. All I know (rather, am very sure of) is that this is an alien planet.
