YES, ACE!!!!!!!!

I don't mind the character models especially since they
really did
look like lifeless dolls in XCX.
 
I'm really feeling this.
Yes I made that joke

Never got to play the original Xenoblade but loved X so I'll love this. Now, how about a new last story

Go and play the original Xenoblade Chronicles now! It is so much better than X. No wonder Nintendo distances itself from X and goes back to the roots.
You will thank me and everyone else telling you this later. ;)
 
That sorta cel-shaded look had me thinking, "Hiding hardware limitations." Not trying to troll, but that was my legit first reaction.

I'm more excited for the music than anything else. I'm sure the game will deliver.
 
beside the weird framerate lol, my only problem is that the characters look...too young ._.

I wanted them to be Shulks/Fiona age =/

also the character model- boy is okay looking, so is the red hair girl, but the yellow hair girl looks like shes pulled straight out of the Tales of series lol
 
are you shitting me? better than the shitty fucking faces from XBX. Like get over yourself lol

XBX isn't even relevant here. This isn't a sequel to XBX, it's a sequel to the first Xenoblade, which had a great, unique art style that was held back by the hardware. This could've been a chance to see that art-style fully-realized in HD, but instead they decided to switch to the most generic anime designs ever.
 
I personally liked XCX more than XC. Also seems like a waste to toss the entire setup of that game out the window for this. Nothing here is so amazeballs that it seems worth it just to dump X. Strange direction this took tbh.
 
For me, the original XBC was amazing, but X did not resonate. I am excited to see the number "2" in the title. I hope X was just sort of a side game/experiment.
 
WE COULD ONLY BE SO LUCKY



TBH, a Baten Kaitos 1+2 HD Remaster + new VOs for the first game would be A GREAT THING

Im actually one of the few that love the voice actors in the first game since you play a guardian angel, I always found it cool that's like you hear them from far away.

IMO the voice actors aren't the problem but it was the sound equipment or the way that it was recorded or played that really diminish the quality of the audio in my opinion

8-4 did one of the best localizations of all time with BKO. Just give it to them and have them redo it.
 
Felt this deserved to be giffed Look at that open field. And is the grass full 3D this time? That's amazing.

Not to mention this seems to imply you are on the freaking back of whatever the heck that insanely massive head is.

Thank god they are revisiting this concept. My favorite thing about Xenoblade.

I wonder if this is the same creature we see flying later in the trailer? There could be multiple giant being worlds to explore.
 
I'll take the ass pants, I'm bothered by the fact that it's a shitty kid and his shitty kid face.

Same. I'll be 23 or 24 when this game comes out in 2018, I don't want to be seen playing as a goddamn 10 year old or whatever in public. Like what the hell is wrong with them? Why would would they do that anyway? Who enjoys playing as kids in their games? No one, that's who. smh

Edit: Main character isn't too bad actually, but the rest I don't like.
 
I think Xenoblade was my favourite game of the last generation, so I'm incredibly hyped for this one. I never played XCX (I sold my Wii U), I wonder if we'll see a port of it.

I'll be surprised if it hits in 2017 but if it does it just means I'll be buying a Switch all the sooner, though it is tempting from that Zelda trailer.

Is it too much to ask for British voice acting again this time? It added so much to the charm of Xenoblade, which was sorely missing in XCX (from what I saw).
 
After Lyn i thought everyone would be grateful for the character designs.

Personally I liked the designs of XCX's characters

It was how those designs translated to 3D that bothered me(XC has been this issue too albeit less noticeable). So while XC2 is far and away the best in terms of adapting the art to 3D I still feel like it has more of generic anime look compared to its predecessors at least from what I've seen so far.

After Adamantoise in FFXV, let's hope you don't have to fight that thing.
 
With them saying 2017, if they don release by September then I hope they don't Microsoft it and release it in October or November. Push it back to December or January. I don't want to see it crushed by other big name titles.
 
The fact that they are aiming for 2017 is a very good sign, of course it can be delayed but it has to be far along having a 2017 date even in NA
 
Cant wait.

I honestly got some Baten Kaitos -y vibes from the trailer...hope I'm not the only one.



you are not.
when I saw the tree at the end I was expecti g the Baten kaitos logo
then the big monster appeared and I understood

This is an odd thing to get hung up on. Might just be cause you're kind of young yourself.
 
Already looks and sounds incredible.
Love and played Xenoblade Chronicles and Chronicles X to death.
I can absolutely not wait for this. Super hyped.

The scale looks fantastic.
The character is one of the worst i've ever seen.

I have my doubts this'll actually release in 2017. But I'm willing to wait.
