Seems like GAME and Zavvi are running out of stock. GAME is canceling orders, and Zavvi isn't shipping again for a month.

Really? because a friend of mine (who I begged to import the best jRPG of generation) had a copy shipped from Zaavi this morning.RPGCrazied said:

Just checked GAME. It says out of stock. Zavvi says Availability: "Usually dispatched within a month"
The thing about Takahashi's games is that it isn't really very often about "omg plot twist," but fleshing out things you already know. The game absolutely does not hide much from you at all, and yeah, it shows you lots of stuff really early on - but odds are the player won't make the connections when they first see certain things. It's cool to watch the layers build.InsertNameHere said:

Same. My order from Zavvi shipped at 3am, despite it having the September 30th as estimated ship date.
It could be because I kept trying to cancel it, lmao. Everyone should just try cancelling their orders and see if they ship it to get you to stay with them haha.

They can't resist break when you're using a break inflicting attack during a chain combo.Chanser said:
But you could also just leave them be and come back when you're better equipped for them. They are a bit of a pain to fight.

Bootmii is used for backups in case something goes wrong. You dont really need it per say. I just did the same thing today man so if you have any questions hit me up.
Good god, this game is bringing the OCD me out from the great PSX rpgs-era and I'm loving it.
I'm talking to every townsperson and exploring everything while doing all the sidequests. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing and makes exploring not boring.
Also Fiora wouldn't be half as sexy without her british accent, loving the voice acting so far. Well done NoE!

If any US people are still waiting to buy, you can grab a 10% off code here, which is redeemable @ Zavvi until September 30th

If you used it now (even though they are out of stock), the game would cost £26.87.

Just started this game today despite already having it at release, but I had to clear up my console backlog a bit. And damn, I'm hooked. Already 5 hours in, like it was nothing. It looks beautiful for a Wii game and the english localization is looking great. Getting a little overwhelmed at the amount of side quests and the huge open world.
Also Deus Ex just unlocked for me and I'm afraid that it will have to wait.

That's strange. I went back to Tephra Cave and the big caterpillar in the beginning wasn't there. So it seems that some unique enemies respawns and some doesn't.SecretMoblin said:
Anyway, it's a real shame that this game doesn't have a bestiary. It would have been easier to keep track of the uniques enemies you've killed.

They respawn under certain conditions. If you go back after a certain amount of time it may reappear, or if you try saving/reloading it may reappear. I remember fighting that caterpillar twice, and other uniques (like the caterpillar outside in Colony 9) reappear frequently. I don't think anybody knows exactly what the trigger is to make them respawn, but they definitely do.
I didn't love it - I thought it was too busy - but I enjoyed it quite a bit.Gvaz said:

I WILL FIGHT YOU SIR
(Sorry, the off-topic nonsense ends here
)I've got questions regarding two sidequests in Alcamoth.
Also
Where is the lost boy in Alcamoth? And where is the other lost boy in Eryth Sea? The game doesn't give you any hints at all for later one (as far as I can see at least) and Eryth Sea is pretty huge...
Also
is fought against an army of mercenaries and against that mecenary lady inside of the tomb. Is there a way to deal those enemies damage with the Monado? I could defeat them without any problems, but if there are more of those enemies on the way it would be useful to know...

Yeah, but I just wanted to spend no more than $50. My Zavvi order was only $48. Before I reorder it will be after I get a full refund and waiting another 10 days. Though after another 5 I probably will just ask for a refund.

I dont know if its already been said, but you truly live up to your name, and I dont mean that in a bad way. Its commendable to see someone express so much loyalty and love to this genre. I sincerely hope you get it tomorrow dude.
slaughterking said:
Yes, that's one awesome track. It has a bit of Kajiura's touch from her Xenosaga soundtracks IMO. I remember reading in the Iwata Asks column that Takahashi presented some tracks to the composers, showing them what he wanted Xenoblade's OST to sound like. I'd be curious to know if he indeed showed some of Kajiura's songs.
Other tracks are somewhat reminiscent of Kajiura's work, mostly ACE+ and Kiyota's work. (the piano or string quartet tracks in particular)

So I was loading up the game in Dolphin
and I walked away for a minute and when I came back I noticed the sky of the title screen actually changes over time. Looks and sounds amazing and the night time scene makes a great wallpaper. Too bad OOT's title screen looks like I now have a new favourite after all these years.
It's so good I had to make this time lapse gif.

Far as I remember it's 1F, warp to the lower of the two fountains then head east into the top corner. Should be around there... I think.
As for your other spoiler all I'll say is 'don't worry about it'.
Yeah, it's especially amazing how well it fits with the music, it really starts to soar as you approach sunset, then softens again when it hits night. Not like there's much competition, but it's easily the best title screen I've ever seen. So good.Randomizer said:
25 hours in and just made it to
. The pacing of this game is remarkable, and each area seems more impressive than the last one. I find myself thinking about my next playthough all the time, playing trough it all over again with a different party and focus on different art skills. In some ways it also reminds me of Diablo 2 in that regard, the areas are all very iconic and memorable.

Man, all the people freaking out after less than 2 weeks? Calm the hell down. I've ordered stuff from the states (I live in Australia) and sometimes shipments take up to a month to come in. That's how the postal system works - especially since you're using a free shipping option that would even take like a week to deliver on the same continent! Seriously, I know you want to play the game- I do too - but relax, you WILL get your order. There's a reason why they ask you to wait at least 20 days before enquiring about packages that haven't arrived yet.
