Can't we replace Tatsu with the female one in the Hope affinity quest?
She was actually adorable and the way the race speaks is funnier and endearing when it's not Tatsu.

While hunting around I get a yellow sniper rifle for my skell.
Upgraded this thing to the best I can and it's an absolute beast. In some cases one shotting a lot of harder enemies.

Some of these cutscenes, I'm just sitting here gritting my teeth on how bad they are. First JRPG like this I've played in awhile, and I'm thinking back on my youth wondering how I made it through stuff like this.
My gf's first exposure to this type of game too, she walks through the living room looks at the TV then me and wonders if I'm insane.

what weapon does it use?
I second this!!
I want a cute female noppon in next game Q_Q
I think it's bugged, I saw it too.
I already reported it to Nintendo, didn't got a reply yet.
Knife! It comes from Psycorruptor.
Got my skell!
Can't fly yet but I'll get there tomorrow. Exploring the world is already way better then it was on foot.
It did add another layer to the game, as in I need to figure out how the darn thing works in combat. I bought the 'best' parts of each slot in the store and the damage he does is pathetic. My own character easily does twice or triple the amound of damage my mech does currently.
Any tips?

Up to Chapter 3 so far, and I'm fighting these soldier guys in order to level up some more. I've been having a ton of fun so far.
Also, Lin is fantastic. That is all.

eh if knife i cant use it. love my dual swords. Was hoping for a ranged weapon haha
Started the game last night.
My first impression: huge impressive world, but with story and character design like something from 2003... which is kind of charming, in all honesty. Gameplay seems fine so far, very MMO. Obviously I have a lot left to learn and experience. I'm optimistic that I'll agree more with the reviewers that said it's well paced than the ones that said it drags on.

Holy crap. I want this so much.
On an unrelated note, I genuinely can't believe my character agreed to keep working with
The Murderess
Repair Job is really getting to me now. Just need the White Cometites but the mining probes ain't giving me shit and I've planted them at every Primordia probe site I can access at my current skill level. Can't even buy the fucking things with reward tickets it seems.
Tell me there's another way to do this!

I can't for the life of me find Elma's first heart-to-heart, I know it is around the elevator at the western gate in the afternoon, but I just can't find her.
She isn't in my party and I even gave her white clothes to make her stand out more.
edit: and then I found her haha

I like Tatsu but I still laughed. Dude, he is nowhere near the most annoying person in a jrpg, or rpg period. Just a juicy potatsu

I really enjoy the character design. Everyone has a statuesque appearance - it's almost like playing with action figures which, in a weird way, makes the game more whimsical for me. I like to imagine that I'm playing with some elaborate, massive play-set that my 9 year old self could have only dreamed of.
Loving this game and, as someone who is very much NOT an RPG regular, that's a pleasant surprise!

Tatsu is the goat side kick character
You mean Rikki. Tatsu is second to the Heropon.
this is the point.
jRPGs have become so formulaic, and most just seem determined on hitting all of the same notes that every other one hits.. XCX is like XC... a love letter to jRPGs from the 16-bit and 32-bit eras.
IMHO Monolithsoft's biggest problem isn't their current games.. it's how do you expand on the concepts/gameplay of the games while still keeping the "greatest hits" like setup that we love?
Granted with that being said.. so far their jRPGs have been... well let's call it what it is.. they are the most consistent (and best?) jRPG developer of the last 10+ years?
So we'll have to see what's next.. hopefully just as fun and compelling as they've managed to stay up through now.
should be fashion gear(?)
Tatsu also calls himself a heropon. Riki is just a pretender.

Tatsu's dad is the true heropon in this story. Rikki is the OG heropon of legend.

Riki's the pretender? Tatsu doesn't even fight
Truth speak.
True heropons are pacifists. Also, delicious.

lol this fucking game
hey let's force you to use a 4th party member who is way underleveled.
What's that? He gets killed within 5 seconds of a battle starting? WHAT'S THAT? YOU GOTTA FIGHT THIS 4 PLAYER BOSS WITH THREE MEMBERS?
Isn't that just fine and dandy. of course I'm gonna have to lower the boss difficulty when one member isn't carrying the weight. And I JUST came from grinding, not gonna do it for another party member I never use.
How about if the game doesn't tell you to use a party member let me use the fourth I have and have that dude still appear in cutscenes. This is straight up idiotic.

If you're in a Cell with a Probe icon, scanning the horizon for a large beam of light will help you out most of the time.
What fight?
Nah,

Guess this is what I get for trying to rush to get my skell. 😅😅

Only some of them will give you items. make sure you have FN115, 118 and 110
They really didn't explain mining all that well, but you just have to wait it out, they will dig it up eventually. You did check if the nodes you planted have White Cometites listed?
Did they mention that you can reuse the nodes and switches them around as much as you want in the manual? I was scared to death of putting the wrong nodes in before I figured it out.
A lot of nooks and cranies in this game you just have to figure it out, but once it clicked, ooh yeah.

Chapter 6 boss/pre boss battle. It was a fight I could have taken in its original level with three party members tbh, but the fight right beforehand is against three big dudes, and then right after with no chance to heal the main baddie appears. I would have beaten the three other dudes easily if they allowed me to bring my own fourth party member that mixes with my party well, but instead not so they force me to bring Lao who is level 15 compared to everyone else being level 23/24. He gets rekt at the start, the game doesn't make it clear which dude I'm targetting so I'm not doing positional damage and I die 2 times in a row against them. Beat them in third but then with no life I got 1-shot by the main boss and press A to get there faster, lowering difficulty without realizing it.

All the enemies you have to fight are leveled 16 - 21. There are caves that are filled with Sword/Dagger Puges that will lead you under all the level 30+ stuff straight to the first destination. If you follow your target marker ball to the next destinations all the enemies you encounter on the way will be correctly leveled.
Riki doesn't talk himself up half as much as Tatsu and is actually pretty damn strong if not one of the more OP characters. His reason for being the 'heropon' is funny too. As far as annoying cute mascot characters go he's fine. Tatsu is everything bad about them but at least Lin screwing with him is fun.
I guess anything beats Chu-Chu, though.

I completely forgot about that ball. Thanks, bro.
Oh shit, yea I remember that one. That fight gave me a huge amount of trouble.

It sometimes helps luring one enemy out of the group at a time. Use a ranged attack, run, and your team will follow. If you're lucky, that enemy will follow without gaining too much attention.
If you've been doing that, nvm.

Quick questions.
Where do you change characters appearance? Post chapter 5 of course.
Are normal missions infinite or is there a finite number?
Mining is super confusing. Do you get probes back if you change probes? If you keep changing do you run out then?
What do the different levels of probes mean?
I dont get how to link em either.

It's silly because by themselves and if they allowed you to use your own party it'd be fine enough. Especially if they gave you a break between the two battles. But nope, insta-boss haha
