New week, new tweet(s)!

[小島]竹田さんのショートストーリー、面白いなー。開発の初期段階で構築したバックグラウンドを再確認できて、自分達で作っていた身なのにこういう形で改めて読むと凄く新鮮です。

Nothing interesting.

Just Kojima commenting he enjoyed reading the short story they put up the other day.
Apparently they came up with the background story during a very early stage in development so it was refreshing for him to read it again.

ah, I see. This was probably meant as a fake out before the announcement lol

Thanks, finally updating the OP (sorry, bit late, ha ha).

Hmm... tomorrow.... hmmm...

[小島]明日の「戦闘編」映像公開、楽しみですね!実はあの映像でナビゲーションをしているリンやエルマ、タツのモーションって新規で専用に作っているんです。立ち位置とかで微妙に角度を変えたり、なにげにちゃんと考えているんですよ。

Oh god I can't wait to play this. I wish the launch date in EU was really 26th June like amazon preorder shows but I know it won't :/

Hmm... missed that new artwork.

Anyway, no translations for the tweet? Nothing interesting, I take it...

Nothing super exciting, but:

Cheers, added that to the OP! And it may not be "exciting", but it's still pretty interesting. I was actually wondering if they just reused game animations for those.


[Kojima]Looking forward to tomorrow's Battle Presentation! We're actually animating Elma, Lyn, and Tatsu - who will be the presenters - specially and specifically for the video. We thought about this a lot, without meaning to; changing their positions around and so on.
 
I hope they can say if you can bind arts selection (at least moving left/right) to ZR/ZL.

Actually, we still don't know what ZR/ZL will do during battle. When not in battle mode, ZL is targeting and ZR is jump, but during battle L is the targeting bottom.

Yea, I saw StreetsAhead's post for controls during battles.

Did not know about it being used for other things outside of battles. Thanks for that info.

Are there any spoilers for Xenoblade 1? I think the first short story might have had some right?

Nope. The new one is basically a side story from Lyn's perspective after they have established their stay in Planet Mira. Looks to be somewhere before the MC being discovered if we're talking about the time line.

As for the first one, there's really no spoilers from Xenoblade 1 aside from the apparent existence of the legend of a Heropon and his sidekicks (which obviously refers to Riki) from Tatsu's perspective. This is a little before the crash of the NLA and Moby Dick.

Will be watching the video at work tomorrow morning. A good idea is to forward the eventual translated version to others, even those who have no idea about the game.

Well, if people don't mind, here's the link of the translated web site courtesy of awesome Gessenkou from GameFAQs. Links for the short stories are somewhere below the site. Might want to bookmark it in case of side story continuations.

Just saw this. It actually explains a lot on why they made the city the way they did, with the shops and what have you. Trying to make it feel more like home on their long space journey. It's like they saw the debates we were having about it and wanted to respond lol

Lol, I remember that thread.

I feel it also explains why Tatsu looks so tasty to humans. Although aliens seem to find him appetizing as well.

アバター20人+固定サブキャラ、それぞれ特徴的な台詞を考えるのに一苦労、更には音声収録も物凄い量だったのでとても大変でした。…はい、アバターの性格によってソウルボイスの台詞も違うんです。

[Kojima] "combat Guide" Gattsuri introduce been Seoul voice in the video, continue from Xenoblade, will be bustling battle unfolds.

Avatar 20 people + fixed sub character, hard time to think about the characteristic lines, respectively, and further, it was very hard because it was a tremendous amount also voice recording. ... Yes, I'm also different lines of Seoul voice me by the personality of the avatar.

Lazy Google translate job :p
