Xenoblade X import videos/streams thread

I find it funny and hypocrite that the outrage goes against the option and not against the streamer that decided to use that costume on a 13 years old girl. Because the costume is not customized for Lyn, is generic and available for all the character. Of course, it's an oversight that it can be used for Lyn in the same context.

I hope NoA will decide to postpone the game to 2016 in order to take out every bit of skin showed in this game to comply with the views of those that would rather punish a clothes manufacturer for an unfortunate design than a pervert that would expose that outfit on a child in a sexual context.

I find it a bit strange that some people are outraged about swimsuits but are entertained by gore. I can't wrap my head around it. You wouldn't catch me enjoying Mortal Combat, for example, but I wasn't the least bit offended by any outfit in Xenoblade. Maybe you could say that I prefer seeing the human body depicted intact, even if scantily clad, rather than as chunks of bloodied projectile meat.

And yes, it's related when you are moralizing about videogame content. You dont get to unilaterally declare your sacred cows off limits.
 
I saw a cutscene on a stream confirming mine, so I'm pretty sure it's real. It seems to be a fairly early spoiler too, so not a massive game changing twist or anything.
 
It's obvious that Lyn
is a robot or something
. But that still doesn't excuse the fact that she's portrayed as an almost pre-pubescent child.

The fact that people here are salivating over wanting to strap her up in a leather string is just.......

But hey, nothing really surprises me anymore after that Rambo twitch guy :/

Please get out. It just has to stop that games get censored in any fucking way. Even it means that the developer gives you the chance to dress your characters up like this. You just want the option removed because you would get the urges to dress her up like this once right? (J/K before you start insulting me) Just let it be and nobody would give a shit.
 
I'm still not sold on the Main Character thing tbh.


I just don't really see the point. If Elma is the MC and is the one experiencing character growth, then I'd rather just "play" as her.

I just customization is cool, but eh. It just seems like a spectator from what I've seen. It makes cutscenes less...real.

Is it really confirmed that she is the "real" main character? I would actually really like that.

The more involved (graphically and story...ly) cut scenes become, the more silent protagonist feel like they're not really there. There's nothing wrong with silent protags (TTYD4life) but I guess for the online stuff this was necessary.
 
The spoiler tags in Gabe3208's post are fucking terrible, you can pretty much deduce what's under them using context clues.

This thread is awful, bye.

Or they...just equip them straps because they have better stats for the moment?

IDK if that's true, I'm just saying. I had to have Sharla in some...outfit for a while because it had the best stats during that part of the game. Some of you people really are blowing this out of proportions way too much. :lol
 
Just saying, if this game gets censored I will probably not buy it. So tired of seeing all the fake outrage over inconsequential nonsense and calls for censorship.

Lol, if there's one thing life experience has taught me, it's that the only people that have an urge for any of this are those that (1) get no pussy in real life, and (2) are virgins. Neither of which apply to myself, and I'm sure doesn't apply to you either, but I'm guiding you down the right path to where you should be suggesting your comments to.

Censoring is bad, I agree. But when it comes to customs within a country, I think they should be respected and thusly handled accordingly. NA is VERY violent tolerant, so guess what, show all the blood, guts, and gore you want. Japan's legal age of sexual consent is 13, so guess what, show all the under-age sexual natured content you want there. But that's not part of our countries values, and those that don't agree, can move to Japan and take their beliefs with them.
 
What the hell happened in here?

Meanwhile in relevance land, do any of our friends with the game have early on impressions on the game?

Can't help but feel Team America wants to impose its values everywhere.
If anything, the EU is VERY sex tolerant as well.
 
I'm just glad everyone is getting their feelings out here and then we can have a civil, friendly, happy OT.

*sadface*

Care to fill me in on what the controversy was? I looked through it and all I saw was armor and censorship discussions... I think I can put two and two together, but why did this blow up into like 20 pages since last night?

Let's see the bright side : we got over the arguments about the faces, downgrade and the not last gen graphics xD

We might be able to live through this too.
 
Hopefully we get Japanese voice DLC if there's not enough space on the disc for dual audio.

Yeah, definitely rooting for this too.

Just saying, if this game gets censored I will probably not buy it. So tired of seeing all the fake outrage over inconsequential nonsense and calls for censorship.

I will not buy it either, I don't have Wii U yet so I don't have that much investment in this yet and if they really show that they are that insecure for western markets to censor this I will not buy it just to stand by my principles. The line has to be drawn somewhere and people will hurt their feelings for anything, if they keep listening to them the censorship will never end, the choice is already given to the player whether wear it or not and that is enough.

yeah, those fukin americans not wanting to have sexualized children in games. always trying to impose "morals" and shit on everyone lol



dear god, can you guys please stop shitposting? it's totally offtopic and you're completely derailing the thread.

Seriously who cares? People here just talk about it like its shoehorned into their faces. You even have to search and customize for it. The people that really want to do this (like in many other games) are at fault. Just let the game be and like the developers intended it to be. Just sayin and changing things like these are reasons for more delays and I dont need delays because some stupid time wasters are posting shit and get mad about literally nothing. Nobody gets hurt and I take this rather than leaking brains like in Mortal Kombat (where I dont get the option)

We my be able to go through this too.

I think I liked those better though lol

It was about that armor on an underage girl and then the censorship thing came up and now people are getting mad about spoilers in spoiler tags.

Thread title "Xenoblade X import videos/streams thread". Those videos/streams reveal a character with questionable design. How is this derailing the thread exactly? Guess you can always PM a mod if you think something is not right here.
 
To assuage any fears, I'm pretty sure the spoiler Mendrox posted about Lynn is a misconception as I saw the same pictures (and the cutscene when it was on stream). So I don't think there's any twist about her that happens in the first dozen hours of gameplay or so that people have reached so far.
 
So this thread is about some kind of game like thing, right? Are there any impressions from players yet? I saw one poster talk about how they'd finished chapter 4 but if they had any impressions they were buried under whatever the hell is going on here.

Spoilers that are easily guessed when taken into context. Yeah, I understand it's an early import thread, but some people are here for impressions, music, or information concerning gameplay. I'm not too upset, but I can see it being worse for others.

Now the spoiler people are freaking out about might not even be a spoiler. :D

Those people could've waited for the import OT where stuff like that belongs and may be presented in a safer manner :P
 
Anyway, guys, if it's anything like the first Xenoblade, you won't see skin for long.

Nearing the end of the game each characters will be probably be covered in high-tech heavy armors with spikes and tribals everywhere or something like that.

I'm loving the Sollocat stream so far, there seems to be SO MUCH shit to do in NLA.
 
So I know your avatar can be recruited for the game, but if you erase your save will your old avatar still be out there for others to enjoy, or does it default to the new one.

Basically I want to know if I can create a bunch of folks and throw them out there. I'm gonna spend a lot of time in character creation.

bye then, nobody will miss you

I'd think your character is only out there if you're online because you have to get it "back" afterwards somehow with the XP it gained.

You're missing the point. Some people do not consider a teenager in a swimsuit to be sexualization especially when the whole cast is able to wear those outfits. In some cultures a woman's hair is sexual so they have to cover it or be considered immodest and in others (like some indigenous Americans before genocide) they were usually bare chested. So what some people think is too much may not really apply everywhere.

Anyway, I'm done with this because I'm only helping to derail by responding.
 
"Later this year" doesn't sound like Summer. I'm guessing Fall or at the very least Winter(which I hope to god not this late).

Here's the thing though. If it was a Fall release (which I'd gather they know by now) they would say (at least I would hope they would) "This Fall" or even "This Holiday or This Winter". They've done that in the past. So I'm still hoping out for a June, July, or even early August release. Not going to put money down on it but the wording is at least allowing me to think in this direction.
