At least you can dispose of scrub tier blades to get idea cores or whatever to boost your Bravery or Justice Idea Cloud Rating but who knows what that even does

It’s weird that there is no autosave in Xenoblade 2 because saving is pretty much instant.

Getting weapon-characters from a gatcha in a singleplayer JRPG sounds unorthodox enough to get me interested in this game. Do the rare ones tend to come with side quests or stories?

They are living beings with feelings you know!" *melts down dozens of Blades in pursuit of a shiny one* FauxLeather posted:Getting weapon-characters from a gatcha in a singleplayer JRPG sounds unorthodox enough to get me interested in this game. Do the rare ones tend to come with side quests or stories? There are ones you get in the main story that have actual plot importance but I'm pretty sure all the randomly acquired ones, generic or rare, have no story to them.

Propaganda Hour posted:Is this that ludonarrative dissonance they keep talking about? *Pulls a Blade with a Texan accent* It would be cool if games actually used more accents or vocal tics (that aren't horribly forced) or even lisps or other speech impediments because those can add a lot to characterization. Though the publishers probably don't want to pay for that.

I'd rather have Ziggy tho even though I don't think Ziggy has ever been good. I just like him the most. I still need to finish XB1 and XBX but I'm sure I'll enjoy XB2 even if the gachapon stuff is a weird way to handle it. Can you end up with multiples of the same blade through the blade creation system thing?

Though the publishers probably don't want to pay for that. I'm guessing Horizon and Until Dawn used similar technology for their facial animation because both games almost hit uncanny valley. All the characters have facial tics and you can see them swallowing or curling their lips or blinking rapidly when nervous it's really cool without being off putting the way LA Noire was.

Do the rare ones tend to come with side quests or stories? There are some uniques that have their own in world sidequests yeah. And every blade in the game levels their affinity through certain goals that may not always be combat oriented (like find certain wood materials, feed it a musical instrument that it likes etc.)

RIP IREM At least the disaster report devs got to get back together to work on more disaster report games, though none have come out yet. I'm sure they'll be good though.

i'm pretty sure the premise of city shrouded in shadow is literally that like, every popular big giant monster robot thing comes together for a big fight including an evangelion and you're just trying not to get killed in the middle of it

That sounds cool as a premise but the immediate problem I see is that there's only so many ways you can actually evade a massive, giant monster. I'm not sure how a game entirely based around that would keep its gameplay fresh. Unless you actually progress to fighting the monsters yourself in the vein of Shadow of the Colossus.

The levelling system in Witcher 3 is such a drag, like, for real. Run into cool monster tracks on the road, starts a quest. Oh, wait, the quest is double my level. Run into an interesting notice about a monster needing killed, speak to the person who put the notice up, hear the story, sounds interesting. Oh, wait, the quest is three times my level. Guess I’ll have to come back in ten hours and try to remember what was going on. Argh!

Anyone got those dated Mighty No. 9 fan-arts from back in 2013? I'm specifically talking about the ones where Mega Man is sad, possibly in jail or even dead but he's not in despair because Beck will carry on his legacy?

Sadly City Shrouded in Shadow is exactly what it sounds like, there's nothing else to the game other than running around and occasionally avoiding an obstacle while cooler stuff goes on in the background.

I mean, that's Disaster Report. There seems to be more character interaction type stuff which is what those games are secretly about. It also makes me want another Attack of the Friday Monsters because mundane setting with weird poo poo is one of my fave aesthetics.

FirstAidKite posted:Some people just wanna get all the things and don't like to find out that they've been locked out of getting all the things due to something completely random, something locked behind a high/tedious ceiling, or something missable that you'd have no reason to go check for in the first place. Late on this, but 'the good ending' is non-canon in Shadow Hearts 1, it makes sense that it's hard to get imo. I'm fine with some minor gameplay bonuses being missable because they don't really impact anything, and if something has an actually good reason to be hard to get I'm fine with it - I think something being hidden adds to a game, makes it more layered - but there are things that go too far in the other direction.
