I'm a bit disappointed with the heart to hearts in this. I quite liked having to unlock them in XC1 and XCX but in this they're just there and many of them don't really offer you anything new. I've had some fun ones like Wulfric in Fonsett but very very few generally. I might be a little frustrated because I just spent ages (chapter 8) passing tests in Land of Morytha and then all I got out of it was Zeke, Rex and Nia having a chat about the city and wondering if anyone lived there even though Jin has told us that they definitely did. quote:Speaking of development, is it possible to get the deed for Cafe Lutino after it moves to Lefteria? I thought I had done all the merc missions, but I'm missing a deed for that shop. The only one I've seen for there is called Wagon Train. I'd sent 90k to Leftheria ages ago though so perhaps I did do the quest. Which it lets you do even when the loving place isn't IN Lefteria and makes you search for ages for this mystery cafe.

They're now basically skits from the Tales series, and the rare blades getting in on the action is also brilliant. In my 80 hours of XC1 I think I viewed like three h2hs. Not having to unlock them beyond having the right party members is great imo.

The reward is friendship e: also if you were at the place I think you were then you missed a gold chest that has (I think) a nopon dubloon in it up there. IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 15:41 on Jan 10, 2018 |

There is a sidequest in argentum on one of the top inside decks that becomes available late in the story that asks you to find them all. I haven't finished it yet but apparently you also have to spend 1 million g to finish the quest.

Another part of the game that's just...weird. Bad design. I'm glad that I can get them when I don't have the quest yet but it'd be nice if it gave me an idea what it was for. "Someone in Argentum might like this" or something. quote:There is a sidequest in argentum on one of the top inside decks that becomes available late in the story that asks you to find them all.

no, it's a different sidequest that's inside Argentum but in the upper area. There's a nopon next to a treasure chest and you need all the doubloons to open it paying the 1 million G wasn't a big deal because I'd just purged my accessories so I had over 3 mil by then

Amppelix posted:Real idiots like me do the quest regardless, not because of the reward, but because it is there. To be honest I do too but if it's extremely annoying I won't bother. And collecting those dubloons does seem pretty annoying. I was more asking because it'd be nice if at least once a quest that's really hard gave something really good, but Xenoblade doesn't seem interested in that sort of thing. Like if the super hard quest at the top of Argentum that's done over lots of different quests gave a nopon themed blade, maybe. It's me wishing blades all came from quests.

Speaking of stuff found up high in Argentum, there's a locked door at the very tippy top of the place. I even have a sidequest to go check it out. Where is the key to the door? I don't know why I bother with all these Lockpicking Blades if I still need to hunt down a stupid key to unlock a door.

Anecdotes of being super OP aside, doesn't Poppi QTpi having 6 skill slots make her flat-out objectively better than "regular" blades, which can only have 3 skills? I guess it's balanced somewhat by base Poppi having (IIRC) just 2, but I think that all total Tora can still put more skills to use.

I'm getting close to the end of the main story now, and I really don't want it to end. It's a good thing there's so much post game content, I'm personally nowhere near done no matter what the game says.  Have they said anything about the DLC yet? the 'new quests' are supposed to be this month.edit: Getting all the forestry you need for QTpi is obnoxious THE FUCKING MOON fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Jan 10, 2018 |

Rex and Five already have one. Question, should I be going for crit(heal) on healers, or block rate?

Depends, are you putting a healer blade on Rex/Five or using a character exclusively for healing? If you're going for a heal character, go with block because 1/3 of your attack skills are going towards a skill that does no damage, and healing weapons generally have the worst attack skillsets and attack animations. Also on your healer character, make sure you don't have any skills with break on any of their blades because they'll very very often prioritize going for the break as opposed to healing. Slapping a healing character on an attacker means you wanna stick with the critheal. Boreas can heal your whole party when critting, and Ursula heals everyone just by being switched to and knuckles are the most viable healer critheal weapon, and even some attack-based blades like KOSMOS can heal the party with their level 3 special, so it's possible to go with a no-healer team with a setup like that

Is there any way to switch audio to Japanese? Honest to god, I never thought I'd ever choose Japanese audio over English, but this dub is absolutely heinous.
