It is an in-game gatcha, yes. You get Core Crystals of different rarities and when you use them you roll a random Blade, influenced by various things you can do. The game saves when you roll so you can't savescum.

Unlucky7 posted:https://xenobladechronicles2.nintendo.com/story/ Yeah, buy in game as in buy it from a merchant in game with in game gold. There's been absolutely no talk of microtransactions in this game.

^^^^^^ I meant to say that you could buy them in game with in game gold, earlier. Sorry, I was trying not to sound alarmist . I do not doubt that it is entirely in game. I was just surprised, and a bit amused given recent events.

I'm actually cool with the idea of a gacha with no microtransactions tied to it, then it's just a fun thing to do with in-game resources.

Well the idea is with gacha is that you'll be brimming with Blades you can send out on excursion missions and give you items/gold and increase affinity without having to keep using them in your party.

I am not sure how sending someone away repeatedly and telling them to never come near your real friends makes them like you more, but video games.

Just seems like a hook for them to add buying better odds with real money, to me. I hope I'm just being pessimistic

If Xenoblade Chronicles gets a cameo blade, I hope it's Alvis instead of Shulk.

I am not too worried. EDIT: Annnd I just remembered Fire Emblem Fates and the new Animal Crossing. Still, absolutely no one has mentioned any sort of hook for real money transactions, and I do not see the point in being clandestine about it, especially given the recent loot box fiascos.

I'm not a fan of heavy RNG loot systems in single player games. Xenoblade has already shown in two entries how obnoxious things like Rare Collectepedia items are.

Actually I am waiting for the 870Mb Japanese voice-pack DLC to download. Grab it for free on the eShop before you launch, because it looks like it starts straight into a cinematic.

I'd like to say I'll be going out to get my collector's edition tomorrow. What I will be doing instead is staying the gently caress home and not going anywhere near Melbourne with tomorrow's forecast of Complete Shitstorm.Infinitum posted:The subtitles don't match up with the Japanese soundtrack.
