Man I'm close to the end and haven't had a crash , I feel lucky . Is there a common trigger for it that ppl have seen? I usually close out of the game from the menu if I'm done for the night instead of just leaving it suspended because I know that makes things worse for some games

For me it usually happened when something triggered, like a cutscene or I fast traveled somewhere. It never happened when I was just out and about killing stuff.

I wonder if I'll revisit this game someday. I kinda rushed the last chapters cause the story revved up and figured I'd go back to complete stuff I left behind but never really got around to it.

I feel like everyone in the game is way less concerned with the fact that (chapter 5)the praetor is malos driver than they should be? Unless I'm misunderstanding Wtf a driver is at this point. Like why would you trust or go near this dude and why isn't he like sorry my slave warrior soulmate is trying to destroy the world

there are some good quests and some bad ones. most of the rare blades have good ones and i liked helping umon get his life in order again idk if you can get that one in ch 5 or 6 tho

Also even if you're over levelled for a quest & its rewards they still give a pretty significant Trust boost to all your equipped blades when you complete them which is worth it imo because leveling that up takes forever

you also get a lot of sp for the character affinity charts and getting the ones that let you cancel blade arts into blade arts and let you instantly use the art on a button at start kick rear end

The last few areas are sweet but I wish there were some more big wide open ones like Uraya near the end . Basically the second half of the game onwards you don't really see any of the MMO-zone style worlds , they're all more linear or dungeon style

Things I like about this game

- qol is the first priority. I like how even in story spots where you have to escape from x area you can fast travel freely

At first it seems that way but the game makes some huge huge qol missteps that cannot be explained in any rational way

Wait until you start doing rare blade sidequests and trying to get more of the blades

Hold on a second... It was my understanding that the sexy dog girl had the biggest, floppiest boobs in the whole game.

That's the rabbit lady iirc. Nim is the sexy dog lady and looks perfectly normal outside of her snout and sonic the hedgehog style glowing feet

Tantal is really cool and the story seems to be getting more focused, I like this. Also the English choral music ftw

Every loving cutscene is so drat slow though lol

Omg you can skip voice lines in menus now. That makes feeding your harem to build trust so much better

same

the problem with the line wasn't the line, it was that it was substantially louder than every other voice in the game and the soldiers said it constantly and also only traveled in groups of 2 or 3

now it just sounds weird

don't forget what? tell me!!

the sound mixing in this game is hosed up like all the heart to hearts and cutscenes start out with audible speaking but the music gets louder and louder and the voices get softer. bizarre

I did Nim's a phonex tale quest today which is one of the most dumb unsatisfying sidequests in any Xenoblade. But then I did some wulfric stuff that was fun and good. He made friends with an old lady.

I abruptly entered a zone that is like a shin megami-lite setting? Not really sure if this is just weird world building or if the games about to drop a cool twist on me
