Here’s A 30 Minute Look At The Battle System In Xenoblade Chronicles X

You might have already seen it, but there was a Japanese stream for the long-awaited Xenoblade Chronicles X. The stream predominantly showed off the game’s impressive battle system and gave a closer look at some of the huge environments players will encounter when the game launches this year. You can watch the full Xenoblade Chronicles X stream in the video embedded above.

          There are games, it’s just your own funeral for not wanting any of them…

          1. In PAL regions all we’ve had since Smash Bros is Captain Toad. In March we get Mario Party 10 and Mario vs Donkey Kong. That is trash so stop the damage control.

              1. Pikmin 3.
                Super Mario 3D World.
                Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze.
                Bayonetta 2.
                Zelda: WWHD.
                The Wonderful 101.
                Mario Kart 8.
                Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

                    1. And this is why you fail.
                      And I see you haven’t listed a single indie game.
                      Basically all you’ve paid attention to is first party, and that’s entirely YOUR FAULT for not giving stuff outside of first party a chance.

                    2. I’ve got a few indie games but I didn’t list them. I don’t buy consoles to play indies.

                  1. lol my asshurt news. Please tell me how the Wii U being the slowest selling Nintendo console of all time is a good thing? The world has spoken. No one wants the Wii U. You mad?

                    1. Except the 9 million who proudly owns the Wii U, Poserfan. You mad… hypocrite?

                    2. Hypocrite on what you tard? I own a Wii U and if I’m not satisfied with it I go elsewhere for my entertainment. Fanboys like you wouldn’t understand. The difference between you and me is you can bash Sony and I won’t give a shit where as if I say something bad about Nintendo you defend them. Nintendo don’t give a shit about you. Accept and deal with it. You’re defending plastic and it makes you a weirdo.

                    3. Hah, and please do tell us how the sales mean anything when the games for the other systems were mostly overhyped bullshit that only got bought for their graphics…

                      Real gamers own a Wii U to supplement the failures of the dude-bro games everywhere else.

                    4. Yer man the failures of the PS4.
                      I got the Order: 1886 last month.
                      Games I’m getting:
                      Bloodborne.
                      Mortal Kombat X.
                      The Witcher 3.
                      Batman: Arkham Knight.
                      Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
                      Persona 5.
                      Star Wars: Battlefront.

                      I’m not one of those sheep that buy COD and Assassins Creed every year or sports games for that matter.

                      The first half of this year for the Wii U in PAL regions has been an absolute disgrace. I thought paying for online was bad but having no games for half a year is up there as well.

      1. Seriously if all they show add up to 5 hours max and people say they saw everything lol.The game is 300 hour long :D people dont worry,you still didnt see shit!

  1. 8.5/10 because of the face design. Other than that, the game look GORGEOUS, with a complex gameplay for core gamers. Can’t wait!

    1. I dig anime (mostly the darker/serious stuff)- but some things can just get a little TOO anime. Much like western shows or video games, certain faces and voices can just be distracting to certain people. At least the anime tropes aren’t completely over the top.

    2. If you’re referring to the face of the default male character, I agree that he sorta little odd. But (thankfully), there’s character customization, and it actually seems to offer a wide variety of options to choose from. There are videos about it, you should check them out if you haven’t seen them yet. :)

  2. Am getting this day one it’s amazing I love everything about this game and this game shows the hard work the dev team put into it

  3. Dumb haters say all you do was running around…They even improved the faces people complained about.It really seem to be the best jrpg ever made and we still didnt see any online features and very little mech battle.

    What we know is world,music,gameplay,content is all AAA and western developers need to take notes.

    1. The best RPG ever made when you haven’t played a single minute of it… Congratulations, how long have you been a prophet for?

      1. I agree with you but you should notice how he said “It seems to be the best JRPG ever made” he didn’t say it was. Just that it seems its gonna be the best JRPG ever made.

    1. They haven’t talked story in game just small stuff we have no idea how things will turn out all the way through

    2. You’re looking at 300-plus hours of gameplay, noob. Xenoblade Chronicles X will have a storyline with every twist and turn during and after battle scenes. Experience and survival are keys in playing this game.

      1. You need to stop calling people names you little fuck. Monster hunter has hundreds of hours of gameplay too; are you going to try to say that has a fabulous story? Don’t be an idiot.

  5. This game is looking incredible. I only hope that the European release isn’t too far behind the Japanese release. I’ll need all the time I can get between this and Zelda.

  6. I’m sure the graphics will look crisper in 1080/60fps HD. The gameplay and exploration look epic. I will get lost in the Xenoblade X world and totally fucking love it.

    1. Its only 720p, but everything looks crappier through YouTube. Their compression rate is horrible, specially after its stream which also looses quality. In short, it will definitely look nicer at home. :D I didn’t like the first one but I’ll give this one a try.

    1. Languages borrow from one another, all around the world. Japanese, from what I know of it, also borrows from French, Portuguese, Korean and Chinese.

      English borrows from numerous languages, including Japanese (umami, katana, shinobi, etc.) French (café, résumé, etc.), German (dopplegänger, kindergarten, etc.), Italian (pizza, pasta, pepperoni etc.), Spanish (matador, luchador, etc.) and I’m sure dozens of others.

      From the moment cultures have exchanges, words will be borrowed

      1. I think he means why are most the words in Japanese characters but then some are in English using the alphabet. Also, I’m pretty sure Japanese has a word for weapon… So your analogy doesn’t work. English only has one word for pizza, kindergarten, katana, etc. It doesn’t arbitrarily take words from different languages when it already has the word.

  7. I can hardly wait for this one.

    Along with Zelda, Mario Maker, Don’t Starve, Splatoon, Heart Forth Alicia, Hyper Light Drifter, and SMT X Fire Emblem- I’m totally psyched to say the least.

  8. Looks kinda bad to be honest. The enemy AI stays still many times when you attack, and just the combat in general just doesn’t seem very good to me. I was considering picking this up, but I guess I’ll pass. I don’t like the characters either. I guess JRPGs just aren’t for me.

    1. I’m pretty sure that not all the enemies have a cool down time that last that long, but if you didn’t like this battle system don’t give up on JRPG’s, some of them have amazing battle systems Like Bravely Default, or even action based like the ‘Tales of’ series.

    2. There’s no dodging in this game that’s why they don’gt move. Active dodging takes strategy away anyways.

    3. yeah I totally agree. I guess if you are super into games like this it’s understandable why people are so excited. But I am def not one of them. This looks boring as hell. The environment looks pretty decent but monsters and people look very Wii ish. If I hear another fanboy shout how amazing this looks I will scream. It looks barely current gen. I haven’t put much effort into getting into rpg but I did try Fire Emblem Awakening and that seemed good as does BD and Code Steam. Anything other suggestions?

      1. Well this game is really big. Most popular games these days are really short and thus have little content. It’s easier to make games look neat when there isn’t much to work on.

  9. May not get this day one because of money. But I’ll certainly get it!! And also. What happened to Yoshi’s Wooly World and SMT X FE? I honestly think they need to give out more information in directs about there games I still know nothing about Star Fox. ( I don’t even know the damn name of it!) I’m not trying to trash nintendo at all. I just would like to know more about these

  10. My Wind Waker Is Bigger (I.A.B.A.B)

    My head is literally hurting fucking watch this. I’m going to be stuck at the beginning again. Damn it.

      1. My Wind Waker Is Bigger (I.A.B.A.B)

        Yeah at this I suck. At games like smash. Trust me you won’t be near damn disappointed.

        1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

          I’ll only consider you good in Smash if you aren’t a noob, spammer or coward…

              1. My Wind Waker Is Bigger (I.A.B.A.B)

                Lol I can imagine that. They only run when you’re overpowering them. That’s a fucking good sign.

  11. sasori obinna: the puppet master
