Xenoblade Chronicles X - Blog Posts
Found a Cross profile template and thought it seemed fun.
Here's the link to the template so you guys can make your own Cross bios.
I beat Xenoblade X DE. I'll get to 100% survey eventually but beating Chapter 13 is good enough for now. Very spoilerly thoughts below.
I'm still not sure how I feel about the new ending. We spent all this time on Mira and then we just have to leave and find another planet because Mira's getting destroyed. All of Mira's mysteries (the auto translation, how the humans are still alive after the Lifehold got wrecked, Lao coming back, why no one can leave, L's people, the presence of a Telethia, J-bodies, probably more I'm forgetting) are just left to never be answered or just "it's because of the Ares" (also they forgot that the Ares is supposed to be a tandem skell). Maybe if this was a proper sequel instead of a bonus chapter they could've done more and gotten around to answering some questions before leaving Mira.
I do really like Volitaris and the final segment where you're searching for your party members and the spears to weaken Void. I think you can just rush to Void without weakening it or getting anyone back (especially if you have the Ares 90 like I did), but I wanted to explore and didn't want to leave anyone behind. It was nice getting to talk to everyone one last time too, I like most of BLADE. Al letting you pilot the Ares was another cool moment, don't know why Lao's ghost was there though (still feels weird knowing he's actually dead, spent a decade thinking he was alive). I'm not sure what's up next for the cast of X, I saw the planet and thought "holy shit it's the planet from Future Redeemed go fuck yourselves Saga fans the blue light isn't KOS-MOS" but then I saw it had a ring which the FR planet doesn't so I don't think they'll be interacting with anyone from the numbered games universe yet. Sure Al has his connection to the Ares which is powered by the Conduit but it left 2's universe so who knows where that thing is now.
Happy XDE exists though, it's still one of my favorite games despite it's flaws and it's no longer stuck on a whole different console.
Been playing Xenoblade X DE while my computer's busted, having a good time. It's great to be back on Mira, there's a lot of quality of life changes (follow ball works now and changing party members/grinding affinity is a lot easier). Have some screenshots before I go back into the void.
New version of the Skell Flight theme!
Hard to decide if I like this or the original more, they're both good.
Nintendo of America made some tweets about the new characters in XDE. Here's the one about Liesel (the Hraesvelg pilot).
No pronouns specified for them here, I'm willing to bet that Liesel's nonbinary. Tweets about Juniper and A from 3 never used pronouns for them, and we ended up with they/them Juniper and no pronouns "Ontos was meant to stand somewhere between" A. And posts about other characters do use gendered pronouns (like Neilnail below), it's not like they avoid pronouns for everyone.
WAKE UP BLADES NEW XENOBLADE X TRAILER
GANG WAKE UP NEW XENOBLADE X DEFINITIVE EDITION TRAILER
hey xenoblade x fans
do you think if we told the people who like jin from 2 and n from 3 about [REDACTED] that we could convince them to play x, because there's some similarities there
When the idea of a Xenoblade spinoff comes up, it’s usually in the form of a Warriors game. And yeah, that’d be cool and I’d spend 500 hours on it. But I like the idea of a racing game, just because I think there’s potential for cool courses and these characters deserve a chance to just have fun. Anyways Nintendo/Monolith please consider making Xenokart real.
Xenoblade 1:
Vehicles from this game could be modified versions of the mobile artillery and Face Mechon units.
Course Ideas: Tephra Cave, Bionis Leg, Satorl Marsh, Eryth Sea, Alcamoth, Sword Valley, Fallen Arm, Agniritha, Bionis Interior, Memory Space
Xenoblade X:
Skells already have a pseudo car mode, and also regular cars are here. Also time travel cars exist too.
Course Ideas: NLA, Talon Rock, Nopon Braidbridge, Divine Roost, around the Yawning Giant, Lake Ciel, the general O’rrh Sim area, White Phosphor Lake, Mount M’gando
Xenoblade 2:
I got nothing for Xenoblade 2 inspired vehicles.
Course Ideas: I guess just the titans, along with the inside of the World Tree and the First Low Orbit Station? I think you should be able to ride on that ring around the planet connected to the First Low Orbit Station too.
Xenoblade 3:
Levnises are the vehicles here.
Course Ideas: Alfeto Valley, Eagus Wilderness, Great Cotte Falls, Maktha Wildwood, the City, Origin
There are probably other good course ideas, but I don’t remember too much of 2′s environments and since areas in 3 are hybrids of areas from 1 and 2 I don’t want to repeat things too much. Expecting X content is also unrealistic but I’m biased and the environments are cool and unique. If you guys have ideas for courses, vehicles, character rosters, or whatever, feel free to share them.
HIT THAT YOINKY SPLOINKY, PLEASE
Compilation of Xenoblade “X, hit that yoinky sploinky, please!” videos because they’re important pieces of culture. As far as I know there isn’t one for Future Connected, Torna, or any older stuff like Xenogears/Xenosaga. But if you guys do find/make one for those, let me know. I’m just happy X has one, it’s usually left out.
