>hot babes fell in love with you because you were nice to them on the most basic level possible and also the hot babes were part of a marginalised group considered your property
This is so stupid. They were meant to be together. Xenoblade is about determinism and fatalism. But that seems to be too complex topics for a stupid weeb so I can't blame him
>reading and subtext comprehension level: American
Really, I'm ashamed to share the sky and country with these people sometimes
That's not it. Xenoblade is about choice but the point is that Pyra/Mythra chose Rex to be their emotional support pet to help them get to Elysium so they could An Hero properly with their dad's permission
He didn't play the game. Pyra/Mythra were initially using Rex as an escort to their suicide. They eventually fall in love with him over his cheery and never give up personality (which Addam lacked once Mythra went off during Torna: The Golden Country).
Xenoblade is such a shit game it's pathetic.
Every element sucks. >Voice acting
Shit. >Artistic style
Queer anime shit. >Combat
Boring and shit >Story
Literally got aids.
Probably referring to the Praeteorium (church titan). "Most refugees aren't working class" is a valid criticism that the game presents just as reflected in real life refugees asking for more than they need to survive instead of trying to work out of poverty.
>Mor Ardain has actual reasons to colonize Gormott and they aren't just muh nazis. >The refugees living in Indol have spent itral generations living in squalor off of government handouts under a staircase instead of attempting to improve their lives in any way.
Yes, it's right, and both mirror real life situations, this leftarded neet just can't handle nuance, anything that challenges his childish, black and white perception of the world.
I found his XB3 review which went into more detail on this XB2 part. Cut out the XB3 review because who fricking cares they were born 2 weeks before 9/11 your opinion doesn't matter
It's funny to me that lefties worship soviet shit so badly.
If the actual USSR at least held up the values of communism, I might understand. But the government hierarchy was so hilariously corrupt and hypocritical to the point that party members functionally lived like kings (compared to the peasantry at least).
Whether it was head officials raping children for years or Stalin literally having American-made medical equipment over Soviety equivalents, the whole USSR was a mutilation of communist ideas. Why do they cling to it so badly?
There are more failed communist states with more integrity than fricking soviet bloc. Why don't Americans get more invested in the South American and Carribean communist and socialist attempts? Those had a smidge more commitment to their values than Stalinists

Is there a letterbox for games where people can post their bad game opinions or something?

Interesting. I guess I'll open one up
Could be fun to do to help just record my thoughts after I beat shit.
My fricking god, it's like he completely didn't even process the fact that while Zeke is royalty, he gave up that life and has been living the last 10 years of his life out on his own. He's essentially a refugee too, without a country. He has been given a job by Indol, of course, but that was recent and before that he was a wanderer. >Oh no, the refugees need help, they couldn't possibly do anything to escape their current situation. How dare you call them parasites!
They were there for YEARS. Many of them men of working age that likely had skills. They didn't need help, they wanted to fricking mooch. They sit around and complain about the war. They, like many things in the game, are meant to be a reflection of Rex and his attitude. Rex doesn't like the war and avoids it with his job. He tries doing what he can to not contribute to the war effort. He doesn't say the war needs to stop, he doesn't whine about it or the methods used in it. He just doesn't want to be involved in it. This is of course, a childish naive view of the world, as Vandham showed him. Just living, means he is part of the war. Rex matures, while the rest of the world is stagnant. The refugees refuse to try even one thing to better themselves or the world. They simply expect the world to give them what they need to survive. This mirrors the real world. The entire crisis we are facing is groups of people not wanting to admit that the problem is their country. They aren't fleeing because they want a better life, or that they have skills that they know another country needs. They just hear that X country has money and will give them money simply for existing. When they are demanded to get jobs, they whine and complain. Saying how oppressive the government of this nation is. Yet they don't move a single muscle to leave. It's a horrible place that hates them, but they don't want to go.

you know, I hadn't considered that angle. I love how rich xb2 and 3 are with their analogies, allegories and metaphors and I'm still finding bits to chew on.
This guy is outright lying. The protagonists don't call out the refugees for being wasteful sloths or parasites, but that they're ungrateful for the charity they've been given and that even after 10 years fail to see the whole picture of their situation and instead cast all the blame on blades, disregarding the blades as people in the process. Not to mention the "royalty" who dropped the quip was exiled from his homeland and had to pull himself by the bootstraps until his life was saved by Amalthus, upon which he entered into his servitude as thanks.
The issue with them isn't whether they're garbage or not, that's an objective analysis that's done once and then you forget about it, because you're impartial.
The issue is that you hate the game or product because it brushes up against your sensibilities for . . . personal reasons. That's the real issue. So my guess is, looking at you, you're gonna keep seething about some 5? 6? year old video game made for the frick of it, because you have issues.
Nobody makes threads about twilight anymore because nobody cares that women got wish fulfilment from the series 10 years ago. But God fricking forbid some dudes enjoy that same wish fulfilment because that would be very bad indeed.
C'mon, you say this like people didn't shit on Twilight for years on end between the books, movies, and porno fanfic made multimedia empire. You just got your wish-fulfillment orgy last year, of course people are still going to bring up why it's cringe in your super-cereal story driven setting. It wasn't that long ago. You also got DLC this year acknowledging it too.
If you genuinely like the IP, take the licks as they come and stop being a b***h.

they're literally the israeli stereotype. Now I, personally, think that's funny as frick. It's most prevalent in 3 when the nopon are literally playing both sides and the big bad evil guys aren't allowed to attack them. It's a gateway into an uninformed player finding more about israelites running the world and shit. The game is banned in Israel.
I've never once read some random person's review for a video game. I only ever see these reviews in screenshot form on this site. Who out there actually reads random people's reviews for games?
Xenoblade fans, especially on Ganker, have this weird perpetual victim narrative they need to push. Thus rather than enjoying the game, they take joy in ensuring themselves that they're so much better than the people who didn't like it for whatever reason.
Bad reviews don't bother me. What bothers me are anons who can't stop talking about youtubers, and those who link their own reviews and ask >was he right
even though "he" is actually OP.
But isn’t the thing that Pyra and Mythra never got awakened since Addam sank the ship? They gave their only chance in 500 years to the first person they see because their desperate to die
I hate to agree with you.
Because i want to dislike the game, but i genuinely cannot call its last act anything other than kino. >I won't let this world burn a second time
God fricking dammit
It's like a game where for the first 5-6 chapters, they keep introducing more and more plot threads and you think "well this can't end as anything other than a fricking mess with loose threads and outright plot holes"
But then they start to coalesce and by the last two chapters, you're looking at one of the most beautifully construct knots in the world and you're agape because you want to go through the beautiful mess again it helps that NG+ in XB2 is fricking killer
I don't like Rex but it's sort of wrong, Rex can be constituted as the "ideal person" someone who is deterministic towards his goals and helpful to others achieving theirs on his way. Hes like a Gary Stu.
>Xeno3 ebtter than Xeno2
Wat? Also, DotNW is bad, but it doesn't deserve that low score. Tales games worse than DotNW: >Eternia >Hearts >Innocence >Zestiria >Berseria >Arise
Backloggd has this weird Troon/leftoid mob that makes the worst reviews you'll ever read and they all pat each other on the back and like each other to get to the top of the page. There are even users who show their dislike for these in a passive aggressive way. Some are backer and I have even seen that they report reviews that they do not like en masse.
idk if anyone else noticed what I'm talking about, or is it just me
Is this franchise even that good? Slogging through DE atm and so far >autoplay shitter >soulless, mostly empty open world >fetch quests
Its not really making a good impression
Xenoblade isn't for everyone.
Also, do NOT do side quests unless you're bored and playing in handheld on a train or something
literally exploring empty space is more interesting than XB1 side quests*
I'd rather AssCreed Unity have just been about you playing as literally Napoleon Based-aparte and taking over Europe with a mix of action and Total-War style gameplay
Spider-man has always been pro cops though
Like, I think these people need to look to a different super hero if they want someone who is critical of law enforcement agencies
ACgay, explain yourself on why are you still here? You can clearly go to resetera and meet people just like you there, but instead you stay in a place where everyone hates you, especially being here for years. Why?
He's obsessed with moviegames for some reason because he secretly loves them, he literally got into a heated argument about FFX's story one thread despite claiming to hate cutscenes and saying he skips all of them. I genuinely don't get him, if he actually hated cutscenes as much as he did he would just fricking not even give two fricks about games that have them, the amount of effort he's put into shitposting about them for OVER A DECADE shows that they must live rent free in his head or he just loves them and is desperately trying to be seen as cool for not liking them.
Plus if he really hated them so much that he wants them removed from all video games, why is he wasting time trying to convince other anonymous users on a fricking mongolian basket-weaving forum instead of posting in more popular places or frick, why not attempt to make videos to explain why they're bad. That way his horrid opinions would at least be towards something productive instead of him making the same arguments over and over every thread. He has to have some genuine form of autism to spamming the same shit he's done for a decade without any breaks.
The ultimate irony is that his shitposting has probably only made people more willing to defend moviegames because it's easy enough to just call all of his points disingenuous due to his posts obviously being bait (but now that I said this he's going to completely change his tone like he always does and pretend he's reasonable and it's OTHER shitposters that are at fault for why he's a baiting shitposter himself)
My viewpoint isn't exactly complex. I love vidya games, and I want to play them. I like discussing why I like to play them. It's fun dissecting what makes a game fun.
Hate me if you will, I'll always care about the gameplay first.
There you go, right on cue. It's hilarious how you try and paint yourself as the most reasonable person on the board who dindu nuffin when you shitpost constantly about games you haven't played or you just bait with the same webms over and over again so you can go into the same arguments you've made for 10 years over and over again where everyone rightfully calls you a moron.
You can't even just admit you're a baiting shitposter, if you did that I'd at least have more respect, instead you have to try and pretend you actually care about the quality of discussion here when you clearly don't.
>There you go, right on cue. It's hilarious how you try and paint yourself as the most reasonable person on the board who dindu nuffin when you shitpost constantly about games
When was the last time I used an insult or called someone a tendie or a troony or a homosexual or a weeb? Do I not try to initiate good faith discussion?
>It's fun dissecting what makes a game fun.
homie, you're full of shit. You have never done that before. Every argument coming from you is about the cutscenes and not the game.
If you want, I can link you to some criticism I made regarding Xenoblade's gameplay.

When did I imply otherwise? Infact the post specifically calls it a non-turn based semi-action
RPG?
>But that's not criticism, that's a suggestion on a combat that you want to be similar to another game.
Based on the critique that Xenoblade doesn't take advantage of being non-turn based, since the game boils down to just waiting for cooldowns anyway. It's not like you even use the environment in creative ways.

That's a new thing I notice shitposters are doing now. Once they get called out, they start to pretending to be someone else or claimed that the person who called them out is delusional.
He’s right but who cares you know what I do when I see xb2 Black folk talking and cooming? I filter them. I also don’t go to websites and read shitty one paragraph reviews that hinges on shitting on the homosexual fanbases terrible taste in writing just to knock the game.
I agree with some of the complaints about P5's story and writing. It's sort of my issue with FFXVI too. If you want to evoke real world issues for drama and weight and gravitas, I expect some thought-out answers
I never like anime. I mean, I can play anime games, I have no problem with that, but every anime ''show'' (or whatever the term is, inb4 some autist attacks me for not using the proper term) with more than 10 episodes is basically spanish-japanese cartoony soap opera.
I watch movies. I don't watch anime. I'm sorry if that's triggering you for some unknown reason. (I'm lying, it's actually funny. There isn't a single normal person who watches anime.)
Toxic Masculinity: Macho Man Randy Savage, men have to prove their worth to eachother as gentlemen.
The Masculinity that ~~*they*~~ are trying to normalize: You have to understand eachother's feelings, you're not allowed to puff your chest out with confidence and must never try to show up another male.
tl;dr:
Toxic Masculinity: Boys Club, we're so cool and against women being above us.
"Normal" Masculinity: "Please share your feelings with me and I'll respect you in kind" "Don't feel embarrassed to express your emotions" Basically become more women-like.
I feel like a mix of both would be "true" masculinity
Basically being able to show your emotions and show yourself as vulnerable, while also showing the pride and confidence, people on twitter and Ganker talk about
Y'know, the actual real shit you people would see if you went outside and talked to people
Eh I wouldn't say showing vulnerability and emotions is necessary to approach regular people with. You can still enjoy a good conversation without going out of your way to express all of your self all of the time. It really depends on the time and place of things.
To be fair, even though I hate at least half of you gays on principle, only the most terminally online leftists talk or dissect like this. They're as pretentious to me as they are to you. I despise moral grandstanding.
Xenoblade threads are some of the worst threads on Ganker, how does a JRPG attract so much schizo shitposting and inter fanbase tribalism over what game's the best.
hes right. Xenoblade is shit.
literally and objectively correct
>hot babes fell in love with you because you were nice to them on the most basic level possible and also the hot babes were part of a marginalised group considered your property
What did he mean by this?
he means they're islamic women but white.
It's the plot to 9 out of 10 harem animes.
This is so stupid. They were meant to be together. Xenoblade is about determinism and fatalism. But that seems to be too complex topics for a stupid weeb so I can't blame him
>reading and subtext comprehension level: American

It's funny how people addicted to politics tend to have some of the worst understanding of political structures and motivations and tactics outright.

XB2 has many issues when taken piece-meal but I think, holistically, it comes together in a way that overcomes most of its myriad of minute issues
Except Field Skills
Frick Field Skills
I hate to agree with you.
Because i want to dislike the game, but i genuinely cannot call its last act anything other than kino.
>I won't let this world burn a second time
God fricking dammit
It's like a game where for the first 5-6 chapters, they keep introducing more and more plot threads and you think "well this can't end as anything other than a fricking mess with loose threads and outright plot holes"
But then they start to coalesce and by the last two chapters, you're looking at one of the most beautifully construct knots in the world and you're agape because you want to go through the beautiful mess again
it helps that NG+ in XB2 is fricking killer
I don't like Rex but it's sort of wrong, Rex can be constituted as the "ideal person" someone who is deterministic towards his goals and helpful to others achieving theirs on his way. Hes like a Gary Stu.
>implying Shulk isn't Gary Stu
>foid
>correct
>because you were nice to them on the most basic level possible
Uh Rex goes way, way beyond that.
2 is worst in the series so yes. Imagine a gatcha xeno game. What were they thinking
>Symphonia
>Masterpiece
Gamecube bab begone
>Xeno3 ebtter than Xeno2
Wat? Also, DotNW is bad, but it doesn't deserve that low score. Tales games worse than DotNW:
>Eternia
>Hearts
>Innocence
>Zestiria
>Berseria
>Arise
I like 2 but 3 is way better
3 is waaaay better than 2 my dude. 2 Needs a huge overhaul on qol changes. World tree is the only redeeming part of the story
Backloggd has this weird Troon/leftoid mob that makes the worst reviews you'll ever read and they all pat each other on the back and like each other to get to the top of the page. There are even users who show their dislike for these in a passive aggressive way. Some are backer and I have even seen that they report reviews that they do not like en masse.
idk if anyone else noticed what I'm talking about, or is it just me
Is this franchise even that good? Slogging through DE atm and so far
>autoplay shitter
>soulless, mostly empty open world
>fetch quests
Its not really making a good impression
No. Drop the game and play Fortnite instead.
Xenoblade isn't for everyone.
Also, do NOT do side quests unless you're bored and playing in handheld on a train or something
literally exploring empty space is more interesting than XB1 side quests*
Homos go away
you guys should stay away from all persona reviews on backloggd
Heh, iirc, there was a list that kept track of all the "review war" games. I'll see if i can find it.
you found it?
NTA but here

>Persona 4 anime is the best show adaption of a video game
>The show is actually really good
>Trannies hate it
not surprised here
>the guy who thinks the french revolution was a good thing
I'd rather AssCreed Unity have just been about you playing as literally Napoleon Based-aparte and taking over Europe with a mix of action and Total-War style gameplay
Spider-man has always been pro cops though
Like, I think these people need to look to a different super hero if they want someone who is critical of law enforcement agencies
>marginalized group
Must be a troony
he is.
I think OP should kill himself
was he based on this?
I guess it's because Quite isn't wearing a burka.
I think this is much more accurate when it comes to criticisms and discussion.
>ACgay
Absolute KEK!
Why are Animal Crossing cucks seething about Xenoblade?
?
AC is short of Annoying c**t, anon.
It's Armored Core. He started from Armored Core threads.
>pic
It's ok if cutscenes are good.
>cutscenes
>good
Are we really pretending ACgay ever had a point? Have we sunk this fricking low?
ACgay, explain yourself on why are you still here? You can clearly go to resetera and meet people just like you there, but instead you stay in a place where everyone hates you, especially being here for years. Why?
>go to resetera, where people hate video games and just want everything to be political propaganda and snoy movies
Yes, just like you.
That doesn't really fit into my MO of "wanting games to be 100% gameplay".
If that's the cased why do you only attack Nintendo threads then? Like the time you did it with Splatoon, a game mainly known for it's gameplay.
>why do you only attack Nintendo threads

He's obsessed with moviegames for some reason because he secretly loves them, he literally got into a heated argument about FFX's story one thread despite claiming to hate cutscenes and saying he skips all of them. I genuinely don't get him, if he actually hated cutscenes as much as he did he would just fricking not even give two fricks about games that have them, the amount of effort he's put into shitposting about them for OVER A DECADE shows that they must live rent free in his head or he just loves them and is desperately trying to be seen as cool for not liking them.
Plus if he really hated them so much that he wants them removed from all video games, why is he wasting time trying to convince other anonymous users on a fricking mongolian basket-weaving forum instead of posting in more popular places or frick, why not attempt to make videos to explain why they're bad. That way his horrid opinions would at least be towards something productive instead of him making the same arguments over and over every thread. He has to have some genuine form of autism to spamming the same shit he's done for a decade without any breaks.
The ultimate irony is that his shitposting has probably only made people more willing to defend moviegames because it's easy enough to just call all of his points disingenuous due to his posts obviously being bait (but now that I said this he's going to completely change his tone like he always does and pretend he's reasonable and it's OTHER shitposters that are at fault for why he's a baiting shitposter himself)
My viewpoint isn't exactly complex. I love vidya games, and I want to play them. I like discussing why I like to play them. It's fun dissecting what makes a game fun.
Hate me if you will, I'll always care about the gameplay first.
VNs also count as video games, anon. This medium isn't limited to shooting monsters.
There you go, right on cue. It's hilarious how you try and paint yourself as the most reasonable person on the board who dindu nuffin when you shitpost constantly about games you haven't played or you just bait with the same webms over and over again so you can go into the same arguments you've made for 10 years over and over again where everyone rightfully calls you a moron.
You can't even just admit you're a baiting shitposter, if you did that I'd at least have more respect, instead you have to try and pretend you actually care about the quality of discussion here when you clearly don't.
>There you go, right on cue. It's hilarious how you try and paint yourself as the most reasonable person on the board who dindu nuffin when you shitpost constantly about games
When was the last time I used an insult or called someone a tendie or a troony or a homosexual or a weeb? Do I not try to initiate good faith discussion?
If you want, I can link you to some criticism I made regarding Xenoblade's gameplay.
https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/640528982/#640592195
>https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/640528982/#640592195
But that's not criticism, that's a suggestion on a combat that you want to be similar to another game. Also, Xenoblade is not turn based.
>Xenoblade is non-turn based
When did I imply otherwise? Infact the post specifically calls it a non-turn based semi-action
RPG?
>But that's not criticism, that's a suggestion on a combat that you want to be similar to another game.
Based on the critique that Xenoblade doesn't take advantage of being non-turn based, since the game boils down to just waiting for cooldowns anyway. It's not like you even use the environment in creative ways.
The game is played as an MMO and even then, each game have it's main mechanic that set them apart.
>The game is played as an MMO
So what's even the point of it being non-turn based? At that point you might as well just turn it into a traditional RPG. Not like it's bringing anything unique to the table.
Now that's a dumb statement. Are you also going to complain about Kingdom Heart and Skyrim for not being turn based due to being heavily action based?
>are you going to complain about Kingdom Hearts
Yes. Overly long boring cinematic QTEs are boring.
>and Skyrim
Falling through map geometry and having the game crash every 5 seconds due to Bethesda incompetence is boring too.
>It's fun dissecting what makes a game fun.
homie, you're full of shit. You have never done that before. Every argument coming from you is about the cutscenes and not the game.
That's a new thing I notice shitposters are doing now. Once they get called out, they start to pretending to be someone else or claimed that the person who called them out is delusional.
>ACgay
>EVER in the right
He’s right but who cares you know what I do when I see xb2 Black folk talking and cooming? I filter them. I also don’t go to websites and read shitty one paragraph reviews that hinges on shitting on the homosexual fanbases terrible taste in writing just to knock the game.
Sounds like Dragon Age Origins, minus the property thing.
I want to think this is a failure of trying to do a quirky review and not someone genuinely this chronicaly online
When it comes to gameplay, Xenoblade is the best JRPG, actually
I sort of wish the big chain order finishers had mini-games like the Blade Specials in 2
This is a real person
Well, story is meh and characters are more of a cardboard cutouts. But I disagree on combat being good, it's quite the opposite.
I agree with some of the complaints about P5's story and writing. It's sort of my issue with FFXVI too. If you want to evoke real world issues for drama and weight and gravitas, I expect some thought-out answers
That's a pretty good review
Rex has a personality, weebs are just salty he's not an edgy brooding loser.
context?
Based. Stopped watching anime because they keep pulling the exact same shit too.
I never like anime. I mean, I can play anime games, I have no problem with that, but every anime ''show'' (or whatever the term is, inb4 some autist attacks me for not using the proper term) with more than 10 episodes is basically spanish-japanese cartoony soap opera.
Watch movies then, dumbass.
I watch movies. I don't watch anime. I'm sorry if that's triggering you for some unknown reason. (I'm lying, it's actually funny. There isn't a single normal person who watches anime.)
Can somebody explain to me what exactly is toxic masculunity? What is normal masculinity?
Toxic Masculinity: Macho Man Randy Savage, men have to prove their worth to eachother as gentlemen.
The Masculinity that ~~*they*~~ are trying to normalize: You have to understand eachother's feelings, you're not allowed to puff your chest out with confidence and must never try to show up another male.
tl;dr:
Toxic Masculinity: Boys Club, we're so cool and against women being above us.
"Normal" Masculinity: "Please share your feelings with me and I'll respect you in kind" "Don't feel embarrassed to express your emotions" Basically become more women-like.
I feel like a mix of both would be "true" masculinity
Basically being able to show your emotions and show yourself as vulnerable, while also showing the pride and confidence, people on twitter and Ganker talk about
Y'know, the actual real shit you people would see if you went outside and talked to people
Eh I wouldn't say showing vulnerability and emotions is necessary to approach regular people with. You can still enjoy a good conversation without going out of your way to express all of your self all of the time. It really depends on the time and place of things.
I didn't mean doing it all the time, i mean being able to without feeling shame on yourself for being "lesser"
im gonna beat my meat for the fourth time today
YOU'RE THE GUY I'M TALKING ABOUT
Rex is probably the worst looking Xeno protag and the gigachad adult version doesn't make him better, because his hair is still ass.
To be fair, even though I hate at least half of you gays on principle, only the most terminally online leftists talk or dissect like this. They're as pretentious to me as they are to you. I despise moral grandstanding.
I think I’m about to jerk off to some r34 of Rex getting cucked is what I’m about to do.
Xenoblade threads are some of the worst threads on Ganker, how does a JRPG attract so much schizo shitposting and inter fanbase tribalism over what game's the best.
Its a tendie only JRPG series
both xenoblade 2 and 3 were bad/mediocre game as frick
only decent games are xenoblade 1 and X
