Xenoblade Chronicles X

[TR0N]

I am stuck on a lin affinity mission "the repair job", I've explored like crazy and can't find any of the items requested, and the follow orb does not send me to any specific spot :/

I will be playing it more and more over the next few days, as time away from work increases


Update:


After four 30 min to 1 hour play sessions later, I have not completed "The Repair Job" and I believe this is a notorious quest, if the reviews I've recently started reading and watching are any indicator. All of the reviews say how "some quests require you to fetch collectibles, which aren't indicated as to how except for the continent they're on" which is my exact blockage right now.


I am going to keep at it, because it's still fun to grind and explore, but I am certainly blocked by this quest still, and probably will be for the rest of the year :/

I was stuck on that quest for awhile.Then i check the index and i found out what enemy drop the item i was looking for it didn't take long to complete the mission either.Often,basic mission or affinity there are just mostly fetch quest for npc like in the original.I'm in the middle of having to completing a affinity mission to unlock the game next chapter.

Am I the only one who is hopelessly addicted to this game? I can't remember a time where I got this obsessed with a game before. I have almost 35 hours into it, and just hit level 25. I haven't gotten my scale yet, but hope I get the quest soon.

I'd love to hear some spoiler free updates to people's openions. This one is a slow burn for me, with the enjoyment only increasing as I put more time in.

I've uploaded a whole slew of gameplay hours onto our youtube channel if anyone is interested in checking out our progress...

IT'S SO HUGE!

Sounds and looks awesome! Sucks to be backlogged. :/ I loved Xenogears and bought the first 2 Xenosaga PS2 titles, but those are on the backlog and I need to pick up the third one as well some time.

I also loved the original Xenogears so much, but really did not care for Xenosaga. I skipped 2 and 3, and picked up Xenoblade Chronicles on wii and adored it. I think these games very barely relate to gears/saga, they hardly relate to each other outside of the similarities in the anecdotal race robots and combat system.

I would highly recommend picking Chronicles X up if you don't care for a story and want to see what the combat and world are all about, and if you enjoy it go back to the original. I think the original is the better game, but the graphical presentation and refined combat of Chronicles makes it almost an easier entry point than the first one, which has gritty graphics in comparison due to platform differences - I certainly enjoy the first game's art design as much if not more.

Join us sir! Plenty of room on this tiny bandwagon!

Excellent, persuasive pitch!

This being,tetsuya takahashi latest one it's worth checking out if you enjoyed the last one for the wii.

Well on Friday night I got my first skell, and apparently have over built my wallet expecting to not be afford to buy a skell, and ended up having enough money to buy one of each skell and try them all out.

My favorite is the most exspensive light weight frame - the attack with the sword seams to one hit most monsters that are not huge, or are lower level than me.

Getting my skell did what most reviews has said, and set fourth a new era of addiction to this game. Being able to quickly escape combat by driving away - and the increased jump range - has encouraged me to explore and reveal most of the first 3 continents.

The added damage I do makes me try my hand at various higher level beings, and it's crazy how much more I can take on. I took out a level 50 mob while I was still 34 yesterday - it was mind blowing.

I've been putting lower level characters in my party and grinding them up to level 30 to allow them to use skells, but it's so fast to level them up with the power of the skells that it now feels easy to get characters to a powerful state fast.

This is the game that just keeps on giving, 60 hours in now, easily the most I've played a wii u game and probably the most I've put into a current generation game. What a blast, thanks  Monolith and Nintendo for giving us this experience

Half way point for me.Completed chapter 8 recently and the mission to get the flight module,reached areas that i couldn't before.It seems light skell use less fuel but weaker defense.Heavy skells better defense but use more fuel instead.This point in the game for me the difficulty really ramps up.I changed class recently,try a different attack for a change.

Finally picked this up today for $40 from someone on Craigslist.  Can't wait to get home and finally check it out.  There goes my February spare time (at least!)

That's a steal for this game. This is in the top 20 lifetime "most played" list - it's draining my free time every day - and I am loving it still. Just finished mission 8 last night, and the fun keeps rolling.

Yea I see what you guys were saying about the small text!  We wanted 1080p games, and now we've got em, fine print and all!  It's really not too bad though, but there is a lot to take in.  It will take me a while to really get comfortable with all the numbers/bars/icons/etc.

I didn't get to spend much time last night with it, but I agree it does strongly resemble Star Ocean.  It does give me pause to think that (if true) this game is bigger than Fallout 4 and Witcher 3 combined (I just finished FO4 and it took me months to finish).  I'm worried I might get burned out.  Such a timesink and I know I'll never see a lot of the content even if I put in 200 hours.

To make matters worse this game is 720p, just poorly designed UI - must look fine while sitting at a desk but from a couch it sucks.

I am at 80 hrs (20 has to be from idle, I fall asleep playing this game every night, and have left it on while cooking dinner etc often) and just hit 8/12 on the missions, I can imagine I'll hit at least 120 if I finish this game, if not 200. Fun, but certainly a time sink
