    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    Finally got around to finishing this. Really enjoyed it overall, much better than XCX. Last couple of chapters I just finished in one sitting, I couldn't stop heh. Only real issues I had were all UI related and a bit too many cutscenes toward the end but overall a really solid RPG.

    If you move your cursor over the Xenoblade 2 icon and press + for options, there should be an update software option there.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    Good time to jump in, patch just hit that adds a couple QoL fixes to the game(namely the map). Not much to say in the way of tips, the combat system will take some time getting used to but it starts to click a little while into the game. Nothing is really missable so I'd say just play the game...

    Hah yeah, it was the same when I got warglaives. Normally didn't bother with BGs but that period of time I ran with a couple healers and just destroyed people.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    Yeah I run past shit too. From sidequests/merc missions I could easily give my party another 10-12 levels, but I want to keep them were they are at now for story stuff. Getting Mythra set up as a crit build helps alot. She and Rex have passives that boost the party gauge whenever you crit...

    I would say it's better than FFXV but I really hated that game.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    Some of the rare blades are from quests or just playing through the story. KOS MOS is a random pull, just have to get lucky. Without going into spoilers, try and not bond blades on Rex.

    Yeah I dropped it a few weeks ago, I couldn't take the story or the dumb enemy soldiers who just stand there and do nothing. Or that pink haired annoying shit kid.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    It's a pretty solid JRPG, if you are into the genre and own a Switch I don't see why not. There is a patch on Friday to help with the map being basically useless.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    When you salvage, you get a bunch of shit you can turn into a set that will sell for alot at the salvage merchant(the one with the scale over his head). If you have the blades that have salvage mastery as a skill, you should easily turn a profit on each cylinder. The normal cylinders kinda...

    Mix it up with some sidequests or run around and explore the world a bit, can find some interesting things.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    Another tip: if you haven't been, salvage. You make stupid amounts of money when you 5 star a region, like easily millions of gold in a mater of an hour or two. It's also the best way to 5 star every region, just use the silver cylinders when you start than upgrade to the gold ones when you...

    This was a obviously worse movie imo.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Just got back, I'm legit baffled as to how this is getting good reviews from critics. Jumbled mess of a movie with what might be one of the most unintentionally funny moments in movie history. 6/10, at best.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It means it adjusts the resolution on the fly. Not defending it or anything, I do agree Switch is underpowered for what it is(yes I know it's handheld but still). Could easily see a Switch Pro hit 2019.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Some areas in Xeno 2 look rough, I'm pretty sure they are using a dynamic resolution thing for areas like Torigoth.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    I'm a little ways into chapter 5 now and I still can't put this down. It's really reminding me of an old PS1/PS2 JRPG; towns feel alive and are distinct, and the sidequests have actual characters and meaning behind them. The bankable exp idea is great as I can do all these sidequests and not...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I mean, Switch has the highest resolution screen out of the handhelds right now, it's just that not every game runs at native res on it. I'd say go 3DS since it has a huge library but buying a 240p handheld in 2017 seems like a bad idea. Can't recommend the Vita at all, it's basically for...

    Yeah I think I grew out of Persona games, I couldn't get into P5 at all. The highschool sim stuff just really wears on me, combat felt on the easy side(esp. if you got the jump on an enemy). It didn't feel like a bad game or anything, just not for me anymore.

    Yeah might try LT after seeing the actual numbers. Will wait till later in the league though as apparently Mathil is making it his starting build.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    So this was pretty cool: apparently every rare blade has a Heart-to-Heart which gives it's own event. I did one of these and got another event to spawn in Torigoth that gave a new sidequest. Really nice touch.

    Yeah there isn't a ton of mundane MMO kill/collect quests like there was in XCX.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    I found a couple more in Gormott when I started chapter 4; they are out in the Upper Right area, kinda hidden. One is to climb up the waterfall or something and save a girl. I think the other one started in the Nopon town.

    Path of Exile

    That one threshold jewel for skeletons was ~30c last league, so yeah not exactly a good league starter. But yeah, like Vorph I was expecting more buffs to skills. EQ radius buff is nice I guess but wanted some damage added to it. Spectre might be possible, vis mortis probably going to be...

    Oof, that's pretty bad. I haven't even attempted to play this in handheld, the game looks pretty good on my TV. I have a feeling we will see a Switch Pro holiday 2019.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2

    Combat makes sense once fights start taking longer and you can equip more blades to take advantage of the specials system. At the start they explain all this to you but it doesn't matter at that point as stuff dies pretty quickly. At the end of chapter 3 a lot of the systems fell into place...
