    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.

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

    Anyone playing this on an original PS4? How did it run?

    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...

    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.

    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...

    Would be fine with an EQ buff, I miss that skill being good.

    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...

    Seems stacking Luck before you use a core crystal ups the chance of getting a rare blade.

    I think if you move the cursor over her affinity tree abilities it says how to unlock each one. Yeah there are a few chests I came across that I can't open, I assume I need another blade to go back and open it. Finished Chapter 2 and yet another pretty cool cutscene. Game definitely animates...

    Got the shittty Dragon helmet. Not sure why this one is rare but it's the dumbest looking hat of all the other choices.

    Played a few hours of XC2 and the cutscenes are insanely good; the chapter 1 ending was epic. Like that could have been the climax to a game or something. Haven't gotten far enough to really judge combat yet but doesn't really seem too different from previous stuff. So far it feels like if...

    Nah I hear ya on ED. I like the build but hate it for single targetting. I mean you can kill shaper or whatever with it but bleh, it feels like shit for that stuff.

    JRPGs

    This may be but I'm consistently annoyed by bad dubs in ports of JRPGs, some are better than others but I usually cringe when the VA clearly is just not hitting the emotion the scene is trying to convey.

    Hmm, haven't heard of Ozark until now either. Will try and get to that soon. Same thing with the Expanse, I keep putting it off some reason.

    Yep for sure, the XC1 is a case of a great dub.

    Yeah that's were the talent of Japanese VA talent is. Alot of dubs I listen to just lack that emotion that trained voice actors from Japan have.

    Biggest reason I'm using the JP audio is that it appears that the lip sycning is matched to that and not the english audio.

    Would love a new bow skill, and for GGG to rebalance how shitty bows feel to level with. Not to say bows are weak or anything atm, I would just like archer characters to be a viable league starter heh.

    Game is sitting at an 85 on metacritic so? Obviously some reviewers aren't going to like the game. Only thing I was really disappointed about in XCX was the story/characters. Adored the first game though

    Will echo what @gshurik said above. Trails games are pretty much all about the story, characters and world building. They are a bit of a "slow burn" but the payoff is worth it. Plus you get that great music Falcom never fails to deliver on. The turn-based combat works well too, lots of nice...

    Picking up Xenoblade Chronicles 2 on Friday myself, really looking forward to it. Also with you on Trails games, the world building and characters are great. Hoping we hear something about a Cold Steel 3 localization soon. Oh, also really enjoyed Ys VIII which came out earlier this year...

    Finding GG swords when you are ready to move past Scaeva can be expensive though.
