Shark titans

That is the link between a Driver and a Blade.  Blades are companion characters of sorts that are bound to the player characters and grant them weapons and arts.  Each character can have 3 Blades bound to them, each bringing 3 arts to combat.  Each Blade also has an elemental special attack with 4 levels of power.

Totally hyped for this ! I like how the game has improved graphically from the first time we saw it !
900p if possible would be great in dock mode.

Man this video looks so much better than the others. I think the most obvious impeovement over the past games aside from the folliage and lighting is probably seen in the town. Textural detail and polygonal density are way up and while pop in still happens with certain small details it is less pronounced than in XCX

Do you think so? The character models, art style aside, do look fairly simple graphically but I feel like the environments and background look really good? Idk

edit: the swimming animation looks completely out of place, and Rex's voice acting (especially that 'chaaaaarge' line) isn't very kind to my ears, but other than that this game looks great to me!

I could sit here and list out all the ways it beats comparable PS3 games.  But seeing as how I have done that many times and it never seems to make a difference, I'll just say...

Nope.

Ehhh, I really only feel like the Titans are really detailed backgrounds. The rest of it seesm fairly simplistic. 

Well considering this still looks worse than XCX to me ....

I'm sure it's "technically" more efficient than a PS3 game, then again PS3 is from 2006 and developers optimized the shit out of many of it's games. They could probably make a game look as good as XC2, honestly

I take issue with calling it XBC2 as well.... had me thinking this would be some weird new Xbox thingy.

Honestly didnt think it would be a Xenoblade thread when I opened it, it was a "whats this?" type of deal.

I don't think even Microsoft would name a console Xbox Chapter 2 or something.
That is almost WiiU levels of stupid, almost.

How about:
High Quality Xenoblade 2 Footage

It could also be down to resolution.... its probably running a low resolution (when docked).

Could just be because its not final build though.
