| osed125 said: People are focusing waaaay too much on graphics and are ignoring the most important thing...story and gameplay. The story sounds really promising, the setting itself is pretty awesome from what I understand. I however do not like the main character being silent, but it probably won't affect the story much (if at all). And the Nopons are back!!! best news ever!!! For the gameplay, a lot of interesting things to talk about. First, thank god for the inclusion of knowing where you are facing an enemy (front, side or back), that was a small annoyance in Xenoblade because you sometimes thought you were behind the enemy but you hit the side instead, much needed improvement. The addition of what it looks like a "double cooldown" (for greater power and special effects) sounds interesting, this will add a whole new level of strategy. And what it looks like to be biggest thing is the inclusion of TP; it seems like TP will be used for arts (along side cooldowns) and some other stuff like reviving characters (basically replacing the party gauge from Xenoblade). |
In the fact sheet for the game, as well as on Nintendo's official E3 site, it says you can customize the main character (as they showed) including the voice. In the gameplay snippet they showed in February, the "main" character was clearly speaking his attack names (Burning Sword, etc.). I wouldn't assume that it will be a silent protagonist just yet. :)
FEATURES:
- Riding and controlling a weaponized mech, players can explore every inch of the massive open world displayed in gorgeous high-definition graphics. The world is filled with strange and imaginative creatures, from small bugs to giant dinosaurs.
- As characters improve in different classes, they will learn new combat and defensive skills, or Arts. Players can customize the Arts palette as their characters learn new Arts. All Arts have a “recast" time – once cast, the player must wait out a “cooldown" period before that Art can be used again.
- Players can customize everything about the main character's appearance, including gender, shapes, height, skin color, voice and tattoos.
