I'm confused...is there a problem here?

No, I was just agreeing with rol about the last story. But decided it wasn't necessary for this topic. So I edited my post.

:).

Oh, I see

TBH I would have to agree with you anyway. Because TLS is NOT as bad as he says. It's not great, but it's still good. 7.9 is what I would give it.

There is a portable gem crafter. Just do the sidequest for the gem man.

Precisely. It's quite early on (when you can re-build Colony 6), and it's rather easy, so...

I don't see the problem.

Oh I'm past this point. If I go to the Gem crafter in Colony 9, he will give me this sidequest?



Yes, you could do it as soon as a party member retuns to Colony 6 to re-build. More alarming to me is your playtime. The average playtime for where you are, for a 70 hour play, is 26 hours. You are going FAR too fast, and the fact you haven't returned to either Colony 6 to rebuild or Colony 9 to do quests is rather alarming IMO. You'll only struggle if you keep up at this pace I'm afraid, and quests, and areas, will become more and more irrelevant, or even locked off, if you aren't careful...

I'm 35 hours in and I'm definitely not that far yet. >_< But I'm definitely not complaining. :) I like taking my time.

I wouldn't worry. I was just entering Eryth Sea for the first time at 35 hours! Took me just under 100 hours to finish it at that pace. Makes it easy for me to creat percentage completion because of that though!

Second week US sales- 44k!

So we can imagine sales for this week of 55-60k. A good number!

Also, I've now moved into the Factory. Had a bit of difficulty with that last boss, but nothing major. It's the next bits coming up I'm worried about...

Not bad. Not bad at all.

This awesome guy managed to paint the area of Raguel Lake from the artbook on the 3DS application 'Colors 3D!'. And it looks, well...see for yourself...

Ummm...okay, so VGChartz says this:

"Xenoblade Chronicles (Wii) sales are expected to drop to around 20,000 in its third week on sale."

http://www.vgchartz.com/article/250075/usa-preorders-chart-14-april-2012-the-witcher-2/

Seriously?! I hope not, but we'll see. Wait...Did they skip second week sales already? Or are they predicting for this past week?

EDIT: Saw Conegamer's second week sales (unofficial figure?). I guess it was too much to expect this game to sell a ton past its first couple weeks, since it was a GameStop only title. I'm really hoping that's wrong, though.



37 Hours in now, and it keeps getting better.

Things i highly dislike:
Some Animations are lazy, and some facial animations outright suck!
i cant lower the volume for sound effects, meaning that - mot of the time - you cant really enjoy the music over the action taking place. =/

but aside of that, the game is just pure awesomesauce.

 

@Sales: I think LT Sales for Xeno in the US will be around 250-300k, which is a pretty big number for an RPG that isnt named Final Fantasy..

 

Oooh.. look at the time... i need to keep playin', its REYNTIME after all!



I'm a Foreigner, and as such, i am grateful for everyone pointing out any mistakes in my english posted above - only this way i'll be able to improve. thank you!

Yeah, the jumping and swimming animations are... lacking. And once I again I must say that this game hasn't been lip-synched for the English language. If you want the facial animations to match the voice, switch to the Japanese version (with English subtitles of course). I don't care anyway, because that British voice acting rubs me the right way.

So far the most annoying thing for me is the lack of a Bestiary. I really wish there was a way to document enemies I've seen and where or under what conditions they spawn. :(

Nah, the lip synching isnt the problem (i DO use the english VA, i think its great, and REYN(TIME!!) and Riki are outright hilarious ), i rather mean that "some" things really look cheap, like when that Highentia Girl (Melia? .. something like that) cried about her father - there was NOTHING on her face, while hearing a crying voice. (er.. how do i explain that spoiler.. uhm, .. suck it, you should be more than fine if youre more than 25 Hours in i'd say)

Oh and a Bestiary would be kinda cool, since there are SO MANY Monsters, which all have insane variety of items stuffed in them..

__

By the way, ... i cant stop running from Blue Orb to Blue Orb, even if it means running in the opposite direction of where i am supposed to go.. they are so shiny.. *__* .. anyone with me on this?

PS: just arrived on mechonis' Leg.. if that fucker is as big as Bionis, .. dear lord.. xD

I played tonight again and got to the nopon village where you this new girl and I got to say that the voice acting of the Nopons is very bad. It isn´t aweful but compared to some other games it really isn´t good at all. But its getting more and more interesting.
