I didnt enjoy this game. And i get to play it free as it was a gift to my daughter.

Feels aimed at children.

lol. Get out of here with that "aimed at children" junk as an excuse to hate it. If you didn't enjoy it, just say it was a mediocre/less than mediocre experience.


The story seems very aimed at kids. Its better than sunshines but thats not saying much.

Or its "mediocre" if you prefer. The hat/marriage and conclusions seemed stupid..

I mean, Mario is generally aimed towards kids so that's not really a unique complaint.

Yea, my best friend. 6'4, he's got a football wide receiver build and he looks like a model. He's also a super nice and down to earth guy. For as long as I've known him (freshman year in college and beyond), I've seen girls throw themselves at him like no other. I've seen girls FB message him wanting to be FWB or just one night stands. I've seen girls leave their numbers on pieces of paper on his windshield. Girls approach this guy at clubs, he doesn't have to do anything. But his mentality as always been that he wants a girl to settle with longterm. He's just built like that growing up, he doesn't have any interest in fucking around.

Gotta admire him sticking to his principles like that. I bet he's been tempted plenty of times.

QQ wheres a good place to power level?

I just faced Muhmrkan. I'm at level 48..no areas are giving me shit XP wise. Bosses and hordes of big enemies are my only issues.

Do sidequests. That's all I can really say. Straight up battling enemies constantly doesn't give much EXP at all unless facing much higher leveled enemies, and facing anything 5 levels or higher from you is basically a death wish unless you use late-game equipment setups.

Doing the generic "collect x items" or "defeat certain enemies" quests are a great start. Usually unnamed NPCs carry those quests.

Good write-up! I mostly agree with what you said, though there are a select few characters I liked better in 2. Even though Tora was a painfully-obvious pervert, he kicked ass in cutscenes when there was in need of action. I do like Riki a lot but I liked Tora a little bit more...though that also kinda extends to Poppi. His artificial Blade ends up getting more characterization/attention than Tora himself does by the end, lol. I also kinda liked Nia a bit better than Melia, if we're to make a comparison. She's a more varied character and is a legitimate foil to Rex's character. The only thing they dropped the ball on is her feelings for Rex, which just came out of nowhere. At least with Melia you could tell she felt something for Shulk after the first few hours with her...but she never had the guts to say so to him like Nia ended up doing to Rex. Most of the other characters in 1 left more of an impact to me though, including villains like you said.

As for gameplay I mostly preferred 2, at least with combat mechanics. I can agree that the field skills combined with a gacha system to be able to get past those checks was a terrible idea (should've been a way to guarantee the kind of blade you want rather than leave it through RNG), but the combat felt pretty involved to me. Not being able to move while auto-attacking felt weird, along with the decreased speed, but opening up skills that let me speed up Arts cooldown and let me cancel one Art into another brought up some really engaging battle moments. I still really like Xenoblade 1's combat system, but X did it better to me. It's essentially a faster-paced version of 1's, but the team focus takes a bit of a backseat considering how customizable your player character is.

What's wrong with his advice?

He forgot to tell people to put on their tin foil hats before paying with their card, that's what.

I mean, is it really a bad thing to be cautious with your card? There's too many evil-minded people in the world to at least not be cautious to some degree.

Honestly all I can say is that if you don't feel you're gonna get enough time spent to justify getting it, you don't have to. I think it's a great console but it has a lot of ports. It's how the PS4 was at first, so I'm hoping the Switch gets better after Smash comes out.

Now if it just has decent single-player (something Smash 4 was lacking in despite me really liking the game) and a few more newcomers and/or DLC (almost guaranteed), then this game would be perfect.

Having your statements and actions (and inactions) mean something is fine, but one has to know the action they're taking when they make a decision. It has to be clear. There's a reason Telltale prompts are more than one word.

Yeah, this is definitely a bit of an issue. I watched a review where at the end he was rooting for Conner to win, a button prompt came up to grab the gun so he thought Conner would grab it, but no Markus did and now Conner's dead.

Nobody goes into an anime game expecting a deep, cinematic experience. David Cage games are trying to be exactly that, so does it not make sense to criticize them in that context when they fail to do what they set out to?

Yeah, it's like an Other M situation as a comparison. I've legitimately seen some defenses toward it asking why the story is heavily criticized when Metroid was never known for story. But it's because Other M actually puts a major focus on the story unlike other Metroid games, so it should get scrutinized.
