HOLY SHIT TAKE MY FUCKING MONEY

>+ SMT
Excuse? I mean, I get what you're saying, but what?

>>380427123
You collect 'blades' that govern your abilities and stats. Like in SMT how you collect demons that do the same shit.

I'm surprised they made it look actually worse than Breath of the Wild. This isn't even a game that needed to be made for 2 consoles.

>>380427347
Can you fuse them together? Do you negotiate with enemy NPCs to recruit these blades?

>>380427347
That's more like Persona. Persona you recruit demons to augment yourself freely in battle. SMT you're generally a pretty solidly built player character with lots of methods of customization and demons you recruit are allies that fill your party.

>>380427363
BotW is a simple action game with physics puzzles. Xenoblade 2 is a complex RPG with various mechanics that the game has to keep track off.

>>380427493
Don't know about fusing yet but that could be cool.

During the demo they said you battle one of the blades and if you beat him you recruit him to your arsenal.

BotW is a more complicated game. This game is built with an MMO combat system. The kinda shit system made to function with hundreds of players in view and not matter very much should lag become an issue.

Which is kinda ironic because Persona 5 is actually the most like SMT with demons instead of shadows and talking to enemies mid battle.

They could hire Helen Keller's corpse and it would still sound less awful than Hiro Shimono.

What do you mean? The first Xenoblade game was IMO one of the best JRPGs in the last few generations. Xenoblade X was bloated but still better than the majority of shit released recently in the genre. This game is fairing up to be at the very least an enjoyable experience.

X2 despite running on a more powerful system is looking worse than XCX which looked pretty damn sleek on WiiU only hampered by 720p resolution.

Maybe the budget is smaller as I know nintendo went ham with the development of XCX.

Im still hype for X2 despite the cheesy as fuck "story" we saw in the e3 trailer. Hope there's xeno like surprises somewhere in there.

>mfw retards like you fail to realise that Persona is not SMT in the literal sense
SMT or Shin Megami Tensei (rough translation - true goddess reincarnation) refers specifically to SMT 1/2/3/4/Apocalypse and IF..., while spinoff games like Persona and Devil Survivor come under the alternate umbrella term "Megami Ibunroku", which roughly translates to "Another Goddess". Other spin-offs still such as Raidou Kuzunoha and Soul Hackers fall into the Devil Summoner tag.
Fans of the series as a whole often refer to mainline and spin-off games as MegaTen, or "Megami Tensei" because it can be easier than using the tag of each series seperately. When people say that Persona is not SMT, they are correct. The only times "Shin Megami Tensei" have ever been used outside of the actual mainline games themselves were on western box-art at a time when Atlus did not yet have much of a western presence, hence Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3/4 and others.

Get FUCKING educated.

Looks like one too, though this is probably early in the game (I think?) and JRPGs really like to unlock important combat options 20 hours in

I mean he is level 11 in that battle and thats around the level you fight metal face which is the first real boss fight in Xenoblade and that wasn't an engaging or very interesting fight either. I mean you had only 4 abilties at that point too.

>>380434773
It's just a replacement for Daze.
Although, the commentator says the status chain can be even longer, so I wonder what Launch leads into?
Having too many statuses that can only be inflicted in a certain order sounds pretty shitty to set up though. you end up with too many of your moves being dedicated to only their place in the chain.
