News Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Release Date trailer, releasing July 29th

It's a sad state of affairs when you're satisfied with 540p on a modern system.
Switch is my only console so I don't have a choice. I unfortunately don't trust Monolith Soft when it comes to handheld mode. SMTV was dynamic 720p but mostly around 540p+ and it actually looked decent in handheld thanks to the small screen. If it's similar to that, I wouldn't mind but I obviously would rather have native resolution but that's 100% not happening.
 
That depends if it's using DLSS/FSR or other upscaling techniques.

As long as it doesn't look like the mess that is XC2 with TAA smeared all over it.
I wonder what the chances of XC3 using FSR. More 1st party games are using it and I believe Switch Sports is using it.
 
LOL

I was already a big old biased stan for both Lanz and Sena just purely based on their designs alone and now they can fusion dance?!? :eek:

The bluriness at 0.38, it's gonna go lower than 720p docked?
I watched a launch trailer for 2 to check, it's clearer.

This is a wild and unexpected surprise. A welcome one, though it presumably means Splatoon 3 is coming a little later in the year.

This news made my day/week/month lol... The game is just three months away, let that sink in T_T soooo happy and hyped right now!

And the trailer is amazing in every aspect: music, cutscenes, battle system,... Maybe I was expecting to see a bit more of the world/exploration but now I think it's better know as few as possible.

The new art and website are also pretty cool... I hope some people will translate some parts of the Japanese web as I'm sure not every detail will be on its other languages counterparts.

I need more music excerpts!! Some Takahashi interview on an Ask to Developer issue...

The only disappointing thing: the Limited Edition is a bit of a let down. I mean the book is expected and I love it, but I don't like steelboxes (never saw why it's some kind of typical item expected and wanted by fans, it's not always pretty and to be honest a bit useless). Some music selection on vinyl (or some Core Crystal pen drive), some figure / amiibo... a fabric poster/map... a mini-diorama... a Nopon plushie... I can think in tons of stuff more exciting and cool than an steel box... meh.
 
I got a little over three months to playthrough 2 and Torna before 3 now......and I'm not starting until May.

That slice of gameplay from the Japanese website is definitely showcasing the scope of background overall plus combat. It's looking good!

Is Torna the best looking game from them in handheld or was it Xenoblade DE?

Here’s the question: we find Poppi inert in a ruin and recruit her as an ally, or she’s a hidden super boss?
 
Well this was a nice surprise when I went to watch YT videos at lunch today. Was up to my ears with work from 9-12 today so I didn't see any news about this.

Also, what kind of company announces that a game is releasing ahead of schedule? 😂

Kinda surprised that Good Vibes Gaming still haven't reacted to this on their YT channel.
Love their enthusiasm and... well, their good vibes ^^
 
Eyyyyyyyyy. Not watching any more footage of the game. I’m ready.
Yeah I think I'm with you on this... Maybe if they do a Treehouse live with the opening scene and the first 40 minutes of gameplay, I'll watch, but probably the launch trailer or probable "exploration trailer" will show a little too much or more advanced gameplay and cutscenes... even out of context...

Any notice how the sound effects and design is heaps better than previous Xenoblade games? Especially during combat, the sound effects sound so crispy and crunchy lol.
 
If I have to fight Poppi, I might cry a bit ;(
You'll cry as she stomps your whole party.

See, I was also thinking the sound design was too good to be running on the regular Switch 😏

this dropped unexpectedly, so getting the crew together for a reaction might be out of the cards. might as well go straight to the discussion since everyone would have seen it by now
 
One week after Live A LIve? Does Nintendo want me to become a pasty shadow of a human being this Summer? Because I'll do what I must.
 
so i have only played and finished 2. which one do i play first, torna or 1? also why is torna on its own 40 bucks on the eshop but the expansion is 30 bucks?
Xenoblade DE is probably going to be more pertinent to XC3 than Torna. The expansion pass being cheaper is just a way of giving XC2 players a discount.

i see. i kinda want to have the separate icon for torna but probably a dumb move to pay more just for that...
 
Fucking nintendo making the special edition limited to their website, it's going to be a slaughter trying to get the CE

I'd go with Xeno 1
Torna is Nice, but it's still a complement to Xeno 2. You'll need Xeno 1 story.
 
Can we please stop with this shitpost about Xeno games resolution ? This is getting quite old.
Deal with it.
This is a trailer featuring our first look at gameplay sequences. Of course the visuals would be under scrutiny.

Could be worse: I got a separate icon, case, and wholeass cartridge just for Torna.
lol. i actually bought the physical release for torna as well, but sold it. i did it because the version i had was the SEA version and unlike other regions it did not have a download code for the rest of the content from the expansion pass.
 
sshh. I'm trying to be self-deprecating so the other weebs don't think I'm getting arrogant

But you woulda had that icon tho 🤷‍♂️
okay maybe I am getting arrogant lol

Just pre-ordered even though I don’t even own Xenoblade 2 and haven’t finished one. They seem to get such limited stock I don’t want to struggle or have to pay more in the future so I’ll have it for… some day lol

Wonder if Kit & Krysta will comment on the changed release date? They could probably give some insight to why and how and such.

I bought Torna thru the XC2 DLC, and digitally as its own game. And physically.

Edit: to be clear, not only do I purposefully have a vast physical Switch library, but Torna is my #1 favorite game on the Switch.

This isn't how it works Nintendo/Monolith. You're suppose to delay games like everyone else not push them forward ;)
 
I really hope this game cuts back on XC2's efforts to be "funny" and "horny". At least if you want to do fanservice, do it on characters that feel like they deserve it.
