I'd definitely prefer a Definitive Edition on the next system. X could use a lot of QoL features.With all the Nintendo news since the September direct, my only disappointment is not seeing Xenoblade 3.
I can forgive it, though, as I know in my heart that it'll be ready for a spring release. It has to be.
Here's hoping it'll continue the trajectory of 2's sales and will bring the series to Persona popularity.
Also, I am convinced Xenoblade X will get a port, the only question in my mind is if they'll port it to the Switch after Xeno 3, or if they'll make a Definitive Edition for the successor.
Imagine Mira in 4k...

I apologise if I sound annoying but good lord, I wish Torna looked that GOOD in handheld mode.Hi everyone! New to the forum, soooo excited to see what Monolith Soft is cooking. I love making high quality GIFs so you'll occasionally see me posting them. For example, I couldn't find a high quality GIF of their logo for hype moments and anticipation, so I made one!
Also a GIF of Torna the Golden Country:
inb4, Xenoblade X port and Xenoblade 3 acting as bridge between Xenoblade 2 and Xenoblade X making all Xenoblade games interconnectedI'm feeling confident we'll see XC3 in 1/2022 Direct.
Okay, maybe not confident but I really hope so.
I agree. I think January Directs are a thing of the past and now it will be February instead. 3 general Directs a year: February, June (E3) and September before TGS.The last time we had a January Direct was 2015 so I wouldn’t count on it. We had a Mini in 2018 and the Switch Presentation in 2017.
The style present in the Baten Kaito games would be a welcome addition, for sure. Though there's no guarantee how the market would react, a project with those gorgeous backgrounds is definitely something I'd like to see.Please let Yasuyuki Honne make another game with those beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds. It doesn't have to be Baten Kaitos. He has expressed interest in doing something original with their Kyoto studio in 2018 and they'd be perfect for a spiritual successor to BK.
This could also be amazing, and I suspect the skill for it is also present.Or diorama backgrounds like Fantasian.
I love this meme and admire your dedication to it.Por qué no los dos?
¿Por qué no los tres?

Yeah it's been ages. I'm not even asking for something big budget, something like Bravely Default 2 with non-chibified models and Honne's style would be enough.I would love for this to happen.
When was the last time we got a big budget JRPG with fixed-camera/pre-rendered backgrounds? Lost Odyssey in 2007? That kind of JRPG really needs a comeback.
I suspect so as well, and I'd love to see that happen. Those titles would certainly have their own distinct identities.IIRC, Honne hand-built a diorama of the Bionis and Mechonis as a way to illustrate for Iwata what they wanted to build in Xenoblade. I bet he'd jump at the chance to do more work like that for a game.
And his expressed interest gives me hope. It would be a fine addition to these larger titles.He has expressed interest in doing something original with their Kyoto studio in 2018 and they'd be perfect for a spiritual successor to BK.
These really probably wouldn't need an exorbitant budget to shine, and that's part of what makes the prospect so compelling.Yeah it's been ages. I'm not even asking for something big budget, something like Bravely Default 2 with non-chibified models and Honne's style would be enough.

Yes, that’s the overall consensus. Reveal in the Feb Direct and released fall/holiday 2022.So what's the suspected turnaround on this game gonna be? Reveal in H1 Direct, release in Fall/Winter 2022?
Anything past that and it seems a bit crammed, though I guess Dread shows it could be held off until E3.
I felt Torna was a major step up in that regard - while I think XC games would look much better with better hardware, there’s also time constraint to consider when you look at XC2.Considering how XC2's unbelievablly beautiful art and visuals were butchered pretty badly by the Switch, I can't help but hope they hold out for 2023 and the Switch 2 / Switch Pro.
Or that if they don't, it gets a resolution boost once the new machine is out.
I mean, I remember at launch playing XC2 and already begging for a Switch Pro, lol. Four years on and a similar level of IQ (image quality) would be unbearable.

they didnt really work on sword and shield but kind of did in a waySeems like there's finally a bit of news with the rumor/leak about Monolith Soft assisting on Pokemon Legends Arceus in some fashion. If it's true, Monolith Soft should have some listing in the game's credits (usually Special Thanks) and the game should be added to Monolith's list of games on their website. One question is if the Tokyo studio, the Kyoto studio, or both studios assisted on Legends. The only games the Tokyo studio has assisted on since the creation of the Kyoto studio are Breath of the Wild and presumably its sequel, but if Monolith is involved with Legends we probably won't know which studio assisted on it until the staff list is public.
Also since I'm seeing a particular claim float around a bit I feel like this should be addressed: Monolith Soft wasn't involved with Pokemon Sword and Shield.
If Monolith Soft assists on a game at all, it should get added to their website's game history page after the game comes out and the studio should be listed somewhere in the game's credits (usually Special Thanks). Neither of these things happened with Sword and Shield.

This is the part where everyone asks if you're going to pick up the Torna expansion next.Hey everybody, new member here! Finally had some time to play through Xenoblade 2 and am just about to the end now. So excited to see where things go from here.
There is a ton of upcoming stuff I want to play, but probably this summerThis is the part where everyone asks if you're going to pick up the Torna expansion next.

then it might indeed been an advisory "here's some tips" kinda roleI just looked over the staff list for Pokemon Legends Arceus (I've been trying to avoid leaks), and Monolith Soft doesn't appear to be listed anywhere.
Or the person who made the claim was just wrong =pthen it might indeed been an advisory "here's some tips" kinda role
Nintendo game
open world (ish)
Makes sense, considering Splatoon 3 is around the corner. It made more sense to me that would be the game they were helping with.I just looked over the staff list for Pokemon Legends Arceus (I've been trying to avoid leaks), and Monolith Soft doesn't appear to be listed anywhere.
Probably FebruaryWhere is the Direct, I need to see and hear XC3.
