Its getting real close to Xillia 2's release date in the US

Gaius' will block direct hits, or something like that.

Final boss (and I think entire playthroughs) already on the internet. Not going post link since Namco might go on a take down spree for a while.

Edit: For "consistency buffs", they apparently changed their pronunciation of "miasma" from Abyss

Well my copy of the CE shipped. Can't wait to get it.

I watched some vids of X2's story...and seriously. Ivar.

"You better NAIL it because it's HAMMERIN time!"

I'm liking the voice acting so far from the videos I've watched. I don't know if it's improved acting/directing or the change in Elize's character but her voice actor sounds a ton better now.

I've also picked up Erik Kimerer, Joe J Thomas, and Yuri Lowenthal as background characters, so I wonder if any of them will be involved in the cameo battle. Ben Diskin also said that he'd have a small role in this game so I wonder if that's just more background characters or if there's an actual plot important character he's voicing.

3 more days... I kind of lost track of time!

yeah, less than 3 days left, and still counting.

My body is ready.

To get or not to get...

EDIT: Oh whatever, I'll get it. It's not a very smart move but idc, Xillia \o/

I'm not getting it. I'm waiting for Zesteria. It's because I don't like the choices. What if you make a wrong choice which locks you into the bad ending. Case in point: Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2 Conquest ending.

Most gamers should play for the worst ending first, then work their way up to the best ending.

The choices make no fucking difference dude, also guides exists. This's no fuckign excuse to buy the game.

Not to mention, the choice to get the Bad Ending is so blatantly obvious that you'd have to be an idiot not to know what it was going to lead into.

Choices are alright. What annoys me is when you are punished for picking the wrong choice. In some games, picking choice A gives you a perk or item while choice B is a big slap on your face. Those choices are terrible.

In any case, I'm looking forward to ToX2

But that's the whole reason to have choices. I like when choices changes things even if it is a small change of dialogue and/or affection.

tbh choices don't matter that much unless you're trying to get as much affection as possible. The choices for the ending of the game don't happen until the very end.

There's an affection system in this game? What's it do, is it similar to Symphonia's?

Gameplay spoils(?)

Spoiler:

My hopes have been dashed, ah well, that's a pretty interesting incentive to keep playing. My inner completionist is ready. Also, that's a pretty cool way to throwback to the sub-event in the first game.

There's also

Spoiler:

You also need to have max affection with a character to use them in the bonus dungeon.

And I think the dual high-ogees also need maxed affection?

Nope, just 8th. Max affection gives you option to change the name of some of them, to something stupid (imo). Ludogadogahammaaaa and Pink Pinker Pinkest is err...

Also, Tenshou Fuubakusatsu >>>>>>> Juuga Fuubakusatsu

Hmm interesting.

No need to drop the F-bomb. It's my OPINION. Everyone has them. I'll wait for Zesteria.

<.<

Now I haven't looked over the entirety of this thread so excuse me if this has been asked already, but how many missable items/subquests can I expect in Xillia 2?
