Jasper loves dodging questions and changing the subject, a bit like Rex which I even doubt you know the name of :lol:

There’s just under 4hrs to buy the game on Friday as you promised.

Here’s the map to the closest EB in Blacktown: Would you like me to tell you the bus route?

Apparently, GTA V, available on the new Xbox One X is rated far higher than Xenobald 2. Strange considering that GTA V is almost Half a decade old!!!

It seems as if Nitnedno can't make compelling games anymore.

Yep. I got my copy today. EB didn't have it.. so JB HiFi was my store of purchase.. which.. hey.. it always was going to be.. but it's always fun going and seeing the differences..

I was able to get FFXV brand new cheaper at EB though which was bizarre.

Anyway.. looking forward to sinking some hours into Xenoblade this weekend.

Sounds like a scary complex game:
Jasper was right. You'll probably need guidebook just to figure out everything. Tutorials 10 hours into the game sounds crazy.
I'll do anything for Pyra even read 100000 page manuals to play it properly. Judging by the praise maybe they should copy square enix by making sequal within sequels ie XBC2-II

Which is the best? XBC1 or XBC2? The debates between fans will rage on for decades like star wars nerds debating about whether it was actually Jar Jar being the true mastermind of the entire plot to overthrow the the galactic republic by using jedi mind trick on the sith lord to enhance his strength to beat the jedi, ..Just out of petty revenge for Obi Wan calling him a pathetic lifeform way back in episide 1.(Jar Jar thinks he was rude. And this offended him so much because he is rude and it's only ok for his race to act like that so he needed to destroy the government and make them follow a dictator who would ensure they never act rude to him ever again by enslaving people)
So did nintendo make any amiibo of Pyra Jasper? Please make the chest authentic. That one will sell out quickly.

Why the fuck is he blaming Nintendo for some random game being overpriced and loaded with microtransactions? I would understand if it were a Nintendo game, but it's not. :?

It's like people blaming Steam/Sony/Microsoft. Blame the shitty money hungry developer of the game instead! :down:

List of Nintendo Switch games (still being updated) and the resolution they run at.

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Xenoblade Chronicles 2, despite being a good game, has the worst image quality in portable mode I’ve even seen. It sometimes looks like super-compressed jpeg with sharpness filter applied. They need to remove the sharpness filter ASAP. Resolution drops as low as 368p, so the whole game in portable mode is very blurry.

It's pretty.. till it starts moving.. it's choppy in open places or complex towns.. and the draw in isn't fantastic. Kinda spoiled by other recent games. Hell.. even Andromeda has a better enemy draw in.

BUT.

It's still got a style that is engrossing. It's very Skies of Arcadia. Am really enjoying it.

The characters have the Skies of Arcadia vibe.. It is lush in terms of the environments and they have a similar feel.. specially the huge big airships.

I'm only 8 hours in.. but there is so much to like.. but more for you - so much in common with Skies.. yet being a different game.

Impressions (so far so good. Not just for weeaboos)
Nintendo should patch the game to allow you to review tutorials. Never over-estimate the intelligence of the player. That is how you avoid turning off people from your games. Always assume they are dumb rather than assume they are smart.

Bubububu all games on the Switch are 1080p 60fps. I'm sure someone here said that. :lol:

Nobody has ever said that you fucking retard! :roll:

I said most Nintendo developed Switch games are 1080p/60fps (e.g. Splatoon 2, ARMS, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe).

Yep Jasper has said that on a number of occasions.

368p 20fps doesn't quite match up to those numbers, does it? :lol:

Nope. I've NEVER said that! :roll:

You fuckers also seem to forget that Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a game developed by a small studio (Monolith Soft) who only have the resources/budget to develop one game per Nintendo console generation (niche games which don't even perform well or have much appeal outside of Japan...like most JRPG's). :?

This game ain't (and never was supposed to be) of the quality of a Super Mario/Mario Kart/Zelda...etc (these games are developed by Nintendo's finest development divisions, unlike Xenoblade).

These Nintendo games have worldwide appeal and make Nintendo hundreds of millions of dollars - thus they boast a top tier development team of hundreds, and of course a significantly higher development budget. :P

Wow now he's bagging out Monolith saying they're a small-fry amateur studio and we shouldn't expect more than 368p 20fps out of them.

Meanwhile all Switch games are supposed to be 1080p 60fps according to Nintendo's local rep, Jasper, and that clearly isn't the case.

Superior form? It's a fucking 2D game! :redface:

The only difference would be if Capcom decide to make Mega Man 11 4K on PC/XB1X/PS4 Pro (and who the fuck would even be able to tell the difference or give a shit about 1080p vs 4K for a game like Mega Man)? :roll:

Halo 5 is supposed to be the AAA blockbuster must-have magnum opus of Xbox One....and it's quality as a game is the equivalent to a niche genre JRPG developed by one of Nintendo's second tier minor development studios... :redface:

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (even with it's faults - e.g...a resolution occasionally dropping as low as 368p in portable mode) is the Metacritic equivalent of a high scoring must-have game on Xbox One (Gears of War 4, Call of Duty: WWII, Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, Quantum Break. etc). 8)

Lestat...keep stroking your thick wog cock (using your mum's olive oil like you used to when you were 14 years old) to Xbox One games that have the same or a lower Metacritic score to Nintendo's worst offerings (e.g. Xenoblade Chronicles 2). :lol: :up:
