Getting lost in Xenoblade Chronicles X

Michibiku's Jenni Lada writes, "When was the last time you found yourself genuinely and truly lost in a game? You had the maps available,perhaps even some overheard arrow, pointing you in the right direction. Despite these features, you had no idea where you were or what you were doing wrong. For me, Xenoblade Chronicles X is the only game that has ever stumped me in such a way and, rather than being frustrated, I appreciated the experience."

Often I find myself wandering aimlessly around the continents of Mira. When this happens I always seems to end up in the same areas over and over again, travelling in circles as if I really am lost. It then takes some serious willpower to just travel straight ahead and ignore all the things to the side to get out of this circle.

Oh not me. I'm constantly charting new ground, always moving toward unexplored areas. I make planting probes my top priority, so that helps. I have just about every probe planted in Primordia and Noctilum, and I'm roughly halfway done with Oblivia and 10% through Sylvalum.

Man, the world is just SO freaking huge and diverse, I love just running around and exploring it all. About to take my skell license exam though, so it's about to get a whole lot more interesting.

crazy but it's been a very long time since I've thoroughly enjoyed getting lost in a game.

It benefits you to wander aimlessly, because you can gather materials that you'll need for later missions and really save you a lot of trouble.

Playing it right now! It is awesome! Good thing I held myself back from buying this last year. Now I can't wait for XC2 and XC3 to have the same enhancements and upgrade.

repsahj123d ago (Edited 123d ago )

And yes, even XC1. But I haven't tried and owed it yet.

Vits122d ago (Edited 122d ago )

Honestly, it’s kind of bizarre how rough native Switch players had it with this game for years. Aside from the original Wii U release, Xenoblade has pretty much been a series that felt better on emulators than on the actual hardware, mainly because of the blurry image quality and unstable frame rates.

It’s good to finally see an official version of the game that doesn’t look terrible and apparently is stable.

ABizzel1122d ago

This is exactly why hardware matters to a decent extent.

It effectively took a 900p@30fps, maxed it to 1080p, then used DLSS to upscale it 4x in resolution to render at 4K, while also doubling frame rate.

I am waiting for a physical copy.

repsahj122d ago

Nice! Almost 2 months waiting is not that long.

Hmmm interesting. Hopefully true, liking the slowly but surely partnership between the big 3. Just imagine all the xenoblade games officially on pc. I think mcsft going 3rd party but still making consoles fits them.

Kneetos386d ago

Xenoblade chronicles X is not there

Either removed or the picture shown was edited, but it is currently not there

NettosGameRoom386d ago

You can still view it using the internet archive!

TheColbertinator386d ago

This is good. Real good if Nintendo is smart to capitalize.

jznrpg386d ago

I would bet a lot of money it’s not happening

GotGame818128d ago

I don't see this happening. Nintendo has said the "Only place to play a Nintendo game, will be on a Nintendo console!". Yes I know people are using emulators, but that isn't what Nintendo intended.

MAYBE, if Nintendo does decide to port X over, it's because it is an Xenoblade game that is stand alone.

X, is my favorite Xenoblade game in the Series, because of Skells" flying your Skell and battling with them feels great!
