Crackin made us realize there was no such thread for this. That changes NOW!

Oh boy, I'm so hyped for it. I never played Xenoblade, but I really want that to change. I really want to play this game.

It just looks like the kind of adventure I want to experience.

This looks freaking epic!

I still need to play Xenoblade, but if it's like I hear it is then my eagerness to play it will be justified.
 
To be honest, I'm not very interested in this yet.

I need to see some more actual gameplay, like one would see at the Nintendo Treehouse events. It looks and sounds quite different, but I don't know whether or not this is a good different.
 
I can understand that. However I have not played a Xenoblade game and just really want to so someone inexperienced such as myself doesn't really know what could be different (aside from the different protagonist)
 
Off the top of my head, this game has a silent protagonist (this actually legitimately bugs me at the moment), no planned dedicated healer, obviously a new cast of characters (no known major characters from the original XC returning), species and locations, online multiplayer, planned DLC, and I believe there's something akin to branching stories? Well, I haven't been too dedicated when it comes to following news on this game, there's probably more than that stuffed in.

Though you guys should totally play the original first, it's so good.

I know it is I really want to but I don't have a new 3ds and the original is so rare and expensive on it's own ;_;
 
I can't wait for this but I really wish Shulk and friends would return, even as NPCs or something. I'm guessing the most they will get is a cameo.

Why do they have to have a silent protagonist? Why? This isn't starring Mario. This isn't starring Link. I don't know if this was Nintendo or Monolith's decision, but come on.

No healer will be interesting.

I don't mind the new cast and locations as long as they're memorable, but I still hope for some cameo from Xenoblade.

The online multiplayer and branching stories sound like they have potential though.
 
This game looks stunning, but that's what I'm worried about. It might be too focused on being next-gen than actually having good gameplay.
 

Character customization looks cool. I love how you can make your character look like a creepy old guy/lady from down the bottom of the street. Also boob size adjuster confirmed
 
OK, just watched the Nintendo Direct. I find it DISGUSTING how we have to pay for better loading times.
