Xenoblade

[mic]

W glownym topicu o wii wspominana byla ta gra wlasnie ostatnio - jak pisal Malutki to nowa nazwa Monado: Beginning of the World, teraz Xenoblade wlasnie. Aktualnie ukazalo sie sporo info o grze:

- "The world setting, story and other elements have no relation (to past Xeno games). It's a completely new title." - Xenoblade director Tetsuya Takahashi
- Takahashi feels that past Monolith titles have focused on events and scenarios, and this development path was a dead end
- Xenoblade started off with the dev team examining the origins of the RPG genre, and creating a game that was simply fun
- Why does this game have 'Xeno' in the title? "I wanted to to have some sort of common point with the games I've made."
- "Xeno" has the meaning of "different nature" or "uniqueness"
- the 'blade' portion of the name is explained in the game's ending
- background story involves two golds that fought a great battle tens of thousands of years ago
- the end of this battle resulted in two giant corpses, which happen to be the setting for this game
- "It seemed like it would be enjoyable to adventure on top of the body of a giant god." h
- Mr. Takahashi was inspired by Soma Bringer for his giant god idea, and started to work on design documents right away
- a model of the two gods (one with wings) was created in order to better give a sense of what's going on
- the two gods are frozen in battle, with swords clashing against one another
- the model was created before game development began. "It was of great help when explaining the project to Nintendo."
- the entire game takes place on the two gods, and you'll find nothing but ocean surrounding them. There's not even any outer space to speak of.
- the game world is about the size of Japan
- areas of the world open up as you explore
- you'll be able to go inside one of the gods
- verticality is a big part of Xenoblade. "From the start of the project, we thought it would be interesting if we could make use of a vertical construction."
- Areas of the world correspond to parts of the gods' bodies
- you'll also experience different weather and varied monster ecolog
- you can head to the top of one of the gods to see an aurora
- the people that live on the different gods are fighting with each other
- one god is a home to organic life (where the main character is from), and the other is home to mechanical life
- story beginning: "It's simple -- the fight against mechanical life that threatens the peace of mankind."
- the game kicks off in a cave on the foot of one god
- your aim is to make it to the god's head
- the game keeps track of where you should be going for both the main quest and side quests
- use warps to transport back to older areas
- specific systems in place to keep you from getting lost
- seamless world movement: "We've put effort into this, because we felt that in order to show a living world, we needed an overwhelming sense of scale, like that of an MMORPG."
- gain experience for exploring special areas that include monsters that can't be defeated at first. Level up and return to take these foes down.
- enemies visible in the game world, encounter one and you seamlessly transition to battle
- nearby enemies can join in on battles
- journey with two AI-controlled characters
- select special skills (called Arts) for your AI party members
- your character performs attacks automatically
- Arts - attack skills, recovery skills and more
- 50 to 60 hours of gameplay
- Takahashi promises you won't spend endless amounts of time grinding or engaging in event scenes

Brzmi obiecujaco ?  Fani jrpg maja dosc spory wybor gier z tej kategorii na wii a tu kolejna dobra raczej sie szykuje
A pod linkiem nizej sa skany z famitsu dla zainteresowanych

No nieźle, scany wyglądają obiecująco. Aż za dobrze

Info zaczerpnięte z neojsite
Tetsuya Takahashi w wywiadzie dla japońskiego tygodnika Famitsu zdradził kilka nowych i interesujących faktów na temat swojego projektu - Xenoblade (wcześniej znane jako Monado: Beginning of the World) szykowanego na Nintendo Wii. A więc co wiemy:

 Takahashi po raz kolejny potwierdził, iż Xenoblade nie będzie miało żadnego związku z serią Xeno znaną z konsol PSOne i PS2.
 gra nastawiona jest na eksploracje i podróżowanie po krainach. Fabuła to raczej dodatek.
 świat gry umiejscowiony jest na grzbietach dwóch Bóstw, które swego czasu toczyły ze sobą wojnę (fot. 1). Pozostała część ich ciał ma być czymś w rodzaju oceanu (cokolwiek to znaczy).
 ludzie je zamieszkujący są odmiennej kultury (jedni cenią naturę, drudzy wychwalają technikę) co skutkuje ciągłymi konfliktami pomiędzy nimi.
 pojedynki rozgrywane są w czasie rzeczywistym.
 naszą przygodę rozpoczynamy na prawej stopie jednego z Bóstw.
 nie zabraknie środków transportu i side-questów.
 Xenoblade starczy na około 50-60 godzin gry. Jak na dzisiejsze standardy to nadzwyczaj pozytywny wynik.

ps. Nie mogę sie doszukać nazwy developera? Wie ktoś może, jaki team stoi za prace nad Xenoblade!? Byłbym dozgonnie wdzięczny o odp.

[Ma_niek]

Developer to Monolith Soft

[mateo]

Wii się rozpędza z jRPG'ami The Last Story, Dragon Quest X, a teraz Xenoblade. Strasznie ciekaweee tytuły.

[mic]

prawdopodobnie znamy glownego kompozytora muzyki dla gry:

Xenoblade is certainly garnering a lot of buzz among Wii owners. A Wii-exclusive RPG from a developer that has a pretty good pedigree when it comes to this genre. While they can craft an interesting game, just who is going to handle the soundtrack?

According to the latest issue of Famitsu, Yoko Shimomura has been confirmed as the composer. This fact alone should instill even more faith in those that are excited for the title.

Xenoblade Chronicles gets special Classic Controller in Europe, hope for NA release all but lost

This information comes from the lead manager of the French branch of Nintendo...

 - special classic controller for Xenoblade Chronicles
 - Nintendo of Europe had a presence at E3, but they weren't allow to show Xenoblade Chronicles
 - this was because NoA didn't want to showcase games that they aren't planning to sell

Kolejna porcja recek :
Gamespot : 9.0

Xenoblade Chronicles is a remarkable game. It drags the JRPG into the 21st century, modernising many of the genre's traits and nailing a pace that outclasses the majority of its peers. Even coming from Tetsuya Takahashi--a man whose previous credits include Chrono Trigger and the other Xeno titles--it's a hugely surprising, versatile game. It has everything that seasoned JRPG veterans are looking for, but it also manages to lift the barrier for entry for those new to the genre. It retains the traditions it wants to and modernises the aspects it needs to. It's not only one of the best JRPGs in years; it's also one of the best RPGs regardless of subgenre. Xenoblade Chronicles is a captivating, magical game which deserves to be hailed as the revolution it is.

http://www.gamespot.com/wii/rpg/monadobeginningoftheworld/review.html

Ign: 9.0

Xenoblade Chronicles is the best Japanese RPG of this generation. The fact that it looks like it's from the last generation is its only drawback, but its technical limitations are offset by imaginative artistic direction, innovative and compelling combat, and thoughtful design. It's a throwback to the glory days of the genre, proof that there are always new ways to tell a story. If you've ever felt neglected by the lack of in-depth gaming epics on the Wii, you owe it to yourself to buy this.
One of the Wii's first and last epic JRPGs is the best thing to emerge from this troubled genre in the past five years.

http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/118/1187845p1.html

Eurogamer: 9.0

Xenoblade Chronicles may lack the universal appeal of Miyamoto's adventure series; its tendency toward team management makes this a game for those who prize complexity and numbers over economy and colours. But it shares Hyrule's all-important sense of place and delivers that same heady shot of wonder to the spirit as you explore.
 No Japanese RPG has more successfully married its various components this hardware generation. It's a game that invites us to reassess an entire genre, pointing to a bold future while nodding its respect towards the past. It's a towering triumph.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-08-15-xenoblade-chronicles-review

Edge Magazine UK: 9.0

Wonders and terrors are equally positioned in the world to imbue even the slightest diversion off the beaten track with drama and anticipation. When married to one of the strongest battle systems in the genre and a cast of characters and story that twist convention, this world becomes irresistible. It’s a potent return to form for Takahashi, then, a glowing comeback for the Japanese RPG, and an injection of creativity for some tired hardware. Xenoblade Chronicles manages to impress, enrich and, best of all, inspire wonder

http://www.next-gen.biz/reviews/xenoblade-chronicles-review

N-Europe: 10

The home-console JRPG has been treated shamefully poorly this generation. It is unfair that this fact may go some way in dampening the quickly-building consensus that Xenoblade Chronicles is by some way the best title that the genre has produced for years. But make no mistake; we have something special on our hands here. Not only is it easily the most exciting original IP to release on Wii, it is that brand new, quality, hardcore Nintendo title that her fans have been screaming out for since the dawn of the console. You will be exploring, collecting and side-questing for months to come. Then in years to come, once the dust has settled, Xenoblade Chronicles might just be whispered on the lips of Nintendo gamers in the same unparalleled regard as Tales of Symphonia, The World Ends With You and Chrono Trigger. Take up the Monado; it’s time to go and discover a whole new world.

Saling The World: Xenoblade Chronicles Sees Big First-Week Sales
http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/36680/Saling_The_World_Xenoblade_Chronicles_Sees_Big_FirstWeek_Sales.php
 

[Malutki]

Europejski oddział Nintendo wykonał kawał dobrej roboty lokalizując kilka świetnych tytuł z kraju kwitnącej wiśni. Poproszę jeszcze o składankę Fatal Frame.
Międzyczasie w oddziale Amerykańskim ...

 

[Mnichu]

Xenoblade jest pierwszą grą, z którą moje Wii ma problemy. Za każdym razem muszę najpierw odpalić inny tytuł, żeby Xeno się wczytało

[Palpantine]

Płyta dual layer. Laser w Wii jak jest przybrudzony ma problemy z wczytywaniem takich płyt. Miałem to z SSBB, ale przeczyściłem i później z Metroid Other M nie było takich jazd.

Ty lepiej napisz czy warto kupić, bo w tej generacji zawiodłem się na jrpgach i nie wiem czy inwestować kaskę

[Mnichu]

Wiem, że DL, ale ani z Metroid Other M, ani z SSBB nie mam problemów. Gra okrutnie warta polecenia. Kupiłem między innymi ideowo, żeby dołożyć cegiełkę do tego, że warto produkować i lokalizować takie gry na Wii (po to żeby grać też, oczywiście), ale tak mnie wciągnęło, że codziennie wstaję przed pracą dwie godziny wcześniej i odpalam Xeno

[Palpantine]

No to nie wiem z czym problem.

Dzięki za odpowiedź, jutro urodziny, przynajmniej będę wiedział co zrobić z kaską.

[Malutki]

Też kiedyś miałem podobny problem z Brawl'em ,zamówiłem wtedy specjalny śrubokręt i wyczyściłem dokładnie laser. Od bodajże trzech lat nie rozkręcałem Wii i nadal mi czyta bezproblemowo płyty dual layer  . Jest jeszcze drugi sposób na przeczyszczenia lasera ,zakup Wii Lens Cleaning Kit.

[Mnichu]

Znam te różne magiczne sposoby. Zastanawia mnie tylko to, że z Xeno jest problem, a z innymi grami na płytach dual layer (Smash, Metroid) tego problemu nie ma. Tak czy siak cleaning kit już do mnie jedzie
