Dizzyshroom8 I've always liked tackling brand new games, especially more complicated ones. I think playing the game will help me understand more than these survival guides though.
+Brian Wesley Yeah, this game is probably the most in depth Nintendo published game I've ever played. Usually they have strong, simple gameplay. It's surprisingly good, but took a few hours to really get into. (a bit after the first encounter with the sentient aliens)
Xenoblade Chronicles X is definitely my Game of the Year. A seamless open world, beautiful visuals, amazing soundtrack, deep combat system, layers upon layers of game mechanics, and a charming cast of characters. I highly recommend that you buy this game if you haven't already. On a side note, I really enjoyed this Survival Guide video series. I hope that Nintendo produces a similar video series for future games. For example, open world Zelda Wii U? One can dream.
I should warn those who plan on picking it up, this game does not hold your hand. It'll give you the bare basics, and after that whether you succeed or fail will be determined on your skills.
+AshXXMayftw That's one of the reasons why I love the Xenoblade Chronicles series so much. When I start a new game, I don't have to go through lengthy tutorials all-over again
+OmegaMKX While I agree that most of the stuff doesn't need a tutorial and should get figured out on your own, I'd rather have a complete documentation (optional of course). I haven't played that much, but I doubt I'll ever figure out on my own what every stat does, what every weather effect does, what every single buff/debuff symbol means and so on. Maybe I'm just not looking at the right places and there's exactly what I need somewhere, but if there's not, I'm a bit disappointed.
+Sniperfuchs Oh dude. It totally has a digital manual that is actually super useful if you need it. It's quite in depth so I'd suggest going to it when a particular icon seems confusing. I had to do it to understand what certain icons on frontier nav and debuffs do. Want me to tell you how to get to it? It's super easy.
Best open world JRPG to date but it could use more storylines. It is fantastic but suffers from MMO quest syndrome. Cutscene, grind, cutscene. I would like more banter and non core storylines. That said, there is steady progression and the story content available is well presented.
+IMMentat Normal and affinity missions are fun and they have better story than the main storyline lol. Also i never had to grind in this game once and every time i do a story chapter i'm way over leveled for it. Also if u want more non core storylines then go do normal quests, there's 193 of them and they all feel meaningful when you make a decision with lots of different outcomes and twists with the exception of a selected few that serve just to unlock stuff which is good!
+Jumpmon Thank goodness planet Mira has UA-cam otherwise we'd be doomed. Ok guys time to release Chuggaaconroy and all the other UA-camrs from their pods so then we can watch more UA-cam episodes!
+blackhole xendocks I don't know if you are joking or not but there's this trend and ongoing joke with reports and Miiverse posts where L+A will favorite the post. Most the posts are basically asking you to favorite the comment.
This explains why squad tasks felt so random. Good info. I just wish the blank tablet screen would be replaced by an enemy weak point/limb selector, sub targeting can be tougher than the combat itself.
+Nawaf Al (Nef) from what I hear it's not as good as chronicles. but I don't think that's necessarily correct because the story for X is pretty f****** legit!!!
+Danpire Ugh! I hate L+A spams!! I fell for it far too many times until I realised they were posts being favourited! .... They said I'll get stuff like pizza damn it! lol
AND there's an online component. So much content for $60 compared to other "AAA" releases. Remember when "AAA" meant more than having a huge advertising budget?
+Kamikazi Lucas Cuz those baegflea thingys are nesessary for I think the skell lisense and the game never tells you where they are and you have to look for 391748287492 years and goggle didn't help alot(well now it does since the answers been updated)
These guides don't even scratch the surface of what this game has to offer. I am level 13 and still feeling lost. But I like that... I like finding my way through the game, uncovering each level of depth that it offers.
"When you're ready to begin a quest, proceed to the yellow gate. If you're watching this Survival Guide, there's a 98.7 chance, you're not ready" Well, I guess I'm that 1.3% badass individual. Who's trying to kill Telethia Plume today?
worth it. but there is a chance you might get frustrated on the requirements before going onto chapter 4 and so on. I suggest you look online for that.
i'm actually going for 100% so no rush here, 45 hours of play, 35% primordia, 35% oblivia, 30% noctilum, 15% sylvalum and 15% cauldros, doing side missions and exploring got my skell license in 30 minutes! Don't see why some people had trouble getting it....
Same here. I'm taking my time. I'm doing every mission I find, filling the collectopedia and sometimes I forget about the missions and go exploring a cave nearby, etc. I'm over 60% on all regions and haven't started chapter 11. I don't get why some people just rush through the story missions and then say the game has bad pacing.
I purchased both Xenoblade games but have yet to pick up my Wii U. I will be getting it in march and I am so stoked to play them that nothing I play right now will wet my appetite. My only issue now is deciding which to play first!
Goodness, that's a lot of information to process on those menus. Better study up on these survival guides so I can remain sharp as a BLADE once I visit the planet of Mira.
+GoldenTriforce No this is the problem... your stuck in your pod meaning you are dreaming about earth after having your head banged causing memory-loss during the crash. While you are dreaming you are also typing on your pod-I the new computer system. So you enjoy the break and we will release you when we find you.
+nolackinkiltdatnikkah I get you argument, but in my case, my brother was gonna buy the game but he doesn't has an easy time with english.. so he didn't bought it..
***** You've got some major dedication if you're that far. 170 hours in 2 weeks... that's like an average of 12 hours a day every day. So basically you've played a week's worth in 2 weeks.
Of all the survival guide here, nothing, NOTHING prepare me for the Biahno Tragedy. Damn that was dark. And watching murders occurred right in front of my eyes because I was late to react. It left a bitter taste in my mouth. Great game! I was completely absorbed into the world of planet mira.
Hi um I know this doesn't have anything to do with the video but I just wanna say that I get bullied on my bus but all because I play games too much but I just tell them that they don't affect me and I've learned to not care what they say but at first it was hard and I would get very sad but I always had you to be nice to me and also k.k. Slider and my villagers then I got the best friends that are very similar to me and it is all thanks to you so even though you made life rough obviously not on purpose but you have made my life amazing a lot more than rough so I just have to thank you you have kept my life running and kept me happy
+Negro Montana en cambio le dejaron el idioma "Francés", eso me hace pensar que probablemente quien estaba a cargo no estaba en todos sus sentidos, es latinoamericano, y el juego lo podemos jugar en ingles o en francés...... eso si que suena lógico.... T.O . Pero no te preocupes ya se están juntando firmas, por la omisión y falta de respeto hacia los consumidores latinos, la última vez que deje mi firma ya habían revesado las 5000 firmas electrónicas, por lo menos para que sepas que no eres la única que esta descontenta con el tema.
I have a question.... If you join a random team will they be around the same level as you or will it be COMPLETELY random?? sorry if this sounds dumb I am just curious
Your skell becomes available after chapter 6. Completing chapter 8 and a special affinity mission will bless you with a flying skell, and that's awesome ;-)
@nintendo I cant believe you are releasing Minecraft on Wiiu this same friday and we dont even have a short video explaining its highlights and how it works on the console.
This game looks so complex.
And I love it.
Yep I got to the soul voice menu and was completely lost,.... took a while to get used to the setup
Dizzyshroom8 I've always liked tackling brand new games, especially more complicated ones. I think playing the game will help me understand more than these survival guides though.
+Brian Wesley Yeah, this game is probably the most in depth Nintendo published game I've ever played. Usually they have strong, simple gameplay.
It's surprisingly good, but took a few hours to really get into. (a bit after the first encounter with the sentient aliens)
***** Hi welcome to Xeno-gears/blade
vaporfarts I see. How long did it take for you to acquire a Skell?
Xenoblade Chronicles X is definitely my Game of the Year. A seamless open world, beautiful visuals, amazing soundtrack, deep combat system, layers upon layers of game mechanics, and a charming cast of characters. I highly recommend that you buy this game if you haven't already.
On a side note, I really enjoyed this Survival Guide video series. I hope that Nintendo produces a similar video series for future games. For example, open world Zelda Wii U? One can dream.
There is actually an Open World Zelda Wii U in development should release this year.
Lol
Well the dream came true
Whoever narrates these should be in more Nintendo related stuff! This stuff is awesome. I'll be joining BLADE around Christmas, I expect. :3
+Platinum Trainer I welcome you to Blade, Mira is a tough planet to survive on, hope you can handle it :p
+Platinum Trainer We Curators bid you welcome, and hope that you make the proper division choice (wink wink, nudge nudge)
+peterb1x I'll do my best. We WILL survive!
OmegaMKX Oh, I think I know exactly what division(s) to choose.
I can't wait to get this game! I'm getting it in less than a week!
Smooth Gundam colors on that Skell.
So I wasn't the only one who noticed. The classic gundam color scheme looks alright on these skells
let's hope that they release something similar to gundam kits 1/144 in the near future 😉💓
+Senario You mean Gundham Tanaka!!!
+Senario It might be a Xenogears reference, the main character gets a mech that shares that color scheme.
What about the EVA's
I should warn those who plan on picking it up, this game does not hold your hand. It'll give you the bare basics, and after that whether you succeed or fail will be determined on your skills.
+AshXXMayftw That's part of what makes it good, no annoying, super-long tutorials in your way
+OmegaMKX It's not a bad thing at all, but for a modern gamer, it may be pretty tough since most games today hold your hand all the way through.
+AshXXMayftw That's one of the reasons why I love the Xenoblade Chronicles series so much. When I start a new game, I don't have to go through lengthy tutorials all-over again
+OmegaMKX While I agree that most of the stuff doesn't need a tutorial and should get figured out on your own, I'd rather have a complete documentation (optional of course).

Already got a 100 hours into the game. The wait was so worth it. Game of the Year confirmed.
Best open world JRPG to date but it could use more storylines. It is fantastic but suffers from MMO quest syndrome. Cutscene, grind, cutscene. I would like more banter and non core storylines. That said, there is steady progression and the story content available is well presented.

+Link&Watch .9 A Proper Chopper quest left me feeling guilty of murder. Did not expect the outcome...
Loved this little series. Thank you for this. Hope this narrator sticks around too. He's awesome
Oh! OH! SO YOU RELEASED THE GUIDE A FEW DAYS AFTER EARTH'S END!?!?!?!?
lol
+Jumpmon Yeah, it's too late for this video, I'm afraid.
+Jumpmon typical Nintendo ;-)
+Jumpmon Thank goodness planet Mira has UA-cam otherwise we'd be doomed. Ok guys time to release Chuggaaconroy and all the other UA-camrs from their pods so then we can watch more UA-cam episodes!
+Big Feared Balloon (BigFearedBalloon) 8
This game is actually one of the best multiplayer games i've ever played with a friend
"BLADE will not reimburse you upon your death" Greeeeeaaaaaat!
Who else already finished the story but is watching this for some reason?
I'm lvl 60 with a 50 frame farming for an ares 90. I just like the videos lol
+Brentinitis LPs I don't know how you made it so fast!
+Mourossonero It's called he has no life and spends his entire life on his Wii U.
+Gabriel Megna Hey that's something I wish I could do!
I just reached level 25, because school. Ya know?
These survival guides are awesome. 90 hours in and I STILL haven't tried (grasped) the multiplayer mode(s). Haven't even beat the game yet.
Don't press L+A guys.
Jk
nicholas andrzejkiewicz Why?
+blackhole xendocks I don't know if you are joking or not but there's this trend and ongoing joke with reports and Miiverse posts where L+A will favorite the post.
Most the posts are basically asking you to favorite the comment.
LeL
+blackhole xendocks Specifically, there is an achievement for having a liked post I think.
I half expected to hear "the Earth is no more and you've all been dead for about 10 days."
This explains why squad tasks felt so random. Good info. I just wish the blank tablet screen would be replaced by an enemy weak point/limb selector, sub targeting can be tougher than the combat itself.
awesome game!
+Trill Talk This is the first Xenoblade game I've played and the story is awesome. Can't compare though!
+Nawaf Al (Nef) from what I hear it's not as good as chronicles. but I don't think that's necessarily correct because the story for X is pretty f****** legit!!!
Indoril Nerevar I didn't play the first one but Xenoblade x's story got me so excited. It's been 10+ years since I got that excited over a game story.
?like ooo
+Nawaf Al (Nef) a as d I
I love this game so much & I love flying around Mira peacefully
Clever title, Nintendo.
+Nicholas (Blue_Eye_33) hope you like that. its everywhere in the game.. the same one... all the time.
Squad, ROLL OUT!
...sorry I just really wanted to say that.
Miltank uses Rollout!
Welcome to New L+A!
Oh God... I think we've all had it up to here with L+A comments.
+Danpire perfect, that was perfect...
+Danpire Ugh! I hate L+A spams!! I fell for it far too many times until I realised they were posts being favourited! .... They said I'll get stuff like pizza damn it! lol
+Nick Pyro Amen
+Nawaf Al (Nef) I just turned the posts off.
Nintendo please bring us more Games of this quality and attention to detail!
AND there's an online component. So much content for $60 compared to other "AAA" releases. Remember when "AAA" meant more than having a huge advertising budget?
Welcome to new L & A!
Finally you guys posted this video.... after 40 plus hours into the game finally you guys posted.....
this game is amazing. i started last monday and i'm about 90 hours in so far
6:44 😢RIP MIIVERSE
7:18
dear lord, a lot of people will wish they watched this video once they get to that part. Woulda saved me about 3 hours XD
+TheLonelyGoomba why did you want the free report
+Kamikazi Lucas Cuz those baegflea thingys are nesessary for I think the skell lisense and the game never tells you where they are and you have to look for 391748287492 years and goggle didn't help alot(well now it does since the answers been updated)
Just beat this game, it's amazing!
ALWAYS GO OVER YOUR LEVEL REQUIRED I LEARNED THAT THE HARD WAY!!
I already bought my copy a few days ago. No regrets, Those graphics and gameplay are INCREDIBLE for being only Wii U.
It is imperative that you get this game. Waaaaay too good to pass up! Monolith really struck it out of the park.
These guides don't even scratch the surface of what this game has to offer. I am level 13 and still feeling lost. But I like that... I like finding my way through the game, uncovering each level of depth that it offers.
Why is there no SPANISH SUBTITLES in NLA?, is Los Angeles damn it.
Donald Trump didn't want any immigrants on the ships. He went down with earth though. 👍
+Green Xenon XD
+Green Xenon a true hero
There has to be an MMO spinoff based on the Xenoblade universe - it would be a true successor to Phantasy Star Online.
+Adam K if they made servers for this the game is beyond big enough for it to be mmo based... it would be so epic
#WiiUMasterrace
+Phoenix Wright - #WiiUMasterrace If only =/
Will this be on the test?
Got my wii u at chrismas !!! already got this game !!! can't wait anymore !
"When you're ready to begin a quest, proceed to the yellow gate. If you're watching this Survival Guide, there's a 98.7 chance, you're not ready"
Well, I guess I'm that 1.3% badass individual. Who's trying to kill Telethia Plume today?
3:27 is that overdrive?
i have yet to come across to doing something like that.
And Im level 20 and around chapter 5.
May get a Wii U and this for Christmas. I just hope it is long enough and gives you enough to explore.
Picking this game up tomorrow, finally. For those of you who own it, what are your impressions so far?
90+ hours playing it and it's still far from getting boring. Also, I'm still learning things even after all this time
Hambs23 Sounds good! Is it better than the Wii entry?
+Nostalgic_Chaos In my opinion, yes.
peterb1x Can't wait. Thanks!
worth it. but there is a chance you might get frustrated on the requirements before going onto chapter 4 and so on. I suggest you look online for that.
This game shall be mine soon.
Love the OST!
This game looks sooo cool I have got to get this :)
Nintendo PLEASE MAKE A SEQUEL!!!!!
Press L+A for dank memes
i'm actually going for 100% so no rush here, 45 hours of play, 35% primordia, 35% oblivia, 30% noctilum, 15% sylvalum and 15% cauldros, doing side missions and exploring got my skell license in 30 minutes! Don't see why some people had trouble getting it....
+crookim YEsss, that is how you should play it.
Same here. I'm taking my time. I'm doing every mission I find, filling the collectopedia and sometimes I forget about the missions and go exploring a cave nearby, etc. I'm over 60% on all regions and haven't started chapter 11. I don't get why some people just rush through the story missions and then say the game has bad pacing.
Game of the year.
i love this game its so good better be GOTY
+Monado Boy (Flame Rock) GOTY already went to Witcher 3
+WiiSage He's not talking about The Geoff Keighley Awards, Willy.
+WiiSage Double post.
TonyKanameKuran I have no idea what that is
WiiSage The Game Awards 2015. Get it?
30 hours in and finally this video starts to make sense!
Getting Xenoblade Chronicles X and Mario & Luigi Paper Jam Bros. on Christmas. :3
HYPE for presentation
Already 106 hours into the game and I still haven't finished chapter 10. This game is amazing.
I wonder if this info applies for the Switch Definitive Editon?
the music is so Good great job
who else is obssessed with these guide videos
6:45 Does anyone know the official name of this remix?
I purchased both Xenoblade games but have yet to pick up my Wii U. I will be getting it in march and I am so stoked to play them that nothing I play right now will wet my appetite. My only issue now is deciding which to play first!
"98.7 chance"
Goodness, that's a lot of information to process on those menus. Better study up on these survival guides so I can remain sharp as a BLADE once I visit the planet of Mira.
How Sharp?
not as sharp as my feels
***** fair enough
+Monado Boy (Flame Rock) people walk within 10 meters and leave with a gash in their arm
There's so much going on in this game, it's a little overwhelming.
Nice this will really help the dead people now GG
Plot twist?
This game would be the best if there was a slider for dialogue/music volume.
My favourite game EVER!
What an overwhelming game. This is the perfect game for RPG lovers
Is it bad that I didn't see the whole title and thought it said "The sharpest tool in the shed"
wow this feels so real
Okay... now I think they were just be inaccurate, because the Earth still exists as far as I can tell.
So there was no conspiracy???
+GoldenTriforce No, you are most definitely on Mira. Can't you tell? I see Primordia out my window.
I'm watching this right now in my new skell. You must be living under a rock.
+GoldenTriforce No this is the problem... your stuck in your pod meaning you are dreaming about earth after having your head banged causing memory-loss during the crash. While you are dreaming you are also typing on your pod-I the new computer system. So you enjoy the break and we will release you when we find you.
Big Feared Balloon Then how are you contacting me? If I am dreaming, then I should have no contact with you.
GoldenTriforce Because.... I AM AWESOME! Mwahahahaha!
I need spanish subtitules for the america version
+nolackinkiltdatnikkah XD
+nolackinkiltdatnikkah I get you argument, but in my case, my brother was gonna buy the game but he doesn't has an easy time with english.. so he didn't bought it..
+55urmom i didnt use it xd
well that's the easiest way to learn the English language trough movies music and games.
+lone wolf Why Spain does have subtitles in Spanish and not us? Work is already done!!!! Nintendo works too bad
*Play Time:* 90 hours
*Chapter Progress:* Chapter 8
*Level:* 35
This game has only been out for a week and a half. WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY LIFE??
***** You've got some major dedication if you're that far. 170 hours in 2 weeks... that's like an average of 12 hours a day every day. So basically you've played a week's worth in 2 weeks.
Of all the survival guide here, nothing, NOTHING prepare me for the Biahno Tragedy. Damn that was dark. And watching murders occurred right in front of my eyes because I was late to react. It left a bitter taste in my mouth.
Great game! I was completely absorbed into the world of planet mira.
I see Compa made it safely to Mira during 2:05. I wonder if she misses Iffy.
Wow this is pretty hardcore ! I might go buy this myself
I'm really feeling it!
About time.
90 hours in, level 46, such a great game!
0:50 WhiteGlint. Someone's been playing Armored Core here
For the free reports, you can hook up your USB keyboard and use it to type out messages.
Hi um I know this doesn't have anything to do with the video but I just wanna say that I get bullied on my bus but all because I play games too much but I just tell them that they don't affect me and I've learned to not care what they say but at first it was hard and I would get very sad but I always had you to be nice to me and also k.k.

9. It's chapter 9. Not 8.
you're right ;-)
Personally I don't care for multiplayer experiences but the other 4 guides were fun to watch.
Xenoblade as an MMORPG. Yes, please!
6:33 Meanwhile: GHOSTWALKER!! OFFENSE STANCE!!! RISING BLADE!!! TORNADO BLADE!!!
man once u getta skell and then a flight pack along with a g-buster u feel like u can take on the whole planet^^
Does anyone know when the sales figures for this game will come out?
So has this game got main missions, it looks great and all but the host didn't said anything about main missions
Finally!
The sharpest "BLADE"?!! I bet Chuggaa saw this.
@nintendo
I cant believe you are releasing Minecraft on Wiiu this same friday and we dont even have a short video explaining its highlights and how it works on the console.
Finally.
Anyone else wish they could be apart of this world, despite all the danger?
most common report: ''shut up tatsu!''
is the monado a secret weapon in X?
i swear to god that nintendo has trunks' phone number on speed dial.
In behalf of the interceptors, welcome to BLADE. I hope you will all make the right decision and join our division.
Devils third! Hype!
What model is the skell hes using?
