Playing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. Not much new here, doing some side content while waiting for FrontNav minerals to give me what I need. Did some side quests, also finally found the dog, so was able to do tons of heart-to-heart.
Finally got the required mineral last night and went to start Chapter 7, when I realised I haven’t surveyed Oblivia enough! facepalm I remember checking it before and was sure I meet the required number, so I either it read the requriement wrong or my survey percentage wrong.
Anyways, with Skell, it shouldn’t take too long to do it. Also, got all my characters to level 30, so can buy Skells for them. Haven’t done that yet though, will do it soon.
The Surge time was pretty productive, completed the third area, and got some good upgrades, then went back to second area (that’s how the game flows), and now am stuck at the boss.
I am bit confused about this boss. It has two phases, I have gotten down first one now, can do it without losing much health, or sometimes, any health. The second phase has 4 robo-arms on the side walls, which keep attacking you when you are attacking the mail pillar / boss. You can destroy those 4 arms, but if kill the boss without destroying the arms, you get a very good weapon.
So, that’s where I am stuck, I want to kill the boss without destroying those arms, to get that weapons, but I am not sure if I am good enough to keep track of 5 different things and attack the boss while dodging them. Going to try a few more times, if it didn’t work out, will just destroy the arms.
Also got Street Fighter 6
I am more of a casual fighting game player, but still enjoy them every now and then, with a soft spot for Street Fighter and Soulcalibur games. So, just got it to play few rounds every now and then. Thinking about seeing if I can get anywhere in ranked, but not too concerned about it.
Ilandar mentioned PlanetSide 2 last week, and after looking it up, I wanted to give it a try. Plan to check it out over the weekend. I am not much of a MMO fan, so not sure how much I will actually play, but want to take a look.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
Playing Xenoblade X!
Was not in a gaming mood but still made some small progress on this.
Got my Ares 90 Skell, laughed hard at how ridiculously broken it is (see my edit on last week’s post for a video sample), did some further upgrading to it then went around the map cleaning all those Level 90+ Tyrants since they all die to a single attack now.
Also completed Chapter 13.2, so only one story mission to go.
So, I bought my first skell, and the difference between that and the free one is night and day. Previously, I wasn’t sure what’s such a big deal with these skells, they make traversal easy, but weren’t much for fighting, but now I can kill most enemies of my level so quickly!
What’s the point of classes once you get the skell though?
