Graphics need a lot of polishing but it looks sweet for what they showed us. 

[NintendoReport]

This is looking fantastic. The diversity of the world is stunning.

The game has a April 29 release for japan.  So we will proubly see added polish in the final release, and a long wait for the English Dub.  early fall/late summer... hopefully.

This game is georgous!

The graphics are exceptionally polished. The worst thing I saw was some Zfighting on the flora in a couple spots.

 

This level of graphical fidelity is the overhead cost of having scale this massive on the wii u.

 

Its the same on any other system. The bigger your world, the lower the fidelity. This is why ffXV doesnt have the same level of graphical fidelity as PT.

So Nintendo uploaded the trailer in 60 fps.. does that mean anything?

I was in awe when I saw this during the direct. Looks gorgeous!

[Socalmuscle]

Whoa.

I've been waiting so long it seems like the his game is just a fairy tale.

But wow. I NEED this.

Pronto!

The graphics are insanity.

I play a LOTS of Destiny on PS4.

The skies here rival that. And with what appears to be a much larger scale

And the art direction here is better.

If it's putin April or May I'll be super excited.

May need to use some vacation time. Lol

in a open world RPG 60 or 30 doesn't affect it much but if 60 that's just Monolith sticking it to the haters lol.

Tho it might actually need it for mechs flying around fighting huge enemies in frantic battles.

And 1080p.

 

I dont think it means anything. The logo animation splash appears to be 60fps, but the gameplay footage itself looks like a very consistant 30 to me. Im also prety certain the game will be in 720p.

 

Otherwise, I think it means Nintendo and Monolith soft sacrificed puppies. SOOOOOOO many puppies. Mountains of adorable puppies.

[Scumbag]

720p 30fps with those graphics would still make ps4 and xbone blush.

I love how the camera in the mech is zoomed out when compared to earlier trailers. Makes the world look even bigger because the mechs are put in perspective. It also allows for more objects to be on screen.

[Raiden]

Ok in doing some research  I found a couple things I have a theory on. Granted it could be background that means nothing or something unlrelated but for the sake of argument I have a couple ideas I will post.

 

This thing can possibly match up with a few items from XB I will post
Could be this gate. That small door alone if a few hundred feet tall and the outer part extends past the screen aways. So that is one but there is more
maybe the big central part of the mechonis sword minus galahad fortress
 could be just a massive gear from anywhere off mechonis itself.
last one I feel is a out there idea but throwing it out anyway. One of the colonies. Even colony 6 or 9 what's left turned on it's side for whatever reason
Could be a crashed city from one of the ships that did not make it in story of XCX so that's what I think are some possibilities

I should also add me and my friend have a theory and have had since E3. This game could possibly be both a sequel and prequel. Now some of this will be a little spoiler ish but not putting in tags because I don't want this post interupted. So I will put a red line below this text to let you know NOT TO READ FURTHER.

==========================================================================

You better put that in spoiler tags right now. You don't talk about the ending of an RPG willy-nilly. The red line doesn't help much.

If you have played Xenoblade check the tag for maybe a mind bending twist on XCX.

If not do not click the tag.

Ok so a lot of the landscape is similar to Xenoblade. there are places you can match up eith Eryth Sea and Bionis Leg and such.

Shulk at least someone who looks like shulk teased in the initial trailer in 2013. Now that could be a troll in a create a character and make your own Shulk and really feel it. Could be someone related to him. That is not what parked our theory tho. The nippon did. Now it could be XB series moogle. That said if you thknk of the ending to Xenoblade he returned the universe to one with no gods. You saw in the ending both titans had crashed and became large land masses. How do we know he didn't create a normal universe again with planets? Maybe earth was returned to normal and they are now elsewhere. This planet very similar to earth. A bit out there bu who knows. So in XCX is many years perhaps centurties after XB. Humans arrive in Neo LA. Years later Kluas is born when humans colonized this planet. Well he does his experiment and Xenoblade world is born. Meaning the birth and death cycle never really ended,never really could. Just on a bigger scale than imagined before. Hell Alvis would be using Klaus and Shulk as pawns in a endless cycle and paradox.

Shulk wished for a world with no gods but that doe snot mean the cycle will end. Man creates god so the cycle can go on as Alvis needed Shulk to create a new cycle.

Chu evolved into the first Nopon, after she was crucified and died for our sins

I do feel like they are the series moogles, and the world design similarities are because its the same artists. The shulk was just a classic Takahashi troll, made using the create a character, you can easily identify the parts used in the character creator in several of the tree house videos.

But honestly, Its a xeno title. Nothing is anything and anything could be everything, and nothing is, or isnt, was or wasnt, until after the games over, and the scene after the credits play, where knowing takahashi, he could have one pivotal scene that brings it allll together. Or... We might have to wait until Xenoblade chronicles epiode 6 befoe we discover the links (Takahashi might finally be doing his 6 part epic hes always wanted to do, unrestrained, uncompromised)

Honestly, what this reminds me of, it looks like a reboot of Episode 1 of Xenogears (Xenogears was the fith, of a planned six part epic, for those wodering). The animated fmv intro to xenogears was the beginning of part 1, where Earth fleeing humans on a colony ship are shot down by a mysterious menace, crash land on an alien planet, and begin to survive on, and populate it, Chu's were one of the native life forms, (which I suspect Nopon are in X). and then it jumped to part 5 for the actual game.

Oooh, I have some non link to og xenoblade speculation on that giant ring. It would be cool if it was actually a massive jump gate for space ship sized transports or something.

Ooh, man it would be awesome if we got something like the yggdrasil from gears in xenoblade X. A huge flying mobile base you can dock up all your mechs at for refueling, and then Set out on missions from. After all, without something like that, you eventually could only get so far away from your base before running out of doll fuel! But with a mobile base of operations, you could land anywhere big enough, and set out to explore from there!!!
