SPOILERS:

I get that they have to set up a sequel (I'm assuming that's where this is leading?) and that they need to explain why everyone is on a new map. I haven't played act 3 yet but Im pretty sure I know how it ends. I feel like it defeats the point of the game by just destroying Mira and moving on.

Act 2 especially feels like it exists to convince the player that you need to move on. I feel very similar to the characters that wanted to stay behind due to their attachments with certain places or species. I don't like that they have to suddenly leave Mira. I've been playing this game since I was about 10, and I'm 20 now. This game and Mira have literally been around for half my life and mean a lot to me. And now playing the game, and doing other side quests feels kinda pointless when I remember what's awaiting me in the story. I'm about to get my first Area 90, something I never actually did in the original game, and I don't feel excited about it when I feel like nothing in this game matters anymore.

What's funny is I didn't get this feeling with Xenoblade 3 at all, despite there being a similar ending, although even more devastating as the characters (presumably) don't remember anything. I'm not sure if it's the nostalgia, or if xc3 handled it better, if it's because I saw 3s universe destruction early in the game so it was less of a shock. I'm not sure. I do think chapter 13 has the potential to be a good story however, just as another game. It doesn't really seem to fit with the rest of X

I think part of it is that SO MUCH was put into the world itself. This game has detailed notes on everything. There is information on the behaviors of the creatures of Mira, there's environmental story telling, so many mysteries in all the planets ruins. Even most missions center around the planet itself and learning to survive ON MIRA. The game puts so much effort into Mira and made it feel so alive. The other games have this to some degree, but only X has a biography written for every single creature in the game easily available in the main menu. Many animals have actual personalities, and a lot are favorites among fans. I know they took genetic data from some species on Mira, which made me feel a bit better, but it's not enough.

Anyways I will be ignoring chapter 13 until I 100% this game.

I've only completed 2 acts of the Xenoblade X epilogue, and I already have to pretend it doesn't exist to feel motivated to do any side quests

I'm gonna go with kinda???? I voted yes, because it is very good in some aspects, really anything having to do with melia is good. She has good character design (not overly sexualized and makes sense to her character and the context of the story), plays an important part of the story (her actions have consequences on the plot, her story is treated like it matters, she doesn't exist for male characters motivation, has a crush on shulk but moves past it and this is NOT her main character development) she also has a unique play style that is interesting and is one of the better party members in the game.

When it comes to other female characters, like Sharla who is suffering from Xenoblade 2 levels of sexy character design, is the worst party member in gameplay (although this is subjective and it's because she's a medic in a game where support characters are useless past early game). And fiora whos existence is 70% motivation for shulk. I could go into this more but I don't really have the time to, you get the idea.

I still said yes because of melia, however I completely understand anyone who says no

xenoblade 1 pls 🙏

Apparently "sink in the shit/mud/sand" is not an English expression but a Dutch one that I translated without thinking about it.

“Europeans live longer because they eat FRESH FOOD!!!!” Bitch, they live on cigarettes. They live longer because they have universal healthcare. I’m convinced America is obsessed with inventing things that are killing us so you don’t have to face the actual problems.

To be fair, this isn't an AI specific thing. Most of the time when I look up vegetarian related things I get vegan results, and have to dig a bit to see why something isn't vegan to see if it's vegetarian or not. Also the amount of times I've looked up vegetarian whatever and gotten generic health food stuff, or CHICKEN as a result is wild

Like I can guarantee that being vegetarian or vegan doesn't make you healthy. I already have a mild eating disorder, and have eaten like 5 ice cream sandwiches in the last 24 hours. Carbohydrates are my best friend, and I don't want your health diet crap showing up when I want to see if there's dead animal in something or not.

But also fuck AI specifically, at least the above issue probably has more to do with a lack of information about vegetarianism due to it being less trendy compared to other diets, and not lying to me about something containing milk being non vegetarian

Another reason to hate googles AI: it doesn't know the difference between vegetarian and vegan

I'm vegetarian but not vegan and this thing has really told me things aren't vegetarian for containing honey or butter (things vegetarians are fine with)

Description: Terebras are technically omnivorous, though their main diet consists of aquatic organisms snagged from rivers, such as fish and shellfish. Their ear-shaped bony ruffs can be positioned into a drill-like shape, an ability they use to fight enemies and build dwellings. Once excavated, a terebra den will extend deep underground and house the entire pack of a dozen or so terebras. The entrance is constantly guarded by several pack members that stand erect on their hind legs. Terebra fur has commercial value due to its excellent heat insulation and softness—so long as the barbed bristles are removed.

for no reason whatsoever here’s a reminder that if you consider yourself a leftist/punk/abolitionist/anarchist/radical in any sort of way and get called into jury duty, you are to become the most square person on earth during the jury questionnaire!!!

don’t be that guy who says fuck the police in the jury questionnaire! that just gets you sent home! if you want to generate change, interact with the case and use your jury vote for good! ESPECIALLY if it’s a high profile case!

When somebody asks “How do I refer to a non binary person formally instead of sir or ma’am” and you answer “do not refer to me” that doesn’t answer their question actually
