Xenoblade Chronicles X The Repair Job Affinity quest guide
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
A few days back, we reported on The Repair Job, one of Xenoblade Chronicles X’s most egregious affinity quests. It’s particularly troublesome if you accept it as soon as it becomes available – at that point, you likely won’t have many probes placed around Mira. The first half of this quest is straightforward: talk to an NPC and then head to Starfall Basin to search the White Whale debris for specific parts. Once you return to the West Gate, you’ll be given the option to agree with Lin (the mechanical error should be fixed) or Tatsu (you want to stop working and get something to eat). The scene frames Lin as the one in the right, so we’d imagine many players chose to sympathize with her. And if you do, the quest becomes a bit more complicated.

Atelier Yumia review for Nintendo Switch
Posted on 1 month ago by Elias in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: March 25, 2025
Developer: Gust
Publisher: Koei Tecmo
For over 25 years, the Atelier series has carved out a unique space in the RPG genre, blending alchemy-driven crafting, character-driven narratives, and a laid-back sense of adventure. Since its debut in 1997, the franchise has evolved through multiple generations, refining its various beloved systems while maintaining the core charm that maintains its long-lived fan base. Unlike the high-stakes, world-ending plots of traditional RPGs, Atelier games often focus on personal growth, discovery, and the joy of creation – where gathering ingredients and crafting the perfect item can be just as satisfying as toppling a powerful foe. At times you may do both in quick succession, even.
