Xenoblade Chronicles X director talks more about navigating the world
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 2 Comments
The world in Xenoblade Chronicles X is huge. However, there are several ways that navigation can be made easier in the game.
We’ve already seen elements like the Hopper Camera and Navigation Ball. On the Xenoblade Chronicles X Twitter account, director Koh Kojima mentioned that there’s also an auto-run feature as well as skip travel.
He said:
It appears that the Hopper Camera and Navigation Ball have been well received. For straight movement, there’s an auto-run feature and of course, there’s also the skip travel. As a developer, however, I feel conflicted because I want you to travel leisurely and enjoy the various views and the enemy placement…This is a tricky point, isn’t it.

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Monolith Soft updated the Japanese Xenoblade Chronicles X website today. We have a look at another character, plus some other game elements.
New character Ru is introduced by Monolith Soft (voiced by Ryotaro Okiayu). Ru is an inventor and native from Mira, who makes his living by selling his inventions to Nopon and other native species. He has a very curious personality and feels close to the newly arrived humans. Ru also is very familiar with idioms for some reason.
Head past the break for a bit of information the Segment Map and Data Probes.
