There are three ways people's employments are terminated here:

  • Fire.
  • Fira.
  • Firaga.

You can't escape. Embrace oblivion.

*PTSD*

Funny memes aside, I'm iffy toward that particular aspect of Xenoblade.
I was this close to dropping Xenoblade 2 after my third or so run-in with Rotbart. Those bird monsters didn't help matters, either (although these were only level 16 or so, it was still enough to kill me in the beginning stages).
If I hadn't been so mesmerized by how beautiful everything looked and intrigued by how the story would unfold from there (or if I was in a bad mood that time), I probably would have gone through with it, too.

Wraith will eventually have a fistfight on a boat with his rival?

Damn.

I will admit, Gormott kinda handles it a bit rough. If we compare it to the Bionis' Leg in Xenoblade 1, Rotbart is still there but he's a lot slower moving until he spots you and any of the high-level enemies are more off the beaten path (so no Lv.72 bird flying around). You also have a wider area to avoid him in. I realized this as i was playing through DE.

Still, I have to really wonder what Monolith Soft was thinking with that one.
"Hey, thanks for playing our game! ... NOW GET THE F*** OUTTA HERE!!!" XD

Speaking of DE, what are the changes the updates made?

Fixed the issue with Future Connected's subtitles and some of the OG songs not playing properly. Also removed the Tephra Cave glitch (damn) and i believe it expanded some of the display options.

I think it's part of why Xenoblade worlds end up feeling so alive. Just because you've reached a new area doesn't mean that the enemies there will all bow down to your level. Some are just stronger than others and it ain't neccisarily the Unique Monsters. Makes it feel like there's a genuine ecosystem.

Of course, the easiest anwser is that Xenoblade gameplay is clearly inspired by MMOs and "high-level enemies in low-level areas" is something found in MMOs. Pretty sure.

Not to denounce any criticisms you might have over this sort of thing but this is my explanation as to why Xenoblade does this in every game.

That explanation makes sense to me!
I just feel like they could have implemented it a little better that doesn't lead to those egregious frustrations for first time players.
Final Fantasy XII, for example, has an OP enemy right in the first area (level 29, when everything else is like level 1-4 or something), but the thing never attacks you unless you target it first.
Or just make it so you can actually escape from them instead of being on your deathbed the instant they notice you.

I kinda want to comission Shrimpy for one of those signature things, too, but at the same time, I don't want to burden him with stuff when he'd rather be doing other things.

I'm sorry don't die just so you don't have to talk to me 😧

Tamamo, Nera (name is Flora in JP) from DQV, and Makoto Niijima for probably my overall favorite girls, I suppose.
If Makoto doesn't fit well with color theme Tailtiu is fine too.

Also please don't if it's a bother, I felt bad about asking and I was trying to pass it off as a joke so you had a reason to not do it

Sure, I am a bit out of it, so it might be a few.
You don't know Tailtiu? I'm just joking, I know I made that as a "just in case"
