So today I attempted to get through Chapter 9 but got stuck on the big fight with the Skells. Probably the most intense battle I've fought thus far.
I hate Sylvalum.
Everyone died right at the end and my Skell was almost dead so I had to go in on foot. I lost. He had no health left and I lost.
I swear we fought for at least a half hour. I failed once so the difficulty lowered and I had scouted a lv 60 but we still lost. Elma kept dying so the scout had to keep reviving her. Oddly enough the scout went down so easy with 6k health so idk what that tells me about later levels.
Oh well, it was a fun battle and I leveled up from those I did defeat so I guess I'll just keep trying.
I would definitely recommend it. Massive worlds and endless missions will keep you busy for weeks. I'm having so much fun with it. Read up on stuff first before you get it though, there's a lot I wish I knew when I first started playing.

I will check it out then! Does it have any kind of online functionality? Because i really want more games like that, i currently only have Splatoon, Smash Bros., Mario Kart 8 and Bayonetta 2 as online games.

Yep! It's kinda confusing so I'll explain it as well as I can.
After playing the first 3 or 4 chapters, you get the ability to join squads. These squads can have up to 32 people. Every hour, the squad gets a lost of 5 things, this can be enemies to kill or collectibles to collect. You aren't forced to do these missions though so don't worry about it, it's more of something you can do if you have time. You also aren't physically playing with other squad members, as in you won't be able to see any of them running around in your game. After you check at least 1 item off the list, you gain access to Squad missions. This is where you and 3 other people (or less. You can do it alone if you're like that as well.) Join up and do a normal mission together. These are really fun. The more items you check off the hourly list, the more and more difficult the challenges are. There's also a live chat in squads, but it's not that great since messages con only have 48 characters max for some reason. :/
After playing this game non-stop for over 200 hours, I've pretty much done all the missions and most of the board missions... now all that's left is affinity missions... which I've done most of.
I also still need to recruit Mia but I'm too afraid to just wander around Cauldros looking for stuff. >->
I've taken a break from this game, my Wii U says it's been almost a month. I I only have a bit over 100 hours put in. ;_;
Mastermind is the only class I've used for pretty much the entire game. Even when I switch to a different class to level it up, I still keep my Raygun and Knife. I did try out the Photon Saber once, it seems fun to use but I only had 1 or 2 arts for it, so I'll try it again later when I have more arts.
I spent 80% of the game as a Full Metal Jaguar before realizing I'd be better off with another class since Elma could take care of that. I just recently hit rank 10 of Duelist and I'm currently working my way through Enforcer. I'm really just working through for skills I want though, my go-to weapons are the longsword and dual guns since they have my favorite arts.
On that note, I really want to get Ghost Factory but I doubt I'll ever be able to complete that affinity mission. >->
Sylvalum is way more terrifying imo. Things that pop up out of nowhere and all those zigs stationed in random places. I'm deathly afraid of those Xe-doms too. Had to fight one for a mission and one hit left my lv 50 Skell with only 64 HP o-o
For it's a tie between Astral Crusader and Galactic Knight, I love them both cause of their weapons (Lances, Sniper Rifles, Beam Sabers and F***'N BEAM FUNNELS!), play styles and their arts dish out a lot of damage especially in my infinite overdrive builds.
I've got a few relevant things to say about the game, so I bumped this thread.
First off, the BLADE report feature is disabled since Miiverse ended on November 7th. Aside of an achievement that's tied with the now-inaccessible service, I haven't played enough of the game to tell exactly how this'll impact the experience.
Second, Monolith Soft president has recently expressed interest on porting Xenoblade Chronicles X to Nintendo Switch. Not much else to say about, but I figured this'll please quite a number of player.
