Shion

Shulk. Also has the better crew and game.

To be honest I liked Rex more than Shulk. His outfit isn't really that stupid once you know the context of it and his personality is more laid-back and charming than Shulk's awkward autism.

With that said, they're both good protagonists. Too bad Elma sucked ass though. Her design is cool but fuck that unfinished plot bullshit.

Jesus Christ, Rex armor looks so fucking retarded

it's suppose to be a diving suit

>Thread was going good until someone instigated a needless flame war.

I wonder what his goal was.

this is a working suit, retard

Everyone's armor in this game looks retarded.

Not sucking Rex's cock isn't "instigating a flamewar"

juju is the best protag

They both suck.

It still looks retarded

It wasn't that. It was the fact that he kept insinuating that the mere existence of XC2 threads were a direct attack on Xenoblade 1 fans, which caused an irreparable thread derailment. Which is what we're doing now, I suppose.

The thread opened asking who the better protag was, you expect people to have a reasonable discussion?

Shion is actually the best xeno-protagonist
>dresses like a slut
>pretends to be a nerd
>is a total bitch
>cucks her beta orbitter
>everything is literally her fault
>you get to snap her neck in the boss fight repeatedly
She is modern woman incarnate.

I liked Rex more, but Shulk does its job.

Left=soul
Right=soulless

Joker

fpwp

Agreed, Shion is a massive cunt but that's exactly what makes her so well written. She's a female protag done right, unironically.
Though I'd say Fei is the best Xeno-protag because he manages to have depth while still being likeable.

I like the idea of Rex's design, but him being a manlet combined with the thigh window ruin for me.
Agreed with Elma though, her design is 10/10 but the game ends right as a it gets interesting so its too soon to tell if she's actually good.

Of course it is. Need to allow customers easy access to those thighs.

It took me ages to warm up to Rex's group, whereas with Shulk's gang, they always interacted with one another, and I generally liked following their adventure more. Rex and his gang didn't really excite me until like Chapter 7

Yeah, I ended up liking 2's gang more, but the early hours were rough. Making the mascot character one of the first party members instead of someone more interesting was a mistake.

>Shulk is 5'6
damn Rex is a turbomanlet

It's sad xenoblade players are too scared of this game to play it

Rex needs to be about a foot shorter in that for it to be accurate.

both are kinda underwhelming but Rex is the most boring motherfucker

I'd say shulk but I still like xenoblade 2 more

Mentally ill xfag lol

You thread still got deleted

Complete opposite for me, 1 was a slog for me to go through on the other hand I wish 2 was longer

Left picked worst girl so by default right is better.

Not my thread, you must be really weak to have to remind everyone one of your little faggy reports did something because jannies are retarded though

Clearly that doesn't mean anything, since you got banned a week ago and are still doing basically the exact same thing that got you banned in the first place.

Seethe more cuckoo bird.

Rex was a good character until he became a hero, the dude went from a hardworking responsible person to a whiny brat that was willing to ditch his new comrades and ignore them entirely until he was told maybe he could get a new powerup.

Cope

Shulk
Rex has a better team though. Not a single shitty character like Sharla nor a forced character like Melia.

Rex is a weak whiny little bitch, Shulk is better overall.

Shulk. Rex is just another "I FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE I LOVE" shonen shitter.

And you're a relentless faggot

>Not a single shitty character
Jesus, how can anyone look at those collections of tropes and think they're all good?

You mean like you did while multiple great Xeno threads full of XC2 fanart happened and you couldn't do a thing about it?

And XC2fags unironically think that makes him unqiue because they don't play JRPGs or watch anime.

They legit believe every single character in media is an edgelord besides Rex.

Collection of tropes in what way?
Each and every main character of XC2 has an interesting background, feelings, personalities, emotions, and depth to them.
Name 1 trope character in the main cast and explain how they're a trope character

Nice assumptions

Shulk but Rex is overhated.

>Actually admitting you post XC2 fanart in XC1DE
Yikes, didn't you yourself admit that was off-topic?

He didn't say that, he was probably referring to the art book release where you whined like a baby while scans got posted

Rex is justifiable hated.

This, I think both are fine and posters that want to make this a ''soul-souless'' tier comparison exaggerate too much.

How so? What about his character makes him unlikable?

Shonen Hero
Tsundere
Genki catgirl
Perverted Otaku mascot
Chuuni eyepatch man
Kuudere reverse trap

They all felt like they were written to be anime tropes first, and characters 2nd.

The XC1 characters all felt like natural characters, it's like comparing Persona characters to Dragon Quest characters.

It's mostly Xfag. He's seething because XC2 has the biggest fanbase of the three and people only talk about 1/2

hacked switch owners win yet again.

I never posted in the artbook thread, it was new content, so I let it slide, same with Torna threads.

>Only one person could possibly hate Rex
Why do XC2oomers always do this?

>Actually admitting you were banned
Yikers, can't you take a hint from the mods for once?

Shounen hero
Dudebro
Childhood love interest
Mentor figure
Cutesy ewok
Sheltered princess

Bros.... all the XC1 characters are just anime tropes bros...

I said mostly for a reason
Most people like 1 and 2.

They think they have a Barry, despite the fact the game has legit issues and criticisms.

Oh wait I forgot Sharla
You know, like everyone else did since she's the most forgettable character in the cast of any Xeno game.

Can't wait for the new Melia ending.

>They think they have a Barry
*ahem*

>Shounen hero
I would have said "Nerd"
>Dudebro
Not an anime cliche.
>Childhood love interest
Only one you have a point with, and she's gone most of the game
>Mentor figure
Not an anime trope
>Cutesy ewok
Not an anime trope, and he's not a pervert that's out of place in general's game like the sex jokes in XC2, because anime has to include sex jokes in children's media.
>Sheltered princess
Not an anime trope.

>They think
Lol no, Xfag literally prides himself in 'defending X's honor'
He's insane.

"Forgettable" isn't an anime trope.

>Silent protag
>Boss
>loli
>Annoying mascot
>literally who x16
X chads win again.

>Literally defending anime tropes
Jesus Xfag come on. I can describe those characters so easily. They have no depth for them because I can use 1-2 words for them like here.

>Fei (18)
>Shion (22)
>Shulk (18)
>Elma (29, true age probably higher)
>Rex (15)
>Lora (27)
I didn't mind Rex being the youngest MC, but we're totally going back to having an adult protagonist for XB3, right?

I'm really tired of people classifying character archetypes as "anime tropes". To begin with, when the fuck did tropes get limited to the realm of anime, and Japanese media?

Attached: 1586140108148.jpg (698x534, 40.05K)

No it's just a sign of a really shitty character
Sharla is the mourning bitch though. That's her trope and she never lives past it unlike the rest of the characters in 1/2, she's an X character that somehow ended up in one of the two GOOD xenoblade games (1/2)

Can anyone here explain to me why Rex is a good character without making reference to the titty monsters that fawn all over him for no reason?

He's just a dumb kid in over his head, but Pyra is so powerful that he can't pass as an underdog figure either

What the fuck was rex supposed to do against a guy who can apparently move at the speed of light

Those literally aren't anime tropes though, western media uses them too.

The XC2 ones are strictly anime, however.

Find me a single tsundere in western media.

That post is being sarcastic you tard, the point is that you can oversimplify any character with 1-2 words.

A character is good when you can say a lot about them besides their status and physical appearance, which is true for the cast of 1 and 2 (except Sharla)

The mean the one where she turns into a Telethia and Shulk is forced to banish her through a dimensional portal not even to a distant land but a whole different planet?

I honestly thought Shulk was 16

Rex is supposed to be 15 but his listed height is 4'11"
That's a manlet, even by Jap standards.

This is some coping here.

fucking ludo

there's actually concept art of a loli version of ayy Elma in X's artbook so she probably actually is 29 and just arrived on Earth when she was young.

>Guess which cuck this is
They both do it, so I can't.

Rex is a good character because he's someone that thinks little of himself and is entirely selfish, but is thrust into a situation that demands selflessness. At first he attempts to take the shortest path to success but through many trial and hardship comes to realize that there is no easy solution. In addition he is forced to come to terms with the idea that for once he might be forced to answer the call to action instead of rely on the Aegis, and through this realizes that he is more than just the inheritor of the Aegis but is a capable driver all by himself.
He develops as a character, he shares a lot of similarities to Tidus from FFX. He's not the chosen one, he's just a regular dude who ended up in a crazy situation. His life isn't parallel with Adam but it's pretty opposite in that way.

shulk will meet rex in the epilogue since alvis will transport the remains of bionis to earth in the end
screencap this

Rex giving me vibes.
