Dunno why but it reminds me of Fatal Frame 5

YES! What's the topic of the new video?
Edit: Looks like it's thread-worthy if it's as big as last time.

It's about battle system.
Nintendo Japan also just tweeted it out!
This one's focusing on combat it looks like.
I believe that's what they said they'd be doing after the previous one.
Finally! My favorite part is coming up.

ah, I see. This was probably meant as a fake out before the announcement lol
Yuss! It's been a month, I've been expecting you...
Thanks, finally updating the OP (sorry, bit late, ha ha).
Website updated, but only new thing thing is another short story, it seems. "24 Hour Happy People".

so confirmation that some of that stuff in the last trailer was made specifically for it
Cheers, added that to the OP! And it may not be "exciting", but it's still pretty interesting. I was actually wondering if they just reused game animations for those.

Actually, we still don't know what ZR/ZL will do during battle. When not in battle mode, ZL is targeting and ZR is jump, but during battle L is the targeting bottom.
Yea, I saw StreetsAhead's post for controls during battles.
Did not know about it being used for other things outside of battles. Thanks for that info.

Are there any spoilers for Xenoblade 1? I think the first short story might have had some right?
Nope. The new one is basically a side story from Lyn's perspective after they have established their stay in Planet Mira. Looks to be somewhere before the MC being discovered if we're talking about the time line.
As for the first one, there's really no spoilers from Xenoblade 1 aside from the apparent existence of the legend of a Heropon and his sidekicks (which obviously refers to Riki) from Tatsu's perspective. This is a little before the crash of the NLA and Moby Dick.

So how many more hours before the new video hits?
Well post it for us
Well, if people don't mind, here's the link of the translated web site courtesy of awesome Gessenkou from GameFAQs. Links for the short stories are somewhere below the site. Might want to bookmark it in case of side story continuations.

Will be watching the video at work tomorrow morning. A good idea is to forward the eventual translated version to others, even those who have no idea about the game.
Just saw this. It actually explains a lot on why they made the city the way they did, with the shops and what have you. Trying to make it feel more like home on their long space journey. It's like they saw the debates we were having about it and wanted to respond lol
Lol, I remember that thread.
I feel it also explains why Tatsu looks so tasty to humans. Although aliens seem to find him appetizing as well.
[Kojima] "combat Guide" Gattsuri introduce been Seoul voice in the video, continue from Xenoblade, will be bustling battle unfolds.
Avatar 20 people + fixed sub character, hard time to think about the characteristic lines, respectively, and further, it was very hard because it was a tremendous amount also voice recording. ... Yes, I'm also different lines of Seoul voice me by the personality of the avatar.
Lazy Google translate job

we actually usually have proper translations, but have to be a little patient.
Anyway, even that gibberish sounds kinda interesting.
