It contains the Torna DLC on a cart and t also contains a code to download the season pass content for Xenoblade 2? Does this mean if you get the season pass you get the Torna DLC digital as well?


yes the golden country is part of the season pass

Hold it!!!

I *think* the digital download code that you get with the physical version only entitles you to download everything in the season pass excluding Torna itself; you don't get the expansion digitally as well as on the cart.

Got a retail copy of Torn from Argos for £28.99, and I've only played a couple of hours so far and I'm really enjoying the combat more here than I did in the main game.

For some reason my copy has been delayed by Amazon, just as well I wasn't in a rush to get it :roll:

Gives me chance to try and make some progress in my other games I've got on the go anyway.

Decided to bite the bullet and restart this, so have finished Chapter 1 and got Pyra.

I suppose at least this time I'll have the benefit of all the DLC right from the start.

Amalthus in Chapter 9 :x

One boss down, and another one turns up right after :x At least you haven't got to beat them consecutively. I'd have given up long ago if you had.

Don't stuffing believe it.

Spent half an hour fighting Elma, finally managed to take her down in style with a Full Burst Chain Attack that hit for 2.8million damage.

Then got launched and taken out by a Ghost Elma.

They've added Mythra's black leggings Smash design to XC2. Make's me wish they had the Smash designers toning them down from the start, looks a lot less ridiculous.

The black leggings look strawberry floating awful.
It's like someone put Mythra's design into MS Paint and just used the Fill tool.

Reading into it, it seems Mythra's original character designer did the redesign himself, surprisingly.

Just made it to the Second Titan's city.

Sometimes the framerate has momentary shudders in this game, but strawberry float me, it's amazing how they pulled all this off.

I've only played it in handheld mode and outside of super dense areas in Gormott and Mor Ardain the framerate held up quite well. It was only really in the previously mentioned places that the dynamic resolution made things a bit blurry.

The DLC was buttery smooth except for one area near the end and I thought it looked even better to boot.

Think I've put in 250+ hours now. :lol: :wub:

I can totally understand that, the world is huge and you could quite easily get lost in it. I'm about 25 hours in now. Just met Mythra, and now this kinda reminds me of Grandia 2 (what with one of the main characters having an alter ego).

Is the Expansion pass any good?
