I don’t see them doing handheld Xbox version.

same .

That’s not going to happen with just one die shrink. Maybe 2 or 3 more and they might be able to get the chip to draw a lot less power to make a handheld feasible.

Steam is doing it with the current 7nm node process.

Not really about a die shrink too as the cooling requirements are still valid even then.

I wonder whether they can emulate it with the ARM architecture with AMD’s support. And if they do it, it will accelerate the x86 native to emulated architecture on desktop/laptops also faster.

But the Series S is a significantly more powerful machine than the Steam Deck. It can draw around 80 Watts, so it is simply unfeasible for Xbox to make a Series S portable on a 7nm process and probably the next one as well.

Unless you are advocating that Xbox should gut the chip, which would add yet another performance profile for developers to target?

I am saying move to a different implementation of that architecture that has a lower draw power as a default. x86 is not made for a lower power draw anyway.

And this is a pure think-aloud - how do you get from here to an ARM big.little+RDNA2 version of the current SoC.

I have a question for those that played plenty of Tales of Vesperia…

So here’s the thing I don’t get. Yuri has had Azure Edge since the beginning of the game, I haven’t been using it ever since I got arcane skills, but I’d like to start using it again. The thing is, when I use it , it performs azure blast, which to me doesn’t seem nearly as good. Nor can I spam it as nicely, haha.

How do I “downgrade” this back to normal azure edge?

Yuri is using Caladbolg as weapon.

Do you have crucible equipped ?

Where can I see this? The weapon doesn’t have that skill, the sub, head, body and acc neither. I’m missing something here, haha.

Check your passives or whatever they are called. Maybe you activate it to learn the skill.

I feel dumb, Jesus.

It was right there in the view/change skill settings. This is also a menu I haven’t been visiting at all, wow and I’m at the last dungeon.

Another thing…

For some reason the game seems to decide randomly what my party during battles is. When I go to the menu with Y the order of characters is Yuri, Estelle, Flynn and Judith. But just now I enter a battle and I have Karol and Rita walking around. Is this also a setting somewhere?

Did you get attack from behind ?

If it happens, I wonder if it is coming to Xbox or not too, considering the relationship between Apple and Microsoft. Considering that Sony is one of the biggest music publishers, I am surprised that they don’t have their own service.

That could have been it. Either way , thanks! I was making shit way more difficult than needed to be, lol. Lesson learned for Tales of Arise when I buy it in the near future.

Damn Staffy, your posts are making me want to play a Tales game. Hope Arise goes on sale soon!

After Code Vein and Scarlet Nexus I think ToA will sooner or later be on Game Pass as well.

The Series S outselling the PS5 digital in Japan is pretty much becoming the norm. It seems to be happening quite consistently.

Wow, for real? If so that’s pretty wild. I guess the size factor is a bigger consideration than I expected, among other things.
