Chat

Chats are a game mechanic in Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country where the party will react to recent events, sometimes giving pointers on how to proceed forward in the story.

Mechanics
Chats are unlocked during story progress, after Jin and Lora meet Mikhail. They can be viewed while making camp at campsites, by selecting the chat icon, symbolized by a speech bubble. A yellow "!" shows whether there are any new chats available. Otherwise, selecting the chat option while no new chats are available will play back the last viewed chat.
