Current Events > Xenoblade Chronicles X is 5 years old

(+) Yeah! (+)

A actual good open world game. Beautiful af game, aesthetically, great music, and currently the only reason to own a WIi U

I want a fucking sequel

I just want a port or something on the Switch. I COULD buy the game again on my Wii U but meh, I'd rather them release it again.

THEN they would probably work on a sequel.

If they port it to the switch day 1 buy. It's was the only game that I really wanted to play on the WiiU besides Sm4sh

Are any of the xenoblade games on switch? Tbh that'd be the reason why I'd get a switch <__<

They made XB2 on Switch and it's exclusive and three years old now. They released XB1 Definitive earlier this year that had a new epilogue too.

Thought it was older tbh

I think something it did very well compared to the other Xenoblade games is how they separated fetch quests from actual worldbuilding sidequests. Xenoblade 1's main flaw in my eyes is that the vast majority of sidequests weren't very compelling, and even though there were some quests that were really neat (like the Desiree sidequest in Colony 9 and the one about the giants and spiders) they were difficult to parse from the ones that just force you to collect things or take out a unique enemy. X puts all the interesting sidequests on the map grid, and the collection quests rotate out on a quest board in the hub so you don't feel you have to do them unless you already have the items.

And still only on a failed console.

they need to bring it to the switch and put the slider back in

Is XB2 good? Will I be lost if I didn't play XB1?

How high is your animu tolerance? And no, you won't, it's not a direct sequel.

I love anime. Just been real busy and not had time for it lately

why did the one on switch have a half naked girl on the cover?

There's one major point that makes more sense if you've played XB1, but it's not necessary. And it might still work if you play XB1 second. But like someone said, they are both on Switch.

I hate that these games are only on Nintendo consoles

would love for Xenoblade 2 to be on steam

2 is awful. 1 is very good.

Masterpiece of a game. I would welcome a Switch version with some additional content (maybe exploring one of Mira's moons?) and major QoL fixes with open arms.

Both are great games and the best on the switch. You don't need to play XB1, but why the hell wouldn't you?

And nah, XBX can stay on the Wii U. MonolithSoft's WORST story by a huge fucking mile. When Xenosaga 2 crushes your story, you have issues.

2 is great

I want an enhanced port or a sequel to X on the Switch. Either way, it has to finish the damn story it set up.

Xenosaga ep 2, Dark Souls 2, Xenoblade 2

Three most disappointing sequels all time for me

---

Xenoblade 2 is a good game, but definitely doesn't live up to either of its predecessors.

Xenoblade 1 had a better story, world, and characters.
Xenoblade X has better world-building, exploration, and combat.

Xenoblade 2's areas just seemed smaller and more cramped in comparison, of course, it's because you're exploring several smaller Titans as opposed to either two very large ones, or a strange, uncharted planet.

---

too bad the battle system sucked ass because i agree with everything else you said. i want one of these xenoblade titles to be an action game because their combat is the one thing stopping me from really enjoying them.

---

I'd pick XBX back up if not for the absence of reward tickets due to online functionality deprivation. Farming mats is bleh without them.

Yep

It's my most wanted game for Switch atm. Only Wii U game left I haven't been able to play, and I fucking love the series. Xenobade 2 was a fine game but I never finished it and I didn't like the anime/gacha direction it went.

---

Is it intended that you never got loot in that game? You either buy it all or just find materials to craft certain things? Just seems weird.

---

You received loot and material drops, but you needed to be strong to get some of the rarer drops from powerful enemies. The Tickets made it manageable for everyone

If I answered that correctly

Some materials are just absurdly rare and it's way more efficient to just buy them. It's even faster to farm Reward Tickets to buy the materials than it is to repeatedly kill an enemy for the desired rare material.

It's still grindy as hell, though. The grindiness is why I don't like the game as much as I could've, it really negatively impacted my experience, on top of the other less-than-stellar aspects of the game.

Rare equipment drops is just pure luck. And of course the best stuff is from enemy drops...

Wouldn't mind a Switch port, would get it if it had substantial QoL improvements, extra content, and reduced the grind. Of course, considering how grindy they made XC2 and the extra content in XCDE... I have my doubts about the latter.

The boob slider when creating a character

if they just had enemies or chests drop the loot itself instead of demanding everything good be crafted in tiny bits and pieces, it'd help cut the grind a bit. i really liked the game in general, but RPGs where enemies don't drop loot is bizarre to me

---

Still waiting for a switch port or sequel after the bullshit cliffhanger ending.
