Yea, I've pretty much consigned that the structured, complete, and self-contained story of XC1 was fluke for Xeno-series. X's story was the weakest part of the game and completely back-loaded (plus cliff-hanger 'twist') and 2 and 3 just can't leave things alone and are compelled to create some Kingdom Hearts tiered story-telling involving constant use and re-use of characters (and copies of characters) that had complete arcs.
I generally enjoyed the plot beats of XC2 (not the inspanidual character interaction and dialogue) up until klaus is actually still alive but half of his body is being consumed by a black hole and the klaus you fight in XC1 is a DARK version that wasn't ever the REAL klaus.
