For me personally a dissapointment excepcting some sort of Xenogears
I love great stories.
Xenogears. Really deserves a remake next, with a complete 2nd half.

Lobsided expectations tend to do that to you. I'm hoping Elden Ring is as good as Dark Souls 3 here, if better great. If not, I'll probably enjoy it a lot still (I still love DS2 also).For me personally a dissapointment excepcting some sort of Xenogears

Final Fantasy Tactics Remastered LEAK Legit? Xenogears Remake Possible?
Speak of the devil.....

Nintendo owns the Xenoblade series, so not directly.

Xenoblade deserves to be on PlayStation.

Man I have such a love/hate relationship with Xenoblade, including XCX
Good:
- interesting plot
- huge, beautiful environments to explore
- god tier music (except the two New LA songs that you'll be listening to for like 30% of the game)
- fun combat system
- skells feel really badass and powerful once you get the good ones
Bad:
- ends on a cliffhanger that may never be resolved
- shit open-world game design where every single quest is some variation of "go pick up a bunch of shiny blue dots" "oh thanks for that, now go pick up some other shiny blue dots", etc
- generally just lots of generic filler quests padding everything
- some really stupid writing, particularly with
- ugly, derpy looking faces
- Elma and Lin MANDATORY for every story mission
Overall probably my favorite in the series despite its flaws.

stupid Elma taking forever to figure out that Lao is a traitor. Also some really suspicious stuff going on with 'L' that nobody ever questions or even notices- cut content maybe?

This is the real crime here. It not being on it.

Only if Takahashi works on it.
Square would fuck it up of course.

I think it might have the best world design in any game I've ever played. The size, the bizarre alien esthetics, the verticality and the way the entire scale changes when you get your mech and realize how multilayered the map is, it really demonstrates Monolith Soft's artistic and level design talent. The game itself though... I thought it was a bit of a clusterfuck. Tons of systems and subsystems and mechanics and menus and icons with Monolith's signature terrible tutorials and fuckawful UI that gives a new meaning to the word cluttered, a rather uninteresting main quest, bad pacing (as stated the Skells arrive way too late) and a combat system that I found a good deal worse than the ones in Xenoblade and Xenoblade 2 kinda soured me on the experience. Still worth playing for the world alone.

I know there were "free dlc" on the WiiU online store so you could load content onto a memory card and have lots of stuff load faster than it could off of the optical drive, I'd keep an eye out for extra settings for this game that might also help.
