Gonna join the Chorus and say Xenoblade 2. All of the negatives of this game are either negligible or easily fixed. Bad map system? There's an update Friday. Characters talk too much during combat? Change that in options settings. Bad voice acting? Get the Japanese pack. Combat too slow? Eat items that recharge your arts faster (just wait until you are thirty hours in, and combat gets to be insane). Confusingly complicated game? That's what gamefaqs is for.

Xenoblade 2, wait for Skyrim's price to drop half a year from now. Xenoblade 2 will be $50 (at least) next year, Skyrim won't be.

Xenoblade 2

Buy Skyrim when its price drop (which will probably happen in a few months).

Depends are you a fan of glitch filled western RPG that is one of the greatest games so far ever or a fan of overly complicated JRPG systems with a lot potential and could use a little smoothing out.

Thread needs a poll.

Xenoblade 2. Obviously.

Xenoblade if not just because skyrims price is likely to fall before summer and xenoblades won't for a long time if ever

why not both.gif

i’m pretty sure both games will/can appeal to you though

Absolutely, im just saying i will never buy a game simply because its 3rd party.
