Now Nintendo needs to remake Pandora's Tower, another game which is way underplayed and undervalued.

Really? I was under the impression that the two games were totally unrelated plot-wise. I've (somehow) managed to avoid Xenoblade 1 spoilers up to this point, so it'd be a real shame if I ended up ruining it for myself after all this time, haha.

That's not Nintendo's game. Besides The Last Story deserves it most. PT was ok but I will always find it funny the official artwork for the main character is stolen Noctis art.

Yes and no it's a bit like the Zelda timeline where the games themselves have stand alone stories and events that you don't need to play the other games to understand but the is a connection that links all games together that makes you understands things in a much deeper sense. Instead of a timeline like in Zelda the is an overarching narrative that is playing out and gives a huge central back story as well as sets things up going forward and as you play more games in the series you grasp more and more of the narrative that the series' universe will be dictated by for example one character in one of the 3 Xenoblade game fits in with two others in a certain way in another (won't spoil it or how that's for you to figure out).

They are connected but you would not know it until a specific moment and not talking about the optional DLC. Saying more than I should. X is unrelated to the rest of the games tho. So Xenoblade,Xenoblade 2 then Torna in that order.

Don't deprive yourself of a great game because of a tiny connection that is insignificant and can be read up on in a couple of minutes if you play the games out of order. I've put hundreds of hours into both XC1 and XC2, and the order you play them in really doesn't matter unless you have a severe case of OCD.

But it's correct that the XC2 expansion should be played after XC2, because the expansion sheds more light on specific XC2 characters. But it's also logical to begin with to play an expansion after a main game.

Hmm, would you say the original Xenosaga games are still worth playing in this day and age? I mean, in a hypothetical scenario where free time is a non-issue.

Alright then, I'll heed your warning. I guess I'll play Octopath Traveller in the meantime...or Final Fantasy 7 Remake. There are just too many games to catch up on these days.

It may seem extreme but I wonder and trying to be nonspoilery and vague here. If one big reason Xenoblade Remake is happening is to retcon one scene and model. Probably small adjustments in writing as well.
