How is Xenoblade better? I heard it was a single player MMO essentially.


Well, the battle system borrows from MMOs in terms of selecting attacks from a palette and cooldowns (but still very fast-paced and hands-on/active), and it has loads of quests (~480 quests. A lot are fetch quests though.). The world is also MASSIVE. The game still has a good story, good characters, and good music like any great RPG too though. It's a JRPG that borrows from MMOs, that's all. Its not like Monster Hunter.

I suggest getting Xenoblade too since the general consensus is that Xenoblade is better. It'll also last you longer (50-60+ hour main story, 100+ if you add in a lot of sidequests. I have 157 hours clocked and I'm missing some Achievements though I did everything else.)

I prefer shorter games. Xenoblade would have been great if I was 16 again. But now I have a backlog so huge, I only buy games that are short so I can actually finish them.
