 XenoBlade's ending was a bit of a disappointment (but the events leading to it were excellent).

How so?

Yeah, i couldn't see how it was disappointing, except that the game gave no resolution whatever to ReynxSharla after basically beating you over the head with it from the time she joins the party. Or perhaps Michael-5 didn't want to see Fiora live, which was an out-of-left-field cop-out from the writers' part.

Well, having mechonis Fiora bothered me a bit, but not too much. What I didn't like was that the creating another universe concept, Shulk living, Fiora making people float randomly when Mechonis dies, and still being able to walk on Bionis despite it moving. How are cities still flat? How did they make this alternate universe, and why are there only 3 gods despite dozens of people on the satellite? I just felt that the end of the game was rushed, it was well planned, but for a game that's this long, there should have been more game at this point....I also hated how that High Entia woman was so much harder then the boss of the game. Still, an excellent game overall. I would give it a 9.5/10 if it weren't for all the grinding, walking, and rushed ending.

So far, I am liking The Last Story just a bit better because the story explained better as you go along, and there aren't any lucky situations which get you saved, like Fiora saving everyone.. However I still don't get the ending of the Last Story. Why did I bother killing the Sentinal of the Guraks half of the Outsider? What does killing the Sentinal prove, and what is Zangurak going to do with the Human Outsider which is so dangerous?
