No gripes here.

I don't want any of the characters from the original back, so I'm happy that they ditched them. The characters and story were relatively forgettable, and I'm hoping they knock it out of the park with this one. No reason to saddle the game with old, mediocre characters.

I guess it was a hit and miss. I loved the characters of Shulk, Fiora, Melia and Riki, Dunban was okay, but I didn't like Reyn or Sharla. 

In a way. The forced love-triangle was cringing and none of the characters were really that memorable, at least for me. The great RPGs have rememberable and unique characters, and Xenoblade didn't quite accomplish that for me.

It's a good thing that the world and gameplay completely made up for that though.
