I have, 307 images (if you get it off the internet), but definitely an interesting read. I've also played all the games so Soriku isn't nessecarily correct when he wrote "literally nobody".

If you know of any other game series, especially a sci-fi one, that comes close to Xenosaga worldbuilding (including elaboration on characters) like that's present in the Perfect Guide...let me know.

How many of you have played the entire Xenosaga series and read the Perfect Guide? Because the answer is literally nobody. No other developer is going to come close to replicating the depth found in the Xenosaga series if Takahashi is not involved. Not Mistwalker, not the Tales team, not tri-Ace or Konami - nobody. The other developers would be better off making their own sci-fi RPGs. Not that their worldbuilding would ever come close to Xenosaga's.

I haven't read the perfect guide, but I have played all the xeno games and while Takahashi is incredible at what he does I can say with confidence that devs like mistwalker and the Tales team can world build on his level if they so tried to.

I love the Tales team, I normally do like Tales worlds and characters, but...try to find a translation of the Perfect Guide and read it. The depth doesn't come close lol.

Does the story really flesh out that much past Episode 1? Story was probably my least favorite part of the game. :-/

Yes...I think the third game is the best by far though. But you need to read the Perfect Guide for the full picture.

Ill check for a translation then.
