when nintendo acquired monolith i thought they were interested in creating something very storyheavy like xenogears and xenosaga were. but with xenoblade it was pretty clear it's going the open world and simplified story direction.

I expect Xenoblade Chronicles X to have a more complex story than Xenoblade (centered around Elma as the main protagonist.) I don't expect Xenogears level of detail or convolusion, but it should definitely be a multidimensional story, with both a complex enough meta-plot as well as interesting sub-plots and characters. I wouldn't exactly call Xenoblade's story simple in the context of all RPG's, either. We'll have to wait and see. 

it's always a question of what you're comparing it to:

compared to the average story we've seen in rpgs so far... yes, you're right.

compared to what xenogears and xenosaga trilogy were... no.
