I always see this thread but I've never posted in it. So here I go!
Recently, I've been playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3D and Bravely Default on my 3DS. The games really couldn't be any more different. XC3D is a lot more action-based and focuses on exploration while BD is more compact with a turn-based system and has you traveling to small towns. I really like both games but I have to say that XC3D is more captivating to me so far. Really looking forward to finishing both of these before the main course (Xeno X) arrives!
