Yeah? I've beaten Dark Souls I and II and I don't remember a single explanation of how the humanity system worked (which is central to the game). They are very obscure games explaining their mechanics, you have to work it out as you play. |
Theres like 100 messages on the tutorial zones explaining basicaly everything.

I wont say anything about Xenoblade X specifically cause I havent played the game yet, but I agree professional reviewers in both videogames and movie have been lacking on recent years, reviews ar emost opinions rather than objective analysis nowadays. On the other hand when you have quite a bit of reviewers saying the game doesnt explain squat theres probably a problem there, theres realy no harm in spending some 10 minutes explaining how systems work on a complex game, it doesnt even need ot be forced, have a tutorial players can acess if they want to.
