So Xenoblade X has an 84 on metacritix because there is too much to do and the world is too big?

Wait wait.The reviewers that said the story was bad didnt say it wasnt understandable, they just thought it was simple.And it dosnt work that way.A game is not only made of the "obligatory" missions.If the side missions dont have content it wont make sense for having them in the first place.And if you could just rush through the story without doing anything extra or exploring the world, the game would just be easy, and then reviewers would complain about it.If you play The Witcher 3 in the normal difficulty most likely you wont be able to just rush the story, you would need to "grind" a bit, doing side quests, yet noone complained about it.The problem is if this "grinding" is boring or not.Thats the issue that reviewers had with the game.I still need to play the game to judge for myself, but i hardly see myself getting bored with the multitude of content that there is in the game.But thats my opinion

So they think the story is simple, and your problem with that is that they didn't know the whole Lore because they didn't play the whole side quest?

You may say what you want and disagree with them. But it seems like their opinion is that the story and leveling isn't well designed.

No, Im saying that by what they imply, that the carachters dont have depth and that the story in general seems simple,but that would be somewhat fixed if they did most of the affinity missions.But I agree thats a reasonable point to critic.

Its just that reading many of the "bad" reviews, most of them seem to not care to give the necessary effort to truly understand the game or understand its mechanics, or the reviewers were ones that simply dont like JRPGs to begin with.Wished they took more time with the games to try and do all they could before releasing the review, but alas.
