In a year containing Fallout 4, the Witcher 3, Bloodborne, and Metal Gear Solid V, you can't really expect Xenoblade X to really compete for game of the year.

It's an excellent game, but there are also other masterpieces out there. 

The game is already highly rated and recieved way more attention for an rpg (a wii u exclusive nonetheless) despite it's many shortcomings. So no, it's not underrated.

 

The funny thing is, those games you listed all made me yawn. The Witcher 3 was somewhere in the middle, Bloodborne was seriously just a grindfest all over again with FROM Software's same ol' formula, MGS5 wasn't that great, and Fallout 4 is the lawlz, let's just be real here, as far as good games go, 2015 was a fucking joke overall.

Whether you like those games or not has no bearing on what the general consensus agrees on. Personally I'm not the biggest fan when it comes to rpgs, but seeing as how the general consensus agrees that those 4 games should be highly rated, I set aside my personal bias, see why they say so, and in this case agree with them. And yeah, I did prefer 2014 games, but that makes no difference on choosing the best of 2015



 

I only responded because you used the words "master pieces," come on now lol, let's just be real.

 

It was an exaggeration, clearly they have their faults. Doesn't detract from their appeal to the general consumer though
