Has Monolith surpassed Retro Studio as new Nintendo elite studio?

What games on PS4 or Xbox are similar to the Xenoblades games? I can't think of one. Monolith Software isn"t making the kind of games that release on these other consoles, they are making very special games in their own leagues that can't be compared to the generic western RPGs.

Monolith made Nintendo a great RPG maker on home console, they perfectly complement Nintendo's offer. Xenoblade went from being an under the radar game announced quickly , not even sure to released in the West, to Xenoblade X, a game launched like the major title it is, with bundles and limited editions.

As for the studios, Monolith seems to me like a place where the group of people from SquareSoft and Namco who left are still fully together. It's easier when everyone stays at the studio  and you don't have to replace people often.

 

 

Which is more like Xenoblade X :   Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Dragon Quest, Tales, Final Fantasy or any game made by Nintendo?  The closet game currently in production, I would say, would be Final Fantasy XV.  Monolith's games are like nothing else offered by Nintendo.

 

I played Dragon Age when it was given for free by EA, and I found it terrible... Absolutely nothing like Xenoblade.  Xenoblade is a RPG, a genre where Nintendo was lacking, and a JRPG, but there are currently no games like it on the market. Western RPG's are totally different and the other JRPGs have taken the bad road.

Predictably, you dodged the question.
