The Art System and Xenobalde's Mainstream Appeal in the West

I do feel better marketing could have helped sell this game. I don't really think it got any...? Just some exposure would have been nice. I do feel making the gameplay more hack-and-slash would be more appealing overall, but the system they have now is fun as well.

If there is one thing I think they should change, it's the art style. Even I have to admit it's not very visually appeal, though not all characters look bad... If they change this with more marketing, I think it could sell better. If they make another Xenoblade-like game, maybe they can apply these changes and do a better job overall.

It got some commercials, but you had to be on the lookout for it. They usually advertise their M rated games on Adult Swim so I checked and it was on there. Otherwise I never saw it anywhere else, which was a shame. Its a great game. They really should have put it everywhere. Even Bayonetta 2 had playboy playmates doing cosplay. This had... just that commercial as far as I know.

Well, that's good they advertised it some at least, but why on something like adult swim..? The game doesn't really even have any mature content on it... It could have used some during the day... D: And the game is not even an M rated game.
