Well IGN kind of stated the same thing with their original review for the game. But yeah, a majority of the big Xeno fans seem to be either Nintendo fans or hardcore JRPG enthusiasts. 

I've tried getting into JRPGS and had a hard time doing so, even though I have a decent amount of them on my shelfs. They seem to be really long and have terrible beginnings. The only one I really liked was FF7 but I never finished it because of the stupid Keyboard controls   I'm not including games like Fire Emblem or Etrian though, those are great.

I'll still probably get XC2 though, I wonder if it will be the first JRPG I ever get through

Yeah, it's one of my favourite videogame genres, but I really understand that some people might find hard to get into them. I agree that they usually tend to start slow, but they're normally pretty long games so I don't find the pace tiresome at all. That's a generalization though, there're a lot of JRPGs which I found tedious and bland. I wouldn't say that Xenoblade games are the most accessible for people who normally dislike this genre, but they're pretty different from the standard JRPG. Have you tried the first Xeno game? I guess that this one will be similar to the first one in the franchise.

XenoGears? Nah, I don't have a PS One unfortunately
