Good scores so far. It seems like Monolith need to work harder if they want to recapture the magic of the first XC, but XCX was still a great game. Anything comparably good is worth my time.

I dont know.I think that some reviewers are taking away points for silly reasons(my opinion of course), like the gamespot review seems to suggest.As long as Xenoblade is Xenoblade, and people that are not fond of japanese quirks are reviewing it, XC games will never reach that high again.

Exactly. I still don't get why a lot of reviewers are taking away points for being too japanese, and Persona 5, which is the most japanese a game can get, still had a lot of praise going. It's an awesome game so I won't complain, but I always felt that the Xeno franchise in general was always pretty underrated. Well, almost any Monolith game. And I'm pretty sure that the fact that a game like FFXV has a 80+score too, is because it tones down "japanese things". I mean, that game wasn't good to begin with.
