The game is simply amazing.The music so far is great, the story is entertaining, and the world is simply breathtaking.When the game gets closer to stuff, or when it is a low profile cutscene, the game looks good.But when you are travelling its world, seeing its vistas with the animals on it, it is simply incredible.As always there are very few games that makes the world as awesome as Monolith.
The gameplay is also incredible.If you played any XC game you know what to expect here, but I personally think its more refined.Yes its complicated, but once you get the hang of that(and Im still early in the game, didnt see the full extent of the combat system yet) its simply excellent.
The game does have its technical problems though.For docked mode, there are some framerate hickups, but nothing too big that gets in the way of the game, and supposedelly resolution is terrible undocked(never played that way, so I dont know)
And yeah, this game is more "anime" than other Xenoblade games, and I see where the complaints come from.But even then, its not nearly as bad as some reviewers makes it to be.I mean, personally I like it very much, but I get if someone dosent like.But reviewers going as far as the gamespot review(and other Im sure) and listing as that being basically their only complain and taking away 3 points because of that?BS I say.
Anyways, so far, I feel the game should have scored at least a 90, but oh well.
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
