Great! How do you find it in general? And how much does it take? I've played around 45 hours and I'm on chapter 5. I did a pretty good quantity of side quests though, and take my time building the affinity chart of my rare blades. 

The game was great. I like the story and most of the characters. My favorite being Nia. Took me 70 hours. I did very few side quests. They weren't very fun and the awards and XP just wasn't worth it for me. Just did the mercenary stuff instead. Which is a great way to build the affinity chart for the blades.

Is it just me or is there one area in the game that has Metroid music?

Great, I really like Nia as a character in these last 4 chapters. This Xenoblade is more focused on characters imho, and that's why I'm enjoying the writing and plot more in this game than the previous 2. As much as I liked the previous games, I always found the characters pretty bland. Even in the first one, the characters just haven't been really appealing to me. 

Mercenaries missions are great to build the blades' affinity chart, get the field skills (which is probably the only mechanic I'm not pretty fond of in this game, sadly), and some extra EXP and gold. 

I didn't notice Metroid music in this game, at least in the 4 chapters I've played.

I'm here to say two things.

1. I'm in love with this game.
2. Screw field abilities.

Yeah, field abilites are the only gameplay mechanic I don't enjoy a lot. The rest of it is pretty great though. But the game is totally awesome in general. By the way, did you solve the side quest problem you had? I read about it in this thread or another one, but didn't bother to answer because I didn't have a clue about it and it'd feel pretty pointless xD.
