I'm really happy that XC2 managed to sell so well...
Xenoblade as a series has always deserved success...
But I must say that XC2's story felt a bit...unpolished to me...
I don't feel like there are any major plot twists that turn the story on its head...
And most of your party members aren't given much depth beyond being standard RPG party members...
They don't grow or discover themselves along the way, Nia being the big exception...
Meanwhile in the first game, Shulk, Reyn, and Dunban were motivated by the loss of Fiora, Sharla by the loss of her fiancé, Melia by the loss of her father, and Rikki by the accumulation of immense debt...
Each of these characters grew and either found a sense of purpose, a sense of closure, or in Melia's case, ended up losing even more...
I found this missing in XC2...
Either way, I'm really happy for Monolith...
Have a nice day...
