You did find out a ton about almost every character in the world through side quests. Heck, even the random people walking around the town that seemed to be just background characters end up being a part of some sidequest or another. So while you may not know them as much as the playable characters, you still find out that they are part of the church or the water facility, or a café, ect. If you do everything, you learn about seemingly EVERYONE. It's pretty crazy. I wasn't the biggest fan of X. I see the huge potential, but there was something amiss. I will say that it was the BEST MMO I have ever played. I so hate how like every MMO in the world seems to have its story revolve around you being the person who goes and saves the world, the main character, ect. It just doesn't make sense that the thousands of people all running around this MMO have all done the story. Meanwhile in X, you are not the MC. Elma is. You are just another random soldier that helps the cause and doing things here and there to improve new LA and held humanity. Like if your character dies, it doesn't matter, the world will continue, yet at the same time you helped it get to where it was. and no I never played the online stuff in the game. All offline. Just it felt like a very much mmo game. I am also a huge fan of town builder type games, so that helps. The whole game essentially was an improve new LA, town builder. I'd probably get a remaster on Switch, solely due to the portability of the game. The game is super grindy type that being able to lounge on couch and play in handhled while watching tv/movie would be immensely beneficial to the game. I suppose I could have done that with WIi U, and I did at times. You know, have the game on the Wii U gamepad while on different input on the tv, but it just never felt the same as the Switch does. |
That is why it is dumb. Why the hell we have to know about the background characters and character developments thank to the side quests instead the main story? Not everyone can enjoy playing all the side quests to do research about the characters in the game you know.
