Really? I was under the impression that the two games were totally unrelated plot-wise. I've (somehow) managed to avoid Xenoblade 1 spoilers up to this point, so it'd be a real shame if I ended up ruining it for myself after all this time, haha. |
Yes and no it's a bit like the Zelda timeline where the games themselves have stand alone stories and events that you don't need to play the other games to understand but the is a connection that links all games together that makes you understands things in a much deeper sense. Instead of a timeline like in Zelda the is an overarching narrative that is playing out and gives a huge central back story as well as sets things up going forward and as you play more games in the series you grasp more and more of the narrative that the series' universe will be dictated by for example one character in one of the 3 Xenoblade game fits in with two others in a certain way in another (won't spoil it or how that's for you to figure out).
