DAMN! I wanted a remake. God, I don't swear but hell, I was really hoping for a remake.

Didn't see you swear.

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

If any game in the history of both gaming and literature combined deserves a remake, it's Xenogears.



The hell is this, even? At least they're doing something with the property, I suppose. Almost expected Chu-Chu to drop in at the end, like the rotten cherry on a disappointment-flavored shake.



Figures all Square can make any more is games with shooting and explosions.

Do they even have writers anymore or just Call of Duty playing "investors" calling the shots over there?

They needed to work with Nintendo/Monolith on a Xenogears remake with the second disc being playeable and fleshes out. Although I also really want a Xenoblade Chronicles X sequel that fixes all of the loose-ends plotwise. Hm, which do I want more?



Monolith Soft made it. Anything from SE concerning Xenogears will be a imitation.

What was the issue with the second disc of Xenogears again? I forgot. I remember there being some narrative scenes in text form instead of actual in game events. Was that it?

Well, what happened was budget and time constraints.  The second disc suffered from cut content and compression of pivotal boss battles and plot scenes.  If this sounds familiar it's because it's the prelude to what happened when Monolith worked with Bandai Namco on Xenosaga just on a smaller scale.

I hope they add characters from Xenosaga as well.

Xenosaga is owned by Namco-Bandai not square. 

 

As for the second disc of xenogears, it was just a bunch of monologues with a boss battle here and there until the last dungeon. I actually want to play all of the events in between and see all of the plot points which were discarded. It would make the amazing story more impactful.



How is Squareenix able to suddenly put out so many games for the PS4?
They really putting in work.
