So, after getting hyped by the X tailer and after hearing constant praise for the game on here, I finally popped in my copy of Xenoblade that I picked up a while back. I was saving it for a time that I could get imersed in an rpg, but I couldn't wait any longer. I was worried I wouldn't enjoy it because I'm sick of SD visuals...

...But WOW, what a game. I don't know if it's the WiiU slightly upscaling, but even the graphics are incredible (for Wii). The music is awesome, the story interesting so far, the wolrd really cool. I can see where all this praise comes from. It's like a modernized classic JRPG. It's the closest thing to FFX I've played since FFX. Seeing the extremely high quality of this game I truly can't wait for X. As a fan of adventure games and RPG's, I think X may be the game of the coming generation for me. Xenoblade is everything I hoped FFXIII would be, minus the hi-def. It's both classic and fresh and unique.

The graphics are muddly looking and kind of icky, but the art direction itself is fantastic.  Great characters, story, and gameplay.  Great game, and with the proper budget, it could go from great to amazing.

Yes. Yes it is.

FINALLY MORE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND.

Were you living under a rock mi friend? hahaha just kidding... yes, indeed is amazing as it is. That is why it has universal acclaim, such a huge game, IT REALLY OPENS YOUR MIND. A lot of people just avoided because it was on the Wii, and its a shame that not everyone could experience what I and other peoples did.

the open world graphics is amazing, but the character design are creepy. lol

Xenoblade is a very good game. It's not as good as Xenosaga for me, but def a fantastic one.

Happy to hear you are enjoying it. Trust me, the best is still to come cause that game keeps getting better and better as you move forward :D

Xenoblade is by far my favorite RPG and 1 of my favorite game ever. The story and character were amazing, I hope that X has a story that is as good. Sure X's trailer was awsome and graphics are super pretty, but the story is what made Xenoblade for me and If X lack the charm that Xenoblade did, I doubt I'll be able to enjoy it nearly as much.

My least favorite part is the ending...
I didn't want it to end...
I loved exploring the Bionis for the first time...
I was shocked by how vast the world was every time I entered a new area...
The last time I got that excited about a game was probably exploring Tallon IV...

I first need to get the game before I can agree with you.
