Tough call...right now im leaning towards Xenoblade.



Around the Network

Zelda!
no other words to say



Zelda, because I love it since my childhood :)



Zelda - Breath of the Wild for Nintendo Switch.... Incredable!!!

Xenoblade Chronicles X for me.



 

Despite the fact that the first Xenoblade is my favorite game in the last 5 years in this case i have to go with Zelda over XCX. There is just something with that Zelda that makes me so excited



Around the Network

Xenoblade Chronicles X. They're bringing back Gears.

Also it looks like Xenogears.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

The poll isn't surprising. Xenoblade Chronicles was an excellent game and X has a lot going for it, but Zelda does have the longer and more consistent pedigree. Still, seeing Xenoblade get this much positivity only two games into the franchise is very encouraging.



Xenoblade. I'm an avid Zelda fan, but Nintendo haven't shown a lot of it to make me hyped. When they release a trailer, or a long gameplay, I will be hyped as f***.

Aren't all Zelda games open world games

Nope, many have hubs and linear non-seamless paths (think Dark Souls, if you've played it.) Windwaker is the only 3D Zelda which can really be called an open-world, and Twilight Princess had its expansive segments, but its paths were still pretty linear. LoZ, A Link Between Worlds, and A Link To the Past let you complete dungeons in any order, and they had multiple ways to get where you wanted to go. They'd probably be considered open-world if they were realized in a 3D game. So I guess this is the first non-linear, open world, 3d Zelda on land.

Yeah, it's impressive to see such a young franchise already trading blows with one of the most venerable in gaming.
