Well I hope this puts to rest the unwarranted fears expressed by a few individuals that X wouldn't have a big story or much of a story focus. As a Takahashi game this was inevitable and pretending otherwise was just silly.

I honestly don't remember which members thought that so I'm not calling anyone out.

Were there seriously people who thought that? I thought it was a given that XCX will have a large focus on the story.


There was a thread a couple weeks back where people assumed that there would be no focus on story.

if the game got a 39-40 it be just the same, but opposite arguments lol


I don't often agree with you Tbone, but when you're right you're right :P

There certainly were. It was pretty annoying. The gist of it as I recall necessitated the assumption that most of the game had already been shown.

A whole thread? Oh man, that should be easy to find for anyone who wants to try out their new crow recipe.

That's just... ugh.

@Dengle. "Pretty annoying" is an understatement.

We've had a lot of threads worthy of that these past couple months.

Lol, maybe. I've always prefered an actual party of characters though (instead of 2 and monsters). Also, sugary sweet Serah and just plain dull Noel I wouldn't say is an upgrade by any means. That may just be me though.

Just having 2 actual characters was a negative for me as well. Though you could get some FF13 characters as monsters as well, but most of them were DLC.

Yeah, didn't bother purchasing anything for it. I didn't even buy the game, my brother is ever the optimist in the franchise so he did buying in to the whole "this is the one people wanted" thing that kept going around with every new XIII game.

That isn't as bad as I remember. I may be thinking of Gaf, or another thread.

Yeah, it was pretty tame.

I bet it's rated lower because of the story.


I doubt it. Apparently according to the director, the games story is described as " A deep Sci-fi story compared to Xenoblade Chronicles basic fantasy story"
