Yeah, Im not big into JRPGs at all, but this game is awesome. Would also recommend Ni No Kuni if you haven't played it


Xenoblade chronicles is awesome, definitely among the best jrpgs out there... I would not say the same thing about ni no kuni... Pretty much the opposite...


Well I really enjoyed both...

Xenoblade is a great game!

Hope you enjoy it



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Xenoblade has a lot of great stuff going for it, but I will never understand why people say the plot is great...
I'm assuming the plot isn't what you disliked about FFX?

The plot wasn't bad, but I felt like FFX was too linear when compared to other titles. I like RPGs where you have lots of places to go and explore.

The plot is pretty much gnostic philosophy packaged into a fantasy/speculative fiction storyline. There are a lot of literary devices. For anyone else it is a good anime-like speculative fiction story. It isn't a Xenogears but it is still deep and interesting when considered for its own qualities, and has better pacing than Xenogears.

Wait what? Your name isn't a Xenoblade reference?



Well, according to people here, I still don't know much about the plot.

I've changed my sentence in the OP.

Nope it's a nickname I have from baseball. I've had people posting on my wall a lot saying I mispelled ReynTime and I never understood it until I realized that name came from XC haha
