Tachikoma already has, her indepth look at XCX was, vastly, vastly more compelling, not to mention her twitch streams.


With all due respect to Tachikoma she is just one gamer/reviewer/streamer. Google Translate (lol) shows Japanese gamers stating various complaints. Most of those user reviews rate "Level of satisfaction" and "Comfort (dafaq)" at 2pts (guess out of 5) for example, not exactly glowing. Kotaku may be way of the mark but lets not throw everything out the window.

Tachikoma's actually an SCEJ developer/Gamer/Streamer.  And this thread isn't about 'every other review out there', it's about Kotaku.  Who really should be largely ignored anyway.  I find that particularly telling, when a developer for the competition is openly stating this game is the best game of the gen so far.  I find that very telling indeed.

You are trying so hard, is hilarious.

So you think The Witcher 3 deserves a 72 right? And you agree that Xenoblade Chronciles is waaaay above Witcher 3 (72 VS 90). Of course.

A direct attack that's totally off topic but I'll bite..... The Witcher 3 is still rated higher (72 vs 60), even by Japanese gamers. Dont bring that game up again.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

People are very quick to disregard to opinion of someone who didn't find the game as amazing as they think they will XD I'm getting the game regardless, but the reactions from this review reminds me of the response Dark Souls fans get if someone says they don't like it. Let the guy have an opinion. All reviews are purely opinion, it's good to get thoughts from the negative side too.

Stolen from GAF. Instead of accusing Kotaku of click baiting please answer the questions in the OP. Thanks:

For a comparison of user reviews of Xenoblade and Xenoblade X

Xenoblade: http://wiimk2.net/title.php?title=757
Xenoblade X: http://wiimk2.net/wiiu/title.php?title=124

X has way less reviews though. General impressions I've seen from Japanese players are not necessarily positive.

What is hilarious is that you criticise him for just posting relevant information.

In any case The Witcher 3 has a much higher score than XCX (72 vs 60) so maybe XCX isn't nearly as good as the original, which btw is my favourite JRPG.



This thread just cracks me up.

Which doesn't change the fact that she is still one individual, do you think every SCEJ Developer shares her opinion? Instead of attacking Kotaku or downplaying the author who isnt a dev, go after the authors points, do they hold any water? No one (so far) has gone after any of his points and is focussing on Kotaku the brand.

For a game that you think is a 9.5/10... this web gives it only a 72, wich is 23 points less than you think the game deserves, but you doesn t seem to care about it when you are using the same web as a proof of something against Xenoblade. I can use this web against TW3 too, but I would be called a blind hater, I´m sure about it.

Or maybe... you know... this Rpg is too western focused for them, and they like the first one more because is more japanese focused.

Nah sure the game is crap.

Can you actually address my questions, the authors criticisms or why Japanese gamers are currently rating it lower than its predecessor instead of making ad hoc assumptions and attacks.

Haven't seen every SCEJ developer analyze and stream XCX to the level that Tachi has, so I've no idea.  I'll still take what I've seen from her, over Kotaku any day of the week.  And until Kotaku the brand shows some worth, I've no need to attack his points.  I feel even reading their garbage, is in some minor way approving of what they do.

But, I've said my piece, so I'm gonna withdraw since it's not what you're looking for.



kotaku....

Maybe the game is not the best thing ever, I'm super hyped and I know that, but 70 hours of boredom?.... kotaku....
