New project. Get the absolute fuck out of Mira. Seriously. Don't even resolve the plot. It wasn't good anyway.

Oh, and I did play XCX. It absolutely was empty.

 

What the hell do u want from a game? If they add more animals it would be unrealistic as fuck! Take a look outside, go for a hike in the woods, watch national geographic channel! Animals are not that heavily dinse if they were there would be a shit load of slaughter! There are way more than enough animals on the planet, the only thing they could do is add more animal against animal interactions. Maybe a few more flying animals but  that would make skell flying a pan in the ass.

Story was trash imo

The game really didn't need much of a story. Some of the game kind of felt like a open world monster Hunter. If x and mh could merge into a single game I would be in heaven!





I would like a sequal on the Wii U... but Nintendo fans will probably jump me for that one.

Its the fastest way to get a new game that is fleshed out because they already got the tech in place. They just need to focus on improving it.

But, if that is impossible, then i would like them to expand on Mira.



as long as a new project is also a xeno game.... fine either way :)

^ Honestly wouldnt mind that at all. Theres still more story & explanations needed/possible for Mira.



I am fine with either one. I would be cool with a sequel on XC and improving on the game, and with them working on something new. I am interested in seeing what more Monolith Soft can make. I find the things they make to be pretty amazing and jaw dropping, so I would love to see more work from these guys. Whatever they decide to do, I look forward to it whole heartedly.

They have gone on record that the next game will be in a different form then we got XCX as well as mentioning that a lot of what they did in the game was experimental to see how to adapt to HD development.

All that being said, I do want them to comeback to Mira, hundreds of hours into the game, I am nearing then end but can't get enough of the setting and just feel of exploring new vistas hidden away in it. If they do a sequel, they will no doubt have to have a new continent or two but I would like to see more on a ending then we got, for those that say the story is bad, while the main story missions aren't great the way you get to build up NLA's population and the various life forms on the planet through side missions to me was great.

It isn't EPIC on the scale normal RPGs usually take their stories but the story of survival on a new unfamiliar world was well handled. I doubt it can be replicated in a sequel but you never know, also I think more can be done with the multiplayer element. So while I would equally enjoy a single player focus JRPG like the original Xenoblade, I want to see them come back to this quasi multiplayer pool sometime in the future as well and a expanded planet Mira with its mysteries and various alien life forms are an ideal setting for that type of game.

That or a enhanced port of Phantasy Star Online 2 (or even a new C.A.R.D. revolution) being released on the Wii U or NX or Xbox One.

I don't mind a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles X. I would like to know what the mystery around Mira is, but it needs to be in the vein of the original Xenoblade. The story presentation of X is unacceptable. In addition, the hundreds of ridiculous and boring side quests need to be eliminated.

 

My hope is that it will fall somewhere in between the two. Open world with a stronger central story and side quests that are at least indirectly related to the main campaign.

 

EDIT: I love exploring this world way to much to want to go back to a purely linear experience. That being said, I could go for both a new game (Xenoblade Chronicles "___") and a direct sequel (Xenoblade Chronicles X2) within the NX's lifetime. 

 

At the pace that Monolithe works, that would require a full, healthy 6+ year rum for the NX.

Entirely new game.


I would love for a medieval fantasy JRPG with the same combat but better side quests.

If the cost is a smaller world, then so be it.


But tbh i would still buy a new xenoblade game, it's a good IP.



If you beat Xenoblade X you'd know what you're asking as far as expanding Mira or the original world is asking for the same thing. There is overwhelming evidence that Mira is the original XC world.



So like an expansion game? Like NSLU was to NSMBU? That sounds good to me!
