please no game comes even close to xenogears



exaclty
that's what i was saying
only ignorance of the story of xenogears can make you think about other stories in gaming being deep or deeper

and I'm sure your ignorant of Shining force 3's and Panzer Dragoon Saga's story, both of them only have had a fraction of the exposure of a successful playstation rpg like Xenogears


Or, hell, any given Western RPG for that matter.


 good point, no one's opinion is ever an absolute and there are many games are under exposed and do not recieve the overt fanfare of so many square rpgs, 

also for in regards to wrpgs, I brought up ultima for a reason

Xenogears was successful but apparently not enough to encourage Square to make the other proposed games in the Xenogears universe


successful enough to warrant a US greatest hits edition, which I believe was 400k copies and according to the sales figures here it''s sold nearly 900k in Japan, compared to shining force 3's recorded 130k for the first scenario and Panzer Dragoon's 110k in Japan and we all know that all late release US games for the saturn were very small production runs, so shining force 3 and Panzer Dragoon saga saw maybe a tenth of the number of copies produced of Xenogears, and that stands to say it saw far more exposure than the saturn games


They why didn't Square continue with the Xenogears storyline?

Aye too bad the 2nd disk turned out that way, the game wnet from a 100% too 95% beacuse of that.


bahh I dont want more (W)RPG's

the more (J)RPG's there are the better



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

 probably because the creators of xeno gears went on to namco and made xenosaga.

 If I remember correctly, Tetsuya Takahashi, creator of Xenogears and Xenosaga, become frustrated with Square becuase they would not allow him to continue the xenogears storyline
