Forums - Gaming - Xenosaga III

oliist on 14 July 2008

Actually i think even if you play Xenogears & all three Xenosaga Episodes you will never really understand everything.
Just because that is the way it was meant to be.Being complicated,complex,mysterious and open ended.Like life itself. ;)

The main thing I don't understand is why Square isn't making the Xenogears games anymore. Square was 10000x better at it. You don't find NEARLY as many people talking about how great Xenosaga is as how great Xenogears was.

 

The problem is that the original team split from Square and I'm pretty sure they own the Xenogears name. That's why when Monolith teamed with Namco, they called their game Xenosaga and made it a spiritual successor instead of a sequel.

 

And now Monilith Soft is owned by Nintendo

You should indeed play the first two in order to 'get' the story.

Xenogears (ps1) is not needed, but by itself a great RPG with a fascinating story.

It can't be the main part of the original team. I mean having played both the difference in quality is just staggering. Xenogears was one of the best RPGs of all time, Xenosaga is barely in the top 100 (with 2 and 3 falling well below the top 100 threshold). I can't believe that the team that made Xenogears can have fallen so far in such a short time. maybe Square just held them to higher production standards or something...

 

Yes, it actually is the original team including the writers. When they left they also took a good portion of the Chrono team with them to Namco and formed Monolith Software.



If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba

Makes you wonder why they're wasting so much time on Disaster when they could be developing more amazing RPGs...

From what I heard, Xenogears is a game that any self respecting RPG fan should play.

Xenogears to me is the best RPG on PS1
