Dunban ran ahead of the other two so they wouldn’t see his struggle. He could feel the power of the Monado tugging on his mind, trying to make him to surrender control of his body. He gritted his teeth; that could not happen. Not after the events of Sword Valley; it had nearly killed him.
They reached the bridge leading out of the colony. The symbol on the Monado brightened, and more electricity ran from the blade to Dunban’s body. He cried out in pain, trying desperately to keep his grip on the sword. But the Monado flew out of his hand and slid across the bridge as Dunban fell forward on to his palms and began to choke.
“Dunban!” Reyn caught up to him and knelt down beside him; Dunban was shaking uncontrollably, breathing hard and fast. “You can’t take any more of the Monado!” he said firmly.
“But I must!” Dunban looked up at the sword lying in the middle of the bridge. “I don’t have a choice!” He coughed and stared at the ground; it was splattered in blood. He fell silent, shivering all over. Reyn stared at him, not quite sure what to do.
In a new financial presentation, Nintendo highlights Xenoblade Chronicles as one of several series seeing "dramatic sales growth on Nintendo Switch," joining Kirby, Pikmin, and Metroid. Compared to 1.41 million copies on 3DS and Wii U, Xenoblade Chronicles has collectively sold 7.17 million copies on Switch between Xenoblade Chronicles 2, 3, and Definitive Edition.
I have bought every game no matter the system. Hopefully the Switch 2 is powerful enough to give this world the detail it deserves
Nintendo has now published a special anniversary video celebrating 25 years of Monolith Soft. The developer has also opened a special 25th anniversary webpage featuring multiple commemorative wallpapers as well as a special message from Representative Director Hirohide Sugiura.
I've got about 1500 hours into all 4 Xenoblade games. It's now tied with Zelda as my favorite series. We need a Xenoblade Warriors game.
Xenoblade Chronicles composer Kenji Hiramatsu reflects on his work and feels that it's "time for a fresh start."
There is no together at the top. There is only one top jrpg series. Xenoblade Chronicles series is alone at the top
I like the Xenoblades series but my ‘top’ series would be either the Trails series or Persona series. Just too many good games for me to just pick one series though, so I say play them all lol.
I'm not huge into JRPGs, but my favorite is easily the Persona series. It's all opinion though. Xenoblade is a great series.
