Which JRPG Has Better Sliding: Xenoblade Chronicles X or FFXV?

Kotaku:
There are many things we could compare between Xenoblade Chronicles X and Final Fantasy XV. But today, we're going to see which has the coolest-looking sliding. That's right, sliding.

vishmarx3487d ago (Edited 3487d ago )

this article is stupid even by kotaku standards.
also winner is - neither slides. theyre both janky and unrealistic

the winner is the guy who kicks a sword into the wolf

Now lets move on to another very important question:

What are your 3 favourite Final Fantasy games and what is your favourite non-Final Fantasy JRPG?!?

IGiveHugs2NakedWomen3486d ago

Persona 3, Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest 8, Final Fantasy 3, Chrono Cross, Persona 4, Suikoden, Xenogears, Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, The original Legend Of Zelda, Final Fantasy Tactics, Vagrant Story, Secret Of Mana, Phantasy Star 4, Legend Of Mana, Dragon Warrior 1 & 2, Shining Force 1 & 2, Breath Of Fire III, Lufia II.

These are the Jrpgs i've played on the SNES, Sega Genesis, and Playstation consoles.

Oh wait, Inindo: Way Of The Ninja SNES.

I haven't played a Jrpg with a good story in years, except Ni No Kuni.

"I haven't played a Jrpg with a good story in years, except Ni No Kuni. "

I am just glad that Persona 5 is a thing and gets hopefully released this year.

Xenoblade Chronicles had a better story than Ni No Kuni. In fact, I found the story to be kind of disappointing in NNK. It had a great premise but it never really made it to a satisfying plot.

wonderfulmonkeyman3486d ago

Xenoblade Chronicles and The Last Story both have great stories.

mydyingparadiselost3486d ago

Nier has an amazing story with numerous facets and multiple endings that not only expand on the story but often change your perspective of events throughout the game. It's amazing, it should be on your list.

Persona 4 is my fav non ff jrpg. Unfortunately the only ff games I have played are 7, 8, and the original. Working on 10 atm.

Ratty3486d ago

IV, VIII, XIV, Xenogears

GokuSolosAll3486d ago

Sliding isn't in jRPGs. Sounds like an action game to me.

Summons753486d ago

Gotta get out of that closed minded thinking style. Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Kingdom Hearts, FF15, XCX are all very much jrpgs.

elninels3486d ago

Action isn't allowed in JRPGs? Don't be ridiculous.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory3486d ago

Xenoblade Chronicles X since the franchise has a better track record.
Gears-Saga-Blade

Final Fantasy got worst after X.

vishmarx3486d ago (Edited 3486d ago )

1 released game doesnt make a franchise with a reliable track record

ritsuka6663486d ago

Well at least they have better track than Square Enix for sure.

elninels3486d ago

Not one game, one series that encompasses 3 games. Or to put it another way, an entire console generation.

Segata3486d ago

Yeah lets forget the talent behind XCX did Chrono Trigger,Xenogears and Xenosaga and Soma Bringer and NamcoXCapcom and many more.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3486d ago

Better question, which is the best type of Kotaku article? The answer? None, there is no such thing as a good Kotaku article.

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion162d ago (Edited 162d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled162d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?

Final Fantasy XV Review – A Royal Road Trip

Gary Green said: With my fondness for (most) Final Fantasy games and my side goal of finishing off games in my collection with loose ends, a return to Final Fantasy XV seemed inevitable. It also serves as my third Final Fantasy platinum trophy after VII and VIII, a reasonable substitute since Final Fantasy IX is nigh on impossible to master.

Final Fantasy 15 director reveals why he left Square Enix, and announces he's working on 2 new JRPGs

Final Fantasy 15's director has revealed why he left Square Enix back in 2018.

Hajime Tabata famously resigned from Square Enix two years after Final Fantasy 15 shipped in 2016. In a special livestream at the time, Tabata announced his decision to resign from the company, cancelling three of four new story-focused DLC episodes for Final Fantasy 15 in the process.

FF15 is like FF13 its subjective people either like it or hate it.

raWfodog294d ago

I liked it. I haven’t played the royale edition yet but I’ll get around to it one day.

gold_drake294d ago

no no, 15 wasnt trash.

15 had a tremendous difficult development.

FinalFantasyFanatic292d ago

I really believe 13 was better put together and more complete than 15 ever was.

EternalTitan293d ago

Found the pathetic troll.
How is your jobless life going?
Dot worry, you will never get a job or a girlfriend haha!

Hofstaderman294d ago

Man inherited a train wreck and was expected to release this game in under two years after it spent a better part of a decade in development hell. At one point there was even plans to make FFXIII Versus a musical. He did what he could.

TheColbertinator294d ago

I didn't care much for XV and I always wanted the original vision of Versus XIII but I think the dev team did what they could to salvage the project

Inverno293d ago

And yet people still blame him for the game turning out the way it did, rather than SE for the horrible mismanagement of 13 and Namura for being overly ambitious.

Dwarrior294d ago

Whatever the behind-the-scenes went on over the many years, at the end of the day it was a radical change in direction that I could not go along with. Also why I never bought 16.

gold_drake294d ago

this is also why Sakaguchi (spelling) left.
