VGChartz's Chinh Tran: "2015 was another strong year for the RPG genre, which saw a good combination of established properties as well as new, independent titles. All of these titles ensured that the RPG genre continued to provide gamers with countless hours of enjoyment.
From our nominees, CD Projekt RED was able to conclude Geralt’s epic tale in The Witcher III: Wild Hunt, Bethesda released another gargantuan game in Fallout 4, FromSoftware continued to entertain and infuriate gamers with Bloodborne, Monolith Soft crafted one of the Wii U’s best games in Xenoblade Chronicles X, and indie hit RPG Undertale came out of nowhere to steal the hearts of hundreds of thousands of PC gamers."
The ill-fated Wii U sold very few units, so it is understandable if you missed out on Xenoblade Chronicles X, here are 9 reasons why you should play the Definitive Edition.
The nice thing about X is you have a Follow Ball. If you haven't played for a few days it will help you jump right back in! Fantastic game! You should at least have 5 initial hours over 2 days or so to invest. I also suggest grinding to at least level 14 before chapter 3.
It's nice that definitive edition makes level grinding easier. Quite a bit quicker than the original release.
I bought it thinking it was like the trilogy and expansion on Switch. I played it for 15 or so hours and stopped. Couldn't get into it, the gameplay was not like the previous ones, it was not what I expected.😕
Greatest RPG ever except end game makes it impossible to complete for anyone who focused on mech battles. Do not focus on mechs or you will be disappointed
A Fallout 4 Nintendo Switch 2 port seems like an inevitability, but what about other Bethesda RPGs like Starfield.
I think all games will end up on switch from Xbox. MS has embraced going to other platforms now if games aren't doing well on Nintendo MS may be more selective in the future
On playstation they have been quite successful
All are welcome to Switch 2. Microsoft Games Studios is interested in long term profits and market value not petty fanboy thoughts.
Netto's Game Room explains how the Xenoblade titles are connected to each other; from Xenoblade Chronicles, to the newly released Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition, and even Xenogears and Xenosaga.
1 - 3 are connected. Idk if X is connected since I haven't beaten the epilogue in X yet. X will probably be connected.
