I had the privilege to attend my first MCM Expo over the weekend. Never being much of a manga, anime or comic fan, I made my way straight towards the Games Expo where Nintendo were in attendance amongst others.
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.
Tetsuya Takahashi has revealed his plan to make the next Xenoblade vastly different from previous games.
I liked the Xenoblade X formula. It takes awhile, but opening up Mechs was amazing. Especially once you can fly them, and use them in battle. You have to put some time into the game to do it, but it's worth it!
Also, the graphics were more realistic than the other games. Still looks good today, just a lot more pop-in than is acceptable today, hell even too much for back then. It wasn't game breaking though.
Xenoblade 1-3 and X are so great. That said, I'm ready for them to do a big change up.
Monolith Soft, the studio that worked on Xenoblade and Breath of the Wild, also helped to develop The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
No surprise there. They helped out in BOTW as well. Monolith Soft is one of Nintendo's hardest working studios. When they aren't making their own games they help other Nintendo studios with their games.
This comment literally added nothing, and all you did was repeat the headline lol
Still one of the best and most underrated map designers in the industry. Always loved their environments even back on Xenoblade Chronicles X
The amount of hidden caves and other secrets in ALL the Xenoblade games is staggering.
Underrated might not be the best term but their developed titles are on the lower end of the sales spectrum relative to Nintendo's power hits.
Xenoblade sells more like Metroid than Mario, basically. "Underappreciated" might be better.
Because people always have to say things are either underrated or overrated. Can never just be in the middle, it’s not allowed
When it comes to open world maps it's always rockstar, Ubisoft, etc etc and while the Zelda games get plenty of recognition, their other titles are never mentioned yet they are just as good. Honestly one of the very few devs willing to pack the hell out of their maps with unique secrets and storytelling that you can ONLY find by exploring whereas most other games make sure you see anything unique by attaching it to a quest. I love the idea of interesting things just existing without any exposition or context. It's just there, and it's beautiful, and any explanation of it has been lost to time, I love that
best rpg of last year, best rpg of america of this year
Glad to see the translation being finished ..now i guess it's time to look for localisation bugs and everything will be ready for september ...
