    Sometimes I felt loss and I had no idea on where to go. I would then go grind and learn from a youtube video or just by common sense. The story is really wonderful with the great cast of characters and interesting plots.

    Honestly, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was in my top ten games of 2017. This game is great for people who enjoy JRPG's with a big world, lovable characters, and grinding for XP till their hearts content.    … Expand

    Xenoblade is by far one of the best games that I have ever played. It has an immersive universe, the map feels quite large, the story feels quite fitting and emotional, and the characters have wonderful personalities.

This game is pretty much the main reason why I bought a Switch, and honestly, I am not disappointed at all. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 with its over 70 hour long campaign, delivers a solid and deep combat system with an engaging story, full of lovable characters, paired with excellent music and visuals.

    The combat system is unlike anything I've played before. I did try a bit of the first Xenoblade via emulation, but due to issues, I could only play a few hours of it. Nevertheless, the complex combat system of Xenoblade 2 feels great to play overall. Chaining together Specials to form Blade Combos, and sealing enemies' attacks, before breaking all those seals and unleashing a massive amount of punishment on them always felt satisfying to do throughout the game. But even outside of combat, things are really engaging. There are tons of ways in which you can modify your blades, as well as your party members, which kept me tinkering with menus for a long time, trying to find the best setup I could come up with.

    The story is something I really got hooked on after playing for a while. There is always something to keep you on your toes and await the next cutscene or mission, be it lore or present events, but the end is where Xenoblade 2 really shines. This game has a wonderful ending, which I admittedly teared up on not once, but twice. The curiosity of what lies in Elysium always kept pushing me forward, while I gradually grew closer and closer to the characters.

    Finally, the audiovisual aspects. They can be simply stunning sometimes. I'm not the one for ambient music, but this game might have made me a fan. Be it grand, and powerful, or sad and melancholic, the music always hit a pleasant spot for me. The tracks with vocals are just simply amazing, and it really feels like a lot of effort has been put into the music. As for the visuals, they are absolutely beautiful. Scale plays a huge role here. Seeing the Titan you're on move its head or wings around with you walking on it just felt amazing to witness. Xenoblade 2 also likes to switch up its locations quite variably, which is a great thing. No two areas are remotely the same, their people as well as their structures are distinct to the point where you can recognize an in game nation just by their looks and style alone.

    My only real gripes with the game were the really slow and sloppy start and the gacha system. Once the story and the gameplay got going, I got sucked in, but before that, I was a bit unsure to keep playing or not. I glad I did though. As for the gacha, while it does vary up how you go through the game (with the random drops and all) I felt like the game should have been more generous with the drop rates for Rare Blades or just rarer Core Crystals. I did like how all of the rare blades have their own flushed out histories and personalities, though. Additionally, the inn system is something that I was kind of confused about. The bonus EXP you get is just way too much, and I'd advise players who are planning on picking this up to just ignore the inns and the bonus EXP, because it is super easy to overlevel yourself with it, and that's never a fun thing.

    Overall, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is an outstanding game. A lot of people brush it off just because of its Japanese style, or slow starts, but it really, REALLY pays off in the end. It has so much content, polish, and love put into every one of its aspects. If you really do love JRPGs, this is a must. If you get through its slow start, you'll find one of the best gaming experiences you can ever witness on the Nintendo Switch.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I want to start out by saying that this game has a fair amount of problems, and that I would not recommend this to everyone. That said, this is the perfect game for me.

    THE game has a deep and interesting STORY. I particularly loved the main blades', Morag's and Jin's stories, as they develop from just "bad" or "good" guys, to people you care for and have sympathy for, as they were all put in difficult situations they didn't know what to do about. I also love how the story introduces a little comedy whenever the game goes too deep in on a topic such as the meaning of life, morality, the death of loved ones etc. as this keeps the game from becoming depressing, but still allows the game to develop a deep and interesting story that shows that the developers cared about the player.

    THE COMBAT in this game was also great, albeit not introduced in the best way (the game uses a LOT of text prompts, and doesn't give you the option to re- read about a feature you have already been explained once before). I especially liked how the game allows you to have your very own combat style, being able to choose (as long as you grind a bit) exactly what blades you want to use, with the choice of in total six different types of tanks, healers and attack blades. I, myself loved how the game lets you exploit canceling the auto attack of pyra/ mythra, to instead allow you to recharge your arts super fast, rather than doing a bit more damage. The elemental attacks and combos, their ability to seal away enemy attacks, combined with chain attacks, all while the combat is in real time, makes each combat encounter an expertly crafted strategy game, while keeping the pace of combat quite high. The enemies' abilities to have different attack styles, just like yourself, and adapt to your attack style makes each combat encounter feel slightly different, and keeps combat fun through the entire game (although I could see how it might feel a bit grindy, as this keeps each battle going for longer, and you'll be in combat a LOT).

    SIDE QUESTS, however, get VERY grindy, and are not too original or too fun to play through if you are not a total completionist (like me). However, I still enjoyed the grind a lot, and loved levelling up blades and feeling the pure satisfaction of every affinity chart I finished (what can I say, the combat is just fun enough, and the stories in some cases justified the grind).

    Lastly, this game has BY FAR the BEST SOUNDTRACK I have ever heard in any game that I have played (but then, again, I haven't played that many other games compared to most people). The environments are also extremely beautiful, and that's enough said.    … Expand

    I absolutely LOVE the story, characters, environments, music, and above all else, the battle system of this game. I even like the gacha mechanics to get rare blades. Xenoblade 2 is, along with its predecessor, an absolute masterpiece! I deduct 1 point from the score because the menu becomes a mess after you get a load of items. Give me the option to MANUALLY organize my stuff, Monolith...

La difficulté est bien dosée tout au long du jeu avec parfois quelque pic intéressant.

    Les seuls défauts qui m'ont vraiment gêné, c'est la technique très faiblarde lors des chargements, notamment après des TP ou dans certaine phase d'action même en cinématique avec l'aliasing et du flou sévère. Les quêtes annexes sont aussi pas toute très intéressantes et nécessite parfois de se téléporter de multiples fois à droite à gauche. Elle représente également une grande partie du jeu, y en vraiment beaucoup, c'est bien si elle en valait tout le coup. Les animations sont ultra basiques et robotique et parfois des soucis de le doublage parfois mal joués pour les voix en anglais.

    Great sequel to Xenoblade 1, it was big shoes to fill and Monolith delivered. The story has a slow start, but is compelling overall with fantastic concluding chapters. The only complaint I'll list here is the English voice acting of Rex. He has a pleasant speaking voice, but could not show emotion at all. This caused some powerful scenes to fall flat which was tragic.

However the game has its fair share of flaws such as the resolution which maxes at 720p (underwhelming by today's standards) and often dips below this with the game genuinely looking like a PS2 game in some instances, the frame rate also dips below 30 on numerous occasions. The lip syncing is also non existent which kinda breaks the immersion but isn't too much of a problem and the game doesn't do a very good job at explaining things a lot of the time, as well as the waypoint which is pretty bad at directing you on where to go. Overall, the game is great and definitely worth checking out despite its flaws, I just can't shake the feeling though that this game was rushed to meet the holiday 2017 deadline.… Expand

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is everything I love about a good JRPG.
    It is Cheese it is Baiting and it has a wonderful and heart touching story. (No, I didn't cry at the end YOU DID!) It kept me playing for a full week to total of 70 hours (yes, I had a week vacation for it) and now I am playing the expansion pass.

    Before I start this review, let me make it clear that I am not a big fan of Japanese RPG's, and for a lot of different reasons. Most of them utilize turn-based combat, which is something I almost always really don't like, but even when they don't, I find them to be too weird for my taste. But Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the few JRPG franchises that I love, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 isBefore I start this review, let me make it clear that I am not a big fan of Japanese RPG's, and for a lot of different reasons. Most of them utilize turn-based combat, which is something I almost always really don't like, but even when they don't, I find them to be too weird for my taste. But Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the few JRPG franchises that I love, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is no exception.

    The story of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is great, as it includes a very memorable cast of characters and many interesting and shocking plot elements. If you were disappointed with the story of Xenoblade Chronicles X, don't worry, this game has a story that is leagues better than the previous one. Though, it does get off to a very rough start, as the first 2 chapters are not very impressive in the story department. But, believe me, once you get past that point, the story and characters completely explode in quality and make the first 5-10 hours so worth it. I won't go much more in depth on the story, as you really should experience it for yourself, but I will warn you that the last couple chapters include some very shocking and unexpected moments that you will never forget. And what happens, you may ask? Play the game and find out.

    Now, I would like to discuss the negative parts of this game, because this game can certainly be bad in places. Firstly, as I said before, the early chapters (1 & 2) are rather lackluster and really failed to impress me. Throughout these chapters, the combat is rather dull, most of the characters feel very stereotypical, and, worst of all, the game has technical problems in the early areas, which include slowdown and framerate drops throughout a lot of the second area, Gormott. Thankfully, these problems seem to have been mostly fixed now, but they definitely were a problem closer to launch. Secondly, and this is a subjective choice, but I am not a fan of the art style of this game, as the previous two game had art styles that helped them feel more ambiguous (like a combination between western and Japanese RPG's), whereas this one looks way too anime-like for my taste. Speaking of which, this game includes some very weird and cringe-inducing moments within the earlier chapters, and some of them even made me want to stop playing for a while. They become less and less prevalent as the game progresses, but still, they feel out of place one way or another.

    Even though this game has some very low points, the high points do so much more than just make up for them. First, once you get past chapter two, this games combat system becomes so addictive and fun, as it not only allows the player to use a variety of different fighters but just feels that perfect refinement of typical Xenoblade combat. Even now I still cannot get of the combat in this game, and I don't think it will ever grow stale for me. Next, the areas of this game, which are referred to as "Titans," are very memorable and well-designed, as most of them are open to exploration and include many different side quests to complete. Some of the most memorable titans include Gormott, Uraya, Tantal, and Leftherian Archipelago. Also, the character development in this game is absolutely amazing, as most of the characters go from being typical JRPG characters to unique and loveable characters throughout the course of the story. I won't mention any names, as I really want to avoid spoiling anything, but just remember not to be so quick to judge any of the characters in this game. Some other excellent parts of this game include fun and challenging super bosses, large affinity charts to complete for each character, memorable side quests and seemingly endless customizations to give.

    In conclusion, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, when its at its best, it is a top-notch RPG. However, thanks to its shortcomings, I cannot give this game any higher than a 9/10. If they would've given us a better early game and more realistic art style, then I easily could've given this game a 10/10. But, you know, this is still a fantastic game, and I highly recommend that every JRPG fan picks this game up, as you will not be disappointed.    … Expand

    For me, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a double-edged sword (just like the Aegis though it means shield) type game.

    At times the game excels like its fun and complex combat and music. Then there are neutral elements such as the graphics and voice syncing. And then there are the bad things like the awful navigation system where I got lost a bunch of times, and some really cliche parts.

Alrest is filled to the brim with stunning environments that are a joy to explore, and the characters you lead through your journey are well-written and hard not to love. A deep and satisfying combat system (which admittedly does take a little while getting fully fleshed out) ensure the gameplay is up to snuff with the great world-building and chill inducing narrative. The soundtrack is equally on par, with some distinctive, captivating tracks that add to the grandiose nature of Alrest.

    It's a huge game full of content that could easily have you playing for over 100 hours - and what a time you'll have!

    The game touches on some pretty deep themes like the fleetingness of life and the need to find meaning to it on an individual basis. 'Blades' struggle with the idea that their memories are reset in their cycle of death and rebirth. I was really happy with the introspective dialogue and complex feelings of the characters.

    This is one of my favourite games on the Switch and is easy to recommend, especially if you're into JRPGs or are looking for a huge game to sink your teeth into. It's standalone expansion, Torna - The Golden Country, is also well worth checking out for fans of this game.    … Expand

    I'm now on my second play through of the game and I'm just as marveled. Between the engrossing storyline, battle system, fulfilling characters, colorful graphics, vast environments; there's little room for improvement.

    One complaint I've noticed across the board with people is the graphics and framerate. People like to compare the graphics to consoles such as the PS4 and Xbox and fret over the lack of. I do not find this to get an issue. But then again, I understand the hardware limits of the Nintendo Switch. For it's form factor, it's quite impressive. As for framerate, this was remedied a few updates ago.

    I will say, if you're not a fan of jrpgs, this game might not be for you. There are very heavy jrpg elements to this game, from the story to the music. I find them to get enchanting however.

Having never played a game in the Xenoblade series and looking for an RPG to get into on the Switch, I made the decision to jump right in and see what Xenoblade Chronicles 2 had to offer. Although there are pros and cons, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a fantastic RPG that every Nintendo Switch owner should consider looking into.

    Let's get some of the negative things out of the way. This game needed a bit more polishing to smoothen out some of its rough edges. One of my biggest gripes is that some of the game mechanics are simply not explained to the player, or they're confusing. So it is possible to go through the game without realizing its full potential unless you look them up. The way side quests are handled can be confusing because sometimes the game won't mark a quest on your map properly, which can lead to frustration. Also, sometimes the environment can work against you during combat. For example, you find yourself fighting and killing an enemy next to or over a cliff, which you may or may not be able to reposition, and lose those item drops as a result. Lastly, prepare to spend a lot of time in the menu since you'll need to unlock skills, swap out characters, etc., which may become tedious.

    Now, let's focus on all the good. The soundtrack is simply amazing, I found myself just wandering around and exploring an area just to listen to it. Speaking of, the game rewards you for exploring: looking in every little nook and cranny might yield something useful. The characters develop in a meaningful way, their conversations are well written, which are often very charming and funny. Once the mechanics are understood, the combat can be complex. Finally, for those who like to hunt for every item, this game has much to offer in that department.

    All in all, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a damn fine RPG that is fun, engaging, and will have you sinking, possibly, hundreds of hours into it. Sure, this game is flawed in many ways, but despite that, it really is just great experience throughout. If you are a Switch owner, do yourself a favor and pick this one up.    … Expand

There are significant cons of this game, but the game plot and combat system is way better than any other RPG I played this year.

    Cons: There are two large cons of this game. First, literally, the map of this game sucks. You don't get many useful information from your small/large map on the screen. Whenever you need to find an npc or just try to figure out where you are, you need to press X, and search for a little while in another navigation system. Moreover, the map system is fragmented. In any other open-world RPG like Zelda, Watchdog etc. you will have a large map that illustrates everything. But it's not the case in Xenoblade 2, which is super annoying. Second, the combat system is great, but the tutorial sucks. I don't use the word "suck" very often in my actual life, but I used it twice here, because the map and tutorial of the combat system literally sucks. To be fair, the combat system is super cool but complicated. However, you don't get much out of the super long and fragmented in-game tutorials. I don't understand how the combos work at all, and what's worse, there is no way you can replay the tutorials! Then I searched online and there is some combat guide. Hey, you know what, I understand how the combo system works by spending 10 minutes reading some short paragraphs with picture illustrations. Come on Monolith, can you put some illustrations and tutorials in the game so people can check whenever they want? How difficult would that be?

    Pros: With all that said, it's very hard to start enjoying the real fun of this game. But, if you are patient, and you get through all the initial hurdles of learning the basics, you will realize the game is fabulous. First, for people who like RPG or JRPG, the game plot is very good. Second, the combat system is really, really fun. My problem of RPG is that I get tired of the battles very soon, because all the battles are generally the same and you just repeat your moves. The thing you do is to get your level up, get better equipment, and repeat the moves in a battle. Well, it's still the case that you "repeat" your move during a battle in Xeno 2, but there are so many varieties you can play with. First, different combination of blades will give you different strategies to play with, and you need to focus (in an enjoyable way) to play different combos in the game. It feels so good battling in Xeno 2, because the "reward" or "joy" of playing good strategies and combos is tremendous. There are some other pros of this game, like collecting blades, nurturing them etc., which is super fun and keep you interested in playing this game.

    One critic says only "die-hard" JRPG fans will love this game, but I really want to say any people who loves RPG will love this game. This game will definitely be better if it's released one year later, when it's better polished and all the small problems are fixed. But hey, this game is really worth of a 10/10. Overcoming the initial hurdles, and the real fun is waiting for you.    … Expand

The battle system is a bit simpler, and it is notably easier to defeat bosses with higher levels than you, while still being difficult when it needs to. However, there are notable shortcomings. Characters often repeat battle phrases WAY too often. The animations can be choppy at times, especially when on the go, which hurts an otherwise fantastic JRPG. Then, the final nail in the coffin, the character designs are...questionable. It wouldn't be a JRPG without this popping up in some form but in the case of deuteragonist Pyra (Voiced by Skye Bennet), her design is ridiculous and makes it hard to take some characters seriously. Thankfully, this does not apply to everyone, and a lot of other designs stand out, say, Fire Blade Dagas.

    - un jeu complet, TRES complet, voire parfois trop dense (microgestion des Lames, des missions mercenaires, des stats, inventaire pléthorique...)
    - énormément de Lames génériques
    - pas mal de PNJ génériques
    - indicateurs d'objectif imprécis surtout en nombre, carte assez ratée
    - la Switch trébuche parfois en cas de grosse charge graphique à l'écran
    - protagonistes toujours aussi bruyants en combat (comme XC1)

    - un chapitre final absolument haletant et une fin stratosphérique d'anthologie, riche en révélations bien au-delà d'Alrest!
    - une réalisation ainsi qu'une mise en scène magistrales! On est dedans!

    - Difficulty. I´ve just finished Octopath Traveller and I have to say it is much easier than this XC2, You are gonna die, a lot, period. The world is full of high level monsters you want to avoid and some bosses are quite hard to beat.
    - Music. I am more a a fan of classic music for jrps rather than electronic/modern music, but despite this fact, the soundtrack is amazing
    - Duration

    Cons:
    - Story (It,s decent, but I didn´t fell in love with it)
    - Graphically, it could be more polished

    A game worth playing if you enjoy jrpgs.

    To be honest this game took me a few tries to get into, but now that I have gotten use to a few things it is a very fun game.

I feel like it tries to make you walk a certain path instead of saying hey the object you want is north it tries to tell you to walk east then south then north. Which ends up being confusing and runs you into high level monsters that 1 hit you.
    - Some of the places quests try to send you to are hard to find. Trying to dodge higher level monsters while looking for a specific area can get annoying and take unnecessary amount of time.
    - The tutorial can really use some work, but with there being youtube to help out it doesn't hurt much.

    After getting past those few things I would highly recommend it to people who are into JRPG's.    … Expand

    Este Jrpg es uno de los mejores exclusivos que posee el catalogo de Nintendo Switch. Posee un sistema de combate que al principio puede parecer simple pero en realidad es muy complejo y puede que tardes en dominarlo.

Managing all the different system for each of your characters can be enjoyable at times, but more often than not felt like busywork. Figuring out how to use the battle system is unclear and it takes several hours until you unlock the mechanics which actually make combat fun. Many of the characters are over-designed, and frankly look a bit hideous. The side quests are serviceable, but never engaged me nearly as much as the main story content. However, apart from one or two pacing issues and a few inconsistent vocal performances, I love just about everything else. The story is relatively intricate and deep, and leads to some very effective emotional beats. The characters are (for the most part) quite well defined and enjoyable to interact with. The soundtrack is outstanding, and contains some of my favorite songs from any video game I've ever played. The battle system can be tremendously fun in the latter half, and has some very unique and satisfying mechanics. The worlds are vast and enjoyable to explore. Visually it's incredibly good, the substandard resolution is a shame, but it doesn't actively detract from the experience while playing. It is unfortunate that Xenoblade Chronicles 2 doesn't contain the level of consistency seen in it's predecessor, but it is still highly worthwhile. In fact, the high points in 2 are often far higher than those in 1, even if the overall quality doesn't quite match up. I'd recommend trying Xenoblade 2 out, if you can get past the flaws it's one of the most unique and beautiful games out there.… Expand

    While the game still has some little issue in game mechanics and several cliché in the story, I found it was still very addictive, worth over 100 hours playing.

    The story of the game is great, it discussed some deep themes and isnt afraid to delve into darker territories. Its filled with unexpected twists and turns and truly explores the characters’ personalities, putting them at their lowest before breaking through with a magnificent crescendo.

    This is accompanied by perhaps the best soundtrack of any game ive ever played. The lyrical tracks are hit-or-miss, but the exploration themes and especially cutscene music (such as Counterattack or the violin version of Drifting Souls) are unforgettable and i still listen to them despite having finished the game over a year ago. The voice acting is surprisingly good for an anime rpg. Some characters are just plain bad (the protagonist in particular cannot scream to save his life, but is otherwise decent) but the majority give life to their characters, some even surpassing their japanese counterparts. Nia, Gramps, and Malos come to mind-their english VAs going as far as to completely change how you view the character.

    The combat is a hit-or-miss. Not everyone likes it but those that do like it a lot. Its real-time instead of turn-based, which is always welcome imo. Your character does basic attacks on their own, while its up to you to control their arts (skill) usage, positioning, and combos. It starts out slow but as they start rolling out more features and your arts start recharging more often due to being higher level it gets entertaining. Its also more about strategy than skill-how you set up your party with blades and accessories is just as important as how you perform in battle.

    The game is moderately difficult, but becomes nearly impossible if you dont grasp the convoluted upgrade mechanics (personally i didnt have a problem with it, but you may need to look up tutorials if it gets confusing). There are some difficulty spikes here and there in the story that require either grinding or altering your strategy, but otherwise it isnt that difficult if you make sure to keep your level up. If it gets too difficult though, you can always switch to easy mode (or even customise the difficulty, if you have the dlc)

    The world-building in the game is fantastic. It all takes place on the backs of titans-giant living beings that are dying out. Due to this, all the different titans you explore have vastly different scenery-all of it breathtaking. I found myself exploring just for the sake of seeing more of the magnificent world theyve crafted. This is slightly hampered by skill-checks, which require you to have certain blades to get through the environment, but it doesnt intrude too much with the overall experience.

    The performance is fairly stable, and the resolution isnt too bad most of the time, but you can get as low as 15 fps if battles get too chaotic, and the resolution may dip, making the beautiful scenery look like pixelated mush. Play docked if you can.

    Finally, yes the game has fanservice. A lot of it. This turned me off at the beginning, making it difficult to enjoy cutscenes, but you eventually get used to it. If its any comfort, all the fanservice blades have significant character that can be explored in their side quests, and can be completely ignored (besides the main cast) if you dont like their designs, which are great if you disregard the boob-windows and low-cut outfts.

    It took me about 80 hours to finish the story but i ended up spending nearly 300 hours enjoying the game. Its a must have for any jrpg fan, and anyone who enjoys epic stories, breathtaking world to explore and sweeping orchestras that stick with you long after youve put the game down.    … Expand

Porque eu acho que todos vocês que gostam do gênero tem que ter essa experiencia impar que estou tendo no momento, e quem tem em mãos o Nintendo Switch, gosta de RPG e    Antes de mais nada, vou deixar claro que eu provavelmente nunca joguei um jogo melhor antes, pude experimentar ele só nos dias atuais - dois anos depois do lançamento original em 2017.
    E porque estou fazendo essa análise? Porque eu acho que todos vocês que gostam do gênero tem que ter essa experiencia impar que estou tendo no momento, e quem tem em mãos o Nintendo Switch, gosta de RPG e não tem esse jogo ainda, isso é uma lástima. Aprendi a jogar o jogo de verdade (ou quase isso, porque eu acho que eu ando fazendo alguma coisa de errada ainda) depois das 50 horas dentro dele, masterizando os recursos de batalhas, equipamentos, blades e etc. Mas vamos ver o porque disso tudo.

    Ah, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, no primeiro momento que você liga o game você pode até dar uma entortada no naríz ao perceber que o estilo dos personagens mudaram muito, deixaram eles mais cartunescos, com um jeitão mais de animê.
    Fiz isso também, fiz isso quando saiu o trailer a um tempo atrás, porque eu realmente gostava muito daqueles personagens do primeiro game, eu achava que eles tinham uma pegada mais séria, mais até digamos assim, melancolica até, com aqueles olhos penetrantes e expressões faciais de quem teve um dia ruim. Era um charme, um carisma para aqueles heróis.

    Nesta aventura atual, você é controla um jovem menino de 15 anos chamado Rex, ele é um Salvager, que é um tipo de explorador sub-aquático (sub-nuvenático? Porque o mar na verdade é tratado como nuvem, cloud-sea como dizem) que coleta tesouros e os mais variados artigos em troca do bom e velho dindin. Trabalhando numa guilda e fazendo a sua vida indo nesses tipos de missões para as pessoas que contratam ele, e o que ele ganha ele manda para sua família via um mensageiro.

    Como em Xenoblade Chronicles 1, as pessoas vivem em **** que ficam andando e nadando pelo cloud-sea, envolta da World Tree no centro do mundo. Sua casa é um titã pequeno chamado Azurda, referenciado por Gramps durante o game, porque bem, ele é tratado como o avô do nosso herói.

    Meu objetivo aqui não é dar spoilers da história (que é o ponto mais forte na minha opinião), até porque esse foi o motivo pelo qual eu comentei bastante como funciona o universo do game um pouco mais acima, mas eu vou dar algumas explicações a medida que a análise continua. Mas eu vou adiantar que é um explosão de miólos a cada episódio do game, do inicio ao fim.

    Xenoblade Chronicles dois também teve suas músicas feitas pelo mesmo grupo, o ACE+, só que parece que tiverem bem mais carinho e empenho nas trilhas deste game, e também, não só do Chronicles 2 como o da expansão: Torna, the Golden Country (oh my GOD)

    Tem muita coisa sim que se parece com os games anteriores da série, ainda bem!
    Principalmente a maneira que você explora o mundo. Continua naquele esquema de você lidar com períodos do dia, clima e etc, e você dando no pé quando avista um monstro com 70 levels acima do seu. Toda a aventura terá landmarks que representaram pontos de fast-travel que são acessíveis a qualquer instante do jogo.
    São mais de 10 mundos que você pode explorar e mais de 20 dungeons, o jogador pode estar literalmente na frente de um boss importante da história e apertar o menu de mapa para entregar um item prum Nopon aleatório que está a milhares de quilômetros de distancia que te deu uma quest, isso é muito bom porque você realmente vai fazer muito disso se o objetivo for concluir as centenas de side-quests recompensadoras do game.

    E pasmem, não tem missables o jogo, mesmo uma região que fica inabitável no capitulo 8 (de 10), todas as quests e shops são migradas para outro local, então kudos para a Monolith, você não precisa ter pressa para realizar os objetivos extras do jogo MAS, entretanto, faça o que você pode assim que possível porque ficará algo meio chato se você estiver com um nível muito superior ao objetivo explícito ali, e a recompensa não vai lhe acompanhar também, então fica a dica.

    As quests do jogo tem um grande fator importante para a história secundária sim! Muita coisa interessante para se ver, muita coisa que você só consegue mesmo fazendo essas aventuras secundárias. Isso inclui ceninhas nos heart-to-heart (que são interações especiais entre determinados personagens) até recrutamento de blades raros, seus "pokemons" que tem um fator importantíssimo nas batalhas E exploração.
    Por fim, CLARO que eu recomendo que a compra seja feita, que esse jogo esteja na sua prateleira física ou digital. Sem dúvidas, não tem como alguém que goste do gênero não se apaixonar por essa maravilha gameística. Eu sempre quis ter a oportunidade de jogar isso, e acho que foi o dinheiro mais bem gasto dos últimos tempos na minha opinião.    … Expand

    A fight with an ordinary enemy whose level is slightly higher can drag on for minutes, especially if you’re fighting it alone. The combat itself is also rife with problems: sometimes main character even fails to draw his weapon, or locks onto a far-off enemy, while another already is eviscerating him in close combat.

    Extensive and massive JRPG. Although with a rather cliché story and characters, it comes with a beautiful world and a fighting system growing more and more complex with every hour played. [Issue#282]
