    If you loved Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii or Nintendo 3DS, you will soon find yourself a new love in the form of Xenoblade Chronicles X on Wii U.

    That is because ultimately, in what the game tries to do, it succeeds completely: it creates an incredible, breathtaking, awe-inspiring world that is an absolute joy to run around in, to fight in, to collect in, to look around in, to be in. It may not have done so flawlessly, but Xenoblade Chronicles X gave me one of the finest worlds gaming has to offer, and it populated that world with incredible things to do.

    While those hoping to just pick it up and immediately know what they're doing are likely to be a bit overwhelmed at first, others who are looking for a deep title chock-full of systems and content that have a learning curve will be well taken care of. There are certainly issues, but they get swallowed up by the sheer quality of the base game and its focus on depth.

    Xenoblade Chronicles is otherwise great, but the thin main plot and sheer repetition drop the score. [Jan 2016]

    What Xenoblade Chronicles X loses because of its outdated visuals, it overcompensates with its content. It is a huge, long-lasting and yet throughout an entertaining title, which relies on combat and character development. [Issue#260]

    Massive open-world JRPG with astounding exploration but some pacing and storyline issues.

    It ought to remind us of what’s so good about the maximalism of other JRPGs.

Evolves open world design like no one else has. Explore on land and explore the world vertically. Fully uses 3D space. The game is pretty hardcore and lets you figure it out and no hand holding like older games. Exploring is amazing. Game is overwhelming in a great way. Also just a very beautiful game when you play it. Best game I played all year.… Expand

El apartado gráficoUno de los mejores Rpg que he jugado y un juego al que todo usuario de Wii U, que disfrute con el genero, debería jugar. El apartado gráfico es muy bueno y la historia es también muy buena. la banda sonora magnifica también, solo que cuando escuchas la canción que suena en New Los Angeles o la que sale cuando despegas con un Skell puede resultar repetitiva si llevas mas de 100 horas jugadas como es mi caso. Recomiendo edición coleccionista que está muy bien acabada.… Expand
