Enough. We don't need more of these.

9 out of 10 experts agree that we do in fact need more of these

Says you. There's only been four Xenoblade games in 16 years. We could do with some more.

Did the additional chapter in the switch version of X give closure to the story or do we still need X2?

It's... complicated.

Seeing SyntheticMan seethe about his game when he never even played 3 was hilarious.

Like who is he trying to fool? Fans know he's full of shit. And new players are jumping in with XC1 all the time.

The attempts at pretending that XC1 'is the only good one' is doomed to failure.

so is the next one going to be called xenoblade exodus

Finally playing through XC1 after bouncing off the Wii version on release. Accidentally speedran through Valak Mountain. When the fuck does this wannabe KOS-MOS bitch join my party? It's getting to the point that I'm holding off on doing content just so I have stuff to do when my party's finally filled out, but the game keeps teasing me.

The slow burn starts after that area. Once you get to the meckon area, you're going to want to take a long break from the game.

>>741470885
If we go by original stories then there's relatively more, since adding in the DLCs adds four more smaller games.

But I think Xenoblade is especially liked because it's so fresh and novel. Final Fantasy is a very old franchise that's having a very hard time staying relevant with new entries. Dragon Quest plays it safe, and scrapping Flames of Fate for Beyond Dreams just proves that. Fire Emblem has remodeled itself after Awakening, and now after Three Houses, which was sort of the peak of its popularity. Shin Megami Tensei V is fairly old. Persona hasn't had a chronologically progressive story in ten years. And that's not getting into smaller ones like Atelier, Tales of, Ys, and so on.

So Xenoblade is something brand new, with a cool premise, interesting stories and twists, memorable characters, fun settings, and engaging gameplay. Genesis looks like high fantasy with elves, but seems to take place in either a ring world or a Dyson sphere, so there's gotta be more cool bullshit to discover here.
>>
>>741472581
I do like the idea of the Final Fantasy approach though. Where the franchise has lots of little traditional elements that they can play with and rearrange in new worlds and stories. The problem is that their recent games have been hot garbage.

Xenoblade Genesis is an odd case. I'm sure that Monolithsoft will tie it into some grander plotline with some Perfect Works breadcrumbs to keep the Gears/Saga grandpas salivating over a story that will literally never happen if for IP rights alone. But we now know that this is Project Legacy, which by all accounts wasn't originally supposed to be a Xenoblade game. Inferring from Takahashi's interviews, it sounds like this was supposed to be a new original IP that got Xenoblade slapped on the title to get the green light from Nintendo. I don't know if trying to make this into a Xenoblade game is for the better or for the worse.

>>741473163
>The problem is that their recent games have been hot garbage.
It just feels like a lot of spinning its wheels, while the earlier Final Fantasy games had interesting plots. FF16 felt like mostly spectacle, and while I really liked the political intrigue of the first half, characters kept dropping like flies, and then it got so empty it just got boring. And its plot felt like a retread of 7, 9, and Spirits Within.

And then the 7 Remake series are all up their own ass about ambiguity in time travel, which dilutes the original theming of environmentalism, Cloud's status as an unreliable narrator, and the grotesque nature of the Thing-like infectious alien organism. I don't mind time travel in stories, I know some games that do it really well and I like it. But turning Sephiroth into some master timeline-spanning chessmaster that leaves people confused just makes him a weaker villain to me, and 7 was never about time travel in the first place.

I'm kinda surprised how often I've heard people in Kinoblade threads poopoo on 1 in comparison to 2 and X.
I just hit chapter 11 and I love the pacing, characters, and gameplay and if this is close to the bottom for this franchise then I'm pretty stoked to see where things go.

>>741473602
Yeah, and Squeenix legit ponders on why the new generation of Gamerz doesn't care about FF.
Bitch if a 10 years old kid started playing videogames in 2016, by the time FFXVI released the kid is already 18.

But bro, just imagine how great its going to be going through 6 chapters of boring fantasy slop to finally get how that fantsy slop connects to the xeno universe in a huge lore dump in space
>>
>>741473981
People would not be fans of Xenoblade as a series if Xenoblade 1 wasn't a damn good game.
Genuine spoilers the problem with the game is the ending. I couldn't help but feel really fucking bad for Melia the entire time and it's not the kind of note that the game really should've ended on. The reason why Xenoblade 2 is so beloved, titties aside, is that it has an amazing ending, frankly the only game in the franchise with an amazing ending.
>>
>>741473981
I mean 1 is still probably the most celebrated game in the series overall. 2 is a great game but it appeals to waifu people, so it's a bit overhyped on this board. X is kind of its own thing entirely, its fans absolutely love it, but a lot of people don't.
>>
>>741465203
Agreed. The first one was good. Could do without 2, 3, X, and now this.

What are you talking about? 1 was always beloved on /v/.
>>741474125
I thought FC was the fine conclusion for her but then 3 did things even worse.
>>
>>741473981
People poop on 1 for its gameplay being simple compared to the rest.
X's combat is kind of a mess and not nearly as well thought out as the main three, but it's still fun.
2 and 3 add cool stuff like launch+smash and burst combos, ouroboros transformations and stuff.

I kinda hated how 3 bifurcated reaction combos.
>>
>>741474661
I like it. Launch and Smash do great damage but edge up the boss's rage meter.
Burst ends their rage and also gets you extra drops.
Managing them is fun and you can just order your party to do one or the other with a button press so they don't accidentally do what you don't want.

I hope they are slightly moving to the action combat like FF7 Remakes

Xenoblade causes such unhinged levels of derision simply for existing and being a niche Nintendo exclusive.
I came to the realization during the XB3 pre-release period while struggling to get into Elden Ring that Monolithsoft games are really the only thing I care about within gaming now.
While Not-E3 this year was satisfactory Genesis getting announced after I got over my lukewarm initial reaction to the trailer became my darkhorse most anticipated/hype game of the entire event.

Part of me thinks that the radio scene in FR was a sendoff to that whole idea, instead of a declaration of intent. He knows it'll never happen even if people want it, so retroactively the 3 + 3 Xenoblade games become that story for the people that want it.
>>
>>741465203
Why? We're on the fourth game, many franchises are in their 20th, why not have more Xenoblade?

These games are basically native isekai trash, but more Mitsudakino is appreciated.

Just realized the Switch 2 edition doesn't actually add anything to the game, just performance boost
>>
>>741465776
It closes up the story of X but opens up more questions for the overall franchise.
Essentially, chapter 13 <spoiler>explains that the universe of Xenoblade X exists parallel to the universe of the numbered series but instead of Klaus getting his hands on the Conduit some Samaarian scientist did and he used it to create the Ares, and it is because of the existence of the Ares, or rather its cores, that the Ghost attacked Elma's homeworld and then Earth when Elma arrived on the Ares, as the Ghost are basically universe-correcting entities that bleed forth from a higher plane into other universes to fix the fuckups of mortals who come into contact with the Conduit; the Ghost find their way to Mira and erase the shit out of it so everyone in NLA gets on the Ma-Non ship and phase-shift into the numbered universe, arriving at the newly formed Earth after Xenoblade 3; also, the reason why the mims didn't stop working when the Lifehold was destroyed is because souls don't actually exist physically within bodies but rather in the space between universes, so by syncing their minds with the mims they essentially transferred their whole beings into the mims.</spoiler>

>>
>>741478763
It's a neat detail that Shulk, Riku + company kinda accidentally stumbled on the same exact technology that a super-advanced race of ancient aliens who conquered the galaxy did and got themselves fucked by Ghosts because of it. It implies the Ghosts will visit the mainline at some point, given that the Ouroboros is the same thing as the Ares. The Iris in X3 even use the same color scheme UI as the ancient Samaarians tech.

>>741478402
I feel like with Genesis it's either the start of a new sequential series, or with each game now it's going to be standalone on the surface before linking up to the rest of the series later. Probably most likely the latter as Takahashi wants new players to be able to just jump into the series without having to play the other games. Basically something like Xenosage 1-3 and Xenoblade 1-3 are unlikely to happen again, but he'll still touch on the Perfect Works as much as he can.
>>
>>741465776
It's setting up a multiverse scenario with xenogears/saga/blade worlds all come together in some elaborate way of finishing the perfect works. Genesis is rumored to be a soft reboot, retelling of Xenogears also

It provided a bit more closure, with a different/slight cliffhanger/teaser at the end.
It did have it's moments SAY THE WORDS but the biggest impression for me is how it retconned the entire mystery of Mira... The original seemed to be setting up Mira as some sort of metaphysical purgatory with L'cirufe/Lucifer, the lack of language barriers, Lao coming back at the end, etc. But then DE decided it was all just about this generic faceless "VOID" mook, that L has no significance, and that the tease with Lao in the original wasn't even him coming back as implied.

Maybe I'm just a retard who read too much into the original ending over the past 10 years but it was definitely a letdown for me.

I wouldn't say that it's bad but it's definitely the weakest out of the trilogy. The characters are pretty boring and I played it right after 2 so it kind of surprised me on how sterile they were.

It feels like they just gave up on writing when they were 75% of the way through the story. I guess the characters weren't very interesting to Takahashi.

If I didn't play Xenoblade i'd feel too much like a normie. When I see someone having played most Nintendo first-party games but there is no Xenoblade in that list, I honestly lose respect for that person.

>>741494592
That's like saying you can't enjoy Tomb Raider (older good games), classic Resident Evil, Dino Crisis, or Metroid games just cause the protag is female.

Or you can't enjoy some of the greatest horror films of all time such as Alien just because the main character is female.

Or you can't listen to music made by female artists.

I understand preferences, but I also think it has to do with immaturity on your end. Maybe you'll eventually grow out of this phase, maybe not. Either you'll be missing out.

Finish the game first. I thought 1 had the worst (least good) story or the trilogy, but it's the most consistent. 2 and 3 have high highs and low lows.

>I understand preferences, but I also think it has to do with immaturity on your end.
I literally said I enjoy other games with female protagonists, there’s just something off with this one specifically. It gives off the vibe that it’s being made for women.
We’ll just have to wait and see, but I think I’ll be proven right that people who enjoyed Xenoblade 1 and 2 won’t like this game because it isn’t being made for them.

2 is my favorite, even though it has problems that are more severe and obvious and front-loaded than the other games. And I think what pushes it for me really is the story and characters, they end up being really special.

I don't believe any of this discourse whining about Genesis having a female protagonist. Nobody has ever cared about this for JRPGs. And then all of a sudden this trailer comes out and I'm supposed to believe there's a contingent of faggots on /v/ who totally play JRPGs (for real bro trust me), constantly whining about lack of "representation" like a twittertranny with a onions IV drip.

It's like they just want to look a man's arse the whole game. I could understand complaints if it was an ugly female protag designed by western trannies and Karens but it's a pretty cute anime elf protag designed by Japs. The people complaining genuinely sound like close faggots.

2 has the lowest lows and highest highs of the series. I think the final 3 chapters are the best ending to any game ever.
>>
>>741465203
They can't end the series with a terrible game so we need at least one more after 3.
>>
>>741496545
>2 has the lowest lows
That's 3.
>>
>>741496575
Does it count as a low if it never rises particular high in the first place?

That scene is very overrated IMO. If it wasn't broken up by that minor segment of "gameplay" (which is just walking and knocking on prison bars) then it would actually beat MGS4 for the record of longest cutscene in a video game.

Because we on 4chan ALL have the same opinion. We ALL hate XC3. We think it's the worst game Nintendo has ever published besides TOTK and BOTW.
>woke DEI
>boring, literally fell asleep in the first ten minutes

It's like they were begging for this game to fail. Why didn't they come to us before coming out with this hot trash? We're the reason why XC2 sold millions of copies.

And they still made the main character a fucking foid. Why couldn't they read the writing on the wall after Foid of War: Laundry? We don't want this shit. Everyone agrees.

Sony kind of abandoned the whole PS1 Classics push with the PS4 in favor of the Cloud Gaming fad. If it wasn't already on there, there was a low chance of it ever being there. And Square tends to treat Xenogears like a red-headed stepchild for obvious reasons, so they weren't fast-tracking that.

This is true with even Zelda games. I got BoTW for my Cousin when he was 11. Then TotK came out which was basically same thing and he was 17.
His only knowledge of Zelda is BotW and BotW2. He was a toddler when Skyward Sword first came out so he doesn't even know Zeldas before BotW.
So he went normie instead and is focused on college now (which is good lol)..

2 is way better especially if you're not a Xeno tourist and actually played the older games and not just xenoblade 1

What is this franchise sticking with?
>>
>>741477335
They released two original xeno games in the switch 1, 2 earlier on and 3 towards the end, they can do the same again since we're getting genesis relatively early so the next one can be X2, and the switch had some ports/remasters with 1 and X so they could do the same with xenogears and xenosaga
>>
>>741498269
So, square enix dropped funding for xenogears 2 and all non-essential sidegames to the final fantasy series to focus on creating a film division for an upcoming final fantasy 7 movie and more films in the future, and then they got picked up by namco but eventually dropped them following the merger with bandai because their game wasnt a pathway to marketable childrens toys, but all along this nintendo executive Shinji Hatano who was previously the director of the licensing division had been watching their careers for years while he was working on licensing with Square and later Namco, and sent them a letter basically saying "please dont be discouraged and keep making games with your amazing vision" and monolith decided that they wanted to work for him and asked to become a subsidy of nintendo, and then nintendo challenged them with making something completely unlike anything they had previously done on completely unfamiliar hardware in the space of a year and a half with limited staff, and they made Soma Bringer and it worked, and now they only make Nintendo games.

Someone explain why the 2 worlds merge after the end of 3 (as seen in the end of future redeemed) when Origin was just supposed to recreate the 2 worlds not merge them. This is a massive plothole.

because the people just spent a millennia in the imaginary domain getting each other teen pregnant and there's generations of theoretical people origin had to account for. because those same people just got over humanity's collective woman moment and the data feedback into origin changed the collective unconsciousness's answer from survive to live and the only way the theoretical people get to live is if the dimensions merge back into the original earth.

I haven't gotten to the big reveal about what's going on with the High Entia, but it's pretty obvious where they're going with it. All I know is, their ancestors had better have a DAMN good reason for not passing down why Zanza was imprisoned or why they're trying to crossbreed with Homs to the point that everyone just forgot.

I wouldn't say its bad but it has really boring characters the story was a let down and the gameplay is a step back from 2

For which game?
1: I like playing as Riki, Melia and Dunban
2: I like playing as Zeke with a greataxe, Pandoria and a lance for topple-launch-smash combos
3: I like playing as Eunie with a mix of her base class and Miyabi's, or Full Metal Jaguar
X: Photon saber melee combo all day every day.

Yeah, the way X's story got resolved, we don't really learn anything new about Mira. All the new lore is about humanity and the universe in general, and they end up just getting out of Mira and its universe by the ending. So, they will never deal with any of that again. It's why some people are disappointed by the ending.
