How would you have done it better with the time constraints?

>>741828346I love that I'm playing through xenogears and these threads keep popping up
>>741828346It was either this or not releasing disc 2and considering the game wouldn't have made its money back, no continuation would have been made.
>>741828346Let players at least get a few battles controlling Weltall-Id, and not just "We have Weltall-Id at home," Weltall 2.
>>741828346Hire Hideo Kojima as director and Tetsuya Nomura as character design and scenario writer
Put most of the lore into books to read around the game and then the rest of it into lyrics of an epic final boss battle song. Use the time to develop a game.
I'd love to read a book similar to xenogears, but I can't help but feel like anyone else writing this would be way too self indulgent

>>741828346I’d make Xenogears into an Armored Core or Zone of the Enders type action game. You’d get the full story of the 2nd disc like the original release but you’d have to do NG+ cycles to get more playable content from that 2nd disc, which reveals more than what the cutscenes told and by NG+7 you’ll have the entirety of Disc 2 playable in a similar pace to Disc 1. I am very smart.
>>741828346>filenameStory is timeless, same as music and graphics
>>741828346Disc 2 contains some of the best writing ever placed in a video game. The best option isn't always limited to changing the past. Rather than regretting the past, you should hold your current self dear.
>>741830050The Raw Shark Text has some moments like this.
>>741828346The same thing that Banpresto/Winkysoft did with Super Robot Wars F, make it 2 games.
