Are they good?
>>12504907No Xeno game is good.
>>12504907No. I played the 1st one at release. I wanted to like it because I loved Xenogears, but it's just complete shit. Everything feels designed to waste your time. The story isn't interesting, battles take so long, and none of the characters are interesting besides kas kas or w/e the fuck the main chars name is, been so many years.I don't know how I ever beat the first one because I tried to replay it a few years back and thought it was the most boring shit ever and tapped out after two hours. I never played 2 or 3 but i imagine it's more of the same.
>>125049071 is okay, 2... exists, 3 is excellent.
>>12504907they are all good
>>12504907The first one is really boring and slow, the second is fucking absymal and the third isn't worth wading through the others to get there. On the plus side, they're not that long. You can clear the entire trilogy in the time it'd take to beat many SMT games.
>>12504907Pretty fucking long winded from I remember. I'll never forget finding 3 in a literal dumpster, paid $.25 for it.Kos mos looks cool I guess. Jrpg in space, philosophy and robots.
>>12505091Basically this
>>12504940>Everything feels designed to waste your time. That's a core design principle for all Monolithsoft games (and games they made before being called Monolith)
>>12505109Huh? Most smt games are like 40-60 hours. Hltb says just xenosaga 1 is 40 hours.
>>12505763I think it has an actual 1 hour cutscene or some shit. I thought people were exaggerating at first.
>>12505763My recent SMTV: Vengeance CoV playthrough took 105 hours and I didn't even do everything. 40 hours is about right for Xenosaga 1 (8 hours of which is boring cutscenes so you could bring that way down), but 2 is half that and 3 sits somewhere in the middle. They don't come to 100 hours total and I've spent more than that on several SMT games (including spin-offs like Persona, not just mainline). Several Dragon Quest ones too.
>>12504907How can a double layer gaem not be good?
>>12505787The Guy Game and 50 Cent: Bulletproof were also dual-layer
>>12504907The first one gets really good at the end. Everything up until that is disjointed cutscenes. Hard to get into.The second one has a tedious battle system but actually is a lot better than the first one.The third one is when they figured out how to make a well balanced game.
Xeno a shit
>>12504907like 1 and 3, 2 is fucked to play but at least albedo is still cool
>>125049403 is unfathomably soulful.
>>12504907It's a JRPG. They are all boring repetitive crap
This metaphor is on a loli, btw.
>>12506161ripped off FFX
>>12506459FFX wishes.
>>12506161wait isnt this the game with the endless amounts of walking from A to B, which a shit ton of in-between screens that have nothing in them?
>>12507326*with
