I've been playing RPGs since the 90s. I have never in my life seen a game made by a company that creates gold yet this one is worse than shit dipped in more shit and then farted on for good measure. There's a lot good but wtf. Ormus stronghold almost made me quit. Then there's more cool shit, then 100 annoying side quests that could take hours. Then I slog through the next part and what do I see? Oh cool, labrynthos. More puzzles that don't even make sense plus battles you can't get away from in between. Wtf was wrong with these retards? All the stupid shit sucked every ounce of fun from it, the characters look and sound like bizarro world meth versions, and every time I try and force myself through these last few parts I just wanna throw a baby into a wall. At this point is it even worth the transfer data or should I just move on to 3 and watch the rest on YouTube?
>>3845126It has been a long time since I played it, but I don't recall Xenosaga 2 having any redeeming qualities outside of a few interesting cutscenes. Even the majority of the storyline consisted of flashbacks rather than anything that moved the plot forward.Xenosaga 3 was a nice return to form, though, and a good attempt at hastily bringing the series to a conclusion.
>>3845126Just use cheats like everyone else. The game is incredibly short when you ignore the side quests. 3 improved everything and only negative thing I can say about 3 was it tends to drag on in the middle.
XS2 is the absolute best and worst of the series. It goes from absolute kino to beyond garbage-tier and never even tries to be in-between.3 is a much better game as a whole and arguably one of Takahashi's best games period.
>>3845126I never bought or played Xenosaga 3 because of 1 and 2. Still have zero interest in the series or anything related to it to this day. You kinda have to be a tasteless weeb to get into these games, I think.
>>3845126If you're past the Ormus stronghold, you might as well finish it, you've done the absolute worst dungeon in the series as well as about 3/4ths of the whole game. I don't remember what the transfer reward was, but if you really hate it you can get away with that.
I remember being really hyped and deep into the series as it was coming out. even 2. I'd really have to do a whole series replay at some point I think, too few sci fi rpgs out there.

Has anyone played the DS version?
>>3845126>beating a dead horse from 20 fucking years agoLike wow, how bold of you anon.
>>3845126Yeah the only XS games worth playing are 1 and 3, trust me OP just watch the story on YT and then go to 3.
