should I buy it? (haven't played 1)


also is the game full of big boobed waifus?
Yes and yes
Not removing this until Pat Benatar is in Super Smash Bros. (Started 8/31/2010)
FantaCE Football Squad: ELIMINATED .
yes, yes

there might be a correlation, who can say
I don't play JRPGs unless there are big boobed anime babes in it
I'm like 50 hours in, great game.

As for waifu's: ARs57MQ
My favorite switch game 80 hours in and I'm only on chapter 5
Pyra is on screen basically all the time. Also her voice actress is great I love the way she sounds. She doesn't have a typical anime voice over sound she just talks like a normal person with a soothing voice.

Gameplay is fun as I really enjoy the blade mechanics. Countries are awsome to explore with huge regions and moderately diverse enemy types.

why did I hear the game was disappointing and meh when it released, but peeps are CE are loving it?

That's why I hesitated and I have 45 bucks of eshop credit
I love big boobies though and I've been looking for a meaty game on switch

I got 999 moons in Mario Odyssey and I beat every shrine (including DLC) in BoTW

People hated on it because all they saw was boobs and just assumed it was generic weeboo shit

Then they realized it's fun as shit

i didn't like the first couple of hours because of technical issues in handheld mode and some inconvenient design decisions, but i grew to like it a lot

waiting for them to patch in ng+ so i can play through it again

yo but that's a plus
was this really a case of people being triggered by hot girls?
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has some real problems and does quite a number of things worse than its predecessors. Gameplay can be more of a hit or miss than previous games. The art style could take some getting used to, and yes, there are plenty of hot girls of a variety of different types.

It's still a great game, not the best in the series in my opinion, but I'd say it's worth a look.

People got upset because of anime tropes and fanservice. If you can get over those it's a good game, and Pyra is awesome.
I loved it a lot. Put 109 hours into it before I beat it, though I still want to go back and do post-game things. For me, it's like:
Gameplay: X > 2 > 1
Story: 2 > 1 > X

Wii is where Xenoblade started. o_o There's also a 3DS port. X is only on Wii U like you mentioned, though I have my fingers crossed hard for a port.

Only Chronicles 1 & 2 are connected, X is by itself.
Also if you get the game, download the Japanese voice pack. The dub is pretty bad

Not really too much, more of a Final Fantasy situation... To an extent.

However... People who beat the first game will enjoy 2 more.

Gameplay is the shallowest of the series and story is crap. There are good things about it, but its like they bought a mobile game like fate grand order or Dokkan battle and built their game around it.
You'd better get used to it and adapt, otherwise you fail at evolution and you'll get crap from everyone and eventually go extinct.-stardust999

So true!
Haven't played a single Xenoblade game and care nothing about it, so I'm not a good judge here.
I felt like I was watching a dream I'd never wake up from...hmp. Before I knew it, the dream was all over.
It's a lot more fun than the original gameplay wise IMO though the plot is full of stereotypical PS2 era JRPG cliches which can be a big turn off

lol
Its pretty fantastic, there is just an overly loud minority who bitch and whine about everything.
It has its issues, but it's still quite good.

The DLCs pretty much fixed all the issues I had with the game. It was already the best game I played last year (actually trumped my Splatoon 2 playtime lul) and doing another playthrough, it's pretty heavenly. I can't even imagine the game before all the quality of life improvements they made after the release
