I don't really know how to rate this because 90% of the game is pretty good, but the final 10% is so horrendously awful that it basically ruined the entire experience of the series for me. Let's go with a 3/10 just out of respect for those good times. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

To put it charitably, this game's plot is extremely goofy. Even by Xenosaga standards it barely makes sense, it ties up hanging plot threads in very uninteresting ways (while still ignoring a lot of them), and a lot of the new stuff it introduces is just. Completely stupid. It also has a lot of character anti-development, with Shion just being completely irredeemable as the most obvious example. I agree with Leon that the ending is awful. 3/10, definitely the trilogy's low point story-wise. --- Congrats to BKSheikah, who knows more about years than anyone else. ... Copied to Clipboard!

9.5 / 10 Look back on it fondly, ending and rushed Disc 2, warts and all. Love it and felt very satisfied and would recommend it and the trilogy to everybody. Great character moments and story wraps up well enough for a hexalogy cut in half. ... Copied to Clipboard!

All of the xs games had inconsistent pacing, and the bad parts of xs3 were almost as bad as the worst of xs2. The tutorial is especially awful. They also went the route of "fill in the important plot with long encyclopedia entries in-game" which is never great. All that said, i think the highs of the story are still pretty high, and given what they had to work with they could have done a lot worse! 8/10 --- ~Peaf~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

6.5/10 -1 for -2 for everything involving Shion that is so batshit dumb, only Star Ocean 3 tops it for all time stupid. Now that I think of it some more, -.5 points for being forced to resolve EVERY plot thread in about one dungeons worth of a boss rush because "final game of a trilogy." They did a way better job of trying to give everyone stuff to do (cause they had way more game time to actually work with), but fucking hell. Margulis and Pellegri get practically shit on for fuck all they got to do in the first two games. NOPE!
