Board 8 > So I'm going to give Xenoblade Chronicles a second chance.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I bought a WiiU back in 2014 just because this game was so hyped on this board, played for about 6 hours and then got tired of the battle system.

But it looks like this game can go really far in the bracket so I decided to give it another chance today. Has it aged well? My first reaction was: I usually doesnt say this since I love old RPGs, but this looks really dated. Was this really what Wii games looked like compare to Ps3 and Xbox360 games?

You do know there's a heavily-enhanced remaster coming out this year, right?

Woah. I can understand if people couldn't get into Xenoblade because of how imposing the scale of it can be, but the battle is system is one of the best in RPG gaming. Weird take imo

As for the graphics, Xenoblade was always really blocky and washed out even for the Wii. It's probably because of the nature of the game's wide open environments, they had to cut down on detail to make it work. I think it's a fair sacrifice.

I think this the first time I heard about this.

To be fair it might have been me being terrible at the game. >_>

One week later and Im still terrible at this game. I'm stuck at one boss right now. For some reason Shulk (my main damage dealer obviously) just started to miss every single attack for some reason. And now on my second try the boss all of a sudden cast an OP Regen magic which heals 5000hp every time I attack it. If only there was a site on the Internet that could help me, but as far as I know no such site exists. A GAME site where you see Frequently Asked QuestionS would be really helpful right now..
