I'm just waiting for 2pm to roll around so I can devour some reviews for it :lol:

If my copy arrives tomorrow it'll be a very short spell on Animal Crossing before spending a few hours with this :wub:

Out of the 3 Xenoblade games (4 if you count the Torna DLC as a separate entity) I still think its the best one. They're all fantastic though :wub:

It's the best one from a world building/story/characters standpoint. The gameplay is pretty good, I just prefer XC2's battle system. I find it hard picking between the two games.

Plus you get more epic music.

Awesome. I loved the world/story/characters of XC2 so if this is even as good as that then I'll be pleased.

I've already set my expectations that the battle system won't quite match up but I'm hopeful it won't be too much of a step down!

Reviews are looking good! :D

I also prefer the battle system in XC2 and Torna but I wouldn't really say it's a step down in the original game.

The only thing about the battle system here is that it laid down a lot of the base systems in XC2, they are similar in a lot of aspects, but it lacks the chain attack goodness.

Yeah it is reviewing very well :D Not surprising considering how well the original and the 3DS version reviewed but still welcome.

Edit, GameXplain review confirmed Jenna Coleman came back to voice Melia for the future connected portion :datass:

I held off playing XC2 when I picked it up so I can go through this first! Reviews are looking great!

Beginning to think ordering the fancy edition wasn’t such a good idea. No movement on my order. :cry:

Good to know this unlocks midnight for digital folks. Almost forgot it was releasing tomorrow since I hadn't actually pre-downloaded it yet.
