After reading multiple reviews I feel compelled to share my experience with xbc3.
New to Xenoblade but After trailers I certainly was not going to miss my chance to try this jrpg.
Disclaimer: I believed this game was a online multiplayer co op experience.
It is not. I did not let disappointment keep me down.
40 hours later and I have this to say, XBC3 manages to mix turn based and action mechanics in one. The equipment management is not as well done as say Final Fantasy but there is plenty to oversee even if its not as detail specific as one may wish, the story is hit or miss, some will love it some will loathe it. Its an emotionally toned games focusing on the repercussions of ones actions in a over view. The music is phenomenal exploration and graphics are really good on switch you can loose a few hours indulging in the games open world Not playing the first two I feel at a disadvantage rating the title but xbc3 is a solid game with a 60 hour completion time, I think its worth a try.
story isn't perfect but the game is a lot of fun and some very cool cut scenes. Music is superb.
