This game is a hot mess that has glaring game design and writing issues that are likely due to being rushed out for the launch of the Switch. While the game does improve upon Xenoblade 1 it has its own issues that get in the way. But I would be lying if I said I didn't find
the combat fun eventually and enjoyed quite a few character moments. Here's hoping that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will be the game I've wanted out of this series.
