fun as hell, made me like f-zero

Mfers be like "All Nintendo has to do is release F-Zero with online!" and then they do exactly that and they whine about it on forums.

Buena historia, pobres mecánicas

Oh los horrores, LOS HORRORES DE LA GUERRA

what is takahashi cooking with that ending

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 facilmente se lleva el puesto de mi favorito de la franquicia. Agarra todo lo mejor de los anteriores 2 y expande en ello perfectamente, del sistema de combate a las pequeñas interacciones de personajes principales y secundarios en sidequests. El cast principal es fantastico, tienen muy buena quimica desde el inicio, y rapidamente se hicieron mi party favorito de la saga. Las personalidades de todos combinan bien, y cada personaje tiene oportunidad de brillar. En cuanto a la historia, sin entrar en spoilers, es una locura. Usualmente no soy de llorar con juegos, y sin embargo este me dejo como un mar de lagrimas en varios momentos. Tiene sus detalles, como cualquier juego, pero son minusculos en comparación a todo lo que hace bien. Es una experiencia hermosa que recomiendo a cualquiera que disfrute de los jrpgs, y mas aun si le gustó alguno de los anteriores 2.

My opinions here will change overtime, as all Xenoblade games have for me. But for now, this is what I think.

The story is almost perfect, it has the best Xenoblade cast. Noah and Mio really are highlights of this game, those two are indisputably my favorite duo in gaming perhaps. Noahs character in relation to the best villain with the game really showed how Noah can act under horrible circumstances. It's not afraid to shy away from showing us a flawed protagonist. However, I have one huge issue with this plot, I dont like how easily death is trivialised. A lot of characters end up being brought back to life or having fake deaths. To me, this can take away from the stakes of the plot at times. Like during Chapter 6's best cutscene, while it was upsetting to see who died, I knew deep down they would pull something to avoid the jaws of death yet again like most important characters in this game. Some characters are killed off, but not the super important ones. This is in stark contrast to Xenoblade 2 where it wasn't afraid to kill off super important characters to show how dire things can get. I also think after Chapter 6 the game loses a lot of it's luster until the end. But despite these issues, I still think this plot is incredible due to the main cast and world building.

The battle system is interesting. I really like it, the addition of classes over blades simplifies the blade system but it's not too simplified like Xenoblade 1. Chain attacks are easy to spam out and Ouroboros are good to use in a pinch. I really enjoyed the battle system, it was getting a bit tiring during the final dungeon but overall I think it was fantastic. The music is amazing, too bad I cant hear it over the characters screaming out all their attack moves in battle lol.

Final thoughts: An amazing JRPG with the highest peaks, but can feel inconsistent at times. A must play in my books.

FIFA with soul but it’s still FIFA
