I like narrative driven games but I like the old sandbox every now and then. I try to keep a open mind about all games and look at it through a critical lens but not lose sight of what is good about it. I also think intention of a game matters. You can’t hate Fallout because it’s no Hi-Fi Rush

PORT THIS PLEASE
Went into this game ready to have a laugh of how bad it was. Finished the game with an awful taste in my mouth. I don’t want to say anymore, as a big RE fan, it pains me to talk about this game and 6
A WARM HUG
Shulk in smash bros. I’m like, “ok cool. a man who can see the future and tells his attacks in an extremely British voice, that’s nice.” Pyra and Mythra get added to smash. I’m like, “ok cool. Two anime wifus as one person, that’s cool. I want to learn more about them.” I start watching a walkthrough of the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 because I didn’t have $60 for the game. I start talking about how I’m interested in the game and my friend buys me Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition for the Nintendo Switch for my birthday and I drop the walkthrough. I start playing the game, I’m like, “ok cool. I auto attack and choose special arts and abilities when I’m in position. I don’t think I like this.” I drop the game. 2 Years later, I pick the game back up again and totally ate it up. Folks, this game was so good, I can not fathom how much I liked this game.
Let me get into it.
The combat is great. I originally put the game down because I was avoiding all the enemies because I didn’t want to waste time. I wasn’t leveling up and when I went to fight my first “boss” I got rocked. I didn’t like it. All I wanted to do was enjoy a story, not fight some machines. When I came back to it, I switched on casual mode and had a blast. It was smooth and fluid, fun and satisfying. I was a master at it, I no one could touch me. The whole “break, topple, and daze” system is really the bread and butter of the combat system. The UI is presided in a very clear and concise way for satisfying play and I was never really confused on what to do or where to go. The only couple of gripes I had with the battle system is that some enemies and bosses were immune to the “break, topple and daze” thing. Don’t do that, it was just annoying, not changing. And the other was that sometimes I would inflict break on a boss, and my other party members didn’t get the memo. The party member UI is a little bit stupid but that’s AOK!
Story (no spoilers)
I cannot believe this game. How can we have the most touching scene in a video with the stupidest British voices ever and it still work? How? All jokes aside, this game warmed my heart is much and I have no question about it. One of the reasons I love “The World Ends With You” so much is because it had hard religious undertones and I’m a sucker for that. So it’s no surprise when they start throwing around words like Apocrypha and gods, I was all in. Every character motivation felt real and genuine and I loved every character. The game also plays on your expectations a bit but throws you for a loop. The finale of this game was standing ovation, 10/10 blown away. You all know what I’m talking about, but the narrative chops that are introduced in the final 10 minutes of the game is wild. The game paced so expertly and perfectly, I just want to give this game a warm hug. That’s what this game is, a warm hug. When the final song played, I actually got emotional. I have never been prouder in a cast of characters than this game. 👏 👏 👏
