Just so you know, this is review is coming from someone who played XC2 first. So going in I already had pretty large expectations from what the community has said. And you know what? It lived up to every single one of them for me. The story was absolutely better than XC2's, with so many twists and turns that always got me to keep playing to find out what happened next. The characters are amazing too, with some of my favorites being Reyn, Alvis, Melia, and Egil. Riki is so much better than Tora it's not even funny. Not only that, but it also has an amazing soundtrack. Guar Plains, A Tragic Decision, Engage the Enemy, You Will Know Our Names, Riki's theme, Beyond the Sky, Mechanical Rhythm, An Obstacle in Our Path, and many others are absolutely amazing. Out of the games I've played, I think the Xenoblade OSTs usually tower above the rest. The one gripe I have is that sometimes the gameplay can get extremely repetitive. A good amount of the game is spent topple locking enemies, and struggling for ages to kill opponents that are immune to topple and break. However, it was also pretty fun at times and it was hilarious how much you could cheese some fights. This game gets a Better than Wii Play out of 10
This is probably my least favorite smash game. The gameplay is okay, but the engine doesn't feel nearly as fun as Melee or Ultimate's. The visuals feel super generic too, and a lot of the renders feel lifeless compared to the other games. I do like the game a bit, and it's pretty fun with mods. But compared to the other games I feel like it'll be forgotten pretty easily
