learn to embrace and love the cringe y'all, cause behind it is something incredible. perfect? no. incredible? yes.

it takes something special to make you persevere through the most inane gameplay and design flaws (to clarify: i don't mean the combat, i mean the menuing, merc missions and field skills) and feel like you came out on top, and this game is really it. sure, there are tons of little things i would have loved to see fixed, and maybe if they were, people would not feel so encouraged to sh*t on this experience... but the fact that this game put itself out there as it is, and was already so good, and so widely accepted, and so much better than the first Xenoblade (dead serious.)... it is something worth celebrating
