SheepKilla 473 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Which one would you get? Am leaning heavily toward Xenoblade 2. Never played the first one. Just looks gorgeous graphically and the story looks cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I mean I could, but really you wouldn’t get it without playing an exploring the world yourself. if you’re on the fence, create a GameFly account and get it for a month for free.

No, because it's a great game; and in the essence of explaining why we found it enjoyable is a personal experience. Case in point, I have zero interest in JRPG's - in fact I've only ever played MGS, RE, and Killer7 from the Japanese developers the rest can.... well --> That being said, when JonB says he's 40 hours into Dragon's Quest 11, and I look it up and think: "that game?" - from Japan; my interest piques. If you don't get that, then drop your colour, log out and go find a hobby like wood working, or craft beer. As for why BotW is awesome, it has a living, breathing world that you get completely consumed into and only want to explore; you feel the need to explore the next place, take the next mission, grab the next best gear, it allows you to become all consumed and come out the otherside and this is from someone who only played a few hours in the game. I don't have the time to get the game (or the console) at this time, but holy shit; after September I have a PS4 and the Switch on my wishlist and about 30 games to play to immerse myself into their world.

In those 5 paragraphs, you never gave one specific detail about the game. If you ask me why I like GTA 3 (which I just recently finished again), I would tell you about missions I completed. Car rides I had. Scenarios that happened ("that guy flipped me over in his car and then the bomb exploded!!!"). Don't get me wrong, I'll also still play this. But when the price drops. Xenoblade looks incredible in videos and reviews. Here's hoping it lives up to my expectations. Very excited to play it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tears of the Cows 1,207 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 It’s true tho. The best part of BOTW is exploration and I have no idea how you will explore so it’s hard to give examples other than there is something interesting very often Quote Link to post Share on other sites
