Well thats just stupid...
They are two wildly different experiences. Those that say that Xenoblade is better are just fanboys who want to excessively praise something that is already great (in this case, Xenoblade).
Those that say that it is not even close are just haters that don't want to admit how good the Xenoblade games are. Probably because it is a Nintendo owned IP.
Fact is, classic FF and Xenoblade are both great RPGs, but play totally different. You will find some ...
Xenoblade 2 is a great game.
It has certainly been forgotten though...I was (and will be again if it comes out) so hyped for this game back in the day. I literally forgot this existed till I saw this article however.
Looking forward to playing this on Switch when it comes out.
This seems to be a true sequel with different combat, outside of being a turn based RPG. If social links and everything in the regular world is still intact, this game could be somethkng really special.
So hyped!
It will likely be the highest selling game in the franchise...and frankly I hope it is. I will be enjoying the game catching all that is in THIS GAME.
More and more 3rd party Switch games seem to be doing this.
Diablo 3
Wolfenstein Young Blood
God Eater 3
Fortnite
Warframe
etc
All have voice chat native to the Switch itself. This is becoming more and more common with 3rd party games. It is done exactly like the PS3 was handled, no phone app needed. While it is not as good as a proper party system, it does not affect the actual gameplay so communicating is not a problem once you are in the game.
It got a 95 on metacritic...
