Loved her too. Loved them all! How far are you? I'm real excited for the expansion and that it's getting a physical release, $40 I think.
I bet you're having a smooth experience with it because the game got a ton of patches. It wasn't too bad at launch though, but I'm kind of curious how different it is now with all the updates. I think they added New Game+, so I can probably replay it someday with that.
I think for me overall I like the main plot of Xenoblade 1 more, but the Xenoblade 2 cast is one of the best most likeable groups of JRPG characters I've ever seen. I also think it's hilarious Monolith Soft cooked this game up in like a year or two at most... and for me personally it's 10x better than FFXV. Which we all know took a damn decade. I'm glad Monolith Soft are doing well under Nintendo now, I can probably count on them for some good JRPG experiences from here on. I've loved all the Xeno's, though I still haven't played Xenoblade X. I never ever hear anyone talk about the story or characters from that one which is disappointing, sounds more Western open world influenced too which is a minus to me. And the anime vocals OST sounds pretty weird. I own it but just have a bad feeling it'll be the first Xeno I don't like much.
I just wish or hope Tetsuya Takahashi gets back to the more complex and darker stories like Xenogears/Xenosaga someday. But I still love the Xenoblade's.
Did you get around to Nier Automata?
