welcome to watchmojo.com and today we
will be exploring everything you need to
know about xenoblade chronicles taled is
the first true evolution of japanese
role-playing games this title redefines
everything that you would expect from
the genre overhauling it and modernizing
it while keeping the basic elements that
originally made it popular developed by
monolith software and published by
nintendo xenoblade chronicles is
centered on the journey of an orphaned
young hero named shulk
who is destined to save the world to
accomplish this he must seek out
companions and the Minato an ancient
weapon that allows its user to see the
future thankfully the story does not
become predictable and provides gamers
with an unusually deep tale that lasts
up to 50 hours without ever feeling like
much filler has been added perhaps the
Wii game with the highest environmental
detail to date Xenoblade Chronicles
takes place within two connected worlds
remarkably these happen to be the
dormant bodies of a pair of Titan sized
robots that were once locked in an
eternal battle specifically your
characters home is the robot turned
planet by Onis which has come to be
colonized by humans long ago after
turning into a fertile biosphere the
opposing world mechonis has become home
to evil robots that have begun
decimating human colonies including the
residents of your home colony 9 this RPG
stands out for its redefined combat
system that merges the best of eastern
and western design basically it excludes
random battles and combat unfolds as a
hybrid of real-time and command based
strategy equal parts fighting an
exploration game you control one
character in your three-person party and
wield special moves called talents your
party can work together to gain the
upper hand and unleash special chain
attacks for example when you knock a
monster off balance a teammate will
automatically jump in to help finish the
job in return you can guide your allies
to targets help them tackle opponents
and even cut and run and instruct
everyone to flee the battle if it turns
sour between battles you explore the
gorgeous environments at your leisure
this is a nonlinear narrative filled
with side quests everywhere you go you
will find something to do discover new
items and find enemies that can be
fought or ignored everything you do
earns you experience points that are
used to strengthen your team of heroes
further reducing frustration and fatigue
is the games fast travel system and use
of automatic saves then xenoblade
chronicles death simply causes you to
reappear at the last landmark you pass
with all of your item stats and health
restored to their previous levels of
course the real star of this game is the
monado blade it plays a key role in both
the combat and the story when engaged in
combat it allows you to see the enemy
attacks before they happen this is done
through the screen change in color and
the action unfolding in slow motion as a
vision you then have time to react and
change the future before it happens
don’t let this game’s colorful look fool
you
Xenoblade Chronicles is filled with
drama violence and death while it will
certainly thrill gamers of all walks it
can also be said that it suffers from
poor english lip syncs count me in we’ve
gotta get out of here or we can stay and
fight and the knowledge that it would
have looked better on a more advanced
console these aspects aside it will draw
you in with its astounding tale high
quality of game design our long-lost
battles
massive story and excellently written
characters that become your family as
this captivating adventure unfolds It
was as if I could see into the future
is this another power of the Minato
