Xenoblade: Chronicles Thread of Die in a Fire, NOA

[Great Rumbler]

I'm about 8 and a half hours in now and I'm totally loving Xenoblade. Sure, some of the story parts kind of drag on a bit, and pretend like the "big reveal", or at least one of them, isn't totally obvious, but the story's not all bad and certainly not enough to take away from the great world that's presented here, the sheer sense of scale, and how much fun it is to explore. Combat's pretty cool too, especially when it starts throwing out a whole bunch of new stuff and you start to realize how much depth and strategy there is to it.

I haven't been this attached to a JRPG since the PS1 days.
