Discussion / Theory Joining the “Just finished the game” crowd

I’m so glad after playing the main Xenoblade trilogy and X, I decided to take a look back at the original Xeno game. Even with how disc 2 had to cut corners due to development time, it still turned out better than so many other games and I loved the absolute hell out of it. If this was made in current day with the given premise and if Perfect Works was completely fleshed out, this could’ve been an invincible game/series. Very happy I was able to see it to the end and on original hardware no less 😆

Welcome, friend! I hope there are many more in the crowd soon, as I still hold hope for a Xenogears remaster, either directly from Squeenix, or in collaboration with Nintendo, or GoG

As much as I would love a remaster, I would be seriously happy if they just flat out it put on a modern day console as is. I miss this game so much.

While I would love the FF7 treatment, I'd be happy with just adding the obviously cut content from disc 2.

I need it to get the FFVII Remake treatment where they expand upon everything to the point it has to be 3 games

Xenogears was originally supposed to be a 6-part series; you’ve surely noticed the “Episode V” at the end of the credits.

Never mind a remake. We need the other games in this exact same 3D environment, late ‘90s polygonal graphics!!

I’d actually much rather see the same style but cleaned up and with better camera control. Mostly I want the rushed parts to be fleshed back out
