SWI Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (+ Torna: The Golden Country)

Benutzer, welche sich diesen Thread anschauen:

Mir hat X auf der WiiU ziemlich viel Laune bereitet, entgegen vielen anderen Meinungen und Eindrücken. Habs nur nicht durchgespielt, weil ich aufleveln müsste ohne Ende für die letzte Welt und nicht so recht check wie ich das mache.
Xenoblade 2 hab ich bisher kaum auf dem Schirm. Tue mich etwas schwer mit dem Charakterdesign. Bin aber sehr auf die ersten Eindrücke gespannt. Vielleicht muss ich den Wunschzettel ans Christkind doch noch umschreiben. 2 1/2 Wochen Urlaub würden eigentlich bestens dazu passen (obwohl ich so viel andere Dinge spielen müsste) :)
 
Amazon hat verschickt. :hurra:

Meins steht noch auf "wird heute versendet". Wenn es morgen nicht ankommt, hole ich mir es am Nachmittag im nahegeliegenen Shop und das Ding geht am Montag wieder zurück zu Amazon.

Das ist jetzt mal wieder seit langem ein Test-Release-Kauf bei Amazon, ob sie mittlerweile Day1 Lieferungen auf die Reihe bekommen. Bin gespannt.
 
Gerade die Versandbestätigung von Amazon erhalten. Hat heute morgen das Logistikzentrum verlassen. Ankunft steht auf morgen aber wurde mit der Post verschickt, ergo es kommt wirklich morgen an oder erst am Montag.
 
@Trayal

Mit Day 1 Lieferungen hatte ich in der letzten Zeit keine Schwierigkeiten bei Amazon. Die kamen alle pünktlich.

Gerade die Versandbestätigung von DHL erhalten. :)

Als Österreicher habe ich noch nie ein Day1 Game von Amazon erhalten.

Selten kommt ein Prime Paket, welches am Vortag verschickt wurde, auch am nächsten Tag an. In der Regel benötigt es zwei Tage bei mir, außer es wird mit DHL geliefert, die packen das tatsächlich und stellen als einzige auch am Samstag zu. Meiste Zeit verschickt Amazon aber mit der Post bei mir, wie auch dieses Mal. Die Post wäre zwar grundsätzlich pfeilschnell, allerdings nur wenn per Post Premium verschickt wird, wie das zB ein Gamesonly oder Gameware macht. Ist wie gesagt wieder nur mal ein Versuch aber große Hoffnung habe ich nicht, da erst heute und via Post verschickt wurde :D

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a delightful and fantastic JRPG experience. A long story full of adventure, character, charm, and whimsy will keep you playing for dozens of hours without breaking a sweat.

Cerealkillerz - Gabriel Bogdan - German - 8.5 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is besides some tedious mechanics and an unnecessarily long introduction a game that shouldn't be missing in any Nintendo Switch Collection. You'll be entertained for at least more than 40-50 hours of Main Quests and even after that the game still manages to keep you playing with plenty of side activities and hidden areas.

CGMagazine - Derek Heemsbergen - No Verdict
Is it the dream sequel we've been waiting for? My gut says that while it's an excellent RPG in its own right, it's going to fall just shy of measuring up to Shulk's magnum opus.

Critical Hit - Umar Bastra - 9 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 suffers from some technical issues and takes a really long time to kick it into high gear, but when it does, it manages to become a sublime RPG, standing toe to toe with the behemoths of the genre.

Destructoid - Chris Carter - 8 / 10.0
To the delight of many, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is less X and more traditional Xenoblade. Although they all have a special place in my library, I appreciate the return to what brought Monolith Soft back into the public eye after a series of portable games.

Digitally Downloaded - Matt Sainsbury - 4 / 5 stars
I enjoyed my time with Xenoblade Chronicles 2 a great deal, but it saddens me that I only enjoyed it a great deal. I honestly can't believe that a studio of Monolith's size and prestige would somehow miss that its narrative is rife with tonal inconsistencies, and leave me wondering whether I was playing something serious.

DualShockers - Azario Lopez - 9.5 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is one of those RPGs that I didn't want to end. Luckily, there is enough post-game content to satisfy players looking to sink 100's of hours into more adventures with Rex and the party. However, I can't seem to shake the feeling that I was left with as the end credits rolled. I feel like Xenoblade Chronicles 2 showed me what it's like to go on a real adventure and it happens to be one that I don't think I will ever forget.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 gets bolder in every direction, with a colorful character design backed by a caricatural tone to mask the gravity of the purpose underneath, a denser world deployed vertically, that literally breathes life through atmospheric compositions and folklore. Some ideas deserved more development, but most concepts are organically integrated, the versatile talents of the Blades sharpening the whole gameplay. A way to cut deeper into this huge adventure enriched by the variety and random nature of such symbiotic support creations, while its slight impression of d'j' vu only comes from the essential elements scavenged to forge the saga's most refined iteration. Nothing disappears, everything transforms indeed.

GamesBeat - Mike Minotti - 82 / 100
It's not a technical masterpiece, but Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a deep and fulfilling JRPG. It's a great game to show just how well this genre works with Nintendo's newest system.

GameSpot - Peter Brown - 7 / 10
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a massive and dense game littered with small issues that hold it back from greatness.

Gaming Nexus - Matt Mirkovich - 8.8 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a great game to finish off the Switch's stellar first year, and offers a massive adventure that will scratch the itch felt by both MMO and JRPG fans.

GamingTrend - Noah McGuire - 85 / 100
While it's definitely got its flaws, and it doesn't quite reach the same exceptional standards as its predecessor, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is definitely worth playing. With robust, customizable combat, fun characters and an interesting story, and huge environments to explore, it's one of the best games on the Switch and an excellent RPG.

Hobby Consolas - David Martinez - Spanish - 89 / 100
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the latest great exclusive for Nintendo Switch; a huge, deep Japanese RPG, which sometimes feels "too generic". We love the titan made world and its complex battle system, but sometimes we lose track of the main story.

IGN - Leif Johnson - 8.5 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a standout RPG that manages to keep its story, combat, and exploration interesting over the course of at least 70 hours of adventure through an impressively varied and rich world. Getting from place to place can be confusing, but outside of that and a multi-hour progression roadblock near the end this is an excellent game full of tough, memorable battles and a positive message.

MMORPG.com - William Murphy - 8.5 / 10.0
We've had Breath of the Wild, we got Skyrim, and Disgaea 5, but for many JRPG fans, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 will be the first really exciting release on the Switch. And I'm here to say that it's been worth the wait for the follow up to the Wii's original classic.

Nintendo Life - Thomas Whitehead - 9 / 10
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 on the Switch won't disappoint series fans, especially those that love the Wii original (or even experienced it on New 3DS). It's a new cast and world, with some fresh mechanics and ideas, but much is still familiar. The story has high points, the world and its varied Titan lands is intriguing, and it draws you in for many dozens of hours.It's Monolith Soft doing what it does best, albeit without shaking off the occasional flaws of the series. It's ultimately an important part of an incredible launch year for the Switch - a reminder that while system concepts change some things are constant. This is another Xenoblade gem, and a must-have for the most dedicated of adventurers.

NintendoWorldReport - John Rairdin - 9.5 / 10.0
It sets a precedent for JRPGs on the Switch that I doubt will be topped, unless of course Monolith Soft somehow manages to pump out a Xenoblade Chronicles X 2 before the end of the generation.

Polygon - Jeremy Parish - No Verdict
It feels like both a relic out of time and a welcome glimpse of handheld gaming's future. For all its sloppiness, Xenoblade 2's combination of classic RPG concepts and flexible on-the-go play make for one of the most engrossing takes on the genre I've encountered since Dragon Quest 9, which possessed a similar appeal.

RPG Site - Josh Torres - 9 / 10
An excellent tale accompanied by incredible cutscenes, a charming cast, a thrilling battle system, and an exceptional soundtrack make this a worthy successor to the first Xenoblade Chronicles.

SA Gamer - Garth Holden - 8.5 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a return to the heights of Xenoblade Chronicles after a dip with X. Get ready for a long adventure filled with amazing sights and revelations.

Stevivor - Steve Wright - 6.5 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 isn't a bad game by any means, but it's one that only die-hard JRPG fans will love.

TheSixthAxis - Dominic Leighton - 9 / 10
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a phenomenal RPG. It's a truly incredible piece of work that builds and expands on the series' staples, while turning into a unique and heartfelt adventure all of its own.

USgamer - Nadia Oxford - 4.5 / 5 stars
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 applies an energetic signature and wax seal to a wonderful year for the Nintendo Switch, and for JRPGs in general. Between the amount of time it takes to get used to the game and getting through everything it has to offer, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a worthy investment for series fans and newcomers.

Wccftech - Dave Aubrey - 8.8 / 10.0
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is an essential JRPG for fans of the genre. If you own a Switch and have enjoyed JRPGs in the past, then you should get it, absolutely. In a year which had games like Tales of Berseria and Persona 5, it just might be the best JRPG of 2017, and that's saying something.

We Got This Covered - Jon Hueber - 4 / 5 stars
With Xenoblade Chronicles 2, the Nintendo Switch wraps up its first year with one of the biggest games in recent memory; JRPG fans have yet another epic game to enjoy before we head into 2018.

Schade, dann bleibt es bei nur drei 90plus-Titeln bei Nintendo dieses Jahr, während Sony und Microsoft keinen einzigen haben. :ulgy:

Jetzt komme ich langsam aber sicher auch nicht mehr an einer Switch vorbei. Xenoblade Chronicles gehört neben Trails zu meinen Lieblings-JRPGs.
