    Hello there, my name is Gabriel and I play the character of young Noah in Xenoblade 3. It's AWESOME to see my character, to actually hear my voice and, to see the finished product! It's been an absolute privilege to be involved in this and it's VERY exciting to see everything come together in this way.

    That was my thinking as well. When I saw that it wasn't plastered to the right corner I was actually a fan of that. I used to play a lot of MMOs and I'd always adjust the bars to be somewhat close to the character since positioning is really important and you don't want your eyes wavering. Would be nice if you could adjust the UI layout for player preference though. If you're playing portable as opposed to a big screen, you can see the whole screen a lot easier.

That section is useful during chain attacks but in combat I'm able to see if I'm in a specific buff circle or status effect is happening without looking up there.

    Gaming, especially JRPGs has become a kind of family contact time for my son and I. He is, of course, the big gamer and I am along for the ride, I don’t like ALL of his games ( he kind of knows which ones to steer clear of with me), but a fair number of them I do. Xenoblade is at the top of the list, and we’ve played/ watched them all to this point. We’re about 12+ hours into this game , and I think it’s excellent. As Kim commented it is darker than Xenoblade 2 at the outset, but not oppressive. It is a more intense game from the start, and there is hope given early on. I’m looking forward to the next 150 (?) hours. It stands tall with its predecessors. Thumbs up to Monolith!

    I grew up with Xenosaga on the PS2 and loved them. I didn't get a chance to try Xenogears on PS1, but I'm sure it's great! Bringing it forward to modern days, I only played Xenoblade Chronicles X on Wii U. I enjoyed it and found most of it to be excellent. I ended up not getting the remake of Xenoblade Chronicles on Switch, nor did I played the 2nd one. So this was a bit of a leap of faith for me with buying Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I'm glad I did jump into it though! I'm enjoying all the exploring, collecting, combat, characters and conversations between characters. The story is dark and quite heavy. Enjoyable game so far!!

    The Arts menu has to be within eyesight of the character because you have to time your Arts with the connection of your auto-attacks while monitoring the recharge of your other Arts. If it was further to the right you'd have to be constantly taking your eyesight off the character to see where you're at with your Arts and vice versa, which wouldn't work with the timing needed to Art cancel.

    Very true. Personally I would have preferred the menu off-set a bit more with an indicator for when cool-downs expire like having the menu icon flash. But it's also useful to see the cool down meter build. I don't dislike it lol and it's useful enough where I don't feel annoyed that it's too close. I also place the art with the shortest name for the left-most icon so the text doesn't clutter the center of the screen as much.

    Hey you two! I'm a 41 years old gamer and your channel is my favorite now for game descriptions, mainly because of the passion, but you also stear clear of politics. Hope you'll talk about "No Place for Bravery" in September on the Switch. I love pixel art games as much as you do. Ninja Saviors : Return of the Warriors is now my favorite beat-em'up. Johnny is so confident in front of a camera now, that his energy is a major draw too. Good job.

    It's so good. I think having six characters on screen is definitely too chaotic but it fixes the only two gripes I ever had with an otherwise incredible series. The pacing is so much better and no running back and forth constantly to complete quests. Story is also next level so far. Can't get enough.

    I haven't played any of the Xenoblade Chronicles games yet. This LOOKS great. However, it still doesn't seem like a game that I could get into. I haven't seen any reviews or gameplay that changes my mind yet. I am watching a channel play through the game, though, so I am still on the "edge" of deciding to buy and try 3. I don't backtrack, though, so none of the earlier games would be played I don't think (unless I do a franchise playthrough). Thank you for the review, regardless.

    Default settings are perfect by the way. I tried messing with the targeting (classic setting) and even only targeting targets in battle and both of those limit your ability of aggroing adds to build your chain attack before fighting a unique enemy or farming enemies while building up Interlink levels in combat.
