IIRC I finished Xenoblade Chronicles 2 around the 100-hour mark. I killed the boss, did some perfunctory extra exploration and that was it. There was a lot I didn’t like that about that game (and a lot I did), but the biggest was having the map filled in for me already so there were no […]
First 13 hours of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 – I like it but I want to explore more
