This is essentially the culmination to Xenoblade and Xeno as a whole, It really does feel like the story Takahashi has been trying to put into words since the creation of Xenogears; No longer held back by time restraints and with an ever-growing community to help support the games.

But going back to Xenoblade 3, I'm honestly surprised how much of an improvement the gameplay was in comparison to previous Xenoblade games while running quite smoothly. It's has a lot of detail put into it too, with side quests that flesh out the world extremely well and seamless transitions from cutscenes to gameplay. Fantastic visuals and music as well, sets the tone of the game wonderfully in addition to being the most fun I've had exploring a Xenoblade game.

The story itself is flawless too, and my personal favorite of the Xeno games. There was never a dull moment with main cast either, their group/partner dynamics built up throughout the story works so well and it's also a very relatable cast at that. Each and every character is masterfully tied into the game's main theme with individual arcs to support that statement.

This game was honestly a dream come true, a game 5 years in development and it shows how much work MonolithSoft put into making this game. Music, gameplay, characters, and themes that call back to previous Xeno games while also being unique enough to count as it's own individual game. I will definitely try to put together more of my thoughts on this game in a more cohesive way in the future, but for now this is one of the best games I've ever played and something I will never forget.
