No. It's built on the Xenoblade chronicles 3ds engine.

Not saying that's an excuse, but it is what it is.

And this is what I was saying before. A lot of recent JRPGs are built with handhelds/mobile in mind so you can see/feel that when playing.

shyts just don't feel/look as polished/complete as other console releases.
Where did you see that? Cause it's wrong

This quote is from the executive director of the game himself

The ease or speed of developing Xenoblade Chronicles 2 stems a lot from our having already created this architecture with Xenoblade Chronicles X. The game portion of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is kind of overlaid on top of that fundamental architecture. I think that made the biggest contribution to why development went so fast. And in terms of Switch versus Wii U, another point is that we’ve only had to deal with one screen, so that also has made development a little bit easier.

And so to add to that, both at Nintendo and at Monolith, we wanted to have a major large-scale roleplaying game early in the Switch’s lifecycle. We thought about how we might accomplish that, and we wanted to do the same thing with the Wii U. But the development for Xenoblade Chronicles X was a little bit difficult, and that’s why it ended up being released a little bit later in the Wii U’s cycle. So we had a postmortem and tried to think ‘How can we deliver this at an earlier stage in the console’s lifecycle?’
Why Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Has A Tetsuya Nomura Character

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D was a downgraded version of the original Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii. Why the hell would they use that engine. The custom engine they built for Xenoblade Chronicles X was specifically made for HD games, that's why it's been used here.

And I agree it's unpolished. That's why I said it was rushed

My bad. That's what I thought I read somewhere.

Its a meaty jrpg on the switch and its a xeno game.

Most people play games on the switch for the gameplay and portability

unlike the ps4 and xbx1 graphics dont matter.


The game does look like a ps2 game tho, rendered background and all. But its real good once you get a couple hours in.

Graphics aren't important in terms of sheer power but presentation certainly matters.
The game looks muddy as shyt in portable mode. That's bad and needs to be fixed. It doesn't look like a PS2 game, it looks like I'm playing a Switch game on a 1990 Zenith CRT. The bright and colorful art style makes it worse cause everything looks so mutes and dull in handheld

BOTW GOTY:umad:
You are saying that because of how good it looks right? Go check the botw thread and that will be the common theme. If you look at the negative comments about the game people are now saying it's not as good as they once thought. After the graphics stop wowing you it's up to the gameplay. Zelda usually doesn't hold up as well in that department in most gamers opinions (not mine, I love Zelda still including skyward sword which most didn't love because of the reasons I'm touching on now) so in conclusion, you are the graphics whore and :umad:

How do you know what games I've played, did you ask or in the midst of being exposed you toss out any thought that comes to mind and hope it sticks :umad:

I didn't say it was only graphics that made botw a good game, but graphics or art styles go a long way in a games popularity. Killzone says hi..

From beyond the grave :yeshrug:
