I’m gonna bring some pumpkin whoopie pies, it’s almost fall after all
thinking about that time in math class when the teacher was explaining what a vector is and some girl went “omg just like the guy from despicable me!!”

I want to make a Xenoblade 3 OC, but I don’t have anyone to talk to about them. The one Xenoblade fan I’m friends with hasn’t played 3 yet and I don’t want to spoil things for him. I love yelling into the void of Tumblr, but it gets lonely here.
For fun, here’s the order I played through Xenoblade (do not do this):
-Started with X of all things because I thought it looked cool. It’s the odd one out, with a bigger focus on side content, a customizable avatar, giant robots you can control, and almost everyone has an American accent (they’re canonically from America it’s fine). Also Shulk and Fiora’s voice actors are voice options for the protagonist, neat.
-Played 1 and it’s sidestory next when it came out on Switch, very good time.
-Played 2 after that, I skipped it when it first came out because reasons and forced myself to play through it because 3 got announced. Nia, Zeke, and being blessed by the gacha gods and summoning KOS-MOS got me through 2. I still haven’t finished the DLC.
-3 and it’s DLC after that, both are very good. I’ve heard the DLC has a lot of references to some older games the devs made but I don’t have those.
I’d recommend starting with 1 and then 2, there’s some cool stuff near the end of 2 that hits harder if you’ve played 1. X can go anywhere after 1 since it’s the closest gameplay-wise and X has some references to 1.
okay, firstly, xenoblade refers to 4 video game. Xenoblade Chronicles 1, X, 2, and 3. They're really good and introspective and you should play them. but its not that simple.
1, 2, and 3 are all on Nintendo Switch. X is on WiiU, so its okay to skip that one if you dont have the console. X is also a little wierd. It's completely different and futuristic, so even though it was released between 1 and 2, play it after those. Maybe even after 3.
The issue is where to start.
You can start with 1 or 2. Most people start with 1, naturally. I started with 2.
The case for starting with 1 goes as follows:
It was the first released
It works perfectly as a standalone if you don't want to continue after it (even though you probably will want to)
more... normal. than 2
The case for starting with 2:
worse gameplay, so its up and up from here
slightly more lore relevance, pulls u in more
get it over with bc its kinda wierd and oversexualized and Rex's voice direction oh lawd
my personal play order recommendation is 2 (and maybe dlc prequel sidestory), 1 (and included sidestory), X if you have a WiiU, 3, 3's dlc. You can swap 2 and 1, but meh.
The dlc for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is important because of the Future Redeemed Sidestory. It's so important both Protags from 1 and 2 come back, along with Computer God from 1.
and then when you're inevitably confused afterwwards, either come crawling back to me (probably in tears. you will cry) or go to Luxin on youtube. have fun, play xenoblade, live laugh lacerate.

you will take my pokemon quiz and attempt to identify pokemon by generation. Now,
curious about something—reblog in the tags how many works your favorite rarepair has on ao3
Akkala indeed. Also full region ranking for fun.
Akkala, I love the fall look. Tarrey Town is also the best town.
Necluda, it has Kakariko and Hateno.
Hebra, winter is my favorite season and the Rito are cool. Just wish all the constant snow didn't make things hard to see.
Faron, mainly because of Lurelin and Eventide. Wish the ocean had a bit more to it. Also I don't normally notice performance issues in games, but things always seem to slow down a bit when I'm in the jungle area, even if I'm just walking around doing nothing.
Lanayru, I like the Zora but it feels like something's missing here. Don't want underwater exploration, I'd be too scared to handle that.
Central Hyrule, couldn't do anything there in BotW since it was Guardian Central. They're gone in TotK so I can finally explore all the ruins.
Eldin, the heat around Death Mountain is annoying but I like the Gorons and it's not as big of a problem in TotK. Also the Lost Woods are here, but I haven't been there in TotK yet because I can see that something's up.
Gerudo, I like the town and bazaar, but I don't like how both games start off by having sandstorms that make it hard to see and get rid of your map. I haven't even seen much of it in TotK because of it. The Highlands also just exist.
Sky Islands, I expected more from them based on the trailers and starting area, but there's not much up there.
The Depths, actual nightmare land. I'm afraid of the dark, can barely get myself to go down there. And of course it's where most of the cool amiibo stuff from BotW is. It's scary and full of demons from what I've seen I do not like it.
Personally I’m a big fan of ten gerudo desert but I do like necluda, faron, and the sky islands
I like stupid Nintendo games and other JRPGs. Call me Brim.
