I get you. For me, I felt like I was sitting in cute grandpa's charming countryside cabin and listening to a story. I won't be playing the game in English anyway, but I liked some of the voices more than a lot of other JRPGs English casts I've heard.I think the JP narrator is "annoying" in the sense that it's a very stereotypical sort of court jester/comedian voice with silly speech patterns. But at least it has flavor and intent. The English narration was really, really poorly done. Whatever intent they had for it, it came off as an uninterested person narrating what should be an exciting introduction to a big adventure RPG. The thing is, Nintendo is usually really good with reading intent and translating that into something effective in other languages. With Xenoblade 2 everything I've seen from the first trailer has fallen flat. Very unusual.
So, bit new to this series since I didn't own a Wii for the last game.
However I saw videos of the previous game and how amazing it looked with the flying mechanics and mechs, etc.
I know this one was coming for the Switch and I was looking forward to it after what I saw of the previous one.
However upon looking at videos and things for this one.....where are the flying mechs and things? Don't tell me that they are ditching what looked like the most fun aspect of the game and making it a more traditional jrpg?

I still have doubts on this release date...

Can I ? Sure, it would be nice, but it seems so fast considering the X release on WiiU. I won't be surprised if it is pushed back to Q2 2018. Well, we'll see.Oh my god please

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 |OT| I Still Have Doubts About The Release Date
When you consider X released in Japan 2.5 years ago, it's not that short of a development. Plus we don't know how long it was in development during X.

Considering Monolithsoft is a ~100 person studio, and they worked on X and BotW at the same time, I would say the turnaround is very impressive for a RPG.

I'm really really happy it's indeed in 2017, guys we are in for a treat
Why does Nintendo insist on lying about Xenoblade 2's release date
No ARMS love? :-/Switch gets Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2, Mario X Rabbids, Mario Odyssey, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 all in one calendar year.
That's pretty damn good (even if 8 Deluxe is a spruced-up port).

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 |OT| I Still Have Doubts About The Release Date
To be fair though, a lot of people are comparing when XCX released outside of Japan (December 2015) to now, when really we should be thinking about when XCX released in Japan (April 2015) to now. It's not two years, it'll have been a good two and a half years, actually a bit more than that since it went gold, not simply two years.
AAA RPGS take at least three years. Even if you consider this AA+ or something like that (which is fair) two and a half years is a great turn around. It's going to take Atlus 6 years to do Persona 6.
