I don't thinkit can actually be episode 1 without thinking getting a bit murky since they don't own the Xenogears franchise, but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the ideas from episode 1 were lifted into Xenoblade X
Well, yeah, the same way that Saga was parts of PW but "not really" lol. So yeah, like you said, ideas and story direction.
I feel like all the Xeno games end up being Takahashi just trying to recreate the story and history he made with Gears that he never got to finish. Even Blade could be bits and pieces of one of the PW episodes.
