Xenogears suffers from being a gigantic text dump at the start, the pacing really sucks. This was a common issue in jrpgs during the PSX era. A really bad trend with the reasoning being that making games more and more cinematic and story driven would always been a good thing.

There's a short text dump, then a town to wander (with a Chrono Trigger cameo!) and some combat immediately after. It's good.

I tried to play Xenosaga 2 recently and it is unbearably slow. Remember that gag in the Who Shot Mr. Burns episode where Principal Skinner speaks so slowly and dully that Chief Wiggum can't help but sigh in exasperation? That's Xenosaga 2.

I wish someone could make a game that looks exactly like awesome 70s scifi art, but it's still pretty rad that they drew it.

They'll get more in, it's not even listed on Gamestop's site or computers yet. The same thing happened with many of the Tales special editions from Bamco and any of the Blizzard Special Editions, Amazon only has like a few hundred allocated by default until the proper number can be confirmed.

So BLADE now stands for Builders of the Legacy After the Destruction of Earth instead of the engrish trainwreck it used to mean.

I'm still stunned that 0 of the regularly voiced cast got my nerves during the game. Sharla got close when Jojo'ing but the rest was solid, and Melia and Riki were surprisingly enjoyable/great.

Do Tales games still have that problem where the battles own but the rest of the game crawls at a loving painfully slow pace? I remember trying to play Vesperia again after Xenoblade and it just wasn't happening.
