GR:
For a certain time period, and a certain kind of gamer, Xenogears was the potential of the gaming industry to tell complex imaginative stories; unfortunately, it's a potential we'll likely never see realized. While games with greater emotional and intellectual storytelling have been emerging slowly over the past decade, and the production team behind Xenogears now has proper funding, the likelihood of a true sequel from them (spiritual or stylistic) remains in the dust, the history of which is heavily detailed in a four-part-series at Between Life and Games.
Square Enix's interest in reviving its classics is the long-awaited ray of hope and the ideal chance to resurrect adored gems like Xenogears.
Seriously, I mean if anything an HD Remaster. I wish they had the balls to allow the entire story to be made, but I get the financial gamble won't all for it.
Square Enix suggested they might remaster more games from their storied archives—here are the classics we’d like to see get a new coat of paint.
I would definitely enjoy a Xenogears remaster. Recently finished Legend of Dragoon again (this time with platinum trophy) and would love to dive back into Xenogears with Fei and the rest of the crew.
Square Enix classics? dont they mean Squaresoft. Square Enix dont make classic games, just games with pretty graphics, no heart & soul, boring & over stuffed with woke Gen Z cockiness.
But while were on the subject i would love too see a remaster of Front Mission 3.
With Chronicles finished, it's time to return to the mechs and mysteries of Mira
Yes, I agree. We definitely need to retake Xenoblade Chronicles X which btw it left us on a cliffhanger suggesting there wiull be a XCX2 .... and im up for it.
I put so many hours into X, just please ad a music volume setting was going crazy walking around base and hearing
"UH UH... YEAH!.. YEAH!...YEAHYEAHYEEEEAAAAH!..U H UH!"
I can't believe they haven't done it yet, it's the Xenoblade game I'm most excited for, I would buy it in a heart beat.
It's obvious why we won't get more installments in those franchises. Developers don't own IPs, publishers do. Square Enix and Bandai Namco own those IPs.
