One thing I still don't understand after the opening is why the aliens are attacking humanity. They were at war with each other, what was the point of hunting down humanity as well?
I hope the game answers at some point.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
Are you feeling the mechs

Well the game certainly wont win any awards for groundbreaking character customization. Aside form the boob thing being gone (meh) all the facial structure features are stuck to the preset defaults and basicly you're just coloring the character in, aside from their hairstyle, voice and height and stuff like freckles moles scars facepaint and their pupil shape.

That said it's not TOO too bad as long as you don't hate anime looking characters for whatever reason. It's not Destiny-teir of godawful, thank The Lord.

If you're asking If I like the designs, then hell yeah. I've always loved mechs.

why does the game feel the need to provide flashbacks of a scene I just saw like 5 minutes ago?
Why do story writers do this in general

I don't think I can make a judgment on it yet.
I only relay got started in the original Xenoblade. I got too caught up in Halo and Smash to get anywhere sugnifigant but I liked what the combat was so far. I had just beaten the first real boss (That spider that was going to kill the the "buncha jokers" guy)

There are plenty of mobs everywere, alot of them are huge. The  whole shit looks like Metroid: Jurasic Park. Items are littered everywhere too, although most of those items them seem to be low-grade materials or mundane quest shit.

Not sure what else is out there, I just started, although I've heard good things.

But I guess in the end -- Sort of feels like everyday its harder to stay happy where you are. There are all these ways to look through the fence into your neighbor's yard.

Why even risk it? its safer to stay distant.
