Here's a new Japanese trailer for Wii RPG Xenoblade. Interesting premise? Check. Dramatic cutscenes? Check. Awesome enemy designs? Check. Gorgeous music? Check. Gameplay footage? Uhm ...
Seriously, we could really do with getting a look at how this damn thing plays. Everything I've seen concerning Xenoblade promises a terrific little RPG experience, but until we get a good look at the battle system, this is nothing but concept and whispers. I am itching to see how the game really looks, not just how cutscenes make it look.
Great trailer, but please give us something tangible.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
So . . . assuming it plays well, and has half the pedigree of the above mentioned (based solely on visuals, mind you), it should be a decent game, yeah?
But seriously, it may be time for me to dust off the ol' Wii.
Seriously?????
Wait, that didn't look turn-based at all. Has Wikipedia finally failed me?
No...not seriously.
And since I loved FFXII, I am actually quite ecstatic to see that. Now, so long as the AI is programmable, I'll be happy.
This game looks incredible nonetheless. We BETTER see this localized, along with The Last Story.
You seriously haven't played many RPGs, have you?
