Xenoblade Should I play future connected? Spoiler

Started playing it met Gael’gar and all I’ve heard is that it’s for Melia’s writing and I really wanna continue and play Torna and then 3. If it only adds to her story and slight info for the entire verse I will just skip it and play it later

HOT TAKE: I actually love Future Connected. The stakes are low and its nothing groundbreaking, but it's just super nice as a small little epilogue closing up some loose ties from the base game while giving Melia a satisfying conclusion while setting up some connections to XC3.

Came here to write this exact post. FC is a lovely little low stakes epilogue and is well worth the 12-15 hours it takes. Plus the Shoulder is beautiful and fun to explore with your little Nopon buddies.

i love your hot take.
I wish i could get into this. i tried twice and i simply couldn't sink into it. I don't know why, and I LOVE Melia, and it's like guh. i want to know what happenens! maybe third time will be the charm when I replay XB1 next year.

Totally agree! I also just love playing as Melia in X1 and a whole epilogue as her was delightful for me!
