XC2 is really tedious because of blade management and the changes they made to building up specials, but the others are fine.

It's a system that rewards you significantly for learning it and mastering it.

I'd get a Switch if they made an XCX port. That's all I have to say about the series.

I actually like the combat a lot, especially the first Xenoblade. Its really satisfying to position the characters around to get off a backslash and using melias specials are fun too.

I understand why people would think it is tedious, but I enjoy it personally. Granted I'm not the type of person to grind in a Xenoblade game.

I never even really had to grind. You get exp just by going to new locations and you can usually complete the sidequest justs by progressing through an area.

I think i only had to to a bit of gridning for Mrs Insolence.

which game is the better one of the three?

They're all completely different types of games with their own positives and negatives.

Xenoblade 1 is a classic JRPG with a great cast/dub, amazing ost and story and my personal favorite.

X is often overlooked and probably puts the least emphasis on story than any of the game but its world is massive and incredible to explore plus toy can fly around in mechs. The soundtrack is hit or miss for some people but like it.

Xenoblade 2 is a lot more modern, both in the way it presents the story and with its mechanics. Theres a gacha mechanic which is decisive and the game is more "anime" in that the characters can be kinda tropey which is only excuberated by the lackluster english focus acting by the protagonist (which does get better over time). It still has a pretty good story and tie in with the first game though and again the sound track and world is great.

I think theyre all worth playing personally.
