More insight from Famitsu’s Xenoblade Chronicles X reader survey
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Famitsu held a reader poll for Xenoblade Chronicles X in one of its most recent issues. 1,257 people participated in the survey, and voted on topics such as the game’s difficulty, amount of content, and more.
Kotaku translated a number of questions several days back, but we’ve gone ahead and gathered up additional data – largely because the results were quite interesting! Continue on below to see what players thought of the Skells, squads, overall rating, and more.
Q1: [Respondents chose from pre-determined categories for elements they expected from the game and what things they liked after playing. Multiple choices were allowed.] Many players expected “World setting/Story” from the game, but “Exploration on the field” received the most votes for being good after respondents had played the game. Players were dissatisfied with the position of the main character and the degree of emotionalism of the story, so “World setting/Story” received harsh numbers in the latter question. [Note: respondents were able to choose multiple points and Famitsu expressed the results in a weird way. For example, it doesn’t mean 8% of the respondents thought the story was good. It means story had 8 percent of all votes when a single respondent may give 0-10 different votes. The percentage doesn’t tell how much players like each element. Rather, it shows how much they like each element in comparison to other elements.]
Q9: Collectopedia items are important for completing quests. It is intended that players share information of collectible items, so there are basically no hints for getting the items. More than 40 percent of the respondents thought that having few hints wasn’t much fun.
