Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition is a fantastic story trapped in a frustrating game. In this (almost) spoiler free video essay, I explain why.

PS. Welcome to my new channel! This video was originally posted on my old channel on April 22nd, 2022. It’s reposted here because I’m starting a new channel dedicated to this type of content. I also took the opportunity to make some small updates to the video while I was at it.
