If I recall correctly, the composer is Yuki Kajiura, who did the .Hack//Sign series. She's quite good, and I really enjoy her work, though I imagine sometimes her style might not exactly fit the Xenosaga series.

Nothing exciting happens to further the story? I must have a different version of the game than you.Quote:

I hope you don't go visit any xeno site forum. Those fanboys are going insane over how awful this game is.
Saying how the series is ruined because the head guy is no longer creating the game and how it is an entirely new staff from the people who made Ep. 1 is.
So I was more or less getting my opinions about what people thought of this game from those sites not really this one.
Maybe somebody who isn't quite so much of a xeno freak but still likes the seies can give me a little more of a logical explanation to the whole ordeal over how monolith or namco is doing this series now. I think those guys may be playing on their emotions just a bit too much now to really give all that much of an accurate response.
I don't really care who is behind the scenes as long as the games still affect me like Episode 1 and 2 have, people that are saying how http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifty the game is because of that are looking too much into it, the game was clearly a great and faithful continuing to the first game and saying it wasn't just because of who is calling the shots is utter stupidity.
I haven't finished it yet but I must say I'm pretty dissapointed. The first one was very complicated, but they dumbed it down too much. The characters become copies of one another. The music is good in a few parts but mainly just techno. Most of the characters have recieved little development. The new characters barely have any. The character battles are quite boring, and The new mech battle system is worse. I hope episode III will improve this series which had so much potential. One good thing is they got rid of the super-deformed anime eyes.
I played a bit more and I see what people are talking about with the magic system thing...but I always fought it because people said it was a tree. Those people are morons. A tree branches off and this does not branch at all.
I am dissappointed so far because they did such a poor job of everything. The cutscenes so far have been horrible. The lack of music during them has made everything seem really ackward. The whole game so far has really reminded me of mega man legends. Maybe it is just me but the voices had horrible recordings for the most part. Maybe it is because I use mono sound but it just sounds like the person is 2 feet away from the mic. Did they use lower sound quality or what. It just sounds BAD from a recording standpoint.
Battle system I don't care for too much yet but I am only at the beginning of the of MOMO's dive. There is still a long way to go for me but the game has got to do a better job for me to come out netural.
Although unlike most I am enjoying the story so far.
Was Xenosaga made by the same people as .Hack cause that game was rubbish. If there similer then I'd never be bothered to chip my PS2 to get it
SEe i've put a good 25 or so hours into it yes its good and yes it fun but i just don't like the fact that they changed so many things in the game! it ridiculous! *tear drop**sniffle*i liked how it was......
Wrong companies entirely. .hack was made by Cyber Connect 2 and Xenosaga was made by Monolithsoft(or something like that). CC2 works for bandai essentially just as Monolithsoft works for Namco.Quote:

There's something you don't hear everyday.Quote:

I just finished the initial run through of Second Miltia, and during the Gear battle afterward, I thought I saw in the corner of my eye another Gear looming above that bore a certain resemblance to a villian from Xenogears. When the two fighting Gears suddenly lost power, I began to wonder, could this resemblance be a coincidence or perhaps somehow they are working parts of Xenogears into this epic...
Take care all.
well its not out of the question tha you could have seen an old villan because the same people who made xenogears made xenosaga! :tongue:
An NTSC adapter just changed NTSC signals from your PS2 into PAL signals. It's just for troutty old TVs who can't understand both.Quote:

What I meant was that I thought the US was supposed to be more sensitive when it came to stuff like that. :pQuote:
