Monolith Soft, the developer behind the acclaimed JRPG series Xenoblade Chronicles, recently shared a striking image on their official X (Twitter) account. The photo revealed towering stacks of script books, highlighting the immense effort that goes into crafting the narrative of their games. These script piles, they clarified, represent only the main storylines, separate from the scripts dedicated to side quests, which further showcases the depth and breadth of content in the Xenoblade Chronicles series.
Xenoblade Chronicles Is One Huge Game
Scripts Here, Scripts There, Scripts Everywhere
The Xenoblade Chronicles series is renowned for its vast scale, encompassing expansive plots, extensive dialogue, and enormous worlds that players can spend countless hours exploring. Completing just the main storyline of any game in the series typically demands at least 70 hours, and that's without delving into the myriad side quests and additional content. Dedicated players have reported spending upwards of 150 hours to achieve a complete 100% run.
The response from the fan community to Monolith Soft's post was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing awe at the sheer volume of script books. Comments ranged from calling it "so awesome" to playful inquiries about whether these script books might be available for purchase as collector's items.
As for what's next for the beloved series, Monolith Soft has not yet announced a new title, leaving fans eagerly awaiting further news.
