The holy grail of modern RPGs today, a true revival of the JRPG, and the reason for gamers to dust off their Nintendo Wii. The only relation this game has to the similarly named Xenogears and Xenosaga is the fact that they were all created by Tetsuya Takahashi. Unlike those games, however, Xenoblade boasts one of the largest open worlds this side of Skyrim. In addition, it has an epic battle system, fantastic art direction, a story that (for the most part) doesn't play into traditional JRPG tropes, and beautiful music.
While graphics whores, Call of Duty addicts and console fanboys have denigrated this game due to the simple fact that it's a JRPG on the Wii, almost everyone else has given it well-deserved praise.
Fanboy 1: The Wii's on its last legs, and it's always sucked!
Fanboy 2: Meh, this game looks like JRPG garbage.
Fanboy 3: Those graphics are shit!
Me: *shows fanboys a review of the game*
Fanboys: Ah...that actually looks really, really good...
Me: Wow, Xenoblade has really been turning fanboys across the spectrum into converts.

An underrated JRPG on the Wii, New Nintendo 3ds, and Nintendo Switch. Known for its great story and themes, the blone anime swordie in Smash Bros who can see the future for some random reason, and that one random furball named Riki who's a meme
Btw Reyn is a character in that game, know for his quote "its reyn time!"
"It's Reyn time to play Xenoblade Chronicles!"
"No one knows what Xenoblade Chronicles is; its pretty good tho"

Xenoblade Go is the failed version of PokΓ©mon Go. It was released on iPhone devices for Xenoblade's anniversary but the game turned out to be a huge disappointment and received a lot of backlash. The game turned out to be very buggy and have very low graphics, though there are a few people who like it. Those people are weird.
You like Xenoblade go? You have such bad taste

A non-traditional rpg for the Switch that went largely unnoticed until Pyra and Mythraβs inclusion in Smash. Nintendo took the first game and tried to use hot anime girls in minimal clothing to appeal to more of an audience.
Shulk: Iβm Shulk from Xenoblade Chronicles! My sword letβs me see the future!
Rex: Iβm Rex from Xenoblade Chronicles 2! My sword letβs me see the future AND is my girlfriend!

A phenomena in which someone plays a game that is both overwhelmingly flawed and exceedingly exceptional. Enjoyment of the game will increase during the play-through as the flaws are accepted and appear less often, while the positive traits increase in quality and quantity.
"I've never, EVER, felt this way about a game. I don't even know where to begin."
"Yep. That's the Xenoblade 2 effect."
Where Ocean, Yuuko, or Evoker say some sus ass shit that makes you wanna say "I hate it here". Much like Yuuko moment and Ocean moment the Xeno GC Moment is used in the same manor.
"Wow Ocean came in a hot pocket this sure is a Xenoblade GC Moment, lmao!"
