A new introductory trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles 3D shows off a variety of areas from the game’s large world. The narrator introduces games like the Bionis leg, arm, and other parts of the map that you’ll travel to through the course of the story.
The video also shows off features such as changing the time of day, discovering new landmarks, and so on. Following that, we see comments from Japanese players that played the original version of Xenoblade Chronicles on Wii. Nintendo appear to be letting word-of-mouth do the talking for them. Here’s what the comments say:
The world being recommended:
“I was moved by the world’s grandeur.” (26, male)

The battles being recommended:
“Such exhilaration upon defeating enemies.” (36, female)
“The dialogs during battle as well as thinking up battle strategies are fun.” (39, male)
The relationships being recommended:

Other comments:
“Going on an adventure in a grand world without any stress—the original appeal of an RPG.” (26, male)
