00:00 - Intro
04:10 - Part 1 Pro
09:28 - Part 2 Cons
14:32 - Overall

Pro
Visuals and gameplay/combat still hold up well
Runs fine at 30fps
The open-world part is still enjoyable
The online part isn’t bad

Cons
While the visuals are an improvement over the WiiU version, it still doesn’t look as good as Xenoblade Chronicles 1, 2, & 3 (1 being a remastered/remake of the Wii version)
The arts combat is still good, but it would have been nice if given the option to change the arts combat to the ones used in 2 & 3
No Switch 2 enhancement so far
Some missions felt like I was stuck until I turned on the online mode
