Hey folks, we've noticed some posts of a dismissive nature being made in this thread, in regards to the well-established controversy surrounding Xenoblade's problematic depictions of its characters. As many of you may not have seen the staff post in the spoiler thread, we'd like to post it here as well, for added visibility:
As is always the case, if you see a post that you feel isn't conducive to a healthy discussion, you are encouraged to make use of the report function. Thanks a bunch.Thanks for bearing with us while we sorted out the reports in the thread!
As we reopen, so we can try to avoid having to do this again (for your sake and ours), please remember that it's fine to discuss all aspects of the game as long as we do so maturely, especially on sensitive topics. You don't have to directly engage with any aspects of the topic you don't feel comfortable or equipped to, but in that case please respect that other people will and don't dismiss their concerns.
In the case of That One Screenshot that made the thread blow up - again, feel free to keep discussing it if you so wish, but please respect that a number of people have legitimate grievances with several aspects of it. Please also respect that everyone's comfort levels on this differ and people are still allowed to be excited about the game. A game's flaws and merits do not cancel each other out to just reach a final objective conclusion of only "it's good" or "it's bad".
