Monolith Soft, the creative force behind the acclaimed Xenoblade Chronicles series, recently unveiled a staggering visual on social media: a mountain of scripts showcasing the sheer scale of the game's narrative. This impressive collection, as the developers noted, represents only the main storyline scripts; side quests require an entirely separate set of documents, highlighting the immense effort poured into each title.
