This game though has a stand alone story, so you don’t have to have played the previous games to enjoy this installment. The game boasts about twenty hours of gameplay and is quite enjoyable. The story is interesting and it keep your interest. While the main story is about half the gameplay, and the character dynamics are quite strong. The scope of the story is about a brother trying to save his sister. The relationship between the brother and sister is a heart warming affair. The art style is well executed. The game is set in ancient China and we see a lot of interesting architectures and buildings. The game is also very immersive. The soundtrack is also very fitting and feel of ancient Chinese music is spot on. The mini games are well implemented too. The mini game is a type of chess and it is a lot of fun to play. The combat is ok but not overly great. The combat is fun and it does feel impactful. But the enemy AI is a bit meh. It is very easy to identify the enemy moves and exploit them. The main character is somewhat likeable but he is somewhat generic. The character models look good but they don’t have dynamic facial expressions. The game introduces some famous historical characters, but the historical characters don’t have major roles in the story. The character levelling system is atypical and refreshing in the RPG genre, but it feels under utilized due to the length of the game. The level designs are quite linear. There is hardly any detour in the levels themselves. The occasional branching paths are mostly for treasure chests. Therefore, for the most of the game you are just running straight from point A to point B. The side missions are boring and they don’t impact the story itself. There aren’t enough cosmetic items for your character. The good of Xuan Yuan Sword 7 most definitely outweighs the mixed bag. Overall Xuan Yuan Sword 7 is a great game and the story is compelling. With all said and done it’s definitely worth the price of admission so if you’re looking for a game in this genre look no further and head on over to the Xbox digital games store and give it a go.… Expand
