Personally, I prefer 2, but the game does have a bit of a slow start compared to the first that turns away some people. I'd probably recommend the first though, if it's your first in the series.The two games can be played in any order really, as the plots are mostly separate with only a slight connection, but I would say playing 1 first is optimal.It's really up to you though, if you look at the trailers or some of the gameplay and one really stands out to you, pick that one.

There's no wrong answer. It depends on what you're looking to get out of the game. Xenoblade 1 is a longer game with a more serious and event filled story, whereas Xenoblade 2 is a bit shorter in length and is focused on character development.

Xenoblade 2's a much more depressing and emotional game whereas Xenoblade 1's more akin to a revenge story. If you want to jump into it asap you can't go wrong starting with Xenoblade 2 if you don't mind it's rocky start and then getting DE when it releases, but if you start with DE then go to 2 you'll appreciate some late game stuff a bit more in 2. I'd agree that the first half of 2 is a pretty silly game, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. 1 was definitely more serious but it also didn't really hit me all that hard when sad stuff did happen, whereas in 2 a lot of the last few chapters left a super bittersweet taste in my mouth because of how it had developed the characters up to that point before the sad stuff starts happening, and I feel like showing the more humorous side of the characters before that definitely helped strengthen those moments. Personally, I prefer XC2. The two stories are on the same level for me and XC2 has much more enjoyable gameplay imo.However, I think that XC1 is a better starting point. XC1 handles it's tutorials much better, doesn't take forever to really get going (both the narrative and the combat system) and is overall easier to like for most people.Quite a few of the problems that I have with the original XC1 should be fixed in the Definitive Edition, so it might even be able to surpass XC2 as my favourite JRPG.

I played XC1 a few months before XC2, and wasn't really made a fan. But Definitive Edition is looking like a solid improvement that'll at least fix some of the more superficial issues I had with the first game, largely due to it's age.I personally think XC2+Torna would be a great experience, because it was made to really establish a good foundation for the series itself.

It connects to the first game, but only a bit, and IMO the connection works in either direction. (This applies to the old version of the first game)That said, I can't help but think Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition's new expansion, Future Connected, is going to have significant tie in with XC2. Which means you very well might miss out on some of that.This would kinda be like Torna the Golden Country, which was a standalone game, but some of it's heftiest moments were tied to, or set ups for, the base game (XC2). All aspects of XC are very well done from start to finish. The dialog, music, voice acting, story, pace, gameplay, open world, are all about as polished as it gets. It's not exactly big on character development (over than shulk maybe) and maybe the graphics and gameplay haven't aged well. But you'll still have gameplay challenges, still be surprised by a few plot twists, still get a sense no other game has given of being on a living being as you progress.XC2 is a regular world like any other RPG, has terrible voice acting (and a little bit of good), a convoluted plot where everytime you're in trouble you're magically saved by something novel, a tutorial system that never fully explains the battle system, very confusing maps, and boobs.
