A game that obviously went through a tough development cycle and it shows in its performance issues, though those are partially due to the 2K launcher which is dogshit and ass and needs to be retired.
Full disclosure that I have not finished the game but the only reason why I haven't is because the 2k Launcher gave me a catastrophic bug that wouldn't let it launch. This game is endlessly charming, its so fun to have a comic book game that isn't afraid of being comic book-y. its bright, its got color, its interesting, you have goofy outfits and big bold attacks. Its well shot which is insane for a video game, most video games don't know what a camera angle is and this game busts out some genuinely inspired ones that create some evocative cutscenes. The character writing ranges from corny to incredibly well done, with it being some of the best appearances of many of these characters in years. It's content rich and mechanically dense with a lot of fun shit that comes from the way that its card based system interacts with the multiple mechanics that it gives per character. Its progression is a little jank and the game's very stingy but this is pretty easily managed with some very slight modding. I dunno. There's definitely issues, but this game really deserves acclaim. If I wasn't a mega Disney hater, I'd be pimping this thing everywhere.

This game is delightfully fascinating. Most of my time spent actually playing it was using the My Summer Car Online mod where me and a friend created a bit where we were unfulfilled, bitter lesbian partners living on the European countryside working on cars individually so we could drive away and leave each other. My friend got lost going on a grocery run and flipped her car over twice and when she got back I found out she spent all our money on beer and none on food. Perfect game. Literally only rating it 4/5 stars because MSCO went paid and now we can't revisit this astounding joke.

This game needed a better fighting shot than what it got. Bamco launched this thing with no expectation of its current running series, Witch From Mercury, to do the numbers or attention that it got and it shows in every fiber of this production which didn't push anything new but instead tried to get old fans back with a modern kind of shooter that probably doesn't fit Gundam very well. On top of that, it was poorly advertised. Its monetary system was crushing and way too limiting, meaning that unless you forked over cash there was no way you were earning a single one of those locked suits. It had a strange selection of mobile suits that didn't quite hit the level of "wow cool deep cut" but also didn't cover all the bases on classics that everyone loves.

This game was confused. It was an obvious attempt at trying to bandwagon on a popular style of game. That'd be a lot less bad if it was a lot more focused and a lot better made. But it wasn't all bad, it was fun, it was snappy, the maps weren't perfect but many of them were charming and it was fun that it managed to feel a bit different than the games it was shamelessly chasing. I hope Bandai's next endeavor is better reasoned.
