Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion

I actually quite enjoy this, as a big fan of AC, Gundam etc I love mech games. I get to play with friends and while the mounts in the game are totally redundant I think they're a fun little way to travel. I picked this game up for around $15AUD and I'm planning on Streaming it every Monday as part of my stream cycle. I get that its not the perfect game but the customisation, weapons, colours etc are all fun and the random enemies you can loot gives me a little dopamine hit everytime I shoot someone down and loot their corpse even if its not good equipment. If you like mech shooters and want something with amazing customisation I'd recommend this.

kein schöner combat flow ausrüstung wird einem hinterhergeworfen aber wirklich abwechslung gibt es nicht. story wirkt beknackt das Kampsystem hat Anthem bei weitem besser hinbekommen

7/10 more to do so far than original combats fun story is better than first game no bugs yet havent tried co op or multiplayer yet

its a fun game and has some of the worst story, voice lines, and pacing. the first game was the same and somehow a little better. this game plays better then the first due to the open world aspect that is semi independent of missions. otherwise its kind of the same thing without too many innovations. it might be the closets thing ill ever play to anthem according to friends and if the story of that game was worse I understand why it shut down. Titanic Scion is somewhat like a C list anime or an edgy fanfic: its goofy but takes itself far too seriously. your character seems completely disinterested in most NPC interactions but forgets critical info and seems surprised or concerned when the narrative needs it. that and when you reload they make a concerned "OH NO" every time as if they did not realize the gun clip would empty. to its credit however its combat isn't terrible. the NPCs are not super smart but they are not exactly meant to be, and you get to by heavy armored iron man. I do wish your second weapons didn't float by you like wings, but as far as a meck-builder-light games goes it could be worse. I got it on sale at 80% off, id recommend waiting for similar. and as a side note, all the DLCs are cosmetic, even the vehicle ones. the "exclusive" guns you can get are more or less level 1 reskins and you cant sell them. not going to say its not worth it to have options but you don't need them. the swords you get are actually pretty good but you will eventually find better.

Criminally underrated game, two main gripes with it is that it's pretty short and the bosses sometimes get stuck. Very fun nonetheless

Если брать по сильной скидке, в игре есть светлые стороны. Но за полную ценну у игры слишком много проблем с системами лута, недосказаностями о механиках и однообразии в драках.

I don't think this is a $70 good game, but if you can stomach A LOT of jank, and get it on a decent sale, it's actually a lot of fun. The basic mech combat is generally quite solid with a lot of fun options and variants on playstyles. The story is... workable, the fusion system is really cool, mech visual customization is great, the game overall looks quite solid despite being relatively low-res graphics... there's just a lot going on here to like. The main problem with the game is that it feels like most of it was never actually playtested, or in some cases even finished. Every weapon has a unique weapon mastery, except 90% of those weapon masteries are copy pasted to the same 3 stats, and I tell you what, a multiplicative +30% crit damage means a LOT more to weapons that have 400% crit damage than ones that have 10, lol. The fusion system's mechanics are almost completely unexplained ingame, and it's super annoying to grind the specific parts needed to max skills. The ice cream shop itself is LITERALLY useless, with such incredible buffs as 0.5% stun resistance or 1% ground move speed for a whopping 10 minutes. Weapon balance is even worse, bows are almost comically bad on top of being hard to use, while basic blades/lightsabers do more damage than anything else, faster, safer, and with less effort. Knives are probably the single worst implementation of a dagger/knife type weapon I've seen in a game, they're so clunky and suck so bad at targeting enemies that it hurts to even use them. Maces are another contender for the worst weapon in the game with how slow and clunky and low damage they are... until you use the weapon throw skill and that ONE skill is basically the only way to use them. And don't even get me started on armor, there are really good and... really not good ones, and there's SO many types, with so many different pointless stats, that it's just annoying to even figure out what you actually want. Also, real talk, it's just grindy as hell. Most enemies only have a low chance to drop anything, and there's a TON of RNG in weapons, so if you want a *good* version of your preferred weapon you're probably gonna have to farm 30 of them over hours. Want to farm the Reisender enemy? Good luck lol, they only have a chance of spawning in a huge circle on the map, so if you clear that full circle over 10 minutes you might get 1 spawn, 5, or 0, who knows! How exciting! I enjoy the game. I recommend it on sale. It's fun, has soul, and looks good. But god, this needed like 6 straight months of QOL and playtesting that it never got, and never will now that the devs have abandoned it.

I like this game. But I do understand if anyone doesn't like this game lol. I think these mechy looter shooters are pretty niche. if you like Armored Core, chances are you'll like this one. dont expect it to play like the first game. there are similarities but this is gonna feel like a different experience for you.
