MEGATON MUSASHI W: WIRED

It's probably a game for endless looting and gear chasing, but this game's story mode is a terrible way to experience the game. The gameplay in the story mode is so mind numbingly boring, cutscenes constantly interrupt the gameplay, and you'll be spending the majority of the time watching cutscenes before you get 10 seconds to actually play. The story itself had some promise, but there's too many plotholes, too many characters that add little to the plot, and too many turns in the story that it gives most bad mecha stories a run for their money. I stuck it through the end to watch the train wreck, but it did not feel worth it. Sad, cause the game has decent production values, and the amount of animated cutscenes they have is impressive, but it baffles me how so much time can be spend on the production, and the plot turns out worse even by children's Saturday morning cartoon standards. If you want a loot game in the same vein as PSO, this might be an okay game to try, but otherwise, stay clear of this game.

I can't believe that it took me so long to find this game. + The plot and design of Megaton Musashi W is a love letter to 70's, 80's, and 90's mecha anime. The Mazinger, Voltes V, and Getter Robo collabs aren't on accident. + The difficulty curve is as difficult as you want to make it. + A deep level of customization that is still accessible to beginners and casual players. The main points of customization are robot parts, motherboards, and pilot skills. + New game plus. - Level 5's marketing team needs to do a better job. This game should have been on everyone's radar.

I wish there was a neutral option because when the game actually remembers that it's neither a visual novel or an anime and lets you play the gameplay is pretty good, not amazing, but still fun enough to want to continue engaging with. I should make it clear that I haven't watched a second of the show this game is based on nor do I particularly care about that side of things My issue is the game starts off with several minutes of anime scenes, not the worst thing, kinda cozy in its own way, then you get to play ONE tutorial fight that takes maybe 2-3 minutes at most, followed by (assuming you allow the voice acting to complete for each text box) approximately ONE AND A HALF ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HOURS OF VISUAL NOVEL SLOP INTERRUPTED BY THE OCCASIONAL ANIME SCENE BEFORE YOU GET TO PLAY THE GAME AGAIN. I don't give a ♥♥♥♥ about the town is fake, the donut planet, whatever the ♥♥♥♥ else they painstakingly shotgunned me in the face with for over an hour I just want to play the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ robot game, this game straight up reverse Shinji'd me, all I wanted to do was get in the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ robot and the game straight up forgot that was a thing for well over an hour. So BE WARNED, if you're gonna pla…

Do you like Gaint Robots smashing stuff? Then have fun! Do you hate cut scenes that can go for more than 30 minutes at a time even when you try to skip through them? YOU WILL HATE THAT PART OF THE GAME. Be warned. Robot Fun. Terrible cut scene hellscape.

Honestly super disappointed... like if you love gundam breaker and giant robot anime as a whole then this is def for you. but honestly I think the game is just giant robot brain rot. the combat is super button mashy barely have to try and evade enemies die really fast if you mash the buttons. this game gives you insane amounts of loot and its all the same. this is just gundam breaker but with a level 5 coat of paint... I keep bringing up gundam breaker cause well i played gundam breaker 2 and 3 and they're fine if you like gundam but thats all it is a glorified fantasy game when you build robots and make them fight but the combat doesn't really matter the parts barely make a difference its just boring. I had some weird high hopes that maybe this game was just a evolution of LBX but it really isn't. LBX has strategy has tight combat mechanics. but the combat in this game feels really loose the camera feels kinda drunk most of the time like it swings in at weird times. at least gundam breaker has tight combat and controls and the camera doesn't feel drunk. Im so sad because this game is neither LBX or Gundam breaker its kinda inspired by it but some how plays worse. and the sto…

Great game, I love collaboration robots !!!!!!! I wish they will add more collaboration robots via payable DLC.
