Message: [QUOTE="Taukyrie, post: 162841, member: 136920"] Less a game that everyone loves and more of a game that people who are fans of the franchise really like and that I know and acknowledge is good, but I don't like it anyway. Anyway, I'm talking about Super Robot Wars 30. It's a good game, I've played some of it when my bf came to visit, and I could see how it could be fun, but honestly my main problem has nothing to do with the game itself but everything surrounding it. To be extremely blunt, for a game claiming to be the big 30th anniversary entry of a long-running franchise, it sure didn't feel like it. Like you'd think they'd do something that felt just a biiittt more special than just mostly throwing in series that were in the last 3 games, 4 new series (one of which they REALLY shafted), and just overall making it feel less like a special event game and more like an entry that honestly could've just been released at any point in time. Honestly, if they did not constantly remind you that this supposed to be an anniversary game, I probably would not nearly have as much of a problem with it as I do, but nope, they feel the need to remind you that this is supposed to be the *special 30th anniversary game* by less than subtly winking at the camera about it. (ESPECIALLY in the skits you get when you save and quit during a stage) Not to mention the things that WERE included for the 30th anniversary were included in a half-assed manner. Like some of the mech animations and sprits for the OG DLC units were just uuuggglllyyyy. Like I know this franchise is a licensing nightmare and it's not cheap, but I have to sigh that some of the most interesting inclusions are locked behind paid DLC. (Mostly looking at Sakura Wars and Getter Robo Devolution) "Oh but Tau, can't you play as them for one stage?" One stage, yes. But if you want them as part of your main roster, you have to pay for the DLC. Not to mention the scaling of the DLC units isn't very good to the point where some units won't do a lot of damage no matter how much upgrades you put into them. Honestly SRW 30 is one of the reasons why, even though I actually really like three of the series they've revealed so far for SRW Y, I cannot bring myself to have any reaction other than apathy towards it.
