>Complained about steam refusing him to sell it at $20 and only allowing him to sell it at $19.99. It's stupid on valve's behalf to disallow him from selling it at an even $20 (like what Factorio previously sold for, however it was an actual good game that sold millions so that'd be why they could sell it for $0.01 more). It's beyond stupid to raise a stink about it, the first day of any sort of high school business class tells you businesses usually sell things in $XX.99 because having it that one cent cheaper makes it appear because $19.99 has people associate the price with $19 while if it was $20 it'd be associated with $20 so even if it's just a cent off $20, it appears to be cheaper.
>Wanted to set the price at $20 and increase the price but valve said no and listed it at $19.99 instead. Increasing the price as it exits early access isn't unheard of but he wanted to continually raise the price and THEN do sales. So increase it from $20 to $30 then put it on sale for 33% off back to $20 which is illegal in most countries.
This guy is beyond retarded. If he did what Starsector/Starfarer is doing there wouldn't be this big mess, they refuse to put the game on steam since it's unfinished and don't want an unfinished product on the store (although they said that like 6 years ago).

Mecha games have always been shit and always will be shit. There's rare exceptions like the SEED VS Gundam games (Fuck the later games in the series that let you summon allies as an attack, it spoils the gameplay). Units were pretty unique and you got good equipment options. The single player modes worked like G Gen where you could upgrade units or exchange them for new ones. You felt like you achieved something when you switched out one of your units for a better one. You even had to weigh up if you wanted to use a weaker unit in a battle to power it up more or if you wanted to keep a weaker aquatic unit over a better multi purpose unit. MS took damage and had to be repaired. You couldn't spam your same unit over and over, if a unit took 50% damage it would launch at 60% on the next mission or recover some percentage if left in the hangar. It was the peak of the series before it tried to pander to every single fan and do huge cross overs where everything is a Gundam and the Gundams balancing is based on popularity. RX-78-2 being worth more points than the Alex is just stupid.
Unless you want TBS with very pretty animation (but shallow gameplay) and terrible plots there just isn't much for us. Armored core was one of the best and From dropped it for Dark souls kiddies. Even the TBS have shit themselves where G Generations now hand you 4 uber units to start off rather than making you earn your units. PS1 G Gens were satisfying because you started with core fighters, Balls and GMs and would upgrade through the UC era until you ended up with a nice little unit of different era suitable MS. Then you went to the next Era and had to upgrade again. GM > Gundam > GM Custom > GP01 > MK-II > Prototype Zeta > Zeta > Prototype ZZ > ZZ > FAZZ > S Gundam Now it's Tornado Gundam > 00 > Quanta. It's not fun in a TBS to be given the best units in the game on a whim. I want to feel like I have some control over my units and that it's viable to use era suitable MS which can't lock on attack 5 enemies a turn.
I suspect it's dead now but Hawken was the best first person mech game I ever played. It felt like you were a mech pilot. The userbase was already small when I discovered it.

You are absolutely right. While I adore 4 and 4A, they really don't hold a candle to the PS1 and PS2 games. The variety just in building your mechs alone was insane. 4/A had that also but the streamlining they made to the mechanics also homogenized the gameplay-styles to a rather large degree.

As fucked as it is, I actually have the highest hopes for this game.

It's a player-driven sandbox, which sounds good on paper until you realize that the grind is insanely repetitive and the only interesting things that happen in the game are guild drama.
But wait, there's more. Unlike an actually playable sandbox MMO like Ultima Online or Shadowbane, this game goes the extra mile and truly apes EVE seemingly at every opportunity, which means you can't even control the progression of your character and bave to wait a specified real time number of hours to learn pilot skills. Even the UI aesthetics remind you of EVE. EVE is literally what accountants and lawyers play in their spare time to hone their kikery skills.

There were other things too. Enemy grunt variety dropped between the PS2 games and the next generation. They also had less interesting variants, even in V and VD, which is just fucking sad. They added more boss enemies, but those boss enemies weren't always fun to fight. The Sol Dios fight was painfully dull because of how easy it was; though, not cheesing the Sol Dios Orbit fight on hard makes up for that. The Land Crabs and Giga Bases were the same kind of thing as the original Sol Dios fight; they seem more like a spectacle or a set piece rather than a difficult enemy that becomes a spectacle through the fight.

It captures what the mecha are and how they should perform.
example is OYW mobile suits shouldn't be capable of extended aerial combat without a SFS like a dodai. OYW MS were slow and only really zipped around in space, even the gundam was incapable of unassisted flight. Until 0088 (zeta) no MS was capable of flight under it's own power, the gouf flight type barely counts as it was only really for brief periods and was inefficient at that .
With non MS games, again it needs to capture the feeling of the machines in the show. I forget what system it's on, but there's a game for Round vernian Vifam that even bothered with gravity wells

GBO worked, the problem was it devolved into "zooks and more zooks", MSGO started life as GBO on a larger scale, but a lot of ideas didn't make it (like co-op and the ability to use shit like Dopps and tin cods), the game is now a shadow of itself and loaded with 0096 shit like the RX-0 and Sinanju and to make matters worse, they've gone the PSO2 route and started permanent cross-overs with shit like X-bone gundam and SD Gundam (Musha Gundam and Musha Gundam Mk. II).
Gundam Breaker is fine, but the problem is when non-UC machines are introduced it becomes an issue, because outside OYW UC, everything is a power cluster fuck, with suits either able to fly under their own power or everyone from that series has some weird gundam type MS.
as for SD Gundam G Gen, yeah it sucks. I've been doing a zeon mook run and have gotten to chapter D using mainly zakus doms and 3 gelgoogs (one being char's). Using strictly Zeon pilots has been fun too, only newtype I have is lahlah and I stuck her in one of the other gelgoogs.

Just pirate Titanfall 2 and play the singleplayer, it'll keep you entertained for a bit.

Is the PC port worth a pirate?

The pc port is fucking amazing. I have both the ps3 and 360 hd collection versions, because I bought the 360 limited edition to rip the cd for anons on release night, and the ps3 one years later when I heard it had been patched and could run the mass battle smoothly. I'm on a mid range AMD build from 5 years ago and the PC port runs fucking flawlessly for me, to the degree where I've never been so consistently able to dodge that one ridiculously particle dense shot from anubis. Granted, I haven't tried the "EVEN MORE PARTICLES" mode or the VR meme mode, but the standard mode is far and away the best version of ZoE2. It's a shame they didn't package 1 with it, though.
