This game is great but there's two things that kill it for me. Stunlocking. It's like if you make the wrong move, every enemy on screen targets you at the same time and it'll take you a good minute to get back your footing. This is also when the game decides to pump the sound volume all the way to max and fill your ears with nothing but explosions.

Those gripes aside it plays like a space Monster Hunter except the monsters feel kind of useless and in the way. In face, I'm pretty sure you can ignore bunches of them and just rush to the checkpoints. (haven't experimented with that yet)

Anway, you get to pilot mechs which feels pretty good. Gattling guns, rocket launchers, lazers. This was the epitome of Xbox 360 gaming so get for that reason.

Yeah but I was referring more to the feel of the action.

"it plays like a space Monster Hunter"
It has some elements from it but the game is a linear mission-based third person shooter through and through.

The stunlocking isnt a problem I’ve ever had I dont know why some folk do.
Time your dodges. Your dodge roll is very great in lp thanks to the generous iframes.
