For people looking to buy this game now in 2025 since the sequel is coming very soon: Compared to Armored core 6: -This game focuses more on aerial combat (Yes. You can fly indefinitely). -You get to redivert energy to your boosters, arms, or shields plus you get a mirage system. -You can actually leave the mech and fight as a "human". -Music's pretty good imo -Giant bosses tend to usually be much bigger as compared to AC6. -Has a good number of characters which have faces/body models and while a good number of them seem like the typical anime tropes, they do tend to grow on you as you keep pushing through the story. -Cool mech designs, though it might suck for those who are looking for tank treads or spider legs since there are none in this game. -ICE CREAM

This is coming from someone with a disgusting amount of tolerance. You will genuinely be a happier person if you finish this game by skipping all the cutscenes. Gameplay is solid, multiplayer is fun! BUT THE STORY? The story will leave you with such a sour taste in your brain that you will ask for your money back even if you got the game for free. I recommend Daemon X Machina, but only when it's on sale.

When I first started playing, it really gave the impression of a watered down Armored core. Then it throws all these flamboyant characters that look like bargain-bin anime characters on screen all at once but there is no connection that I feel with them; at least not initially. I was beginning to think that I would have uninstalled it after playing a bit. But I kept going. There was something or things that kept pulling me in. The shooting and flying just felt right, and even satisfying. And as I played on new mechanics were being taught. Things like getting out of your mech, grabbing mech parts and weapons from downed enemies on the field and equipping them instantly, and how the game nudged you into tactfully dealing with the enemy. It didn't end there. The more parts I got the more I got invested in the customization; while the amount of data on screen was daunting at first glance, a little playing around made things easy. We can customize mechs, customize our character, and the whole cycle of finding new blueprints or parts to develop stronger one was addicting. This alone would have been enough to see the game halfway through, and experiment with all sorts of weapons and builds. But somehow the story got interesting midway. Once you learn who is who, the cast actually becomes interesting, some likeable even. The voice acting for certain characters is real good, even the dialogue. Coupled with the vibrant visuals and heavy use of shadows it gave a very pleasing game to look at. To top it all off, the soundtrack was good and memorable (atleast a few tracks). Where did the game fall? Near the end where the story just collapsed and character motives went everywhere. I was really interested in seeing what was what and learning more about the lore. But the game does little in exposition and throws all this sophistry (courtesy of the villain). I love the different mercenary groups and how we serve the different consortiums, but there is no 'choice' to be made on who to side with. Infact your character has little impact on anything and is written in such a way that 'you are the chosen one, so things will go exactly as foretold'. It was all linear. I'm still glad I got this game. Since the sequel is announced and this game was on discount, and i had this wish to play every mech game out there, this was a good buy. This isn't armored core, but it is still good, and even exceeds armored core in certain elements. Definitely a game to try for mech fans.

Pros: Decent gameplay, nice Mech part designs, good customization Cons: -Barely cohesive story -Pretty much all good equipment is stuck behind Co-Op Missions, none of which scale down when done solo. In a game that barely anyone plays anymore. -Horribly over-complicated stat system that has 0 in-game explanations. -No in-game viewable drop table for a game which relies on random drops. If you are REALLY itching for anime Mecha games with a barely coherent story, get it. If not, pass.
